“Juli was a perfect dog sitter. Mac took to her right away. She took him for walks and took very good care of him and he was healthy and happy when we got home. I would definitely hire her again. Thanks much!”
“Tara was amazing! She sent really comforting messages and photos to me everyday I was on my trip. I could tell my cat got lots of pets and play time to keep her going interaction-wise through the long week I was out of town, something that was super important for her well being and Tara really did a great job on that front! I would definitely trust her with my cat’s care again in the future.”

I am comfortable caring for pets in any of these enviroments.
“Christy was fabulous with our cat over the holidays. We had a family emergency arise and needed to leave early. She not only agreed to watch out cat a few days early, but even helped adjust the booking. I definitely recommend using Christy!”
About: I had a family dog growing up and I have experience taking care of dogs of all sizes and ages. I used to volunteer at an animal shelter to walk dogs. I’ve always loved dogs and I will treat your dog like my own. My schedule is very flexible, I am currently looking for work so I am able to watch your dog anytime and stick to whatever routine you already have set! I’m happy to care for your dog in their environment where they feel safe and comfortable. Just let me know if there’s anything I need to know about your dog needs or schedule to ensure their comforts while you’re away.
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: I have experience caring for dogs, cats, birds and a wide variety of other animals. I’m excited to meet your pet and provide them everything they need! As a student in wildlife biology I have a fairly flexible schedule. Please contact me about days that are not immediately listed on my profile. Walks, cuddles, feeding, playing, medicating, cleaning up after, and general husbandry/enrichment are just the start of what I can provide for your pets. Please let me know about any particular services you may need!
About: Proudly rocking three years' pet sitting experience during college caring for cats, dogs, and reptiles. I grew up having hamsters, lizards, a hedgehog, and cats. I just adore animals. Full-time Twin Cities actor with flexible daytime availability, seeking fulfilling side work—nothing makes me happier than caring for your adorable fur babies with love. Unfortunately animals are not allowed in my own due to my roommates allergies but I would treat caring for your fur baby in your home as if it was my owns with the upmost care and respect.
“Ned came for a meet and greet so I could introduce LucyLulu and show him how I feed her, what commands we use and how to get her in and out of the house and kennel. LucyLulu liked Ned and he reported she was a good girl both visits. He lives very close and it is a good match.”
About: I'm 42 years old and have grown up with dogs my entire life. I have always loved animals and want to help those in need. I'm very loving, caring and detail oriented. I currently have three amazing pups, they are 11, 5 and 3 years old (miniature pincher and two german shepherds), they have been through training school and are very obedient. My husband and I live alone with our two sons who love dogs. I started sitting through Rover when I was laid off from the tech company I worked for, about a few years ago and I absolutely love it. I am now available for walks and drop ins, 12pm -2pm and 3pm- 12am. I'm glad to answer any questions you have. I look forward to meeting you and your pups! ( I am allergic to certain bulldogs, pit bulls, whippets and greyhounds) I am available from 12-2pm and 3pm - 12am Monday through Friday with the exception of Thursday afternoons which I’d be available from 5pm and onwards. I may occasionally bring my sons, they have grown up around dogs and are very respectful. Update: I am currently only available for walks and drop ins. My yard is fully fenced. Hank is kenneled if I leave the house. I also have two larger kennels and can accommodate kennel trained pups. My dogs will always be kenneled if I leave the house. For sleeping I usually follow what the client prefers but at no time would your dog be left unsupervised with mine. If your dog likes to sleep on the couch at night I will kennel my dogs. We are knowledgeable and aware of foods dogs should and shouldn’t have.
“Lucia did a fabulous job watching my kitties for the week! She updated me with photos every day and my spicy boy, Gustav, even warmed up to her. You can tell she’s comfortable and great with cats. Came home to happy cats and a clean place. I would recommend Lucia to anyone!”
“Katherine successfully completed three drop-in visits to feed our cats, provide them with fresh water and scoop their litterboxes. She was on time (which we really appreciate) and cleaned up the dirty cash dishes. We have already requested her for future visits :-)”
About: I've spent nearly all of my life around animals. I grew up in a house with many pets which we all were expected to help take care of. As an adult, I've lived with a number of different cats as well as a young German Shepherd. While my current home does not include any dogs, I regularly take care of my mom's animals when she's away, including a kitten and a senior chocolate lab. I do not currently have a regular job, so I can easily fit visits into my schedule. I am hoping to find a part time job which would still leave me with a flexible schedule. I can come to your home to care for your pets. I have experience around dogs of all sizes and am able to follow specific instructions if needed. I enjoy playing with pets, but also am comfortable with the less "fun" aspects of care, like cleaning up after them.
“Shel did an amazing job stopping in while I was on vacation. She made sure to keep posted on how my cat was doing and gave my very social cat the attention he needed while I was gone. Will absolutely use again when I need someone checking on my cat.”
About: Hi, fellow dog lovers! I’m a proud dog mom to Gracie (pitty) and Odie (french bully) and they are a huge part of why I decided to start pet sitting! Anyone who loves their dogs knows they’re more than pets—they’re family. My love for Gracie and Odie inspired me to share that same love, attention, and care with other pups while giving their families a little more flexibility in their busy lives. I’m just getting started on Rover, and I’m excited to meet new furry friends and their people! Whether your pup needs a potty break, some playtime, a little company, or extra affection while you’re away, I’d love to help make their day brighter. Every dog has their own personality, and I look forward to getting to know what makes your pup special. My goal is simple: to care for and love your pets as if they were an extension of my own family. As a fellow dog parent, I know life gets busy and sometimes you need an extra hand to make sure your pup gets the care and attention they deserve! I’m available for drop-in visits during evenings and weekends, making it easier to fit pet care into your family’s schedule. Whether your dog needs a potty break, dinner, playtime, or simply some company while you’re out, I’d love to help! I’ll coordinate with you ahead of time to find a visit window that works for everyone and make sure your pup’s usual routine stays on track. As a dog mom, I understand how much trust it takes to leave your beloved pup in someone else’s care. I’m starting my Rover journey because I genuinely love dogs and want to help other families feel more flexible and supported when life gets busy. During drop-in visits, I’ll care for your dog in the comfort of their own home, follow your instructions, and respect their routines and individual needs. From meals and fresh water to potty breaks, playtime, and affection, I’ll do my best to make each visit a positive experience. I’ll also share photos and updates so you can check in on your furry family member while you’re away. Your pup deserves to feel safe, comfortable, and loved, and I’ll treat them with the same kindness and care I’d want for my own dogs.
About: I have had animals in my household my whole life. I have had both cats and dogs since I was a young child, so I know the love and care that goes into providing a great environment for your furry friend! I am very patient and understanding and will give unconditional love to any cat or dog! I live in a nice neighborhood so I would like to take dogs for walks multiple times a day or play in my big backyard with them! I am a teacher in White Bear, and I would be able to take your dog for a walk before and after school to make sure they are able to get their energy out! I currently do not have any other pets in my home so all of my care an attention will go into caring for your pet. My apartment has a big back yard for dogs to run around and play in, and a quiet neighborhood to go for walks. I am also close to many parks where I could bring a dog to play or walk!
“Nicole did a wonderful job taking care of our senior cat and our hamster!! She went above and beyond to make sure that Lola was given her daily doses of medications, even though Lola isn’t the friendliest cat and likes to hide from strangers. We felt so comfortable knowing our pets were in good hands.”
About: Hi! My names Priscilla and I’m looking for some extra cash while doing something I love. I’ve been walking dogs for a bit and otherwise have spent my entire life around all types of creatures from fish to guinea pigs to horses! My dear childhood cat, Swiper, passed January 2025 after having him for 14ish years (since I was three!) He was an orange cat (if you know you know 😅) and we had many other cats when I was growing up. We’ve had my dog for eight years, since he was a puppy! Chubbs is a very energetic, quirky Dudley Lab who has given me TONS of walking experience. From both him and other dogs, I have much experience with large, high-energy pullers with many triggers and quirks. My number one priority is making your furry friend feel safe, cared for, and loved, and I can easily adapt to any pets needs—I’ve been around animals with all types of triggers and quirks, from puppies and kittens to seniors. I truly hold so much love for animals and whether it’s giving your dog a good walk, checking on your babies or keeping them company while you’re away I’d be honored to care for your furry friend! 💗 I just finished high school a few months ago and am taking a gap year while I figure out what I want to do, and I’m currently not working so my availability is wide open! I’m pretty much always available and looking for last minute walks or drop in’s. Shoot me a message and I’m sure we can work something out! Safety is my number one priority, for both me and your furry friend! Please let me know if your fur baby has any special needs, triggers, quirks, allergies, or dietary needs. I can easily accommodate to different pets needs and circumstances to make the entire experience (whether walks/sitting) safer and easier for them!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Arden Hills
Amanda was incredible. Don’t hesitate to book her - she is worth every penny. Not only did she provide excellent communication, but she connected well with my pet and provided lots of reassurance that he was in good hands. Everyday, she took care of the food, water, litter box, and cuddles for my cat without fail. She was easy to get in touch with and trust worthy. Thank you for everything!!
Mita is wonderful!!! She took amazing care of my cat while I was out of the country for 2 weeks. My kitty was so happy to have a lap to lay on and be petted everyday. Mita also made sure auto litterbox, feeder, and fountain were kept full and functioning. Her willingness to adjust her schedule to my overseas time difference was great of her. I would absolutely book her again and again.
We asked Tyler to do a drop-in visit for our three cats while away for the weekend, and he did a great job. Our cats were happy when we arrived home. Litter robot had adequate litter, water fountain and food bowls were full. One of our cats is very shy, he put in effort to find her to know that she’s well but ultimately respected her boundaries and put wet food in a safe space for her. Would definitely recommend tyler to others needing a rover sitter and would love to hire him again! Thanks again
Cari did a great job during a drop in with Honey! She was able to let her out twice and get her to take her meds even though she is anxious and wary of people coming into the house. Cari is a great communicator too! I would definitely recommend her and plan to use her again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Arden Hills is $17 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $28 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 5,856 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Arden Hills. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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 Rover's Trust & Safety page.
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 Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Arden Hills. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
