“Carla was an amazing sitter for our two senior dogs! They both require medication, one via injection, and she administered these without any problems. She fed them, spent time with them, and communicated well with us about how they were doing. You can tell she takes this job very seriously and also that she truly enjoys dogs. We were very lucky to find her and will absolutely be hiring her again in the future.”

“Clara did a fantastic job of taking care of my two cats, when I returned they were the same happy cats as when I left. She was great about communicating about what was going on with the cats and I got to see pictures of them frequently, which assured me that they were in good hands. I highly recommend her services.”

“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!”

About: I've had dogs and cats and fish all my life. Currently have a 9 yo lab we've had since he was a puppy, two senior cats and uncountable fish including a 55 gallon tank and too many guppies and shrimp. Comfortable with administering meds, special care and playful pups. Very flexible week day schedule between 7a-4p. Long night time walks after 9 can be tricky with my family schedule but we can usually find a good way to work it out. I'll treat your babies like they're my own. Whether that's getting good pets and play time or enforcing your rules to sit/stay/okay before meals... I'm willing and able to work within what your pets are used to and expect.

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and have been a dedicated dog owner for over 8 years. For the past 3 years, I’ve also fostered pups, giving me experience with a wide range of temperaments and styles. I’m comfortable with everything from high energy personalities to shy or anxious dogs. I’m comfortable with senior dogs (my last pup was 18!), puppies and everything in between. At this time, I’m focusing on small and medium sized dogs so they will be the best match for my own dog and I can provide the best care possible. I work full time from home and am available to board in my house anytime for most lengths of time. Lots of time to play with your pup! Right now, I’m open to hosting small and medium pups—as they are the best matches for my own dog. My dog, Elliot, loves to go for walks (weather permitting) and we’d love for your pup to tag along! If the weather is bad, my yard is perfect for zoomies, ball/toy chasing, neighbor watching and basking in the sun. I have my own small pup who is energetic and loves to play, but isn’t pushy. I work from home so we are together all the time! We walk often—in the morning, at lunch and in evenings. I have a fenced in yard for potty breaks with lots of toys and enrichment. I am home most of the time, but would contain (kennel or pen if needed) when I leave and I’m also open to pups that aren’t kenneled but safe to leave out (I’d put away my own dog).
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. I also have dog puzzles I am willing to bring to keep your dog active.

About: What sets me apart as a dog sitter is my genuine passion for animals combined with hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages and needs. I specialize in both puppy training and senior dog care, which means I’m not just here to watch over your dog I’m here to support their well-being at every stage of life. With puppies, I focus on positive reinforcement, helping them build confidence, learn basic commands, and feel safe in new environments. With senior dogs, I’m patient and attentive to their comfort, health routines, and any mobility challenges they may have. I also prioritize clear communication with pet parents, keeping you updated with photos, messages, and detailed notes so you always feel connected and reassured while you’re away. Above all, I treat every dog like family—with kindness, respect, and lots of love. I organize my days around making sure each dog in my care gets the attention, activity, and comfort they need—whether that means morning walks, playtime, feeding schedules, or simply quiet companionship. I set aside time every day for exercise, training, and one-on-one interaction to build trust and keep pets happy and mentally stimulated. On a weekly basis, I plan for grooming needs, restocking supplies, and adjusting routines to fit each pet’s personality and preferences. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, my priority is always to create a safe, loving, and stress-free environment where each animal feels comfortable and cared for. In My Home: I maintain a calm and pet-friendly space with plenty of room to play, rest, and explore. I follow each pet’s routine closely—feeding schedules, walks, medication if needed, and preferred activities. I limit the number of pets I take at once to ensure personalized attention and a peaceful atmosphere. In My Client’s Home: I respect your home as if it were my own and follow your pet’s established routine to keep them as relaxed and happy as possible. I make sure they’re well-fed, exercised, and emotionally cared for. I also keep the space clean, send regular updates, and can handle light home tasks like bringing in mail or watering plants if needed. No matter where I’m caring for your pet, I treat them like family—with patience, love, and reliability.

About: I’m a mother of two, who has had a lifetime of pets and animal experience. I know the anxiety of trusting your fur baby with a stranger, so I look forward to building a relationship with you and your animals and providing care as if they were my own. I have decades worth of experience with dogs, cats, small mammals, and birds. I also have experience with special needs animals, specifically administering insulin to diabetic cats. Now that both my kids are in school full time, I am creating that next chapter of my life. I have been a full time care giver for the last 10 years to my babies so I’d like to continue my work of caregiving and give back to my community by helping with our beloved pets. I am a responsible and experienced mother to both humans and fur babies alike with over 30 years of caring for my own cats, dogs, and small mammals.
“Jessie did a great job caring for my lovely kitty, Cora, while I was out of town. She made sure that the food, water, and the litter box were all taken care of. No hungry kitty here. Since Jessie lives nearby, it was easy for her to run over, and I appreciated that. I would certainly recommend Jessie to anyone here on Rover for both her cat and dog caring skills.”

About: With over 20 years of experience in the pet industry, caring for animals isn't just my passion—it's a way of life! I bring years of hands-on experience, knowledge, and genuine love for animals to every pet I care for. I am available during the day while my kids are at school, preferably between 10am-2pm! Some weekends might be available as well depending on what I have going on I understand that every dog has their own unique personality, needs, and routine. Whether your pup loves long walks, playtime, belly rubs, or simply lounging and getting extra cuddles, I make it my priority to ensure they feel safe, comfortable, loved, and right at home.

“My dog Peter is in hospice. He is stage 4 kidney disease. That is the bad part. The good part is he is happy enjoying the end of his novel free from pain. To keep Peter happy, it's a lot of work frankly. Lots of medications and Sub Q fluids (Fluids are administered through a small needle inserted into the skin between Pete's shoulder blades) to flush out his failing kidney every day. That is where Howie comes in. I travel quite frequently, and it has become increasingly difficult for my 83-year-old father to give Pete the Sub Q fluids because he does not really enjoy the treatment. Howie is so kind, gentle and loving with Pete and provides him with his treatment any time i am out of town. I honestly do not know what I would (or my entire family) would do without his help. I am so lucky to have found him as it is not easy finding someone with the experience that Howie has with ailing fur babies.”

About: Hi! I’m Sydney and I’m 28 years old. I have been taking care of dogs for over 10 years for friends and family. My family has fostered dogs, so I have experience with dogs of all sizes and behaviors. I also have an anxious fur baby of my own, so dogs that need extra care hold a special place in my heart. I currently work in the corporate world full time, but I have a very flexible job. I work a hybrid schedule which means I am working at home for most of the week and can often be available during the day. I live in an areas with many walking trails and a small dog park outside my apartment. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and am comfortable handling larger dogs.

About: I have been around dogs my whole life. From Shih Tzus to Newfoundlands, I have lived with them all. I have been a dog walker since I was 10 years old, walking any and all dogs in our neighborhood. Since I was 16, I was house sitting and watching dogs of any family that asked me. I currently have a 14 year old Shih Tzu named Lulu and a 8 year old Coton de Tulear named Chloe. Living with an elderly dog has taught me to have patience and that they love just as hard as any other dog. I live without fear of any dog, so getting to know your pet will come easy to me. Dogs make me so happy and I protect mine with everything I have. I have currently looking for a new full-time job after moving back home. For the time being, I will be available from 7a-5p, Monday-Friday. I have a fenced in back yard at home and let my pets roam around the house when I am not home. I will do whatever the client wants in their own home.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Edina 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 5,797 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Edina. 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.

- 87% 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.
