About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life. I grew up with dogs in my extended family and have always been one of the people helping care for them, so being around different breeds, personalities, and energy levels has always felt very natural to me. In the last several years, that experience has grown through having dogs of my own and dog sitting through Rover. I’ve now cared for 40+ dogs, from young puppies to seniors and dogs with special needs. I’m comfortable adjusting to each dog’s routine, personality, activity level, feeding schedule, medications, and whatever helps them feel most comfortable away from home. Our home is very dog-friendly. We have a large fenced yard with plenty of room to play, and we’re within walking distance of a park and dog park. I work from home Monday through Friday and am home most weekends, so dogs get lots of attention, supervision, outdoor time, and opportunities to settle in and feel like part of the household. We lost our sweet girl Stella in December 2025, and we now have Ellie and Pepper. Ellie is very used to having visiting dogs around, and Pepper is a playful younger pup who loves having canine company. Between them, visiting dogs usually have built-in buddies while they’re here. I genuinely love having dogs around and want them to feel safe, comfortable, loved, and at home while their people are away. Routine I work from home Monday through Friday from 7 AM to 5 PM, so Ellie isn’t left alone during the day. I’m also home and available most weekends. Our days follow a consistent routine: Ellie goes out first thing between 6:30 and 7 AM, then eats breakfast. In the winter, walks are weather-permitting, so most outdoor time is in the yard with plenty of supervised play. Dinner is around 6 PM and bedtime is around 9 PM. Visiting dogs fit right into this rhythm, with regular outdoor breaks, playtime, and lots of company throughout the day. I provide a safe and comfortable environment where dogs can relax and play. My home has a fenced yard for outdoor time, and I supervise dogs throughout the day since I work from home. I make sure all dogs get plenty of attention, follow any special care instructions, and have an stress-free stay.

About: I’ve grown up around dogs and have experience caring for pups of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I was lucky enough to care for my own senior dog, Rocky, who lived to 16 and was truly my best friend. That experience taught me how important patience, consistency, and paying attention to a dog’s individual needs are, especially as they get older. I also currently have a puppy of my own, so I’m very comfortable with puppy energy, potty breaks, crate routines, playtime, and keeping a consistent schedule. I’ve cared for dogs ranging from Bernese Mountain Dogs to Chihuahua mixes, so I’m comfortable with everything from big, energetic dogs to smaller puppies. I genuinely care about getting to know each dog and making them feel comfortable and loved. I’m attentive to their behavior, routines, eating and bathroom habits, and energy levels, and I’ll always keep you updated while you’re away. Whether your pup needs exercise, enrichment, companionship, or just some extra love, I’ll treat them like one of my own. I work full-time during the day, but I’ve intentionally built my schedule so I have plenty of availability for pet care before and after work, as well as on weekends. I’m available for morning and evening visits, walks, and drop-ins, and I’m happy to work with your dog’s regular routine. Having a puppy of my own has also made me very comfortable building pet care into my daily routine. I understand how important consistency is for dogs, so I’ll do my best to keep their normal feeding, potty, exercise, and play schedules while you’re away. I’ll always communicate my availability clearly and make sure I can give your pup the time and attention they deserve before accepting a booking. I take safety and trust very seriously when caring for someone’s pet. I’ll always follow your instructions and your dog’s normal routine, including feeding, potty breaks, medications if needed, and any specific behaviors or precautions you want me to know about. During walks and drop-ins, I keep a close eye on your pup and make sure they are secure before opening doors, gates, or leaving the home. I’m also mindful of things that could be unsafe for dogs, such as food, household items, or anything they might try to get into. I’ll treat your home with the same care and respect I would my own. I’ll make sure doors are locked, your pet is comfortable and secure when I leave, and I’ll keep you updated so you can feel confident that your pup is in good hands.

About: I have taken care of a variety of dogs throughout my life. I grew up with a reactive dog and can recognize signs that a reaction may occur. I am available before and after work during the week to help walk your dog! On weekends I can do drop ins and walks as needed. I have lots of walking trails and areas to walk dogs near my house. My dog gets at least 2 walks every day so I love to walk around the block!

About: I’ve had dogs as pets since I was 6 years old. I’ve had German Shepards, Pugs, Labs, Boxers, puggles and mixed breeds. I love all dogs~ and am currently dog free. I will care for yours as I would my own- like children. 🥰. I’ve had a long career in Human Resources, and with that comes great responsibility, trust and integrity. I have clean background- not even a parking ticket. I enjoy playing with dogs, petting them (maybe some smooches as evidenced in my photos) and giving plenty of love and attention. I can walk dogs, feed them, give medicine, throw a few balls - whatever their favorite activity is just let me know! I have had special needs dogs as well- so special circumstances are not a problem. Thanks!

About: Hello! I’ve had pets all of my life. I had my last dog for 12 years, and now I have a two cats who are now 5. I’ve always had a cat or dog in my home. Most currently, I’ve house sat and cared for dogs for many close family and friends. My experience is with medium to large sized dogs. Depending on the request of pet parents, I can also run with dogs. I do this often for my brother’s 7 year old Goldendoodle! I have experience with cats and dogs alike, ranging from puppies and kittens to senior pets. I’m an avid runner and walker and truly believe in animals getting the exercise they need. While I currently have a cat, I would also very much so like to have some dog/puppy time on walks and check ins.

“Maia took wonderful care of our cat, Princess Leia, while we were out of town for four days. She was an excellent communicator, keeping us updated and giving us peace of mind that everything was going smoothly. When we returned home, both our house and our cat were clearly well cared for. Princess Leia was happy to see us, but she also seemed calm, relaxed, and content, which is always the best sign that she's been in good hands. Maia's drop-in visits gave us confidence that our cat was getting the attention and care she needed while we were away. We would absolutely trust Maia with our home and pets again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and caring pet sitter.”

About: Hi there, I am a certified veterinary technician, I graduated from Minnesota School of Business. I would love to help out taking care of your pet! I love animals- of course. I've grown up with dogs as well as rodents and I currently have a cat, 2 dogs, and three chickens. I have been a CVT for 7 years, I have volunteered at the humane society as well as feline rescue. I also have plenty experience pet sitting, and am comfortable giving meds. I can pet sit in your home, or I can stop in up to twice daily. I am a full time CVT so I do have a full work day 5 days a week. I have every other weekend off. I am able to provide care before and after work, with more flexibility on my weekends. I am very conscious of locking doors and gates. I always pay attention to medication label directions, as well as keeping potentially dangerous items out of reach (I have a counter surfing lab).

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Brooklyn Center

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Brooklyn Center is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $33 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 October 2026, there are 5,877 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Brooklyn Center. 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 .

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Brooklyn Center. 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 .

sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
