About: I have raised several dogs from the time they were puppies. I have done obedience training with all of them. I truly enjoy the loyal companionship of a dog. I am currently on SSDI, so I am retired. I do have a karaoke DJ business, but that usually only takes me away one or two nights a month. I currently have a French bulldog who is fixed and he is very friendly with other dogs. I also have two cats, but I have the ability to separate them from the rest of the house.
“Rebekah was amazing watching our pup and we loved all the pictures she took. Her pup was so sweet and played so well with ours. Rebekah was so easy to communicate and coordinate with!”
“Sophia was very kind and welcoming of our pup. We received pics and updates throughout her doggy daycare experience. I felt that our dog was well cared for and loved during her stay.”
“Thomas and his wife Sue are wonderful with my Nala! They were the second people that we did a meet and greet with and I knew immediately it was the right fit. Their dog Ramone thinks that my Nala is his girlfriend and they do get along so well. They run and run all day. When I drop Nala off, she gets so excited and when I pick her up she is still happy to see me. Candace”
“Alicia was great. She sent me pics of Lacie showing me that she was feeling comfortable and enjoying her stay. She took her outside for a while as well! Thanks Alicia for making Lacie feel comfortable!”
“Kristi was super nice to host my puppy with such short notice! And she showed how much she cares since the very beginning, introducing him to the other dogs to sure everything would run smoothly. She’s a very nice lady, very communicative, took some nice pictures and took really good care of my puppy! He loved his stay and her other dogs, came back home happy and tired. I definitely recommend her!”
“Hannah was great with our puppy! Sent photos shortly after I left l, which put my mind at ease since this was the first time bringing him there. He seemed to love her and his time there! Will definitely use her again! She was also flexible with my pickup time as it shifted due to work. Thank you Hannah!”
About: I have many years of experience with dogs and have trained my own dogs my entire life! My experience ranges from small to giant breed dogs and I am comfortable with most any pet! My home has a fenced in backyard with turf grass and lots of toys to play with for your daycare or boarding needs! I also sanitize the toys and yard with a pet safe spray between pets to ensure everyone stays as healthy as possible! If you would like your fur baby to have more exercise than the fenced in yard we can always happily add on a walk to go see the neighborhood sites! I work from home and am free to provide lots of snuggles and playtime with your fur baby throughout the day! My job is very flexible and I also am able to do drop in visits in your own home as often as you may need and can stop by to go on as many walks per day as you wish! I am comfortable giving medications or giving extra care your pet may need! They are in great hands with me and are always treated as if they were my own! Since my days are so open and flexible I am able to accommodate almost anything you may need, just ask! Aside from a quick errand here or there, I am home and able to give constant attention while your pet(s) are in my care. I do have crates available if your dog needs to be crated if I need to run somewhere, or I am perfectly comfortable leaving them out to roam and snooze on the couch if that’s what they are used to! Aside from the backyard being fenced, I love to go on walks and give all the snuggles! My schedule is very easy to move around and I am not tied to the computer all day, so running to give potty breaks at your home or take your fur baby for a walk is always a task I love to make time for!
“I was gifted a female Husky and knew that she needed a pack. I started searching Rover and we found Linnea about 6 months ago. She is attentive to my girl Kimbers needs, great with multiple dogs and she has been flexible with my schedule. Both Kimber and myself are very lucky to be part of Linneas pack!”
“Christina took good care of my dogs! I was a little nervous about leaving them, but we met the week before to see her and the yard, so when it was time to leave them there, they went with Christina easily. She walked them and sent me pictures during the day :)”
“Dropped Teddy off for a couple hours of daycare with Lisa. She was so kind to him, took him for a nice walk and gave him lots of pets. He seemed to have loved his stay. Would definitely recommend Lisa to others seeking quality pet care!”
“Melissa did an amazing job of caring for our 16 week old puppy Enzo. Her communication was great and made us so comfortable that Enzo was in good hands. Will be booking with here the next time we need care!”
“Terry and Samantha took great care of my puppy. They had her for 6 hours and were attentive to all the needs that a small puppy has. I felt very comfortable leaving Bettie with them and will definitely use them again.”
About: I have over 15 years of experience caring for dogs of various breeds and sizes, making sure they receive the attention, exercise, and love they need. My experience includes dog walking, sitting, feeding, administering medications, and providing basic training. I am skilled in reading body language and am patient and compassionate when it comes to each dog’s unique needs. Whether it’s an energetic puppy needing a long walk or a senior dog requiring more gentle care, I am able to fit the dog’s individual requirements. I’m also experienced in managing feeding schedules, maintaining a safe environment, and ensuring pets are engaged and happy while their owners are away. I am currently taking College classes online. I’m pretty open to any anytime during the day throughout the week! I am also able to work early morning or late nights too. I understand how important it is to ensure a safe, comfortable, and trustworthy environment for your pet. Whether I’m caring for them in my own home or yours, I prioritize their well being at all times. I have a fenced in yard with plenty of room! I create a secure and comfortable space for them. My home is pet friendly and pet proofed, with all potential hazards removed to ensure your pet’s safety. I have 2 friendly dogs a golden doodle and shit tzu that get along great with anyone. I believe in building trust with both you and your pet!
“Anna is fabulous! We have a new puppy and she has watched him all week for us while we are at work! She makes sure he gets playtime with her dogs and naps in too! She sends lots of updates and pictures throughout the day, which we love! She has done great with helping his potty training and keeping us informed with his rover card each day!”
“David is great and so knowledgeable about dogs. My dog is 13 and has never been boarded before. We are doing trials with Jasper to get him ready for an extended stay in November! You can see David's love for animals!”
About: I currently have 2 dogs and 1 cat in my home and love Dachshunds. We also have a lab mix who loves to play with all dogs one of the doxies loves all dogs as well. They are both puppies still. We live on 5 wooded acres, and have a separate fenced area to let the dogs play. I have grown up with dogs my whole life and have also had a dog in my household. Dogs are more than just pets to me they are are family and I considered them my children. I will care for tour dogs as if they were my own and they will make a new friend while they stay over and play the weekend away! I am working for home, so I have plenty of time to attend to all the dogs needs, feeding, outside time, playing. I usually take my dogs to the dog park every morning for our mile walk and during the summer months we try to go to the lake for a swim a couple times a week. I have 2 fur babies, they are very playful and love all dogs. I treat all dogs as if they are my own, I love them all!

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Saint Francis commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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.
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 .
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 1,238 sitters in Saint Francis, 85% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
