“We had a wonderful experience with Kimberly & John! Great communication and we loved all the pictures of Oakley having fun while we were gone. He seemed to fit right in and was so well loved. We'll be booking again!”
“I cannot say enough wonderful things about Tawny! From the moment we met, I knew Murphy was in great hands. Tawny is the epitome of what you want in a dog sitter: kind, attentive, and incredibly loving. She has a natural affinity with dogs and it's clear she genuinely cares about their well-being. She was patient and gave him the time he needed to feel comfortable. Throughout Murphy’s stay, Tawny and her Daughters took Murphy on long walks, played his favorite games. Her home is welcoming and dog-friendly, and she made sure Murphy felt like part of her family. It's evident that she goes above and beyond to ensure her furry guests are happy and healthy. I highly recommend Tawny to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate, and enthusiastic dog sitter. Murphy came home relaxed, happy, and even better behaved! Tawny is a true gem on Rover, and we can't wait to book with her again. Thank you, Tawny, for treating Murphy with so much love and care!”

“We feel very lucky to have found Cassandra and Eric through the Rover to board our puppy while we were out of town. They were very flexible and accommodating to our requests, kind, loving, patient and attentive, and their entire family did an amazing job taking care of our puppy. The communication was great, we received updates every day with a lot of pictures and videos, and our puppy always looked very happy, playful and comfortable at their home. We are very grateful! Highly recommend!”
“Amazing Care for Our High-Energy Doodle Puppy! We couldn't have been happier with the care Jeremiah provided for our energetic doodle puppy during his three-day stay. Finding someone who can handle a young, high-energy dog is crucial, and Jeremiah exceeded all our expectations. Their home is incredibly clean and nice, and the fenced backyard was perfect for our puppy to burn off steam safely. It was a huge bonus that they have their own sweet doodle—our guy had an absolute blast making a new friend and getting constant companionship! Communication was prompt and reassuring. We received updates and very cute pictures via text throughout the stay, which made us feel completely at ease. They took him on multiple walks and ensured he received excellent care and attention the entire time. Overall, our puppy truly enjoyed his stay, and we are totally satisfied. We will absolutely be repeat customers and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a loving, responsible, and fun home for their dog!”
“Julie and Ben took care of our Golden for four days. We had to change our plans at the last minute and they took our dog and helped us tremendously with giving her medication. They were so flexible, kind and caring and took such good care of our pup. They sent us daily updates and photos which was greatly appreciated. Our dog returned home happy. We would definitely reach out to them again! Thank you so much Julie & Ben!”
“Wes was wonderful with our dog Zoey! Zoey is a senior dog and needs a bit of extra attention, and Wes and his family gave her just that! Received photos throughout her stay, would definitely recommend & use again in the future.”
“My pups had a great time staying with Nickolai and his family! He even set up a little pool for when it was really hot out. It looked like the dogs had an absolute blast! He sent plenty of updates and pictures throughout their stay, which was so reassuring while I was away. He was also incredibly responsive and always quick to communicate.”

Stephanie is wonderful! I really appreciated her communication skills—she was always quick to reply and kept us updated. It was clear that our dog had a great time staying at her house for 7 nights. She even came home brushed better than how I sent her, which is saying a lot considering our dog has a thick, curly coat! The pickup and drop-off went smoothly, and Stephanie was so thoughtful about letting us come over a few times before our trip so Khola could get familiar with her home. That really helped us feel comfortable leaving her. We will definitely reach out to Stephanie again the next time we need an amazing, compassionate pet sitter. We highly recommend her!
Highly recommend Katie and Zach for dog sitting!! We have gone through them several times over the past 5 years for various trips and most recently for a 2wk vacation. They have done an excellent job watching our 16lb 10yr old jack Russell mix. She always leaves just as happy as when she arrived and we get lots of pictures and updates which always makes leaving her behind easier.
Chrissy was a great sitter for our cat, Nacho. He gets very stressed when we have to board him and this was the first time he stayed with a sitter. He came home and was his usual self... and I actually think he misses her. :) She also sent us a picture of him everyday to reassure us he was doing great. Thank you for keeping him happy and safe!
Jenn is amazing! She was there when another Rover sitter canceled on us a week before we were scheduled to go on vacation. She communicates extremely well and sent us a couple of photos while we were away. Thank you Jenn! We greatly appreciate your caring for our dog! <3
As always, Sarah is the best. She has love our dogs like they were her own. She sends frequent updates and photos to let us know how our girl is doing. She was wonderful in introducing Woody to our Sweet P and I had every confidence that Sarah was the right one to help socialize our puppy. Sarah is calm and knowledgeable and she is our #1 for our Twin Cities sitting needs!!

The average cost for Pet Boarding in Shakopee on Rover is $46.62 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

There are 2,512 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Shakopee. About 91% of Shakopee 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.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. 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 personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
