“I could say a million positive things about Tracy but they all boil down to one thing: she is CONSIDERATE. Even before our stay, she asked me a number of questions about my Brooke than only an experienced, mindful, and compassionate dog lover would ask. Right off the bat, I knew she would care for my dog the way she deserved, and it only got better from there. From consistent picture and video updates to staying stocked with my pup's favorite treats, Tracy is truly 1 of 1 when it comes to dog sitters. Could not ask for anyone better!”
“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!”
“Amanda and her family treated Appa so well! She sent so many cute pictures, I could tell they totally spoiled him during his visit. We would love to use them in the future!”
“Claire helped me out so much! This was my first time using Rover and she made it stress free! She updated me everyday and when I had traveling problems she was able to take Milo for another night without any hesitation 🙂 Milo even had trouble leaving when I picked him up he had so much fun with her. 1000% recommend to anyone!!”
“Betsy took wonderful care of Apollo! I received multiple updates and photos daily of Apollo and he cozied up to Betsy just like he does with me. It was so nice to know Apollo was being so well taken care of! Thank you Betsy!!!”
“Caleb is a fantastic dog sitter. He watched our 2 dogs for a week and wouldn't hesitate to use him again. He clearly cares about dogs and does a great job with communication and preparing his house for guests. His own dog is great and got along well with our 2 dogs, one of which is a sergeant in the fun police. We had a odd schedule switch in the middle of our trip and Caleb was flexible in accommodating schedule changes. He kept us up to date and overall did a great job.”
“Rozalyn is our new primary dog-sitter. We finally found out sitter who share the same vision! Rosalyn is wonderful and caring! She took really good care of Kit, our senior chihuahua mix and included her in the family. Kit comes home happy and content!”
“Dave was very accommodating and flexible when it came to the dropoff/pickup times for my cat (Waddles). He even allowed me to extend her stay by one night due to some last minute changes on my end, which was greatly appreciated! He sent some updates and pictures of Waddles throughout the weekend to let me know she was doing ok, and just overall seemed to be a good caretaker.”
“Mika and andrew were fabulous! They updated us daily with pictures and videos of Galaxy. They even treated her to a live music concert! They were very easy to work with and galaxy had a great time. We felt like she had a little family away from family.”
“Sarah took great care of my dog. I got lots of photos of my dog having the time of her life. She kept me informed of how well my dog was doing and loved on my dog. Sarah took great attention to my dog’s special diet and her behavior problems which helped me sleep well.”
“Lauren and James were phenomenal! Spent good time with my dog and send updated photos and videos. Very loving couple. I would recommend them if you are in a need for boarding.”
“Kyle did a great job caring for our pup while we were out of town and was extremely prompt with all of our correspondence; including in our request to watch our pup, which really put us at ease! I definitely recommend him! :)”
“Jailene was fantastic with my dog Riley. She sent regular update, photos, and videos. He stayed over the 4th of July holiday, and Jailene had great questions beforehand to make sure he was comfortable.”
“I couldn’t have picked a better sitter for Stella. I knew she was in good hands when I could see the joy and excitement they just had meeting her. I received excellent updates throughout the week along with pictures. Jon was super accommodating with all of my and Stella’s needs. I would totally recommend them to anyone!”
“Katie and her family were amazing. They made our senior dog feel part of their family. They gave medication and attended to all his needs. Not only was he cared for but he was made part of their family. We would always recommend Katie and her family to watch our dog. She sent updates all the time and pictures of our dog having a great time with the family. Truly an amazing experience.”
“Andrea was communicative and we knew we could trust her with our dogs the moment we met her! She was very flexible, which we appreciated as we were looking for a rover while in town for a long weekend. Our dogs had a blast! If we are ever back in Minneapolis with our dogs, wr will definitely reach out to her again.”
“Alvin is treated like a prince, pampered and spoiled. Elsa has investigated why his teeth are bad and purchased a syringe to improve his water intake. I love receiving pictures and films of Alvin playing with Elsa & Nick, and enjoying new friends. I appreciate that they were able to train him to use the stairs, and provide a bath. I could not ask for better care. I am able to relax knowing Alvin is enjoying a 5 star vacation.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - South Saint Paul
Emily, Tim and family did a great job taking care of Nieve. It was a last minute booking and I was really appreciative of them stepping up. Solid communication especially when Nieve wasn’t feeling well and Emily had to provide some extra care. Thank you so much.
Simon is GREAT! Not only did he take my last minute request, but he communicated the entire time! Simon sent pics and videos, which kept my mind at ease. Best of all, Muffin returned healthy and very happy! I could tell he had THE TIME OF HIS LIFE with Simon! Thank you, Sir, for taking such great care of my baby! We found the BEST sitter in the Twin Cities! Highly recommend!
Jon and Natalie were so wonderful with our three very demanding pups! They followed all our directions and the pups had a great time. I could tell they really care about all the animals they watch and treat them like their own. We will definitely book with them again!
Our dog Louie is occasionally leash reactive and aggressive with other dogs. He also was adjusting to life changes at our house and has some anxiety. We needed a sitter who could meet his needs and Bethany was great! She was also available on short notice and a great communicator both prior to and during his stay. We absolutely will use her again and know Louie had a great time!
Angela did a great job with Yoda. The thunderstorms and fireworks made him a bit nervous, but Angela handled it well, and he did fine. She was very responsive, kept us updated with pictures, and was quite flexible and went out of her way to accommodate a change in our pickup plans. We would certainly have Yoda stay with her again.
Jennifer was absolutely terrific! She cared for our mini-goldendoodle as we would have and beyond. We were sent updates and felt very at ease with leaving her for the first time. She even took our storm frightened dog into the basement for a cuddle and nap during a thunderstorm. Would definitely have Jennifer look after our dog again!
Leo had a great stay with Ashley and her family. We did a meet and greet and her dogs allowed Leo to be with them immediately. As best I can tell Leo loved his time there- he came home and was his ordinary self. Ashley had noticed him shaking at one point during his stay and then that it was raining- so Leo needed his med to calm down. It seemed like Leo was in a home were he was loved and accepted and comfortable. We are glad to have found Ashley.

There are 2,608 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in South Saint Paul. About 91% of South 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.

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.
