“Cynthia was great, her fenced-in yard was beautiful and spacious. Her dogs are sweet and got along with mine just fine. They got to spend a lot of time outside too, which made me happy. Would definitely book her again”

“Margarita and her family were awesome! Pictures were sent every day of the pups having fun and their property is a great open space for the dogs to relax outside. Will definitely book again!”

“Katrina and Drew were great! They were quick to communicate and were very accommodating to minor schedule changes. Our pup did so well she ran out of food! She usually skips meals when away from home and I pack accordingly. Katrina quickly replaced the food to keep Schatzi on schedule!”

“Ana and Michael provided a wonderful place for us to leave Blossom for a few days. We were immediately comfortable and welcomed. Blossom made herself at home right away. She loved the fenced in back yard and all the attention. Ana was flexible with drop off and pick up times. She also provided videos and updates on how Blossom was doing. It was a wonderful experience leaving Blossom for the first time. Thank you so much.”

“Carrie and Mark were great with our dog Sunny. We received daily picture updates and fast replies if we had any questions. They both seemed laid back and easy to work with! Will book with them again in the future 😊”

“Jenna took great care of our puppy and clearly loves animals! This was our dogs first time away from our family and she was extremely well cared for and happy/relaxed on her return. Jenna was professional and asked all the right questions about our dog’s routine and quirks. We loved receiving the daily photo updates and texts—it really put our minds at ease! Thank you Jenna!”

“Shelby and her family were amazing. She had both of my corgis for the first time for seven nights. She kept me updated throughout the day, every day. It was like she read my mind, too… as soon as I was wondering how my corgs were doing, a notification popped up from her with multiple photos of happy dogs absolutely loving their time with her. I think my dogs miss her now that they are home, haha! We will definitely book with her again!”

“Darian was amazing. We used her for a 2 week vacation and we are so grateful to have found her. We will definitely use her again. She taught our puppy how to walk on a leash, which he was struggling with before we dropped him off. We received daily updates, photos and videos, and never had to worry about him being cared for, loved on and played with.”

“Our family trust Shelley with both doodles over extended periods of time and she consistently provides them with attention, exercise, and care. The dogs love going back to her. Highly recommended for extended stays!”

About: Dog lover who has been caring for pets since childhood. I enjoy helping others with their pet care needs and making sure every dog feels safe. I currently work Tuesday- Thursday and am available for your weekend dog care needs. Your dog will get plenty of attention from my dog loving family.

About: I’ve owned dogs my whole life. I currently have 3 and live on a 6 acre farm where the dogs can run and play all day. I’m currently between jobs but anticipate that my next work will be WFH so I can care for the dogs and other farm animals day in and day out. While the yard is not fenced per se, I do have invisible fencing if your dog is used to that system. I have 3 of my own dogs that know the boundaries and stay within them. I have a 3 bedroom house with 2 of the bedrooms unoccupied so there is plenty of space. I have crates of different sizes of your dog prefers to be crated for any length of time. One of my dogs is crated when not home the other 2 are free to roam the house and very well behaved.

“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!!”

“Kaitlyn was great with our kitties while we were away. She sent us pictures and updates about them all, I appreciated having someone to depend on to take care of our babies.”

“Avaiyah did a great job with our spunky and overly friendly dog when we went on a very last minute trip to see family. We had never done anything like Rover before and have only ever used the same boarder, so we were hesitant to try it out, but she made it so easy and we will definitely be using her again!”


“AylaJean is wonderful! I had such a great vacation because I didn't have to worry about my kitties' care while we were away. She sent regular updates until we got back and my kittens were happy and healthy when we returned. We'll definitely be hiring this family again for future trips. Thank you so much!”

About: I have had dogs my whole life growing up and I currently have 2 large dogs. I would prefer if they are already potty trained. I am a full time college student with class in the mornings and afternoons. I would be able to do visits very early in the morning or after class/later in the day too. I am willing to exercise your dog with either a walk, throwing a ball or some other activity they like. Or on the flip side if they love chilling and getting attention I am totally down for that too.

About: I have taken care of dogs and horses and absolutely enjoy making sure they feel safe and loved. Pets bring so much joy and comfort. I hope to do the same for the pets I am watching. I'm currently working part-time, so I am available for more time. My son is off to the Marines, so I can stay at the client's house. This love for pet sitting began when my friends asked me to take care of their animals while they were on. vacation I prefer the pets at the client's house, where they feel more comfortable. Building trust with pets is key; they feel safe and secure while parents are gone. I will communicate with you as well as you see fit when you are gone to ensure you are happy and safe.
“I am so grateful for Bailey. She was quick to respond and took wonderful care of my Luna. When I returned she had taken out the trash for me! She even cleaned the used cat dishes. She goes above and beyond and I will definitely use her services again in the future.”

“Lauren house sat for me and took care of my two beloved cats for 11 days over the holidays and was absolutely wonderful. She sent tons of amazing photos and videos and it was very clear from the videos that my cats absolutely adored her. She was very communicative which I greatly appreciated especially seeing as I was away for a pretty long time. Lauren also left my place so clean and added some nice little touches to come home to like fresh flowers which was completely unexpected and truly above and beyond good service. I will absolutely be booking with her again if I can.”

“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.”

“Corey is fantastic! He is calm and shows genuine care and looked after our standard poodle with wonderful attention. He has 3 dogs and helped to make the stay a great experience. Highly professional and knowledgeable. Thank you Corey. John and Deanna”

“I would definitely recommend Heidi to anyone who has a pup in the Mankato area. She took amazing care of Beans! The attention and care she gave to Beans was outstanding! Beans always was happy to go with Heidi and when I went to pick him up. Beans was happy and content with the attention and care he received. Plus the picture updates were always great to see how Beans was doing. I am beyond grateful for the great care and service Heidi provided.”

“Marill was just wonderful! She's clearly a dog-lover, and Ollie had a fabulous time at her house! He played all day with her other dogs (as is evidenced by the many great photos and videos she sent me throughout the day), and came home last night happy and exhausted. He slept 15 hours straight! The idea was for him to get some energy out, and let me get some work done - so mission accomplished! I'll definitely rebook with Marill.”

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.
“She did a wonderful job with my puppy. My baby is high energy and she walked her even though it was super windy and cold. She watched her nearly all day and made sure to send pictures and updates. I highly recommend using Beth as a puppy sitter”

“Ana and her family were absolutely amazing! It’s clear that they truly understand how important our dogs are to us. Ana’s communication was unparalleled. She sent frequent updates with photos and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind while Oreo was with them. Oreo loved playing with their sweet pup Bailey in their securely fenced yard and soaking up all the loving pets from the whole family. It was obvious that they genuinely love dogs and treat their visitors like part of the family. I also really appreciated the chance to do a meet and greet ahead of time so Oreo and Bailey could meet and make sure they were a good play match. I would feel completely comfortable having Oreo stay with them again anytime, and I know he would be thrilled to go back. I won’t hesitate to reach out next time he needs some playtime and extra snuggles!”

About: I have taken care of dogs my entire life. I am part of a rescue and have had many fosters throughout my home, along with many dogs myself. I had a special needs basset hound and loved giving him the extra help he needed during his life. I also have experience with puppies, big dogs, blind dogs, and shy/breeder release! I did train my dogs starting at age 12 as well. Open at any time! Walks, potty breaks, petting session and everything in between! I have very few scheduling conflicts. Available almost all day every day :) With compassion and care. I would take care of your pet as it is needed and however you request! I would treat your animal and home as I would mine.

About: Hi! My name is Sage and I specialize in animal caretaking and welfare. I have lived my entire life with at least one animal in the house and I have been dog sitting on and off since high school. I am certified in three years of dog training and currently live with my lovely cat, London. I’ve never met a pet that I haven’t loved, and past employers would describe me as dependable, easy-going, and kind. My days are entirely open, except for the occasional one or two days a week where I am called in from one of my other jobs. I am also a full-time college student during the fall and winter time, but my summers are almost entirely clear. In my home, I live with my cat London, and four other housemates. If your animal stayed with me, they would never feel alone and would always have somebody in the house that can watch them or be there for all their needs. We have a lovely backyard full of grass, a back deck for lounging and sunbathing and a large neighborhood for daily walks. Your pet would feel like a king or queen in a castle! :)
About: I work remotely in marketing full time. We’re very grateful to have a nice home with a wonderful, large, fenced-in backyard that allows the dogs to go potty in and explore (bark!). My availability and hours are very flexible and the dogs are rarely left alone or kenneled, they are free to roam the house, I just close doors as necessary. I have never owned a dog of my own, I just grew up around dogs and cats. Mainly and most recently, it was a sisters two dogs our family spent the most time around: Gibbs (15 lb., 13 yr old, male Jack Russell Terrier & Beagle mix) and Zero (65 lb., 5 yr old, male Standard Poodle). I would basically Rover for her and her husband, which including giving the senior, anxiety-ridden dog meds (he didn’t enjoy, he would spit them up). We enjoyed being outdoors and evening walks around the neighborhood and having them a part of our family. They have then since moved to the West coast with their dogs. I work remotely and am blessed with the work-life balance it offers. I have an energetic elementary school-aged daughter. She's an empath and truly cares for all animals wellbeing! She's deeply concerned about any discomfort or distress. We have a dog-friendly orange cat named Buddy (4). He's fed first thing in the AM and enjoys chin scratches. He stays nearby me in my office or does his own thing. My daughter buses to and from school and I take a hour lunch at noon, then am done at 5 PM and we go about our evening routine. Dogs go out every few hours (sliding patio door) to the fenced in yard or when they signal me. Right in the morning and before bed. I try to get as much activity in for us as possible, especially on decent weather days. We utilize a nearby parks, dog park and walking trails in our community. Having the dogs here really motivate me to go for more walks, the dogs love them and I appreciate the eager walking company. I also live with my younger sister (23). She works full time 2 jobs as a CNA/retail, isn't home much but does help me care for the dogs, such as a short walk around the block. Our home is a 4 bed, 3 level split with a finished basement. It has a large secure, fully-fenced in yard and the property has 11 trees. Garage is attached. We all sleep in the upstairs bedrooms which is also where my office is. I have 2 litter boxes for my cat, one in garage that he prefers. The other is in the basement bathroom, where I can keep the door shut (Ive caught sisters dog eating litter covered turds). Our neighborhood is very safe and quiet. I have a reflective sash I wear out at night (this summer I was nearly ran over by an SUV when it was dark). The dogs usually sleep on the floor in my room and it's OK if they sleep on the bed, I am not concerned about fur. If the dog stinks, I can give them a bath either downstairs in the wash tub or upstairs in the bathtub. If they stay longer and start to stink, I will bathe them, because everyone feels better after a bath.
“Elizabeth cared for our Corgi and Cockapoo for two days while we were visiting the area. Our girls had so much fun with Elizabeth and her two daughters. We will absolutely book with her again.”

About: I've been taking care of my own animals since I was 8 years old. I grew up with multiple pets in my house hold. I raised a chinchilla to be 18 and my oldest dog was almost 16. Our family recently moved to the area and I’m just getting back into Rover. I'm currently a teacher so I have plenty of time to check in on your animal(s). I have a flexible schedule in the summer so I will try to work with your schedule. I am able to check in on your animal(s), give them attention, take them for a walk, and feed them/give them potty breaks. If there is bad weather or the animal needs extra attention (for longer periods of time) they can hang out in my home with me. I have three friendly golden dogs!
“Christy was excellent with communication. We needed a pet sitter near Northfield while we attended our grand daughter Sr choir concert. Riley liked Christy immediately and was a happy boy when we picked him up. Thank you!”

“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!”

“The service was really great, and I loved all the features of the app, will be using it agian. Kaitlyn was great, she was very responsive, took great photos, and provided me with updates.”

About: I’ve taken care of my Tibetan Mastiff since before I can remember, and I’m my go-to neighborhood dog walker/caretaker. I love all shapes and sizes of dogs! I’m currently an online student at MNSU, so anytime during the weekday for boarding and walking is entirely open. Weekends work for specific dates and times. I have a reliable mode of transportation and I love taking care of animals. Whether it’s bathing, feeding, walking, or just sitting with a dog, I love to be there. I have grown up with a fear reactive dog, so I have experience with reading dog’s body language and reacting accordingly.
About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was young. About 10 years ago I started watching animals for Family and Friends while they went on trips. I usually stay and watch the animals since I work from home I will be with the animals most of the time. I can also drop in and let animals out if needed. I’m very flexible. Working from home gives me that availability. I’m able to stop over and let animals out if needed as well. I can feed, walk, give meds etc. I care for the animals in their homes. I’m unable to take care of them at my house. A lot of my friends and family prefer that so the animals don’t have to change their environment.
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.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs all through my life, including chihuahuas, a yorkie, pit bulls, a dachshund mix, labs, rat terriers, and more. I love to create warm environments for doggos and give them space to be themselves. I currently work part time, but I can pet sit Fridays-Sundays and Thursday afternoons at times. I may be able to do drop-ins during the week. I can dog sit at the client’s houses and am willing to help crate train, gives baths, walks, and provide other various care services. I might be able to at my apartment, but have a dog myself and would likely need a meet and greet.

“Kayla was great. Was on time, took the pups on a nice long walk, sent a few pictures, and communicated with me when she picked them up and dropped them off. Will definitely be reaching out for here services again.”

“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 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.

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. The dog park is always a must during your pets visit with us! I have a heeler mix rescue that gets along with any dog, him and I go for a walk everyday and would love to take your pup with us! I always make sure they are treated as if they are my own!
About: I sincerely love and care for dogs so much! I have grown up with dogs my entire life and have my own border collie now, Missy.

About: I have grown up with two lovely pups in my house. I helped taking care of them and even helped in training our hunting dog! I love being around animals and especially dogs.

Moving back to college means I’m away from my dog at home. I am not ready to commit to getting a dog of my own due to living in an apartment, but I wanted the opportunity to be around dogs. So, that’s when I found rover and thought it would be perfect for someone like me! I give a lot of attention to the dogs and of course love to take them on long walks as I am quite active myself.
About: I have grown up with dogs of all sizes! With my experience in pet boarding for 2 years and 5 years as a Veterinary Assistant I am very experienced in many breeds and their needs!

“Cynthia was great, her fenced-in yard was beautiful and spacious. Her dogs are sweet and got along with mine just fine. They got to spend a lot of time outside too, which made me happy. Would definitely book her again”

“Margarita and her family were awesome! Pictures were sent every day of the pups having fun and their property is a great open space for the dogs to relax outside. Will definitely book again!”

“Katrina and Drew were great! They were quick to communicate and were very accommodating to minor schedule changes. Our pup did so well she ran out of food! She usually skips meals when away from home and I pack accordingly. Katrina quickly replaced the food to keep Schatzi on schedule!”

“Ana and Michael provided a wonderful place for us to leave Blossom for a few days. We were immediately comfortable and welcomed. Blossom made herself at home right away. She loved the fenced in back yard and all the attention. Ana was flexible with drop off and pick up times. She also provided videos and updates on how Blossom was doing. It was a wonderful experience leaving Blossom for the first time. Thank you so much.”

“Carrie and Mark were great with our dog Sunny. We received daily picture updates and fast replies if we had any questions. They both seemed laid back and easy to work with! Will book with them again in the future 😊”

“Jenna took great care of our puppy and clearly loves animals! This was our dogs first time away from our family and she was extremely well cared for and happy/relaxed on her return. Jenna was professional and asked all the right questions about our dog’s routine and quirks. We loved receiving the daily photo updates and texts—it really put our minds at ease! Thank you Jenna!”

“Shelby and her family were amazing. She had both of my corgis for the first time for seven nights. She kept me updated throughout the day, every day. It was like she read my mind, too… as soon as I was wondering how my corgs were doing, a notification popped up from her with multiple photos of happy dogs absolutely loving their time with her. I think my dogs miss her now that they are home, haha! We will definitely book with her again!”

“Darian was amazing. We used her for a 2 week vacation and we are so grateful to have found her. We will definitely use her again. She taught our puppy how to walk on a leash, which he was struggling with before we dropped him off. We received daily updates, photos and videos, and never had to worry about him being cared for, loved on and played with.”

About: Dog lover who has been caring for pets since childhood. I enjoy helping others with their pet care needs and making sure every dog feels safe. I currently work Tuesday- Thursday and am available for your weekend dog care needs. Your dog will get plenty of attention from my dog loving family. We have a large 40 acre farm with lots of room to run if desired. We have 4 dogs to play with and keep your dog company too!
About: I’ve owned dogs my whole life. I currently have 3 and live on a 6 acre farm where the dogs can run and play all day. I’m currently between jobs but anticipate that my next work will be WFH so I can care for the dogs and other farm animals day in and day out. While the yard is not fenced per se, I do have invisible fencing if your dog is used to that system. I have 3 of my own dogs that know the boundaries and stay within them. I have a 3 bedroom house with 2 of the bedrooms unoccupied so there is plenty of space. I have crates of different sizes of your dog prefers to be crated for any length of time. One of my dogs is crated when not home the other 2 are free to roam the house and very well behaved.
“Meganne was kindly able to book my puppy last minute. She sent photos and videos of him with her family throughout the time frame. If time and proximity allows it, I will book with her 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!!”

“Sean and his family provided a perfect home away from home for our two poodles. He was very responsive and gave updates and pictures. I recommend booking with him and will be returning for future sitting needs!”

“Baylyn took great care of my large 11 year old dog. He settled into her space nicely and she took great care of him. Good communication throughout the stay and very accommodating of needs and concerns. Will use again!”

“Allison and Michael were great watching my anxious dog. They took him for walks, played with him, gave him his medicine and provided updates with photos. It usually takes him time to warm up to new people but he seemed comfortable there and looked like he had a good time at his stay!”
“10/10 would recommend Heidi! My dog did amazing with her and her son and I was definitely worried he wouldn’t. Sent fun updates and I knew my dog was in great hands! She is so kind and friendly!”
