About: Countless friends and family have asked me to watch their pets while they're out of town especially last minute. I respect and care about each pet, trying to make them as happy and comfortable as possible. I work remotely a few days per week and available on weekends. Schedule can be flexible depending on service. Also tend to be available on holidays. When I visit a client's home, I keep it the same as when I came in. I respect and keep their home clean and try to have the pets as comfortable as possible.
“Amanda provided great in-home care visits for my cat Bernie. Her visits were on time and her care was complete. I would be glad to hire Amanda for any type of animal care.”
“Rachel took great care of my cat Jack during some drop in visits. She was sure to send pictures, communicate well, and spend time playing and cuddling with him. She was great!”
About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs my entire life. I currently have 4 amazing dogs of my own, I foster and volunteer for a local rescue so I have worked with dogs of all sizes, temperaments and needs. Whether it’s snuggles on the couch, long walks, play time, or calm companionship, I’m here to give your dog all the care, love and attention they deserve while you are away. I believe in treating every dog like my own-with patience, kindness and fun. I provide regular updates and photos, so you'll never have to wonder how your dog is doing. Whether it's a walk, a drop-in, or an overnight stay, I'll make sure your pup is safe, comfortable, and happy. Let's set up a meet & greet-l'd love to meet you and your furry best friend! I currently work full time so am available any day after 3 to bring your pup for a walk, feed them or bring them to my house to play with my dogs. I can make any night work for overnight care. I live in a dog-loving home with a secure, dog-friendly environment. My own dogs are well-socialized and friendly, and I take introductions slowly to make sure everyone feels safe and comfortable. I am also available to come to your home to take care of your dog if preferred.
“Katelyn has been great helping me out with my dog, Jaxx. She’s reliable, caring, and always makes the process easy for me. Even on short notice, she’s been available and willing to help, which I really appreciate. It gives me peace of mind knowing Jaxx is in good hands. I definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable dog sitter or walker.”
“Sarah has been amazing with my girls. She kept me updated with everything so I didn't need to wonder how they were doing. She even went out and picked up all the poop when I told her prior that I would do it when I got home but she even went out in the dark rain again! She played with the girls and cuddled when that's what they were in the mood for, too. I definitely would recommend Sarah. She was a lifesaver ❤️.”
“Ashley was absolutely fantastic! She went way above and beyond what was asked and she gave great care and attention, and catered suggestions to what Ollie and I needed. Highly highly recommend!”
About: Having fostered dogs, I am able to learn and adapt to how individual dogs work. I love being in the presence of animals and paying attention to their needs. I am a college student, and am away from the house for roughly 5 hours daily in the mornings. I also work part-time in the evenings and during the day on the weekends. I stay with your dog for as much time as I am able. I am capable of taking them on walks and/or runs depending on their needs, and continuing the training they already know.
About: I’ve always had a huge love and passion for all animals and have cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities for over five years. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and care for their pets. I’m attentive, patient, and always prioritize safety, comfort, and routine. My availability is flexible and depends on my work commitments. I only accept bookings when I can dedicate proper time and focus to each pet, ensuring consistent and attentive care. I’m very mindful of safety and structure when caring for pets. I follow routines, monitor behavior closely, and create a calm environment so pets feel secure and comfortable while in my care.
“My dog, Sunshine and my cat, CutiePie enjoy being with Ping. They are happy to be with her. She is a delight for me as well. She brings a lightness of being into our apartment. She was able to get Sunshine’s boots on for her nice long, extremely cold January walk. My dog and cat greet her at the door. And I can have some alone time out of the apartment to read or knit.”
“Jenna did a great job! She was punctual and communicated well. Her pictures were fantastic and put us at ease that everything was being cared for. She went above and beyond when she re-set our plants on the deck, after a wind storm tipped them over. We were very happy with the way she took care of our kitties and will definitely ask for her next time we go away.”
About: I grew up on a farm with 2 dogs and lots of other animals. Both dogs were part of the family and slept in the house. One always by my bed. I owned a Boxer and a Yorkie as an adult. They were part of the family growing up with my kids. Both dogs have crossed the Rainbow Bridge and my kids are adults living their best lives with their significant others. I have two loving cats. I volunteer with the MN Boxer Rescue picking up and transporting to foster care when it meshes with my schedule. Recently put my name on their list for emergency foster care just to get the dog in need here to Minnesota until a long term foster care provider is available. I enjoy pet sitting for my dog fix and it helps support my horseback riding lessons😊 I work Monday through Friday full time. I have watched both big and small dogs on this schedule and have had no issues. This might not work for all dogs during the week as each one is different. I baby gate my stairs so my cats can run around upstairs and come down to check out your dog if they want. At night your dog can stay downstairs loose if you tell me he/she is ok that way or crated. If he/she needs to be with me in the same room at night that works too, but preferably in a crate as my cats sleep with me. If it is only for a weekend I can put the cats in my spare bedroom at night so your dog would not have to be crated in my room. Every dog is different, so I am flexible. I live across from the Mississippi Gateway Regional park in a townhouse with lots of trails for walking. I am only a 10 minute walk from a dog park. I will take your dog out as often as you let me know he/she needs to go out. Like I said , I work full time during the week, so I might not fit your dogs needs if he/she is not able to hold it while I am gone at work. Weekends I am home.
About: I’ve always had animals to take care of since I can remember. Both cats and dogs, and even some other small animals/exotic pets. I worked at a boarding facility with daycare, and I have fostered many dogs in the past. I’m an animal science major and have many hours of experience working with animals of all kinds. I have worked with reactive dogs and I’m always up for keeping your routine consistent with any training you might be working on as well! I will be working a summer job along with pet-sitting this summer. I will only be working max 8 hour shifts and will always have time to care for my own pets, along with yours. If you choose me to take care of them. I have an unfenced yard, but I do have a tether that I can attach a dog to. But of course, I can walk them around the yard on a leash, if that works better for the dog! A typical day with my dog looks like: Wake up and immediately feed him and replenish his water, then out for a potty break. We then spend some time relaxing while I get ready for the day. If he wants, we spend some time inside playing with toys. If I need to go to work, he resides in the common areas of the house. He will always get let out before I leave. If we spend a lot of time inside/if I have to work, I’ll get home and we usually go for a walk to get some energy out. We usually do some training and other daily activities either on the walk or after. Then in the evening he eats again, we go out for a potty break. Normally my dog doesn’t have an overabundance of energy, so we spend the rest of the night cuddling on the couch.
About: I grew up on a farm surrounded by furry friends; they were a part of our family. Currently, I work from home and have no pets. I would love to adopt in the future, but until then I enjoy watching others' pets whenever I get the chance. I live in a pet-friendly building with its own dog park, a few blocks from the Mississippi and the waterworks park! I like to allow animals to explore and be curious during walks and am patient with them if something catches their attention. I currently work from home, so I am available to give your pet all the attention they need! I live in a building with a dog park so they can have as much playtime as they want. I spend my work day at home and have a very flexible schedule. This allows for extra time for play time, long walks and cuddles!

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Coon Rapids
I just love April and how she takes care of my cat! I’m so glad I found her. She has cats also so she always tries different fun things with my cat. I like that. And if I didn’t want April all to myself I would tell everyone to hire her for their pets…! She is great!
Ashley did a great job with Banksy. He even snuggled with her for cuddles, and he's not always a real lovey-dovey guy! Ashley is really easy to communicate with, always responded quickly to my messages, and was able to extend the booking a couple of extra days which helped me out a lot. I'd definitely have her watch Banksy again in the future!
I am just so impressed with Carter! They recently helped with Cali’s nail trim and were absolutely excellent. Carter is so professional and was so, so sweet with Cali throughout the entire visit. It is such a relief to find someone so kind and wonderful to work with. Highly recommend!
Jordan is exceptional! She took such good care of my cat, Belle. I was nervous as I hadn’t left Belle for extended periods of time before, but I had no worries once Jordan started visiting. She was so patient and caring with my shy kitty and even became good friends with her. Jordan has amazing communication skills and gives frequent and timely updates. I would highly recommend booking with her!
My kitties are always so happy to see Maegan when she arrives! She takes wonderful care of them and communicates immediately with me if there are any issues. She is our pet sitting hero!! Highly recommended if you are in need of pet sitting of any kind. She said she'll pet sit large animals too.😊

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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 cat, 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.

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.
