About: I’ve been caring for my own pets and helping others with theirs for over 8 years. I grew up with a Border Collie, a cat, and two guinea pigs, and they have became some of my best friends. Being around animals has always been so fun, and I’ve often been the go-to person in my neighborhood when families needed someone to care for their pets while traveling or working late. I’m friendly, energetic, and love keeping up with furry friends of all kinds! Whether it’s walking, playing, feeding, cuddling, or just making sure your pet feels safe and happy, I’ll treat them like part of my own family. I’m also happy to help with small household tasks like bringing in the mail or watering plants while you’re away. I have my own reliable transportation, take responsibility seriously, and always aim to provide the very best care for both you and your pet. I currently work at a school 7:30-3:30pm. I would have time before or after work to take care of your furry friend! I would also have availability on weekends too. Safety is of upmost importance for me and your pet. On walks, I always make sure your pup has a leash or a harness and I always keep them at a safe distance from incoming traffic or other people. At home, I always make sure the doors are closed and the gates are locked to prevent any pets from getting out.
“Jamie is absolutely amazing. She really cares and you can tell. Conan (Vizsla - 5yrs old) fell in love with her the minute they met! And he was such a happy and tired boy when I returned home. Thank you Jamie for taking such good care of my baby!”
“Chelsea is awesome! Very caring with our wild puppy. She is super attentive and noticed small and big changes- we had a couple of concerning days/issues and was super quick to notify us and wait for our responses. Definitely recommend!”
About: I’ve taken care of animals my whole life and have never gone without a dog in my every day live. I recently lost my dog due to old age, I can’t bring myself to get another dog yet so this is the second best thing I can think of! I would love to shower your dog with love or let them just hang out in the same room if that’s what they need. I have fostered dogs before, had dogs that given birth to puppies, and watch family member dogs often. I’m working as a realtor and my kids are in school full time so I have a lot of free time and love for all dogs I have two fur babies who love all dogs or have the space to give your dog their own area. Decent sized yard without a fence but use a very long staked leash
About: I’ve always loved all kinds of animals, and have had quite the variety of them throughout my life. Chickens, hermit crabs, rabbits, chameleons, dogs, hamsters, fish, you name it, I’ve had it! I’ve downsized a bit since all of that, so I like to spend time with other furry friends when I get the chance. Right now I have two family dogs named Mister and Puppup. We’ve had them since puppies, and I taught them everything they know! They learned potty training with bells, jumping through hoops, and basic commands like “sit” and “come”. My hours are flexible, and I’m more than happy to help with any breed, size, age, gender, etc. I love them all! Whether you just need someone to check in, or a full time babysitter, I would love to help out with your family.❤️ I am available everyday from 8 am - 10 pm but will make exceptions depending on the services you need. I’m happy to come in early or stay late just let me know ahead of time:) I have 2 family dogs who I don’t get to see much, but when I do I always make the most of our time by cuddling up with them or playing an intense game of tug of war. They’re so fluffy and so fun! I’ve had pets around my entire life, and feel like something is missing without them. My twin pups are back and forth between Florida and MN, so I welcome any opportunity to give your loved ones additional care and attention. I would love to stay all day, stop by a couple times, or even do overnights with your precious animals.

About: I have owned pets my entire life. I have had a wide range of different animals of different sizes. I have experience with reactive dogs and training them. I also help with my roommate who fosters dogs. I am a full-time law student, so school is my priority. I go to school in Minneapolis 5 days a week from 8 AM to 3 PM most days. After school, I typically reserve that time for studying, so I would love to be able to spend time with pets while I do that. I currently live with a roommate, so I cannot accommodate pets at my residence. Willing to come to wherever needed and be flexible with scheduling
About: I have spent my whole life with dogs, caring for our family dogs over the years and dog sitting for friends. I enjoy going on long walks and would love to have a buddy join me, big or small. I’m a graduate student and tend to be available either before 9am or after 5pm. I spend a good amount of time working from my apartment but sometimes have to unexpectedly run into the lab. I’m typically more free during the days on the weekend. I live in an apartment, and will not be able to host dogs here. the apartment is dog friendly so there is a chance i could bring a dog over temporarily, but not overnight. (though I wish i could!)
About: Currently, I don’t have pets. But I watch my grand pup, Seina on a regular basis. She is a 3 yr old Parson Russel Terrier. I work in the mornings from 7am - 12pm. I’m usually home the remainder of the day. When I’m not home I have doggie cameras set up so I can check in on your dog. I live in a townhome. So I will take your dog for plenty of walks.

About: Loving animals is at the heart of why pet sitting is such a fulfilling experience. Dogs, in particular, have an incredible capacity for unconditional love and loyalty. When you open your heart to care for them, you're not just providing a service; you're forming a bond built on trust and affection. Every wagging tail, wet nose nudge, and happy bark is a reminder of the pure joy that animals bring into our lives. I would love to take care of your Pet. PET sitting allows you to immerse yourself in this love, creating unforgettable moments and strengthening your appreciation for the wonderful connection we share with our furry friends. I’ve had Many Experiences with animals. As far as Young to growing up. I am working part time so I have plenty time for extra activities! I am free as a bird to enjoy time spending with your dog However I don’t have a fence yard.. but I will keep them on Leash all times! We could go on walks or just about anything! I am always able to run out for potty breaks!
“Madeline was great! I had a last minute need for a drop in visit and Madeline was very quick at responding and accommodating. My cat does not like other people but he came out of hiding when Madeline visited which speaks volumes!”
About: I have taken care of animals my whole life. I've always had pets, cats and dogs. My family and friends always have me care for their pets when they need to go out of town or need extra help. I'm always happy to help as I truly do enjoy the connection I have with animals. I have a schedule that allows me to have several days off a week, have a reliable vehicle and I am open to different situations as needed. I would put the safety of the pet's home and their well being as a top priority and make sure to be thorough. I would communicate any concerns or questions with the pet owner.
“I really appreciated all of the pictures and the video that Ciboney sent while I was away! She took really good care of my cats, and that means the world to me!”
About: I have owned a dog since I was 3 years old and never looked back. I am the go to person for my friends and family when they are out of town. I will take care and love your best friend just like they are my own. "Dogs are not our while life, but they make our lives whole." I currently work at a group home doing a few overnights a week and also work part time as a server. I am available most days for walks and drop ins. I have a 1 year old German Shepherd who is very sweet and playful, so if your pup is friendly, we can discuss doggy day care as well :) I have a fenced in yard and one dog of my own (German Shepherd) who is very playful, and my roommate has a Grey Hound who is pretty lazy and just lays on the couch all the day. My dog enjoys playing fetch in the yard, going to the dog park, walking the trails by our house, and snuggling up on the couch. Please let me know if your dog is reactive when going on walks, along with if they are friendly towards people and other dogs, as I'm sure there will be plenty of people asking if they can pet your dog! I am guilty of being that annoying person who always asks if I can pet a dog lol My dog is my fur baby and I know how hard it is to find someone who you can trust to treat and take care of your fur baby just like your own. I will spoil and give them love just like they were my own, and just like they deserve :)
About: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats in my home for my entire life; at one point, my family had two Saint Bernards, two labs, and a french bulldog all under one roof! My family has also fostered dogs for several years through an organization called New Lease on Life Dog Rescue! In addition, I grew up taking care of dogs for neighbors and family friends. I also worked at my aunts Doggy Daycare/Pet Spa for two years! Now that I’m an adult, I live with two roommates with two wonderful cats. I’m an animal lover at heart!! I’d be thrilled to get some extra animal time again! 🐾 I’m a pediatric speech-language pathologist, where I am working with kids to help them learn how to say their sounds, help them learn new words, and let their voices be heard! Although I'd love to have a dog of my own, I currently work 10 hour days Monday-Thursday and just feel like I wouldn't be able to give a pup the full attention it needs right now, as I'm still adjusting to my new career. I am hopeful that Rover gives me a chance to bond with your dog(s) and give them best care possible! I am comfortable implementing anything you need for your dog in your home. If your dog usually sleeps in a kennel, I can do that. If not, I’m more than happy to let him/her sleep in bed with me! If you need your dog to be leashed or walked when taken out, I’m your girl!
About: I have taken care of dogs of all ages, sizes, and shapes! I love animals large and small and I have dog sat for my neighbors since middle school. My dog is 7 years old now and is my heart. My family and friends call me a dog whisperer because all dogs love me!! I work during weekdays and can move my schedule depending on the needs of the dog. I have a pretty flexible schedule other than during weekdays. I follow the instructions of pet parent requests. Closing bathroom doors, crating, and feeding per instructions given to me for the safety of the animal. Any special requests I am more than able to provide.
About: I'm just an animal lover...plain and simple. I've owned many cats and dogs over the years and have also fostered and trained many dogs over the last 10 years. I love getting to know new dogs and learning how they think and act the way they do. Dogs really are my passion and a day with one of my dogs is usually my favorite day of the week. Humans are fine too...haha. I decided I’d try this and so far i absolutely love it! I am available most days for walks and drop ins but has to fit into my schedule. My home is in the heart of Saint Paul and I’ve got a fenced in yard and plenty of green space for the dogs to explore.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Dellwood
Julie was absolutely wonderful. I’ve had my rescue dog Crosby for over four years now and this was the first time I’ve had to leave him for a long period of time in the care of someone who wasn’t me. As you can imagine, my anxiety levels were incredibly high. (I have clinical anxiety and Crosby is my world.) Julie brought so much ease throughout me and my husband’s traveling period- I was actually able to enjoy our honeymoon! The care she provides is unmatched and I have never seen anything like it. If you’re looking for someone who has years and years of experience, is easy to work with, flexible, reliable, and has a genuine love for animals, book with Julie. I cannot recommend her enough. Julie, thank you for all that you did for my angel, Crosby. We couldn’t have done it without you♥️
Gavin took great care of our dog, Luna, and my brother’s dog, Ike, over the holiday weekend. He was reliable, communicative, and kept us updated with photos, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. We came home to two happy, well-cared-for pups and would gladly book with Gavin again. Highly recommend! 🐾
Joel provided an amazing drop-in service for us twice daily for 6 days for our 4 senior Dachshunds. He communicated with us each time he stopped by and sent pictures of the pups eating, getting some outdoor play time and settling down for naps until his next visit. They truly bonded with him because he gave them the kind of attention they crave—food, belly rubs and back scratches. One of the pups is blind and he helped her up and down the steps to walk in the grass. We could enjoy our trip knowing our pups were getting great care and attention while their needs were being met. Very satisfied with the job Joel did for us!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Sitting in Dellwood is $21 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $30 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 5,225 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Dellwood. 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.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Dellwood choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Dellwood with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Dellwood. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% 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.
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.
