“Thank you Erin and your daughter!! Such great communication and care going the extra mile! So nice to know Amy and Simon were well taken care of while we were away. Hope you continue to do this, would love to have you again! Faye”
“Kristi was amazing with my dogs! She sent me the cutest pictures from their walk, and took such great care of my 18 year old, Sadie, and Reese. Will definitely be booking with her again soon♥️”
“Kacey is the very best sitter around! She always takes the best care of my boys. I always make sure when I'm planning a vacation the momne time gotten something booked I book her next. She takes care of my cats like they are her own!”
About: I have grown up around dogs. I look after my neighbors dogs when they have a sporting event or vacation. I let their dog outside to go to the bathroom and when they are done I play with them for a little bit. I currently have three dogs, a black lab mix, a yellow lab mix and a papillon-jack russel. The papillon is my own and care for him everyday. I walk him, play with him and feed him. My schedule is open, so I am available when you need me to watch your pet. I am available any time of the day . My clients home normally have a fenced in yard and I do play with them so that they will get plenty of exercise. I can crate your pet if needed.
“Amber goes over and above in what is expected of her, lately the puppers been having some #2 issues and not expected of her to have to clean them up she does what she can to make it manageable while we work through whatever his problem currently is. Great on keeping us apprised of what is happening and would highly recommend.”
“Danielle was a hit with our two pups. They adore her! As a service provider, she is communicative, prompt, and thorough. Whatever your needs are when it comes to pet services, she will exceed those expectations. We will be booking with her in the future.”
“Megan did a couple drop-ins for my dog Milo and I have no complaints! She was willing to swing by over the weekend to meet him before she dropped in which was much appreciated. She is friendly and provides photos and great reports of how Milo is doing when she drops in. I hate to leave him home for so long but it gives me some peace of mind knowing that he has a new buddy to come visit him during the day. :)”
“Can’t recommend Andrea enough! She’s great with our dogs (who can be a lot), and sends adorable updates. A true dog lover! Knowing she is coming has given us so much peace of mind!”
About: Hi! My name is Katelyn and I love working with all kinds of animals! I volunteer at the Animal Humane Society in Coon Rapids as a Animal Care Assistent where I walk, engage, entertain, and comfort dogs of all kinds and sizes twice a week. I have taken care of dogs, cats, bunnies and chickens my entire life. I just enjoy being able to give animals the entertainment, exercise and love that they deserve. I am currently a student-athlete at Northern Michigan University but am home for the summer in Elk River. I am available almost any day of the week and at almost any time to take care of your pet! My dog at home, Millie, is a very nervous dog overall so I am very patient and calm with her to make sure she is comfortable. I know when she wants to be left alone or when she wants to play or be pet. My cat is very independent but likes to be around people if he is not sleeping. He doesn’t love to be picked up or pet a lot so I just enjoy when he is present in the room.
“Macaroni, my crazy hound loves Amber! They have had a couple play dates and great walks! She will be staying with Macaroni for a few days coming up and I am not worried a bit! I know she’s in great hands! So glad we found her!”
“Emma was amazing. We however dropped the ball this time with a few things and she was so understanding. The pups loved her. Her communication was awesome. Will definitely use her again if she can put up with us 🤦🏻♀️🤣”
About: I don’t remember a time in my life that I wasn’t caring for pets! I currently have 2 dogs and 1 cat of my own. I have also cared for dogs, cats, and even exotic pets for family and friends away on long trips since I was around 10 years old. I love all animals (even bugs🩷) and I can guarantee I’ll care for your pet like my own! I am a college student home for the summer, so my calendar is free! I keep my schedule updated and I accept bookings almost anytime. I’m flexible! Whatever your pet is used to, I can match. In my own home, I ensure the kitty has food, water, and clean litter box available at all times. We play for 15 minutes a day at minimum, but he’s a very hyper cat so he runs around on his own half the time. For my dogs, I let them outside whenever they ask to be let outside haha. If your dog has a schedule, I’ll follow it. I feed them twice a day and ensure they have water at all times. I play with one of my dogs for about 30 minutes each day, the other one doesn’t like to play (She’s a bit strange…). Whatever your pet needs, I can do! I will do my best to keep their routine as unchanged as possible while you’re away.
“Natalie has been my rover sitter for a couple of times now and she’s absolutely amazing! My cats LOVE when she’s around and she’s so good about communicating as well - highly recommend her for any pet sitting needs!”
“Emma helped me out big time when I needed a last minute drop in for my standard poodle mix Nilla. She sent me updates and Nilla was happy to have the company! She followed all directions seamlessly and asked questions if she had them. Would definitely recommend Emma and am looking forward to reaching out to her in the future!”
“First time Rover user and I picked Lauren based on her 5-star reviews. Lauren was great, she is super nice, she paid attention to some dog specific things, and most importantly the dogs loved her. She is highly recommended and I definitely will be using her again in the future.”

Elk River cat parents share their Rover experiences
Erin was great, this was the second time we have used her pet sitting services and she does a great job. My orange cat absolutely loves her and she did great with my other scaredy cat who hid most of the time. I will definitely be using her services in the future.
I highly recommend Marcale’s services! She was wonderful with our cats and I imagine she is just as attentive to other animals. She followed our instructions to a T. There were no messes to clean up when we got home and neither cat was stressed out. I simply cannot thank her enough for her care and we will be requesting her assistance again - probably in June!
