“Used Kathryn for a two week trip on a 6 year old doggie. The dog had plenty of room to run, was well taken care of. Would 100% use her again for my future trips !”
“Thanks for taking care of Stella and Walter like they were your own. I feel so comfortable leaving them with you guys. They love playing in your back yard and chasing squirrels. You are our go to for taking care of our babies!!”
“Brenda and Alvin provide awesome dog care, especially with new pets. They do everything they can to make the dog feel comfortable and well cared for. Our dog initially was a little anxious and nervous. Brenda and Alvin gave her space and time to adjust but also coaxed her out of her crate and gave her attention, play time and walks. They also kept me informed twice a day with reports and pictures to let me know how Wednesday was doing. I can’t thank them enough or praise them enough for their wonderful care of our dear little girl!”
“Won’t take Juno anywhere else. Patricia and Patrick are simply the best! They take care of her as if she is their own and she’s always so excited anytime we drop her off.”
“Tammy was amazing. I think it says a lot about our the sitter when you pup wants to stay and is hesitant to go home. Tammy will be at the top of our list any time we need someone to watch our pup when we go out of town.”
“Awesome experience with Brit and Matt. Thank you so much for letting Monroe take care of you for a weekend. I can tell she had a great time because she is exhausted.”
“The whole experience was great! Travis and Sophia are great communicators and it was fun to be able to check the cameras and see what she was doing in real time. Will gladly book with them again if/when needed.”
“Amy is fabulous to work with and has a pulse on her mix of dogs she watches. She gets back to you promptly and will be as flexible as possible. I have a busy 16 month old and he had the most wonderful time with her. I am so relieved I found an outstanding dogsitter”
“David is a very professional dog sitter. We are repeat clients and have used his services multiple times in the past. Teddy always has a fun time at his house. He is able to interact with his doggy friends in a supervised setting. David provides updates and pictures. David is very accommodating. Our flight was delayed and our pick up time went beyond 1 hour from our set time. He was nice and understanding about this issue. We will use his services again in the future. Do not hesitate to use David for your dog sitting and boarding needs.”
“Dave is the best! Our Sam just loved him. He was extremely well cared for and honestly the peace of mind knowing your pup is in good hands just can’t be beat. It’s hard to leave your dog when you need to be out of town and I can assure anyone reading this review that your dog will be very well loved if Dave is taking care of them.”
“Jordon and Melissa took great care of our mini golden doodle puppy for a long weekend sending lots of pictures of her having so much fun with the whole family! They were also flexible with our pick up and drop off which we really appreciated.”
“Sadie, my sometimes excitable dog, had a great two week vacation with Sophan and her husband. She enjoyed racing around a large yard, snuggling next to them on the couch. Sophan cared for her as if she was her own dog. When I picked her up, she was very clearly happy with them and their grandchildren who were visiting. When I need a sitter again, Sadie will return to Sophan.”
“This was my first ever experience leaving my dog with someone I wasnt familiar with. Michelle was perfect. I never had a second of worry and it was fantastic seeing so many photos of my dog being so happy and having a great time. 100% will be back when we have another trip. The rating is only 5 stars but shes a 10 star person 100%”
“Maureen was absolutely fantastic! She sent us pictures every day and reassured us our dog was having a great time. Would absolutely recommend her as a sitter any time”
“Maria is simply the best! She took care of our two big boys while we were out of the country for 2 weeks. She sent updates and photos, and reassured us along the way that they were happy and content. She is selective in who she watches, making sure to do a meet and greet and evaluate how each one interacts with others. We had no worries when she had other dogs staying there as well. Our guys were happy to see us when we picked them up, but they also looked content and were snuggly with Maria. You could tell that they had developed a good relationship with her. Maria will be the first one we ask if we need dog sitting in the future.”
“This was my first experience with River, and I couldn’t have been happier with this provider. Princesa provided a loving, caring experience for our Molly. I could tell our dog loved her visit! Thank you!!!”

“This was my first time using rover and I was nervous. My one cat was recently diagnosed with diabetes and I worried how we would be able to travel with him needing insulin. But Kim made it really easy, she sent updates and pics and was reliable and my cats loved her. Even my cat who is real skittish of strangers loved her by day 2! I will definitely have Kim care for my cats for future travel needs! Thank you Kim!”
“Kayti stops in to see our two cats whenever we are away for more than a day and always does an amazing job. Box is always clean, she sends photos and plays with them. Highly recommend.”
“Gloriahna was poised and professional yet relaxed and so very caring. She was respectful and observant to my preferences and routines with my cat and home. She is reliable and gave me updates on my fur baby during her stay. I don’t feel comfortable having many people in my home but she is sweet, down to earth, trustworthy and perfect for this line of work. I have already booked her again for a two week job!”
“Hillary did a great job with our cat who needed antibiotics twice daily. We appreciated the pictures and updates she gave us each visit. We would happily book with her again and recommend her to our friends! Thanks so much, Hillary!”
“Cassandra is so amazing to work with!! She was very patient with my anxious pup. He warmed up to her more than I thought he would because of her patience and care! Will definitely book Cassandra again. Thank you!!!”
About: My name is Corrie and I love animals, I have 2 cats, 2 dogs and 2 kids. They mean so much to me. I have a passion for caring for animals of all kinds. I love going for walks with my dogs. I have a big yard that's 2.5 acres and we roam around the whole thing. Some of it's long grass so I will check for ticks. I cut or file my own dogs nails as well and can offer that if needed depending how well the dog or cat does. I work full time but work from home some days of the week, Wednesdays and Fridays. We are available in evenings and weekends. Especially in the winter. We have a large yard. Most of the time we let the dogs out on a 50 foot leash for quick potty breaks. Rocky is allowed to roam a little. Otherwise we walk the dogs around the yard or neighborhood. Have a large crate when needed.
About: Hi! I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life and truly love caring for animals of all personalities and needs. I currently have two hound mixes and live a very active, pet-focused lifestyle. I have hands-on experience with: • Dogs with anxiety and behavioral needs (including training support) • Senior and special-needs dogs, including hip dysplasia • Administering medications multiple times a day I understand that every pet is different, and I’m very patient, attentive, and focused on making them feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I have a fully fenced yard and two friendly dogs, and I can also accommodate crating if needed (I have large crates available). Availability: I work full-time during the day, but I’m typically available after 6 PM on workdays. I also have rotating weekdays and weekends off, which allows for more flexible care—just message me and I’m happy to coordinate! I treat every pet like they’re my own and will keep you updated with photos and messages so you always have peace of mind. I currently work full time day shift. I will generally be available after 6PM but I have random weekdays and wekends off to care for your pets! I have a fenced in yard, and two dog friendly dogs. I have experience with high anxiety and handicap dogs that need medication several times a day. I have two large crates as my dogs are over 50 pounds if that is something that is needed.
“Subi provided excellent care for our two older cats for over 2 weeks on a daily basis with special attention to the individual feeding requirements for each of our cats We were provided pictures each day of the the food, water and cleaned litter box, along with cute snapshots of our cats in various places. Subi took care of a a few extra requests as well, including watering a droopy plant and locating the robotic vacuum cleaner and placing it back on its dock for the next cycle of cleaning. We returned home to calm contented cats. We appreciate all the Subi did for our cats and our peace of mind.”
About: I’ve had cats my whole life and started helping take care of them when I was little. I’ve watched and cared for my own cats and my family’s cats, including feeding them, cleaning up after them, and making sure they’re comfortable and cared for.
“With the weather and really warm temps this week, this was a last minute booking that allowed Ludo to get in the house during the hottest part of the day after spending the morning and early afternoon outside. Amber was able to accommodate the last minute request and help out with that!”
“April was my first Rover feeder and I couldn’t have been happier. She went the extra mile (brought in packages, sent pictures, gave pets) and communicated amazingly. I will be remembering her services for next time.”

About: I have a special interest in senior dogs. I have a 17 year old dachshund mix and a 12 year old dachshund. I have adopted hospice dogs and have been a hospice foster. I have experience as a dog foster for rescues in the Twin Cities and am also a volunteer at Animal Humane Society. I work from home and am here most of the time. No problem administering meds, including injections. I work full time from home, so I am almost always here to tend to the dogs. Caring for my own two dogs is an important part of my life and I make sure I’m always meeting their needs. I have two children who live with me 50% of the time. They are 9 and 4 and have lived with small, senior dogs their entire lives. They are very respectful of dogs and I never leave the kids with the dogs unsupervised. I’m very vigilant about how my kids interact with dogs. I have a fenced in yard and secure home in the suburbs. Boarded dogs will be treated like members of my family. I will follow requested instructions and dogs are welcome on the furniture and bed.
“Terry and Samantha took great care of my puppy. They had her for 6 hours and were attentive to all the needs that a small puppy has. I felt very comfortable leaving Bettie with them and will definitely use them again.”
“Fun in the sun! Our two doodles were very sleepy when we got home. From the photos David sent I could tell that they were enjoying their stay. It’s clear that David really cares about dogs in his approach and interactions with our two.”
“We needed a last minute sitter and Anna was able to take our little guy on such a short notice. She did such a wonderful job with getting Louie adjusted as it was his first time. She sent pictures through out the day to help make us feel comfortable.”
“Another fun daycare day for my puppy at Michelle’s. After playing with the other puppy’s and running the acreage he is all tuckered out. Thank you Michelle!!”
“Kayti took great care of Sutton for the day in her home. She shared great pictures during the day of Sutton playing in the yard with other pups. It made our busy day of soccer games and grad parties easier to enjoy knowing our puppy was being well cared for. Thanks, Kayti!”
“Trinity was very responsive and helped us out for a last minute dog-sitting need. Communication and care were excellent, and Diesel the chocolate lab was such a friendly playmate for my dog.”
“Patricia and Patrick welcomed my dogs in their home. My dogs, Frappe' and Lily loved the house and the backyard very much. When I picked the dogs up I could tell they had been well cared for. See you again :) Thank you!”
“Amber did a great job with our husky who has separation anxiety for an evening! She was super communicative before and during her time with her. She was very thorough about any instructions or asking about anything Izze might need. Izze is a top notch escape artist, so Ambers fully fenced in yard did a good job containing her. She sent photos during the evening and I’m sure Izze had a great time playing with her sweet kids. We would not hesitate to bring Izze back to Amber and her family in the future!”
“Jacob is easy to work with about Buckshot's needs and sudden unexpected changes in our vacation plans. We are looking for 3 sitters in our area to look after him for out of town trips and doggie day care. Jacob is now on our list for dog care. Thank you Jacob”
About: I have had cats and dogs my entire life. Experience training my own puppy. CPR and medication administration. Gentle and patient with all animals, I build trust first, then a relationship on their schedule. I work from home so my schedule is very flexible and I can be home (in mine or yours) as much as needed/wanted. My time outside the home usually involves dog parks and dog walks with my own pup. In my home I allow visitors to acclimate on their own schedule and according to their comfort. I have a very sweet and social 1 year old dog who loves join me and meet other pups. I introduce the pups in a safe environment and where they are both comfortable, always monitoring for safety and if either needs a break. Your fur baby will get whatever it needs to be happy and safe, whether that is leashed for potty breaks, kenneled if that is your preference, around the clock supervision, etc.

“We have been having Emma be our rover sitter for a good handful of weeks and we love her! Most importantly, Luna, our pup, adores Emma. I would 100% recommend Emma and truly trust her with my pup. So thankful for her and how well she loves our little Luna 💖”
“Kim took excellent care of Oliver and could tell from the pics that he was having a great time and was happy! I also came home to a happy and wiggly dog - which are good measures for his day and the care he received. Would of course recommend her to others for care of their doggos!”
“Kayti has been great for Snoop. She walked him this week while I was having construction done at my home. She went above and beyond as there was an incident and she stay longer to ensure he was ok. I’m so thankful for her professionalism and care.”
About: As a dog owner myself, I know how important it is to find someone you trust with your pet. I care for every dog as if they were my own, taking the time to learn their routine, personality, and preferences so they feel comfortable and at home. I have experience with a large, active German Shepherd and am comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes and energy levels. While I do have a resident dog, every pet's comfort and safety comes first. My home allows dogs to be separated when needed, and I'm happy to provide individual walks, feeding routines, and personalized attention so every dog has a positive experience. What sets me apart is my communication and attention to detail. I'll keep you updated with photos and messages throughout your pet's stay, so you can enjoy your time away knowing they're safe, happy, and well cared for. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, and dependable home where your pet is treated like family. I have a hybrid work schedule, which means I work from home several days each week and have flexibility to provide plenty of attention, potty breaks, and exercise throughout the day. I plan my schedule around the pets in my care and prioritize keeping them on their normal routine as much as possible. Whether it's morning walks, playtime, feeding, or evening cuddles, my goal is to provide a safe, comfortable, and stress-free experience so your pet feels right at home. I have a fully fenced yard where dogs can safely play and get their energy out. I also have a friendly resident German Shepherd who enjoys other dogs, so guest dogs should be comfortable around larger breeds. That said, your pet's safety and comfort always come first. My home is set up so dogs can be separated if needed, and I always supervise introductions and interactions. I'm happy to provide individual walks, feed according to your dog's normal schedule, administer oral medications if needed, and accommodate crate routines if that's what your dog is used to. I will keep you updated with photos and messages throughout their stay so you can have peace of mind while you're away. We have a toddler in our home (who has grown up with our dog and is respectful), so guest dogs should be comfortable around young children. Safety is my top priority, and I carefully supervise all interactions between pets and family members.
“Tamany has been very reliable and punctual which we greatly appreciate! She has been wonderful with our dog who can be a challenge at times and is very competent at her job. We are grateful we found her!”
“Emily was incredibly patient and caring for my two dogs. My boy can be a bit fussy and my girl is terminally ill. Emily always checked in and made sure that my requests were met and went above and beyond to make sure my little girl was ok. It was a great relief to have her help while I also had an extra dog in the house and to know the dogs were getting exercise and extra attention.”
About: I’ve loved animals all my life and love caring for them! 🩷 I previously worked as a Pet Care Technician and cared for dogs and cats each day of the week. I have the skills to handle dogs of all sizes and breeds. My schedule is open in the mornings & afternoons and occasional evenings. I would love to get in contact with you to schedule a meet & greet to see if I’m a good fit ☀️ I am available to come and hang out with your animals at your house and give them the exercise and cuddles they need! I can also do any feeding or other activities that are wanted.
About: Samantha and I have been dog owners all our lives but due to losing our last fur baby to Lymphoma at 4 years old we now find our house too empty with no 4-legged babies to care for so we would love the opportunity to love yours like they are our own. This is the first time we have lived in a house with no dogs so it feel too empty and quiet. We have a large fenced in yard and our property is adjacent to a park with miles of walking trails. I work from home so your fur baby will have constant companionship while vacationing at our house. I work from home and take daily walks in the park behind our house so attention and exercise is the foundation of our pet sitting philosophy. We have a fenced in yard and offer a husband and wife team to look after your 4-legged family member. We both have a lifetime of experience caring for and keeping pups safe and happy.
About: I currently work full time nights at a hospital and I am also previously worked in emergency vet medicine for 4 years. I have always loved animals big and small. I hope to get to care for yours soon! I am here to care for your pets in the exact same way you do while you are away. You just let me know how you would like me to care for them and I will do just that. I have stayed over nights with a Labradors, beagles, golden retriever, Pomeranian, cats, Australian shepherd etc. and we had a blast. I can also give baths as needed or medication if they are on daily pills/oral liquid/shots anything. I hope you will consider me and I hope to help you out soon!!! I do work full time however I work nights so I am home during the day taking care of my own golden. So I am happy to assist you and take care or check in on your baby/babies! I treat your house like my own. I cleaned houses growing up and I always treated others houses with respect and care. If I move/use something I put it back etc.

“Dafflyn has been great with Granger. She’s helped me during long work days and had great communication. I can tell when I get home that my pup has been well cared for. Highly suggest!”
“Amber was a pleasure to work with. She communicated even minor updates, cared so much that she cleaned up a small excitement piddle on the floor, and other things she noticed as things to be aware of. She was kind enough to also move a delivered package indoors for us. We absolutely look forward to future care with Amber as the need arises.”
