“Amazing Care for Our High-Energy Doodle Puppy! We couldn't have been happier with the care Jeremiah provided for our energetic doodle puppy during his three-day stay. Finding someone who can handle a young, high-energy dog is crucial, and Jeremiah exceeded all our expectations. Their home is incredibly clean and nice, and the fenced backyard was perfect for our puppy to burn off steam safely. It was a huge bonus that they have their own sweet doodle—our guy had an absolute blast making a new friend and getting constant companionship! Communication was prompt and reassuring. We received updates and very cute pictures via text throughout the stay, which made us feel completely at ease. They took him on multiple walks and ensured he received excellent care and attention the entire time. Overall, our puppy truly enjoyed his stay, and we are totally satisfied. We will absolutely be repeat customers and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a loving, responsible, and fun home for their dog!”
“Emily was absolutely amazing with our dog, Roxie! She was very upfront in warning us that her dog, Elliot, can come on a little strong at first (which he definitely did lol) but he and Roxie became best friends almost immediately after. Emily sent tons of pictures and videos throughout the stay, which made us feel so comfortable knowing Roxie was happy and having fun. It was obvious from every update how much Roxie loved her. We would absolutely trust Emily with Roxie again and highly recommend her!”
“We enjoyed our experience with Sandy who cared for our energetic 9 month old puppy. Our puppy got plenty of play time with her dogs. I appreciated the updates she shared of how things were going and the pictures.”
“We had a wonderful experience with Kimberly & John! Great communication and we loved all the pictures of Oakley having fun while we were gone. He seemed to fit right in and was so well loved. We'll be booking again!”
“Liz and her family were so great! She provided great updates and assured us Theo was doing great and enjoying his time with them. We will definitely be booking with them again!”
“Our dog Ellie had a great time staying with Kay. She kept us well informed of what Ellie was up to and gave her lots of attention and time outside. We got some nice pictures and videos during the stay. Thank you and we hope to have Ellie back in the future!”
“Kelly and Zac were great! We received daily pupdates with pictures and a blurb about his adventures. They worked with us on a last minute booking and were quick to respond. As a small dog mom, we are always cautious of where our little guy goes for boarding, and this was the perfect set up for him. He had fun playing with their dogs, chasing chipmunks, and helping in the kitchen. Thank you both, from us and Dr. Ducky!”
“Nickolai was extremely responsive, professional, and considerate. My dog loved the large backyard and resident dog, and was well-cared for. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Nickolai again”
“We were so happy with the care Kate gave our dog, Lucy. You can tell she really loves dogs! Lucy spent 3 weeks with her and Kate sent us daily pictures and updates and we always felt like Lucy was being well loved and cared for. We wouldn’t hesitate to use Kate again in the future!”
“Promise took amazing care of our dog for a week. We really appreciated the picture and video updates everyday. We had a delay coming home and she was more than flexible and accommodating. Thank you again, Promise!!”
“Hee Seong took very good care of our dog Mason. We could tell by Hee Seong's daily, pictures and summaries that he was comfortable and cared for every moment of his stay. He was happily spoiled during his stay. I would definitely leave Mason with Hee Seong, again when we travel.”
“Shreya and her family took great care of our dog! He is high energy and anxious and we were grateful for the patience and care they provided! We would forsure have our dog there again and recommend her to anyone!”
“Susan and Craig are clearly animal lovers and have a great calm energy around them! We were so fortunate to find them to have our two boys hang out at their place when we went out of town for work - they had a fantastic time!”
About: What sets me apart is my reliability, patience, and genuine love for animals. I grew up with a cat and later cared for our family German Shorthaired Pointer for many years. I understand that every pet has unique needs, and I’ll follow your care instructions carefully to keep them happy, comfortable, and safe. I’ll treat your pet like family and provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I work primarily from home, which gives me the flexibility to provide plenty of attention, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. I occasionally work from the office on Tuesdays and Thursdays, but my schedule is flexible. Our home is calm, loving, and pet-friendly. My children (ages 10 and 12) are kind, respectful, and love animals. Any interaction they have with your pet is always supervised by me. We offer boarding on weekends and weekday stays of up to one week (Friday through Friday), ensuring your pet receives consistent care, attention, and lots of love. I live in a clean, cozy townhouse with plenty of nearby walking paths and open green spaces for walks, exercise, and fresh air. To ensure every pet has enough room to relax and feel comfortable, I only accept small to medium-sized dogs up to 40 pounds for boarding. I’ll follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special care instructions, so they feel safe, happy, and like at home.
About: Caring for animals has always been more than a job or a hobby for me—it's part of who I am. I truly believe I was put on this earth to love and care for animals, and every pet that enters my home is treated like a member of my family. I was fortunate to have a Cavalier King Charles and a Cavapoo for a total of 17 years combined. They were my entire life and I took them to as many places together and made them a big part of my life. I miss them everyday. When a pet stays with me, I make it my priority to maintain their normal routine as closely as possible. Whether that means walks, playtime, cuddle sessions on the couch, administering medications, or simply providing a calm, loving environment, I pay close attention to each pet's unique personality and needs. I know how important consistency, patience, and affection are, especially when they're away from the people they love most. My goal is for every pet to feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for. I take the trust that owners place in me very seriously, and I care for every dog as if they were my own—with kindness, respect, plenty of love, and lots of belly rubs (if they enjoy them!). I hope that when you return home, your pet is not only happy and well cared for, but has also enjoyed their own little vacation filled with love, attention, and companionship. Pet care naturally fits into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I work from home several days each week, which allows me to provide plenty of companionship, attention, walks, playtime, and potty breaks throughout the day. On the days I go into the office, it's just a short drive from home, so I'm able to come home during lunch to check in, spend time with your pet, and make sure they're comfortable. Honestly, one of my favorite ways to spend my free time is at home with my furry friends. Whether we're going for a walk, playing, relaxing on the couch, or simply enjoying each other's company, I love making pets feel safe, happy, and loved. I also believe every pet is unique. When caring for a new dog, I make it a priority to learn their routine, personality, and preferences. I don't like leaving pets alone for long periods, especially while they're adjusting to a new environment. My goal is to provide a calm, consistent routine so they feel secure and cared for from the moment they arrive until they're reunited with their family. I feel truly honored when someone trusts me with the care of their pet. I know how much our furry family members mean to us, and I want you to feel completely comfortable knowing they will be safe, loved, and well cared for while they are with me. Some people might say I’m a little “over the top” when it comes to pet safety—and I’m okay with that! I believe it’s always better to be prepared and to leave no stone unturned. Whether we’re going outside, playing in the yard, or taking a walk, your pet will always be secure and closely supervised. I carry water with me on walks in case they get extra thirsty, and I keep a whistle with me as an added safety precaution. I also pay close attention to every pet’s individual routine, personality, and special needs. Whether that means hand-feeding a pet who needs a little extra encouragement, helping a senior dog safely get up onto the bed or couch, following specific dietary instructions, or simply giving them extra patience and reassurance, I’m happy to provide the thoughtful care they need. On hot days, I make sure pets have plenty of fresh water, stay cool and comfortable, and avoid spending too much time outside in the heat. Most of all, I want your pet to feel at home. We can go for walks, play, relax, snuggle on the couch, or enjoy a cozy evening watching TV together. I’ll take the time to get to know what makes your pet happy and comfortable because every animal is different—and every one deserves to feel safe, loved, and included. My goal is to give you peace of mind while you’re away and to make sure your pet feels like they are staying with someone who genuinely cares for them as deeply as you do. I will treat your pet as if they were my own and care for them with kindness, patience, attention, and lots of love.

Lisa was amazing with our five year old Goldendoodle. He had a blast with her during his one-week stay and was well cared for and loved. Lisa sent updates and pics daily. It was such a wonderful experience. Couldn’t recommend her more highly. She was a wonderful host.
Abigail was so wonderful and took amazing care of my (high maintenance) little terrier while I was out of town for a week. He got lots of attention and walks, and the clearly bonded. They clearly bonded and he had a great time. She even made a sweet care package for him! I would highly recommend her to anyone.
Sara and her husband were fabulous!! My dog has a lot of anxieties, and Sara made sure we had a couple of meet and greets before leaving him. She has a calming manner that made my dog feel calm and secure. I came home to a happy, and well cared for dog. Thank you!!! She sent pictures and kept us updated.
She is amazing!! If you want your pooch to have extra special care, Highly recommend. Her son also helped and we received several Awesome Photos of our pup while we were away for 8 days.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in MN ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
