“Lan has watched my puppy Posie a couple times now and she takes such great care of her! She’s super accommodating- my flight was delayed this past weekend and she was very nice about keeping my puppy longer than planned. Highly recommend her!”
“Ashley did a wonderful job watching my goldendoodle Crosby! She sent an update and/or picture everyday to let us know what kind of activities they got up to each day. I was very happy with how much exercise she gave Crosby, sometimes I was worried that he was having so much fun that he wouldn't even want to come home! Knowing that Crosby was in such good hands with Ashley while I was gone gave me a lot of peace of mind.”
“Absolutely amazing experience with Dave and Nichole! We had to board our beloved 8-year-old Italian Greyhound for the first time, and I was understandably nervous about leaving her. However, Dave and Nichole put all my worries to rest. They provided daily updates, complete with adorable pictures that showcased how happy and comfortable our pup was in their care. It was clear that they genuinely spent time with her, showering her with love and attention. Their home was perfect, complete with a spacious, fenced yard for her to play in. It made us feel so at ease knowing she was in such a safe and welcoming environment. We couldn’t have asked for better caregivers for our dog. Without a doubt, we will be using Dave and Nichole again in the future, and I highly recommend them to anyone in need of a caring and attentive pet sitter. Thank you, Dave and Nichole, for taking such great care of our furry family member!”
“Robert and his wife took excellent care of our dog Jasper over a long weekend. He sent daily updates, which was very appreciated. I can tell that Jasper settled in and felt comfortable there, and he came home relaxed and happy. Thanks!”
“Jenny and Mark took excellent care of our dog over 2 weeks. Communication was easy and we received regular updates. I would definitely have them dog sit again!”
“Maxi (my girl cat) loved staying at Mario's. I was afraid she wouldn't want to come home. He played with her, fed her, groomed her, treated her like royalty. I definitely will have him babysit my girl again.”
“Rosie was very happy at Kyle’s. We saw some sweet photos of her during her stay. We appreciated your flexibility in picking her up too. Thanks much. We will definitely request to rebook with Kyle.”
“Katie is an amazing sitter. She watched our dog Ramen for a week. She kept him active with walks and took so many pictures/videos. Her dogs are so cute and they became bffs. We were so lucky to have Katie as our sitter. Her communication is exceptional and I can tell she really loves what she does. Please have Ramen back!”
“Remy and Kevin are approachable, professional, and communicative. They also provided attentive care to my dog with daily updates. I highly recommend Remy and Kevin!”
“Katie did an awesome job taking care of Copper! She did a great job sending updates that included pics and videos. Could tell that he had a great time with her! Would highly recommend.”
“We loved having our dog stay with Brenda and her family. We will definitely use them again. She sent pictures every day,veas an excellent communicator and my dog was playing with her dogs when I came to pick him up. A+ experience! Thanks Brenda!”
“Kristen and her family helped us out over a weekend. Her young girls have a lot of energy but she kept and eye on our Leo to be sure they were good with him. He sleeps a lot and they let him do that. All evidence was that Leo was cared for.”
“Deb sent updates and pictures often. Our dog is a little bit spoiled and Deb did great with her. I could tell she loves animals. Deb has a great set up inside for the dogs and a fenced yard too. We will definitely use her again. Our dog came back happy and well cared for!”
“Andrea was fantastic! Nash loved her and the furry friends that he made while staying at her home. Andrea kept in contact throughout the day with texts and even sent a video. This could not have been a better experience...we definitely hope to have a future stay with Andrea!”
“Angela provides a kind, loving and stable second home to our rescue German shepherd mix Rufus. With family in the South and West, we take a lot of trips. Rufus can’t come on all of them. Angela is truly a saving angel who does everything she can to be available. Rufus is almost as excited to see her at the beginning of his stay as he is to see us at the end! Can’t recommend enough.”
“Rachel was an excellent sitter for Rosie!! Her space is very dog friendly. Rosie has some anxiety, but she seemed very comfortable with Rachel. I appreciated Rachel’s daily updates and pictures. Would highly recommend Rachel as a sitter!”
“This was our first Rover experience and I couldn't be happier! We had open communication and photos the whole time. Carrie was great for Burt and even made special accomodations. Highly recommend!!”
“Simon was such a good host for sitting my two cats! He gave them their own room, food, and a litter box, with plenty of space and privacy, and he checked in and played with them each day. I loved receiving the pictures and video updates a few times each day as Simon shared how my kitties were doing. Simon was also very flexible to accommodate my drop-off and pick-up of these kitties, even though I had to reschedule a few times! I would love to rebook with Simon the next time I need a sitter for my cats, highly recommended!”
“It was fairly last minute that we needed to find a sitter and Ellen was flexible and understanding our needs. She asked us thoughtful questions regarding our dog, his habits, and our preferences. Our dog had a great time with her and he looks forward to seeing her again in the future!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - West Saint Paul
Our dogs really enjoyed their time with Andrea (so much so that it was hard to get one of them to leave!). Andrea is very responsive and was flexible when something came up that required us to extend their boarding by a day. We appreciate that she has experience with a wide range of dogs and thoroughly enjoys taking care of them!
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.
Kristina was amazing. Her flexibility with our schedule and her very apparent love for what she does is so clear and comforting for us as we leave her in complete care of our beloved family member. We highly recommend Kristina as an excellent resource for the care and well being of your pet.
Our little Prairie Dog had a great stay with Jon and Natalie! This was our first experience leaving her with non-family members and we could tell she was very comfortable with them. It really seems like they treated her as if she was their own - which is exactly what we were hoping for! Will definitely reach out to them again!
Nicole and David were great. They sent us pictures and some videos on. How are Max was doing at their house. Playing and sleeping with there dogs. we are so happy we found a place we can leave our pet and he’s well taken care of and probably a little bit spoiled lol Thank you
Simon was very friendly and knowledgeable on caring for Ramzy. He introduced him to multiple different dogs, so while we were away, it just seemed like Ramzy was on his own little vacay with friends. Updated me daily with pictures and videos I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter.

94% of West Saint Paul sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which West Saint Paul landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their West Saint Paul 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 West Saint Paul.
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.
You and your West Saint Paul 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.
