“Christine has been our caregiver of choice for a long time. She is so patient with our elderly and anxious pup who continues to develop more and more issues. We appreciate her soooo much!”


“Our dog Charley had the time of his life during his stay with Taylor. He had so much fun that our family was was worried he wouldn't want to come back home with us. She had an extra gps collar that Charley used so we knew when he was taken out and he got to go on so many walks! Taylor and her family went above and beyond with our dog. She brushed him out for us multiple times, her kids gave Charley so much play time and attention, and they even made Charley a special Christmas dinner! I can't say enough good things about this wonderful family. We received many updates and pictures of Charley having his dream vacation. It was so nice to not have to worry about him while we were on vacation. We live in St. Cloud and it was well worth the drive to ensure Charley had the best care possible. Highly recommend this family!”


“We're so thankful for Caitlin and her ability to take our boy Yogi for a last minute overnight stay. She's patient and kind and didn't judge him at all for being so overexcited lol. We're so happy to have found Caitlin and will definitely trust her with our boy again.”


“Lucy had a good time with Amy, Gregory and their family. She got along with the family's other pets and they enjoyed her and sent lots of pictures and updates. I am very comfortable with their care for Lucy and have scheduled again with them.”


“I highly recommend Jackie! I received many pictures of my pups while I was away which was very reassuring for me. I will most definitely look for her again the next time I need someone. She also has a fenced in background which was perfect for a ton of play time.”


“Sydney was able to help us out on short notice and everything went very smoothly. Our dog seemed very well cared for, communication was great and her home was very well suited for pet sitting.”


“Thank you Olivia for taking care of our small dog "Anderson"!!! We appreciate the meet & greet, friendlyness, your home and big fenced in backyard, pictures of "Anderson" while we were away, ease of drop off and pick up! You and family are the best!!”


“Amanda was fantastic! She was genuinely excited to care for our pup. Meeting up was easy and Amanda was attentive to details and for our care routine. She provided updates each day and included pictures of all the fun our dog was having. We felt confident that our dog received excellent care. When we need help in the future, Amanda will be our first choice. Thank you!!”


“Kajae and Emily were awesome with Zoey. This was Zoey's first time staying with someone and away from home. They provided me with pictures and videos of Zoey playing with them and their daughter. I appreciated their involvement with her and knowing she was a bit nervous but they made her feel right at home. Thank you Emily and Kajae, also thanks to Brooke and their pet Sage!”


“We are so grateful to Hannah and her family for taking in our high energy very spoiled dog last minute for the weekend ! She was great to work with, sent updates and my dog came back happy and stress free !”


“OMG! As a 1st time user to Rover, we were nervous to leave our pups with a stranger + other dogs. We arranged a meet and greet, just to make sure. No issues what-so-ever. Our pups didn't bark or growl once; which is common for them with strangers___was a great 1st meet. Many pictures and videos were sent to reassure us. They played the entire 2 days, were comfortable enough to chew on bones and snuggle at night. She allowed Captain to hide when loud noises scared him and Biscuit to snuggle close at bed time.They both passed out cold for hours after getting home, not from stress, but from fresh air and playing. We will use her again and again”


“Crystal was great to work with. She was friendly and responsive and sent updates about how my dogs were doing. She was also kind and flexible when the weather was bad, and we asked to shift the drop-off times.”


“Debra was so loving to my little 12 lb guy, treating him like the prince he thinks he is. He enjoyed playing with his new dog friends and didn't seem to want to leave when I picked him up. I would definitely recommend. Debra!”


“Ashley was amazing! She made sure that our dog, Louie, would get along with her dogs first before watching him! We met at a dog park and let our dogs mingle! She took the time to let us know how Louie was doing and even sent pictures of him, which we loved! He's a pooped pup after leaving there so I know he had fun!”


“Natalie watched our 2 goldens and they had an absolute blast. They were easily entertained by the land and kiddos. We were sent ample pictures and videos throughout the entire week and would love to use Natalie again next time we’re out of town!!”


About: I am a retired nurse with 37 years of having 1-3 dogs in my house at a time. Currently I do not have any, and I miss it! I am retired and my days would be dedicated to your pup. I have plenty of free time and I enjoy going for walks on the Wobegon trail next to my house. I have 2.5 acres, though not fenced in. There is plenty of room for your dog to run, sleep, and play. They would have free range of the house and it’s very safe.
