About: I’ve loved dogs as long as i can remember, I’ve been around dogs my whole life, had a Labrador Retriever growing up. My passion really began when neighbors would start asking me to dog sit for them. I always knew I wanted to do something with animals (mainly dogs.) a family friend told me about Rover & I immediately knew I had to become a sitter. I am very trustworthy and reliable & easy to reach! I currently do not have any pets in my home which makes me a great sitter if your dog isn’t a fan of other dogs/animals! I’m currently working part time so I have plenty of time to play with your dogs & care for them. & I can take whatever time needed to watch your dogs if you preferred I stay with them 100% You can always count on the fact that your dog is SAFE. If you don’t have a fenced in yard, I will keep your dog leashed unless you say otherwise!
“We enjoyed meeting Courtney and introducing her to our cat and dog. She arrived promptly and was very comfortable around animals. She asked great, specific questions about care, and we appreciate that.”
About: I’ve worked with dogs of all ages as a receptionist at a busy doggy daycare and animal hospital, where I got to know pups of every personality and need. I have basic training in puppy care which I use positive reinforcement techniques to help puppies learn good behavior and socialization, making their experience fun and stress-free. For senior dogs, I provide gentle, patient care tailored to their health needs and comfort, including administering medications and adjusting activities to their pace. Every pup are treated like they’re my own with love and patience. I will ensures every dog feels safe, happy, and well supported while you’re away. I’m fully available to provide attentive pet care throughout the weekdays and on weekends. While I’m actively working on building my design business, my schedule remains flexible. I will inform you immediately if any changes occur. Until then, I can’t wait to meet your fur babies! *As a reminder, please make sure you and your pup is okay being around my small 12lb pup and having my husband around.* All dogs will safely be in my secure, fenced yard where my 3 year old Min Pin mix loves to play with new friends. In clients’ homes, I follow instructions closely, provide exercise, companionship, and maintain a clean, comfortable environment.
“Kallyn is a consummate professional and fantastic at what she does! This was our first time booking with Kallyn and I think we’ve found our forever pet and house sitter. From our initial consult, where she came to our home and spent over an hour getting to know our dogs (I was impressed with the questions she asked from medical needs to our dog’s preferences), to the numerous photos and updates throughout her stay, you can tell she cares deeply about each animal and it was evident our pups enjoyed every minute with her. The peace of mind that provided me was worth every penny and then some.”
“Bri was a great sitter for my 2 boys! She communicated great and responded back quickly. I got daily photos/videos and my boys seemed to have a great time! She left the house super clean and even washed and changed out the bed sheets and towels, which is such a wonderful thing to come home to after a day of travel! I would definitely recommend her to anyone!”
“Eva was awesome with our dogs! Two days before we left for our trip, our older boy stopped being able to jump on the bed. We ordered him stairs and they came the day we left. Eva used positive reinforcement to teach him how to use the stairs while we were away. Thanks to her, our sweet old boy still got to sleep in his comfy place while we were gone. Definitely recommend!”
“Sarah was absolutely amazing and exceeded our expectations. She easily connected with our dog and understood his needs. We look forward to working with her again. We cannot recommend her enough.”
About: I have cared for every breed of dog from small terrier to beagle to st Bernard's and pit bulls since the age of 8. I am a lifelong pet person who has cared for both family members pets, my own pets, as well as the pets of friends, neighbors and collies. Worked extensively with dogs, cats, guinea pigs, snakes and fish. I have an incredibly flexible schedule as I work remote and am able to fit in most times of convenience if scheduled ahead of time. I have dependable transportation and can work from anywhere in the twin cities (or country for that matter) if the job called for it. I am a retired military veteran having honorably served 20 years in the MNARNG. I have served both overseas and domestic tours. I am a proud community activist, veteran advocate, and behavioral and cognitive skills trainer. I have degrees in law enforcement and criminal justice, as well as certificates in private security. As I mentioned I have flexibility in my schedule and just need to be notified in advance of when my services are needed. Dog walking I can drop in and provide such service anywhere in the cities, and times are flexible if notified in advance My home has two levels, plenty of space, a balcony and fenced in front yard. I have a backyard as well. The home is clean and can ensure the pets continued safety and comfort. I am willing and able to commute to pet sit in the event of a client working or being out of town. There is a cat in my home who is good with other animals and very friendly himself.
“Thank you, Natasha! Once again, I was able to leave for a trip and have full confidence my pups and cat were well taken care of and loved on! I never have to worry with “Auntie Tasha” in charge. 💕🐶🐶😻”
“Carla was absolutely amazing! When we got home, our pup was sad to watch her new friend leaving :( Carla updated us the whole trip, took Stella on walks throughout the day, and made sure she was fed at the right time. I felt so confident away knowing Stella was in great hands! 10000% recommend”
“Jade was terrific! Dogs were well cared for and she is great about communicating! She asked questions when information was needed and provided updates while we were away. Highly recommend”
“Maizey is a tough dog (reactive, energetic, tough introductions to new people), and Maliya walked right in and made best friends with her. Maliya has a great way with pups and I felt good knowing my dog was in good hands. She was a great house guest as well, and was communicative with me setting up the initial visit, planning dates and the return. I would definitely book a sitting with Maliya again. Thank you so much!”
“I cant say enough good things about Andrea! Our pup is a 16 year old Cocker Spaniel and he is in good health but is set in his ways about life. Andrea was patient with his fussiness and quirks and I could see from the pictures that he was having fun with her. I highly recommend Andrea to take care of your pets and house.”
“Angie took very good care of my dog Todd. She visited him a couple of times before the sit so she wasn’t such a stranger to him. Angie was very thorough and I left for my trip feeling that Todd was in good hands!! I recommend Angie for pet care.”
“Corey was excellent!! He took care of our 2 dogs and cat for a week!! He sent updates, pictures and videos of our fur family. Our vacation was stress free knowing they were in good hands!! 👍🏻 I highly recommend Corey to take care of your pets. Super attentive and caring. We will definitely be asking him to take care of our fur family!!”
“Cari is absolutely amazing! She is warm and conscientious and took the time to get to know our cat and dog with their various quirks! Great communicator. I did not worry about the pets for the entire trip! Not only was she great with the animals, she took care of the house and even folded laundry/sheets we left in the dryer.”

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Cannon Falls walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Cannon Falls maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Cannon Falls 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!
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.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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.
