“Perla did a great job looking after our 2 cats while we were away on vacation for 11 days. She took time to send us photos every day and took great care of keeping up on their food/water/litterbox. Our cats are normally very shy and took to her immediately, I will 100% use her services in the future 😊”
“Elizabeth was amazing!! Was very communicative, showed up on time and left an in depth review with LOTS of photos. Would absolutely use her again and will plan on it in the future. My super shy rescue even walked up which she never does with new people.”
“Adrianna has done one extended stay and one drop in with our 3 dogs- plus our foster dog. We do not have easy dogs. She has been great. Definitely understands how to work with dogs of different temperaments. She is quick to respond and has always followed through and been on time.”
“Heather did absolutely amazing with my pups! I am always nervous about having new people around my pups, but Heather connected with them really well and it was obvious she cared for them. Highly recommend!”
About: I have helped take care of dogs and cats since high school. I have helped with pets of all ages, including senior pets. I'm happy to be active with pets and walk and play with dogs. I also work full-time and will be mostly available on weekends. I do work from home as much as I can and can be flexible with that some of the time. I can take care of small dogs in my own home. Typically, I take care of pets at clients' homes and am open to any instructions needed to do so.
About: Dogs have always been my passion, I love caring for my dogs and others!! I have experience with puppies, geriatrics and special needs. I currently have 3 dogs of my own who are very friendly with other dogs. If interested and want play dates and socialization with other dogs I will bring your dog to my large fenced in back yard to play! I am currently in the medical field and have always loved to care for people and animals! I have experience with dogs who are injured and need that extra special care or give medications. Those who have young puppies I am willing to help train with the basics, I have lots of experience teaching dogs, I am currently in agility with my 2 year old border collie. I am currently working full time I am off at 6:15 Monday and Tuesday and off at 3:15 Wednesday’s and Thursday’s and I don’t work Friday and weekends. I am able to come on evenings if need be I have a fully fenced yard and 2 extremely friendly dogs myself to play or keep your fur baby company. If more comfortable I have a crate. I love to play with the animals , walk and give cuddles!
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 absolutely fantastic dog park here. What's great is it's usually empty and the dogs can exercise at their own pace. Also I have a great walking path outside my complex and my neighborhood is perfect for dogs we could walk almost 2 miles without barely leaving the block. 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.
“Felicia and Steven are a must to watch your dogs! They are professional and great at communicating with each drop-in. They took fantastic care of my dog—even when he wouldn’t eat, they sat with him until he did! Can’t wait to have them watch my pup again! Thank you Felicia and Steven!”
“Sammy took care of our two cats as if they were her own and it is clear that both of our cats enjoyed her company, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. Sammy is extremely friendly, trustworthy, and it’s obvious she is a huge animal lover. During our meet and greet, Sammy sat down on the floor to be at our cat’s level and she connected with our 2 cats very quickly. We will definitely book with her again. Thank you SO much for taking such great care of our cats, Sammy!!”
About: I have 2 dogs and 3 cats so I am extremely experienced caring and loving for furbabies! I would love nothing more than to come give your babies love while you take a much needed vacation or weekend trip. I promise to love and care for them like they are my own furbabies for whatever needs they may have! I currently work full time but I have a lot of flexibility. Some days I may not be able to do a mid day visit but I can guarantee visits before 8AM and no later than 5:30PM during the week with all the flexibility on the weekends! I have 5 furbabies and anyone in my life would tell you that animals are a genuine love of mine. I loved animals so much even as a small child I convinced my dog preferring dad to let me to get a cat when I was 8 because I was so persistent. My entire life I’ve been loving and caring for animals and there’s nothing that gives me more joy than animals!
About: During this time for meet and greets I will only be doing them outside my home. I will not be having anyone come indoors. I’m sorry for any inconvenience this may cause. I work full time at a nursing home and do this part time !! I have had dogs in my life for a very long time since I was a little kid. We have had many dogs around while I was growing up and many breeds. Currently I have a 4 year old golden retriever and a 9 year old shorkie that live with me now. I love going on walks and runs with them and going to the park. My son also comes with us he is 16 months old right now and loves dogs also. He really loves small ones and loves to run around with the big ones. I am also home all the time so I will be dedicated to helping you and your family and giving you guys the best service I possibly can. I am someone who loves to make everyone around me happy. I am very committed to taking care of your fur babies as my own and meeting all needs and expectations. I promise happy experiences for everyone ! And can’t wait too meet you and your fur baby!! I am home all the time so I am always outside with your fur babies or relaxing inside together! I am able to dedicate a lot of time to them Fully Fenced in yard all around! Whenever I let a dog out I am also outside with them to insure safety and to make sure they do not try and run away.
“Nicole is an awesome sitter! She is very professional, flexible with scheduling, and accommodates to my cats' needs! My family went on vacation for a month and Nicole checked on my cats Rescue and Shadow per the days we had discussed; she sent us an update and pictures of the cats after each check. It was a relief knowing the cats were getting checked on regularly and consistently. I am so glad I found Nicole on Rover!”
About: Growing up with two Labrador Retrievers and a Shih Tzu, I am well-versed in the needs and personalities of both large and small breeds. I worked at the home of someone who bred German Shepards for 2 years, caring for 10 dogs at a time and completing tasks such as bathing, walking, feeding, giving medicine, and cleaning up after. I also have multiple years of experience caring for friends & families pets. My priority is to ensure every dog feels safe, loved, and happy under my attentive watch. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or just some extra cuddles, your dog will be treated like one of my own. I’m currently working a few part time jobs, which gives a lot of flexibility with my schedule! I am more available in the morning and afternoon than the evening. I have experience caring for pets in friends and families homes as well as a job working with German shepards where I tended to the dogs at my employers home, and I treat each persons home & pets with the utmost respect. I recognize it is a lot to trust someone inside your home. I value communication during these times to ensure comfortability on both sides!
About: We have owned dogs for over 25 years, including one service dog, a beagle, for the hard of hearing. They are our family. Two Chocolate Labs are part of the mix too. I just recently retired and am looking for something to fill the void. Dogs have been a huge part of our lives for many years and they bring such joy and happiness to us. I have a 10 year old Chocolate Lab named Dakota and she is a gem. I have a large backyard, not fenced, but a long rope for when the dogs need to do their business. I am home full time so I will always be around for the dogs. My dog loves to play frisbee 😁
About: I’ve taken care of my friend’s and family’s dog(s) throughout the years. From overnight stays to short walks, I am able to provide these services effortlessly. I have had my cats for 4 years now and know how to handle their rambunctiousness and understand their needs. I wfh part of my days so I am able to do short walks or visits. On weekends I am typically free and will be available for other pet services if needed. If the pets do not get along with cats, I am able to provide a separate space for them where no interaction can occur. I am neat and tidy in my space and will respect client’s homes as if it were my own.
About: I have been watching dogs and cats from my neighborhood for around 9 years! I get along very well with animals and love spending time with them! After my 2 guinea pigs died, I really wanted to fill that space in my heart! Even while working, I make sure to find lots of time to spend with your pet so they never feel abandoned or lonely! Let me know! I would prefer watch your pet in your home so they're comfortable and relaxed! I am very go with the flow so I can accommodate to what your comfortable with as well!

We would definitely recommend Rachael for any future pet sitting needs! She was very professional and accommodated our last minute holiday request with flexibility too. She was consistent with our requested schedule and communicated well each visit. We would definitely plan to hire her again!
Olivia was great! It's our first time to use Rover, and we're glad we chose the right sitter. Our kitties loved her and one of them showed his belly which is his sign of approval! One of them vomited (which she cleaned up) and she came back that same night on her own initiative to check on them, which was very much appreciated.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Eagan is $19 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $28 per visit. 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. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 5,639 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Eagan. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 .
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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

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 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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
