About: Hi! I’m Steph — a full-time pet caregiver through Rover and the heart behind a growing pet photography business. Animals have always been a big part of my life. I’ve been pet sitting since I was 13 and have experience with all kinds of animals, from high-energy pups to quiet companions. I share my life with my dog Scooby, who’s a big lovebug and gets along great with both people and other animals, and two leopard geckos, Helios and Haku, who each have their own little quirks and charm. Over the years, I’ve worked closely with dogs and cats of all breeds, ages, and temperaments. I also have hands-on experience with pet nutrition and wellness—I've worked with a variety of healthy foods, natural supplements, and holistic care routines. I’m great at picking up on subtle signs when something’s off and take pet health seriously. Whether we’re playing fetch, going for a walk, or just snuggling on the couch, I’m all about creating a calm, loving environment where your pet feels safe and cared for. I tailor my care to each animal’s unique personality and needs, and I always follow your instructions to a T—because your peace of mind matters just as much as your pet’s happiness. My goal is simple: to make sure your pet feels loved, understood, and completely at ease while you’re away. I am very flexible with my schedule so please feel free to send me a request or a direct message to sent up an appointment! I have worked with certified fear free trainers as well as being a groomer for 3 years now I am very aware of animal body language and how to meet their needs so they feel safe in their environment. I do have a dachshund mix named Scooby that is incredibly friendly with Small to XL dogs. She’s always up for having a play date!
“Kayla was a life saver for me this past week! I typically work from home but was traveling for work - so Kayla came over during the workdays to take Barley for a walk. She was flexible, responsive, and loving towards my two-year-old golden. She even offered to bring Barley a raincoat when it was raining one day the days! I will definitely be using Kayla again on my next work trip!”

“Angelica is awesome! She was very communicative and was very caring and thoughtful in how she interacted with my dog. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a walker or sitter!”

“Kendall stayed with my two energetic dogs for a long weekend. She was great about regular updates and photos and treated my two girls like loved family members. They were not at all anxious when I returned, so I know she was a great choice for them and me. I look forward to booking her for my next trip, because I know they will be in good hands. Thanks Kendall!”

“Madilyn has been amazing. She takes wonderful care of my dog, Bailey. She sends detailed notes and cute photos. Bailey is 15 and having a lot of issues, she is very patient and loving with him. I am so lucky to have found her!”
About: I have cared for animals since I was 10. Neighbors, friends and family have asked me to petsit, walk, bath and help care for their animals. I can care for puppies/kittens to seniors and everyone in-between. I rely on positive reinforcement for training. I can administer medications, trim nails and other care required. I have worked as a Vet Tech and currently I am in school to become a certified Vet Tech. I am currently in school with mostly online classes so I can seamlessly accommodate your pets care. I will send daily updates and/or photos if requested. I care for your pets from the comfort of your home giving you piece of mind while traveling while your pet will be less stressed.
“Leah was great for Arf’s daily walk. She was on time, sent a report and pictures each day. She was accommodating when I needed to add an extra day and prompt to respond. We will definitely use her again!”

“My dogs love seeing Ashlynn every week. She's great with them, sharing photos and notes about their walks. I appreciate her clear communication between walks. So glad we found such a great dog walker!”

“Highly recommend! Although our dog was nervous at first, Nate spent extra time getting our puppy to trust him. They had a wonderful walk together. We would book again!”

“i’ve been using emerson consistently multiple times a week for almost a year now- he is flexible, communicative and extremely reliable. he does a great job with my large doodle and even was able to manage my two large dogs when i had them both. will continue using emerson and highly recommend!”


“Lauren is such a wonderful person! Very personable, great communication, and she took such great care of my dog Skylar. They went for an hour-long walk around my neighborhood. Skylar looked so happy and was perfectly tired from the exercise. Highly recommend Lauren and will definitely book again!”

About: Highly experienced with all different pets (dogs, cats, bunnies, snakes, turtles, hamsters, etc). I have a sweet spot in my heart for human kind & animals & I believe we should all share the earth. ♥️ I wake up pretty early & I am very attentive so I can give your babies plenty of affection. I love going on walks, fairs, or pawtios but I’m always craving a fur baby to spend that time with. I own my single family home in Robbinsdale with a nice size yard. My neighbors also have dogs with fenced yard for puppy play dates if I get permission.
About: I’ve been taking care of neighbors’, friends’, and families’ pets since high school. I have experience in both daily care (including feeding, walking, playing, and bathing) and overnight care. I love all dogs, big or small, and also have more recent experience with cats. I am comfortable with young dogs as well as old dogs, including administering medications. My love for animals makes pet care one of my favorite experiences! I am currently home for the summer from college and have a pretty flexible schedule. Most weekdays I work for a few hours in the evening (usually around 4-8pm) but have a relatively open schedule otherwise for both weekdays and weekends. My daily experience with pets through my own pet ownership and through nannying families with their own pets ensures that I have the experience needed to meet the needs of all pets throughout the day. I can easily work around a pet’s schedule and prioritize the pet’s needs. I also have a car if any transportation is needed.
“Lexi watched our dog for a week and took great care of him, he was one happy boy! She took him to the beach, park and for lots of walks. Our dog can occasionally have anxiety when we aren’t around but her and her pets company kept him at ease while we were gone. She is so flexible with times/pickups and quick to respond!”

Teresa and our pup had such lovely times together! We are so grateful for Teresa’s communication, reliability, as well as patience with our young, high-energy pup. It can be hard for us to leave our dogs, however we could trust Teresa, knowing she brings safety & care. We’d totally book her again if she’d have us! Thanks again, Teresa!

Alex was so patient with my new rescue dog in her second day at home. She scares easily snd Alex was very patient. I appreciate him building trust with my dog. Also, Alex is a very friendly, nice guy also. I will definitely be hiring Alex again to continue to socialize my dog and give her the activity she needs.

Jessica was the dream to work with! She flexed with us when we were dealing with some unknown scheduling details, was so sweet with our quirky dogs, and was so responsive! We will reach out to her for all of our dog care needs in the future. You can feel confident your pups are in GREAT hands with her.

We really appreciate Kiah! She was able to come by on a last-minute request to give our sweetheart Leia lunch and take her for a walk, which meant so much to us. She did a great job and kept us updated — Leia looked so happy in the photos and clearly enjoyed all the belly rubs. We’re so grateful for her flexibility and care. Would absolutely recommend Kiah!

We used Ashley for about eight walks while my husband was on vacation. We had a positive experience with her. She is an excellent communicator, punctual, remembers everything I tell her about our dog Molly’s preferences and needs, and is generous and caring with our dog. A real sweetheart! She has flexibility in her schedule, in that a few days I needed her to come back for a second walk and she was able to do so. We will definitely use her again!
