“Penni and her daughter were able to take care of my standard poodle, Fluffy, for about a week this summer. They were able to take her at a short notice, and I have been so pleased with how everything worked out. We received regular updates and pictures about how Fluffy was doing. (She even learned some new tricks!). Drop-off and pick-up were very easy, and Fluffy was returned to us the same happy dog that she was when I dropped her off.”

“I've use Troy & Emily 3 times now, and am very pleased with how things went. The third time I brought my girls to their house, my dogs were anxious to get inside, which told me they were happy to be there. I will be using their services in the future.”

About: Hi! I’m Eva, I'm a professional dog trainer and owner of Crockett K9 Services here in Fergus Falls. Boarding happens in my home environment, and each dog's day is scheduled around their individual needs for exercise, rest, meals, and routine. I take dogs of any breed, size, age, or behavioral concern, and I have experience administering medication and caring for dogs with health concerns. I pay close attention to detail, so feeding instructions, meds, and house rules are followed exactly. You'll get regular photo updates so you always know how your dog is doing! I'm home all day, so your pet is never left alone for long stretches. My days run on a routine built around the animals: training sessions, play time, exercise, meals, and scheduled downtime. Your dog or cat's day gets structured around their needs, not squeezed into mine! Dogs sleep in kennels at night and get scheduled kennel downtime during the day! If your dog does not go good in a kennel, please let me know and we can arrange care to your pet’s needs. I do day trips to parks on request, plus regular walks. There are plenty of toys and enrichment for both dogs and cats during their stay. If your pet does better solo, I can keep animals separated.

About: I treat every pet like my own — with patience, love, and attention to their unique needs. I have experience caring for puppies who need gentle guidance and positive reinforcement, as well as senior pets who need extra patience, slow walks, and medication reminders. I understand that no two pets are the same, so I take the time to learn about your pet’s personality, routine, and preferences. Whether it’s energetic playtime, cozy snuggles, or a quiet companion for your older pet, I adjust to what makes them happiest. ✅ Special skills: Experience with senior pets (including administering oral medications) Comfortable with crate training and basic commands for puppies Knowledgeable about pet safety and body language Reliable communication and photo updates so you feel at ease Your pet’s comfort, safety, and joy are my top priority! Pet care is more than just a job for me — it’s something I genuinely enjoy and look forward to every day. Spending time with animals brings balance and joy to my routine. Whether it’s a morning walk to start the day with fresh air, a midday drop-in visit for playtime, or evening snuggles with a senior pet, I make pet care a priority. I plan my schedule so I can give each pet my full attention, without feeling rushed. Their well-being comes first — I’m committed to keeping their routines consistent so they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. When I care for pets in your home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow your instructions carefully — from feeding schedules and potty breaks to medications, favorite toys, or special needs. I respect your space, and I treat your home as I would my own: with care and responsibility. Your pet’s comfort and safety are always my top priorities. I provide plenty of love, attention, playtime, and companionship, so they feel secure while you’re away.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.

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.

Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise 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 Wendell 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 Wendell.

<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 Wendell 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.
