“Having a meet and greet with this family pre-vacation helped both of us know it was a good fit. We are so grateful our pup got time and attention from this family while we were away! We loved getting photos and updates daily and would recommend them to others :)”
“Manami was wonderful to communicate with and i appreciated the updates she provided while Judy was in her care. Judy appeared to have a great time. I greatly appreciated Manami being able to take Judy on short notice and was easy to work with in terms of drop off and pick up times. Highly recommend her.”
“Wesley was absolutely wonderful with my dog, Frankie. From the moment I dropped him off, it was evident that Frankie was treated like family and genuinely well cared for. Wesley and his parents have a beautiful home with a secure, fenced-in yard, which made us feel incredibly comfortable. We were able to travel out of the country with complete peace of mind knowing my dog was safe, happy, and truly prioritized. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would highly recommend Wesley to anyone looking for exceptional care. I received photos and updates. We look forward to planning our next adventure and rebooking with Wesley!”
“What a wonderful sitter! My partner and I loved all the pictures and messages sent throughout the day, it really put us at ease. I will absolutely be contacting Yuli again for any future doggie day care needs. Our dogs loved her and you could tell she and her family really loved them back too.”
“Abigail was very helpful in planning our pets care. We met ahead of time in her home so our dog could meet her first. Her energy was very calm and I felt confident in her abilities right away. She sent photos every day of our very happy dog. I would highly recommend her to anyone. We would definitely trust her again with our highly sensitive and anxious pitbull.”
“Tim is the most awesome sitter ever. Mia is always treated as family. She has some health issues now, and Tim made sure she got her meds. He takes her on walks everyday, and Mia loves the fenced yard! We use Tim exclusively for our furbaby. We know she is well taken care of and loved. Thank you for above and beyond service my friend!”
“This was the first time boarding our dog and we couldn’t be happier with Mayumi. She and her family are the absolute best. They took great care of our pup and sent daily photo updates. We will definitely book with Mayumi again.”
“Promise took such great care of my dog, Toro! I received multiple VERY cute photos and videos throughout his stay and he looked like he was having a great time. He loves other dogs and was delighted to get to play with other dogs Promise was caring for. We will definitely bring Toro to her again next time we need a sitter!”
“We highly recommend Kyle! Our dog, Waffles, loves to stay with them, we have used Kyle several times for long trips and we appreciate the updates he sends us and love that our dog just gets to join in on their day to day routine! Love coming home from a trip to a happy and tired dog.”
“Susan provided us amazing daily recaps of how our dog was spending her day at “camp”, it sounded like she was having so much fun we weren’t sure our dog would want us to come pick her up. But truly, you can tell that Susan really puts her whole heart into caring for dogs and she loves having furry friends in her home. Next time we need a sitter, we’ll definitely check her availability!”
“Susan and Craig took watching our pet seriously. We know that he was in good hands. They kept us aware of his well being by sending pictures and providing regular updates. We will definitely visit them again. Thank you.”

“Myria was a great dog sitter. She is very friendly/ communicates well. She watched my 9 month old puppy for 10 days and I felt very comfortable leaving her with Myria and her family. I highly recommend her.”
“Our dog Rio had a BLAST with Rachelle and Dan. They were very detailed oriented when it came to Rio’s special needs. They also sent the perfect amount of updates and pictures throughout the stay. Definitely will book again!”
“TJ & Jill are super at accommodating us and treating our dog like family! Their 2 dogs are friendly and our dog fit right in to their pack! Thank you for taking care of our girl Ruby!”
“Kate was an amazing sitter for our pup Milly. She kept us updated each day with photos and notes on what Milly was up to. It was so reassuring to know that our dog was in a loving environment while we were away. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Thank you Kate!”
“Colleen and Joe were so wonderful to our little guy. He was with them for an extended stay while we were out of the country and they sent daily updates and photos, which really put us at ease. When we picked him up, we could tell he loved his stay with them and was right at home. We know Dezi can’t wait for future visits with his new friends.”
“Brandon and Megan were amazing caretakers of Bear, a 1.5 year old black Australian Shepherd mix. Bear hadn't spent any time in a kennel or playing with other dogs. Brandon and Megan's dogs were gentle and calm; they taught him how to play and explore. Bear became a member of the pack! Brandon and Megan were also very flexible when the schedule. Bear and his mom were incredibly blessed to have Brandon and Megan!”

Beth & Evan were great dog sitters for our dog, Phoebe. They provided frequent updates & photos. They were obviously caring and they have a lot of experience with different dog personalities because they do so much dog sitting. I'd be very comfortable having them petsit again in the future!
Auggie loooved his stay with Stacy. She sent plenty of updates the whole time, so I never had to wonder how he was doing. Auggie absolutely loved playing with her dog, Bailey. It was basically a long weekend play date for both pups. She was also super flexible with my timing, which made things so much easier while traveling. You can tell she genuinely loves dogs, and she clearly loved having Auggie there. I'd 100% book her again.
Thank you so much for taking such good care of Lexi while we were traveling. You gave her a home away from home! Thank you for the daily pictures and excellent communication. Your Milo was a wonderful dog host and Lexi would love to come again. Thank you for everything!
Lisa was amazing with our five year old Goldendoodle. He had a blast with her during his one-week stay and was well cared for and loved. Lisa sent updates and pics daily. It was such a wonderful experience. Couldn’t recommend her more highly. She was a wonderful host.
Abigail was so wonderful and took amazing care of my (high maintenance) little terrier while I was out of town for a week. He got lots of attention and walks, and the clearly bonded. They clearly bonded and he had a great time. She even made a sweet care package for him! I would highly recommend her to anyone.
Sara and her husband were fabulous!! My dog has a lot of anxieties, and Sara made sure we had a couple of meet and greets before leaving him. She has a calming manner that made my dog feel calm and secure. I came home to a happy, and well cared for dog. Thank you!!! She sent pictures and kept us updated.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Wayzata is $47 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $32 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.

As of October 2026, there are 2,623 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Wayzata. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Wayzata 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 Wayzata home-away-from-home, 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 Wayzata.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Wayzata 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 , 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 .
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.
