“Susie was great! Hank had a wonderful time playing with her dog, and another dog she was sitting. He came home wiped out from all the running around in her backyard.”
“Dave is the best! Our Sam just loved him. He was extremely well cared for and honestly the peace of mind knowing your pup is in good hands just can’t be beat. It’s hard to leave your dog when you need to be out of town and I can assure anyone reading this review that your dog will be very well loved if Dave is taking care of them.”
“I felt completely at ease with Lindsay watching my pup, Loki. We did a meet and greet prior to our visit which made me feel more comfortable and ready to leave him for 4 days. During his visit I received updates daily and photos! Very happy with my experience.”
“Timothy was great! It is awesome getting daily updates and pictures. Good piece of mind when you are out of town! Will definitely have him watch the dogs again!”
“This is Nellie’s 3rd time staying with Terri and we so appreciate having such a great sitter. She gives Nellie lots of attention and love. Nellie loves looking out the windows and having access outside to watch the squirrels. We will be traveling in Italy this fall and it puts us at ease knowing she is well cared for and likes visiting. Highly recommend Terri.”
“Great experience, took amazing care of my dog, and responded quickly. Also sent me pics throughout the day and my boy looked so happy. Also super convenient if you’re in the U of M area!”
“Judy is a sweet lady who seems genuinely interested in caring for, spoiling, and spending time with my dog. I’m not so sure how much she walked him, I suspect not too much, but otherwise she’s really kind and seems to care quite a bit for my pet, which means a lot to me. I highly recommend Judy for pet sitting!”
“Promise made our pup feel right at home. She was very flexible and made a last minute adjustment for me. I look forward to bringing our pup back when we need help again.”
“Amanda and her family did a terrific job giving loving care to our dog while we were travelling. Not only did our dog have terrific care, but she truly got a bonus family as well because Amanda's children also give tons of love and attention to the pets that stay in their home. I highly recommend Amanda and her family as caregivers!”
“My Charlie was well taken care of and enjoyed getting to spend time with other dogs. She was taken on multiple walks which we appreciated as well!”
“Jordan did a great job sitting our dog. He was even able to accommodate a last minute change of plans, and take our dog for an extra day. He responded quickly to all questions during the boarding process, and gave good updates during the stay. I highly recommend Jordan!”
“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. 🙏🏽💙🐾”
“Jennifer and Eric did a great job taking care of our dog! They are so kind and communicative. I loved receiving photos of Bunny during her stay! It brightened my day while being away from home!”
“Hannah is amazing! We've left our girl with her twice now, and she took really good care of her and adapted to her needs for 100%! Thank you so much, we'll definitely be back ❤️”
“We used Rover for the first time and found Susan's profile to be right up ours and our shih-pop's alley! Susan is very sweet and had a big yard for our older pup to run around and enjoy the sun. We absolutely will be using her again in the future!”
“My dog had a great long 8 night stay with Leah while my wife and I were on vacation. Leah gave regular updates with photos, and was very easy to communicate with the entire time + before. She took him on walks and she has a fenced yard to play in. I definetly recommend Leah and would trust her to care for my dog again.”
“Leaving my dog for more than three days always gives me so much anxiety but after meeting Chelsey and Byron, i knew that Woody would be in great hands. they were responsive throughout the stay, sent updates of what they were up to with woody, and pick up and drop off were seamless. highly would recommend! woody had a great time with them and their kids.”
“Jen was fantastic. Great communication and frequent updates throughout the stay. She took wonderful care of Fonzie who took to her immediately. She was also very flexible around my schedule. We'll be back for sure.”
“Cassie was perfect. She took great care of my cat for the two weeks I was gone. She gave many updates with pictures throughout. Her two cats and household were perfect. I can not recommend her care more highly.”
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Hilltop
Susan was absolutely amazing, we cannot recommend enough. Excellent communication throughout the stay with updates and pictures. Susan has an obvious care and warmth for animals which gave us peace of mind and reassurance. We found the perfect place for our little guy to be when we are away. Thank you 😊

We had a great experience with Jailene! Our dog was very comfortable and clearly well cared for during his stay. She sent us regular photo and text updates, which gave us peace of mind while we were away, and was always available if we wanted to check in. She was also very accommodating when our flight was unexpectedly delayed and we needed to extend his stay. We really appreciated how attentive and caring she was, and would definitely book with her again!
Davis did a fantastic job with Lou! They went on daily walks, played frisbee and fetch, and let her snuggle on the furniture making sure she felt right at home. He also helped with some last minute medication. Our dog is a people pup so it was great for her to have so much solo human attention. Highly recommend Davis and Emma!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Hilltop home-away-from-home, packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Hilltop.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Hilltop sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit .
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.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
