“Raquel was an outstanding pet sitter! She beams with her love of dogs. She is great to work with, considerate, provides detailed visit updates with many photos. Highly recommend her for your Rover needs.”
“Arin was awesome! She did drop-in visit for my cat and took great care of her. She was friendly and reliable! I really appreciated the updates and photos she sent — it was so reassuring to know my kitty was in such kind hands. I would definitely book with her again!”
About: I’ve interacted with all types of animals and shadowed at veterinary clinics since I was a child. In the past few years, I’ve startedi helping pet sit for friends and family for periods ranging from a couple of days to a few weeks. I work 8:30-5 M-F, but have an hour lunch everyday. I have availability and reliable transportation before and after work hours as well. I make sure to follow owner preferences and safety precautions. This can mean making sure a dog stays away from other animals during walks, or making sure there is no trash around the house that the pet could easily get into.
About: I have experience caring for my own dogs growing up and helping neighbors with their pets. I enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they are safe, cared for, and happy. Pet care fits well into my routine because I have more availability on weekends. I can use my weekends to care for pets, take them on walks, feed them, and give them plenty of attention. I would care for pets in the client’s home by following their normal routine, making sure they have food and water, giving them attention and exercise, and keeping their space clean and safe.
“Hailey went above and beyond! We loved getting the updates and photos! She asked great questions and made sure our loved ones were well cared for while we were gone! Definitely highly recommend Hailey!!”
“Alison is a life saver! I unexpectedly had to stay at work a lot longer than planned and wasn’t going to be able to be home in time for my dog’s feeding time. Alison was able to do a drop in visit within an hour of reaching out! Took the kiddos out, fed, and gave them treats- if she hadn’t dropped in, I would have felt terrible. So grateful for her!”
“Alexis did an excellent job with Snickers. she stopped in ahead of the date I needed her so she could meet Snickers and we could visit which was very helpful to both of us on the day I was gone she sent pictures so I know Snickers so I knew Snickers was absolutely in good hands. I will definitely contact Alexis again.”
About: Moved to a big house and that has a huge fenced in yard in Norway, Iowa 15 min west of Cedar Rapids! I’ve raised and trained a shelter dog when I was 10 yrs old. I then got my dog, Odie, and raised him starting at 4 months while in college. He’s very well mannered and calm. My golden, Bowser, is a goofy loving pup who sometimes doesn’t know his size. I love dogs and cats and love playing with them. I respect their personalities and make sure they’re always happy! I currently work from home and I have occasional meetings but I am constantly playing with my dogs and checking on them. I love having my door open to our fenced in backyard so they can freely run in and out. My dogs love water activities that keep them busy. We also love bubbles! I walk my dogs twice or 3 times a day depending on their and mine activity level. I have a fenced in yard and two very friendly active dogs that we love to play. I have kennels for them if your dog prefers to be alone. I can also walk them around my block with large side walks.
“Erin was amazing with our dog! She was extremely responsive and helped us with any questions we had for her! She also was willing to go the extra mile and travel a bit farther than other potential sitters. I will definitely hire her again and recommend Erin to others in need of a doggo sitter.”
About: I grew up with all kinds of animals and have had experience for 10+ years, so I am well aware of the commitment that is required to care for pets. I am a dedicated, non-smoking, animal loving, professional who can't wait to care for your gorgeous animal/s! Each pet has their own personality and style so I adapt to exactly what your pets need and want! If they want cuddles, they get cuddles. If they want to play, I could play all day. And if it's space that they're looking for, I can give them that as well! It's all about what the precious pets need from me. I provide excellent 5 star services for you and your fur-family, my aim is to make them happy!
“Elise did an amazing job taking care of our dogs! She provided excellent communication, sending updates and ensuring I felt at ease. I highly recommend her and will definitely book with her again in the future! Thank you, Elise!”
About: Since about 2016 I am relied on and I care for my friends, neighbors and family’s pets. I have an energetic American Eskimo named Nikko that turns 6 on November 1st as well as a 3 year old mixed Golden Retriever/Black Lab named Bear and we love going on long nature walks!🐾 I am free Monday - Saturday (Sundays I typically go to church, but can be available in the late afternoons/evenings).

I can put him in the basement with my cats(who he loves) if he is too much with your pets in my home! I have two lovable cats and between my energy and there’s, we will give your pets the best attention, love and care that they need! :)
About: Growing up with the passion and duty of taking my neighbors dogs on walks, or dog-sitting for the weekend gave me the experience and knowledge to ensure your pets safety and happiness! Im currently working part-time so I have lots of time to take care of your pets. My schedule varies weekly, but I can do drop bys and walks any time if planned a day ahead of time. I come to my clients homes and provide your pets with love and care while you’re away, taking them on walks and feeding them. All while ensuring the safety and cleanliness of my clients homes.
About: Very experienced and knowledgable with dogs, cats, birds, horses, pocket pets and all types of farm animals. Can provide drop in visits for any house or farm and can take care of farm chores. Dogs staying at our house have access to the whole house, but can be kept separate from resident dogs if needed. Two 15-30 minute walks provided each day, both morning and night, possibly more depending on the dog and day. We are very active with our three dogs and any guests would receive the same care and attention as our own. We provide mental stimulation as well as physical, and daily obedience work is a part of our schedule. I am available for drop in visits.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Cou Falls is $16 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $10 and $22 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 578 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Cou Falls. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Cou Falls. On Rover:
- 85% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% can help with daily exercise
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.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
