About: I work from home full time and have the capability and desire to have a cuddly fur baby around, snuggles, walks and lots of love a must. I like watching 1 dog at a time but if they are from the same family, please feel free to reach out if there are 2. I am able to be flexible. Since I work from home full time I am available to watch your fur baby during the day, night, boarding and on weekends if needed I would take them on walks when I could during the day, snuggles, some play time and rest when needed. Plenty of food and water, no fenced in back yard.
“Ann was great and took excellent care of my older dog! She made sure he was fed and got out to the bathroom exactly as promised. Really made a big difference for my peace of mind. :)”
About: I love all animals! I would love to help care for your fur babies and make sure they get the cuddles they deserve while you are away! I have one family dog, his name is Hoover (10) and he is the best dog a girl could ask for!😊 As of right now I can care for pets anytime, I am in the process of looking for jobs:) Once I get a job I will be available nights and weekends. I will make sure your pet feels safe and comfortable and of course get lots of snuggles! Making sure they are in a fence yard, on a leash, or safely put into a crate are very important.
About: I have loved owning and training dogs my whole life, but unfortunately have one child allergic. I can't wait to meet your amazing pup of any size, and get them the needed exercise, and training if needed. I have a full-time job in hockey, which affords me a lot of free time in the spring and summer months, especially during the day. I will provide whatever is needed, whether it's a short or long walk. I'm also a runner, and happy to jog with them. I pride myself on being able to work with any kind of dog and training them to be easy and reliable on a leash.
“Our first time using Jaci and she was wonderful! We needed someone last minute and she helped us out! Even tho we couldn’t meet before hand, I felt totally comfortable having her in our home to take care of our girls! Will definitely use her again!”
About: I have helped take care of dogs and cats since high school. I have helped with pets of all ages, including senior pets. I'm happy to be active with pets and walk and play with dogs. I also work full-time and will be mostly available on weekends. I do work from home as much as I can and can be flexible with that some of the time. I can take care of small dogs in my own home. Typically, I take care of pets at clients' homes and am open to any instructions needed to do so.
“Eden was fantastic taking care of my furballs while I was gone! They loved him and came out to visit every time which is very rare for one of my kitties. I felt great relief knowing they were being taken care of everyday.”
About: My husband and I have grown up with dogs and you will receive tons of pictures throughout the day! We have flexible jobs where we can work from home so your dog will always have someone to hang out with. Our house has a very large fenced in backyard where the critters can run around and chase all the rabbits and squirrels out. Your pup will have full access to the entire house including all of the furniture and beds. Please let us know if you would like to set up a meet and greet to ensure that all our furry critters get along. We basically schedule our days around dogs and their daily needs. Just let us know what their routine is and we will stick with what they’re used to. My husband and I both work hybrid/remote and someone will always be home with the dogs to hang out with them, let them out, etc.
About: I have my own little dog that I take care of, and I am excited to take care of more. I am care giver at a health care center. Right now I am working on call as a nursing assistant in Apple Valley. I make my own schedule therefore I am free different days of the week. One week I could be free everyday and then I next I’m only free for a couple of days. My mom recently got a new fence for the backyard so our dog can roam freely without us having an heart attack that she’s going to run away 😂
About: I have a range of experience from fur babies to some reptiles (specifically frogs and toads). My family currently consists of a little pup and two fire-bellied toads. I work from home and my schedule is flexible; so I can easily adapt to your little ones routine for feed times, play time, and potty breaks. I like to provide a calming presence and enrichment for pets. From a soothing cuddles to engaging in play, I feel it’s important to give them what they need in the moment.
About: Hi! I'm a lifelong dog lover with hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, breeds, personalities, and needs. I grew up in a family that always had dogs, and caring for them has been a big part of my life for as long as I can remember. Today, I share my home with two wonderful dogs—a Cocker Spaniel and a Bulldog—who keep life fun, active, and full of love. Over the years, I've gained experience raising two puppies of different breeds, giving me a strong understanding of puppy care, training consistency, socialization, and the patience that young dogs need as they grow and learn. I've also cared for senior dogs, including administering medications and accommodating age-related mobility and health needs. In addition, I have experience working with special-needs and disabled dogs, and I understand the importance of providing compassionate, individualized care tailored to each dog's unique situation. As a teacher on summer break, I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to your pet. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playtime, enrichment activities, or simply relaxing with a caring companion, I'll make sure they receive the attention, affection, and care they deserve. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, and I strive to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free experience for both pets and their owners. I'll keep you updated with regular messages and photos so you can enjoy peace of mind while you're away. My goal is to make your dog feel comfortable, secure, and loved—just like they do with you. I look forward to meeting you and your pet and providing the same level of care I would want for my own pets! I am currently not working a set schedule so I have plenty of time for all of your pet care needs! I can do house sitting, dog walking and drop ins on any day of the week. When I stay in someone’s home to care for their pet, I will treat it with the upmost respect, leaving it better than I found it. I am clean, respectful and responsible.

Those who have young puppies I am willing to help train with the basics, I have lots of experience teaching dogs, I am currently in agility with my 2 year old border collie. I am currently working full time I am off at 6:15 Monday and Tuesday and off at 3:15 Wednesday’s and Thursday’s and I don’t work Friday and weekends.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Burnsville
Melissa is exceptionally caring and had a wonderful approach with our Great Dane, Kota. She left the perfect level of details after each of her visits and was thoughtful about our dogs knee (recovering from surgery) while still giving her plenty of time to play. Our dog was clearly comfortable and happy to see Melissa each visit- which is saying a lot for an anxious pup! Could not recommend Melissa more highly!!
Rachel is very sweet to Charlie! She scheduled a meet and greet for us before her first drop in visit, so she could meet Charlie and I could show her all of his things. On her visits, she sent photos of Charlie on his walk and played fetch and hang out with him for the whole 30 minutes. She brings such a calming presence for my high energy doggo! She is awesome!
Geshanna was fantastic and treated Duke like he was her own, the entire long weekend we required her services. Sent many pictures and videos of her with Duke, and was incredibly communicative the entire time we were away. We WILL be having her take care of Duke again if we are away, and I will do everything in my power to recommend and referred her to as many people as I can! If I could rate her more than 5 stars I would!

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Burnsville stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Burnsville choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 .

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Burnsville with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
