“Lauren and Michael were wonderful! They watched Ringo over our wedding weekend, and we felt so comfortable with them. They sent pictures and he looked so happy, they tolerated his many kisses, and let us come over the week before to meet them. Will definitely use them again, Ringo had a blast!”
“This is our first dog and our first time leaving her. Amy made it easy with the pictures and regular checkins. It was clear that our dog was well loved while we were gone!”
“Jenny did a great job with Habeeb! He is really anxious but he seemed so calm with Jenny and her son Shay. She sent regular updates and pictures, I would gladly let her sit Habeeb again!”
“Judy is wonderful. She took great care of Heidi and kept us updated while we were away, which was unexpected and nice, as we haven't left little Heidi behind for a while. She is and older dog so has some particular needs and Judy was great with her. Thank you Judy and Rover!”
“María was great, not only I felt confident that she was taking good care of Guapo but also I knew that he was in a loving home while we were away; she sent several pictures, kept us up to date and was very flexible to update our reservation when our flight got delayed. We will for sure be reaching out to Maria for future dog sitting requests. 🐾”

“We were so happy with how Timmothy took care of our puppy and have already booked our next weekend with him. Our pup Zoe does not generally like people, and she warmed up to him right away during our meet and greet. During Zoe’s boarding, Timmothy checked in multiple times per day with notes, pictures, and videos which made us feel very comfortable knowing she was taken care of. Highly recommend!”
“My Lumi had a great time at Dave’s. She can be shy of new people but she took to him right away! You can tell how much he truly loves and cares about animals. If you’re looking for someone to watch your dog, I would 100% recommend Dave. I will definitely be reaching out to him in the future!”
“Susan and Craig were outstanding caretakers! They took Navi for mutiple walks, played, cuddles…all the things she loves! They also sent pics and videos which helped us feel better. We would book with them again in a heartbeat!”

“Carsten was AMAZING with my pup. He was very professional, had a lot of enthusiasm around caring for my pup and all around good doggy vibes. He made a really cute short video and sent me photos throughout my pups stay. They went on long walks, went down to the river and stayed cool in this heat! I truly think Carsten imprinted on my pup b/c he came back with an ear to ear smile! I would HIGHLY recommend Carsten if you’re in the Minneapolis area. Unfortunately, I don’t live in the area but I will 1000% be reaching out to him again next time we’re in town! Thank you SOOO much for the best first rover experience! <3 Bane & Laila”
“Nate and his family were so sweet and loving towards our babygirl. He regularly sent pictures and provided updates which made us feel at ease and happy knowing we chose the right home to babysit Raven. She had lots of playtime with other dogs they sitted and got to play with the kids which Raven loves. She seemed so happy in all the photos. We know she had a blast. We were so lucky to land such a perfect spot for her. 🙏🏽💙🐾”
“Sloane loves staying with them! It’s always fun she has other pup friends to play with and two people she can cuddle during down time! Super communicative as always. I could tell she didn’t want to leave when I came to pick her up! They’re always one of my go to asks when I’m out of town.”
