“Andrea is amazing! She is very open to our schedule and sends a bunch of pictures of our puppy having a wonderful time with her family, we know that Monty is in great hands when Andrea is watching him!!”
“Melissa and her family took wonderful care of my dog over the weekend! She updated me with lots of photos and video of her having a blast. I would recommend Melissa highly.”
“We are so grateful for Brandi and her family! They took care of our dog for 15 days while we were on vacation. Brandi sent us lots of pictures and it was apparent that our dog was well-loved! They took her on walks, snuggled her, and even bought her a Christmas gift from Santa! Brandi was very quick to respond and was very accomodating. We will definitely have Brandi and her family watch our dog again!”
“Rene was terrific with my dog King. He had never been anywhere overnight before except with family members so I was a little nervous because he doesn’t do well with strangers. Rene won his confidence and mine. Thanks Rene.”
“Regan did a FANTASTIC job watching my Molly! Molly can be a little timid meeting new people but immediately became friends with Regan. She loved running around the backyard with Luna and Maya. It was so comforting knowing that Molly was not only being taking care of but also being loved like one of her own pets. I received daily updates and pictures of all the fun Molly was having. I will definitely use Regan again!”
“Darian was amazing. We used her for a 2 week vacation and we are so grateful to have found her. We will definitely use her again. She taught our puppy how to walk on a leash, which he was struggling with before we dropped him off. We received daily updates, photos and videos, and never had to worry about him being cared for, loved on and played with.”
“Very flexible and understanding. I had a significant flight delay and couldn't pick up as planned and she allowed me to pick up the next AM with no issue. Prompt communications!”
“Jared and Tayler were great with Fifer! They sent us pictures and she seemed to be loving it there! We felt super comfortable and never worried about her on our 10 day trip! We knew she was in good hands!”
“Such a wonderful family and beautiful home! My pup was very very happy here and I know she was treated just like family. We are very glad we found Emily, and we will definitely be repeat customers.”
“Natalie was extremely responsive, took exceptional care of our dog, gave him lots of love, and gave us regular updates. Thank you so much! We will definitely reach out again when we need help!”
“Bethany and her family were wonderful with my 2 dogs. They came home so tired which was a great sign, as they were worn out. It was so wonderful to receive regular updates, gave me a real peace of mind. As well as great communication. We will definitely be a repeat customer! In fact we have booked again in a couple of weeks.”
About: Hello! I’m Ross. I’ve had pets my whole life, and dogs for the last several years! I’m an avid upland hunter and have two Labrador Retrievers, one that I hunt with and the other one failed bird dog school! Oh well, she’s a great family dog! I have ample experience handling dogs and have a unique understanding into their behavior having trained a hunting dog and working with him in the field. We are a family of 5 that love dogs and would love to give your family member a fun and relaxing stay in our home. I work from my home, running my own brand and design business, which gives me ample time to exercise and potty break your dog! My labs love to play and love all dogs, and are always looking for new friends! Let me know if we can accommodate you! I currently run my own business from my home, so I have ample time to accommodate your dog’s schedule with regular potty breaks and eating or medication times. I have 2 friendly Labrador Retrievers that love to play and get along with any and all friendly dogs! Our yard is not fenced, but if your dog is a risk for running or is skiddish we will use a leash at all times for walks and potty breaks.
“Piper had an amazing time at Amy’s house and came home nice and tired!! Amy also provided updates daily with cute pictures. Piper was able to play with her dog and young kids and she also had an invisible fence collar that Piper could wear so she wouldn’t run out of the yard. Will be using Amy again!”
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 trying different jobs so my schedule is always changing. I am split between vet tech and a more wildlife field of study. 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’ve always had a love for animals, so much so that I turned it into a career. I’ve been a vet tech for about 15 years and have been caring for animals the majority of my life. I can administer medications if your pet has been prescribed any. And if anything seems out of the ordinary I will notify you right away. The care and wellbeing of your pet is my priority. I am currently working full time during the week with every other Friday off. The weekends, and every other Friday I am at home and we can arrange a time for pick up and drop off that works for you. When playing outside your pet will we supervised closely and will not be left outside alone. We do have a fence on the back side of our yard. And we live in a cul-de-sac, so no need to worry about being on a busy road.
“Makenzie did such a great job watching Mack. She sent plenty of updates and pictures and overall took great care of him. He came home very happy and tired from lots of play. Highly recommend!”
“Jesse (13 y/o cavalier) had a great time and was very well taken care of, we picked up a very happy dog after a couple days away! Kristin was very communicative and shared updates, it is clear they care deeply for their guest critters.”

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.
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.
95% of sitters in Silver Lake 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 Silver Lake 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 Silver Lake.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Silver Lake. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Silver Lake 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
