About: I have owned Golden Retrievers and German Shepherds my entire life. I can pick up/drop off from your house (20 mile radius), take them for walks, bring to vet appointments and/or Grooming appts within a 10 mile radius. My current schedule allows Monday-Friday. As a pet parent I know how much you want your pup to live his/her best life and if you are a working pet parent that can sometimes be difficult to help get their energy out. I can stop by for a drop in visit to your home to take your pet potty or play or for a walk. I have a 8 year old super friendly Golden Retriever who could come along if your pet likes a walking buddy to do laps or if they prefer by themselves.
About: My life is National Dog Day. When I was little my dad was a breeder, so every summer we had about 15 lab puppies running around. I named one Buddy every time. I have over 20 foster dogs and cats under my belt and recently had a mama and 7 puppies in my home for 2 months. I can guarantee the ever important photo and video updates of your pet. Thank you for looking and feel free to reach out! Annie I currently work part time at a clinic. However, On days I work I am available early mornings and evenings after five as well as weekends! With my experiencing in fostering I’ve learned every dog has drastically different needs, wants and energy levels. Feel free to reach out if your dog has special needs and wants!
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: We currently have 4 dogs and love all of them! We have a Great Dane, a Weimaraner, a Springer Spaniel and a King Charles Cavalier. My pet care routine is daily!!! Starting early am with breakfast and ending with a walk and dinner in the evening and bedtime snuggles before bed. I will make sure your pet is safe, happy and taken care of each time I visit. I enjoy walking dogs and rewarding them for good behavior.
“Leslie was very prompt and professional in her response to our request. Our dog was very comfortable with her right away, and so were we. She communicated well how the in-home visits were going, and we would definitely recommend using her for dog care.”
“Elizabeth did an excellent job caring for my two cats over a long weekend. She was punctual, kind, and quick to learn my cats' specific routines. I have one cat who is quite shy and typically hides from visitors (even family members who visit regularly), but Elizabeth managed to earn his trust on the very first visit. My other cat requires an inhaler twice a day and can be quite squirmy, but Elizabeth administered the dosages without any issues. Elizabeth sent updates after every drop-in visit, complete with cute photos. She even watered my flowers outside. I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing that my pets and my home were in good hands while I was away.”
About: I grew up on a farm so I've been around animals my whole life. I've cared for dogs of various breeds, sizes and ages for family, friends, and now people on Rover. I must say, I've met some pretty awesome dogs and people through Rover. I am retired, but clean a couple houses on a monthly basis. I can typically schedule cleaning days around pet sitting. If I happen to clean a day I'm pet sitting, the longest I'm away is typically 4 hours. I don't have a dog of my own at this time. My Ella, sadly crossed the rainbow bridge in December of 2021. Crazy how your life totally changes when they are gone. I miss all my dogs more than anything and will some day have another dog or two. In the meantime, I get my dog fix by taking care of other people's dogs. I will provide exercise and companionship for your dog(s) as if they were my own. I know how hard it is to leave them when you want some time away. I will do my best to keep them on the schedule and routine they are familiar with to ease their stress of you being away. I will communicate with you daily with updates and photos, unless you specify otherwise.
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.
About: I’ve taken care of family members or friends dogs since I was 13. I volunteered at a humane society and I work at a vet clinic as a vet assistant. I’m currently working a part time job on the weekends until the end of October and I’m a college student. I am available during the week after classes. When caring for pets I prioritize their safety, happiness and comfort. I will provide them with their needs which will include playtime and plenty of attention
“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!”
“Sara was so easy to work with and took great care of our two boys. We scheduled her for drop in visits over the span of two days. She’s was very flexible and accommodating to our requests. We so appreciated her help and would definitely recommend her for others to use.”
“Ella took my last minute booking request twice now and she is amazing. Jude and Canela love her. She kept me updated, she was professional and punctual. I would definitely have Ella watch my dogs again!”
About: I've owned and been around dogs my entire life, so I'm comfortable with all sorts of personalities! I really enjoy volunteering at the humane society and helping out dogs in need. I'm quick at responding and will send you texts and photos throughout the day to help ease your mind! My schedule is pretty open at the moment! I'm free weekdays mid-day as well as night, and occasionally weekends, but I am flexible with timing to fit your needs. I'm very organized, respectful of your home, and strictly follow every instruction. I make sure to follow the routine so your pet is comfortable and relaxed while you are away.

About: Something that sets me apart from others is the fact that I raised my parents dog Hildi as I was doing online school at the time!

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Burkhardt Station is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $36 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.

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.

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.
