About: My dogs have always been very high needs growing up, so I have a lot of experience working with different diets, medications, and needs. I'm an athlete, so I can take them out for long periods of time to get exercise as needed, which can be really helpful for hyperactive dogs who have to be cooped up during the day. I'm also entirely capable of caring for senior dogs, I can take things at their pace and make sure they're comfortable and happy. I am currently a full time college student, but I have a lot of open time either between classes or after them. I commute to the Twin Cities from the suburbs, so I can easily travel wherever I am needed to be able to check in on or take care of your furry friends. Being in the cities with my own car I can take dogs out for walks around the lakes or down some of the trails nearby so they (and I) can get some proper exercise before my classes. When caring for pets, I always make sure they are getting plenty of time to move around, especially if I'm just dropping in to check on them, but regardless of the need. I like to keep a checklist of what I need to get done, as well as just having a bit of time to play with or pet them. I can take pets out for walks on foot or with my roller skates, which lets me go longer distances with them. I make sure to clean up any messes I might make, putting everything back as I found it and keeping things nice and tidy for when you get home again. I'm confident staying in new places, and can make sure everything stays safe in your home or space during my time there.
About: Every single person says they have the best dog ever. And every single person is right. I have been a dog lover my entire life and have been fostering them for years. My soul dog crossed the rainbow bridge a couple years ago and I’m doing Rover to get my puppy kisses until I’m ready to rescue another. Reactive dogs are welcomed as I’m experienced with all dog behavior during my time fostering pitbulls: reactive, timid, shy, etc. Key points: -dog, kid, and cat free home. It’s just me and it’s quiet and cozy with no traffic coming in and out. -I only board one family’s dog(s) at a time. -My priorities are your dog’s safety, comfort, and your peace of mind. We can talk more about my safety protocols during our meet and greet. -I work from home and will be there the whole time unless I have to go walk a dog. I will always let you know ahead of a boarding if I have walks scheduled and how long I’ll be gone for. I provide very detailed updates and photos especially within the first 30-60 minutes of a boarding to let you know how your pup is settling in. If you’re booking walks, daycare, or drop ins, those get detailed reports and photos, too. I provide 2-3 walks a day for boarding dogs based on their exercise level and let them out for numerous other potty breaks, too. After they’ve gotten their energy out they’re free to relax on my big couch with lots of blankets. They’re free to sleep in my bed, too. My goal is to always give you and your dog a “JW Marriott” experience when booking with me. There are very few people I trusted with my dog and it’s a privilege to be that person for you. My schedule is flexible and I’m home majority of the time. When your dogs are in my care, I will be home the entire time unless we have discussed any periods I will be gone and for how long. My yard is not fenced but we go on a lot of walks for exercise. My dog was not crated but I will respect however you want me to care for your dog including crating. We have LOTS of dog beds and blankets here and it’s very cozy!
About: Hi! My name is Ashlie, I live in Brooklyn Park, MN. I live right across from the Coon Rapids Dam, so there are miles of walking trails right outside my door and a brand new dog park just a block away. I have dog sat often for a variety of dogs for about ten years now. I have a 12 year old westie named Merlin. We love hiking and going to dog parks and breweries together. He’s a very social dog and used to being around other dogs. If you need a dog sitter, I can take your dog on several walks and to various parks each day, they will come home tired and happy! Your dog is welcome to stay in my home or we can stay in your home if preferred. I can't wait to meet your furry friend!! Thank you for considering me! Currently I have a lot of availability. Please message me with the dates you need a sitter. I am currently available all week and during spring break. Please let me know if you’re comfortable with me bringing my dog to your house. He does well with other pets and mostly keeps to himself.
“Peggy went above and beyond on taking care of my new 2 month old puppy, Coco. Coco is very needy and needs extra attentionand Peggy was able to use her experience as a dog owner to help with Coco. She also was willing to go and pick up the keys from work which I appreciated a lot as I live in an apartment. I will definitely recommend her! She’s super nice!”

About: Hi! I’m Cheyenne, and I’d love the opportunity to care for your pets while you’re away. I’ve spent several years working in veterinary medicine, where I’ve cared for animals of all ages, breeds, and personalities. My experience has taught me how to recognize changes in behavior, administer medications when needed, and help pets feel comfortable and safe, even in unfamiliar situations. Pet care naturally fits into my weekly routine because caring for animals is already what I do every day. I work full-time in veterinary medicine, so my schedule revolves around the health and well-being of pets. Through Rover, I’m excited to spend even more time doing what I love by providing personalized care outside of the clinic. I’m available for visits on select workdays, especially before or after my shifts, and I have much greater flexibility on my days off. I’m available for visits on select workdays, especially before or after my shifts, and I have much greater flexibility on my days off for walks, drop-in visits, and extended care. I understand how important consistency is for pets, and I do my best to provide reliable, compassionate care that fits seamlessly into their routine while giving you peace of mind.
About: My family has a lot of dogs so I’ve had experience caring for a variety of different breeds of them, all ranging in sizes/age! I love animals a lot and would love the opportunity to meet and form a connection with your pet! I currently work part-time so I have my weekdays free in the mornings/afternoons as well as pretty open availability on the weekends. I will continuously update my schedule to reflect availability! I don’t offer services in my own home but when I go to a client’s home, I’m respectful of the space and will listen to any instructions you give regarding your pet and home as I am there to do my job!
“I was able to relax and enjoy my vacation knowing that Jennifer was there to take care of my boyz. She was punctual even though she didn’t need to be and sent me lots of pics which set my mind at ease. She even brought in a package for me so it wouldn’t get stolen. Super easy to work with. Will definitely be asking for her help again! Thanks Jennifer :)”

About: Hi, I’m Amelia — lifelong animal lover, professional cuddler, enthusiastic dog-walker, and firm believer that every pet deserves to be treated like the VIP they are. 🐾 Whether your pup wants to run around the park until their tongue is on the ground, your kitty prefers a quiet afternoon of cuddles, or your pet’s idea of fun is simply having someone around to keep them company, I’m here for it! I love animals of all shapes, sizes, personalities, and levels of chaos. I’ll happily match their energy — from adventure buddy to couch companion — and make sure they get plenty of attention, affection, exercise, and treats (where permitted, of course!). Your pets are family, and I’ll care for them like they’re my own. I'm always outdoors and I love exploring new parks. I have a flexible work schedule and I'm always up early.

First and foremost, I respect your rules in terms of indoor, outdoor or outside time. I always clean up after your pets, whether it's outside or in the litter box. I make sure their water is always fresh and any stray food is cleaned up. I love to brush and snuggle, making sure your pet is getting the attention they need, especially when they're human is away.
“Marla was so good with Blueberry! I was quite anxious using Rover for the first time, but after the meet and greet, I knew Marla would be a great fit. Her communication was excellent, which eased my anxiety while I was away. She even left a sweet card for me to find when I arrived home. I would highly recommend Marla for any pet sitting jobs - I'll be booking her for the next time I'm away, no question! :)”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Anoka
Danielle comes three days a week to let out my reactive 80lb lab and my 40lb labx. Both are high maintenance for their own reasons. During the initial visit, both pups were calmer than I had ever seen them with a new person. Each day Danielle visits, the pups are calmer when I get home; the neighbors say they bark less during the day; and Danielle listens and shares information. Because of her, we are now enjoying a sniff spot that is perfect for us. Danielle is one in a million!! We have asked her to continue to visit forever :)

Alisha is great with our dog, he needs meds at a specific time and she was able to accommodate. The photos and message from the visit are very detailed. She makes sure your pet gets the attention they need while she comes to visit. Booking with her again if I need it!

Katie was absolutely amazing!!! We reached out to her last minute to help us over the holiday and she was able to accommodate very last minute. She was super sweet at our visit and communicated throughout the entire booking, extremely helpful and kind. We will definitely be working with her again in the future!!!

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Anoka choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 .
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.
All bookings are backed by the , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
