“This was our first experience using Rover. Thank you for making it so easy. Macy S was the best! She was so polite and conscientious. She sent the cutest pictures of our cats warming up to her and it made us feel relieved they were safe so we could enjoy our time away from them. Overall very positive experience. Would use Rover again.”

About: I am an experienced home sitter with the ability to handle daily needs and emergencies competently, who is at the top of anyone's list when asked who they most associate with animal love and care. I pride myself on connecting with pets on their level while following pet owner requests with exact detail. Don't be shy about asking for your own expectations of what care would look like - all of us have quirks or different ways of treating our pets and most pets have some behavior issues. The only animals that I will not accept are those which require above-average exercise, such as jogging or biking. I am extremely respectful of privacy and my only interest is getting to know your pet(s) and keeping them safe, happy and satisfied. My schedule is flexible and I work from home so your fur babies would not be crated/left alone for more than a couple of hours at a time when necessary. 'Leave it better than you found it' is my general motto. While dogs are my main love, I am happy to sit for cats, fish, turtles, birds, hamsters, reptiles etc. as well. Let's connect - I can't wait to meet your pets and make sure we're a match. My rates are a reflection of my ability and availability to care for your pets nearly 24/7. I feel that this arrangement is more stabilizing for pets who may otherwise feel anxious about being without their humans. Whether your pets run the home or you run the pets (and everywhere in between), I will treat your pets how YOU want them to be taken care of. I'm happy to continue whatever training methods you use while you're away or lay on the couch with them "all day," if that is what your pet is used to. I accept and discount multiple-pet homes, especially if there is a fenced in yard or they already walk well on a leash. Your animals will be well loved and cared for!
About: I have lots of patience for all kinds of animals with all kinds of behaviors. I am passionate about cats dogs, and any pet I meet. I am often the favorite human to the animals in my life. I currently have a part time job but am planning to do full time school in the fall. I will have time outside of classes, and plenty of time over the summer, to care and play with your pets! I will try to get to know your pet as best I can. I am flexible and willing to snuggle, play, go on walks or look out the window with your furry friend. If I am ever watching pets in my own home I have a very friendly 30 lb terrier mix that loves to play with other dogs.

About: My name is Serenity, and I guarantee peace of mind when you leave your animals with me. I grew up on a farm and with a mother who adores animals. I've cared for all kinds of animals and have extensive experience with looking after their well-being and health. I love any animal from big dogs to baby kittens. I know that your pet is like family to you. If you choose me as a sitter, I can promise that they will be treated as family. I can work with rescues and special diets. I can bottle feed and help with disabled animals as well. Not only am I able to look after your animals with the care that is necessary, I can also ensure the loving environment any animal deserves :) I am a college student who has lots of extra time this summer. I recently moved states and I deeply miss my own pet family; for that reason I plan on working with animals as much as possible. Tell me what you need, I'll work with you! I don't plan on hosting because I live in an apartment, however I am very respectful of spaces that aren't mine. If you need me to watch your babies over night, I promise I'll treat your space with as much respect as my own- even if your pet makes a mess, you wouldn't be able to tell because I'd clean it asap!
About: I have been obsessed with dogs of all kinds my entire life. I had a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel named Riley when I was a child. Once I was out on my own, I got a Long-Haired Miniature Dachshund, Kirby, that just passed away last March after 14 years of being by absolute Best Friend. I have been a pet sitter for friends and family and absolutely love it. I have tons of Love to give and your dog deserves all of the care and attention you would give them even if you have to be away. I would love it if you trusted me to care for your best friend. I really miss my Best friend Kirby. I live in a dog friendly apartment with a fenced dog park behind the building. My job is located next door to my apartment complex. I am able to walk home to check on, let out, and walk a dog I am sitting. I work Monday through Friday from 6am to 2pm as a Medical Assistant for over 10 years. I am very active and love taking walks. There are many trails in my area that I am very familiar with and look forward to exploring with your dog. I have a Fenced Dog Park at my apartment complex. I am located near many parks and trails to take walks and explore. I have no problem with dogs on my couch or bed. I love snuggling and petting dogs of all breeds and cannot wait to make some new dog friends.
About: Hello! My name is Dustin and I have been dog sitting for friends and family since I was 11 years old. I have experience housesitting (longest consecutive time was one week), taking care of large and small dogs, and taking care of dogs with medical needs and schedules, for example: eye drops, anxiety disorders, animals that require medication, and strict bathroom schedules. I work closing shifts at my day job but I am fully open during the mornings for your convenience! My schedule is malleable for later shifts on Wednesdays but well just need to communicate more for that! I am available before 12:30pm every day of the week and available on Wednesdays for the whole day! Just reach out and we can set up time specifics. I have a wonderful German Shepard husky mix named Dean. Sometimes Dean gets stressed and barks so to help him regulate we do tricks and play fetch with him to help his active mind focus! I enjoy taking him out for long walks and to dog parks. I am a huge animal lover but I also know to respect the space of an animal that dosen’t wanna be hovered over and have no problem taking care of their needs from a distance if needed
“Natalie did great with my special-needs cat. I was short on time due to a different pet sitter canceling last-minute, and Natalie handled all of my requests perfectly. Will definitely book again.”

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with experience caring for dogs and cats. I grew up with both and had a dog of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for your pet. Whether your pup needs a walk, some playtime, or a cozy companion while you’re away, I’m here to help! I provide attentive, loving care and will treat your pet like my own. Let’s chat—I’d love to meet your furry friend! I kindly request to care for only non-reactive dogs. I work from home a few days a week and am home most weekends. I’d love to have some furry friends to join me! I’m open for midday walks on my work from home days and am open to evening walks most days. I don’t currently have any pets of my own so your pet will get my full attention. I do have a 6 year old who loves animals and will play too! I can crate your pet, if that’s preferred and will give them time outside on a leash.
“Carolina did an amazing job watching our 3 kitties and tortoise! She was so sweet and provided so many adorable pictures and notes about each visit! She handled giving our senior cat a few oral medications very well despite his protests! She was also great with clarifications on care and responsiveness!”

“Sierra did a great job of showing up on time and caring for my kitty. I was really comfortable with her during our meet and greet, Peepers was too so I knew it would be a good fit. I will definitely look for Sierra’s availability next time I need to travel. Thanks!”

About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life and bring me so much joy. I’m the type of person who will stop what I’m doing to ask if I can say hi to a dog. Growing up, my mom had a pug/cocker spaniel mix named Samsung, and when I was in college, my dad got a 120-pound Rottweiler/Black Lab mix named Moosey, who quickly became my best buddy. Sadly, he passed away from cancer about a year ago. My dad now has a British Black Lab named Sasha, who has become my new best friend. I regularly stop by to take her on walks, play with her, and make sure she gets plenty of attention while my dad is working. Caring for dogs has always come naturally to me, and I genuinely love spending time with them. I'm currently working full time as a Marketing Lead on the Marketplace Ads team at Best Buy. However, I work from home on Friday, so i'm available Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. I live in a newly built apartment complex with a fenced-in dog area and plenty of walking trails nearby. Dogs are welcome on my furniture.
“Olivia continues to be such a great pet caretaker for our family!! She's communicative, reliable, and so so kind. She's done such a great job with our overly needy pets, and they really enjoy her company and care. Truly grateful we've found her to help with our furry critters. She always does an incredible job!”

“Shawntil was great. She followed my cat's care instructions, she was quick to respond, wrote updates, and posted very cute pictures daily. I'd trust Shawntil to care for my cat again. I would recommend her if you're looking for drop-in cat visits.”

About: I love dogs and have had a dog most of my life, growing up and as an adult! I grew up with a smaller dog (Shit Zhu). Currently we have one female Labradoodle; we lost our 15 y.o lab mix in fall of 2025 so Daisy loves having friends to come over to stay! We are an active family and spend a lot of time outside. I have 2 teenage kids age 15 and 17. They are also dog lovers and are very helpful with pet care. If needed, the kids can give your pet space too. I have good awareness of pet behaviors, can read your dog’s comfort level and can provide space as needed. We would love to host your dog at a nurturing and calm environment with plenty of walks! I currently work full time daytime hours in healthcare. I have 2 kids who are around before and after school most days to visit with dogs and let them out. I own a home with a tie out for bathroom breaks. Dogs will also get regular walks and playtime in the home with my 2 friendly dogs and my active family! I only take one Rover guest at a time but if you have 2 dogs in your family that both need care, please ask. Exceptions may be made.
Arden Hills dog parents share their Rover experiences
Katelyn was very attentive and caring. She took excellent care of my dog and my home. She thought of things that I did not even think of when leaving. She went above and beyond my expectation. I will be hiring her whenever I have to leave my pet at home. I would recommend Katelyn to anyone needing care for their pet.

Ava was really amazing. She was very professional, and above all she was very thoughtful, kind and caring with our senior with special needs dog. She met with us prior to our scheduled drop ins so she was familiar with Cole’s needs and routines. She was an exceptional communicator, sending pictures and updating us with how things were going, and very understanding with our shy senior dog. We would highly recommend her and definitely look forward to using her again!

Kristyn did such a wonderful job! We needed someone to come in for drop in visits and throw the ball with our dog and just give him some love. It was very last minute booking and she was able to meet with us and our dog the night before. She was quick to respond and sent adorable pictures of our dog. Thank you, Kristyn!
