“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.”
“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!)”
“Sure! Here’s a short review you can use: Alyssa was wonderful and took excellent care of avila. She is kind, attentive, and clearly has a natural way with animals. Cola was well-accompanied and comfortable during her visits. I truly appreciate Alyssa’s care and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable pet sitter!”
“Laura responded to my drop-in visit request quickly and was flexible on the meet-up day when I asked if we could reschedule due to the rain. I could tell as soon as she met my Sam that she is great with dogs and I appreciated the info she shared with me about other dogs she's watched.”
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 will follow whatever care instructions and routine you have for your dogs to ensure they are safe and well cared for. I have a hyper active dog and a reactive dog so I understand the complexities dog routines can involve!
About: Our family currently has no pets of our own because our life is ever-shifting right now, but our love for animals has not gone away! Pet-sitting is the perfect way we’re able to show other people’s pets love until the day we can have our own again. I had 2 goofy rescue boxers for almost 10 yrs and loved them dearly. I have almost always had a cat throughout my entire life as well and love them equally! I do work 8-3p during the weekdays until mid-August until mid-May and then I’m off for the summer. Outside of some various activities with my boys we are around and able to love on your pet. I have 2 energetic boys that love animals, they are 9y and 10y and are eager to help out with caring for pets. My fiance, Andrew and I just moved in together and his 12 yr old twin boys are animal lovers too. We love going on walks as well as cuddling up and snuggling. I do prefer to have clients bring their own comfort item (toy, blanket, bed, etc), food bowls, and treats as each pet is so different and it provides them comfort to have that familiarity if you feel they need that.
“Annalise was absolutely fantastic! My dog can be quite challenging but she was able to work with him to build trust quickly and took great care of him. She also provided very thorough and timely communication. Would highly recommend Annalise for your dog watching needs.”
“Ben was amazing!! It was our first time leaving our sweet cat under the care of a sitter, and he was so kind and attentive. He sent great updates and built trust with our cat, who can be quite shy. We highly, highly, highly recommend Ben!”
About: I have had dogs and cats my entire life. I have also helped raise and care for other people's pets. I would be happy to take your dog on walks, potty breaks or for overnights. I can also visit your cat and give it love and attention when you're away. We have a 16lb dog ourselves who is very dog friendly. I work from home so I am available any day from 8am - 7pm for walks or potty breaks. If your dog prefers running we can talk about running as an option! I have a fenced in yard with a fence high enough for small and medium sized dogs. Our 16lb 5 yr old dog is very dog friendly.
“Melanie was great! My main goal with a sitter was to have a liquid medication given to my cat. Everyone knows how much fun that can be. Not only did Melanie pull that off with flying colors she also gave me a tip to make it easier!”
“Cari-Ana has been extremely helpful and patient with my dog. He is very nervous, and she was gentle and patient with him. I feel extremely confident leaving my dog in her care! She is knowledgeable, caring, and great to work with!”
About: I’ve always loved animals and treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. I’m patient, dependable, and committed to making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, administering medications if needed, or simply providing companionship, I’ll follow your pet’s routine and give them the attention they deserve. I’m an athlete so all I do is work out so I have a lot of time in my day to be with the animals I will provide a safe, clean, and comfortable environment for every pet in my care. I will follow the owner’s instructions closely regarding feeding schedules, exercise, medication, and any special needs.
About: We are dog lovers with deep experience in dog-sitting and walking services. We regularly take care of our friends' pets and are experts in having fun and getting exercise at the dog park. Teri comes from a dog care and grooming family, while Paul brings more than 40 years of experience caring for, training and spoiling dogs of all shapes, sizes and colors. We have a fenced-in yard in the Kenny neighborhood, close to the Minnehaha Creek and other hiking paths. We only watch one dog (or bonded pair) at a time, so your pup will get all of the attention it deserves. Three of our dogs have had special health care needs. Two had Addison's Disease, meaning we are experienced at giving injections and oral medication. Our current pup, Nessie, is a smaller-sized standard poodle. She loves everyone and is a great co-host! 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.
About: Animal lover here, excited to care for your pup! I have experience with many breeds and can't wait to share adventures on our time together! I work 8-5 mainly with a shorter workday Friday. 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. Grew up with dogs around me and have plenty experience watching peoples pets. Love following list of needs so they feel most comfortable when they aren’t with their parents!

Evelyn was great. We trusted her to enter our home and watch over Zues and Nova our two dogs while we were out of town and she did not dissapoint. Always gave updates and played with them. They both looked well taken care of We will be booking her in the future.
Lauren did an amazing job with our pets! We needed our cat Franklin + 2 geckos looked after while out of town, and she took care all of them like a pro. Communication was great, and consistent with every visit we had scheduled. She paid very close attention to every detail in our care instructions. It was a pleasure working with you, and we would love to have take care of our them again!
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!
This was the first time my husband and I used Rover and we lucked out finding Annalise! From the Meet & Greet, she was so helpful orienting us to the Rover app and she is incredibly knowledgable about dog behaviors and safety. She is so so thoughtful and loving with our pup- giving him so much love, snuggles, and time to play and be himself. She even gave him an ear, neck, and shoulder massage during one of the drop ins and let him choose his favorite snack from her box of snacks she keeps in her car for all the pups she cares for. Her communication is top tier and she is so diligent with her Rover notes. We could not be more grateful to know our pup is being cared for by someone so considerate, responsible, and caring!
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.
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.
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.
