“Adriana took very good care of our pets and they loved spending time and playing with her! She communicated with us very well and worked with us if we need to modify the schedule. I would definitely recommend her services.!”
About: I have taken care of my family dogs and cats since I was young. I got my own dog at 17, raising him as a new puppy. I also cared for my lab as he was getting ready to pass. I love all dogs, big or small. I have 2 cats with my boyfriend and love laser games and playing with cat toys. I am a former college athlete and love being active, especially with animals. I am going to be starting medical school at the University of Minnesota this fall. I love long walks and playing with animals. I have a flexible schedule to stop in and care for your sweet pets. I have grown up with small, medium, and large dogs and have learned how to handle and walk all of the appropriately. I have 2 cats now, that love playing with lasers and are easy to handle. I have handled cats when they are uncomfortable and know how to avoid injury and clear the cat from a stressful situation. I will do everything to protect your pets and provide them with quality care.
About: I have had pets my whole life and have been dog sitting for 3 years now! I have taken care of dogs all ages and with that has come many different routines I have adapted to ensure they are feeling the best they can, from special meal recipes to different amounts of exercise (from a short walk around the neighborhood to playing fetch in a field for running and getting energy out) One thing I love to do during my visits is send pictures throughout my stays to you so you can feel less worried knowing they are doing great + to see the faces you miss the most! I completely understand that the worst part about doing something is leaving your loved ones behind so my goal is to make sure everyone feels safe and happy! I love to give all the snuggles to help them feel loved while you’re gone! I am currently a sophomore at UMD so I am available for boarding or to pop over for a visit/walk during the weekends and weekdays in the morning until 9am and after 3 pm! I have had many different environments while pet sitting, so I am great at kenneling them up, or making sure they can’t get into any trouble (or garbage) while being out!
About: Hi there! My husband and I have had dogs our entire life so we’ve been around the block! We’ve grown around labs, Goldens, aussies mostly but have taken care of families/ and friends dogs of different breeds and adore each of them:) We will 100% treat your buddy like one of our own. Can’t wait to meet you guys 🐾 😊 We just bought a new house! And we have a really big yard that is fenced in! We said once we have a yard we are wanting to open it up again to serve dogs in the Duluth/Superior area. We both teach at schools, so there are times and days we have breaks. Weekends too:) We have a big fenced in yard. We have a female Australian Shepherd and a female Golden R- both love to run and play :) With that, they love to play with other dogs! My husband and I are quite active as well. We love hiking, biking, running, going on walks, go to the water ANYTHING. So if you need us to tire out your pup we got you😆. We can close off our house with gates so your pup has access to a portion of the house if we have to make an errand otherwise we can have them in a kennel if you prefer. We understand that sometimes it’s scary dropping off your pup at a new place, so if you would like to schedule a time to meet to see if we are a good fit we can do that:)
About: Hi! My name is Mara, and I would love the opportunity to care for your pets and your home while you’re away. I have grown up with multiple dogs and have always loved being around animals. Over the years, I have also provided dog sitting and house sitting for neighbors and family members, caring for pets in their own homes, following their routines, and making sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship. I understand that every pet has their own personality, preferences, and needs. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply having someone nearby, I will take the time to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I also have experience providing more specialized care, including administering IV medication for an elderly animal I was watching. This experience taught me the importance of patience, responsibility, attention to detail, and following care instructions carefully. My background working in childcare, summer camps, and other safety-focused roles has helped me become dependable, organized, and attentive. I will treat your pets like they are my own and your home with the same respect I would want someone to show mine. I am happy to provide updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I am currently a full-time online student, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to caring for your pets. I am available for walks, drop-ins, and house sitting, and I am happy to work with your pet’s routine to provide consistent and reliable care. I care for pets by keeping their routines consistent and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I follow all care instructions for feeding, walks, medications, and playtime, and I treat each pet and home with the same respect I would want for my own. I am happy to provide updates and photos so owners can have peace of mind knowing their pets are well cared for.
About: I have owned dogs my entire life. I grew up with long haired dachshunds. I have also owned labs, a Dalmatian, huskies, you name it. I love big cuddly dogs the most, but will love up on the smallest to the biggest dog the same. I also have a big heart for senior pets. I work full-time during the week but I am always on the go and able to help with pet sitting, dog walking, helping with caring for animals as needed. I am available for house-sitting depending on the days/times. When I go to someone's home to care for their pet I will treat it as though it is my own pet, which is with the utmost care, kindness and love. I have a huge heart for all living beings including animals and humans. I am highly responsible, and responsive.
“Raelin did an awesome job with our cat, Tiny. She was always on time for the drop-in visits and provided great info on the Rover cards and lots of cute photos. Raelin helped us feel connected to Tiny from very far away 💖 We’ll definitely book with her again!”
About: While I have not been a professional dog sitter I have always been the one to offer to walk or watch my coworkers, family, and friends dogs.I absolutely love being around them, and can't wait to meet yours. In the past I have used Rover to find a sitter for my dogs when I am travelling with them. Having a safe place for them to be when I go tour around a new city is such a nice option to have. Sometimes this is a few hours other times an overnight. Hoping to be able to provide this for others. I have 3 dogs of my own, one shelter rescue and 2 foster fails. Luna, Ole, and Birdie have been great foster siblings to foster dogs I have cared for also. I have a fenced yard with enough room to play. I also have a few spare bedrooms so will have the ability to separate dogs if that is needed however I prefer to dogsit those that are dog friendly due to already having a few in the home.
About: I am a cool and calm individual who can easily adapt to new energies and environments. I have cared for small, medium, and large dogs all with varying personalities, needs, and activities including Yorkshire Terriers, Blue Heelers, Labs, and Pitt Bulls. I can stay home with pets who'd rather curl up on the couch, go hiking with more active ones, or help dogs with anxiety feel safe. I can stick to schedules while reading a dog's changing needs. I have experience in healthcare, the service industry, and trauma-conscious yoga which aids in my ability to respond to stressful or complicated situations with efficiency, grace, and compassion. I can easily connect with animals. Through mutual respect and appreciation, I have formed a genuine bond with all of the dogs I have cared for. I have a very flexible schedule. Day time is usually open. I work multiple part time jobs at night but can schedule around those times. I can walk, let-out, play, or stay with dogs. I feel comfortable caring for multiple pets. I do well with leashing and crating. I can administer medications. I will adhere to eating and potty schedules. I will communicate efficiently with dog-owners.
“Taylor is amazing! She was incredibly professional and communicative, giving timely updates and regularly sending pictures of our very happy cats. She went above and beyond to accommodate us during a storm-extended vacation and we couldn't have been happier with the care she provided. Part of me doesn't want to give this rave review because I don't want other people to have her booked during our future vacations, but alas, she really deserves it! 10/10, would book Taylor again.”
About: As an avid walker in ALL types of weather, there’s nothing better than bringing a dog (or two) along! ! Also, as the owner of a farm for 24 years with dogs, cats, horses, chickens, and tons of living plants, as well as the mother of a 16-year-old, and the owner of my own businesses, Care is one of my superpowers 😉! I’m a full-time grad student in an online program so I have lots of time to hang out with your pets while I study. I also have a lot of freedom and flexibility in my schedule at this time so I can shift and change things as necessary. I love snuggling with animals, and sleeping with them if that’s what they love too. I’ve also been a house sitter for years for friends and family, and they always ask me back.
“Stef is always very helpful when we need someone to watch our pets! She is easy to communicate with and fast to respond. She always sends us videos or pictures during her visits. We've booked with her multiple times! She's even gone above and beyond doing other things while she's here for her visits (grab mail etc) Thank you Stef!”
About: I combine a passion for animals with specialized skills, ensuring your pets are in the best hands. I have extensive experience in dog training, so I can help reinforce good behavior while providing a fun and engaging experience. For senior dogs, I offer gentle, compassionate care, attentive to their unique needs. With me, your pet gets more than just a walk—they get personalized attention and a new friend. I have a lot of free time this summer and I'm looking to stay busy before I begin law school in August and what better way to keep busy than with fur babies. I take your dog on engaging walks tailored to their energy level and needs. Whether it's a leisurely stroll or a more active jaunt, I ensure they get the exercise and stimulation they need while maintaining their safety. When visiting your home, I provide feeding, water refills, playtime, and plenty of affection. I also check that everything is secure and clean up after your pets to maintain a tidy space.
“Marya was very sweet with our dogs and made sure that they were taken care of while we were out of town for the day. Our dog Roscoe is sometimes nervous with new people dropping in when we’re gone so Marya came to meet them the day before. We really appreciated knowing they were well taken care of via updates, it allowed us to enjoy visiting family and not have to worry.”
The median cost per visit for dog sitting in Duluth is $20

Courtnie is incredible! She cared for our dogs, one of which is a fairly recent rescue. She made such progress her. No one has ever been able to get close with her other than Courtnie. Courtnie gave us peace of mind. She is reliable knowledgeable, and caring. She is also clearly talented with training dogs and truly an animal lover. We have already rebooked with her and can’t wait to connect her with our pups again. Thank you Courtnie!
Peter and Barbara were great to work with. They were very communicative. Peter did a meet and greet with our dog the day before the scheduled service. He was kind and friendly. The day of the service, he provided photos and updates about how Benny was doing. He went above and beyond caring for our boy!
Sav really made sure we were at ease while she did a couple of drop ins for our dogs. She updated us along the way and made sure to note that our dogs medication was administered properly as well. You can tell she really cares for animals and is great with them!
This was our first time having anyone watch our dog. He’s terrified of everyone. We have not had him at a kennel either, so we were a bit nervous. Our dog was friendly with Cassie right when she came to meet him! She was great and we know our dog was well cared for. We will definitely hire her again!
Raelin is fantastic! Super swift response to every and any questions, excellent with my shy and under socialized 1.5 year old grump of a puppy, and gentle with my little old man. I could tell her approach was kind and careful--both pups responded very well to her and I felt very confident leaving my little ones and my home under her care. She even asked about feeding my tank full of state-fair goldfish, and was kind enough to 'put them to bed' by flipping off their light! She comes with my highest recommendation. Thanks so very much for helping us take a MUCH-NEEDED vacation, Raelin!

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Duluth stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills.

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 Duluth 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 .

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 Duluth with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
