About: From St Bernards to Yorkies we have sat for a wide variety of pets. Our family, including Banjo the Beagle would love to host your pup. We are conveniently situated in The Lincoln Park Craft District- 2 blocks away from the trail and daily trail walks are an important part of our routine. My daily routine consists of 2 miles of dog walking- at least. As a teacher I am off in the summer, so I have lots of time to spend with your pup. During the school year I work nearby by and could cruise home for a midday potty break at lunch-as needed. I have a very social 4 year old dog to keep your pet entertained. I live very near excellent dog walking trails. If you have a social dog we love dog park trips.
About: Hi there! My name is Olivia but I go by Liv for short. For the past 5 years I have taken care of and housesat animals including cats, puppies, mature dogs and senior dogs. In addition to this, I am also a runner. I am able to take your high energy pups on runs if that’s something you’re interested in! I have two cats myself and they are the best. I wouldn’t say I’m either a cat or dog person because of how much love I hold for the both of them. I grew up with two big friendly dogs, they were the best. I’d love the opportunity to meet new furry friends and their owners along the way! I’m currently a full time student at Lake Superior College and I live around East End Duluth. Taking care of pets falls into my daily routine! Between my lovely kitties and friends pets. I am respectful of one’s home. Taking care of your pet is my priority and nothing else. If roles were swapped I would want a pet caretaker/sitter to be respectful and communicative. So, that is an atmosphere I’m looking to provide to clients.
“Kate is wonderful! This was my first time using Rover and a pet sitter. I have always relied on friends or a family member to check on our cats. Kate was very responsive throughout the whole process and made me feel at ease. She sent comprehensive updates on her visits and pics. I highly recommend her and will absolutely book again when we need a sitter!”

I’m very grateful to her and highly recommend booking her. I will definitely book again. Thanks so much Alexandra.”
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.
“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: 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: I specialize in large dog breeds as I have 1 Pyrenees and 1 golden retriever myself. They are both very well trained and certified ESA’s. I don’t have any special skills such as pet training, just really good with dogs. I am a full time nurse and I’m off every other week. I would love to take/walk dogs on my weeks off. I have always had a dog in my family. I’d love to hang out with your furry friends! I have two big loving dogs to keep yours company. We will spend a lot of time outside hiking and going for walks! If your pet is not staying at my house we will still have fun going for runs, walks, or being outside.
About: I've grown up with dogs ever since I can remember, though I only lived with one in my teens! I helped care for him through the last of his late years up until he passed, so I also have experience with caring for seniors and those with mobility issues. I've also had experience caring for multiple cats at a time for 4 years. If they're furry, I'll most definitely want to pet them! I currently work full time at a cafe with flexible hours, so if you are in need of an extra early or extra late drop-in, I'll be able to help out there! I can also do mid-day check-ins as well. As long as I get a good amount of time as a head's up, I'll be able to drop in at any time! I am super respectful of others' rules when it comes to their pet care. I am coming into their space, after all. Making sure I leave the home tidy after a play session is important as well!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Duluth
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!
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!

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
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. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
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 .
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 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.
