About: Dogs have always held such a special place in my heart. I had my own dog for 9 wonderful years before sadly losing her, and I’ve also spent years caring for my brother’s dogs. I’m especially comfortable with larger breeds and have lots of experience with American Akitas, so big dogs don’t scare me! I love getting to know each dog’s personality, whether they’re energetic, goofy, shy, or the ultimate cuddle bug. I’ll make sure your pup gets plenty of love, attention, playtime, and belly rubs while you’re away. I work Monday–Friday until 3 PM, but I’m available afterward and have open weekends. I’m happy to plan around your pet’s routine and my upcoming fall classes. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I want both the pet and their home to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’ll follow their normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, playtime, medications if needed, and plenty of attention. I’ll always respect their space and belongings, keep doors and gates securely closed, and make sure pets are supervised and safe. I’ll also keep the home clean and tidy and communicate with the owner so they feel comfortable and updated while they’re away.
About: Hi! My name is Allie and I've spent most of my life loving and caring for pets in multiple different environments over the years. I grew up with a bushel of miniature schnauzers, a few rodents and a snake. In college I took in a feral barn kitten and made her the talk of the university! After college, I spent 5-6 years working in a dog daycare facility which gave me experience with all different breeds and an immense amount of knowledge on behavior. After doggy daycare I moved on to working in a veterinary hospital which was an incredible resource and opportunity for me to increase me knowledge on medications as well as other medical knowledge. I would love to have the opportunity to spoil your pet as well as give you a safe space to leave your furry friend! Over the summer I am out of work and home with my pups and kids. In late August I will be headed back to work at a school nearby but working relatively short hours. We love to go on walks, to the dog park, the human park or just lounge in the back yard. I live in a 4 bedroom house with a large back yard. It is not fenced in but I do have a long line. I have a 12 year old pup who is a calm, unbothered queen and a year old pup who loves everyone and everything. In addition, I have 2 kiddos that are incredibly respectful of other pets space and will love your pets as much as their own however they can be crated if needed 😉
“Amber was a wonderful sitter! Amber had excellent communication, shared updates with photos & took excellent care of our 3 pets. We would highly recommend Amber as a future sitter!”
“One year ago we decided to give Rover a try and were lucky enough to find Jeff. He has been wonderful to work with. Always flexible, reliable, and great communication! He genuinely cares about what he does and we could not be more grateful for a fabulous year of great care with lots of love for our big guy!”
“Brianna has been doing drop in/walk visits with Parker. She’s fantastic with him, so clearly a dog lover!!! I couldn’t have asked for a better person to take care of him, and I would highly recommend her!!”
“Tara checked in daily on our two cats while we were away for 8 days. She was a great communicator, always letting us know when she would be there and how the kitties were doing.”
“Bethany did amazing with my two cats & was super flexible on dates/times when I had some last-minute changes! Loved the photos and will definitely have her on the list as a repeat sitter!”
About: Hi! I’m Ashley 🐾 I know how hard it can be to leave our pets when you’re traveling, working, or just need an extra hand, so I’d love to be that person you can feel comfortable trusting with your pets. I have two 14-pound dogs of my own who are truly the loves of my life, so I know firsthand how important it is to find someone you trust to care for your pets when you’re away. Finding someone who is both trustworthy and available when you need them can be challenging, and that’s one of the reasons I wanted to offer pet care to others. My 4-year-old dog, Penny, is one of the reasons I understand how important patience can be with animals. I adopted her three years ago, and she was very scared and traumatized from her time in the shelter. It took a lot of patience, love, and reassurance for her to come out of her shell. Watching her become the happy, loving dog she is today taught me that you never know what a pet has been through or how deeply one negative experience can affect them. I want to give every pet owner that sense of confidence that with me, your pet will be safe. Whether your dog needs a walk and some playtime or your cat needs a little food, attention, and someone to keep them company, I’m happy to help. I’m dependable, caring, and pay attention to the little things. I’ll follow your pet’s normal routine and your instructions, and I’ll always make sure they get plenty of love and attention while you’re away. I’d love to meet you and your pets and hopefully become someone you can count on whenever you need a little help! My current availability can be flexible, but is typically Monday through Friday 6 AM to 8 AM, 6 PM to 9 PM. Tuesdays and Fridays, I availability throughout the whole day and Saturday and Sunday anytime of day. My schedule is quite flexible so if you have something in mind, let’s talk through it! It’s likely I can make it work. I take the time to learn their routine, personality, and what makes them feel comfortable, and I follow their normal schedule as closely as possible. I’m patient and attentive, especially with pets who may be nervous or need a little extra time to trust someone new. Whether I’m caring for them in my home or theirs, my goal is for them to feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I’ll also keep you updated with messages and pictures so you can have peace of mind knowing they’re doing well. 🐾
About: Hello everyone! My name is Kelsey and like you I absolutely love animals. I have been a pet sitter for over six years. In total I have 10 years total of caring for animals in a few other capacities. I have experience with reactive dogs and giving animals their medicine. Currently I work full time and luckily do have some flexibility. During the week, Midday is usually when I am busiest but do have more flexibility in the morning and in the evening. The pet sitting services that I offer are for at the clients home. Any care given may vary depending on what the clients needs for their pet or pets.
About: I had a few dogs growing up (a cairn terrior and a yellow lab) and have been dog sitting for the last 6 years off and on from anywhere from a few hours up to 3 months. I work from home Mondays and Thursdays and have a typical 8-430 schedule. My significant other, Jake, has a flexible schedule as well for drop off/pick up times. While working from home I am available to take doggos on walks/runs and play! For days that I am in the office, I am able to run home on lunch for potty breaks if the doggo needs! I have a house with a large yard. While it is not fenced in, there is plenty of room to run and play on our 30 ft cable. I have a 12 year old son who loves to play with and love on doggies. I live near a lake and a park with a swimming beach if your doggo likes swimming! (I am more than happy to gives baths as well) I will also take lots of photos and have open communication so that owners can know their furbabies are having fun and in good hands!
About: I’ve always loved animals and have spent years caring for dogs both personally and professionally. I have my own dog and am very comfortable handling all the day to day responsibilities that come with pet care, from walks and playtime to feeding, medications, and overnight stays. Over the years I’ve also cared for many other pets through walks, drop in visits, and house sitting. I currently have multiple long term clients that I’ve worked with for over two years, and I take a lot of pride in being someone both pets and their owners can trust and rely on. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. Whether your dog loves long walks, extra playtime, or just wants a calm companion while you’re away, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for! I work part time and have a very flexible schedule, so pet care fits into my day pretty naturally. I’m able to accommodate walks, drop ins, and overnight care, and I don’t mind adjusting my schedule to make sure pets get the attention and consistency they need. I’m very attentive and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, so they get a lot of love and attention while they’re in my care. I like to make sure we can get out all their energy during the day to help relieve any anxiety they have without their family and feel safe with me! I know every pet and owner has different preferences, and I’m happy to adapt to whatever works best for you. Just let me know your pet’s routine and your expectations, and I’ll do my best to care for them the way you would.
About: I’ve had all sorts of animals in my life and always have enjoyed the love and care an animal is able to give us! My dad and I had an amazing black lab, Willie, while I was growing up. When Willie got older, I helped with some of his senior care such as changing his diapers. My dad and I also had two guinea pigs while I was in high school, they were so fun and I loved how much personality they had. My mom was in the Southern area of the states for about a year, and ended up coming back to Minnesota with two cats and moved in with me! I partner with my mom for their every-day care (feeding, cleaning litter box, cutting nails) often. I have also cat-sat for my friend, whose kitty had just gotten several teeth removed - so she needed some oral medications while I was caring for her. This included pill and syringe medications. As for pets that are solely my own, I have a 5-year-old horse named Atlas that I purchased after graduating from college. He has been such an amazing learning experience and I appreciate our partnership so much. I currently work full-time, and have a bit of a varying schedule day-to-day but am often out of the house for 8+ hours a day. For this reason I’m unsure if house-sitting dogs would be a great fit for my weekday schedule unless they were close by to my work, where I could stop by during my lunch and give them a potty break. Otherwise could totally do weekends! My work schedule typically hasn’t been obstructive to cat care, unless the cat is fed in small portions more than twice a day. Then, I may need to stop in during my lunch break - or find another way to split their feedings appropriately. I strive to care for any pet just as their owner would. I do know some animals are wary of strangers and I will respect your pet’s boundaries - so if they seem shy or nervous about me, I will absolutely give them space. If an animal is social and excited, I am more than happy to give pets, cuddle, and play! Additionally, more than happy to clean up any litter boxes (cats) or outside excrement (dogs).
About: Hey, my name is Amy and I have a natural love for animals my whole life. Animals are my life! I have always had pets growing up as a child and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. I have a passion for learning and understanding all different types of animals. My 7 years of experience in Pet Care is from having my own pets and caring for family, friends and volunteering over the years. I have a dog named Cody and I’ve become known as the “Neighborhood Sitter” where I live because I babysit and dog sit for EVERYONE I know. I am very fun, outgoing, and enthusiastic and that all comes to life more when I’m around animals. I am currently working full time but my shifts are spaced well enough for me to be able to care for pets around my schedule. I am very loving and gentle with all pets and can be very outgoing and energetic while playing with them as well. I am very responsible and can manage any needs your pet may have.
About: I have experience taking care of family member's dogs along with living with and watching my college roommates dog. I enjoy going on walks along with playing with and hanging out with the pets. I love all furry friends, from small to big. I just moved to Fort Collins for graduate school and have a pretty flexible schedule! I have class a few mornings a week but other than that I have plenty of time available. I understand the varying needs of different pets based on the pet itself and the owner's wants. I promise to listen carefully to the owner's instructions and do my absolute best to care for and love the pet as my own while watching/walking it.
About: I have had a pet since I was born! Family dogs, cats, rabbits, hamsters, etc. As an adult I’ve had 3 dogs of my own - hopefully a cat soon. I work from home full time M-F. I have the flexibility to care for my own dogs + other pets as long as I have wifi 😀 Dog park!!! My pups love to go on walks and interact with new dogs. I enjoy being active with other pets but also taking in all the snuggles I can.

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!!

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
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.

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.
