1. Sydney P.

“Our dog got unexpextedly sick while we were awaynand Sydney went above and beyond to take care of him. Great communication and care for our fur baby. Will definitely use again.”


2. Natalie J.

“Natalie was simply amazing!! She exceeded our expectations and was wonderful with our two big dogs. Our Bernese Mountain dog is a bit of handful, yet; she was unfazed and embraced his energy. We could tell she was attentive with them and sent many messages and videos of our precious dogs. She left our home immaculate and went beyond making sure everything was in order when we arrived home. We are very lucky to have found her and would absolutely use her again!”




3. Kristen P.

“After not being able to get our 2 1/2 Golden Retriever Max in a boarding kennel I decided to go on Rover. I am so happy that I was able to connect with Kristen. She was fantastic. She came to our house to meet Max before the dates we were to be gone. We were able to take a family vacation while Kristen stayed in our home with Max. She was great about sending pictures and videos while we were gone. Having Max in his own home while we were away was such peace of mind. I would highly recommend Kristen and will reach out to her for future vacations.”


4. Tori W.

“Tori took fantastic care of our Susie (50-ish pound dog) while we had to be away for family events. Susie got lots of walks, pets, and was well taken care of. Tori's love of animals is evident the first time you see her interact with your pets. Do not hesitate to reach out to Tori for your dog/house sitting needs. Highly recommended.”


5. Hannah S.

“Hannah was absolutely amazing at taking care of our dog while we were away. She was super respectful, responsive and attentive. Our guy is a foster and she went above and beyond to help and comfort him.”

“Adrienne is an excellent dog sitter, I'm glad I hired her for this past weekend at my place. I was even gone a little past what I quoted for time frame and she was incredibly understanding!! Chance warmed up to her right away which is always a great sign - and I felt at ease when I was gone. Will definitely hire her again!”




7. Jamie S.

“Huge thank you to Jamie for taking care of our 2 girls while we were on our honeymoon! We have very high energy, anxious dogs that are not always the easiest to manage. It was evident how patient Jamie was with them since by the end of the week she was sending us photos of our dogs resting and snuggling with her! Thanks again!”




8. Alexandra O.

“Alex is the best! I almost don’t want to leave a raving review because I want to keep her all to myself!! My husband and I are new to Minneapolis and had to leave town suddenly for a family emergency. Alex really saved us. She came to meet me and the dogs before I left town and I was immediately at ease leaving my babies in her hands. She sent sweet updates daily and left our house cleaner than I left it!”


9. Camille T.


“We have used Camille many times and are thoroughly impressed with her professionalism, communication with us throughout her stay and her wonderful care for our pets.

We can truly relax while we are away from home as we know she will stay in touch with updates. We Highly Highly recommend!”


10. Teresa P.


“Teresa is the best. We had to make adjustments to our trip due to the global IT situation, and Teresa was more than accommodating. She took excellent care of our girls Sophie and Holly and our house at the same time. We highly recommend Teresa; she is extremely professional and caring at the same time.”

“Anna did great with our dogs! She sent such good updates, pictures and videos. A severe storm hit while she was staying and she also provided a thorough walkthrough of our property to ensure nothing was damaged. We think our dogs loved spending time with her! Well definitely see if she’s available to sit again in the future!”

She communicates and thinks about the little things and big things. And, she has an obvious love for dogs and it shows. She’ll be our go-to as long as she’ll have us!”


16. Deborah P.

“My babies had a great time with Deb.”

Stella is a 15-year-old puggle who moves at a slower pace and loves her naps. Kira was incredibly communicative, sending plenty of updates and photos, which gave us peace of mind. We truly appreciated her care and attention to Stella’s needs. We will definitely be reaching out to Kira again! Highly recommend!”
