“We have left our dog with Alisha & Cameron on several occasions now. Rue absolutely adores going to their house and always comes home tuckered out, happy, and healthy! They are very attentive, experienced, and regularly send us pup updates during our trips. We cannot recommend them enough and will continue using their services for future travels!”
“When my plans for my 10-day vacation fell through, I was incredibly stressed about finding a place for my dog to stay. Fortunately, I happened upon Patti and Patrick and after speaking with them my worries vanished. It is clear that they both are dog lovers and will be sure to spoil your furry four legged friends as much as you spoil them. The first night I received a picture of Lola lounging on the couch with Patti and Lola looked so at ease that she may have been actually smiling. This was of great comfort to mea and I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing that Lola was being attentively cared for by Patti & Patrick.”
“Thank you for taking such great care of Grizzly. He came home happy and tired. We loved receiving all of the updates and photos. We will definitely be reaching out the next time we need a dog sitter!”
“Anna is amazing. She has a calm and centered personality which has been wonderful for my dog. She is flexible, understanding and I completely trust her with my dog for both short term and long term stays. My dog LOVES going to her home!! Large run space outside, nice loving home inside. Highly recommend.”
“Brody's first weekend with Brianna and her family was wonderful! We got lots of pics and videos (which we shared with some guests at our son's wedding - a big hit when people asked where Brody was staying!). Brody especially loves Brianna's daughter and follows her everywhere. We are so thankful we chose this family and will be using again!”
“Brandy and her family did a wonderful job taking care of my dog! Photos every day! My dog is a geriatric with special needs and he was very well taken care of. I would definitely use them again!”
“We were so pleased with how well our dogs were treated and the updates we received. You can definitely tell Princesa and Bradley love dogs, are compassionate, and truly want to provide a loving place for pets. Their land and house is perfect. We can't wait to use them again!”
“Kyle did a great job caring for our pup while we were out of town and was extremely prompt with all of our correspondence; including in our request to watch our pup, which really put us at ease! I definitely recommend him! :)”
“McKayla and Dillon did a fantastic job taking care of Talia!! They provided daily photo updates, took her on walks around the neighborhood, and made sure she was comfortable and happy throughout her visit. It was clear that Talia had a great time staying with them. We will definitely be booking with them again soon!”
“Luke and Rachel have great communication. My pup had some stomach issues and they asked (and I agreed) to feeding her chicken and rice. They bought the ingredients, and helped her to stabilize. I couldn’t ask for better care!”
“If you’re looking for a great dog sitter, look no further because Julie is the Best of the Best! She took such great of our dog while we were away. He requires some extra TLC because he needs medicine with his food. She followed all of our directions well and kept us informed on how he was doing. We greatly enjoyed seeing pictures and videos of him. We will definitely have Julie watch our dog in the future!”
“Nikki was responsive and sent frequent updates. She clearly loves dogs and I felt Bosco was in good hands with her. He came home tired and happy from playing with her dogs and a couple other Rover pets that were also staying with her. I’d definitely consider booking with her again in the future.”
“My pup spent the week over the 4th of the July with Katie's family and had the best time of her life. Libby went boating, swimming and met new friends. Thank you Katie for all the loving care.”
“Monika and her pet family were wonderful with my two dogs. My dogs got along well with her pets and loved the large, fenced back yard. My older dog is deaf and has some GI issues requiring medication which Monika took care of for me. The pictures she sent on a daily basis showed how happy they were and cared for. They stayed for a week and loved every minute with her family.”
“Ellen and her family took such great care of Ollie! Ollie loved playing with the kids and got along great with their dog Lucky. We got regular pupdates and Ollie got lots of attention and affection during his stay. We will book again for sure !”

“Heather was wonderful with our two cats. She was attentive and communicated well throughout the entire process. Our cats loved her and one is usually especially skeptical of people outside of our family. We are happy to have a wonderful new sitter to watch our fur babies.”

I work from home currently and have a lot of flexibility. My meetings tend to be in the mornings between 9-12. My schedule does vary. I would prefer to care for pets in their own home. In the right circumstance i would have a dog stay in my own home.
About: I have a cat named Luna, and she was the first pet I’ve ever had completely on my own. She quickly turned me into a total cat person! Caring for her has taught me how important it is to provide not only food, water, and a clean litter box, but also daily playtime, enrichment, and lots of affection. Luna is truly my pride and joy, and I’ll care for your cat with the same patience, love, and attention that I give her every day.
“Brianna has been doing drop in/walk visits with Parker. She’s fantastic with him, so clearly a dog lover!!! I couldn’t have asked for a better person to take care of him, and I would highly recommend her!!”
“We’re so grateful to Jeff and Sherry for checking in on our 2 cats! We feel good knowing they are in trusted and caring hands. Great communication and updates. Thanks Jeff!”
“Rylan did a wonderful job looking after our cat while we were on a recent trip. She kept in communication with us, sent pictures, and coaxed our shy cat out for some attention and petting - and even brought in packages that were delivered. We felt good that all was well at our home while we were gone. We will use Rylan again.”
About: I’ve cared for several cats over the years and understand that every cat has their own unique personality and routine. Whether they’re playful and social or more independent, I’m happy to provide patient, attentive care while you’re away. I’ll make sure your cat has fresh food and water, a clean litter box, plenty of affection (if they want it!), and a calm, safe environment so you can have peace of mind knowing they’re well cared for.
“Norah did a fabulous job tending to my cats (and home) while I was away! I feel lucky to have found her and look forward to working with her again. Thanks Norah!!!”
About: I had my first dog when I was 7 years old, I was helping my dad to train my dog. I was responsible for his walks, food, etc. After my first dog experience, I’ve decided that animals make me so happy. I had 8-10 senior/young dogs that I took care of. I also had four cats that I was taking care of. Some birds, fish, turtles, horses… I genuinely love spending time with animals I am currently in college full time, we can always schedule a week ahead to make sure if I have enough time for your dog! Unfortunately I won’t be able to take your dog to my house for nights but I can take them during the day. I have fenced backyard that your animals can have their own space and have fun!
About: What sets me apart is my combination of professional experience and a lifetime of hands-on pet care. I spent over three years working in a dog daycare and boarding facility, caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, ages, and personalities. I also worked as a pet store manager, which gave me valuable experience with animal behavior, care, and overall pet wellness. I understand that every pet is unique, so I take the time to learn their routine, personality, and specific needs to help them feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, anxious, or a senior needing extra attention, I provide patient, personalized care tailored to them. I am comfortable administering medications, following detailed care instructions, and providing regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in caring and capable hands. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I work from home most days, which allows me to provide plenty of attention, companionship, potty breaks, and exercise throughout the day. I only go into the office one day per week, so I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate most pets’ routines and needs. Caring for animals has always been a part of my life, and I enjoy incorporating walks, playtime, feeding schedules, and quality one-on-one attention into my day. Whether your pet prefers an active day or a quiet companion nearby, I can provide a comfortable and consistent environment while you’re away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to maintain their normal routine so they feel comfortable and secure while their family is away. I follow all feeding schedules, exercise routines, medication instructions, and any other specific care requests. I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, playtime, affection, and mental stimulation based on their individual needs and personality. I understand that inviting someone into your home requires trust, so I treat every home with the same respect and care I would my own. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for while you’re away.
“Grace is an amazing pet sitter. She has a calm, go-with-the-flow energy and was really great with my cats. I was anxious about leaving them, as this was my first trip since they both started medication. Grace provided me with a lot of reassurance and sent me pictures and updates of my cats throughout my trip. I will 100% be booking with Grace again.”
“Leann was punctual for the appointed times to feed our kitty (and our kitty loves to be fed on time). She sent lots of cute photos letting us know our cat was eating well. She was caring and our kitty cat was in good spirits upon our return.”
“Lauren was wonderful with our big guy Max. She was very communicative and sent lots of pictures of him enjoying the deck outside. She brushed him and made sure he got lots of attention while we were gone. It truly made our vacation much more enjoyable knowing she would be stopping by to spend time with him. I would highly recommend Lauren.”
About: I have owned and cared for cats my entire life and am comfortable with cats of all ages, from kittens to senior cats. I understand that every cat has a unique personality and needs their own level of attention, space, and care. I will make sure your cat feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you're away!
“Bryn did a wonderful job taking care of our pets! She paid lots of attention to our elderly cat and sent plenty of pictures and thorough updates. We came back to a happy and healthy boy. Can't recommend enough!”
About: I have had and loved dogs my entire life! I have experience with puppies, senior dogs and everywhere in between. I took a training class with a well-known local dog trainer prior to adopting my last puppy, and I learned a lot! I have also taken care of cats, turtles and chickens. I work part-time, so I'd love to fill my free time by taking care of your pet! A quick walk/drop-in or a longer stay, I can make it work. I will use my experience, but more importantly your instructions, to take care of your pet in the best way possible. You know them best, so tell me what they like and need and I will make it happen!

“Great first day with a wonderful family! This was our daycare practice day before his weekend stay next week. Brody was very happy and well cared for. We received wonderful pics and are very pleased with how it went.”
About: Dogs have been an important part of my life for many years. I currently own an 8-year-old Siberian Husky named Storm, so I have extensive experience caring for large, energetic dogs and understanding their exercise needs. We have a large, fully fenced private backyard where dogs can safely play and explore. My family provides a loving, structured home environment, and dogs receive plenty of attention and care throughout the day. We also have two young children, so we only accept dogs that are friendly, gentle, and comfortable around kids. My goal is to make every dog feel safe, happy, and at home while their owners are away. Pet care is already a consistent part of my daily routine. I am a stay-at-home mom to two children, so I am home throughout the day and able to provide attention, care, and supervision for pets. Each day, we go on at least one longer walk with our dog, in addition to shorter potty breaks and outdoor time as needed. These walks are a regular part of our schedule and help ensure our 8-year-old Siberian Husky gets the exercise and stimulation he needs. We also spend time in our large fenced-in backyard, which gives additional safe space for activity and play. Because I’m home during the day, I’m able to be flexible and responsive to a dog’s needs—whether that’s extra potty breaks, attention, or adjusting activity based on energy level or weather. Overall, pet care fits very naturally into our household rhythm and is already an important part of our daily family routine. We start the day with feeding, potty breaks, and a walk, and we typically do at least one longer walk each day to make sure our dog gets enough exercise and mental stimulation. Since we have an 8-year-old Siberian Husky, we’re very familiar with meeting the needs of high-energy dogs and making sure they stay active and engaged. Throughout the day, pets are part of our home environment. Because I am a stay-at-home mom to two young children, I’m home and available to provide regular supervision, attention, and outdoor breaks as needed. We also have a large fenced-in backyard, which allows for safe outdoor play and extra exercise time. In the evenings, we maintain a calm routine with another potty break, feeding, and time spent relaxing together as a family. I focus on keeping pets comfortable, well-exercised, and integrated into a structured but flexible household where they are treated like part of the family.
“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.”
“Ellen’s wonderful my puppy got to meet her daughter,son,and their dog ❤️🐾. She took really great care of my puppy Vince for the day. I highly recommend her. I had a wonderful first day of work knowing that my puppy was in the best care for the day.”
About: I’ve always had a special place in my heart for dogs. I have cared for my own dogs and others ranging from puppies to senior dogs, since I was a teenager. I work from home full time so your pet will always have someone around to hang out or play with. They will have plenty of attention from me and my sweet kiddos who will love on your furry friend as if it were their own. I have a senior beagle who will quickly become your fur babies best friend. He is super chill and sleeps most of the day away. I also have two kiddos who love to play with pups and take them for walks. Your pet will be leashed when going outside but will have plenty of space to move about.
“I have used Julie's services four times now and every single time Echo comes home happy and exhausted. Julie's been great at sending pictures and updates throughout Echo's stay and I always know my girl is having a fun time! I will continue to utilize Julie's services when ever I can.”
“Julie is absolutely wonderful! She genuinely cares about your fur baby like they are her own. We got updates, pictures and even a video throughout the day of how Oliver was doing. We’ll definitely be rebooking with Julie again in the future! She’s an 11 out of 10!”
“Shelly was awesome. She was flexible when I had to change my dates. There was plenty of open space and other animals for Bear to play with. Shelly also was helping with our potty training since Bear is only three months old. I will use her again.”
“My dog had a fantastic day. He went on two walks, played with kids, met the neighbors and watched part of the day roll by on the porch. And when I picked him up, he absolutely crashed in the back seat. Paige and family are awesome!! Can’t wait to go back.”
“Luke is so committed to giving great care to your dog. He keeps them safe, hydrated, listens to your requests & helps them to get exercise & socialization in his fenced yard. Rachel will “love on” your pet too..He sincerely cares & will communicate well with owners.”
“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!!”
About: My husband and I have both grown up with pets and have continued caring for animals throughout our adult lives. We have extensive hands-on experience with dogs and cats of all ages and temperaments, and we currently care for a variety of animals in our home, including fish, a bearded dragon, a leopard gecko, a hamster, and hermit crabs. This has given us a strong understanding of different care needs, routines, and behaviors across species. We’re attentive, patient, and comfortable following specific instructions — whether that’s maintaining feeding schedules, administering basic care, or helping pets feel calm and safe in a new environment. We truly treat every pet as if they were our own. Because we work from home, pet care naturally fits into our daily routine. We’re around throughout the day to provide attention, playtime, feeding, and companionship, not just quick check-ins. Our flexible schedule allows us to adapt to each pet’s needs, whether that means extra cuddles, medication reminders, or keeping a consistent routine so pets feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. We care for pets as if they are part of our own family. In our home, pets have plenty of space to relax and play safely. We live on 10 acres, which allows for supervised outdoor time, walks, and fresh air, and we also have a large outdoor kennel available when appropriate for a pet’s comfort and safety. When caring for pets in a client’s home, we focus on consistency, attentiveness, and respect for each pet’s routine. We follow feeding schedules, exercise needs, medication instructions, and any special requests closely. We make it a priority to be responsive, communicative, and attentive so both pets and owners feel comfortable and confident while they’re away.
“Cate and Tim and Ainsley were great to Murphy and their place was a perfect playground. Murphy came home happy and tired. It was our first Rover and she had no stress. Highly recommend them!”
About: I’m blessed to be able to work from home to provide your pup the attention they need. Your pup will have two daily walks, playtime in the fenced backyard, a box of indoor toys with two dog beds and a kennel bed to choose from. My pup Gus recently passed so, I’m looking to share my love, cuddles, energy and basically spoil your pup. I used Roover for my pup so I know how important receiving multiple daily photos and videos are so you know your pet is safe and having fun. If your pet requires, I offer baths, brushing, trimming, administering medications, and hygiene needs. I was particular with my pups care and I can do the same for you, consistently is important to you and your pup. I’m excited to provide care to your pup’s needs until you return home. Since I work from home, it’s easy to provide the personalized care your pet needs. I’m willing to customize my schedule for your pet needs. Your pets safety is my priority. I provide leashed walks, and/or play time in the backyard. I’m able to customize a plan that best fits your dog’s needs.

About: Hi, I’m Elizabeth — a full-time, work-from-home dog mom living in a beautiful, wooded setting with trails right outside our door. Dogs in my care enjoy fresh air, frequent walks, and a calm, loving home environment. I’m outside with the pups multiple times a day — whether it’s structured exercise, supervised playtime, or a slow sniff-and-stroll for our senior friends. We have a sweet, social 2-year-old Standard Poodle who gets along with everyone — from rambunctious puppies to mellow old souls. My husband also works from home, which means your dog will never be left alone and always has an extra set of hands. I have experience with all ages and stages — from crate training curious puppies to providing gentle support for older dogs and administering medications (oral and topical). I follow feeding and care routines to the letter, and I’m always happy to provide updates, pics, or videos so you can relax knowing your pup is safe, happy, and loved. Whether you’re planning a vacation or just need a reliable day-to-day helping hand, I treat every dog like one of my own — with patience, play, and a whole lot of love. I work from home full-time, so I’m with the dogs all day — not just “checking in,” but truly present. We go on multiple walks each day, explore nearby trails, and take plenty of breaks for play, snuggles, and outside time. My own dog thrives with this routine, and I love extending that same level of care to the pets I host. Whether it’s managing medications, reinforcing training, or simply being a calm, consistent presence, pet care is a natural and joyful part of my everyday life. In my home, pets are treated like family. I maintain a calm, structured, and loving environment with plenty of time outdoors I follow your pet’s routines closely: feeding schedules, meds, crate time, and any house rules you use at home. Dogs are never left alone for more than a few hours (both my husband and I work from home), and we keep a close eye on how everyone’s adjusting — especially first-timers, puppies, or older pets who need extra support.

I create a calm environment with plenty of affection, attention, and care tailored to your pet’s needs.
About: I have always been a pet lover; I've had pets my whole life. Including cats, dogs, fish, reptiles, and even rats! I have experience dog/cat sitting with my Mom who was a vet tech for 25 years. I currently have a Crested Gecko, a Pac-man Frog, a White’s Tree Frog, a PitX, and 2 kittens! I’m currently available every day, with the exception of Wednesdays and Sundays from 6 PM to 8 PM due to family commitments. I’m flexible and happy to work with your schedule whenever possible! The safety and happiness of every pet in my care is my top priority. I maintain clear communication with owners, offering regular updates and photos of your pet’s adventures. By understanding each pet’s unique personality and needs, I create a trusting bond. I approach every walk with care and attention, ensuring your dog feels safe, loved, and excited to get out for their daily exercise.
“Gavin did a SUPER job with our 2-1/2 year old red lab, Ruby! Gavin obviously loves dogs, and Ruby took a shining to Gavin. Gavin always arrived promptly and sent us great photos of Ruby on her walks! We definitely plan on asking Gavin to walk Ruby in the future!”
About: I have grown up with dogs my entire life. Our family animals (dog, cats, goats, Guinea pigs, birds, lizards, and a pony) fostered my lifelong love of animals. As a dog sitter, I have experience working with many different breeds and personalities. I have worked at a cruelty-free animal shelter, where I walked dogs, provided playtime, and helped take care of their living spaces. I have experience dog sitting in my home and understand the importance of helping dogs feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. When your dog is with me, they will receive plenty of attention, affection, and care. I am happy to take your dog on walks as often as needed and look forward to having a companion to play and cuddle with. On days I am not at school, I am at home, which allows me to give your dog my full attention throughout the day. I genuinely care about making every dog feel happy, comfortable, and secure, and I will treat yours as if they were my own! I am currently a doctoral student studying Acupuncture & Chinese Medicine and my schedule allows me to provide pet care throughout the week. On Tuesdays and Wednesdays, I am on campus for part of the day, and Thursday through Monday I study from home, which gives me the availability to provide your pets with plenty of companionship and attention throughout the day. I live in a house with my parents. The upstairs level is my dedicated living space, which includes a bedroom, bathroom, and a living room area. Your pet will spend their time in this space with me! My parents have a cat that lives downstairs. They will not be living in the same space. We live on 4 acres, providing ample outdoor space for play, exploration, and exercise. We are located on rural road, which is great for long walks. When caring for pets, I prioritize maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, exercise, playtime, and any special instructions you provide.

I have always had pets growing up as a child and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. I have a passion for learning and understanding all different types of animals. My 7 years of experience in Pet Care is from having my own pets and caring for family, friends and volunteering over the years. I have a dog named Cody and I’ve become known as the “Neighborhood Sitter” where I live because I babysit and dog sit for EVERYONE I know. I am very fun, outgoing, and enthusiastic and that all comes to life more when I’m around animals. I am currently working full time but my shifts are spaced well enough for me to be able to care for pets around my schedule. I am very loving and gentle with all pets and can be very outgoing and energetic while playing with them as well. I am very responsible and can manage any needs your pet may have.
About: I’ve taken care of pets for years. Friends and family rely on me to take care of their pets when they are away. I’ve taken care of older pets in addition to giving eye drops and oral medication to cats and dogs. I have a cat at home so I am used to her routine and am easily able to fit your pet into my routine as well! I am willing and available to watch your pets. I do work second shift during the week but very available on the weekends. I have an upstairs and basement with plenty of room for our cat, Raven to run and play. She loves to lay on my yoga mat I have out in the living room. We have her litter box in the basement and plenty of toys for her.
About: I’ve been walking and running my own dogs for years. Decided it would be a nice part time job for me. I have recently moved from south Mpls to White Bear Lake and would love to add a pup or two to my weekly walks/jogs. I'm semi retired and have plenty of time this summer to walk your pup(s). I like to jog too so if your dog is more energetic I can do that as well. I have two dogs of my own. I am no longer living in my home so miss walking/running my pups. I have a fenced in yard and both my dogs are micro chipped.
About: I loveee dogs cats and all animals! I know that every pup has their own unique personality. I have my two sweet girls and a baby boy they couldn’t be more different, so I’m very comfortable working with dogs of all temperaments, and energy levels. And would love to work with your baby’s! I have a open flexible schedule I can do mornings, afternoons, and evenings and am available daily weekly or occasionally to whatever best fits your schedule! Feel free to set up a meet and great to see if I’m your best match! I prioritize safety and having fun with them I have a pet free down stairs and a big fenced in back yard. my community has dog friendly trail. I can also accommodate to whatever is best convenient for you.
About: I have years of dog sitting and walking experience. I grew up with dogs and am comfortable with all sizes and breeds, including pups who may be a little feisty on a leash. Whether it’s a quick potty break, a long walk, or full house sitting/boarding, I treat every dog like my own! I’d love to meet your furry friend and give them great care while you’re away! Feel free to message me with any questions. I work from home on Mondays and Fridays, and head into the office Tuesday through Thursday. This gives me excellent flexibility for early morning walks before work, evening drop-ins or walks after the office, plus plenty of availability during the day on Mondays/Fridays, weekends, and overnights. I am happy to provide care for your pet based on your preferences. On leash walks, playing in your yard, staying at your home, etc.
“Michael has shown up again for our pup when we needed him for a good walk while we were out of town! He is punctual and makes sure to send a lot of pictures and details about the walk! Thank you Michael for caring for our good boy!”

“We have left our dog with Alisha & Cameron on several occasions now. Rue absolutely adores going to their house and always comes home tuckered out, happy, and healthy! They are very attentive, experienced, and regularly send us pup updates during our trips. We cannot recommend them enough and will continue using their services for future travels!”
“When my plans for my 10-day vacation fell through, I was incredibly stressed about finding a place for my dog to stay. Fortunately, I happened upon Patti and Patrick and after speaking with them my worries vanished. It is clear that they both are dog lovers and will be sure to spoil your furry four legged friends as much as you spoil them. The first night I received a picture of Lola lounging on the couch with Patti and Lola looked so at ease that she may have been actually smiling. This was of great comfort to mea and I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing that Lola was being attentively cared for by Patti & Patrick.”
“Thank you for taking such great care of Grizzly. He came home happy and tired. We loved receiving all of the updates and photos. We will definitely be reaching out the next time we need a dog sitter!”
“Brandy and her family did a wonderful job taking care of my dog! Photos every day! My dog is a geriatric with special needs and he was very well taken care of. I would definitely use them again!”
“We were so pleased with how well our dogs were treated and the updates we received. You can definitely tell Princesa and Bradley love dogs, are compassionate, and truly want to provide a loving place for pets. Their land and house is perfect. We can't wait to use them again!”
“Kyle did a great job caring for our pup while we were out of town and was extremely prompt with all of our correspondence; including in our request to watch our pup, which really put us at ease! I definitely recommend him! :)”
“McKayla and Dillon did a fantastic job taking care of Talia!! They provided daily photo updates, took her on walks around the neighborhood, and made sure she was comfortable and happy throughout her visit. It was clear that Talia had a great time staying with them. We will definitely be booking with them again soon!”
“Luke and Rachel have great communication. My pup had some stomach issues and they asked (and I agreed) to feeding her chicken and rice. They bought the ingredients, and helped her to stabilize. I couldn’t ask for better care!”
“If you’re looking for a great dog sitter, look no further because Julie is the Best of the Best! She took such great of our dog while we were away. He requires some extra TLC because he needs medicine with his food. She followed all of our directions well and kept us informed on how he was doing. We greatly enjoyed seeing pictures and videos of him. We will definitely have Julie watch our dog in the future!”
“Nikki was responsive and sent frequent updates. She clearly loves dogs and I felt Bosco was in good hands with her. He came home tired and happy from playing with her dogs and a couple other Rover pets that were also staying with her. I’d definitely consider booking with her again in the future.”
“My pup spent the week over the 4th of the July with Katie's family and had the best time of her life. Libby went boating, swimming and met new friends. Thank you Katie for all the loving care.”
“Monika and her pet family were wonderful with my two dogs. My dogs got along well with her pets and loved the large, fenced back yard. My older dog is deaf and has some GI issues requiring medication which Monika took care of for me. The pictures she sent on a daily basis showed how happy they were and cared for. They stayed for a week and loved every minute with her family.”
“Ellen and her family took such great care of Ollie! Ollie loved playing with the kids and got along great with their dog Lucky. We got regular pupdates and Ollie got lots of attention and affection during his stay. We will book again for sure !”
“Michelle was awesome. She did a great job taking care of Tucker, and she kept in touch with me during his stay by sending me pictures with quick notes to keep me updated.”
“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.”
About: Dogs have been an important part of my life for many years. I currently own an 8-year-old Siberian Husky named Storm, so I have extensive experience caring for large, energetic dogs and understanding their exercise needs. We have a large, fully fenced private backyard where dogs can safely play and explore. My family provides a loving, structured home environment, and dogs receive plenty of attention and care throughout the day. We also have two young children, so we only accept dogs that are friendly, gentle, and comfortable around kids. My goal is to make every dog feel safe, happy, and at home while their owners are away. Pet care is already a consistent part of my daily routine. I am a stay-at-home mom to two children, so I am home throughout the day and able to provide attention, care, and supervision for pets. Each day, we go on at least one longer walk with our dog, in addition to shorter potty breaks and outdoor time as needed. These walks are a regular part of our schedule and help ensure our 8-year-old Siberian Husky gets the exercise and stimulation he needs. We also spend time in our large fenced-in backyard, which gives additional safe space for activity and play. Because I’m home during the day, I’m able to be flexible and responsive to a dog’s needs—whether that’s extra potty breaks, attention, or adjusting activity based on energy level or weather. Overall, pet care fits very naturally into our household rhythm and is already an important part of our daily family routine. We start the day with feeding, potty breaks, and a walk, and we typically do at least one longer walk each day to make sure our dog gets enough exercise and mental stimulation. Since we have an 8-year-old Siberian Husky, we’re very familiar with meeting the needs of high-energy dogs and making sure they stay active and engaged. Throughout the day, pets are part of our home environment. Because I am a stay-at-home mom to two young children, I’m home and available to provide regular supervision, attention, and outdoor breaks as needed. We also have a large fenced-in backyard, which allows for safe outdoor play and extra exercise time. In the evenings, we maintain a calm routine with another potty break, feeding, and time spent relaxing together as a family. I focus on keeping pets comfortable, well-exercised, and integrated into a structured but flexible household where they are treated like part of the family.
“Alex was great with my nervous guy. We’ve boarded him in the past and he always seemed to be anxious and have trouble eating. He settled in quickly with Alex. I think being in a home environment was more like his everyday routine.”
“Lisa is amazing! This was my first time using Rover and I was nervous about who I would find. Lisa and her boys are dog lovers that do Rover to get their dog fix since they travel and no longer have their own dog. She is a runner and Lola came back exhausted from the walks. I feel so lucky to have found Lisa and cannot recommend her enough!”
“Would absolutely recommend Kaitlyn! She took fantastic care of our Bernedoodle while we were away, and we loved the daily updates. Booking, communication and pickup and drop off were super easy. Thanks for taking great care of our pup!”
