About: Experience raising a puppy. I cater to pups of all sizes and energy levels. My dog is not in a crate but we did crate train him I have a flexible work schedule that allows me to work from home most days. I anm available for potty breaks, walks, snuggles, or playing fetch. I have a large, unfenced yard but I do have a long lead we can use if necessary. I can use a crate if your dog is crate trained. I’m familiar to and accommodating of specialty diets. Rico and I love walks and running at the dog park down the road!
About: Even though my dog is the first dog I raised, my uncle has had dogs since I could remember. I would play with his dogs all the time. I have also looked after an 8 week old puppy for a few days and then traveled with the puppy from MN to OH. I am currently in graduate school and would be offering services on my breaks. So I will be available for your pet at any point of the day. I take my own dog on walks and/or to the dog park on a daily. There is a big lake near me where my dog (and my neighbors’ dogs) love to walk by. I also have a big yard that my dog loves to sniff and run around in. My dog is very dog friendly and able to play with dogs of all sizes and loves to play with them. I have a very big fenced yard and a very friendly lab, who would keep your fur baby company. I can also crate if needed.
About: I've grown up with both dogs and cats, so I've been around pets my entire life and have experience with a variety of personalities, energy levels, and behaviors. Caring for animals has always been a part of my daily life, and I've learned how important patience, consistency, and attention are to keeping pets happy and comfortable. I've also pet sat for friends and family on multiple occasions, and they continue to rely on me to care for their pets when they're away. Whether it's feeding, walking, playing, or simply keeping them company, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I also have a dog named Maylo, who has taught me even more about the responsibility and commitment that comes with being a pet owner. I understand how much pets mean to their families, and my goal is always to provide loving, dependable care so owners can have peace of mind while they're away. I currently work from home and have a flexible schedule during some days! I do have work and classes during certain parts of the week, but outside of those scheduled commitments, I’m generally available and happy to accommodate your pets’ routine as much as I can. I’ll always communicate my availability clearly beforehand and make sure your pups get plenty of attention, care, and companionship while you’re away! :) I do not offer my home as a stay because I currently have a dog, and he doesn’t get along with other dogs but I’m happy to stay at the owners home! I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved from the moment I arrive to their house, I understand that’s THEIR space and I’m a guest. I take care of them just like I would like my little Maylo (my dog) to be taken care of. I follow each pet's normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special instructions their owner provides. I know that every pet is different, so I take the time to understand their personality and needs. Whether your pet enjoys being active or prefers to cuddle and relax, I'll make sure they receive the care and affection they deserve while you're away.
“Jenn did a great job of handling a challenging situation with one of my cats while I was away. Her clear communication and photos were so helpful. I appreciate her understanding, capable, and confident care of my cats. Thanks again Jenn!”

About: Pets make life better! They are family. If they behave well, they should be spoiled! I have always had dogs. I grew with up with dogs and now I have my own. I have never owned a cat because my mom is allergic, but I really enjoy them! I care for my friends two cats frequently. I love caring for, playing, and walking animals! I love getting outside to walk. I also love playing fetch and tug of war. I also enjoy playing with feather or ribbon cat toys! I am good with any age animal. They all need love and attention! My dog is 2, so I have been through the puppy stage recently. He has a lot of energy so I know how much exercise dogs need.

About: I grew up with dogs, lizards and cats and even hamsters, bearded dragons and birds. I know how to take care of a variety of animals. I am a lover of all animals! I have a full time job but I am free in the evenings, weekends, and I work remote during the day Monday and Friday to take care of animals. In my personal life, I feed my cat in the morning and night, clean her litter box every other day and play with her daily. I will follow the instructions given and make sure I am aware of the expectations going into the clients home. I am a very responsible and accountable person.

“Kristen is INCREDIBLE with both our cat and dog! It’s rare to find a sitter that works so well with both so we always feel so lucky when we’re able to book Kristen as our sitter.”
“Our dogs loved Sophia and she gave them lots of fun attention and kept to their schedules. She also communicated with us very well. We were confident our pups were in good hands”

About: Welcome! Hi! I'm Laura, and I'd love to care for your dog like they're part of the family. My home features a large, fully fenced backyard, giving dogs plenty of room to run, play, sniff, and burn off energy in a safe environment. Your pup will also have the opportunity to socialize with my two friendly Old English Sheepdogs. I believe every dog deserves individual attention, plenty of playtime, and lots of affection. Whether your dog is energetic and playful or prefers a quiet place to relax, I'll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved during their stay. Meet My Dogs 🐾 Remy (5 years old) Remy is my energetic male Old English Sheepdog. He absolutely loves meeting new people and dogs! During introductions he can get very excited, which means he may bark and pull on the leash at first. Once he's had a chance to say hello, he settles down nicely and is eager to make a new friend. 🐾 Sylvie (8 years old) Sylvie is my sweet female Old English Sheepdog who loves people. She can sometimes experience a little social anxiety when meeting unfamiliar dogs, so I always make introductions carefully. She is also afraid of children (we're actively working on building her confidence), so I ask that children give her plenty of respectful space during meet and greets. Meet & Greets I highly recommend scheduling a meet and greet before your dog's first stay. This gives everyone a chance to get acquainted, ensures your dog is comfortable with my home and dogs, and helps make the boarding experience as stress-free as possible. A note about independence: I love spending time with my guest dogs and giving them plenty of affection, playtime, and attention throughout their stay. However, I’m best suited for dogs who can also settle and relax independently. I work from home and need to be able to sleep, work, cook, and take care of things around the house without a dog continuously demanding attention, whining, barking for attention, pawing at me, or needing to follow me from room to room at all times. If your dog is a “Velcro dog” who becomes distressed or persistently vocal when they aren’t receiving direct attention, my home probably won’t be the best fit. Dogs should be comfortable relaxing on their own for periods of time while I’m elsewhere in the house. Of course, they’ll still receive lots of love and attention throughout their stay. I just need my four-legged guests to understand that sometimes it’s independent relaxation time. Late Drop-off & Pick-up Policy: A 30-minute grace period is provided. Drop-offs or pick-ups more than 30 minutes after the scheduled time will incur a $25 late fee for each hour or portion of an hour. Please notify me as soon as possible if you're running late. Optional Grooming & Care Add-Ons If you'd like your pup to go home looking and feeling their best, I also offer these optional services: - Nail grinding: $20 per dog - Bath: Starting at $30 (price varies by coat size and length) - Teeth brushing: $10 - Ear cleaning: $15 - Dematting & brushing: $30 per hour (for heavily matted or thick-coated dogs; time varies depending on coat condition) If you have any questions about my home, my dogs, or your dog's stay, feel free to reach out. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member! I recently got laid off. While I am actively job hunting, I will be at home regularly and can provide frequent care and potty breaks. I have a fenced-in yard and a treasure chest of toys that I can use to play with the dogs. If they're clean, then they're allowed on the furniture. If not, then they'll need to be washed in the downstairs tub.

About: Ive taken care of many family friends Dogs over the past 2 years. This has involved staying the night, going on walks, feeding meals, properly managing medications, playing fetch, keeping the house clean, and of course lots of cuddles! I have cared for small dogs as well as larger dogs such as golden retrievers and labs. I also have a beautiful Siamese cat named Romeo, so I have lots of experience taking care of cats as well! I am currently a senior attending the University of Minnesota Twin Cities, but I am commuting from home which is about 20 minutes south of Minneapolis. Im on campus until about 2 pm on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays. Other than that I am available to work! For care including simple walks or potty breaks, I would only need about a 24 hour notice. For overnight stays I would prefer a 1-2 week notice so I can plan accordingly! For caring for your pets in your home, I will prioritize what you feel comfortable with whether thats me keeping a constant eye on your pet while they use the bathroom/play in the yard or making sure your pets don't enter certain rooms. I will also make sure your pets have a clean, comfortable space and that any specific instructions you provide are followed carefully!

“Cassidy came over to feed our dogs and spend some time with them while we were out for the afternoon and night at a wedding. She fed them, let them out, and hung out while they played. Having her come by allowed us to enjoy the evening without worrying about getting home at a specific time.”

“Audrey was great and helped me out on a very last-minute request for care. Milton took to her immediately at the meet and greet. I appreciate that she spent more time with him on the 2nd check-in. Would definitely book her again!”

About: I have been a dog / cat sitter for my friends, family and neighbors since I was 13. My family had both dogs and cats in the house when I was growing up. I love spending time with animals and getting to know their unique personalities. I especially enjoy taking dogs for walks and playing with them outside to help expend their energy. I currently work from home in a corporate position. I have plenty of free time and would love to spend some of it taking care of animals. Typically, I am staying over at the client’s home for the duration of their trip / vacation. The client will often have me over to their home prior to their departure to meet the animal(s) and go over their needs and any other special requests they may have. It is very important to me that the client feels safe entrusting me to stay in their home and take care of their pets.
About: Hello👋🏽I’m a passionate dog lover and pet stylist at a doggie daycare, with 6+ years of experience leading playgroups and 3 years as a professional groomer. I’ve developed a deep understanding of dog behavior, body language, and individual needs.🐾 I currently have the sweetest babies, a 12 year old lab and 2 laid back cats. I grew up caring for our rescued beagles from an animal testing facility, which taught me how to support sensitive or nervous pups with patience and compassion. Through daycare and grooming, I’ve worked hands-on with all kinds of breeds, coat types, and personalities. I can’t wait to meet your furry friend and help them feel safe, happy, and loved! I also offer nail trims if your pup is comfortable with it.✂️ I also enjoy cleaning in my spare time, so I’d be happy to offer light housekeeping or general tidying if that’s something you’d find helpful.🫧 Pet care fits into my routine really naturally. I work as a groomer and often have shorter days starting at 8am, usually finishing around 2 or 3 PM, which gives me plenty of flexibility for pet sitting in the evenings. I’m also available most weekends for drop-ins and walks. I typically pet sit in the owner’s home, where pets feel most comfortable and secure. I always follow the owner’s instructions closely—every pet is different, and I do my best to stick to their usual routine, whether that’s feeding times, walks, play, medications, or just extra snuggles. I’m respectful of your home and treat it with care, just like I do with your pets!
About: What sets me apart is the genuine care I bring to every pet. I’ve had my cat for 8 years and have cared for family dogs, giving me experience with different personalities, routines, and needs. I’m patient, attentive, dependable, and I’ll treat your pets with the same love and attention I’d want for my own.

About: I love to care for dogs of all ages! I’ve had dogs my whole life and my family calls me a “dog whisperer” because animals are always attracted to my calm demeanor I work full time as a chiropractor. My main availability is Tuesdays (all day), Friday afternoons and weekends. Also occasional week day evenings after 6pm. Happy to walk your dog wherever they like best! I also frequent many trails in the area and love to bring them there for something to see.

“Joy is fantastic. One of my pets is very sociable while the other gets scared pretty easily. Joy does a great job of giving both of them quality time, even if it means talking to the shy one hiding under the bed. I’d strongly recommend Joy.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Eden Prairie
Hannah was fantastic with our large doodle mix. She was very flexible with our changing schedules and took so many cute pictures of are dog while we were away. She also had great solutions for us when we were nervous our dog would keep trying to escape his crate. Overall great experience.

Kristina is absolutely wonderful! She went above and beyond caring for our pets. Our bird, fish, and dog take a lot of time and care throughout the day. I was so relieved to find someone who has experience and knowledge with birds. She also took time to meet the needs of my elderly mom by conversation or small little tasks to assist her. Don't hesitate to book her, she listens to small details. Loved having her and plan to rebook again.

Lindsay is a knowledgeable, attentive and conscientious dog sitter. She communicated as needed and included pictures with each visit. I got maps of her walks and report cards for each visit. Our dogs were clearly relaxed and well cared for. We’ll def be booking again!

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.
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 Eden Prairie 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.

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 .
