“Ava is excellent with our two dogs, taking care of them and house sitting. She is prompt, responsible, organized and compassionate. We are so fortunate to have found her—and I’m sure our dogs would agree!”
“I'm extremely pleased with having Kimberly T. house sit for my dog, Jay! Jay is an older golden retriever with special needs and Kimberly totally took care of him. I could tell he enjoyed her visits and would definitely have Kimberly house sit again. She made Jay happy and safe while I was away!”

“Alex was awesome! Our initial sitter had to cancel the night before we were heading out of town for a wedding. We were pretty desperate and he responded to our request to fill in quickly, was able to swing by our house in the morning to meet us and our dogs, and took great care of them when we were away. Would recommend him to others and will look to rebook in the future when needed!!”

“Sophie is the best dog sitter and sweetest person. She stayed with our dogs at our house while we went on vacation of a weekend. One of our dogs ended up getting sick while we were gone and she took amazing care of him, cleaned up after him, and gave us plenty of updates. We will definitely have her back!”

“Liz was so great! She went above and beyond just caring for our dogs. It is such a relief to know you can trust that your pets are in good hands. Even left us cupcakes for when we returned :) Thank you Liz!!!”

“Talia was so wonderful, taking the best care of our dog and our home while we were away. We received lots of picture updates and we were overall thrilled with her communication. We came home to a VERY happy and healthy pup, and a clean space. We will definitely be booking with Talia again!”

“Jacqueline took such great care of Nova And she was an excellent housesitter for the night. She has great communication and I look forward to asking her to care for Nova again!”

“My 2 dogs loved Peter! I appreciated all the pictures and videos and I could tell the dogs were having a great time! I wasn't worried or concerned about how they were being treated.”

“She was wonderful! Both pets were beyond happy with her and my house looked just like how I left. She did a great job sending updates and pictures. I will definitely book with her again!”


“Our 2nd time booking with Alexandra and things could not have gone any better! Our furry boys love her!! The house is in perfect order when we get home too. This time we were running a bit late coming home & she offered to come over one last time & feed them both so they didn't have to wait too far beyond their normal feeding time. So nice! She will be my forever sitter that is for sure.”

“Sydni did great with the pups! There was open communication, she took them on lots of walks and adventures, and sent us loads of pictures. Would recommend for others looking for care for their pups!”

About: I’ve been pet sitting on and off since I was about 12 years old, helping out friends and neighbors. I come from a family of dog lovers and have two dogs and two cats of my own back home. I'm currently a graduate student at the University of Minnesota Duluth and really miss spending time with my own pets. Pet sitting is the perfect way for me to enjoy some quality time with dogs and cats while also earning a bit of extra income. I'm typically busy Tuesday through Thursday, but I have availability on Mondays, Fridays, and Sundays, with flexible scheduling on those days I do a great job reminding dogs just how loved they are usually by telling them they're a good dog every few seconds! I also understand how important safety is, and I make it a priority to regularly check in on them to ensure they’re safe and comfortable. Of course, I also give them plenty of pets and attention whenever I can.
“Wow! Ashley went above and beyond in watching our pups this weekend! It was so nice to be able to travel without worrying whether our dogs were OK. Ashley gave them so much care and attention. I think our dogs had just as nice of a vacation as we did! Ashley was extremely considerate when staying in our house as well. Such a nice guest. We will definitely book with Ashley again in the future. Highly recommend.”

About: With over 10 years of professional dog training and 20+ years in animal care and herpetology, I bring a rare blend of scientific knowledge, hands-on experience, and genuine compassion to every animal I work with. I hold a B.S. in Biology with a minor in Wildlife Conservation and have worked on behavior teams at top-scale training facilities, specializing in: - Aggressive and reactive dogs - Fearful, shy, and trauma-affected pets - Confidence building and behavior modification - Basic and advanced obedience training My background in veterinary medicine and canine nutrition allows me to provide attentive care for pets with medical or dietary needs, including administering medications safely and accurately. Beyond dogs and cats (I share my home with two dogs and three cats), I also specialize in exotic animal care. As a professional herpetologist, I have decades of experience caring for reptiles, amphibians, and invertebrates, and understand the unique environmental and behavioral needs of these species. I’m calm, confident, and dedicated to creating safe, positive experiences for every animal—whether it’s a nervous rescue, a senior pet, or a curious critter. I currently co-own a reptile shop; this allows me to make my own schedule, which gives me the flexibility to have a wide range of availability. Just reach out and we can make something work. I don't mind early mornings or late nights. I provide care exclusively in your home, where pets feel safest and most comfortable. Keeping your pet in their familiar environment reduces stress and helps maintain trust and consistency in their daily routine.

I respect every client’s home and provide updates, photos, and honest communication so you can rest easy knowing your pets—furred, scaled, or feathered—are safe, understood, and cared for as if they were my own.
“Brooke did an amazing job taking care of our dog! She stayed at our house for two weeks and left it spotless, and she sent pictures of my girl every day and provided updates throughout the entire stay. We will definitely rebook with her!”

“This was our first time hiring outside help from Rover, so we were not sure what to expect. Zach was a great housesitter and took special care of our senior dog. We were able to enjoy our trip without worry, which is truly priceless. We would happily book Zach again in the future!”

“Stacie stayed in touch with us and helped us navigate a fluid situation with the city doing some construction in front of our house and in our basement. She came up with helpful options so our dog wouldn’t be frightened of all the noise. She sent pictures and videos which we very much appreciated. It was so helpful to have her with our pets and looking out for their best interest.”

“Autumn has stayed at my house and cared for my elderly dog and cat several times and she does a great job. The house is clean and orderly, the pets are happy and cared for. Thanks so much.”

Kirsten was a great fit to take care of my pooch while I was away. She provided 1-2 daily updates, along with photos to let me know how my dog was doing. I knew my pet was in great hands. Communication was easy and I will definitely utilize Kirsten again for any dog care needs!

We were in an emergent situation due to a pet sitter we hired was neglecting our girls, we had just started our vacation and in my search for a back up plan late at night and only 12 hrs into our vacation I found Aleeya. She was able to be super flexible and come to rescue our girls while we were gone. She is super easy to communicate with, she and Kyna took amazing care of the girls while we were gone, snuggling, belly rubs, walks, playing, outside time. They exceeded our expectations and I am so happy that I found them. I will use them again and going forward for our vacations. They even left us a note when we got home. Words cannot express how very appreciative and thankful my husband and I are to both Aleeya and Kyna and the amazing care they gave our girls while we were gone. We did not have to worry about our girls ever while they were in their care. We received pictures, videos, and/or updates daily, which we really liked.

Annika provided great care for my pups! She updated me with every check in and sent me photo updates. She reached out appropriately and asked great questions. She had great communication. I will definitely reach out to her for my next pup needs. Thank you Annika!

Anna did a fantastic job watching our senior dog for a week! She answered all my questions right away and gave updates throughout. I could tell our dog felt comfortable with Anna and knew she was in good, caring hands while we were gone. It was so so nice coming home to a calm and happy pup and a clean house. I would definitely recommend Anna and would rebook anytime!

Laken's care of Barley was outstanding, as well as her communication prior, post and during her time with him in our home. She provided daily updates via messages and photos, showing that he was well exercised and well loved on! Her kind conscientiousness was obvious. It was blessing knowing that he was in such good care while we were away. She also did a few extra house-related tasks, which we so appreciated and she left our home very tidy and clean. We will most definitely ask her to care for Barley again in the future!
Ashley was wonderful! Our dog has some health issues and requires a bit of extra care. We were able to take a weekend away knowing our pup was well-cared for with Ashley. She sent us pictures and videos each day and we came home to a very happy dog. We’ll definitely call Ashley again for future dog-sitting needs!

New 1st timers to Rover & we were nervous leaving our 2 Vizslas w/ a stranger in our home. But Jen-Li was responsive, reliable, kind, and came to our meet & greet on time & we felt good about the visit. Rover gave us peace of mind w/ the policies & messages thru Rover site worked smoothly. Did not receive daily photos/updates until I requested but from then on it was great! So glad we had Jen-Li here and would recommend her and use her again. 👍

Such a sweet gal and my boys love her. She is very quick with her response, took great care of the boys and treated our home like her own was an added bonus. Will be definitely using her again. She ended up with a bonus dog because our friend couldn’t find anyone and it worked out great.
