“Brian is fantastic with walking our dog! We have booked Brian multiple times, and never hesitate to do so. He is very accommodating to our dog's sometimes erratic schedule, due to rain and such.”

About: 🐾 **Hi there, fellow pet lovers!** 🐾 If I could have *all* the animals, I would, but since that’s not possible (yet!), I’m here to shower yours with love instead! Whether it’s hosting your furry friend, going on adventures together, or keeping them company for a cozy weekend, I’ll make sure your pet feels cared for, safe, and adored while you’re away. I bring a compassionate, caring, and professional touch to every pet I care for. When I’m not pet sitting, you’ll find me volunteering with Midwest Animal Rescue and Underdog Rescue, taking care of my family, or spending time with my own spoiled fur-babies at home 💖 Communication, community, and mutual trust are super important to me — I want you to feel as comfortable as your pet does! Let’s connect and make sure your furry family member has the best care possible while you’re away! I have plenty of time to take your dog for a walk or check on them, so please reach out and we’ll see what we can arrange. 🦮 I am available for in-home pet sitting, or yours can stay with me! I am a loving pet owner, and know how much they mean to us. I’ll make sure to take care of your babe as if they were my own; shower them with pets and treats, and take them for lots of walks!
“Brooke is simply amazing! She is so sweet and thoughtful and is a great communicator! Luna and I love Brooke ❤️ She is also a great dog photographer she taken some of my favorite photos that I have of Luna”

About: I grew up with dogs and cats so I am versatile, bringing the silly to the park or the calm to the rest time. Would love to get to know you and your furry family members! I'm currently at home with my baby so I'm fairly flexible with my schedule. As long as I'm not nursing, I can pop over to give your fur babies some love! Before I meet your little buds, I want to have a thorough conversation with you about your expectations, pet, and home. If possible, I'd like to stop by while you're home to be introduced to your pet and get a tour. Communication is key and I want you to trust that your pet is getting the best care!
“Joanna was amazing and gave us so many updates on Chi-Chi while we were away. I was so happy she made time to meet us in advance and asked many questions to get to know Chi-Chi better. We came home to a very happy pup! 🐶 🐾 💕 Highly recommend 10/10”

“Keith was tremendous. He was reliable & also flexible- at the last minute we added our 2nd dog (Maisie) for 2 days. Keith just rilled with it, adding her to the Mac walk schedule. Will definitely be using him again!”

About: What sets me apart is my combination of experience, safety awareness, and genuine love for animals. I’ve been pet sitting for over 5 years and have grown up with dogs and cats my entire life. I’m comfortable caring for pets of all ages, from energetic puppies and kittens to senior pets who need a gentler pace and extra attention. In addition to dogs and cats, I’ve also cared for reptiles, birds, and fish, so I’m comfortable managing diverse household pet needs and following detailed care routines. I have experience administering oral medications, caring for pets during minor illnesses, and working with animals who have anxiety or behavioral challenges. I’m observant and attentive to subtle changes in behavior, which helps me respond quickly and responsibly if something seems off. In addition to pet care experience, I have a strong background in health and safety. I’ve worked in safety-focused environments and am CPR/First Aid trained, so I prioritize safe routines, secure handling, and proactive communication at all times. I’m also very active and love being outdoors, which makes me a great match for high-energy dogs who need engaging walks and enrichment. Whether your pet needs long walks, structured playtime, or calm companionship, I can tailor my approach to their individual needs. As a pet owner myself, I understand the importance of trust. I provide consistent updates with photos and videos, so you always feel connected and reassured while you’re away. I treat every pet in my care as if they were my own. Pet care fits very naturally into my routine. I’m a full-time hybrid student, which means I have a flexible schedule and am only away for short periods of time during the day. I’m able to plan my classes and study time around the pets I’m caring for to ensure they get consistent attention and interaction. Spending time with animals is something I genuinely look forward to each day. I make time for play, walks, enrichment, and quiet companionship depending on the pet’s needs. Because I’m home frequently, I’m able to maintain routines and provide a steady presence rather than long stretches of absence. I provide care exclusively in my clients’ homes so pets can stay comfortable in their familiar environment and routines. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, medications, walks, playtime, and household preferences. I am very respectful of others’ homes and treat each space with the same care I would expect for my own. I keep things clean, secure doors and windows, and maintain open communication throughout the stay. My goal is for you to return to a happy, well-cared-for pet and a home exactly as you left it.
“Nyree was amazing, and I’d highly recommend her! She came every morning for a week to let my fur baby out of her kennel, give her breakfast, and take her for a quick morning walk. Leia absolutely looked forward to her mornings with Nyree, and I’m so grateful for the kind, thoughtful care she provided.”

“Margaret is so great with Stu. After just a few walks, he already doesn’t even look back to see if I might be coming along. He always comes home tired but very happy. (Just as I need him to be!)”

“Charlie loves walking with Tracy. She has a calming and positive nature that helps with his high energy. He watches out the window for her. I really appreciate it, along with her flexibility with my schedule.”

“Great First Experience with Rover I used Rover for the first time to find a last-minute dog walker, and it was a fantastic experience. My walker was super communicative, accommodating, and made the process stress-free. I got updates, photos, and a happy pup at the end. Highly recommend and will use again!”

About: Need someone that loves your dog like you do? I can help! :) I’ve been an animal lover my whole life! I bring a calm and understanding care to every fur friend I look after. I currently dog walk a sweet 5 year old Boxer-mix weekly, but I’m excited to add more animals to my schedule. I build a bond with the pets in my care and am always looking for ways to personalize my approach to best fit their needs! -I also volunteer weekly as an animal care assistant at the Animal Humane Society! I am working part-time so I have lots of time to spend with your pet! I am available on weekdays for walks & drop-ins! I would love to meet your fur friend🐾 Making sure your pet feels comfortable is my top priority! I take the health and safety of the pet in my care very seriously. Ensuring that they receive their regular feedings times, potty breaks, medications, walks, play-time etc.! Aside from usual clean-ups (accidents/messes), I also do my best to tidy up as I go.
“Erin alerted us to a heat issue in our home when she came to pick up Aspen for her walk. Definitely not her job, but very much appreciated as it saved our pup and helped to avoid a bigger house problem. She is fantastic!”


“She is as always wonderful with our Samantha. Sammy has special elder dog needs and Alisha has been so patient and kind with her , you’d think she was her own.”

About: I've had 22 years of experience living with and loving black labs in south Minneapolis. I can accommodate dogs of any age. I love to be outdoors and enjoy walking. My work week is full; however, I am fully available on the weekends to dote on your pup. I am a teacher. From mid-August to mid-June my weeks are full. My weekends are open. I'm available over holidays. I am also available throughout the summer. I have a small home with a fenced-in yard and a park within blocks. For the past twelve years, I had a dog, and we walked every day. I greatly miss my companion and would love to shower your dog with lots of love and care.
Ericsson dog parents share their Rover experiences
We love Danielle! She came by and did a meet and greet with the pups and asked questions to understand their personalities all before starting their weekly dog walks and drop in visits. She’s super great with communication and has the skills and knowledge to handle dogs of all sizes. Our 70-80 lbs Labradors love her and it has given us such a peace of mind knowing that they are in such good hands. I would highly recommend her if you’re looking for a communicative, caring, pet care experience.

My dog Libby just LOVES going for walks with Deanna! Deanna treats her like she is one of her own fur babies; she sends lots of pictures of their adventures out together and is very flexible with booking times. Libby and I are so happy we found such a great person to stand in for me!

We had a very positive experience with Jade for the two walks she gave our dog Molly this weekend! She generously spent time with our anxious and fearful dog (rescue pup with a major trauma background) on Friday for the meet and greet and didn’t leave until Molly felt comfortable with her. She came back Saturday for a walk, and Molly walked the furthest with her she has ever walked for any other dog walker. Jade is kind and patient and gentle and seems to have a natural understanding of animals, both their limits and needs. She never pushes Molly beyond her comfort level and flawlessly implements strategies to help ease her fear and anxiety. She is also punctual. Once she leaves, Molly is her same happy, healthy and playful self, versus hiding under the bed for a lengthy amount of time, like has happened with other dog walkers. Molly’s behavior after receiving her care is the best testament to Jade’s gentle and loving way with animals. I won’t hesitate to use her again for a walk for Molly. Thank you, Jade!
