“Lauren and Michael were wonderful! They watched Ringo over our wedding weekend, and we felt so comfortable with them. They sent pictures and he looked so happy, they tolerated his many kisses, and let us come over the week before to meet them. Will definitely use them again, Ringo had a blast!”


“Thank you, Nicole & David! We know are dog is in the best hands with you two. I apologize for being late to the pick-up and appreciate your grace. Thank you so much!”


“Our two girls, Artemis and Freyja, seemed to have a great time at Mckenzie's place. We received pictures and updates which made us feel better about leaving them.”


“We were very happy that Charlie was available to care for our Bernese Mountain dog. We took our dog for a meet and greet before the stay. Charlie was focused on our dog and her interaction with other dogs and humans. He had a big fenced yard too. Charlie provided regular updates during our trip. We would recommend Charlie for those looking to board their dog in the Twin Cities.”


“Susan made Elmer feel at home. He is a timid guy but by the time I picked him up, he was his normal happy self! Thank you Susan for making him feel so comfortable. We hope to see you again soon!”


“Highly recommend! Sheryl is a loving caregiver to her furry visitors. She was thorough with questions as to what Indi likes best, and then it was clear from the photos she sent every day that Indi was enjoying his time with her. His relaxed and playful side came out in her care.”


“Betsy took wonderful care of our aging dog Corkie. We received regular updates with photos during his stay. Having a meet and greet helped Corkie be more comfortable with the new environment, and also helped us know he would be well taken care of.”


“Robert was great with our family dog Izzy. She is truly a member of our family and we always feel bad leaving her behind when we go out of town and Robert did a wonderful job sending pictures and videos to let us know how she is doing. Would definitely recommend Robert and plan on using him again in the future.”


“Amy was a fantastic sitter for my reactive and shy pup! She was gentle with Bella and gave her a fabulous environment: sleeping in the bed (what Bella is used to!), tons of blankets and attention, and a comfy window chair where she could watch the outside world. I'll be re-booking with Amy again.”


“This was our first Rover experience. I was very nervous to leave my dog for the first time. Barbara did a great job at easing my worries and making Louie really comfortable. She was also really flexible with some changes we had to make to drop off and pick up times.I would defiantly use Barbara’s services again.”



“Our pup Hugo had another fantastic stay with Lydia. He loves being there and interacting with her and her dogs. She’s always great at communicating and we get tons of pics of our dog. Highly recommend! She is amazing and so caring of our dog.”


“Our chihuahua/terrier Fitz loved his stays with Lan! He returns to her house with a hop in his step, running full speed ahead into her arms. His behavior says it all - he feels safe and we’ll cared for. What more could we ask? We live out of town and connected with Lan on a family visit - we hope to have Lan care for Fitz in future visits!”


“Deanna is amazing! Our Finn was so well taken care of and Deanna communicated daily with me to let me know he was doing. He got to relax outside, run around with his new furry friends and enjoyed lots of daily walks. I’m so grateful that we found Deanna!”


“This was the best dog sitting experience I can imagine! Ellen was quick and clear in communication prior to booking and made it very easy when we decided to do a Meet and Greet. She went above and beyond to make things as simple as possible to accommodate my travel and preferences. Ellen sent the cutest pictures and updates while I was away, and it was clear my dog could not have been in better hands!”



“Our dog, Hems, had such a great time at Doc & Heather's house! We felt so relaxed on our trip knowing Hems was having fun and behaving - thank you for all the great updates and pictures. She got a lot of playtime and attention! Will definitely be booking again for our next trip. Thank you again for a great experience!”


“Sunny loved spending the weekend with Amanda, Leif and their kids! They made Sunny feel right at home and probably gave him even more attention! Wonderful fenced in backyard too. Would definitely recommend!”


“These folks are amazing! My little girl can have quite the attitude problem as chihuahuas do, but they have such a loving home and family that she quickly settled in for cuddles and made herself right at home. Otis even shared his spot on the couch. Will definitely use them again.”


“Alexis was able to watch Luca on short notice. It was nice to have a fenced backyard that Luca enjoyed. Good communication and she sent me many pictures during his stay there. Look forward to our next stay there”


“Linda took such good care of Charlie! He is a shy guy and I could tell he felt very comfortable with Linda. I am so relieved to find a dog sitter I can rely on.”
