“Krysten and her family are WONDERFUL. This was a bit of a last minute stay for our pup and they were very quick to accommodate. She checked in with us often and we knew our girl was well taken care of”

“Great with my two little dogs! I could vacation without having to worry about them for once. Will definitely use her again! My dogs got along great with her dogs as well.”

“Had a wedding in Sioux Falls & needed a sitter. Corey, Lauren & family came to our rescue. They did such a good job with Zeke that he wanted to extend his stay! My fur- baby was well cared for, they'll definitely be first on our list to contact for future bookings. Thanks so much!”

“Mikayla and Jared took such great care of our sensitive dog! She was so nervous and needed some extra attention to adjust. By the time I picked her up days later, she seemed very relaxed and comfortable. Thanks so much!”

“Best rover experience this far! Christina was very pleasant. She worked around my schedule and kept me updated on my pup through out his stay. She has a nice big back yard for the dogs to play. My dog was exhausted when he got home :) definitely recommend!”

“Jamie did the best job watching Mushka! I felt very at ease leaving our dog with her from our initial meeting. Her home, personality, family, and dogs were all green lights from the start! And Mushka came home after our trip relaxed and tired. Thank you Jamie and family for keeping our dog safe and happy while we were away! Made us feel anxiety free!”

“I can't say enough good things about Sheila! From the moment I first spoke with her, I knew my kitten Ophie would be in great hands. Sheila took him in on just a day's notice, which was incredibly generous given the timing, and she handled everything with such care. She asked all the right questions to make sure she understood his needs, and her attention to detail was clear from the start. She even documented his first day with her, which was so reassuring and thoughtful. Throughout the week, she kept us updated regularly. Under Sheila’s care, Ophie’s personality truly shined. He was comfortable, happy, and clearly adored. It’s rare to find someone who treats your pet like their own, and Sheila absolutely did that. I’m so grateful for her and would recommend her to anyone looking for a loving, reliable sitter!”

“Anna was great and Boo had a great time. I am almost afraid to leave a 5 star review as I am afraid that everyone will book her!!! She sent me pictures and updates and I have re-booked for next month.”

“Jayne and her family were very welcoming for a last minute booking! Communication was excellent and I received pics and updates that really brightened my day. Will definitely use their hospitality again!😍😊😄”

“Kryz is absolutely awesome! She is very knowledgeable, thoughtful and caring and kept us updated on how our dog was doing while she was in her care. I highly recommended Kryz!!!”

“Paige was so friendly! She was an amazing communicator and sent us constant updates on how our ‘baby’ was doing. You can tell our dog was really loved on! I would definitely rebook with Paige!”

“Chelsey was great and pretty flexible since I was out of state. I never had the chance to meet ahead of time because of my schedule, but I couldn’t be happier with how she treated me and my cat! Chelsey sent me nice updates and plenty of pictures over the week, which was especially nice over the holidays. I would absolutely book with her again!”

“Angi was wonderful! Bentley had so much fun there playing with her dogs! She sent frequent videos and photos which was so appreciated! Our furry friends are a part of the family and it’s so important to know they are being loved and well taken care of. Also, Angii was super flexible drop off and pick up which was awesome. Highly recommended 5++”

“Lindsay and her family were great! It was our first time leaving our dog so we were pretty nervous and Lindsay put us at ease. She sent photos and messages throughout our trip! Our dog clearly enjoyed his time playing with her dogs and spending time with her family. He tends to be an anxious dog and he appeared extremely happy and calm when we picked him up! Thanks Lindsay and family!”

“Melissa and family were great with our dogs. They took extra care with our puppy and our dogs loved playing with their dogs. Great communication and sent lots of pictures, highly recommended!”

About: While I don’t have any pets right now, I would love to adore your fur baby while you’re away. They will not be lacking, snuggles, attention, walks, and praise. I work full-time in southern Sioux Falls but have a very flexible schedule to come home to check on and care for your fur babies during the weekdays. In the evenings and on weekends, I am home. Every other week I have my three kids ranging from 11 to 17 who also love pets! I’ve spent my entire life surrounded by animals, and quite frankly, a house doesn't feel like a home without a wagging tail or a soft purr. Since I don't have any pets of my own right now, your fur-baby becomes my absolute world the moment they walk through the door. Whether we’re exploring the quiet neighborhood on a long walk, playing a high-energy game of fetch in my large fenced-in backyard, or just enjoying some quality 'couch time,' I promise to shower them with the same love and devotion I’d give my own. From playful kittens to senior dogs who need a little extra patience and medication, I’m here to provide a safe, calm, and incredibly loving sanctuary for your best fur friend.
“Zach has watched our highly anxious dog twice now and he has done such a great job both times!! We can enjoy our vacations knowing our dog is in such great hands with Zach!”

“Melissa‘s kindness, sincerity, and genuine warmth shine through from the moment you meet her. Her home has that same welcoming energy –comfortable safe and full of thoughtful touches. The meat-and-greet Melissa offered before the stay was generous and reassuring, and Copper, her pup, was the perfect host - basically the mayor of hospitality town! He welcomed Peanut like an old friend and immediately showed her around. Melissa was flexible, thoughtful, and attentive, and she sent photos and videos throughout Peanut’s stay that absolutely made my day. Peanut came home ready for a nap, content, and clearly well-cared for - the Holy Trinity of a perfect pup vacation! Copper even taught Peanut how to go down the stairs, which definitely deserves its own merit badge. I am grateful for people like Melissa who create a safe, honest, and welcoming space for visiting pups. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a thoughtful, trustworthy, and genuinely caring home for their dog. You almost want to ask if she offers human boarding too. Melissa is agem – five stars, many tail wags, and a standing ovation from Peanut.”


“My dog had a blast at Marnie and Jeffery's place! Iggy loved their dogs and family members. Marnie sent me photos every day and I felt great knowing she was well-cared for. This was the first time I used Rover and I was a little anxious, but this was an excellent experience. I would definitely go with this family again, they're awesome!”

Morgan was GREAT!!! Unfortunately, our 2 Chihuahuas aren't used to having their family out of town and gave Morgan a hard time. :) She was such a trooper!! She stayed over and endured their barking and was able to warm them up enough to take treats from her hand. I would recommend Morgan because she was reliable, attentive, consistent, and cleaned the house up perfectly. I feel bad that our dogs weren't very friendly but it was nice knowing they were in great hands while we were gone!! Thanks, Morgan. :)
