“Amazing Care for Our High-Energy Doodle Puppy! We couldn't have been happier with the care Jeremiah provided for our energetic doodle puppy during his three-day stay. Finding someone who can handle a young, high-energy dog is crucial, and Jeremiah exceeded all our expectations. Their home is incredibly clean and nice, and the fenced backyard was perfect for our puppy to burn off steam safely. It was a huge bonus that they have their own sweet doodle—our guy had an absolute blast making a new friend and getting constant companionship! Communication was prompt and reassuring. We received updates and very cute pictures via text throughout the stay, which made us feel completely at ease. They took him on multiple walks and ensured he received excellent care and attention the entire time. Overall, our puppy truly enjoyed his stay, and we are totally satisfied. We will absolutely be repeat customers and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a loving, responsible, and fun home for their dog!”
“Olive didn’t want to leave Vanessa and Andrew (& the kids)! She seemed to have a very good time and found a good routine. They sent daily pics when I asked for them. All went great!! Thanks so much! I had a lot of anxiety but feel so much better now knowing she’s in good hands.”
“Kristin and her family were great. Walked the dogs daily, sent pics, reported on how they were doing. We had to change our drop off time to 6:30am, and she didn’t hesitate to be up early to make that work.”
“Hank had a wonderful time at Andrew’s. He had lots of outside play time with his dog, Gunnar. He even got to take naps on the girls beds while she did her schoolwork. He came home relaxed and happy. He would love to stay with Andrew and his girls again!”
“Brenna was a great communicator and our Frenchie appeared very comfortable at her house. We enjoyed our vacation more knowing he was being cared for in a dog loving home, instead of at a kennel. Thank you Brenna!”
“Frank and Clarissa were great! They’re responsive and attentive and provided excellent updates. We were glad to have them watch our dog without any concern or incident while away.”
“Shelby was terrific with my dog. It was her first time away from us in a long time. Shelby sent lots of pics and took her on lots of trail walks, which she loves. She seemed very happy and we will definitely hire Shelby again to take care of our dog when we are away!”
“Mochi spent a full week with Carine and her family, and it went very well. Communication was excellent - Carine was attentive to all the details we shared and very responsive via text. We received updates throughout each day and during our trip, which we really appreciated. My kids loved seeing photos and updates of Mochi playing and cuddling with her kids. He was truly treated like one of their own, and it was clear how much he was loved, he will genuinely be missed by their family. Carine was also thoughtful about managing energy levels when another dog was staying at the same time and always checked in first. We felt completely comfortable leaving Mochi in her care and would absolutely use her again.”
“Our dog Rio had a BLAST with Rachelle and Dan. They were very detailed oriented when it came to Rio’s special needs. They also sent the perfect amount of updates and pictures throughout the stay. Definitely will book again!”
“Ann was amazing. She took care of our senior dog with some medical needs and aging and gave Louise exactly what she needed with such positive kindness. We got pictures and videos and felt like our sweet little old lady dog was truly in the best care during our trip. I will definitely use Ann again because she was incredible.”
“Steven and Diane took amazing care of our dogs! We were able to drop the dogs off a day early due to our flight being changed and everything went super smooth! They sent us updates and photos through the week as well. We will 100% book again!”
“Valerie and her family, including the lovely Daisy, are wonderful and took our dog Felix in as their own. We felt like he was in great hands during our trip. We would absolutely choose to work with Valerie again. What a great experience!”
“Stacey took such great care of our Tucker while we were on spring break. She was flexible and communicated with us throughout the week. I would highly recommended her and will have her watch our dog again soon.”
“We left our dog with Brittney for a full week while we were on vacation. It was our first experience with Rover and we were beyond pleased with our experience and the care Pippa received! We will absolutely be choosing Brittney again for future dog sitting needs we have.”
“I can't describe how happy I am that I found Lonni and Steve! I have a very hard time dropping off my chihuahua to be watched and the love that Lonni and Steve have for him puts me at ease. Their love and care for dogs is incredibly genuine and it shows. Rarely do I trust anyone with my dog and I was able to leave him with Lonni and Steve for 8 nights and was very comfortable that he was getting the absolute best care, attention and love. They watch out for his needs, make sure he is comfortable and even adjust their schedules around him. I'm so grateful that we found them and will continue to ask them to care for our little guy.”

Jenn is amazing! She was there when another Rover sitter canceled on us a week before we were scheduled to go on vacation. She communicates extremely well and sent us a couple of photos while we were away. Thank you Jenn! We greatly appreciate your caring for our dog! <3
We had such a wonderful experience with Mandy! If you're like our family, we always worry about finding the perfect sitter who will love on our dogs like we do (Golden Doodles love their extra snuggles :-) and Mandy far exceeded our expectations. We received regular updates and photos, but more importantly she really cared about what their normal routines were and ensure she provided that- from walks to cuddle time- our dogs were treated like her family! If you're reading this reviewing stressing about leaving your pets behind, do not hesitate to book Mandy. Best experienced we've ever had! Mandy, thank you for opening your home to our beloved pets and loving them like you're own. We didn't worry once while away! Our dogs came home happy and relaxed! It was truly the best experience!
We loved the updates and pictures of Lola. It was comforting to know she was in great hands. Her being able to be in a home environment where she can look out the windows and sleep on the couch or bed is just what she needs. Thanks Paul! Lola can’t wait till next time.
As always, Sarah is the best. She has love our dogs like they were her own. She sends frequent updates and photos to let us know how our girl is doing. She was wonderful in introducing Woody to our Sweet P and I had every confidence that Sarah was the right one to help socialize our puppy. Sarah is calm and knowledgeable and she is our #1 for our Twin Cities sitting needs!!
Stephanie took such great care of my new 9 week old puppy, Ivy! As a new dog mom, it was very comforting to know my puppy was well cared for! Stephanie had great communication and sent me pictures of Ivy throughout the evening. It was a very short notice request and she was very flexible with booking. I highly recommend Stephanie!
