“ViVi and her family were so kind. Their a multi lingual family ( English & Spanish) which I know a lot of people look for, so that is a big plus! They shared photos and were so good to our Loki while our family visited the Dells. I will definitely be rebooting with her soon. This was my 4 yr old dogs first time away from us and home. We cried when we dropped him off like it was our kids first day of Kindergarten and the whole family came out to welcome us and meet the day before his drop off. I can't speak more highly of them!!”

Easy going and flexible with her schedule. Her home is safe and well maintained. I hope she will be available the next time I need a place for my high energy, fun loving pup”

“We had never boarded our 2 year old Brittany and we had a scheduled 10 day trip. I was so nervous about taking her to a kennel as she is pretty spoiled at home and the thought of her being kenneled really worried me. I heard about Rover from my sister and thought I would give it a try. From the meet and greet with Mike to all the pictures and Videos we received while away we could tell Ruby was having a great time and completely stress free. Mike did a great job with her and it really eased our worries knowing she had someone caring for her and other dogs to have fun with! Thanks for everything Mike! Would definitely recommend him for all your dogs' needs!”

“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.”

About: What sets me apart is my experience, patience, compassion, and genuine love for dogs. I have cared for many different types, sizes, personalities, and energy levels, including senior dogs who may need extra patience, attention, and specialized care. I understand that every dog has different needs and routines, and I take the time to learn what makes each dog comfortable and happy. I have also raised dogs of my own, giving me hands-on experience with daily care, training, routines, exercise, feeding, medications when needed, and recognizing when a dog needs extra attention. I’m reliable, attentive, flexible, and communicative, and I treat every dog in my care like a member of my own family. My Daily Routine Because I work from home with a flexible schedule, caring for dogs fits naturally into my daily routine. I’m home throughout much of the day, which allows me to give dogs plenty of attention, companionship, potty breaks, playtime, and walks without them feeling like they are simply being left alone. I typically start the day with potty time, breakfast, and some attention or a walk before settling into work. Throughout the workday, I take breaks to check on the dogs, let them outside for potty breaks using a leash or tie-out, other walk as needed to give them attention, and make sure they are comfortable. They are welcome to relax near me while I work, and I can adjust my routine based on each dog’s individual needs. I do occasionally need to be away from home for work or other commitments, but I’m very flexible and plan my schedule around the dogs in my care whenever possible. I’m comfortable adjusting feeding, potty breaks, walks, medications, rest time, or other routines to match what your dog is accustomed to. My goal is to provide a calm, loving home environment where your dog can feel comfortable, included, and cared for while you’re away. I understand that every dog is different, and I’m happy to work with their individual personality, age, energy level, and routine. I treat every dog in my home like one of my own, while following the routine and preferences their family has established for them with love, attention and affection.

Alex was incredible with my two dogs! They have different needs and she managed them with ease. I felt super comfortable with her care, especially since I was without any service or ability to contact her while my dogs were at her home. Neither dog wanted to leave her place! I highly recommend calling Alex to care for your dogs!

Amanda and her family were absolutely amazing with Skywalker! 🥰🐾 I felt so comfortable leaving him with them and knew he was in great hands the whole time. They treated him like part of their family, gave him lots of love and attention, and kept me updated with pictures and messages while I was away. Skywalker looked so happy and comfortable with them, which made it so much easier for me to relax and enjoy my trip without worrying about him. I’m so thankful for how well they took care of my boy! ❤️ I would absolutely trust Amanda and her family with Skywalker again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a loving and caring sitter. Thank you so much for taking such great care of him! 🥹🐶❤️

Kathi has provided the ultimate care for our aging yellow labrador Hank. He arrived for his latest stay with an upset tummy probably caused by watching us pack our bags! Kathi checked in with us and then took the extra steps you would take at home, preparing rice and meat to ease his tummy back to normal. We are so grateful to have found her! We appreciate her communication skills, including daily updates and pictures which put our minds at ease. We highly recommend Kathi's services, you will be so pleased with her care!

This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.

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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.

By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
