About: I grew up with dogs, I own two dogs of my own, and I love caring for dogs. Will make sure your animals are well cared for when you’re gone because that’s what I want for my puppies too 🤍 I work full time but have a fairly flexible schedule. Could stay during the week, but may need to be gone during the day up to 8 hours for work.

I have a hyper active dog and a reactive dog so I understand the complexities dog routines can involve!

I am currently unable to board dogs at my home. But, I am available full-time to sit at your home and/or provide drop-ins and walks. I provide a very loving, attentive, and safe environment for animals. I am highly adaptable to the specific needs of each dog I care for. My years of on-leash experiences with all different dogs have built a confidence in safe handling and training strategies.
About: Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember — I grew up with them by my side and the love never left! While I don’t have any pups of my own right now, that just means I have even more love and energy to pour into yours. I’m currently available for mornings and evenings and weekends to care for and support your dogs. I work remotely so I have some flexibility if needed I will ensure that your dog feels safe and trusted with my visits.

About: Life-long crazy dog lady. I will spoil your pooch (or kitty) with attention, pets, walks, and playtime. I have experience with timid and defensive animals, and I can give your fur-baby as much (or as little) space as they need. Currently studying for the LSAT, so I can be around aallllll day. I’m flexible and if I need to be somewhere- you’ll know long before I go. Walks twice daily, as the temperature allows, and nightly scratchies, of course. But if they want to be left alone... that's cool too! I have experience dealing with runners, biters, barkers, food-hoarders, and everything in between. I never go to off leash dog parks. I’ve been carrying pepper spray on walks since my dog and I were attacked by another dog on a walk- I don’t wear sound blocking headphones to stay aware of my surroundings. Responsible pet ownership is my jam!

Please let us know your dog's needs and how we can be of service. We look forward to meeting your pup soon! We are semi-retired and mostly work from home, meaning that we are highly available to provide walks, visits and boarding services. We are frequent visitors of the Airport dog park. We have a fenced-in back yard, which provides ample space for playtime with Nessie. We are semi-retired, which means we have ample time to provide attention to your four-footed friends.

I have weekends off and I am looking to spend some time keeping your animals company. Typically don’t have a long lunch, but can potentially be flexible if needed.

I grew up always having a dog in the house, as well as watching family & friends dogs. I have lots of experience with larger dogs because I owned a Bernese Mountain Dog. I just graduated college and I am looking to start my full time job at the end of August. I have most of the summer off and wanted to do something fun. I’m able to give your dog all the attention needed, and they would never be unattended. I look forward to welcoming and caring for your dog. :)

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Edina
Absolutely amazing! Thank you for taking such good care of our pups while we were out of town! Each dog was treated special - with our young pup getting lots of extra walking/ jogging and rubs and our senior pup given the chance to “get up” when he was ready and getting lots of opportunities to stop and smell to his hearts desire. Awesome job! wWe plan to rebook soon!
Michaela was great. I was delayed 24 hrs from original return time due to widespread travel delays and she was very flexible with the situation and amenable to helping in any way she could. From pics and updates she sent I could tell my guys were content. She was very communicative and I really appreciated her positive attitude while I navigated airport purgatory.
I would absolutely recommend Eleanor to everyone! She went above and beyond for Bowser - even cleaned up some accidents he got while being anxious home alone. She made my trip so much more relaxed knowing that Bowser was in the best hands. Thanks so much Ellie!!!
My boyfriend and I had Ed watch our cat and dog while we were traveling, and Ed was nothing but professional, knowledgeable, and flexible in working with us to meet our pet's needs. Ed clearly enjoys being with animals, and naturally spoils your pets like they are his own. Highly recommend Ed to anyone, as myself and my boyfriend anticipate asking for his assistance in the future!

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Edina stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Edina 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.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Edina with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.

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.
