About: I have hands-on experience caring for all kinds of animals, and I genuinely love making sure every pet feels safe, happy, and loved! I worked at a doggy daycare during the summer, where I cared for dogs of different breeds, sizes, and personalities. I was trained to bathe dogs, keep them entertained with playtime and activities like the kiddie pool, and safely respond to dog conflicts when they occurred. I also made an effort to learn each dog’s name and their owner’s name so I could provide more personal, attentive care. Growing up with a dog, I also have experience with daily walks and giving pets the attention and exercise they need. I’ve cared for my sister’s cats for extended periods, and I’ve also owned hamsters, gerbils, and a snake. I currently have a guinea pig, so I’m comfortable caring for animals beyond just dogs and cats, too! What sets me apart is my hands-on experience, patience, and genuine love for animals. Whether your pet wants to play, go for a walk, enjoy a bath, or simply cuddle and relax, I’m happy to meet their individual needs and treat them with the same care and affection I would give my own pets. I am currently a full time student in college. I have a consistent class schedule so I am able to provide care throughout the morning, day, and some evenings. I am also flexible on the weekends, willing to provide care upon further connection of needs! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities! I believe every animal deserves a safe, loving environment where they can feel comfortable and get plenty of attention. At my apartment building, I have access to a fenced-in dog park where dogs can enjoy outdoor playtime and exercise in a secure area while supervised. When caring for pets in their own homes, I will my best to maintain their normal routines, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions provided by their owners. I understand that pets can feel more comfortable in familiar surroundings, so I will make sure to give them patience, attention, and time to adjust. I’m also happy to provide plenty of cuddles, enrichment, and companionship so they don’t feel lonely while you’re away. My experience working at a doggy daycare taught me the importance of supervising animals, paying attention to their behavior, and recognizing that every pet has a different personality and comfort level. I take instructions seriously, respect each owner’s home, and always prioritize keeping pets safe, happy, and well cared for.

About: I have taken care of pets for as long as I can remember. I have experience with dogs, cats, hamsters, rabbits, and fish. I like to make sure the animal is having as much fun as I am. I am currently job hunting until I start college during the second semester so I am free all hours. I can update you as often as you want about your pets. Every hour to once a day it's up to you. I have job shadowed at a vet clinic a few times so I put the animals safety first. I won't pressure or force your animal to do something they don't want. This means that I will spend time with them so they trust me to attach a lesh to go outside. I don't prefer to handle animals at night because they tend to be more cautious but I can if needed.

About: I have taken care of all types of animals since the age of 12. Most recently I have been working for almost a year at a dog boarding facility. I also own 3 dogs and 2 cats who have always been around other animals and are all up to date on vaccines I work from home and work Friday and Saturday during the mornings. If I am able to help I will definitely help in any way I can just message me I have a fenced yard and plenty of room for playing.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Saint Peter is $36 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $28 and $39 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 77 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Saint Peter. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.

98% of sitters in Saint Peter 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 Peter home-away-from-home, 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 Peter.

Tip: 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 Peter 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 , 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 .

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.
