“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.”
About: I've had cats and dogs since I was very young. I love learning each animal's unique personality. I work from home and have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to tend to the needs of each animal and pet in my care. I work from home and have a few other odd jobs. I have children who are in schooling full time now, so my schedule is very flexible! I have an extra crate in case clients do not have one. I like to keep these handy to keep animals safe during an overnight if needed. I have a yard that is unfortunately not fenced in, but I love to walk any dogs in my care in the grassy areas behind and around my house.
“Joey has been fantastic. I left for a 3 week trip and she has stopped in twice a day to check up and hang out with my cat (Peaches). She goes the extra mile. Keeping me updated on how Peaches has been doing. Cleaning up any accidents outside the litter box. Taking the garbage out and bringing it up from the driveway on garbage day. She also brought in any packages left at our door. If I need a sitter in the future she will be the first I go to. I highly recommend considering Joey if you’re looking for a sitter you can count on!”
“Jennifer was able to come out on short notice, was flexible about the possibility of additional visits, and noticed that I forgot to mention feeding Angela even though we were out for a day and a half. Angela was very happy to be visited by her!”
About: I’ve taken care of, and grew up with, many different kinds of pets. Before moving out, I spent 10 wonderful years playing with, and caring, my family dog and cat! If you’d like, I’d love to meet, care for, and befriend your pets as well! I’m currently working full time Monday-Friday, but I have flexibility regarding my schedule. On weekdays, I’m more free in the afternoon but on weekends I’m free most of the day. I have a park next to where I live where I’d be able to take your pet out and play with him/her. My apartment is also pet friendly!
“Ed was diligent, punctual, and reliable. He was extremely patient with our senior cat, whose care can be challenging, and used creative problem solving to manage her quirks. His communications were detailed, entertaining, and filled with humor. He clearly enjoyed providing care to our two cats and we would have him back in a heartbeat.”
About: I volunteer with my local animal rescue. I’ve loved animals my whole life and want nothing more than to keep them healthy and happy :) I work a full time 9-5 job so unfortunately I am only available on weekends and in the evening on weekdays. Otherwise I would have a pet of my own! I have a fenced in yard and a very walkable, safe neighborhood. I have watched friends pets so my house is dog/cat safe even though I don’t have a pet of my own.
About: Hello! My name is Steph and I have been caring for animals my whole life. I would love to meet your pets and give you one less thing to worry about while you’re away. I have had dogs, cats, hamsters, guinea pigs, fish, geckos, bearded dragons and a tarantula. I am experienced with animals that have special needs and sigh administering medications. I work from home most days and my schedule is flexible. I also have a list of trusted back-up pet sitters that are able to fill in if your needs don’t align perfectly with my availability. I am happy to provide drop-in or stay-in care for your animals. Your pets will be cared for just as you would. They will get the love and attention that they deserve.
“Jordana took perfect care of our high energy dogs when I reached out due to work travel! They clearly enjoyed her presence and were so happy in all of the photos. We will be using her again!”
About: I have 15 years of experience caring for dogs and cats, from quick drop-in visits and playtime to extended stays with overnight pet sitting. I grew up with my parents’ dogs and have always had a love for animals. I spent two weeks in California caring for a Golden Retriever. I have experience with multiple overnight stays, caring for 1–5 pets at a time. I understand that every pet has unique needs and routines, and I make sure they receive plenty of love and care. I’m reliable, attentive, and committed to keeping your pets safe, happy, and comfortable while providing updates and peace of mind while you’re away! I work from home so am available to work from anywhere. I love going on walks and can easily make that a part of a routine while caring for your animals. I am able to come over and watch your pets! I am used to various environments while pet-sitting. I am also available for walks and check-ins to make sure your pets feel taken care of.
“Sheila was very good at communicating with an update and pictures of my cats. She also took time to entice them to play with their favorite toy! She did a great job spending time with them!”
About: I have had pets all while growing up. I have had two bigger dogs and I have a cat at my parents house. I have help neighbors watch and walk there dogs when they are gone. I am currently working part time which allows me to have a lot of flexibility. This allows me to have more time to care for animals. I make sure to walk or play with them regularly! Always keeping an eye on them so make sure they’re safe and behaving. I also want them to be comfortable with me so making sure I introduce my self in mine or there home correctly.
About: I have been a pet lover from a young age. Throughout my life I have lived with chinchillas, hamsters, fish, a full sized poodle, miniature schnauzers, a Pomeranian-Bichon mix, and multiple cats. I love finding out each pet’s unique personality and helping them thrive. I love training, playing, and cuddling with animals. I am a runner so I can run with or walk with dogs to tire them out. I have past experience grooming and bathing smaller dogs. My apartment complex is dog and cat friendly. I haven’t had a dog for a few years which has left a bit of a hole in my heart that I would love to fill taking care of the needs of pups and cats alike who need a friend while their loved ones are away!
“Heidi did such a wonderful job with our cats and our dog, that I’m 99% sure the puppy was disappointed when I came home. I wouldn’t hesitate to hire her again (and look forward to doing so soon!)”
“Adelaide has been walking my dog weekly for awhile now, and I have been really happy. She is incredibly caring and mindful of my dogs needs. She has my complete trust!”
“Haley did an EXCELLENT job with our kitties!!! She went above and beyond, even when they chose to be incredibly mischievous while we were gone. She truly seems to love the pets she's watching! Would absolutely recommend Haley, and hope to hire her again in the future!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Eden Prairie
Nicole watched our cats while we were on vacation for a week. She was very good with communicating daily and sending several pictures, which always makes me feel better. Both cats have really warmed up to her, even our shy guy. She’s able to administer his meds subcutaneously with no issue. She’s a nice person and we appreciate her with easing the stress of leaving our beloved aging pets.
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.
Patricia (Trish) was so great to work with! Communication was excellent and consistent and it was evident how much she adored our fur babies from the notes and photos she sent. We were out of the country and felt so at ease that our kitties were in her hands. We will 100% book with Trish again!!
I've never left my pets with anyone but family. I was in a pinch and discovered Rover. The site was easy to use and it was easy to find someone in my area. When I reached out to Bec and she told me she was available, I was so relieved. We did a meet and greet and I knew instantly she would be great. My one cat Leo warmed up to her quite fast, they played and she gave him love and attention. My other cat Stash was a little more shy, toward the end he warmed up to her as well. Bec definitely has a love for animals. I didn't worry once while I was gone as I knew my fur babies were getting great care, love and the attention they needed. I will definitely have Bec back for my future adventures...❤️❤️
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!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Eden Prairie is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $33 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 November 2026, there are 5,670 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Eden Prairie. 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Eden Prairie. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
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.
