“Kristen and her family are wonderful. Leo was happy to come home but seemed to have bene well cared for. There's love and activity at their home. We are glad they are close by.”
“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!”
“Thank you, Nicole & David! We know are dog is in the best hands with you two. I apologize for being late to the pick-up and appreciate your grace. Thank you so much!”
“Got frequent updates and our pup seemed to love the environment! Monika was very welcoming and understanding when it came to certain instructions with our dog will definitely go back for future stays:)”
“Lan took great care of our dog Jorah, while we were away for the weekend, would 100% recommend Lan to anyone in need of a pet sitter and will utilize her in the future! She sent us pictures of Jorah every day and let us know how he was doing! She was always quick to respond as well.”
“This was our first Rover experience and I couldn't be happier! We had open communication and photos the whole time. Carrie was great for Burt and even made special accomodations. Highly recommend!!”
“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 ❤️”
“Jenny and Mark took excellent care of our dog over 2 weeks. Communication was easy and we received regular updates. I would definitely have them dog sit again!”
“Robert is excellent, he sends photos and videos, I always feel good leaving our girl with Robert and his wife because I know they take great care of her and love her as their own.”
“Roxanne did a wonderful job taking care of my pup while we were on vacation. Keeps me posted everyday and sends me wonderful pictures of puppy's lovely staycation. Will definitely go back if I ever needed someone to watch my pup. Thanks Roxanne ?”
“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!”
“We've been coming to Mike for years now. We feel that our dog is in good hands. Mike is flexible on pick ups and drop offs, good communicator and provides pictures during the stay which is always appreciated. I highly recommend Mike.”
“Hollie died a great job with Monte. This was his first stay away from his family & I was NERVOUS, even though we did a meet & greet before booking. Hollie walked me through the Rover process and was kind at every step. Hollie provided plenty of photos, videos, and updates, especially the first night & morning. It sounds like Monte had fun and his playful personality (sock stealing) shined through for them. I will definitely go to Hollie first for any dog boarding that we may need.”
“Trudy, her family and their doodle were great hosts for my dog. They are calm and attentive, and they included my dog in their activities. I appreciated receiving daily photos -- I could see that my dog was content. Would definitely use again. Thank you!”
“🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Ashley is Incredible! Ashley watched our French Bulldog, Blue Bell, for 5 days, and she was absolutely wonderful! Frenchies definitely come with their own unique quirks and big personalities, but Ashley didn't skip a beat. She completely embraced Blue Bell's quirkiness and made sure she felt comfortable, happy, and loved the entire time. It is such a relief to find a sitter who truly understands and appreciates your dog's individual personality. Ashley is a genuine dog lover—reliable, attentive, and is very knowledgeable about different types of dogs. We will absolutely be using her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for top-tier care!”
“Carman was a delight and we felt very comfortable leaving our two dogs with her. She sent pictures and took them outside to play and they seemed very comfortable and at ease when we picked them up. Carman stayed up late for us to pick them up at 11pm which we also greatly appreciated. I would highly recommend Carman, and will definitely ask her to take care of our pups in the future.”
“Simon was incredible with my cats. I needed pet sitting on short notice and he was a life saver. He sent so many photos and videos and my cats loved him. I highly recommend Simon.”
“Katie and her two pups were the best hosts! Whenever Katie send over pictures, I could tell my dog was comfortable and happy! Would highly recommend booking with her”
South Saint Paul dog parents share their Rover experiences
Hollie has been so welcoming, responsive, and understanding of our dog's needs. Our dog is sometimes anxious staying in new places, but she settled into Hollie's place very quickly. Hollie was reassuring and sent pictures throughout her short stay. We look forward to our dog staying with her again!
Simon was very friendly and knowledgeable on caring for Ramzy. He introduced him to multiple different dogs, so while we were away, it just seemed like Ramzy was on his own little vacay with friends. Updated me daily with pictures and videos I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter.
Jon did an excellent job taking care of our 8 1/2 year old husky, Kimchi. Kimchi adapted very well to their home, and I could tell through pictures, she was comfortable staying there. Jon followed my instructions and the routines I had established with Kimchi. It was very positive to receive his feedback along with the pictures sent showing Kimchi in her new environment, on walks, sleeping on the couch, etc. Kimchi had access to a fenced in backyard which allowed her to run freely and get that extra energy out of her. Jon was very easy to communicate with and responded to any questions I had in a timely manner. It was the first time I had utilized his services for overnight boarding. I most definitely will book with him again when needed. Jon and his wife are very friendly and approachable. It brought me great peace of mind knowing she was in good care while my husband and I were out of the country for 9 days.
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!
