“This was our first time using Rover and we have had a great experience with Hannah. She took the time to meet us and our fur babies before booking.

About: I have experience in wild, domestic, and farm animals! I have a huge passion for these beautiful critters and love giving them the best care. Im a new SAHM, so being able to get out of the house is a real treat. If I do have to stay over night, I will have to bring my son with me:) My personal animals have a daily routine and their own bedroom. With clients though I make sure they give me a list of directions so I do not miss any specifics.

About: i am just a dog lover and ever since mine passed while i was away in college, i miss my puppy time! i am ready to give your doggos whatever they need, whatever age or size. i leave for college august 24th, im so sorry i wont be available in minnesota after that date i work very very part time for short hours, as i am just home for the summer from college, so i can be available whenever needed! if your puppy needs constant care, i also am living at home with a mom and dad who love animals as much as i do our yard is not fenced in completely, as it is a big yard, so id love to keep your dog safe on a leash. i have a medium sized dog crate if that is needed for sleep, and ive got a big home with lots of play space and friendly family faces.


19. Zackery S.
About: I’ve had pets growing up and have had a love for caring for them. Making sure your pet uses the bathroom or goes on a walk is easy but having someone you can trust and you know who cares can be tough that’s what i’m here for! I’m a pool cleaner but in the winter time i have lots of extra time so if you have any pet needs please reach out! I have a nice open home with a large backyard. I also service people pools so i’m not new to being at peoples homes and seeing their pets!


20. Peyton B.
About: I have always been an animal lover. I have had big and small dogs since I was a kid. Pet sitting as a kid in my neighborhood was probably one of my first jobs I ever had! I love animals and think they deserve to be treated well. I love to actually spend time with them and won't just let them out and leave. They have a special spot in my heart and I'd love to be helpful to you and your pets, whether big or small, old or young. I am in nursing school currently and so I am normally pretty occupied with school and homework, but always find myself especially free on the weekends. I do have time throughout the week, it just depends on the day and time of the school year. I have my own dog I care for to so pet care is something I am always doing. I am just a busy student trying to make a little cash on the side when I have some time. Playing with and caring for animals is a good way for me to take a mental break from everything I have going on too! I am happy to follow any instructions to care for your pet. Whatever your routine for your pet normally is, I am happy to try and follow the norm and care for them as if it was you there. Crating, fenced in play time, door locking, whatever you need from me I am happy to do. I can make sure there's food and water, give treats, play inside or outside, go for a walk, whatever they need.
