“There aren't enough words to describe how awesome Rebekah and her family were to our little pup while we were on vacation. From the daily updates, to making her feel like a part of their family, they truly were amazing every step of the way. Would highly recommend them to anyone needing boarding”
“Candace took great care of Huckleberry and Annabelle. They had fun playing with the other dogs and she sent me updates and photos. I was nervous leaving my dogs for the first time ever, but she put my mind at ease. We have already booked with her again. Highly recommend.”
“Jennifer was amazing!! Koda has such a great time staying with Jennifer and her family for a long weekend. Communication was excellent, the pictures and updates were so wonderful. Jennifer made sure Koda would be a good fit before taking her in for the weekend, which is something I personally appreciated, especially with a high energy pup. I couldn’t say enough good things - would totally recommend and will be using for future bookings! Thank you Jennifer and family!”
“Brenda and Alvin were great sitters who treated our pup like their own. They took him on fun adventures and made sure his time away from us was a vacation for him too. We would highly recommend their services!”
“Used Kathryn for a two week trip on a 6 year old doggie. The dog had plenty of room to run, was well taken care of. Would 100% use her again for my future trips !”
“Incredibly insightful, and very trusted. I'm so grateful for David's intuitive care of our young dog. David clearly knows what he's doing. I would definitely recommend him!”
“I’m very new to this pet sitting thing but I think overall it seemed to go okay. I needed to board her due to a move. Skye is busy checking out the new place. I would use her again for sure.”
“Vanessa was fantastic with Twig and Lily. This was only the third time we've left them anywhere since we brought them home, and the first time using Rover, so I was so nervous they'd be miserable and anxiety-ridden bark monsters the whole weekend. I am so pleased with how she and her family treated and cared for our dogs. Vanessa sent pictures and kept open communication with me, which was SO reassuring. As it turns out, my nervous little dogs had a great time! I can't say enough nice things about our experience!”
“We had such a wonderful experience with Linzy & her family! Sadie absolutely loved them and came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well-loved. 🐾❤️ If your dog loves kids, this is a fantastic option! They were so sweet with her, and it was obvious she had a great time being part of their family for a bit. We felt completely comfortable knowing she was in such a loving home. We would absolutely recommend and would happily book with them again!”
“Riley seemed very happy here! Shelby and family took great care of her. Communication was great, I received some fun pics and had no worries while I was away. I would gladly rebook with them in the future!”

“Katrina and her family were such a life saver for our family when we went on vacation in February. Our 2 dogs, Sarge and Chauncie had a blast while staying there and I think they were a bit bummed because they had to come home. I think they got more love and attention there than they get at home :) During our whole vacation, Katrina sent pictures of the dogs and daily updates. I felt really at ease on our trip knowing our dogs were well cared for. We will definitely be using Katrina whenever we plan out of town trips. She loved our dogs like they were her own.”
“Terry and Samantha took great care of our two papillons! We received updates and pictures daily. I will definitely recommend them to others and use their services again in the future!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Walbo
I had to book an extended stay for my dog due to a family member passing. Taylor is so very accommodating and kind. This is my 3rd or 4th time booking a stay for my big boy and I am always satisfied with her services. Most importantly, I feel more than comfortable leaving him in her car. She is knowledgeable and gives great updates with pictures! We will be back..Hopefully under better circumstances.
Taylore and her husband Luke were absolutely amazing! We needed last-minute boarding for our puppy over Thanksgiving weekend, and Taylore responded to my message within minutes. She quickly arranged a time for us to meet and drop off our pup. When we arrived, they were incredibly welcoming, and we immediately felt confident that our sweet girl would be well cared for. Throughout her stay, Taylore sent daily photos and updates, which gave us such peace of mind. We will definitely be using her services again in the future. We highly recommend her—100%!
Taylore was a great caretaker for our 1 year old golden while we were away! I received many updates with lots of pictures. I was very nervous to leave my boy with a stranger but I felt very comfortable with Taylore and her husband. I appreciate the care they took with him! Thank you!

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Walbo is $50 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $42 and $60 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.

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.
94% of sitters in Walbo 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 Walbo 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 Walbo.
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 Walbo. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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 Walbo 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.
