“Cooper enjoyed his stay at Cynthia’s place. Couldn’t have asked for a better place for our dog. Cynthia was flexible and communicated with us about Cooper during his stay. We have found a home away from home for Cooper and will book again!”
“Absolutely could not be happier or more grateful for Margarita and her family. The whole process was super easy and after the meet and greet I left feeling 100% confident that bubba would be in great hands. Then traveling back home from Sioux Falls, we get hammered by blizzard conditions. The last 20 miles before finally giving up, I could barely see the lines on the road, let alone any cars in front of me. So we pulled off and checked in to a hotel. Thankfully Margarita was SUPER understanding and reassuring. I was in a bit of a panic worrying about this and that, and the fact that Loki didn't have to be one of those worries was a huge relief. When we finally made it back the next day I could tell he wasn't super thrilled about leaving, which is always what you want to see. (And with that massive yard, I can't blame him!) Will definitely be "boarding" with her and her family again in the future! Super communicative with updates and photos to put our minds at ease.”
“They were flexible about drop off and pick up which was great since we were running a bit late for our drop off time. They sent pictures and a short video so we could see how our dogs were interacting with the others and gave us a good description of how their stay went. We would definitely bring our dogs back for another stay!”
“Katrina and Drew were amazing with our Poppy. It's the first time we have picked her up and she was hesitant to jump in the car to go home. We know she was well-loved and in good hands with them :)”
“Chelsie and her family were not only amazing and patient with Tilly, welcoming her into their home while we were away, but she was incredibly flexible with our ever changing travel schedule. Due to weather that prevented us from getting home when we originally anticipated, Chelsie was extremely understanding and accommodating to help extend Tilly’s stay with her family. This was so helpful by taking one thing off of our already stressful plates. Thank you for everything, Chelsie!”
“Sean was great! Sent us a couple of videos of our dog playing and running around in his big fenced in yard! We could tell he genuinely cares for our pet as if it were his own. Will definitely book with Sean again!”
“Marill was wonderful! She took our Draco at the last minute. He felt so at home with her and in her care. We were abled to go on vacation with no worries. She sent pictures/videos and was very open about what was happening at all times. She really took an interest in what was comfortable for Draco and how she could make his stay as pleasant as possible! We even ended up extended our stay a few hours and she was very flexible. This was our first time using Rover and it was a wonderful experience! We will absolutely use Marill again in the future!!”
“Cheyene did a great job with our small dog. He seemed very happy and the pictures looked like he was enjoying his stay. She also alerted me to a spot on his tummy which I appreciated. I would definitely recommend.”
“As always, Ollie loves going to hang out with Carrie and Mark! They are always so willing to take him for long periods of time and are great communicators. They take such great care of the dogs who come to visit, including Ollie ❤️”
“Stanley did great with Becky M and so happy I used her to take care of him. He came home relaxed and happy. I will use her again and will recommend her to others. Thank you Becky and may God Bless you always, Katy McClure.”
“Shelby and her family took amazing care of our girl Rosie while we were away! We received lots of pictures of Rosie out on walks, playing with the other dogs, and chilling out on her bed. I wouldn’t hesitate to have Shelby watch Rosie again!”
“The sitter I had lined up cancelled the day of. With short notice Cindy was able to do a meet and greet and take my little guy for the weekend! My puppy came home tired from all the playing and fun he had.”
“Allison and her family were amazing!!! Updates and pics were sent daily during the stay. When I picked my dog up she had the biggest smile on her face. Will definitely be rebooking!”
“Kami was amazing and the location is perfect! We had never boarded our 3 dogs and was a little nervous about the whole thing but after seeing the location and meeting Kami and her crew I was quickly put to ease. Lots of pics and communication over the 4 days and we couldn't have been happier with the experience. Highly recommend!!”
“I typically book with a daycare center but due to the amount of time we would be gone, we feared he would suffer from anxiety and loneliness. So we decided to book with a home daycare to ensure he received more personal care. They did an awesome job with Jake. Seemingly, he was treated like their own with lots of cuddle time. They provided daily updates and included cute photos. They were flexible with drop off and pick up times. I would definitely use them again.”
“Took great care of my dog, Scout!! Took the time to find out about her needs, routines and behavior. I knew right away she would be in wonderful hands. Definitely would recommend!!”
“Hank loved his time here. I didn’t have a worry about him because I knew when I pulled up to drop him off that Shelley’s home was going to be a great fit. 10/10 recommend to anyone!”
“Allison and Michael took great care of our girl Josie! We got pictures and updates and felt so comfortable leaving our “baby” in their care. Josie can’t wait until her next visit to see all her new friends!”

“I love her she's so attentive and even things I've completely forgotten during the anxiety of the trip she's done during our time away and Im happy she brings her daughter to play with my little minions. Makes me happy to know they have the attention they deserve. I couldn't be more thankful for the care and treatment to all my animals. I was terrified of leaving them but her updates give me calm. Look no further PICK HER. 😭💕”
“So my partner and I travel pretty often and we were looking to give Rover a try. After a lot of research, and looking at rates, we found Katie! She agreed to meet cat before doing her drop in visits, which was great. Even though my cat is not the friendliest, Katie was able to make him come out of his hiding place. I am very glad I found a great person to check on my cat!”
“Jessica was awesome and took great care of my two dogs despite a difficult start to their time together. My dogs decided to be somewhat less than cooperative. Jessica handled the situation incredibly well and allowed me to have a memorable visit with my family.”
“Lynn took care of Leo well and I felt confident that he was in good hands when I know how much he misses me. She communicated well with photos and texts to assure me he was doing okay. Lynn also fed our "outside critters" who probably didn't even realize (or care) that we were gone.”

“Robyn does an excellent job! We have 3 cats with an involved routine and had very lengthy and specific instructions. Robyn is intelligent, communicates well, responds quickly, and follows detailed instructions well. She also has a calming presence, vibe, and speaking voice, which is incredibly helpful for cats. She knows how to respect cat’s autonomy. I was impressed that she approached them in a way that lets them decide if they want to receive attention. She provides excellent notes and photos with each visit and as pet parents, we are relieved to have someone like her to care for them while we are away.”
“Felt very comfortable leaving my cats in Kyla’s care! She was communicative, sent lots of photos and kept me updated throughout the stay. I will be looking to her for future services!”
About: I taught my cat how to sit! He probably forgot by now but I still feel accomplished haha! I’m comfortable doing nail clippings with cats who aren’t overly aggressive, as mine get clipped regularly at home.
About: Ever since I was a kid I was bring home stray cats to nursery back to health. I am still doing it back in September I found my current cat Jup outside in with a really young kitten.

“Cynthia provides a great area for our dogs to play outside and with other pups. Everytime we pick them up, they are super sleepy from having a high energy day. We definitely recommend her daycare and boarding services for your dogs!”
“Margarita has been a wonderful, flexible, accommodating, understanding, champion for me and Spike. He is having a good time there. When I get him he is always a happy puppy and I can tell he is well taken care of. He comes home and he likes to take naps afterward, poor puppy having so much fun with her dogs and her cute youn son. Nice open space for Spike to walk on leash and not worry about his safety. Definitely booking again (already have the reservations). It’s nice to know that my 11week puppy has a loving and caring place that takes care of him while I am at work.”
“Marill was very accommodating with a couple of my requests ( paw holding and Gabbys food need). I received a timely update. Gabby looked happy when i picked her up - easily going back to Marill to say good bye to her. Very reassuring experience. Even with several dogs running around in fenced area Gabby came home clean and fluffy. Very nice experience - marill has this down!”

About: My husband and I are former dog foster parents and love meeting/spending time with new dogs! We have two resident (foster fail!) dogs: Ace, a shy pitbull who LOVES other dogs and Tesha, a rambunctious tripod who LOVES people. We especially love older dogs in our house but are open to dogs 1 year and up. We have a fully fenced in backyard and a tie out available for outside play time. We have space to keep dogs separated if you have a dog that is shy or needs very slow introductions (we have a three level home). Our resident pups are allowed on our bed if they choose, but we have plenty of dog beds around too, and we do not allow them on our couch. We will do our very best to accommodate your pups needs and keep you updated on how your four legged family member is doing while you are away! I currently work from home and am able to take breaks to allow potty and attention breaks. My husband is also home most of the time and will be available when I am not. We like to do slow introductions to other dogs to ensure the comfort of our resident dogs and the visiting pups. We have the space to crate or allow roaming on separate levels if needed.

“Buddy loved his day with Leanna and her family. He was in good spirits when I came to collect him, and loved the extra attention throughout the day. Leanna is a great communicator, and I could tell Buddy felt super comfortable with her and her home. Thanks so much again for being so kind!”
“Carrie and Mark are amazing with our little guy Ollie! He plays with the kitty Bennie, and gets lots of walks and play time in! He loves it so much there he runs right to the door without a second glance at me!”

After losing my beloved Rosie after 15 1/2 years, I am ready for an occasional dog fix :) I am a retired teacher. When I am not traveling, I will have time to help with your dog-sitting needs. I look forward to meeting your dog. I have a fenced yard, and a home that we live primarily on one level. My home is pet-friendly and on a pretty quiet street.
“I am new to the area, and Chelsie was very close by. She responded promptly and communicated clearly. I brought Riley over, and Chelsie kindly met me at the car. I was having some difficulty with the long lead, and Riley immediately went up to her as if they had known each other for a long time. When Riley heard the dogs barking inside the house, she led Chelsie to the door, which was quite charming. I realized I forgot to mention something to Chelsie, but she responded right away. On my way back to pick up Riley, I got caught in traffic, so Chelsie graciously brought Riley out to me, and Riley happily got into the car without any issues. After we returned home, I noticed that Riley's card was filled out, and there was a detailed note, along with photos of Riley's day, showing that she had gone for a walk and played with her dogs. Overall, I would rate the experience as excellent, and Riley will definitely be visiting again.”

“Ashi did an amazing job at watching my two dogs. She kept me updated throughout the day with photos and video. They loved playing with her super sweet dog Simba and completely wiped each other out. Will definitely be back again.”
“First time at doggy daycare for our 7 yr old Chi mix - both he and our puppy were well cared for and arrived home this evening tired snd happy. Knowing they were safe made our time away worry free! Thank you Stacy for a great experience.”
About: I have loved dogs since I was a kid. Even though my parents wouldnt let us get one, I have had them in my adult years. Most recently a cavapoo. I'm the type to get down on their level and be their best friend through playing or snuggling. I work from home full time and currently live by myself. I have no pets at the moment so let me watch yours! If I have to drive my kids (dont live with me) anywhere, I could either crate your dog or bring them with on a car ride. My kids love dogs just as much as I do. I dont have any pets with me, but I've had one dog that was crate trained and another that had the run of the house when the family was gone. I'll make whatever works for your dog work for me.

I’m respectful of your space, communicative, and committed to making sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved.

“Kaitlyn did an amazing job with Kylo. She kept us updated and took so many great pictures of him while we were gone. It kept our mind at ease and was one less thing we needed to worry about while on vacation. Would highly recommend her for all your dog walking and dog sitting needs :)”
About: Hi I'm Connie! I've been rescuing and caring for dogs for over 25 years, but have been an animal lover my whole life. I spend the majority of my time working with dogs, I understand them very well and love being able to share my passion to help others. I love spending time with dogs, and getting to know them, and I am well educated and rounded when it comes to their needs and wants. I have lived in Faribault MN practically my whole life and know the town, it's people, and the surrounding area very well. I have worked with the local rescues for the past 14 years and dedicate my life to giving every dog the best chance at finding their loving forever home.
About: I have 5 amazing dogs of my own, 1 pitbull, 2 American Eskimo mini and 2 Pomeranians. I had 2 liter of puppies from my dogs (1st liter was 10 pups, 2nd liter was 5 pups) and was able to raise them well for their furever home. I run a lot, so if your dog needs to exercise, you can count me in. Or simply needs a rest day, or any kind of special needs, I’m your girl. I work full time and have my own babies to care for, but I’m a super dog mom so I’m pretty flexible and prepared for anything. With my own experiences of owning 5 dogs, and raising 15 puppies, I feel like that should speak for itself. I do have a fenced in yard, I love dogs and I want them to be happy while they're with me or their own homes.
About: I have grown up my whole life around animals. When I was younger, I had smaller animals like hamsters and rats. In high school, my dad did get an English bulldog and he was my best friend! When we first brought him home, I took him to training and I loved every second of it! I would watch him almost every weekend for my parents. My sister also had a dog, her and I worked opposite schedules so I would take care of him during the day. I also took him through training as a puppy. So if you have a puppy and want them to learn a thing or two I can help! I currently have 3 dogs and 2 cats with my boyfriend. So I really understand how much your fur baby’s mean to you as I have some at home! I am working part time and looking for something to do with my other time! I’m available all day Wednesdays, Fridays after 2pm and just about every weekend! Something that I live by is treating others animals like your own! I am also very big on respect. Letting me into your home to take care of your fur baby’s means a lot to me. I love to just hang out with furry friends or go play outside, which ever you need from me I will do! I really would like to make sure you and your animals can trust me! Whether you have cameras in your home or need a check in hourly, I’m willing to do whatever you need to trust me in your home. Having that trust bond can really make or break a sitter! Besides trust I also value on making sure your animal is safe.
“Sarah was great and I will definitely use her to walk the pups again. She is a great communicator and took pics and made sure to let me know she picked them up and that they were home after their walk.”
About: I've always loved dogs. I've spent five years working at a dog shelter as office manager, intake person which includes giving oral and injection medications, adoption coordinator, feeding and watering, cleaning, and socializing. I'm available during the week before 9am and after 1pm. Weekends are open. I work at the humane society but don't get to interact with the furry friends. I miss them! Also, I enjoy nature walks and stop as often as the dogs do to look at things. :) My schedule is flexible. When I am with dogs, it is sometimes hard to draw my attention away from them because they are so very loving and giving. I like to give that back to them.
“Jessica did a great job with our dogs! She took the time to get to know their commands and schedules before agreeing to walk them. Very happy with her service! Will definitely use her again 🐶”
“Robyn is beyond great with my dog! We started with a meet and greet walk that went very well but after my dog was shy without me there. Robyn was very good at helping Trusty warm up to her! She is always open to suggestions when it comes to me and my dog's needs. Now Trusty absolutely adores her! She's always very punctual, takes good pictures,and leaves good notes on her walks. When she isn't able to walk my dog, she has notified me far earlier than what I expected. I leave for work at 5:00 in the morning and I've had time to readjust before I leave. Hopefully recommended!”

About: I have had a love for dogs since I can remember. Growing up on a farm my first priority before school was to make sure all the animals were fed, watered and cared for. Your fur baby will be my first priority when I wake up and for their entire visit with me. I like to take dogs for a long walk through the park or to the dog park when they come visit. I always ensure plenty of exercise and a safe play environment. I always have plenty of time for evening walks, playtime and mental enrichment activities.

I intend to prioritize pet care in hopes of building a good business base for the near future. Pets in my care get all the love and attention. Vet name and number, emergency contact, medications list needed... I have out door tie outs, a zip line tie out, out door kennel, 2 indoor kennels, I'll let your pet sleep in my bed if it's sad. I want the pets to always be as comfortable and stress free as possible, so whatever that looks like for them is what I'll provide.

“Cooper enjoyed his stay at Cynthia’s place. Couldn’t have asked for a better place for our dog. Cynthia was flexible and communicated with us about Cooper during his stay. We have found a home away from home for Cooper and will book again!”
“Absolutely could not be happier or more grateful for Margarita and her family. The whole process was super easy and after the meet and greet I left feeling 100% confident that bubba would be in great hands. Then traveling back home from Sioux Falls, we get hammered by blizzard conditions. The last 20 miles before finally giving up, I could barely see the lines on the road, let alone any cars in front of me. So we pulled off and checked in to a hotel. Thankfully Margarita was SUPER understanding and reassuring. I was in a bit of a panic worrying about this and that, and the fact that Loki didn't have to be one of those worries was a huge relief. When we finally made it back the next day I could tell he wasn't super thrilled about leaving, which is always what you want to see. (And with that massive yard, I can't blame him!) Will definitely be "boarding" with her and her family again in the future! Super communicative with updates and photos to put our minds at ease.”
“They were flexible about drop off and pick up which was great since we were running a bit late for our drop off time. They sent pictures and a short video so we could see how our dogs were interacting with the others and gave us a good description of how their stay went. We would definitely bring our dogs back for another stay!”
“Katrina and Drew were amazing with our Poppy. It's the first time we have picked her up and she was hesitant to jump in the car to go home. We know she was well-loved and in good hands with them :)”
“Chelsie and her family were not only amazing and patient with Tilly, welcoming her into their home while we were away, but she was incredibly flexible with our ever changing travel schedule. Due to weather that prevented us from getting home when we originally anticipated, Chelsie was extremely understanding and accommodating to help extend Tilly’s stay with her family. This was so helpful by taking one thing off of our already stressful plates. Thank you for everything, Chelsie!”
“Sean was great! Sent us a couple of videos of our dog playing and running around in his big fenced in yard! We could tell he genuinely cares for our pet as if it were his own. Will definitely book with Sean again!”
“Marill was wonderful! She took our Draco at the last minute. He felt so at home with her and in her care. We were abled to go on vacation with no worries. She sent pictures/videos and was very open about what was happening at all times. She really took an interest in what was comfortable for Draco and how she could make his stay as pleasant as possible! We even ended up extended our stay a few hours and she was very flexible. This was our first time using Rover and it was a wonderful experience! We will absolutely use Marill again in the future!!”
“Cheyene did a great job with our small dog. He seemed very happy and the pictures looked like he was enjoying his stay. She also alerted me to a spot on his tummy which I appreciated. I would definitely recommend.”
“As always, Ollie loves going to hang out with Carrie and Mark! They are always so willing to take him for long periods of time and are great communicators. They take such great care of the dogs who come to visit, including Ollie ❤️”
“Shelby and her family took amazing care of our girl Rosie while we were away! We received lots of pictures of Rosie out on walks, playing with the other dogs, and chilling out on her bed. I wouldn’t hesitate to have Shelby watch Rosie again!”
“The sitter I had lined up cancelled the day of. With short notice Cindy was able to do a meet and greet and take my little guy for the weekend! My puppy came home tired from all the playing and fun he had.”
“Allison and her family were amazing!!! Updates and pics were sent daily during the stay. When I picked my dog up she had the biggest smile on her face. Will definitely be rebooking!”
“Kami was amazing and the location is perfect! We had never boarded our 3 dogs and was a little nervous about the whole thing but after seeing the location and meeting Kami and her crew I was quickly put to ease. Lots of pics and communication over the 4 days and we couldn't have been happier with the experience. Highly recommend!!”
“I typically book with a daycare center but due to the amount of time we would be gone, we feared he would suffer from anxiety and loneliness. So we decided to book with a home daycare to ensure he received more personal care. They did an awesome job with Jake. Seemingly, he was treated like their own with lots of cuddle time. They provided daily updates and included cute photos. They were flexible with drop off and pick up times. I would definitely use them again.”
“Took great care of my dog, Scout!! Took the time to find out about her needs, routines and behavior. I knew right away she would be in wonderful hands. Definitely would recommend!!”
“Allison and Michael took great care of our girl Josie! We got pictures and updates and felt so comfortable leaving our “baby” in their care. Josie can’t wait until her next visit to see all her new friends!”
“Our Ruthie came back happy and Marine was great about daily picture updates! Also very accommodating with drop-off and pick-up times. Thank you for taking care of our girl!”
“Barb was AWESOME. She made Scottie feel at home. Scottie is very shy and timid. However, after meeting Barb and other furry friends, he was content and quite happy. Scottie was very happy when I picked him up. I will definitely use Barbs pet service again. Thank you, Barb. ?”
