“Lan did a great job caring for Martha and Susan! The picture update was appreciated, but girls looked very happy. Lan’s dog, Lucy, was adorable and friendly.”
“Kyle provided a comfortable stay for my dog Len's first Rover experience. Even though it was a pretty short stay it was so nice to get pictures and an update on how Len was doing. Will definitely be using Kyle again!”
“Jenny was very accommodating, willing to take care of Rex on such short notice. We were updated every day with photos, communication was prompt and I would not hesitate to use her again!!”
“Eva is always soooo amazing with our pup. He gets spoiled and gets to see a lot of new places with her. He always comes home happy. Eva also went above and beyond and delivered his forgotten dog bed to our house!! So grateful for Eva.”
“We were going to a family wedding, and worried about leaving our puppy. Miriam quickly diminished any worries. Flint immediately loved her. She shared pictures. Communication was great. Very happy to have left him in such good hands!!!”
“Kristen and her family helped us out over a weekend. Her young girls have a lot of energy but she kept and eye on our Leo to be sure they were good with him. He sleeps a lot and they let him do that. All evidence was that Leo was cared for.”
“Katie is an amazing sitter. She watched our dog Ramen for a week. She kept him active with walks and took so many pictures/videos. Her dogs are so cute and they became bffs. We were so lucky to have Katie as our sitter. Her communication is exceptional and I can tell she really loves what she does. Please have Ramen back!”
“We love Takenya! This was our third time boarding our dog Daisy with her and as always, she took wonderful care of her and sent lots of photos and videos. Daisy is always so excited to see her, which makes leaving her so much easier. Takenya will continue to be our go to sitter whenever we’re out of town.”
“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!”
“Remy and Kevin were amazing! My dog had such a great time! They sent pictures and gave me updates, which helped ease the sadness of being away from my little guy. I would highly recommend and will be using their services again.”
“Andrea loves dogs. And she knows how to treat them well. I knew this from the sensitivity of the first introduction. It was confirmed when I picked up my little dog. We’ll be back.”
“Amanda suggested a meet & greet for our dogs a couple days prior to boarding to introduce our dogs. This was helpful for my dog to familiarize himself. She sent texts with updates on play daily activities and photos.”
“This was Bucks first experience boarding with Robert, and we will for sure be repeat customers! Right from first request, communication was quick and informative. I chose Robert based on his positive reviews, and I am happy to be adding to them now! Even though it was just an overnight stay I got pictures and updates on how Buck was doing. Buck looked happy in every photo. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Robert again when I need to board Buck!”

Saint Paul dog parents share their Rover experiences
Hula had a wonderful time with Alicia, Lexy & Maya!! This is our first experience using Rover and it was very easy & a positive experience! Alicia sent us multiple photos & updates for us while Hula was in her care. Hula was very happy & relaxed when we picked her up, so we know she had a fun time. We definitely plan on using Rover again!
Katie and Josh were absolutely fantastic dog sitters. They were great communicators, so friendly, and incredibly patient and kind with my anxious Pomeranian. I felt totally at ease knowing she was in such caring, attentive hands. I can’t recommend them enough and will definitely be using them again!
Gabbi was so great boarding our pup again, even during a frigid weekend! He's a sensitive guy who can't go on walks when it's super cold, and she he made sure he had fun, was comfortable, and got all the cozy snuggles he wanted. We got lots of updates and knew he was being treated like a little prince ;) Looking forward to booking again soon!
Angela watched our dogs on short notice after the family friend who regularly watches them cancelled two days in advance of our departure date. She is very dog-savvy. Right-away, she let them into the backyard to find and "mark" their spots. They got along well with her puppy, but because they are older, she also allowed them quiet time when there were no puppy antics underway. Our border collie got to spend lots of time outside, which he loves, but doesn't get much of because we do not have a fenced yard. Angela sent several pictures of our dogs every day, which was sweet and reassuring. Apart from 2 weeks with my daughter, our dogs who are both going on 13 have not spent time away from home since they were one year old. Our dog who is very insecure was very unhappy - but nothing that coming home and several meals of Kowalski's meatloaf could not fix.
Kristine went above and beyond taking care of my dog. My travel plans unexpectedly went awry and she made sure I wasn’t even more stressed while everything was going on by taking excellent care of maggie. Every day she sent videos and updates, and my dog really got along well in the household. I will definitely be rebooking whenever I need my dog to be taken care of. This was my first time using Rover so I was a bit nervous, but I highly recommend booking with Kristine.
I have a fussy, dramatic French bulldog that can't stay with just anyone. Katie took him into her home with zero issues and shared pictures of him cuddling with her on the couch and making himself at home. Katie does a wonderful job and has excellent communication too. I highly recommend her.
Sarah took wonderful care of our dog while we were away for a week. We received many happy updates of naps, walks and play time. Sarah was a great communicator taking extra steps to ensure our dog was happy and comfortable. We were able to enjoy our vacation even more knowing our dog was in good hands! We highly recommend Sarah for your pet care and we would book again. Thank you, Sarah!
Reegan was wonderful for our pups. Our Labrador had gotten his paws pretty sore on the ice prior to us bringing him to her and she was very understanding and patient. She diligently put shoes on him for going out and rested him until his paws were healed up. Our other dog absolutely loved her dog Butch and both our pups looked relaxed and happy at pick up. She was also great about communicating every day. Highly recommend!
