“Amy is truly a dog whisperer! My very barky and unsure husky mix warmed up to her within a few minutes and has been great for all the visits. Our other dog, a little beagle, has been a cuddle machine with her. I would recommend Amy with 10 stars if I could. We are definitely having her back!”


“This was our first experience using Rover. Thank you for making it so easy. Macy S was the best! She was so polite and conscientious. She sent the cutest pictures of our cats warming up to her and it made us feel relieved they were safe so we could enjoy our time away from them. Overall very positive experience. Would use Rover again.”


“Dani has taken care of my cat Razzberry on two different occasions this summer. She took very good care of my little girl and I wasn’t worried about her at all while I was gone.”


“Xinia is an excellent dog sitter! She meets my anxious dog at her level and goes above and beyond to ensure her comfort and trust. Xinia is very reliable and I just know my dog enjoys seeing her! I will definitely book her again 😊”


“Sophie has been doing drop ins for my pup frannie for a while now and she’s always reliable, flexible with my schedule changes, and detailed in her notes from the visit. I know Frannie loves playing with Sophie!”


“We were a little nervous as this was our first time using Rover, but Molly immediately took those nerves away with how kind, thoughtful, and communicative she was. Molly truly exceeded our expectations with her amazing care. She sent us detailed messages and adorable pictures of our cat which was so appreciated and alleviated our worries about leaving our buddy at home during our trip. We will absolutely be booking Molly again when we need a pet sitter. Cannot recommend her enough!”


“My first time using Rover. Kayleah was really great! The pictures she sent put me at ease, when I got home I saw that she had cleaned the floors! I was so surprised, what a treat! I am so glad this service is available!”

About: Your pet’s happiness is my main priority. I have experience with big dogs and small dogs. I've grown up with Mastiffs and Great Danes. I have always been an animal lover of all kinds. I have had dogs all my life! I currently have 3 dogs and 1 cat of my own. I am married so when I’m away taking care of your pets my husband is home taking care of ours. I used to use Rover briefly years ago to help care for pets as a fun side job but working another full time made my availability difficult to work with consistently. I recently decided to start being active on Rover again now that I have more availability because working with animals is something that truly makes me happy and I’m passionate about. Daily walking (if requested) and playtime are included with house sitting. I can make adjustments to make your pet as comfortable as possible. I want to do whatever I can to be their advocate out in the world. My pets are my babies and I will treat your pets the same. I enjoy training animals and encourage proper leash & obedience training. I look forward to taking care of your fur babies! 🥰🐾 I’m currently working part time as a personal trainer so I have plenty of time to play with your pets. I’m currently very flexible for pet care. I treat your pets like my own! I make sure they are always well taken care of and happy! We play as much as they want and will go on plenty of walks if requested. Can’t forget about the endless supply of pets and cuddles as they please! I also can understand and respect a pet that appreciates their space and has healthy boundaries.

“Lacie went above and beyond caring for our dog while we were away! She is a fantastic communicator which really put our minds at ease while we were out of town. We really appreciate her kindness and generosity for our dog, and we could tell he was incredibly well cared for while we were gone. We could not recommend her service enough! Thank you!!”

“Phoebe was awesome! She agreed to drop-in visits for our pup on short notice, which gave a us a great piece of mind while we were out of town at an event. She was very responsive, and sent updates with each visit, which was great. I will definitely look her up for future pet care needs and recommend her to anyone needing a rover sitter in the Roseville area!”


“Kristen has been so wonderful and helpful with our animals! She is very reliable, and has been super flexible when last minute things have come up. We'd recommend her without hesitation, and we hope to continue regular drop ins with her in the future!”


About: I (Ellen) am a lifelong dog lover who has spent a decade volunteering with various animal shelters and helping rescue dogs find permanent, loving homes. I also have some basic dog training experience as a result of my volunteer work. My husband, Erik, and I are both excellent at getting dogs to feel comfortable around us, and we've been go-to dog sitters and dog walkers for friends, neighbors, and coworkers. We live in St. Paul and have flexible work schedules, which leaves us plenty of time to attend to your dog throughout the day or stop by your place for walks or short visits. Since we have no pets of our own at the moment, we're eager to give exercise, attention, and love to your dogs. I'm a fully remote worker with a very flexible job, and my husband is currently searching for full-time work. With no pets (or kids) of our own, we have plenty of time during the day and in the early evening to devote to the animals we care for. We have a comfortable, minimalist home where we can easily close off less dog-safe rooms (our basement, the bathroom), where there isn't much for your dog to get into, and where they can easily hang out with us. Because we're both home during business hours, your dog will always have company, and you won't have to worry about loneliness or boredom. We're also happy to come to clients' homes to walk dogs, follow their house rules, and clean up occasional messes and accidents as needed.

“Cindy is always very attentive to the needs of our cat and is a great communicator. She lets us know what she observes about his behavior and has great problem solving skills. We rest a lot easier when we know she’s looking in on him!”


“Emily too great care of our kitties. They are usually pretty skittish around new people but they warmed up to her almost immediately. Would highly recommend Emily to take care of your pets.”

Haley S.
“Haley has taken care of my Maddie for 2 years. She takes her for walks, feeds her and spends quality time with her. Maddie was a rescue dog that is very shy and Haley has taught her to be more social. Not only does Haley take care of Maddie but she stay in my home and watches it while I am gone. I would not feel comfortable about leaving Maddie or my home if it wasn't for the fact I know i can count on Haley to take care of things.”
