“Brittney was simply incredible and made friends with my old kitten who absolutely will not allow any other person near him. I appreciated her clear and consistent communication. Truly recommend her and will request her services again myself!”

“Hannah was absolutely amazing at taking care of our dog while we were away. She was super respectful, responsive and attentive. Our guy is a foster and she went above and beyond to help and comfort him.”
“Olivia was amazing. She was able to take care of our pets on short notice and was able to accommodate a quick meet and greet as well. She shared regular updates and truly went the extra mile in caring for our dog. Fantastic job and I would recommend her to anyone that needs pet care.”
“Michelle took wonderful care of our senior dog who has some special needs. She was a great communicator, caring and made us feel so comfortable leaving our dog. I would definitely use her again!”
About: I’ve grown up with and loved dogs my whole life! Most of my experience has been with larger dogs, but I’ve also cared for plenty of smaller dogs through friends. I have experience caring for dogs of all ages, including dogs needing medication or a little extra attention. I’m comfortable with all sizes, ages, and personalities, and I’ll make sure they’re happy and healthy while you’re away! My schedule is currently pretty open, so whether you’d like a mid workday check in or a morning/ afternoon walk I’ll be there! Same goes for longer stays! Your pet’s safety and comfort is number 1! So I’ll follow your instructions and normal routine as closely as possible including meals, walks, medications, and any special care they need! I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages while you’re away!
“Emma brings the complete package when it comes to to dog care. Very reliable, responsive and great with our two larger dogs. She is very clean and respectful of our home. We arrived after 5 days away and couldn’t tell she was staying there the whole time. Our dogs loved her company, I would use her again for sure! A plus job Emma.”
“Brooke is amazing! We have a reactive dog that needs a few introductions before feeling comfortable with new people. Brooke took extra time with us and our pup to ensure everyone was comfortable for an overnight stay on our wedding day. She has such compassion for animals and I can’t recommend her enough!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Eden Prairie
Couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for our rescue pups! Brittney is one of a kind - truly so patient and amazing with dogs. It’s evident she knows how to handle all different personalities as we have one very anxious dog who does not warm to people easily. Brittney won our dog over in just one day and we felt at peace while we were away. She was very communicative and we got lots of fun pictures! We will absolutely be using Brittney again ☺️
We hired Nicole to watch our two pups while we were out of town for our daughter’s wedding. Nicole was very communicative and reliable. On the wedding day, I didn’t have to worry about my pups because I knew they were in great hands. When we returned home, they were happy and healthy. We will definitely use her services again!
All of our normal dogsitters were busy for our vacation, so I booked Grace on Rover.com, even though I didn't know her at all. She stayed with our two dogs for 4 nights -- and she was wonderful! Lots of updates, photos, and very communicative about everything! She also did a lot of "extra" things around the house like watering our potted flowers/garden and picking up our mail and packages, which we really, really appreciated! I would absolutely hire her again -- she's super responsible and will take great care of your pets!
Camille is THE BEST! Our cats require extra attention and Camille went above and beyond to provide them with so much attention and quality care. As a nervous cat mama, I really appreciated Camille's many updates and extraordinary thoughtfulness. We came back to a perfectly clean and quiet house and I could tell that the cats were well cared for...even my grumpy Russian Blue who isn't always the most welcoming to sitters seemed content. I will definitely be asking Camille to take care of the kitties again.
Megan was an amazing sitter. We both met before the actual start of care and I loved her. I reached out last minute for a travel plan and she met all my expectations in my home. In my opinion, SHE IS THE BEST and will care for your pet like you do. I will definitely be booking her again!! 🐾❤️🐾
Hannah took wonderful care of our dogs! She made being away from home so much less stressful by sending daily updates and pictures. The dogs had a great time with her and she was an exceptional house guest during her stay. I can't recommend her enough, thank you Hannah!

FAQs for House Sitting - Eden Prairie
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Eden Prairie on Rover is $59.94 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 3,396 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Eden Prairie. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Eden Prairie 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 Eden Prairie 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 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!
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 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.

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.
