“I had a wonderful experience with Leticia! She was absolutely amazing, attentive, and caring throughout the entire visit. She went above and beyond to make my cat feel comfortable, taking the time to stay with her and help her feel at ease. She kept me updated throughout the day with regular texts, pictures, and progress, which gave me great peace of mind. She carefully followed all the instructions I provided and completed everything on time without needing any reminders. I felt completely comfortable and confident knowing my cat was in such good hands. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, responsible, and genuinely caring pet sitter. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of my cat!”
“Ruthie was great! She came to our home to meet Moses and stayed with him for a weekend. Moses is a large golden with endless energy so we feel blessed that Ruthie was up for the gig and she sent photos and updates which was great! Highly recommend”
“Olivia went above and beyond this week! She extended her stay when my plans changed because of weather and was very flexible with her schedule. She also did some housekeeping tasks that helped me out when I was away, I appreciate her willingness to take care of them for me!”
“Kelsey stayed with my anxious furbaby over the weekend and it went great! She provided daily updates and photos that totally eased any worry! It was comforting to know that my pup was well cared for while I was gone- I will for sure have Kelsey stay again in the future!”
About: I walk dogs usually 3 or 4 times a day. Sometimes even 5! Depending on their age, fitness level, health etc! They absolutely love being outside rest assure your dog will not be lying around all day unless that is something you would like me to do! Also I have a fantastic dog park here! The dogs can exercise at their own pace! It's usually empty but the dogs love it! Also I have a great walking path outside! One thing I provide that other sitters don't is 24/7 companionship! The dogs and I get really attached to each other and we rarely leave each others side! I like to stay home I live alone and when we are not out 99% of the time we are together! I'm sure most of the sitters don't take the time to spend with your dog the way that I do! I'm excellent at communicating with Pictures, Text, and Details if that's your preference! I'm 60 years old and retired this is all I do! I can only handle a certain amount of dogs per month! I am a walker I walk well over 60 miles a month! I'm in a great neighborhood right around the block from the Eagan Outlets Stores! Thank you very much for your consideration. I am retired and this is my only job so I am available 24/7. I have 4 great walking paths outside without barely leaving the block. Very little traffic great neighborhood right by the Eagan Outlets Stores. As far as safety and environment I have a 300,000.00 insurance policy for all of our protection. I live in a excellent neighborhood right by the Eagan Outlets Stores.
“Meghan was very responsive and shared updates with us while she stayed with our dog. Even through the overnight storms, our dog seemed comforted with her being there for him. We look forward to having Meghan back again.”
About: Hi, I'm Bryanna! Animals have always been at the heart of my life. My journey into the pet world began through my day job, where I work with a company dedicated to supporting positive reinforcement (R+) pet professionals. Through that work, I've learned from some of the best trainers and behavior consultants in the industry, and it's shaped how I care for every animal I meet. My philosophy is simple: I will never use force, fear, intimidation, or pain. Every animal deserves to be treated with patience, compassion, and respect. I believe trust is something we earn—not demand. My greatest teacher was my late dog, Alfie. He battled a serious autoimmune disease (ITP), and caring for him taught me how to confidently administer medications, recognize subtle changes in health and behavior, and stay calm through medical challenges. More than anything, it gave me a deep appreciation for the trust it takes to leave a beloved companion in someone else's care. I've also shared my life with reactive dogs, so I understand that every animal has different comfort levels, communication styles, and needs. Whether your companion is outgoing, shy, anxious, elderly, energetic, or requires a little extra patience, I'm happy to meet them exactly where they are—without judgment or unrealistic expectations. At home, I'm now happily ruled by cats, who remind me every day that every animal is an individual with their own personality, preferences, and boundaries. **And if you're a fellow multi-pet parent, I get it! Those "just one more pet" fees can add up quickly. That's why I offer a very low rate for additional pets—because I know your whole crew deserves great care without the price tag piling up for every extra set of paws.** When you trust me with your companion, my goal is simple: to provide the same thoughtful, compassionate care I'd want for my own. I'll care for them as the unique individuals they are, so you can enjoy peace of mind while you're away. I work full-time from home Thursday - Monday, so my pet care schedule is built around providing dependable visits before and after work, with evenings (after 4:00 PM) being my most flexible availability. Many weekdays also offer some flexibility for midday visits when planned in advance. My weekends fall on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, which means I'm often available for additional visits, longer drop-ins, meet-and-greets, or last-minute requests on those days. I'm committed to being reliable, communicative, and upfront about my availability. If your pet has a specific routine or timing needs, just let me know—I'll always do my best to accommodate them and will be honest if I'm not the right fit. My goal is to provide care that's consistent, dependable, and tailored to your pet's needs. When I'm caring for your pet in your home, my goal is to keep their routine feeling as normal as possible. I'll follow your care instructions closely—from meals and medications to playtime, enrichment, litter box care, or simply spending quiet time together if that's what your companion prefers. I believe every pet is an individual, so I let them set the pace. Whether they're outgoing and ready to play or prefer to observe me from across the room for a while, I'll respect their boundaries and earn their trust through patience and positive interactions. You'll receive regular updates with photos and notes so you always know how your pet is doing. If I notice anything out of the ordinary, I'll let you know right away. My goal is for you to enjoy your time away knowing your pet is safe, comfortable, and cared for as if they were my own. I'll also treat your home with the same respect I would expect for mine—keeping things clean, secure, and exactly as you left them.
“Kept in touch. Sent photos. Replied to messages timely. Friendly. Their little girl loves dogs. She was very excited to stay with them. House was clean, Washed sheets and made bed before we returned.”
“Christine was very good with our 2 dogs and cat. While staying in our home, she left it clean and cared for it as if it were her own. Definitely will call again.”
“Allison did a great job watching my dog. I used her for 8 days to watch my dog at my house. I have a 2 year old rescue mixed terrier with high energy and Allison was a trooper handling him. She gave him multiple walks and played with him to release his energy. She also left my house in great shape, including washing bedding and towels she had used. She even watered my flowers and brought my mail in. I would highly recommend using Allison for any of your pets needs. Great job Allison!”
“Madeline was wonderful during her weekend overnight stay with our two cats, Finn and Ryah. Both cats, especially our kitten, seemed to adjust really well while we were away. Madeline was great about keeping up with their usual routines and made sure to send us updates and pictures, which gave us peace of mind knowing they were doing well. We really appreciated how attentive and caring she was, and I would definitely book with her again!”
“Hannah was great! She was very good with the pups, sent us updates and pictures throughout her stay with them and made us feel comfortable that the dogs were safe. When we got home, there was a nice note on the table, which gave us all that took place throughout her time with Alex and Magie. She even gave some college advice to our daughter. So very thoughtful!”
“Stephanie is amazing! She was very sweet and good with Rylee. She sent plenty of pictures and kept us updated. Definitely will keep asking for her again! Thanks!!”
“Emily was amazing! She kept us updated with texts and photos throughout our trip. She even left us a little card and polaroid of our pup for our return! She went above and beyond - could not recommend her more.”
“We had such a great experience with Rachel! She stayed overnight with our dogs while we were on vacation, and we couldn’t have asked for better care. From the moment we left, we felt completely at ease knowing they were in such kind and capable hands. Rachel was incredibly attentive, loving, and patient with both of our pups. It was clear she truly cares about animals and treats them like her own. She kept us updated, made sure they were comfortable, and gave them plenty of attention and affection. We came home to two very happy dogs and a house just as we left it! We would absolutely trust Rachel again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring sitter!”
“Julia was able to stay with our dog for a week and we felt so comfortable with him under her care. She gives him so much attention and care. She communicates well with updates and photos and responds if we need something extra done. We love having her stay at our house while we are away.”
“Sarah was great! We’ve had a couple of people watch our pets recently, but I don’t think the pets liked any of them as much. Great updates, lots of pictures. Absolutely would have her watch them again.”

Thank you for taking such wonderful care of my cat!
Heather provided the utmost care for my two dogs, one of whom needs a little extra care at mealtime. She readily communicated throughout the day with photos and updates, and she was very responsible and professional. I can't thank Heather enough for giving me peace of mind while I was away, and I will gladly outreach her for support in the future! Thank you, Heather!
Meghan was so flexible and wonderful with Norman. He immediately was ready to snuggle and cuddle with her all weekend and I know she loved him up! Meghan also was so kind and made sure I came home to a clean house and clean bedding. Norman looks forward to the next time!
We had a wonderful experience with Aurora! She was reliable and caring. Our pets were happy and well cared for, and we really appreciated the regular updates. We came home to everything in great shape and would happily have her sit for us again. Highly recommend!
Olivia was wonderful. She kept us updated regularly. Ernie sometimes seems sad even when we come back from being put of town but he was his joyful self when we got home this time because he had a great time with Olivia. The house was like she had never been there. We would love to have Olivia stay again!
Janet was absolutely amazing! She gave each of our dogs personalized care. She asked thoughtful questions and really listened. She took great care of our very old dog. She gave him his medicine and even got up with him at night with no complaints. One of the best dog sitters we've ever hired! Would absolutely have her watch our dogs again.

The average cost of House Sitting in Eagan is $44 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $28 and $78 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Eagan walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Eagan maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Eagan 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!
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.
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.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Eagan. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise
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.
