“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!”
“We went on vacation for a week. I was very worried about our cat, George, who isn’t doing very well. I looked forward to the daily reports that we got when we were gone. She made a point of looking forward George each day, and we got daily pictures of them (even though they were only of them hiding under the bed). Shannon did everything that I asked, including bringing in the mail. Although we have no immediate plans to go on another vacation, I would definitely use Shannon’s services again.”
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: I’ve had the pleasure of being a pet owner myself for over 9 years and have cared for family and friends pets for over 20 years, with experience with reactive dogs specifically, as well as puppies and seniors alike. I’m currently working from home with flexible hours that allow for convenience to step out for walks, feeding time or check-ins/play-time as needed, especially local to St. Louis Park, Hopkins and Minneapolis. As my own dog is reactive to other pets I will only be able to provide care in your home/walks or playtime outside. I have experience pet and house-sitting and am comfortable with fitting into your routine as easily and seamlessly as possible. I am always comfortable with any level of communication, check-ins/photo documentation, home camera systems, and proof of locked doors/house security.
About: i’ve been dog walking and pet sitting for two years, in addition I have my own five-year-old pup who I raised and means the world to me. I am patient and dependable, and will always treat your pet with the same attention and love I would want for my own! I am available weekdays and weekends and have flexible hours so I can accommodate if needed, but preferably mornings or afternoons and evenings work best! I have a friendly medium sized dog if they enjoy company otherwise I live right next to a park that they can have long or short leash walks in a very nice area!
“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!)”
“Maddy does a great job and is very reliable! She has watched my cat, Reuben Baker quite a bit and when I return he is always happy and healthy. Would highly recommend!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs ever since I was little, from small to big, I have experimented with a range of different dogs and even cats! I’m a student but have time for dog walks in the evening and on the weekends, I can provide drop in services on the weekends as well. Your dogs safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I follow any care instructions closely, use secure leashes and harnesses, and stay alert to my surroundings at all times. I treat every dog as if they were my own and provide updates so you can feel confident and at ease while your pup is in my care.
“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: 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.
“Tori did such a wonderful job with the house visits for my two cats when I went out of town. She's friendly, kind and my cats loved her. I will definitely be re-booking with her in the near future!”
“We had a great experience with Leanne! She was reliable, communicative, and made sure to send regular updates and photos, which we really appreciated while we were away. Highly recommended!”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover who genuinely enjoys spending time with dogs of all sizes and personalities. I understand that every pet is unique, so I take the time to learn their routine, energy level, and preferences to help them feel comfortable and cared for. Whether your pup needs a long walk, playtime, cuddles, or just someone to keep them company, I’ll make sure they receive plenty of attention, love, and care. I’m reliable, responsible, and will always treat your dog like they’re part of my own family. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I’m committed to providing a safe, fun, and stress-free experience for both you and your furry friend! I am currently working full time, so weekends and evenings work best for me to care for your pet. I am sometimes free to walk or check in on your pet during weekdays from 12:00pm to 12:45 I tailor my care to each pet’s individual needs and routine. For drop-in visits, I make sure your pet has fresh food and water, potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of affection while also checking that they’re safe and comfortable. During walks, I prioritize your dog’s safety while giving them the exercise and mental stimulation they need, adjusting the pace and distance based on their age and energy level. For overnight stays in your home, I follow your pet’s normal schedule as closely as possible to help them feel relaxed while you’re away. I’ll provide companionship, meals, walks, playtime, and lots of love, while also keeping your home tidy and sending regular updates so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for.
“Anna is great! She always does an amazing job with our dog. She provides wonderful updates and photos. She is very reliable and an excellent communicator. Our dog loves to see and spend time with her. I highly recommend her to anyone!”
“Val is incredibly responsible and a good communicator! So thankful we found her—her flexible schedule and experience with dogs who are high energy/anxious was so great!”
About: Hi! I would love to spend time with your dog or cat! I have grown up on a hobby farm and have been around all kinds of animals my whole life. My family has owned a multitude of different breeds of dogs and I have been responsible to feed, exercise, bathe, train, etc. Feel free to reach out with any questions!!! I work from home so I am able to give your pet walks and attention all throughout the day! My apartment is dog friendly and there are several parks in the area. I am happy to follow any requests or safety guidelines you might have. I can feed, walk, run, brush, and clean up after! I am careful to leave a clean home and can send as many pics/updates as desired!

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!

She is so so thoughtful and loving with our pup- giving him so much love, snuggles, and time to play and be himself.

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.

- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
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.
