“We could not have asked for a better first experience finding care for our dog . Rebekah and her husband were so personable and seemed genuinely excited and happy to host our Nelly. Rebekah sent updates throughout the stay along with pictures . We will definitely hire her again ! Thank you for taking such good care of our furry family member!”
“Christina and Jeremy were awesome! Super responsive and made us feel very comfortable leaving our puppy with them. They updated us with photos so we knew that our guy was doing well. Couldn’t be happier with them and the service they provided. We will definitely be a repeat customer.”
“Brenda and Alvin were the perfect fit our dog. We feel lucky to have found them on Rover. They are former dog owners and clearly enjoy them. The daily photo’s they sent and text updates left us at ease, able to enjoy our vacation without worry. We’ll definitely reach out again.”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! From the moment we contacted Britni, we felt completely comfortable leaving our dog in her care. Britni and her whole family were incredibly kind, reliable, attentive, and kept us updated throughout our time away, which gave us such peace of mind. Our dog was so happy and well cared for, and it was obvious that they genuinely love animals. Everything was handled perfectly, and we came home to a very happy, relaxed doggie. We would 100% recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and dependable dog sitter. We’ll definitely be booking with them again! Thanks again Britni ❤️🐾”
“Tammy and her husband were wonderful dog sitters for my two miniature schnauzers! It was a “staycation” beyond compare. They loved romping in the lovely fenced in back yard and were lucky to receive 100 percent of their love and attention, with Tammy having her “one customer at a time only” rule. I received lots of happy pictures of my dogs enjoying their time and getting lots of snuggles. Tammy was super at her communication and I so appreciate her understanding when we got stuck in traffic on the way back from our trip. The dogs were in great shape and quite content when we arrived for pickup. All of their gear and food was thoughtfully packed and ready to go. Thanks so much Tammy for your professional care and kindness ~ the girls will be excited to return!😁☺️”
“It is the third time Amanda watches Pierce for us! She always send pictures of him, keep us posted on he is doing. Definitely recommend her for taking care of your dog! Thank you again Amanda!”
“Alisha and Cameron took such great care of our dog Bear! He was so happy at their house. They provided lots of updates and pictures. I know he got lots of love. They have been our favorite Rover family to date!”
“This is the first time I have ever left my dog, Becky made me so comfortable about it. She had extra kennels, toys, and leashes so I didn’t have to worry about bringing anything but food! She sent me pictures throughout his stay and he came home completely exhausted from having so much fun! I would definitely recommend her and will be using her again!”
“Our finicky Chesapeake Bay Retriever thoroughly enjoyed her overnight stay. We look forward to having Tom take care of our pet when we next go out of town. He seems to enjoy and understand dogs.”
“Amy was great to work with! She replied to me immediately every time, provided pictures of my dog Stella, and was very friendly! I will definitely keep her in mind for future dog boarding needs.”
“Anna's place is quickly becoming a home away from home for our pup. She took wonderful care of him and was incredibly accommodating and understanding when our travel plans were delayed due to the weather. We highly recommend Anna!”
“My little dog felt so comfortable there. As we were approaching the house, I could see he was happy to have the door open, and he immediately walked in and felt right at home. Kathryn has a house full of love and two little dogs that are both welcoming also thank you for taking care of my dog”
“Kay goes above and beyond. I really appreciate her attentiveness while caring for our senior, hospice dog. I also appreciate that someone will be home while he is in her care. We also really enjoy seeing her family and chatting during drop off and pick up.”
“Sophan was great! Very easy to communicate with, very clear on setting expectations and understanding from us what our dog might need or be used to. This was our first time using Rover with our rescue dog, and we had no issues at all. Our pup warmed up to her right away and by the end of her stay was already a bit attached. Thank you Sophan!”
“I highly recommend Patricia and Patrick B.! I spent a lot of time searching for the right boarding for Ajax because he isn't kennel-trained and can be unpredictable with other dogs, so finding a safe, comfortable environment was my top priority. Patricia and Patrick were professional, incredibly welcoming, and their focus on safety put me at ease immediately. Ajax loved the place from the very first visit, and seeing how affectionate he was toward Patricia and Patrick when I picked him up spoke volumes about the care he received. There is no better way to show how much love they gave him—we will definitely be booking with them again!"”
“Maureen was so accommodating with our last minute search for care for our 9 month old puppy. Being our first time leaving Addie overnight, we were somewhat apprehensive. However, Maureen put our mind at ease with listening to our needs and requests, her reassurance, and in providing the care we wanted our puppy to have. The texts throughout the day and pictures of Addie reassured us we made the right decision in choosing Maureen. We will definitely contact her in the future when the need arises.”
“We couldn’t recommend Maria enough!! Our Walter had the best time with her. He came home and is exhausted from all the fun he had, lounging around and resting, the moment we got into our house! It’s clear that he wasn’t stuck in the house the entire time, like we’ve experienced before. She also sent so many pictures of Walter and all of his new puppy friends outside running around! We already have our next stay booked with Maria! ❤️”

96% of sitters in Saint Francis can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Saint Francis home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Saint Francis.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Saint Francis sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in MN ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
