“Great experience with Emily and family. We rarely use dog sitters we do not know and I was nervous about how Maisy would do. Emily was a great communicator and very responsive. She kept me updated with pictures and texts. Maisy seemed to have a great time with their sweet dog and lovely family. Huge backyard to play in! Maisy came home happy and tired out! Thank you!”

We found Simon at the last minute when another sitter cancelled on us. I have a three month old puppy and was so hesitant to leave him but Simon sent pics and videos everyday several times and that really eased my mind. We saw that our puppy was playing with another puppy and having a great time. I will for sure be booking with Simon again. He lives what he does and it shows.
We’ve used Bethany twice and are very happy with how she handles our Gus. He’s in a great mood when we pick up. Communication during the stay is informative and helps keep our minds at ease. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a sitter. Will book her again for our future needs.
Carrie Was GREAT! Kept us informed by text and pictures. Took Lucy, or dog, on walks, which Lucy loved. Was very accommodating when Lucy was not willing to eat her regular dog food. Instructed Carrie to give Lucy some of her favorite treats, which did the trick. When we went to pick Lucy up to go home, she jumped on Carrie to give a good bye, you know then that she felt at home with Carrie.
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.
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.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
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.
