“Taylore did an incredible job keeping me up to date with how my dog was doing by sending multiple pictures every day. Her property has plenty of space for dogs to run around and play. 10/10 would recommend.”
“We could not have asked for a better first experience finding care for our dog . Rebekah and her husband were so personable and seemed genuinely excited and happy to host our Nelly. Rebekah sent updates throughout the stay along with pictures . We will definitely hire her again ! Thank you for taking such good care of our furry family member!”
“Hartley and Pretty Girl had a wonderful stay! Jessica and her family were very accommodating. They helped our anxious pup adapt to being away while letting our social pup play with the other dogs in the home. We will definitely be back!”
“Our pup had a great time, Tom kept in touch and was great about watching him closely for a some injuries my pup was dealing with. Communication was great. Would book with Tom again and again.”
“Jacky our Wheaton spend one night with Hannah, and was instantly comfortable with her when we dropped him off, which is unusual for him as he is hesitant with strangers. She sent numerous updates and photos which showed us he was having a good time. We were very happy with the whole experience and would recommend Hannah.”
“My dog, Daisy had THE BEST TIME! When we picked her up she was happy but tired out like a kid who went to summer camp and had soo much fun :-) Sofia was amazing with sending pictures and videos. Their facility is a nice set up. WE DEFINITELY will be back. It was SO nice to be away and not worry about Daisy! Thank you!!!!!!!!”
“Candace & Jeremy were absolutely wonderful! Out dog, mikko, is a little anxious and higher energy being a Aussie but he did great and seemed to loved his time with them. We will absolutely be repeat clients of theirs and recommend them 10/10! Thank you both!”
“Kristi was wonderful with Hazel. Hazel had fun playing puzzles and going through a tunnel, she was so good with her. Kristi treated her like part of the family. It was our first time using her and we definitely will go back again. Thank you Kristi”
“This was my first time using Rover and it was a great experience. Jaymie made drop-off and pick-up easy and smooth, and I really appreciated the regular updates and photos while I was away. It gave me peace of mind knowing my dog was being well cared for. I would definitely book with Jaymie again!”
“I had never left my fur baby for a week before and was a little worried about how she would do. I needn't have worried at all. Jennifer sent pictures of Kenzie having a wonderful time running and playing. I will for sure be booking with her again. Thank you Jennifer and family for making Kenzie fell comfortable and at home with you. ♥️”
“Our pup had a great long weekend stay with Christina! She sent lots of pictures and it is clear Archie was well loved while in her care. Would definitely recommend!”
About: I have raised several dogs from the time they were puppies. I have done obedience training with all of them. I truly enjoy the loyal companionship of a dog. I am currently on SSDI, so I am retired. I do have a karaoke DJ business, but that usually only takes me away one or two nights a month. I currently have a French bulldog who is fixed and he is very friendly with other dogs. I also have two cats, but I have the ability to separate them from the rest of the house.
“Karlee was excellent, Maverick came home exhausted from all the playtime he got! It was first time using Rover app, so was a little nervous going in, but she sent updates and pics. Will definately use her again!!”
About: Hi, I'm Leah! I provide dog sitting exclusively in my home on five peaceful acres in rural Minnesota. Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up on a farm and have spent my life caring for animals of all kinds. I've owned multiple dogs over the years, including large and small breeds, and understand that every dog has unique needs, routines, and personalities. As a registered nurse, I am dependable, attentive, and comfortable caring for dogs who require extra support. I can administer oral medications and injections, follow detailed care plans, and provide attentive care for senior dogs or pets with special medical needs. My property offers a quiet, low-stress environment with plenty of space to explore, relax, and enjoy the outdoors under supervision. I have a tripod Pyrenees named Lola and she is very sociable! Whether your dog loves activity and adventure or prefers a slower pace and extra cuddles, my goal is to provide a safe, caring home away from home while you're away. I look forward to meeting you and your pup! I'm home all day, every day! I work a couple of night shifts during the week but my own dog barely notices I'm gone because she's sleeping. During the day the longest I'm usually away is a couple of hours for errands or the gym. If your dog has specific supervision needs, feel free to reach out and we can discuss whether my schedule is a good fit. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my priority. I follow instructions carefully and make sure routines are done exactly the way you prefer, including feeding schedules, leash safety, and any medications or special care needs. I’m a nurse by background, so I’m very observant, calm in unexpected situations, and comfortable handling responsibility with attention to detail. I take trust seriously and understand I’m being welcomed into your pet’s space.

“Madelynn did an amazing job watching my two cats over night while on vacation for a week. When we returned home you could tell the cats were well taken care of and were getting plenty of attention throughout the week. She also takes great pictures! I love getting the updates and pictures while we were gone. She left the house spotless, which was greatly appreciated! I will definitely be hiring her in the future and without a doubt would recommend her to my friend and family! Thank you so much Madelynn!”
About: I’ve spent years caring for my own dogs and raising animals, which has taught me patience, responsibility, and an understanding of different personalities and needs. I treat every pet like family, making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. What sets me apart is the genuine bond I build with animals and my dedication to their happiness, whether that means playtime, walks, or simply giving them the attention they deserve. Caring for pets is already a part of my daily routine. Between feeding, walking, playtime, and keeping up with my own dogs, I’m used to giving animals structure and attention every single day. Whether it’s early morning walks or evening walks, pets are always the center of my schedule. In my home, I make sure pets have a safe, comfortable space where they feel welcomed as part of the family. I stick to regular feeding schedules, provide plenty of playtime and walks, and give lots of love and attention. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to follow their routines as closely as possible, whether mealtime, walks, or bedtime, so pets feel secure and stress-free. My goal is to always create consistency, comfort, and trust.
“Emma was amazing. We however dropped the ball this time with a few things and she was so understanding. The pups loved her. Her communication was awesome. Will definitely use her again if she can put up with us 🤦🏻♀️🤣”
“We are so glad to have met Jessica through Rover to care for our diabetic cat. Jessica is responsive, easy to communicate with, and sends pictures/updates of our cat(s). We 100% recommend Jessica!”
About: I have been walking dogs for 3 years. The dog I currently walk is a Golden Retriever with a lot of energy! I have also walked other large dogs as well as small dogs. I currently walk a dog every morning Monday through Friday, and 2 small dogs as needed. We enjoy going for walks and to the dog park if requested. We have gone on car rides to different parks for walks as well as walking in the neighborhood. I love the time I get to spend with the dogs. Dog walking is what I do. Every day Monday through Friday I walk a Golden Retriever. After that I am open to taking on more walking or drop in visits. When going to clients homes I am always careful to be sure to lock up the home after our walk. I check to be sure that there is adequate water. I am respectful of others private space and leave things as I find them. I give treats if requested. On hot days we can keep walks shorter if requested. I will also brush your dog if you request this.
About: I have extensive experience caring for cats of all ages and personalities, from confident social butterflies to shy or sensitive companions. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, enrichment, medication, and maintaining a calm, predictable environment that helps cats feel secure. I also take cleanliness seriously — I’m fully comfortable handling litter box maintenance and any necessary cleanup from accidents or hairballs. My goal is always to keep your cat’s space fresh, tidy, and stress‑free so they can relax while you’re away.
About: I have owned and taken care of numerous breeds of dogs. They range from all types of bully breeds, various mastiff breeds, terriers, and more. I am very comfortable with multiple types of dog personalities and have also trained several dogs. I am retired and able to spend quality time with your pet. Your pet will be in my home with me and my wife. I love to spend my time outside or relaxing in my large yard! I can offer numerous potty breaks and am flexible with various schedules. We live on a lake with 3 acres of land. Your pet will be one of our family members and treated well with lots of playtime and cuddling. I currently have one dog who is very friendly with other dogs. I have a large yard with alot of wooded areas and very low traffic streets around me. Dogs are allowed on the furniture and on beds as we love to cuddle. However we follow your wishes, meaning if you prefer no bed then they will have plenty of dogs beds on the floor to sleep on.

About: I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life. I love animals, and I love being outside, no matter the weather! I’ll happily walk your furry friend! To me, the well-being of animals is only second to the well-being of people. There is ALWAYS time to care for our furry companions, and even more time to love them. I live on a farm, so my dogs have LOTS of room to run and play because I believe exercise is crucial to a dog’s well-being. I use harnesses rather than collars while they’re on their leash to prevent any pain or discomfort on their neck or throat. :)
About: Growing up I have always had dogs, hamsters and bunnies. I am most likely taking care of something fluffy! I am gentle with pets and will try my best to provide the best care for them. I love exercise and would love to help out families that need extra help walking their pets. I also don't have my own pets down here while I am at college and love the company. I do not have a home for pets to stay because I am at college but I will provide the best care in my clients home. I love to clean and keep things tidy.
“I liked that Jillian came to pick up the key and meet Macie and Honey. She sent updates on each visit. Macie liked her. When Jillian made her last visit, she left the door key on the table in the kitchen. I highly recommend her.”

“Karlee has done an amazing job taking care of Thor! When I drop him off he gets excited to see her everytime and I know he's in good hands! Karlee is very good at giving updates and sending pictures during his daycare! I highly recommend Karlee's daycare service it is easily worth what you pay! Thanks Karlee!”
“Highly recommend Christina! She’s a great dog sitter. She responded fast and professionally. Most importantly my dog was very worn out when I picked him up! Highly impressed with her service.”
“What a wonderful couple. They “get” dogs. Our one has separation anxiety and the other is borderline. They seemed so chill here and happy. We even got a happy photo of them. We’ll definitely be back. This is so much better than them being cooped up in a kennel at a boarder. Thank you, see you next time.”
“Great all around experience for me and my puppy. I received many updates and photos throughout the day. The location is lovely with a beautiful yard as well as a great indoor doggy area for playing and naps. I would recommend Kristy. She is calm and has a wonderful way of communicating with the dogs.”
About: I grew up on a farm around, and caring for all types of animals! Horses, goats, chickens, ducks, dogs, cats, hamsters, chinchilla, even rescued a baby squirrel! I have a huge heart for animals and will do anything to meet the care they need! I have also saved/rescued stray cats/dogs & helped get them to loving homes! I am very flexible given the services needed! I am available 7 days a week for boarding in my home. I am happy to have your pets in my home! I do have 2 dogs if my own that I rescued (Border Collie/Aussie & Red Heeler/Lab) both VERY friendly & LOVE to meet new friends & play! I have a very special love and patience for rescues! I also have 8 chickens & 2 ducks that are NOT free range. So no worries to them or your pets! If your pet is not social no worries! I have a ton of experience keeping pets seperate with 0 crossing/contact for everyone’s safety. I have 3 levels of my home that can be 3 areas to spoil all the fur babies! I do not have a fenced in yard however, I am on 5 acres & do have 2 very long zip line style cables that connect across 3 large trees! Great for zoomies & roaming! I also have a very large outdoor dog kennel enclosed & shade provided. I also have a dog park not far from my house, and am willing to bring your dog there given the service is requested! I am not a certified trainer however, I have trained my own dogs, family & friends dogs, and have been to multiple classes to learn! I also helped a friend train their aggressive large breed dog with specialized muzzle & obedience training. I specialize mainly in Sit, stay, roll over, and all the fun tricks! I can even help with potty training given the service needed! I have developed some amazing friendships, family if you will, along the way! I love your fur baby as if they are my own! Lastly, I would love to tell you a short story of how big my love is for animals. My soul dog Bella was diagnosed with OSA in 2024. I did everything from treatments, trials, surgery (given if it was best for her), home grown & cooked meals, and every last dollar to my name spent to save her. I ensured she had everything from ramps, to special harnesses, and even a wagon as she was a tripod in her late time. I will do anything for animals as I believe they are gods love sent to us in pet form! They truly are a blessing. I am currently taking the summer off of work as I transition my career from working, to owning my own business. I am currently wide open availability! I love to spoil & love on all animals! All animals are care for with safety & structure. From crate (if needed), going outside routines, food schedules, play time, & more! As stated before I have 2 rescue dogs who are both very young! Izzy is 3 and Prim is 2. Both High energy, and I am able to get them both adjusted safely indoor and outdoor!
About: I have grown up with animals i know how to take care of old dogs because i had one. I also can take care of little babies i have a cat that i have had since birth I. Am available for anytime you need every day. I put pets first before anything except for family. I love these creatures. I hope it works out I can walk the dogs around our loop and i can keep them inside we do not have a fenced yard. I can bring them out to the bathroom also
About: Since I was 6 years old my family had dogs and cats as pets. All the dogs we had we got as puppies so I handled the potty training, taught tricks and the main obedience training like sit and stay. I've watched family and friends dogs which also included days/nights at a time like when they were out of town working. I have watched and been with tiny dogs to giant dogs. I'm a stay at home mom at the moment so I have plenty of time to care for your pet pretty much at anytime day or night. I have a fenced yard so easy to let in and out as needed, big area take out or let out to play. My house is pretty open with area for them to roam or find good spot to just relax. I have never crated any of my animals but if needed or wanted obviously I could do that. If you have a special diet for your dog I would follow that for you also. My kids and I also love to go on walks and would love your dog to join. I do have three very young kids so your dog must get along with children. My kids love animals, they were very sad after losing our last dog so they'd be very excited to play with others. I am home daily with my kids, I only leave when I need to go to the store or take kids to an activity. So they won't be left alone for long if at all while in my care. I have a fenced in yard for a safe place to run and play while outside. My house is decent size so plenty of area and all open to them so they feel at home. You can bring whatever you think your animal needs to be comfortable.

About: I’m an animal lover with 3 amazing dogs of my own. I’ve had dogs for 14 years and they’ve spent the whole time spoiled, and I’d love to do the same for yours! I have 10 acres of farmland and a large home with lots of space for your pet to roam and have fun and play! Your pet will be well cared for and loved, played with and treated as one of the family! I love all different breeds and sizes of dogs, so no matter what dog you have big or small they’ll be welcome with us! I’ve been around dogs of all sizes before, so I know how to cuddle the little ones and handle the big guys! I’m also an approved foster for a local rescue, so I’m used to having all kinds of furry friends coming in and out of my home. I have experience with shy animals and know how to help a scared pup settle in and feel safe. I hope you’ll trust me to care for your special furry friend! My husband and I work only a few days a week on opposite schedules, so we’re almost always available to be home playing and snuggling our furry friends! We love dogs, so it’s a priority in our days to spend time with them. I’m very comfortable caring for dogs on their level. I’ve worked with extremely under socialized animals, and also dogs that need to be kept separated from other animals, so I have the space to make sure every dog is comfortable during their stay.
About: I have years of experience caring for pets with all kinds of personalities, and I’m comfortable with everything from feeding routines and enrichment to medication and multi‑pet homes. I’m calm, detail‑focused, and great at following instructions so your pet’s routine stays consistent. I also keep things clean and comfortable — including litter box care and any necessary accident cleanup — so your pets always have a fresh, stress‑free space. I currently work part-time, so my availability is focused on Wednesdays and Thursdays. This lets me give each pet my full attention and consistent, reliable care. Your pet's safety and comfort always come first. I follow you routines closely, keep their space clean, and provide calm, attentive care. You can count on clear updates and a respectful, trustworthy presence in your home.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 16. In high school, I worked at a dog daycare for 3 years where I was a manager and handled up to 30 dogs on a daily basis. These dogs varied in breed and behavioral characteristics, and it was my responsibility to ensure they were cared for and safe. I followed strict procedures regarding meals, safety, and potty breaks. I’ve also been a go to dog-sitter for friends and family for the past 3 years, staying in their homes taking care of their pets and following the provided instructions they left for me. My tasks as a dog sitter have included feeding at designated times, playing with them, and letting them out regularly. I’m currently between jobs and have a seasonal coaching job (ends in May) so my schedule is very open except from 3-5:15 M-F due to my coaching responsibilities. My flexible schedule allows me to take care of your pups and give them the time they deserve. When taking care of your pups or kitties (for overnights or drop ins), I love being given specific care instructions to ensure that there isn’t a change in their routine. Furthermore, if house sitting, I want to know and abide by your homes rules to be respectful to your space.
About: I have raised several dogs from the time they were puppies. I have done obedience training with all of them. I truly enjoy the loyal companionship of a dog. I am currently on SSDI, so I am retired. I do have a karaoke DJ business, but that usually only takes me away one or two nights a month. I currently have a French bulldog who is fixed and he is very friendly with other dogs. I also have two cats, but I have the ability to separate them from the rest of the house.
About: I have been surrounded by dogs almost my entire life. I love the unconditional love they give. I enjoy spending time outside but also can relax inside. Whatever suits your dog best. I’ve dealt with crazy hyper dogs (like my own) and also the dogs that rather relax alone. Each holds a special place in my heart. I currently work full time. I don’t work Mondays so I would be perfect for a long weekend. I work longer days so I am open to being available for any dog but I leave home early in the morning and I return in the evening. Weekends allow for the most availability for me (with the addition of Mondays) I love to be outside so keeping an eye on any dog while letting them outside will not be an issue. I can leash them if preferred. The dog will be in the comfort on their own house!!
About: I lived with 2 cats for a majority of my life. I have experience watching animals for family and friends, looking to meet new best friends. I am currently working full time and going to school part time to earn my master’s degree. Looking for a fun side job to keep life interesting. I am open to having the animals out in the open or crated when not around. Would love to have a yard to play with animals, but not opposed to going to local parks.

I do provide services in other people's homes if they would like, I will take dogs on car rides if nice out, will treat the dog like it is my own dog.
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life! I grew up on a large animal farm where we had bison for 20 years. I went to college at msu Mankato for animal science. In 2016 I started working at a boarding kennel and ever since I have found my life passion of working with dogs and cats. I have 4 dogs of my own on a hobby farm. I have two springer spaniels, my rescue dog that is a chow pit bull, and recently got a golden retriever puppy. I have also been grooming dogs professionally since 2018. I know how to do anal glands, haircuts, nail trimming and buffing, ear cleaning, meds, baths, basically the whole works! I am currently available pretty much everyday for drop ins, walks, feeding, meds, and to give love to your fur babies! Even last minute I’m available I offer drop in at your house, I can do over nights if needed, I also can pets to appointments if needed. I do have experience with aggressive dogs as well. I have a fully enclosed 7 foot tall fenced in yard as well
About: I am coparenting a 90 lb golden retriever and miss him so much when he’s away! He is not fond of new places, so I understand the importance of keeping your pets safe in your home while you are away. I have experience house and dog sitting for my sister and friends and I love walking and snuggling. I would be honored to take care of your little furry children! I work full time in a corporate setting in downtown Minneapolis, but I only go to the office twice a week. I have a fairly flexible schedule and would be available to work partial days from home as well. My typical work hours are 8:30am-5pm. I raised my now 6 year old golden retriever and cat, and am comfortable with all things puppy, kitten, teen, and adult related. I love going for walks and taking dogs to the park if they like to be social. I treat my own pets as my children and would love to dote on your babies in the same way!
About: I have five years of experience caring for dogs, cats, and small animals for friends, family, and neighbors. I also grew up around animals, so pet care has always been a natural part of my life. I love making sure each pet feels safe, happy, and loved. Pet care fits easily into my day because I’m home and available throughout the day. I enjoy giving pets the time, attention, and care they need to feel happy and comfortable. I make pets feel safe and loved by following their routine, giving them playtime, attention, and keeping their space clean. Whether in my home or theirs, I make sure they’re happy and comfortable.
About: I love working with dogs. I have sat for a wide range of dogs sizing from a brussels griffen (14-15 lbs) to southern bloodhounds and black labs. Have given basic medication (a probiotic for the southern bloodhound), fed and walked dogs. I have also walked both together, so I am not against having 2 dogs at once. I have also used a couple different forms of restraints, such as gentle leaders, normal neck collars and shock collars while on walks to keep dogs under control as per owners instructions. One of the dogs I sit on a regular basis is an aging almost 10 year old southern bloodhound. I also have taken care of a shiba inu at weeks at a time, giving her longer 3-4 mile walks. My availability tends to lie in afternoons, evenings and some weekend availability as I have a 40 hour a week job. Generally what dog owners will like about my care is when I am given specific instruction, I will follow their instruction word for word, to keep their dog happy and healthy.
About: I’ve always loved being around animals and have years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all kinds. I make sure to follow each pet’s routine so they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. When caring for your pet, I follow your instructions closely and make sure they receive the attention, exercise, and affection they’re used to. I’m happy to provide dependable care and regular updates so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands. I work full-time during weekdays, but I’m available for pet care before work, after work, evenings, and weekends. If you prefer someone with your pets at all times, my wife works remotely and can step-in during work hours for that additional companionship and supervision. I work remotely, so I’m home most of the day and have the flexibility to give your pet attention, care, and playtime throughout my workday. I’m happy to care for your pet in the comfort of their own home, where they feel safe and secure. I follow your instructions closely and make sure your pet gets all the attention, care, and love they’re used to.
“Crystal was outstanding! My puppy took to her right away. She got a full walk in and was ready for a nap afterwards. I will 100percent be having Crystal do more walks in the future!”
About: I have a passionate and caring personality especially for animals.

“We could not have asked for a better first experience finding care for our dog . Rebekah and her husband were so personable and seemed genuinely excited and happy to host our Nelly.

“Jacky our Wheaton spend one night with Hannah, and was instantly comfortable with her when we dropped him off, which is unusual for him as he is hesitant with strangers.

“My dog, Daisy had THE BEST TIME! When we picked her up she was happy but tired out like a kid who went to summer camp and had soo much fun :-) Sofia was amazing with sending pictures and videos. Their facility is a nice set up. WE DEFINITELY will be back. It was SO nice to be away and not worry about Daisy! Thank you!!!!!!!!”

“This was my first time using Rover and it was a great experience. Jaymie made drop-off and pick-up easy and smooth, and I really appreciated the regular updates and photos while I was away. It gave me peace of mind knowing my dog was being well cared for. I would definitely book with Jaymie again!”
“I had never left my fur baby for a week before and was a little worried about how she would do. I needn't have worried at all. Jennifer sent pictures of Kenzie having a wonderful time running and playing. I will for sure be booking with her again. Thank you Jennifer and family for making Kenzie fell comfortable and at home with you. ♥️”
“Our pup had a great long weekend stay with Christina! She sent lots of pictures and it is clear Archie was well loved while in her care. Would definitely recommend!”
About: I have raised several dogs from the time they were puppies. I have done obedience training with all of them. I truly enjoy the loyal companionship of a dog. I am currently on SSDI, so I am retired. I do have a karaoke DJ business, but that usually only takes me away one or two nights a month. I currently have a French bulldog who is fixed and he is very friendly with other dogs. I also have two cats, but I have the ability to separate them from the rest of the house.
“Karlee was excellent, Maverick came home exhausted from all the playtime he got! It was first time using Rover app, so was a little nervous going in, but she sent updates and pics. Will definately use her again!!”
About: Hi, I'm Leah! I provide dog sitting exclusively in my home on five peaceful acres in rural Minnesota. Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up on a farm and have spent my life caring for animals of all kinds. I've owned multiple dogs over the years, including large and small breeds, and understand that every dog has unique needs, routines, and personalities. As a registered nurse, I am dependable, attentive, and comfortable caring for dogs who require extra support. I can administer oral medications and injections, follow detailed care plans, and provide attentive care for senior dogs or pets with special medical needs. My property offers a quiet, low-stress environment with plenty of space to explore, relax, and enjoy the outdoors under supervision. I have a tripod Pyrenees named Lola and she is very sociable! Whether your dog loves activity and adventure or prefers a slower pace and extra cuddles, my goal is to provide a safe, caring home away from home while you're away. I look forward to meeting you and your pup! I'm home all day, every day! I work a couple of night shifts during the week but my own dog barely notices I'm gone because she's sleeping. During the day the longest I'm usually away is a couple of hours for errands or the gym. If your dog has specific supervision needs, feel free to reach out and we can discuss whether my schedule is a good fit. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my priority. I follow instructions carefully and make sure routines are done exactly the way you prefer, including feeding schedules, leash safety, and any medications or special care needs. I’m a nurse by background, so I’m very observant, calm in unexpected situations, and comfortable handling responsibility with attention to detail. I take trust seriously and understand I’m being welcomed into your pet’s space.
“Andrea was great! She took many photos and sent them over which was great, we love seeing our little Douglas getting the love he deserves when we are gone! Would recommend Andrea greatly!”
“Christina and Jeremy were awesome! Super responsive and made us feel very comfortable leaving our puppy with them. They updated us with photos so we knew that our guy was doing well. Couldn’t be happier with them and the service they provided. We will definitely be a repeat customer.”
