Dog Boarding in Forest Lake

“They were fantastic! They sent me pictures every day. I will definitely book with them again!!!”

“Jackie was so great! Our dog, Josie, stayed with her and her family for two nights. Her two dogs played well with her as well as her sweet kids. She gave timely updates and sent photos to assure us everything was going well. Josie had a wonderful time and I’d highly recommend Jackie!”

“Lisa took excellent care of my puppers! She was a godsend since my other sitter had to cancel a few days before my trip due to a family emergency. It was also my first time using Rover for booking both sitters - so it was a little stressful for me! But Lisa was great and I was able to enjoy my trip knowing my dog was being well taken care of. Thank you soo much!!”

“Julie was my neighbor when we first got our Pomeranian puppy, Miles. My husband and I both worked full-time and my kids were in school all day. Julie would come and get Miles and bring him to her house; she let him play in the yard with her Saint Bernard, Sadie, to get his energy out (so cute- they loved each other). Julie and her daughter would snuggle with Miles at naptime. I don't know how I could have cared for Miles as a puppy without her support. Julie and Miles are bonded for life! He gets so excited every time he sees her, no matter how much time has passed in between visits. She is definitely his second "dog mom." She still is my first ask to take care of Miles if he can't be with us. She loves all animals, especially dogs. I would recommend Julie to watch any of my pets!”

“Ronda was great taking care of our precious Layla. She provides a great loving environment which makes it a lot easier to leave our dog with no worries. She sent 5 pictures in the 7 day vacation span we were so grateful for the updates. We would highly recommend Ronda and will use her again for Layla’s care in the future.”

“On very short notice, my husband & I found ourselves invited to a MN Gophers football game and pregame party. We didn't want to leave our girl alone for that long. I called Anna and she was very accommodating. I was very impressed with her online bio and more so when we met her. Although Obi was with her for only half a day, I knew she was in good hands. Obi and Anna's dog Rufus got along well and she was exhausted from playing when we came to pick her up. Anna also had a fenced in yard which made me feel more comfortable. When in Minneapolis, we will call Anna and canine comforts. Thanks Anna.....woof!!!”

“Nicole was ready and willing to do anything Toby required. She wasn’t put off by some of the possible naughty things he might do (which he didn’t anyway). She allowed him to pick his sleeping spot and monitored his eating. She sent pictures and a summary of the day every day! I could tell he was not only well taken care of but included in all the family activities as well. We are more than satisfied with the care he received!”

“Our Leia had a wonderful time when she was being dog sat for the whole week! Ashley and family did a great job in keeping us up to date about what Leia was doing and how she was adjusting to her new surroundings. Daily walks were had, playtime and of course snuggles. I would highly recommend this family to watch your furry friend and we will definitely be asking them next time we head out of town!”

“Tiffany was awesome! She kept us updated with pictures of our pup Mishka who was - on her own mini vacation at Tiffany's! She came home happy and healthy. Can highly recommend Tiffany and plan on having Mishka vacation there again! ; )”

“Michelle was absolutely wonderful! We had never left our pup for that long before, but when we saw Michelle interacting with her, when knew she was in good hands. Tons of picture updates throughout her stay, and our puppy came back happy but tired. She had plenty of room to run around outside and seemed to enjoy her own spot on the couch. Excellent host all around!”

“Rosie loved her time with Patricia and Patrick. She decided Patrick was her special person and followed him everywhere. She was so loved and well taken care of! Patricia and Patrick are such lovely people!”

“This was our first time using Rover and we couldn’t be more pleased. Aaron was fantastic with our GSP. Aero was comfortable immediately with their dog, the big yard and the stress free set up. I really like the fact that there was only 1 other dog there and Aaron definitely understood GSP characteristics. We are so happy with this situation we will definitely use them again. Thank you.”

“Melissa and her family took such good care of our pups! Our 9mnth old GS had never been away from us since we adopted her and we were nervous how she would behave. Melissa kept us updated and with their kindness told us Iris was doing great and coming out of her shell. We would highly recommend her and her family and will ask them again if/when we need to go out of town! Thank you Melissa and family!!!!”

“I loved the pictures and updates I received while traveling. It was so good to know Summit was being well taken care of and was getting lots of energy out. Thank you so much Shelby!”

“Once again Shelly has been a blessing in mine and my little dogs lives! I always know my little guy is being very well taken care of. Thank you Shelly!”

“Victoria was patient and loving with my very energetic and rambunctious 4 month old puppy. She’s got a calm and easy going manner. I wasn’t sure she’s want to take him again after his first time boarding with her since he’s so much to handle at his age, but she said he’s welcome and she will continue to take him in the future. Her sweet dogs must be very patient too, because this puppy has a lot of energy! I think he missed them He seemed a little sad when he left! Hoping to keep working with Victoria n the future.”

“Miranda and her family welcomed Whiskey into their home like he was their own! Whiskey had been coming home sick when he was boarded in the past from anxiety so we needed a change. He was comfortable at Miranda’s house and loved playing with the other dogs.”

“Kayla was great! Very easy to work with and excellent communication from start to finish. We did a short meet & greet before boarding our dog with her as this was our first time boarding him in someone else’s home, and so that he could meet her pup. I would recommend her to anyone, and hope to board with her in the future!”

“This was our first time using Rover. We picked Deborah because of her profile information and location to us.. This was a great experience! It's hard to leave your pet! But it helps a lot when you know they are in caring hands! Quinn might have been a task for her! But we would use her again in a heartbeat if she is willing to deal with Quinn's energy level again!! :)”
