“Sarah took great care of our dog and cat while we were away for a few days, watched over the house, and kept everything going. She kept us informed and asked questions, and followed tips and requests in a way that gave us peace of mind and confidence. Both pets seemed to really like her, and we look forward to working with her again.”

“Ciboney was great with our medically complex dog and our super shy cat! She stayed in our house and left it clean and orderly, went above and beyond connecting with my cat and making him less scared, and had no problem pilling my dog twice a day. Definitely worth her rate, and I wouldn't think twice rebooking with her.”

Not only did she keep him incredibly happy and well-cared for, but she also managed to keep our house impeccably tidy. Her dedication and care are truly amazing. Thank you, Marykay, for being so wonderful!”

“Jessica was fantastic. She stayed in our apartment and was super communicative and responsive organizing the logistics, understood everything we explained and we felt reassured after doing the meet and greet that he will be left in good hands. She sent photos at least 3X / day, it was clear that Tucker loved her as he was snuggling up next to Jessica on the couch. Will definitely book her again, and I recommend her without reservation to anyone looking for a sitter!”

Divya was excellent! Very communicative and left the house in great shape. We left our dog with her for ten days and he seemed very happy and calm when we returned! Brushed Dakota a lot and always sent pictures. Would definitely recommend booking her for anything!

Serena took phenomenal care of Michi while we were out of town for 4 days. She was very communicative & provided daily updates in the AM & PM, which I appreciated. Serena was very caring & tender—Michi’s needs are higher, she needs daily oral medication & occasionally needs to be hand fed, Serena took the time to do these things to ensure Michi kept well & healthy. Serena was also very respectful of our space, our home & when we returned, it was just as we left it. We’d recommend Serena to anyone needing quality care for their pet! Thank you so much, Serena!!

Literally the most above and beyond Rover you could ask for. Aftyn watched Franklin during our wedding weekend. My wife’s sister secretly reached out and Aftyn brought Frank to the courthouse to surprise us and get some pictures taken. She delivered and was great with Frank while watching him too. 100 out of 5!

We appreciate Kendall so much. She is kind to the dogs, super communicative to the dog parents and thoughtful about the house. One of our dogs needs to take medication on a strict schedule and Kendall does that with ease. She’s wonderful.

Katie was awesome and it was one of the best dog-sitting experiences we’ve had. We have a senior dog who prefers to stay in our home when we need to be away. Katie was communicative and sent regular updates and photos, took great care of our dog, and left the house just as she found it. When we returned home, our dog was happy and comfortable - not anxious and stressed as she’s been at other times when we’ve returned. We couldn’t be happier with Katie and would use her again without hesitation. Thank you, Katie!

Madeline stayed in my home with my cat, Juan, for 10 days, and she was amazing! Juan really bonded with her, and her communication was top-notch throughout my trip. When he stopped eating for a couple of days, she let me know immediately, spoke with the vet clinic, restarted some of his medications, and picked up different food options. Thanks to her attentiveness and interventions, she was able to get him eating again. I came home to a tidy house and clean bedding. I will definitely have Madeline care for Juan again!

I felt very comfortable leaving my home and special kitties with Oliver. I got updates and photos, and I have lots of plants indoors and outdoors, and all were fine when I returned. Lots of watering got done! The towels and sheets were washed and the bed made. Great job.

Anna is one of the best dog sitters we have ever had (and we use Rover A LOT!)! She is a good communicator, conscientious, very respectful of what might be our weird doggy rules, and of course, responsible. What I especially love is that she seems to take her caretaker role seriously. Meaning, she doesn't give us the vibe like, "Hey, I'm doing YOU a favor," like we've experienced in the past. She takes her role as it is: She is paid to complete a service according to our requirements. So, if she thinks she might not be able to do it as we've asked, she checks in on it. We love that. We love that she takes that ownership over her role and our communication together. She'll always be our first call here in MN!

Danny stepped in for a very last minute request to care for my dog. She was very easy to work with and had great communication. While we were away, Danny sent updates and pictures. Scout was a happy boy when we returned, so I know he was well cared for while we were gone!
