“We were really happy we went with Andrew for Teddys stay. He was great when we dropped Teddy off, let us come in and see the place and got to see how Teddy did with their dog. While we were gone, we received daily updates and could tell Teddy looked happy which makes leaving easier! We would use Andrew again”
“Miss Stacey did an awesome job with my little buddy Bailey. She is very conscientious and very caring. I'll be definitely using her again when I need someone I trust to watch him.”
“Brittany and her husband were GREAT!! She watched our dog Tucker for a few days while we were moving. She kept us up to date on how he was doing, and followed all of our instructions caring for him. We really appreciated her flexibility in timing dropping him off and picking him up - we unexpectedly needed to extend our booking an extra night, and was happy to accommodate this last-minute. I recommend Brittany without reservation - we'll definitely be re-booking in the future!”

Would definitely book again and I recommend Brenna for anxious dogs.”

Shakopee dog parents share their Rover experiences
We had a wonderful experience! From the very beginning, communication was easy and reliable—they responded quickly, answered all our questions, and made us feel completely at ease about leaving our dog in their care. During the stay, we really appreciated the regular updates, including messages and photos. It was so reassuring to see how happy and comfortable our dog was the whole time. It’s clear they genuinely care and pay close attention to each pet’s needs. Most importantly, they took excellent care of our dog. We came home to a relaxed, happy pup, which says everything. We would absolutely book with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive sitter!
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!!
Destiny and her family are absolutely wonderful. Gibson my Golden Doodle just loves going to their house. He gets plenty of play time, running in back yard and hanging out. They know his little quirks and how to deal with him. Would highly recommend them. Gibson is pooped out when I pick him up and I can tell he had fun.
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!
