About: About Me Hi! We are lifelong animal lovers with many years of experience caring for dogs. We currently have two playful terrier mixes who absolutely love meeting new dog friends. They enjoy running around the yard and playing—but are just as happy to relax and lounge around the house. Our Home We have a very dog-friendly home where pups truly get spoiled. Our dogs are welcome on the couch and even sleep in the bed with us, and your dog will be treated exactly the same! Whether your pup prefers walks, backyard playtime, or being lazy and cuddly, we’re happy to follow their routine. Family & Environment We do have children in the home, and they are gentle, respectful, and love dogs just as much as we do. Our yard is fully fenced, and we have kennels and baby gates available if needed—your dog’s safety and comfort are always our top priorities. What You Can Expect Your dog will be cared for as if they were part of our family. Plenty of attention, lots of love, and a fun, safe environment to play and relax. We can’t wait to welcome and spoil your fur baby! 🐾💛 We both work Full time, and would be around in the early mornings, and then back in the evening for walks, and playtime. Your pup will be in the house with our two dogs, while at work. Fully Fenced in yard, plenty of space to burn energy. Crate available if preferred to sleep or be in while we are at work. Toys, treats, and snuggles!

“I very much appreciate Sierra coming to care for my cat, Peepers. I know my kitty is well cared for when I’m not home. Sierra is kind, punctual and a real pet lover. I’m grateful to have found her on Rover and highly recommend her for your pets too! 😻”

“Kendall was great! She was quick to reply from the start, came over and did a meet & greet with the cats, and took great care of them while I was gone! I have one very anxious cat and one very social cat, and she handled both with ease :) I felt extremely comfortable leaving both in her care for the weekend, and will definitely be booking again!”

“We recently hired Abby as our cat sitter for a one-week vacation, and we couldn’t be happier! Abby took great care of our three sweet kitties, providing them with lots of love and attention. We loved seeing what the kitties were up to each day! It was clear that our fur babies loved her, as they greeted her by the door each day! Abby kept us updated with adorable photos and messages each day - we haven’t been away from them for this long before so it really put our minds at ease. We highly recommend her for cat sitting and we will definitely reach out to her again for our next trip. Thank you Abby for being so sweet to our kitties!!”

“Michelle took wonderful and professional care of our cat and went above and beyond, even unpacking and putting away our chewy order that arrived while we were away.”

About: I bring a calm energy and genuine love for each and every dog especially when I have a very hyper/social pug at home. I’m very patient, which helps especially shy or anxious ones—feel relaxed and secure. I focus on routines, attentive to behavior, and keeping your pets comfortable. I’m reliable, communicative, and committed to providing loving, consistent care that pet owners can trust. Since moving to Minneapolis and currently having some free time. I have dedicated my time/availability to pet care and sitting at any day and time! For clients home I provide consistent, attentive pet sitting by following their normal routine as closely as possible. This includes feeding on schedule, daily walks or litter box cleaning, playtime, and companionship to keep pets calm and comfortable in their own environment. I also administer medication if needed, monitor behavior for any changes, and ensure water bowls are always fresh and full. I keep the home tidy by cleaning up after pets and respecting your space. Regular updates with photos and messages help keep owners reassured while they’re away.

About: I have 10+ years of experience caring for neighbor’s pets, including cats, reptiles, and other not-so-furry friends, as well as taking care of my family’s many dogs and my own cats. I also foster-sit with a Minneapolis rescue when it works out. When I’m not working in office Tuesday- Thursday, I’m around all day to hang out with your furry friend and ensure all their needs are met. When caring for your pets in my home or yours, they can expect lots of playtime, cuddles, and walks to the park. My home also has a fenced backyard for your pup to let all the zoomies out.

“Chloe was a superb dog sitter! We are so grateful she could stop in to care for our senior dog when we needed extra support. Would totally have Chloe back again.”

About: Please reach out for availability if you see a date not available that you want!!! I have always been around and cared for animals as long as I can remember. I have a reactive dog so I am good at watching for their cues and triggers. I also work at a doggy daycare and boarding facility! I currently work part time so times may vary but I am very flexible especially when giving enough notice.In the summer I have much more flexibility. I have such an attention for detail. At my job I am trained on looking for things that other might miss and that can range from things like limping, matting, discoloration to kennel cough and more serious matters.

“Makaila-Mae did a great job on our last minute booking request. We appreciated the quick reply and the willingness to jump right in!”

About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life and bring me so much joy. I’m the type of person who will stop what I’m doing to ask if I can say hi to a dog. Growing up, my mom had a pug/cocker spaniel mix named Samsung, and when I was in college, my dad got a 120-pound Rottweiler/Black Lab mix named Moosey, who quickly became my best buddy. Sadly, he passed away from cancer about a year ago. My dad now has a British Black Lab named Sasha, who has become my new best friend. I regularly stop by to take her on walks, play with her, and make sure she gets plenty of attention while my dad is working. Caring for dogs has always come naturally to me, and I genuinely love spending time with them. I'm currently working full time as a Marketing Lead on the Marketplace Ads team at Best Buy. However, I work from home on Friday, so i'm available Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. I live in a newly built apartment complex with a fenced-in dog area and plenty of walking trails nearby. Dogs are welcome on my furniture.

“Our dogs were well cared for while we were gone. Communication was very good with Abby. The Rover cards were fun to get after each visit”

“Anna has been absolutely wonderful. We have asked Anna to help us a few times. She has been wonderful with our diabetic cat, feeding her and administering her insulin. Recently, Anna got to come check in on our whole crew and did a wonderful job with both of our large breed dogs and our cat!”

“Connie is very caring and took great care of Oreo and sent a picture of our cat too. She went above the expectations.”

About: Ever since I can remember I have had dogs to love and care for in my home. I have a fenced in yard so for stays easy to quick let outside. I work from home so I have great flexibility of getting out with your dog. Walks, runs, snuggles I’ve worked will all dogs from just 8 weeks old to an old man that just needed some love. If you are comfortable I can take your dog on hikes with me, rollerblade/run with them or just take them for walks! I can't wait to meet your dog and get to love and snuggle them while you're away. I work from home so have plenty of flexibility for walks and getting out. I tend to also like a morning walk and evening walk myself so would be even better with a furry friend! I’m very loving and attentive to your pet! They can hang out with me in my home, and have plenty of walk breaks. Happy to work from your home as well.

About: My husband and our family have been watching dogs on Rover since before it was even called Rover. We've lived overseas a few times so if you see gaps in our reviews, that is why. We are very active with our doggie guests and would love to host your dog. We typically go on walks once a day and on weekends typically try to be outside more (as the winter weather permits). We're open to requests to take your pup to dog parks, bike rides, or walks depending on your pup's preferences. Note: you will typically see delayed responses past 9PM but will get back to you as soon as I see your messages. Thanks! Both my husband and I work full time M-F but I work from home and would be able to take bathroom breaks or walks mid-day. If you needed someone to stop by and let your dog out, it would have to be within the Columbia Heights, Fridley, Shoreview area. We have a fenced in yard in the back that we take out the dogs to hang, throw a ball, or relax. Inside the house we leave it open range as long as your pup can handle no accidents, no chewing the kids' stuffies (it's hard I know!), etc. When we are gone, we do like to crate our visitors so they don't get into mischief while we are gone.
