“We absolutely loved Talia! She was able to help us out last minute when our last sitter fell through and gave us such relief with her updates and pictures. When we got home from our trip, we could tell that our pets were so happy and well cared for! :)”
About: I have 30 years of experience caring for animals and have fostered, cared for, and adopted dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities, from rambunctious puppies and shy, skittish rescues to sweet seniors. My rescue experience has taught me that every pet is different, and I’m comfortable adjusting my approach to help them feel safe and comfortable. I also have experience caring for cats and kittens and understand that they often prefer attention on their own terms. Whether your pet loves playtime, long walks, belly rubs, or simply having someone nearby, I’m happy to follow their lead and routine. I have a flexible schedule and plenty of availability for walks and drop-in visits throughout the day. I understand how important consistency and routine are for pets, so I’ll do my best to keep meals, walks, medications, potty breaks, and visits on their normal schedule. My flexibility also allows me to give each pet the time, attention, and care they deserve. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priority. I carefully follow your instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications, treats, household rules, and routines. Years of fostering and working with rescue dogs have made me especially mindful of shy or fearful pets, door-dashers, escape risks, and animals who need extra patience when meeting someone new. I never force interaction and allow pets the time and space they need to become comfortable with me. I’m also happy to send photos and updates during each visit so you can relax knowing your pets are safe, happy, and being well cared for.
“Courtnie did a great job taking care of our 2 cats! She was timely in her drop in visits and provided pictures and a thorough overview in the report cards. We would gladly have her watch our cats again!”
“Jamie was able to take care of our kitties with last-minute notice, and they were happy campers when we got back! She was responsive and sent us daily updates. Will definitely book with her again!”
“Emma was so wonderful with my two cats - and with me, the anxious cat-mom who hates leaving them behind when she goes anywhere! I booked Emma last-minute for a weekend trip and she still made time to stop by beforehand to meet them and see where everything was…she was flexible with visit times and and uploaded great visit pictures that eased my separation angst :) I will 100% be booking Emma again for any pet-sitting needs!”
About: I’ve been taking care and walking a lot of dogs since elementary school and know a lot about pets body language and how they work. Pet care fits into my schedule on the days that i’m off work from my part time job, message me and see what days you need me for and i’ll make it work for you! I know a lot about body language and how to read the signs of what they’re feeling meaning that I can give them what they need in the moment. Following instructions to best take care of your furry friend.
“Excellent service, Sav sent updates for Mimmie and was precise and punctual and cordial - was timely in response and flexible.. was very kind and gentle to Mimmie : will definitely use her service again. one of the best we ever had on Rover as we have used the service many times for vacation. Randy A.”
“Kimberly is the best cat sitter I have come across! My cat (Leroy) absolutely loves when she comes to visit and I feel great knowing that I can travel and leave Leroy in great hands. No amount of snow or unplowed roads stops Kimberly from dropping by and taking adorable pictures of Leroy to share. Kimberly is reliable, caring and respectful and I will definitely be booking with her in the future”
About: Hi my names Eva, I have lived with dogs my entire life (mainly German Shepherds). I regularly go hiking, and I walk at least 4 miles everyday.

In between classes and on days I have off I will be able to stop by to take care of your pets and walk them. I can come over to let dogs out to go to the bathroom, feed them, simple check in, and walk them. I am dedicated to fitting you and your pets needs.
“Hannah did a great job coming over to take care of our dog twice a day while we were out of town. Even though he can't go on long walks, she stuck around after their short walk to throw the ball and sit on the deck with him. He was a very happy and content pup. We'd definitely hire her again!”
About: I have grown up around animals. I have helped take care of my family dog for many years. I also have experience pet sitting for many family members and neighbors.

“ashley did such a good job!!! she watched wilson during my 13 hour shift and gave me so much peace of mind. she sent plenty of updates and pictures!!! i felt so confident that his needs were met and came home to a very happy puppy”
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.
“Peter was an excellent choice for caring for our cat Finn. He communicated daily with videos+fun pictures. Because our cat goes outside a few hours per day. Peter kindly let him out and back in. I really appreciated having a responsible caregiver for our furry family member!!”
“Nicole was great! Communicative, shared lots of pictures from the check in, and even went the extra mile to keep an eye on and water started plants for our garden. We will definitely book 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.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Duluth
Courtnie was fantastic once again! Our pups do better with her than with us I think! She truly understands the nurturing and patience it takes with our little rescue. Our Chiwie has been in the United States less than a year and is so comfortable at home now that she works at everyone who comes to the house. Courtnie is the only one she does not bark at other than us! Truly remarkable! We are so thankful for her! She goes above and beyond. In addition to our rescue our senior pup takes a bit of extra care. We we were so very grateful and could relax, knowing our babies were well taken care for. We cannot say enough about how amazing Courtnie is!
Excellent service, Sav sent updates for Mimmie and was precise and punctual and cordial - was timely in response and flexible.. was very kind and gentle to Mimmie : will definitely use her service again. one of the best we ever had on Rover as we have used the service many times for vacation. Randy A.
This is the second time I’ve booked Nelle to watch my cats. She does a great job making sure the boys are fed, watered and have clean litter boxes. My anxious cat needs meds twice a day so knowing Nelle is on top of that is such a relief. He may not accept any pets from her, but my other cat loves to sit with her and get some attention while I’m away. I will definitely book with Nelle in the future.

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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.

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