“Debbie was fantastic! I was so happy Buttercup had the best boarding experience while we were gone on our trip. She made sure to take down important notes and always kept me updated on how things were going. I felt so comfortable knowing my baby girl was with someone I can trust and was getting daily attention. Thanks again for all you done Debbie and Ron! 🙂”

“Erik and Emily were great. My dog Schultz had a great time with their dogs he was well cared for they have a great backyard with lots of room to run and play. He didn’t have any problems adapting and was very happy. Highly recommend!”

“Haleigh sent lots of pictures and info about Phoebe. She was very patient with our pup's anxiety and food issues. Phoebe was happy and healthy at pickup. Thanks, Haleigh.”

“Can’t say enough thanks to Araceli! Our dog was taken care of very well and she came back home very happy. Araceli shared pictures and stories about our dog all the time during our time away and we felt safe and comfortable that our dog stayed with her. It is our second time boarding with Araceli and she is the best!”

“I have two dogs, one of which has separation anxiety pretty bad. Hannah was able to make them feel safe and comfortable. She sent frequent updates and was flexible and communicative. She was by far the best pet sitter my boys have stayed with.”

“Danielle is a thoughtful and considerate sitter who always keeps me updated on how my dog is doing. Her dog, Macy, got along great with mine, and she consistently responds promptly and sends photos during the stay. She also has a large yard that my dog really enjoyed. I felt comfortable knowing my dog was in good hands and will definitely be using her again. Thanks, Danielle!”

“Kathy was very professional from start to finish. She made sure to send me many updates throughout the stay. I was so surprised, I was able to book last minute Christmas day and do a meet and greet. I will definitely be booking her again!”

“We had such a good first experience with Lajetta. She is a wonderful communicator, sent lots of photos and took great care of our dog. Our dog got along well with the other dogs, and was his normal self when picking him up at the end of the stay. Lajetta is proven to be great with dogs, and a responsible sitter, much appreciated!”

“Our Cavaliers loved staying with Amy. Her home was accommodating, and they seemed very comfortable with the family and her dogs. My dogs immediately made themselves at home and I'm sure would eagerly return!”
“Maryorie took great care of our girl. She sent us lots of updates and pictures. My dog came home happy, seems like she had a great time. Would not hesitate to use Maryorie again in the future.”

“Jennifer was great with my 3 dogs who have never been boarded at someone else’s house and two of them were a little nervous. They came around in no time, had the choice of sleeping with her if they wanted to, lots of room to play, and got along great with her dogs. We’ll definitely be back.”


“Flawless. Leah and Chris did a phenomenal job making me and Gnocchi feel comfortable with the arrangement and she had a great time. She's very high energy and they gave her a lot of playtime and attention. And sent tons of pictures too!”

“Carolyn is an amazing sitter and takes such great care of our dog. We have used her before and will absolutely continue to reach out to her when we need a sitter in the future. She sends lots of pictures and videos, and always seems to make sure our dog is getting plenty of attention and love. Thank you, Carolyn!! Tato already misses you!”


“Annie is our almost 14 year old Jack Russel...she can be a hand full. It was nice to see photos of Annie laying on a quilt on Kristen's lap. We are very happy that Annie did well under Kristen's care. She is going blind and gets scared easy. Staying with Kristen was soIt is so much better than boarding her.. The last 2 times we had house sitters...we were worried...but everything worked out great...Thank you Kristen..”

“We were very impressed with Karilla’s care for Rosie. It was an easy transition during drop off and pickup, and Karilla provided daily updates to make us feel assured that Rosie was doing well. As first-time Rover users, we were satisfied with the level of service we received and would wholeheartedly recommend Karilla to anyone.”
“Amber and her family were awesome. She is definitely a Dog person. Went over and above any of my expectations. I feel very safe leaving any of my pets with her and her family. I will definitely use her again.”

“Brittany is great, I know my pup is well taken care of because he feels right at home when I drop him off. She is my definite first option for a sitter and can’t recommend her enough.”

West Minnehaha dog parents share their Rover experiences
Bruder had a great time with Jay and his family! When I picked him up he was healthy and happy. I also received several pictures and an update about how he was doing which made my anxiety go down a lot about leaving him! Will definitely be going back to them the next time I have to travel :)

Jared was so communicative, sent photos every day, and let me know exactly what was going on for my nervous gal. Birdie was hardly ever alone between Jared and his sweet wife caring for Birdie- which is how it is at our house- so she did really well, and seems calm and content when I picked her up. She also can only eat a prescription diet, and Jared followed instructions and listened to my concerns. I will definitely look to book with Jared again!

Five stars are not enough for Danny and Maria. They watched Jupiter, my cocker spaniel/King Charles over Memorial Weekend. They sent several videos and photos of my Jup, along with Emma (their dog) and Stich (another dog they watch). Oh my goodness Jupiter was having the time of his life. Danny and Maria are such caring people and love our fur babies as if they were theirs. Jupiter is almost 3 years old and an only doggie child, so he felt as though he was on vacation himself. He went for walks with the gang and played hard in the huge backyard. It’s like Doggie Disneyland at Danny and Maria’s. They made sure to ask about any food issues/allergies etc. I totally hit the jackpot finding these amazing people. I would recommend them a thousand times taking care of any fur baby. 👏👍

Deboye was wonderful with Johnny, and we would 100% book with him again. From the start, he took all of our notes and concerns seriously, which gave us so much peace of mind. We could tell Johnny was in great hands and being really well cared for. He was so sweet about meeting Johnny at his own pace and never pushing him too quickly, which helped him settle in comfortably. He picked up on Johnny’s little quirks and routine right away, stayed on top of his meds, and kept him on his normal schedule. We also really appreciated all of the updates and photos throughout the stay — we missed our pup a lot, and it was such a comfort getting those check-ins and knowing he was doing well. Deboye is attentive, responsible, flexible, and genuinely kind. We’re so grateful for the care he gave Johnny and wouldn’t hesitate to book with him again. We’d absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for someone thoughtful and trustworthy to care for their dog.

I cannot express how relieved I am to have found such a wonderful Dog Sitter. My dog can be a little nervous at times, and she was perfectly comfortable for a long stay with Vivian. Vivian sent pictures each day, and I could see how comfortable Blanca was in her care. 100% recommend Vivian, and will be sure to bring Blanca back regularly, as they have formed a great bond. Thank you Vivian, I know Blanca looks forward to seeing you again.

Thank you so much! Marius and Emily are as awesome as ever with Hunter. They check in with me and send lots of pics and videos and really CARE about Hunter. I felt safe leaving her with them and when I picked her up she was so happy and I could tell she had so much fun and didn’t want to leave. Thank you!!
