“Lynn is great! We always know our girls will be well taken care of. They get excited when we get to her house. And most importantly we do not worry at all when we leave our pups with her. We would highly recommend Lynn!”
“Brenda & family were amazing with Aspen. Aspen felt right at home and happy. I received regular updates and knew she was well taken care of. Highly recommended.”
“Katie had very good communication with setting up our first experience with her. This was the first time we left our dog with a sitter and she gave us great piece of mind so we could enjoy our time away without worrying about our dog. She send many updates and pictures/videos so we could see our dog was having a good time. I would recommend and use her again.”

“Aish was great taking care of our dog for 3 days , she kept in touch with updates and photos and made sure he took his antibiotics that were a last minute prescription. I would recommend Aish and her family to all my friends and family. Thank you for everything Aish!”
“David and his wife took great care of our dog. They took our dog for a walk at least twice a day and sent us pictures of her on the walks and snuggled up on their couch. David provided daily updates on how things were going and I was happy that he was home during the day to watch over my dog.”

About: I am a teacher turned stay at home mom on a 3 acre homestead in the city. I am very responsible, prompt and give detailed care. I would love to match the schedule you keep your pet on at home! I am naturally communicative and clear and love the outdoors in all weather. Our whole family loves to care for your pet! I have loved and cared a menagerie of pets over the years--4 dogs from puppy through their senior years, many cats, birds, and a bearded dragon. I am my friends' favorite pet sitter because the whole family is genuinely excited to love your animals! I have plenty of experience in puppy and senior dog care. Can't wait to meet you! I am a stay at home mom, so I have plenty of time to care for your pets! I am available most days to board your pet! Our senior dog just passed away, so we would welcome your animal to our spacious 3 acre homestead. I thoroughly enjoy taking dogs on walks and playing fetch. I can easily crate your pet if we decide it is best.
“My dog enjoyed playing in Roberts large fenced in backyard at meeting new dog friends. Robert was good with communication and provided daily updates with photos and videos.”
“Tasha took great care of our senior dog! She asked great questions to make sure she was informed on everything and provided great updates. We will be booking her again for our next trip!”
“Dawn cared for our 2 one year old Morkie babies for 10 days over the new year holiday while we were on vacation in Aruba. She sent pictures, videos and text updates almost daily. Our babies looked like they were having a ball with all of their new little doggy friends. They were safe, happy and well cared for. They got lots of attention and love. We’ve never been away from our dogs for more than one weekend since we got them, so it was very stressful leaving them for so long. We didn’t want to lock them up in a kennel, so we took a chance on Rover. Our dogs are very small, so we didn’t want them in a place with larger dogs. After having a meet and greet with Dawn, we felt good about leaving our babies with her. The fact that she only cares for small dogs was the deciding factor. We were extremely happy with the care she provided and will definitely use her again. Our sweet little babies had a fun, play vacation of their own. We highly recommend her.”
“Tracy's care for my Howie was excellent. She provided plenty of mental and physical stimulation for my buddy and took the time to truly get to know him. I felt like she took care of him like he was her own furry baby. I could tell from her pictures and videos that he was comfortable and having fun! Her attention to detail + experience shows and it was a big comfort to realize how capable & responsible she is and how much she cares. Thank you, Tracy!”
“Dalton & Kaitlin made our 110 lb dog, Koda, feel right at home. They were always keeping us updated on how he was doing and always asked if there were specific things we wanted to work on for training. Highly recommend.”
“Jenny and Mark were fantastic with Obi and our first time using Rover. They made me feel 100% comfortable with leaving Obi with them for the first time ever, and communication was open and reassuring. I received several updates while on our trip and found Obi very happy and comfortable staying with them. Will absolutely be reaching out to them again in the future!”
“Dylan and his family were wonderful and patient with our dog Bailey. She was well cared for and treated like family. Having once had a dog, this family knew how to take care of a dog!”
“My dog Willy had such a great time while I was away on vacation. He loved the backyard, pets, and cuddles. Jon would consistently keep me updated and send me photos of my buddy. Definitely will be going back!”

Carrie Was GREAT! Kept us informed by text and pictures. Took Lucy, or dog, on walks, which Lucy loved. Was very accommodating when Lucy was not willing to eat her regular dog food. Instructed Carrie to give Lucy some of her favorite treats, which did the trick. When we went to pick Lucy up to go home, she jumped on Carrie to give a good bye, you know then that she felt at home with Carrie.
Emily, Tim and family did a great job taking care of Nieve. It was a last minute booking and I was really appreciative of them stepping up. Solid communication especially when Nieve wasn’t feeling well and Emily had to provide some extra care. Thank you so much.
Stacy and Michael are wonderful hosts! Their dog, Nina, is such a sweet girl and was great company for my Lyra! They watched her over the 4th of July weekend knowing my Lyra is a bit of a scardy pup. (She gets pretty spooked by fireworks and likes to go hide). They showed a lot of patience and kindness with her, even helped her get unstuck from one of her hiding places. When I arrived Lyra up, they were actively holding and comforting her. These two really care about their guests and I'm not going to hesitate to bring Lyra by again!
Leo had a great stay with Ashley and her family. We did a meet and greet and her dogs allowed Leo to be with them immediately. As best I can tell Leo loved his time there- he came home and was his ordinary self. Ashley had noticed him shaking at one point during his stay and then that it was raining- so Leo needed his med to calm down. It seemed like Leo was in a home were he was loved and accepted and comfortable. We are glad to have found Ashley.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. 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.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
