“Rachel is a great sitter for our dog. She texts us photos and updates. We have used her for short and long trips. We often plan our trips around when Rachel is free.”
“Claire took such good care of our girl! She was super accommodating and sent photos throughout her stay. We will totally book with Claire again and can’t recommend her enough!”
“I felt very comfortable leaving my fur babies (2 Great Pyrenees) with Deborah while we were on vacation. You can tell that she has a lot of experience with dog care, and she was very attentive and caring with them. The dogs loved her deck and fenced in yard, and we loved the frequent updates and photos. We will definitely be reaching out to Deborah for dog boarding during our next getaway.”
“This is the place to bring your pups for great care, a fun backyard and awesome support. Do not hesitate to book, your dog(s) will have a blast. They are willing to work with all types of dogs, so check in with them! Thank you!”
“Stan is such a kind and attentive sitter and made our dog feel right at home. He asked great questions before, sent wonderful updates, and took our pup on lots of walks and gave him lots of play time outside. His yard and home are a great location, and his two dogs were awesome companions. Would highly recommend!”
“Debbie and her family were amazing! They were excellent with Bulut. Debbie sent a lot of pictures and videos which we appreciated. Bulut was really happy with the stay, went on a lot walks and lots of backyard play time. We couldn’t recommend them enough!”
“Kristen and her family are wonderful. Leo was happy to come home but seemed to have bene well cared for. There's love and activity at their home. We are glad they are close by.”
“Catherine was absolutely wonderful! This was Zuri's first time staying away from home and Catherine went above and beyond to make her feel at home. Catherine sent daily updates and photos, which were much appreciated, and lots of special treats and special love were given. Zuri also enjoyed having another dog to play with, as she is an only child. I would highly recommend Catherine and will definitely use her again.”
“Friendly, good pictures and updates! Our dog Ripley can just be nervous and scared but I was happy to see another puppy for her to play with. She seems to trust easier when another dog are around and relaxes quickly.”
“Michelle was wonderful! She was very communicative and shared updates and pictures of our bulldog. She was proactive (and responsive) and asked questions about his care needs, so that she would know about any of his quirks in order to take care of him while we were away. Our dog had a great time at her house & was a happy and healthy guy when we came to pick him up. We highly recommend her services and were happy to have utilized her services.”
“Takenya was amazing! My dog had some behavior issues come up and she handled them perfectly! Excellent communication and plenty of photos and videos to share to ensure I didn’t stress about the issues. These really helped me enjoy the work conference I was attending without stressing :) Mountain was a very happy camper after staying with Takenya. Her home was very clean and quiet!”
About: Hi! I’m a caring, dependable, and attentive pet sitter with firsthand experience caring for my family cat, Cody. Although Cody no longer lives with me, caring for him gave me valuable experience understanding a cat’s routines, personality, and individual needs. I’ve also been an experienced cat and dog sitter for friends and family while they’ve been out of town. I’m comfortable following feeding schedules, providing playtime and companionship, taking dogs for walks, and making sure pets feel safe, happy, and comfortable while you’re away. I also live near a great local park that’s perfect for dog walks and getting some fresh air and exercise! I’d love to give your pup a fun, safe walk while you’re busy or away. I treat every pet in my care with patience, kindness, and plenty of attention. My goal is to make sure your pets feel cared for and comfortable while giving you peace of mind I work part-time, so I’m home most of the day and have a flexible schedule for pet care. I’m available for regular daytime check-ins, feeding, playtime, litter box care, and companionship. I can also adjust my schedule around your pet’s specific routine and needs I live in a quiet, fairly empty apartment in St. Paul with plenty of open space. Since there isn’t much furniture or clutter, there are limited potential hazards for pets. I keep my home clean, calm, and secure so cats can safely explore, relax, and feel comfortable during their stay. There is nearby walkable park as well
About: Our beloved dog passed away earlier this year. Our family would love to take care of your furry friend in our home before we get another dog in the future. We are mostly away from home during the weekdays and home on the weekends, so your dog would need to be OK being home alone for 8-10 hours if it’s during the week. We have a fully fenced backyard and very walkable neighborhood. Multi-story home with wood, tile and carpeted floors. We have many dog toys and two kids who will love to play with your pet!
“Crosby came home exhausted, which was needed as we were tired from our trip! He had plenty of outside time and play time. Really appreciated that Jessica has a fence! Will book with her again!”
“Luke was a great dog sitter for Tanner and Bruno. He sent pictures provided updates and was really looking out for the dogs. Would definitely hire him again. Thank you!!”
“Absolutely amazing experience! Communication was prompt, worked with me when initial plans changed and sent some really great pictures of my dogs blending with them. Highly recommended and will definitely rebook!”
“Julie and her family were amazing with our two little puppies. She sent lots of updates and ask questions when needed. The puppies were sad to come home but I am so glad to have them home safe and well cared for why we were enjoying our vacation. Her kids were amazing with them and would definitely use them again in the future.”
“Our 10 month old pup stayed with Dawn family and other small size pups over the Christmas. I feel so happy I found Dawn because she is so knowledgeable and care and love for the dogs. She constantly send me update and pics and videos of my dog and answering any questions real fast. This place beats other boarding place ten blocks away! This will be our go to place for sitting when we are out of town in the future”
“Dynette is an amazing sitter! She took such loving care of our dog, Calvin, while we were away, sharing frequent updates and photos so we knew he was doing well. It was so reassuring knowing Calvin was in such good hands while we were gone. We highly recommend Dynette and will definitely book with her again next time we need a sitter.”

Bridget took great care of Mazie while I was away. She kept me updated, sent pictures, and was always responsive when I reached out. Mazie got walked and playtime in Bridget’s garden, and I could tell she was well cared for. Bridget was also very flexible with my travel schedule. My flight got in late and I wasn’t able to pick Mazie up until nearly midnight, and she was very accommodating and friendly about it. I would definitely feel comfortable leaving Mazie with Bridget again.
Kristina is great! Our dogs were very comfortable and relaxed in her home. She provided daily updates and responded quickly to any questions we had. This was our first time using Rover and it’s so much better than boarding at a kennel. It was refreshing to pick up our dogs and see they were not stressed out or anxious.
I felt so at ease after meeting Michelle. Our pup is an almost 2 year old rescue that we adopted 4 months ago. This was the first time leaving here other than an intro at a daycare center. Michelle is friendly and seems to really love dogs. She was very diligent about learning our dog’s routine, likes and dislikes. Our pup seemed happy when we picked her up, and even taking her back for her first “over night” stay our pup seemed secure in being left in Michelle’s care.
Our dog was happy and safe for 3 nights at Carrie's! She is a dog-loving person who works at home -- companionship for dogs guaranteed! Also, Carrie loves to take neighborhood walks and walk at a nearby lake, so our dog benefitted from those outside jaunts. We are so glad to have Carrie nearby!
Roberta was genuinely a life saver for me this week. My cat was recovering from a surgery and while she was with Roberta, she got sick again. Roberta kept me up to date and without a question took her into the vet so that they could make sure everything was okay. I am so so grateful for Roberta’s help and care for my baby!

There are 2,660 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Saint Paul. About 92% of Saint Paul sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.

You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

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 pet, 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.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
