“I am so happy to have connected with Isabelle on Rover! I've had some questionable sitters before and I'm so relieved to have found a reliable person with great communication! Will definitely be booking again. 🐾”
“Nancy is awesome! She tended to my pup like it was her own. She provided plenty of love and attention including daily walks, playtime and cuddles. She kept me updated with daily pics and texts, and left our house in pristine condition. She's a keeper!”
“Brooke house/dog sat for us for a 2 week vacation to Europe and I was so nervous to leave my baby for so long but Brooke made it so easy! She sent multiple updates with pictures EVERYday and I could tell she really enjoyed her time with Rosie. She even brought over some enrichment toys for her and she really enjoyed those. I travel for work and am sad that I can’t take Brooke with us everywhere we go! She was great and definitely recommend her!”
“We couldn't have asked for a more loving, responsible individual for Opie. Emma provided overnight house sitting and care for our boy and our home. We were incredibly grateful to have found her and will definitely ask her again when we need a companion and sitter.”
“This is our second time having Katy come to stay with our boys and it was great, again! They feel very comfortable with her, she takes good care of them, and she always communicates well. We’ve loved working with her!”
“We loved having Lilly watch our two dogs. She took wonderful care of them and the house, while we were gone for a week. She was thoughtful and the dogs were very happy! We will be using her services again.”
“Ann was absolutely fantastic! We had to use her on short notice because of a date mixup with our initial sitter. We have three tiny, *neurotic* and high maintenance Italian Greyhounds and we’ve never left them with anyone but family members. Ann stepped in for 2.5 days on short notice, including overnights. She quickly accommodated a meet and greet with the dogs, she was kind and personable, and the dogs took to her immediately. She hit the ball out the park, and we came home to three utterly relaxed dogs. She was very communicative, sending us texts and pictures. We will ABSOLUTELY use her as our regular going forward, so don’t hesitate to book her for peace of mind when you have to travel.”
“Rachel was a great sitter for my puppy. She arrived on time and was very polite. She texted me a cute picture midway through the night and that warmed my heart! I definitely recommend her.”
“Maria was so great with Derby! The numerous pics she sent showed Derby doing the same funny, sweet things she does when we are at home, so I knew she felt loved and safe! Maria kept us informed of how Derby was doing and asked questions when needed. Our house was immaculate when we returned as well! We would book Maria again in a heartbeat!”
“Kayla did a great job dog sitting our three chihuahua mixes. I'm not sure they missed us at all! She sent update reports and photos daily to keep us informed. She was very respectful of our house.”
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! I have a consistent Tuesday-Saturday work schedule with Sundays and Mondays off. I’m available for pet care before and after work and have full availability on my days off! 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!
“Ashley was an excellent house/dog sitter! Our pup was clearly well taken care of, she spent lots of time playing and walking him. We appreciated the routine updates and she left the house clean and secured. Glad to know we can work with her again!”
“Madelyn was great with my pups! She stayed at my house for 10 days and always gave me updates and sent pictures. When one of my pups had a small injury that he gets often from his intense games of fetch, she sent me pictures, videos, and had researched the issue. She was willing to take him to the vet which luckily wasn’t necessary but she was so caring and attentive. I would absolutely book her again.”
“Julia was a great fit for our dog! She was very flexible when our plans changed several times. Buddy loved her attentive, loving care while she spent the week with him at our home! We are excited to have found a great dog sitter to stay with him while we are away!”
“Cassidy is the best! She stayed with our pets for 5 nights and all went so well. She walked Honey, gave our cat her meds and kept us updated as needed. We’re so grateful for her help!”
“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 have watched dogs since I was about 13. Dogs age ranging from a couple months old to 12 years old. I have an open schedule so can meet your needs. I am soon to be working part time which will allow me to be able to let your dog out every couple hours and have responsible timing I have a fenced yard with a large outdoor kennel if needed with food and water.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Eden Prairie
Michelle stayed with our 2 miniature Dachshunds for the first time this past weekend and I couldn't have felt more comfortable. She sent many photos and updates throughout her stay and I could see how relaxed our dogs were. She definitely has a generous amount of love to give to your pets.
This is the second time that Lindsay has helped us with our Buddy while we were out of town - she is definitely on our "Favorites" list! We were able to enjoy our time away knowing that Buddy was well taken care of! We got pics along the way, Buddy was happy, and the house was in good order when we returned. Buddy even got a little Puppy-Spa session with the blow dryer after a rainy, wet walk - he LOOOVES a nice blow dry / massage after a rainy walk!! :-) Thanks again, Lindsay!
Stephanie stayed in our home and cared for our dog for two weeks while we traveled internationally. During the time we were gone we received regular updates, including pictures, which meant a lot when traveling for so long. When we got home we found a freshly cleaned house and a very happy dog, with some new enrichment activity toys thanks to Stephanie. I can highly recommend Stephanie as a house/ dog sitter. She is very skilled, and deeply cares for animals. We will definitely book with her again.
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!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Eden Prairie is $57 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $32 and $88 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. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

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 , 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 .
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 .
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.
