“We are so appreciative of Brandy for taking great care of our cat for the weekend. She is timely and attentive. We enjoyed receiving her visit updates. We would definitely recommend her to others and hope to use her services again in the future.”
About: I grew up being around dogs my whole life. We typically had at least 2 and they have always been treated as family members. I lived with a cat in college and brought my own baby home shortly after. We have two cats at home, and I would love to spend even more time with animals!! I work full time and live in the same city. Depending on the weekend, I don’t typically have a lot going on and would love to be around animals more. I am pretty active so I would gladly take walks! We have two cats that are strictly indoor. They basically have free rein of the house. I understand that pets can be reserved around unknown people, so I am willing to build that trust and just hang out if needed.
About: My lifelong passion for animals began on our family’s organic dairy farm in Menomonie, Wisconsin, where I learned the dedication required to care for animals of all sizes. Over the years, we have opened our hearts and home to our friends' pets, gaining extensive hands-on experience with everything from energetic dogs to gentle bunnies. As a homeschool family, someone is almost always home to provide continuous love, attention, and structured care. We spend plenty of time outside so your pet will have lots of opportunities to exercise and spend time in the sun. Your pet will enjoy full access to our house and a large, securely fenced yard perfect for safe outdoor exploration. Located in a peaceful, dog-friendly neighborhood, we offer a warm, reliable, and attentive home-away-from-home where your pet will be treated like family.
“Vanessa is a true cat-lover and our cat was comfortable with her from the first time they met. She took excellent care of him while we were away on vacation, followed directions, and I would highly recommend her to other cat parents.”
About: I work 100% out of my home and enjoy having furry friends around to keep me company. I enjoy going outside with my friends on two walks a day. One in the morning and one in the afternoon. We are a family of 6. Two parents, three human kids and one furry kid. Human kids are gone at school during the day but our kind dog Paco is home with me during the day. Paco is a sweet and loving dog who likes friends to walk with or snuggle with. We have a loving home with lots of places to lounge out at during the day. We enjoy having additional furry friends around to keep us company during the days and nights. If you’d like to know more please don’t hesitate to reach out.
“She was amazing with Beans. Love the daily pictures. Super thoughtful, brought in some packages that were left out in the rain for us. Very happy with the service.”
“Allene had been an awesome drop in sitter for our dog Lucka. Always great communicator and takes care of business so we know he is well cared for while we are at work!”
About: I've been taking care of people's cats and dogs alike ever since I was a teenager around the Edina neighborhood. I moved to Woodbury around 2019 where I adopted a cat. I grew up with dogs but I've wanted a cat too so now I'd say I'm proficient with both cats and dogs. I work part-time. I have flexible schedule on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Fridays.so I'm pretty much available all day on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. I'm available to stay overnight if that is a need for the pet. I always make sure to establish trust between myself and the pet and the pet parent. I also understand animals need time to adjust to new people and every animal is different. Some also need more space to adjust and I'm that person that will give the time and space the animal needs.
“Joel provided an amazing drop-in service for us twice daily for 6 days for our 4 senior Dachshunds. He communicated with us each time he stopped by and sent pictures of the pups eating, getting some outdoor play time and settling down for naps until his next visit. They truly bonded with him because he gave them the kind of attention they crave—food, belly rubs and back scratches. One of the pups is blind and he helped her up and down the steps to walk in the grass. We could enjoy our trip knowing our pups were getting great care and attention while their needs were being met. Very satisfied with the job Joel did for us!!”
About: I've been around animals my entire life and honestly can't imagine not having them around. Growing up, my family had both Labrador Retrievers and a Beagle, so I have experience with dogs of all sizes and personalities. Taking care of them was just a normal part of everyday life, and has allowed me to feel comfortable with everything from energetic puppies to laid-back older dogs. I've also always had cats growing up, and now I have two of my own. Being a cat owner has taught me how different every cat can be and how important it is to respect their routines and personalities. Whether your pet loves to play, go on walks, or just wants someone to keep them company, I'll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you're away. I know how much pets mean to their families because I feel the same way about mine, and I'll treat yours with the same care and attention I'd want for my own. I work full-time during the week, but pet care fits easily into my routine with plenty of availability after 4 PM for drop-ins, walks, and check-ins. I also typically have holidays off, which gives me extra flexibility to spend time caring for pets when families may need help the most. My weekends offer the most availability, and I’m happy to dedicate that time to giving pets attention, playtime, walks, and companionship. I’m used to building pet care into my everyday routine and making sure each animal receives the love, care, and consistency they need while their owners are away. I primarily provide care in my clients’ homes through drop-in visits and house sitting, which allows pets to stay comfortable in the environment they know best. I understand that keeping their normal routine is important, so I make sure to follow their feeding schedules, medication instructions (if needed), exercise routines, and any special preferences they have. During visits, I provide plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and companionship while also taking care of the little things that help pets feel secure, like refreshing water, cleaning up after them, and making sure they are comfortable in their space. For house sitting, I treat each home with the same respect and care I would want for my own, while keeping owners updated with photos and messages so they can feel confident their pets are happy and well cared for while they’re away.
“Chad was awesome! My Small Munsterlander takes a while to warm up to men. She liked Chad right away! I knew right then he was great with dogs! He played fetch with them and gave them a lot of attention. It really put my mind to ease knowing they were so well taken care of while we’re on vacation! I’m very happy with the service Chad provides!!”
“Carolyn is such a rockstar! She is reliable, flexible and brings such joy to our fur babies!! I can really tell how much they enjoy her visits and I look forward everyday to getting a rover card from Carolyn with the pups lunchtime adventures! HIGHLY recommend!”
“Celia has done an amazing job watching my cat Thelma when I am out of town. She always leaves prompt updates, responds quickly to any notes or questions and takes the best pictures of Thelma which are always a treat to see when I am away.”
“Mikael made sure out kitties were well-fed and loved while we were out of town! They seemed very content when we came back home! Very communicative and easy to get a hold of! We would be happy to have her pet sit again!”
About: Taking care of pets has always been a passion of mine. As corny as it sounds i’ll always be an animal lover at heart. Any pet I come in contact with I seem to get along with. I’m currently only working part time so taking care of your pet will be no problem with my schedule as it is also very flexible! I have an organized, clean and loving home for my pets right now. They’re supplied with food, water, beds, and their favorite toys. I also have daily walks for them.

Traci is reliable, dependable, and so caring! She has been watching/walking my pup Ollie for years and never fails to take the up most care including keeping me up to date with photos and updates when I am away. Working with her, time and time again, is truly a no-brainer. I would 100% recommend her!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 4,962 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Bayport. 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 Bayport. On Rover:
- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% 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.
