“Elizabeth did a great job! She was responsive with her communication. She was warm and inviting for our puppy. Oscar seemed to have a great time in her home. Thank you Elizabeth for providing wonderful care!”
“Michelle and Brian and their boys are an amazing family. We knew that our DeeJay was going to be loved and well cared for while we were away. They were genuinely excited to host DeeJay! During our meet & greet, they were all home and asked many questions to get to know DeeJay, his personality and his routine. They sent us plenty of pics during the week and were great communicators We can't wait to have them host DeeJay again in the near future. I highly recommend this fun loving family!”
“Another successful vacation for my family in the books! I couldn't have done it without Amy and Chris watching our fur baby Chewy. Amy is amazing! I love the updates she gives us and I know he's getting the same care as if he were at home. Our dogs get along great and I love that, makes for easy dog sitting. Thanks again Amy!”
“Trudy and her family are wonderful! We get lots of great updates and our pup always comes home happy and tired from lots of play and activity. Can’t recommend Trudy enough.”
“I highly recommend Lori. She did a wonderful job watching our dog for a week while we were on vacation. She offered to meet with us in advance so our dog was able to check everything out. This made us (and our dog) more comfortable with the stay. She took great care of him and even sent us a few photos during the week. This was great for our 3 kids who missed him quite a bit. We could tell he was given lots of love and attention. Seriously could not recommend Lori more highly.”
“Alka and Rajeev are so easy to talk to and always give prompt responses. They have a big fenced yard so our dog really enjoyed his staying in their home. They have so many tears of experiences so we were pretty confident that our dog is in good hands. Highly recommended!”
“Jared watched our doggo for a last minute weekend away from home. He was responsive, flexible, and genuinely happy to see our dog, which made us feel comfortable despite them being newer to Rover. He was clearly experienced with dogs and sent us photos and updates about walks, playing fetch, taking meds, and getting snuggles in. Our dog seemed relaxed returning to us. We won’t hesitate to reach out to Jared again in the future. Thank you!”
“The sitter and her family were incredibly kind and welcoming. Communication was excellent, and I appreciated the thoughtful photo updates throughout Teddy’s stay. He seemed very happy and had a great time. Overall, it was a wonderful experience, and I highly recommend them to care for your pet.”
“Mary is absolutely the BEST! Our family is SO thankful that we found such a caring person to watch Teddy while we are away! She sends daily pictures, gets Teddy outside and on walks, and we know Teddy is having so much fun with her dog Izzy! We truly could not ask for a better dog sitter! We plan on booking with her again and again! Thank you Mary!!!🩷”
“Ryan did another great job caring for our Bernese Mt Dog. Ryan was always available when we had questions or updates. He provided regular posts on her activities. He was flexible as our travel plans changed slightly, but he could accomodate our needs. I would recommend Ryan if you are in need of a dog sitter in the Twin Cities area.”
“Julie and Ben were great! We needed a sitter on short notice, and they were quick to accommodate! Our dogs looked like they had a great time. We will definitely consider them for future needs!”
“Finding someone who can handle a high-maintenance large breed is no small feat, but we couldn't be happier with the care provided. Our dog is a lot to manage—both in size and personality—yet Monica and family stepped up to the challenge with total confidence. It was such a relief to receive regular updates and see that he was not just being "watched," but truly well-cared for. If you have a larger dog that needs a firm but high-energy and compassionate sitter, we highly recommend Monica's services!”
“Our pup came home happy and well cared for. Kelly gave our dog enough exercise and even catered to our finicky eater. She was kind and treated our dog like her own! She also was easy to work with.”
“What a great dog-loving family! Our dogs really seemed to feel at home there and they came home tired so we know they got a lot of exercise. They were well cared for. Thank you Jona.”
“Alexis did a great job watching our cat & was an excellent communicator. She responded quickly to any questions we had, sent photo updates, and made the whole process run really smoothly. Would definitely recommend! Thanks so much :)”

“Denise and Michael took good care of Sawyer. It was evident that he enjoyed staying with them. They were very responsive to our questions. We appreciate the photos and updates they sent while we were on our trip. Denise and Michael were also flexible with us when we had a last minute to change in schedule.”
Apple Valley pet parents share their Rover experiences
Morgan and Jordan were very kind to our dog, Lucius, treating him like family. They gave him plenty of snuggles and kept us updated with photos. Their fenced in backyard is a bonus since we don’t have one. Their dogs are sweet and accepting of other dogs. We would definitely request to book again!
This was our first time using Rover so we were nervous leaving our 5 month old puppy in general. But Aish & family did a great job communicating and were super fast at responding. Also appreciated the multiple pictures/videos each day. Our pup seemed to be well taken care of! We appreciate it and will definitely rebook!
This is our second time using Kim for our pup. Both times, we were gone for 7-8 days. Kim and her kids are amazing carers and Kim sends daily pics and updates on how our dog is doing, which really helps us feel good about being away. She’s super communicative, friendly, and just an awesome dogsitter!
Cate was fantastic with our Morkie! She provided updates and pictures and worked to make sure everything was as seamless as possible. (Including a meet and greet prior and flexible pick up). Upon pick up, we could tell that Penny had bonded with Cate and her pups. We will definitely be back again. Thank you!
We love bringing Yoda to Braiden and Candi’s if we need a sitter! Candi sends daily updates and photos on how Yoda is doing. On this visit, he had a minor injury on his dew claw he got while playing and she kept us updated and made sure he had proper care to it. Candi is so communicative and we really appreciate knowing our pup is in good hands and having fun while we’re gone!
