“Peter was great with our dog. He took him for many walks, gave him lots of attention and sent us frequent updates. We'd definitely have Peter watch him again!”


“We had never left our dog before, and were nervous, but it worked out so well! We got lots of updates and pictures, which helped put us at ease. Would definitely use again!!! 5 stars!”


“Zane and his wife were so friendly!! They sent us updated with our pups and we loved that. Our dogs had soo much fun there and were tired when we picked them up:) would recommend them to anyone!”


“Our dogs had such a great stay with Ethan! They played hard and were exhausted when they got home. Well cared for and they had a lot of fun! Thank you!”


“Outstanding! I had to change the plans a number of times due to family plan changes and Patty was very understanding. My dog is also anxious and is tricky taking pills and Patty was great with it all! It was my first time using Rover and had a wonderful experience thanks to Patty.”


“Stacie took excellent care of Scrappy- he is a senior dog who takes meds twice a day. I was dealing with the recent death of my husband and she was so kind.”


“Excellent care, would book again! Very responsive to messages and sent some photo updates. Very pleased with the overall experience, thank you!”


“We boarded our dog Astro with Kaylee for two weeks in October. She took excellent care of him, and he clearly was fond of Kaylee and David, and felt very comfortable staying with them. Kaylee texted me photos of Astro daily, which made my separation anxiety a little easier to handle! I would highly recommend Kaylee as a caretaker for your pooch.”


“Kelli was a life saver and picked up our dog from another sitters house while we were in Florida. Our golden LOVES to be with her and her family, I never have to worry!!”


“I’m always so hesitant to leave my pup anywhere, but she had the best time at Christina’s. Kiya played her heart out and got all the snuggles, and I am so grateful.”


“Always know Chester is in great hands with Courtney! Well taken care of and has other friends to play with, something we love for our growing puppy. Thanks again!”


“Samantha (and her husband) were both amazing! I can't recommend them enough! She was quick to set up a meet and greet and my pup was at ease with her as soon as I dropped him off for his stay. She sent pictures and updates every day. They will forever be the first sitters I ask anytime I need to board in the future.”


“Jamie took great care of Opie, as usual. She sent many updates to ease our minds as he stayed with her shortly after a dental procedure. Opie loves to stay with Jamie!”


“I had the absolute pleasure of having Heather take care of my dog, Opal, and I couldn't be happier with the experience! From the very beginning, Heather went above and beyond to make sure Opal felt comfortable and loved. She sent me lots of pictures throughout the day, which gave me peace of mind and showed how well Opal was being cared for. Not only did she take Opal on multiple walks, but she also gave her a bath, leaving her looking and feeling fresh. The love and attention Opal received were beyond what I could have hoped for, and I will definitely be using Heather again in the future. Highly recommend!”



“Emily was wonderful throughout the whole experience. She invited us to her home to see how my dog would be before booking the stay. Throughout my dog's stay she sent pictures and updates on how he was doing. She was also very understanding of my flight issues I had and was very flexible. I'd recommend her to everyone.”


“Sydni is a great communicator, flexible in her availability. She welcomed us and our pet into her place and my dog Milo settled in right away. Highly recommended host.”


“Nelle was just plain awesome! She was very patient and loving with our skittish, spoiled super dog. It was refreshing to find a quality sitter on Rover after a couple of not-so-great experiences. Thank you for treating our baby-girl so well… and sorry for the sleepless night.”


“I am so pleased I chose Casey to take care of my pup!! We were going to be away for three weeks and it’s the first time Obi would be left for that long so I was really picky about who to leave him with. I loved that Casey is a stay-at-home Dad so I knew Obi would always have company. We scheduled a meet and greet and I was immediately at ease with how he interacted with my pup. Casey has a lot of experience with all types of dogs and I knew after that first meeting that Obi would be in good hands. He sent pictures and videos everyday and was very prompt in communication. I could see that Obi had a good time with his family and in meeting other dogs and I highly recommend him to take care of your furry one! Thanks, Casey, for taking such good care of Obi!!”


About: We’ve had many of our own dogs and cats throughout our lives and have been fostering rescue dogs for several years. I have experience that ranges from whelping litters to seniors. Our home is entirely pet-friendly, located on a quiet road just outside of Duluth, with 900 square feet of fenced play yard with artificial turf, a separate room for pets who need their own space, and a few playful pals to welcome your loved ones. We have 3 dogs and 3 cats of our own, who love to have guests! I work only 5 minutes from home Monday-Friday, and have an hour lunch break to let the pups out midday. Our home is your pets’ home while you’re away! My life revolves around our pets. I work 7:30-4:30 M-F just minutes from home, and prefer to spend my off time at home with our dogs and cats. We have a fenced play yard for dogs, and have designed every space in our home to be completely pet friendly. We have fostered since 2022, helping over 40 dogs find their forever homes. I have helped mamas deliver their puppies, and held seniors during their final days. Our dogs our housed on the main level of our home, welcome to curl up on the couch or nestle in their crate if they prefer. Cats are given a quiet room to themselves, or can roam where they please. We are up by 6:30 each morning and generally tucked into bed by 10:00. We are flexible to your pet(s) specific needs and ensure that they will be part of family while they’re here.
