“Kelly did a great job watching my two toy Aussie’s! The dogs immediately got comfortable with Kelly and her two beautiful greyhounds. They loved the large fenced in grass yard— they were in dog heaven! Kelly sent photos and kept me posted on how my pups were doing. I so appreciated the updates since Kelly graciously took them at the last minute (due to a funeral in the family). I will definitely contact Kelly again— thank you!”
“Dee was the perfect caregiver for our pet. She treated our dog like family. She sent daily pictures and updates, they went on walks and enjoyed visits and attention from Dee's family members. Would definitely recommend and would book again.”
“Another great visit with Lan for my Labradoodle, Buddy. As always, she was great, taking special care of my little guy while I was away for nearly three weeks. Really appreciated her flexibility when we needed to adjust our return date. It was so good to know he was in good hands and having so much fun playing with her dog, Lucy.”
“We love to bring our pup to Steven & Diane. They are flexible to work with send pictures of how happy he is. They send him home tired which is no easy task. Thanks again guys!”
“Lisa was incredibly communicative and took great care of our dog. We were on vacation for two weeks and she sent updates and photos all through our trip so we had zero concerns while we were away. We highly recommend Lisa and would use her again in a heartbeat.”
“My pup Nala had an amazing time with Liss. She shared pictures daily? was very communicative and prompt with her responses. She was also very accommodative with our last-minute travel changes.”
“Leo seems to have had a wonderful time. His behavior this evening is as if he just had a normal active day. Clearly he was comfortable enough to have cuddled up next to you. And he always enjoys a good walk.”
“We feel very comfortable leaving Winnie with Peg and Greg. They consistently provide loving care for our dog while we are away. Great communication and specific needs are always addressed!”
“Our “little man” had such a great time here. I totally loved the communication everyday on his well being and care. We love that you loved him like your own A and T!”
“Our 8 year old Shitzu dog stayed with Denise and Michael for a full month! He had an amazing time and looked super happy and healthy! They did an excellent job caring for him, kept us updated and gave us the peace of mind to enjoy our vacation time as well. Thank you Denise & Michael, we really appreciate it!!!”
“We would highly recommend Eileen as a dog watcher/over night visits at her home. This isn’t our first or last time having her watch my little girl while I need led to go out of town. Eileen is thoughtful in pictures and videos and explaining something that happened each day. It is our pleasure to work and know Eileen.”
“Jennifer was an awesome caretaker for our pup when we were gone for 5 days. Her home and resident pups welcomed our dog in right away. Jennifer is highly responsive and provided updates throughout the stay. Her yard is secluded and away from the road - perfect for our car-reactive dog. We plan on using her again in the future.”
“River is the best! She takes such good care of our crazy dogs. She has cared for our dogs multiple times and we’re so happy to bring them to her for the best care. Highly recommended!”
“Aimee and Robert were great with a last minute booking for our nervous girl. In the middle of moving it was so nice to know Ruby was taken care of. She came home relaxed and happy.”
“Maria was a great dog sitter for Sawyer and we’d definitely recommend her! We haven’t used Rover much before, and she made us feel really comfortable with how responsive she was and how much effort she put into sending us picture updates throughout the weekend. Sawyer came home tired and happy, so we know he got lots of love and attention while we were gone! 😊”
“Wesley was absolutely wonderful with my dog, Frankie. From the moment I dropped him off, it was evident that Frankie was treated like family and genuinely well cared for. Wesley and his parents have a beautiful home with a secure, fenced-in yard, which made us feel incredibly comfortable. We were able to travel out of the country with complete peace of mind knowing my dog was safe, happy, and truly prioritized. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would highly recommend Wesley to anyone looking for exceptional care. I received photos and updates. We look forward to planning our next adventure and rebooking with Wesley!”
“My dog Charlie had a great time with Doc and Heather. They provided daily updates about how he was doing with pictures included. I was able to enjoy my trip knowing Charlie was in good hands. He must have had a good time because he came back happy and tired.”
“My cockapoo, Buffy, has separation anxiety. I wanted to find a better option to boarding her other than a kennel. I was nervous about leaving her with someone neither of us knew. Buffy and I had a meet and greet with Shelley prior to the scheduled overnight stay. I immediately felt comfortable taking with Shelley about my concerns. Shelley answered my long list of questions with patience and grace. Buffy's recent overnight stay went extremely well. Shelley sent updates and pictures during the stay. I feel I have found Buffy a home away from home. Buffy will have someone that will be there for her around the clock when I can't be. Which means less stress for both of us. Thank you Shelley.”
“Great care. Krista always keeps us updated on the day to day activities with short texts and several photos a day. Great choice for care if your dog enjoys company and playtime with other dogs as well!”

“Patricia was excellent with my cat! Bucky ran right up to her and was very comfortable with her, judging by the pictures! She played with Bucky, gave her lots of pets, and followed all instructions. I would book Patricia again in the future.”
“We arranged drop in visits for our two cats over the holidays. It was our first time using Rover and we would highly recommend Keith! He kept us informed with texts and pictures, and did everything we asked of him. We will definitely request Keith again!”
“Ed really goes the extra mile, not only for the pets for whom he is caring, but also with keeping their “parents” entertained with stories, puzzles, and humor. We look forward to each time he sits for us!”
“Haley continues to be the absolute best when it comes to caring for our two cats! She is very accommodating and flexible with her schedule. She also makes sure to give the cats some quality attention and play time, thank you so much Haley!”
“This is the second time Mary has house sat and watched my cat and each time she sends me multiple pictures a day and many updates throughout the day, follows my instructions on when she can go outside, what to feed her and when to clean her water fountain perfectly! I highly recommend this lady and just booked with her for the third time for an upcoming trip! I was very cautious in the beginning about booking someone to stay at my house and to watch over my precious baby Iris Kat and I no longer worry because of Mary’s skills! I can tell by my cats eyes and body language that she really enjoys having Mary as company while her parents are gone. My cat is a particular judge of character when it comes to people. If people have a bad aura, are disrespectful or is a bad person she won’t be mean but she won’t get close to them will give them major side eye and sas. With that being said Iris enjoys cuddling with her and following her around!”
“Amy has watched my cat twice now, and both times went great. She is incredibly thorough and makes sure to send plenty of photos and notes. I feel comforted knowing my cat is in good hands with Amy.”
“Ben has watched our cats three or four times at this point. Whenever we go out of town, I immediately check to see if he is available because of his attention to detail and kind demeanor. Thank you as always for taking care of our boys!”
“Claire was great! She visited my kitties daily and kept me informed with notes and pictures, even though I was out of the country. I really appreciated the updates! This was my first Rover experience, and I was so happy with Claire’s care for my girls while I was gone. I know Sasha and Dee Dee were well cared for and I hope to use Claire again during my next vacation!”
“Brooke took WONDERFUL care of my Roo! She is an excellent, considerate communicator, sending detailed updates of Roo’s activities. Roo was happy and relaxed when I returned. THANK YOU, BROOKE!!!”
“Stephanie was so wonderful with our two kitties! She gave them the attention they each wanted (one likes more than the other), made them their special wet food & spoiled them with treats while we were away. She is so kind & patient…don’t hesitate to book her for your fur babies!”
“Our cats adore Ann! 🥰 Was comforting to have her staying with our cats and our house while we were away. The house cleaners accidentally locked one of cats in a room and Ann found her after noticing she didn’t greet her at the door. 😅”
“Lucy was wonderful and did a fabulous job pet-sitting our cat Miracle! This was our first time using a pet-sitting service and we were a little nervous about it. A family member recommended Rover and once we had our Meet & Greet with Lucy, we were so relieved. She was so nice, reassuring and helpful. We really loved the visit updates and photos while we were away, and so grateful for the extra tasks she helped with also. We think Miracle was as happy to have her as we were, and we would definitely rebook with her. We highly recommend Lucy!”
“Anna did an amazing job with our two cats, especially our diabetic cat who needs insulin twice daily and potassium. She’s very responsive and communicates well after each visit.”
“We love Natalie’s attention to detail and concern about our cats. They’re quirky and she “gets” them. We’re so comfortable leaving them with Natalie, her care gives us such peace of mind ♥️♥️♥️”
“Anika was sweet and responsive, our cats loved her. She sent many pictures while we were away. We came home to a pristine house with the sheets in the dryer, and very happy cats. Would not hesitate to book her again.”

“So great to give my dogs an awesome play date with a pack! Jen definitely knows dogs and manages a crew well. So grateful for the flexibility. Easy to work with and I got great pictures throughout the day. 💗”
“Steven & Diane are true dog people. They had not seen my dog Alice for almost a year yet she fell right in againwith their beautiful pack of dogs. So grateful!”
“My fearful dog has become comfortable very quickly with Emily. She doesn’t usually like strangers but Emily understands and doesn’t try to push her. I’m glad we found a good match for day care.”
About: I work from home full time and have the capability and desire to have a cuddly fur baby around, snuggles, walks and lots of love a must. I like watching 1 dog at a time but if they are from the same family, please feel free to reach out if there are 2. I am able to be flexible. Since I work from home full time I am available to watch your fur baby during the day, night, boarding and on weekends if needed I would take them on walks when I could during the day, snuggles, some play time and rest when needed. Plenty of food and water, no fenced in back yard.
“McKenzie is the best thing that’s ever happened for my reactive pup. He is able to go play with other dogs and flourish in her care. She is also skilled with medically needy pups and flexible with her scheduling. The absolute best.”
“Ivy loves going to Krista and the boys! She gets super excited every time and comes home all tuckered out. Krista is great at communicating and asking questions when needed.”
“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!”
“Thank you so much to River for watching my 8 month old puppy Griffin. I felt completely comfortable leaving my fur baby in her care, and he came home tired and happy. I’ll definitely be looking to book River for doggy daycare in the future.”
“As always, my dog had an amazing time with Kara and Adam! They are so sweet and she always is exhausted when she gets back to me. Her kids are so kind to Jovi and I always look forward to seeing all the pictures Kara and Adam take! Thanks again!”
“Ann has been an absolute dream dog sitter. I know my dog is in excellent hands and I bring him every week. I recommend Ann to anyone, even those like me that is extraordinarily particular about who watches my dog.”
“Lori was awesome! Will definitely plan on using her again. The location was perfect. And she was very warm and inviting 🤗 was super nice that she sent me a picture and let me know how Buzz was doing! 😍”
About: Hi! I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and have extensive hands-on experience caring for them. Over the years, I’ve cared for multiple dogs through pet sitting, including looking after my mother’s 14-year-old senior dog for two weeks while she was traveling. These experiences have given me strong confidence in handling dogs of different ages, temperaments, and care needs. I currently accept only one dog at a time so I can provide my full attention and ensure a calm, safe, and comfortable environment. I understand that every dog has unique routines and preferences, and I carefully follow each owner’s detailed instructions to make sure their pet feels secure and well cared for. I treat every dog as if they were my own, focusing on attentive, patient, and loving care. My goal is to create a stress-free experience for both you and your dog. During the holiday season, I’ll have a flexible schedule and plenty of time at home. My family enjoys spending quiet days together, so pet care easily fits into our routine. We’ll make sure each pet gets regular walks, playtime, and affection throughout the day. Boarding at my home: My family will spend most of our time at home, so your pet will enjoy calm company in a quiet and cozy environment. We provide clean spaces, regular outdoor breaks, and lots of affection to help them feel like part of the family.
“I adopted my first dog and reached out to Shayla soon after. She responded quickly and I felt very comfortable bringing Gabi to her. Gabi had fun and they took great care of her. They also responded to my constant messages throughout the day checking in on her. I continue to use her for doggy daycare.”
“Coco spent her first day with Sonja, Adam & their pups. I felt completely comfortable leaving her with them. They are personable, warm, & kind. They are clearly, comfortable & knowledgeable about dogs. Coco made herself at home within the first five minutes she was in their home, and had not a care when I left. She clearly had a blast playing with everyone. The pictures tell a story of a happy, relaxed dog who had a boat load of fun, & went home tired. Thank you Sonja & Adam.”
“Lydia does an amazing job caring for our puppy! We started bringing Riley to Lydia when she was about 10 weeks old for the couple of days a week we needed to work outside of the house. Riley always came home happy and worn out. She got plenty of fun, playtime, and naps throughout the day and Lydia sends lots of pictures so you can see how your pup is doing!”
“Chelsie was amazing with our dog, Frankie! He’s nervous with new people, so she let him tag along behind her and nap nearby, and her kids were very soothing and gentle with him. She also sent 3 photos throughout the day. I would absolutely book her again! Thanks, Chelsie!”
“My dog Louie had the best day at Emily’s!! Emily works from home and keeps Louie active during the day. He loved playing with her dogs and the long walk he got! Louie will definitely be back!!”

“This is our 2nd time using Ann. She has excellent communication. The animals adore her. Ann is fabulous with Paisley. It is cute to see Paisley get so excited to see her friend Ann. I highly recommend Ann's services!!! We used her for drop in visits. Ann explained the different types of services she has available clearly so expectations were clear. We've already booked time again with her. Thank you so much for caring about our babies.”
“Nina was awesome walking Lucy! Lucy loved her and got great exercise with Nina! Nina communicated amazing with us sending pictures and giving us an update after each walk. Lucy can’t wait to see her again!”
About: I've been a pet owner since I was a child. In our 40+ year marriage, my wife and I have owned two Maltese, two Shelties, and two Shih Tzus. Each pair simultaneously. Intermittently during the last four decades, we have also owned cats. In addition, I took care of our daughter's Labrador mix for a year while she studied in Europe. And now, I fly to Austin, Texas when she vacations to care for her Great Pyrenees, a Chihuahua mix, and a cat. I currently manage the remnants of a company I founded from my basement office. My work typically occupies less than an hour daily and can be done outside regular business hours, so my pet care schedule is very flexible. I regularly walk our Shih Tzus around the neighborhood and, weather permitting, take them to a nearby dog park. I also play Fetch with them in the house and give them daily massages. I usually take one of the dogs with me when I run errands in the car.
“Kiirsten was absolutely amazing with our process! She was kind, attentive, and made sure she got plenty of exercise and love. We received updates and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. Highly recommend and will definitely book again!”
About: I’ve taken care of a wide range of animals my entire life. Pets will be happy and safe in my care! I enjoy taking care of all animals - especially dogs and cats! I work from home and can make my schedule very flexible! Thursdays are my day in office, but I am home early afternoons. I am home on the weekends as well, so I would have plenty of time to take care of pets! I live in an apartment, my cat stays indoors and I take my pup for walks very often! I would be able to travel to your house / space and care for your animals.
About: Family of 4 animal lovers! We’ve had pets our entire lives and for the past year have been helping with dog fostering. Our two daughters love to help so your pet will receive plenty of attention, love, and playtime in our fully fenced backyard! I work from home so your pet will rarely be alone and will have plenty of companionship throughout the day. Pets are family here and are welcome to any furniture during their stay. We’d love to care for yours like one of our own! Our backyard is quite spacious and fully fenced in. If you’d like, we can definitely take your dog for a walk as our neighborhood is in a quiet suburb of Prior Lake without through traffic (our kids bike around with no fear). We also have two friendly cats who mostly keep to themselves (or cuddle with each other!) and will happily give your dog space.
About: i have several years of experience with both dogs and cats. I grew up on a farm and still live on one. Animals are my passion. I have trained a few of my personal dogs the basics and would love to spend more time with more animals. I drive school bus in the mornings monday - friday and host open houses on the weekends. i am very flexible during the day and evenings I take great pride in having the best care for the animals i look after. I always take care of every animal like my own. they are family not pets in my house.

I like watching 1 dog at a time but if they are from the same family, please feel free to reach out if there are 2. I am able to be flexible.

Plenty of food and water, no fenced in back yard.
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. I’ve also rescued dogs and helped care for friends’ pups, so I understand how important it is to know your dog is safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I’m a very active person and love taking dogs on long walks and making sure they get plenty of exercise, fresh air, and all the good smells along the way. I work from home, which gives me flexibility and availability throughout the day, and I truly enjoy having dogs in my home and making them feel comfortable. I’m professional, responsible, loving, and attentive, and I take pet care seriously. I recently lost my own dog, and caring for other people’s dogs feels like a meaningful way to share that love and fill that space in my heart. I’m excited for the opportunity to help give pet parents peace of mind so they can enjoy their time away, knowing their pups are happy, healthy, and in good hands. I work from home, so pet care fits naturally into my day. I’m able to give dogs attention throughout the day and easily carve out time for walks, potty breaks, play, and check-ins—morning, midday, and evening. I also make activity a priority, so getting pups out for fresh air (and plenty of sniff time!) is always part of the routine. Most importantly, I’m happy to follow your dog’s usual schedule and preferences so they have a consistent experience that feels familiar—mealtimes, walk frequency, crate/free-roam routines, medications, and any special instructions. My goal is for your dog to feel comfortable, cared for, and right at home while you’re away. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in yours, my top priority is always making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I take the time to learn each dog’s routine, personality, and needs so I can provide care that feels familiar and consistent. I focus on creating a calm, caring environment with plenty of attention, activity, and affection, while also keeping safety and well-being front and center at all times. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, so I also make communication a priority. I provide frequent updates, photos, and check-ins so you can feel confident, relaxed, and stress-free while you’re away. My goal is simple: happy dogs and peace of mind for their people.
“Rob was filling in while our other dog walker was on vacation for two weeks. I highly recommend Rob! He’s like a dog whisperer :-). Very intuitive, patient, flexible, timely, and an excellent communicator. Charlotte enjoyed her walks with him. He truly will be missed.”
“My dog Charlie is 50 pounds of energy very difficult to walk. I've only had her for about 4 months. She pulls and lunges towards other dogs and anything else with four legs. Lauren has handled Charlie very well and has been flexible with my changing schedule. I highly recommend Lauren. I trust her with my Charlie.”
“Haley and her partner did a great job of taking care of Percy! She was happy to see them on her visits. She was well rested and had good energy when we returned home?”

“Nova had another great stay with Julie and Ben. Once again, we received lots of pictures, where it was clear that Nova was content and happy... playing with her toys and with the kids, going on walks and getting snuggles. Nova enjoyed spending lots of time laying in the fenced backyard enjoying some sunshine. Nova's stay was for 9 nights and Julie let me know that they didn't think they had enough food for the last day. My bad. They generously offered to go shop for some more food, which was greatly appreciated.”
“Kyle took such good care of my baby Reba! Kyle had high communication with me regarding an ear infection that my pup was struggling with and even took her to the vet when she needed to be seen.

“Nicole & David were amazing!!!! They took such good care of our newly rescued dog for two weeks. They are well equipped and knowlagable when it comes to integrating dogs into their home. They are exceptional with communication and sent daily photos, videos, and updates. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a loving dog sitter and will absolutely work with them again!”
“Mary is absolutely the BEST! Our family is SO thankful that we found such a caring person to watch Teddy while we are away! She sends daily pictures, gets Teddy outside and on walks, and we know Teddy is having so much fun with her dog Izzy! We truly could not ask for a better dog sitter! We plan on booking with her again and again! Thank you Mary!!!🩷”
“Leslie was the best. We found her last minute after our dog sitter cancelled. She treated our dog like one of their own. So flexible, sent me great pics throughout the week. My dog was so well cared for and so loved. Highly recommend!”
