“Jennifer is fantastic! She took extra good care of our 4 elderly cats with special dietary requirements and medication schedules. She brought us peace of mind while on our vacation which is very much appreciated! We have worked with her before and will surely do so again.”
About: I have a special love for animals and have been relied on by friends and family for many years to help out with their pets when needed. I am able to take care of pets of any age or breed, but am especially good with senior care. I am available to come help out after 5pm during the week, outside of my other job hours, and am available all day on the weekends. We have a fenced in backyard at home for when we had dogs to let outside. We now just have cats, and spend time playing with them, cleaning litter boxes, and loving them.
About: I've taken care of a variety of advanced reptiles since I was twelve, and have experience walking dogs for the better part of three years. I currently work with two senior dogs (lab and golden retriever), and assist with: daily walking, brushing, and feeding. I have a part-time job, but I'm more than happy to spend my afternoons helping with anything pup-related! With proper notice, I have exceptional availability for a variety of tasks! I believe the compassion, respect, and structure are the cardinal rules of pet care, and strive to demonstrate those with each and every client. My ultimate goal is to do what's right for the animals in my care, including fostering a good relationship with the human guardians of my clients.
“Regina is absolutely the best. We had a serious family emergency and had to go out of town very last minute and she jumped right in. She even cleaned our cats’ food area. I just can’t thank her enough. So impressed and grateful.”
About: I've taken care of big and small dogs most of my life. Love them and take care of them like family. I will take good care of your pets. I love the outdoors and going on walks. I foster dogs , and get them ready for a forever home . Pet care is completely random most of the time As I work randomly throughout the week and don’t have a set schedule . I do work nights Monday-Wednesday . I would care for your dogs with kind care and if you have a big dog you don't have to be scared of me walking them and them going lose. I am stronger than I look and have about 6 years of firefighting experience under my belt. I am tidy and neat and don't track any dirt inside the house.
“Autumn did a wonderful job taking care of my kitty Ross while I was away. She followed my instructions perfectly and sent me updates. I came home to a very happy kitty! I highly recommend Autumn to all pet owners who are looking for a fantastic and reliable sitter! Thank you Autumn!”
“Addie was so kind and thoughtful when taking care of Penny. She went above and beyond to help and communicate with me. I would recommend her a million times to anyone looking for fantastic service and care!!!!!”
About: Retired but a “young” 61 . Lost my dog this year and can’t have pets where I currently live so I’ve been getting my cat and dog fixes watching family and friends pets ! I’m a new Grandma so expect your pet to be spoiled and get lots of attention - love if they want to sleep with me . I can do overnight, day sitting or drop in at your house . Will meet you prior and check my references- I will do a good job for you and you can relax while away ! I’m retired so my time is my own -7 day a week availability-and I can hang with your pet all day if wanted - will walk and take outside to potty Sadly my dog passed recently- I’ve stayed at my sisters many times with her dogs —one is a senior and one is a puppy - big fenced yard and lots of in and out . They are welcome in my bed - love to snuggle with them
“Rose was so kind. I’d forgotten to set up the door code for her and after failed attempts to reach me she went back later in the day once we connected. Thanks for going the extra mile.”
“We had a great experience with her! She was wonderful with our puppy, who is definitely in her land shark phase right now, and handled all the puppy chaos so well. She was communicative, reliable, and it was clear she genuinely cared about our dogs. I especially appreciated that she noticed one of our dogs was nervous because of the fireworks and spent time comforting her. It was really thoughtful and meant a lot to know she was paying such close attention. We’d absolutely book with her again and would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for someone to care for their pets.”
“Ashley is an awesome pet sitter! I hate to even call her that - she's your pets best friend when you're out of town. She's attentive, follows complicated directions flawlessly, and truly loves and cares for your animals like they're your own. She even accommodated a last minute personal emergency with grace. Thank you Ashley, I can't wait to work together in the future. Sushi and Bamboo already miss your playtimes!”
About: I've grown up caring for three dogs at once in a busy household, so I’m no stranger to managing multiple pets with love and attention. I’ve also worked at a dog daycare, gaining hands-on experience with dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I’m especially confident with dog walking and making sure every pup gets the care, exercise, and attention they need. I’m currently working part time at cub so I’ll need to schedule around that but other than that I’ll be free most of the time. I treat every pet like my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I follow your instructions closely and keep your home clean and secure.
About: Very well experienced when it comes to taking care of animals. I have grown up having both dogs and cats in the house. I have experience in working at a kennel with various sizes and ages of dogs and cats. I am also able to give medicine if needed. I have been dog-sitting and house sitting for many years and am able to provide references if needed. I am looking forward to meeting you and your fur babies! I work 5am-2:30pm and go to school full time online but would be able to fit your personalized pet care into my daily and weekly schedule. I treat all pets as if they are my own and believe that animals are to be taken care of and treated as if they are my own.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Chanhassen
Our dog can be very nervous around new people, and has even completely refused to go outside for strangers before, but Hailey got her out in less than 5 minutes! She communicated with us the whole time and even sent some sweet photos of the visit! Can’t wait to have her back!
Ella was absolutely fantastic for our first Rover experience and we’d be super happy to have her back again. It was such a relief to let our dog stay home instead of going to the kennel. Ella asked great questions before taking the request, left comforting feedback while we were away & we came home to a perfectly cared for happy dog. Thank you Ella!!

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Chanhassen stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
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 Chanhassen 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 .
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.
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 Chanhassen with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
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.
