“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.”
“Bethany was so warm and welcoming and a perfect fit for my anxious very attached dog Hawkie. We were able to coordinate a visit in advance to see how he did and he did so well! I knew this was a perfect fit for my dog. I received photos and regular updates on how he was doing and it really put my mind at ease to know my sweet baby was being loved and pampered. I will definitely book with Bethany again in the future. She is a true gem! Thank you so much!”
“This is the 4th or 5th time that Kosmo has stayed with Nicole & David, and she just loves it. She's always so excited when we pull up to their house. Nicole & David are terrific - we are so lucky to have found them!”
“Another great visit with Lan for my Labradoodle, Buddy. As always, she was great, taking special care of my little guy while I was away for nearly three weeks. Really appreciated her flexibility when we needed to adjust our return date. It was so good to know he was in good hands and having so much fun playing with her dog, Lucy.”
“Lilo loves to stay with Roxanne! She enjoys the time exploring her fenced in yard and all the snuggles she gets as well. We appreciate the twice daily updates from Roxanne and the many wonderful photos she takes. Lilo requires meds three times per day and we are so thankful to Roxanne for taking such good care of our sweet girl. Thank you Roxanne!”
“Thank you Jenny and Mark! Our older lab was well taken care of and we appreciated the updates and pictures sent over the weekend. Thanks again!”
“Our dog recently completed her first stay with Mike and he did an amazing job! He frequently sent us pictures which helped us to know that she was doing okay, and he has a lot of experience with different kinds of dogs. We will definitely be using him again!”
“My pup Willow spent a week with Stacy, Michael, and their dog Nina. She had a blast, came home, slept for several days, and was well cared for. The couple took so many pictures that Rover put together a video to music for me to view and share on Facebook! It's adorable!! Great job, Rover!”
“Jessica and her family took great care of Hank while we were gone! When my husband went to pick him up, he said that Hank initially started going back to the house instead of the car. Definitely a testament to how he was treated and how much he enjoyed being there. I also appreciated the updates and pictures. We would definitely trust Jessica to watch Hank again.”
“Our dog just loves going to see Hollie and her husband! They give her lots of outside time and snuggles. Hollie sends daily updates on how she’s doing as well, which I appreciate. We will definitely have them watch Nova in the future.”
“Dylan and his family were wonderful and patient with our dog Bailey. She was well cared for and treated like family. Having once had a dog, this family knew how to take care of a dog!”
“Andrea was communicative and we knew we could trust her with our dogs the moment we met her! She was very flexible, which we appreciated as we were looking for a rover while in town for a long weekend. Our dogs had a blast! If we are ever back in Minneapolis with our dogs, wr will definitely reach out to her again.”
“The Kenneys are kind and hospitable pets and their bipeds alike. They went above and beyond to ensure our furry family felt at home while we were away. In addition to taking them on fun adventures to nearby Lebanon Hills, their dog Archie was a perfect playmate. We would strongly recommend them to anyone looking to make sure their fur babies are left in good hands.”
“They were amazing with Cooper! I feel so comfortable leaving him with them again. You can tell they really love dogs and they take care of their boarders like their own ❤️”
“Sunshine is very happy after coming back from Dawn's house. I can imagine how much she was loved by Dawn's family. Dawn sent me lots of photos and videos that my pully played with another puppy and it made me feel great. She is very professional and I will definitely go back to Dawn for another time.”
“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!!!”
“This was the first time we had the pleasure of working with Monika and family and all I can say is we would 100% use them again! They were so kind and caring and our golden retriever, Willow, had an amazing time there. I got plenty of pictures of her having fun with their other dogs, as well as snuggling with the humans in the household. They were amazing to work with and flexible when our travel plans changed slightly. I would highly recommend booking with this family!”
“Robert sent photos and videos everyday. He really picked up on our dog's personalities. We will definitely use him again and recommend him to others. The dogs had a great time!”
“Great experience with Emily and family. We rarely use dog sitters we do not know and I was nervous about how Maisy would do. Emily was a great communicator and very responsive. She kept me updated with pictures and texts. Maisy seemed to have a great time with their sweet dog and lovely family. Huge backyard to play in! Maisy came home happy and tired out! Thank you!”

South Saint Paul dog parents share their Rover experiences
This was our first Rover booking, and we couldn't be happier with James & Jennifer. Our 6 month old puppy was very well cared for, and he really enjoyed being able to watch birds at their bird feeder. We really appreciated the communication and pictures. Highly recommend!!!
Jon and his wife did a fantastic job of taking care of our Anne. Took her for walks and maintained our daily routine of cleaning her ears. They also sent pictures of her on her doggie vacation. We would have Anne stay with them again if they are willing and able to watch again.
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.
Leo had a great stay with Ashley and her family. We did a meet and greet and her dogs allowed Leo to be with them immediately. As best I can tell Leo loved his time there- he came home and was his ordinary self. Ashley had noticed him shaking at one point during his stay and then that it was raining- so Leo needed his med to calm down. It seemed like Leo was in a home were he was loved and accepted and comfortable. We are glad to have found Ashley.
Allison was a wonderful sitter for our young pup, Oskar! He’s 5 months old and has only been boarded one other time, so it’s a lot of “newness” for him, and she took it all in stride. She asked questions that made us feel like she had his best interest in mind, she sent daily photos and we could tell Oskar really liked her! He was in great spirits when we picked him up and we are grateful!
Kristina was such a blessing to find to watch our doggos! We did a meet and greet with the dogs prior to the stay. She communicated frequently with videos and pictures and we were updated multiple times a day that gave us peace of mind while we were out of state. Ru and Lu were very comfortable with her. Definitely would book her for her services again, hands down!
