“Julie is wonderful. She has taken our dog on multiple walks and now stayed at our home for a weekend we were out of town. She sent us many pictures and updates throughout the weekend, we came home to a perfectly clean home and happy pup. Definitely recommend!!”

“Mercy was wonderful! She took great care of Zoey and she was a great communicator. I would highly recommend her to anyone. I liked her as soon as I met her!”

“I highly recommend Olivia as a sitter. She was great with my dog Ash. She communicates often and is quick to reply to messages and is very professional. She sent photos and multiple daily updates. Thanks for taking care of my dog!”

“Tracy came through clutch for us when plans with another sitter fell through. She made sure to spend some quality time with all of our kitties - a challenge in its own right with these three lunatics! She sent us regular picture updates, some of which made clear that our more affectionate kitties warmed right up to her. I would gladly hire Tracy again to watch my little tyrants on my next weekend vacation. You probably should, too.”

“Great experience, wonderful communication, and took good care of our dog and home. Followed all pet care directions for my reactive dog and took care of the unexpected snow so that Bear could still go outside! We look forward to working with Brandon again.”

“Lilah was awesome with my dogs, and keeping me updated on them. My house was very clean when I returned. Everything was great and I would definitely recommend her, and will book her again in the future! Thanks Lilah!”

“Great experience! Iris was a good communicator and seemed to enjoy spending time with our dog. We came home to a happy pup and a house in great condition. Would definitely book again!”

About: No matter how big or small I prioritize the happiness and care for your fur-babies as if they were my own. I have previously owned/cared for bunnies, dogs, cats, turtles, lizards and last but not least guinea pigs. Currently I own a big 148lb love-bug of a Great Pyrenees, an Abyssinian guinea pig and three Red Slider turtles! I have assisted my sister for many years taking care of cats and dogs. I also I have previous experience being a dog bather. I currently do not work and am getting ready to study software engineering, giving me much time to give my full attention to your fur-babies. For boarding and daycare, I live in a house with my mom and brother, five minutes away from the Mall of America. I have a fenced in backyard yard with nice bright lights to light the yard at night. There is plenty of space in the kitchen and living room, with dog beds and lots of toys throughout the house. I do my best to keep your fur-babies on the same schedule they have when they're at home. Don't worry about if you have a velcro or anxious baby because it is rare that the pets are home alone! As for house sitting and drop-ins, I fit your pet's needs into my own schedule. At most I will leave for 1-3hrs to check on my pets at home. When I leave, I make your home is left as if I was never there. No matter the service I send many pictures so you can stay updated on your pet's well-being! If you have questions, feel free to reach out! I look forward to working with you to give your pets all the care they need while you're busy or away.
About: I've cared for over 15 different dog breeds since I was 10 years old, from high energy hunting dogs to cozy lap snugglers. Friends and family have trusted me with their beloved pets for years. With 8 years in animal welfare, I understand behavior and emotions, including noise fears, nervousness with new people, leash reactivity, resource guarding, seniors, puppies, and special needs pets. I also care for cats of all personalities independent explorers, playful toy lovers, and devoted snugglers. My goal is to give your pet a safe, loving, stress free home where they feel truly cared for while you're away. Each dog in my care receives personalized attention and love. For daycare and boarding, I limit to two dogs at a time to ensure quality care while they are in a new environment. When house sitting in your home, I can happily care for up to four dogs, keeping everyone safe, comfortable, and happy in their own home. I’m happy to provide photo updates, and our home is fully prepared for play, rest, and supervision. I’m home during the day, which allows me to provide pets with consistent attention, companionship, and enrichment. Every pet in my care enjoys a healthy balance of play, mental stimulation, walks, and quiet time to rest and recharge. Evenings are cozy and relaxed, filled with gentle supervision and snuggles, so pets feel safe, happy, and loved from morning to night. I have a fully fenced yard with secure gate locks to keep pets safe, and I’m happy to make adjustments using leads or harnesses for curious or adventurous pups. I also maintain an up-to-date list of urgent care and emergency veterinary clinics throughout the metro area for added peace of mind. Potential clients are always welcome to schedule a video home tour to see the setup and environment their pet would be in. My home allows for kenneling if needed, and I can provide large and extra large crates. I also offer separate spaces for feeding time and am located near several nearby parks for walks. For cats, I can provide a quiet, separate space if they need time to decompress. In addition to care in my home, I also offer house sitting so pets can remain comfortable in their own environment and routines. I’m located about 15 minutes from MSP Airport, which many traveling pet parents find convenient for drop-off and pick-up. Street parking is available in the area, and rideshares to the airport are typically around $20.
“Marykay stayed at our home with our two dogs while we were out of town and was fantastic. I could tell she really cared for my dogs and gave them lots of love and attention. They were not anxious at all when I got home which is my sign that they had a relaxing experience. Highly recommend Marykay!”

“Sophia did an absolutely amazing job with my dog, Leo! She sent updates and photos every day. I would absolutely trust Sophia with Leo again - she went really above and beyond! Thank you so much Sophia - I would recommend her to anyone for dogsitting/housesitting!!”

“Jackie took care of our dogs in our home while we were away on vacation. She was really fantastic! Our dogs were well taken care of. They got their usual exercise. Jackie sent us daily updates and pictures. She also went above and beyond having to clean up after a sick dog one evening. She left our house spotless. Thank you, Jackie! Our pooches look forward to spending more time in the future with you.”

“Sabrina stayed at our house for a long weekend to take care of our three large dogs. She followed all of our instructions and made sure our dogs were happy and safe while we were gone. We loved getting pics and updates to know that everyone was doing well. It was so nice coming home to a clean house and happy dogs ? Thanks Sabrina!”

“Penny was very easy to work with and my dog was very relaxed around her. She had no problem doing anything I asked was very sensitive to my dog’s needs.”
“Cristina is awesome! She took Calvin out and threw his ball for him, snuggled in bed in the morning, and sent me plenty of pictures and updates! Have Cristina watch your dog, you won't be sorry!”

“Leaving our energetic standard poodle with Jessica felt like we were leaving him with a close friend. We were away for two weeks and we didn’t worried about him once. Jessica kept in touch just the right amount and from her texts and photos we could see that Charley was get plenty of exercise and love and he likes a lot of both. We and Charley look forward to having her dog sit again.”

“Rachel was courteous, professional, didn't cancel, and provided daily updates. I have a difficult trio of pets and she managed to handle them all - Two dogs and a bird. Really appreciated her professionalism for me to be able to take a trip and leave them in good care.”

“Josephine was wonderful! She took very good care of our dogs and home and was in daily contact with us. She’s very sweet and reliable, and our dogs loved her!! I would leave Teddy & Lily with her any day. We can’t wait to have her again!”

“Savannah watched my dogs and cat in my home while I was away for a long weekend. I've got two active pups and an asthmatic cat. She was very communicative and sent pictures throughout the weekend. She made sure my pups had plenty of walks and snuggles, and she even administered my cat's inhaler. I felt very comfortable leaving my pets with her and will definitely use her services again.”

Ericsson pet parents share their Rover experiences
Carmen did a great job taking care of Pete over the weekend!! She sent photos and updates, and stayed on track with giving him his meds and going for walks. Carmen was friendly, quick to respond/easy to communicate with, and I came home to a very tidy house and a happy dog!! Hope to have her help again in the future!!

Anika took care of our dog, Keri, and our home for 10 days land 9 nights. We came home to a contented pup. The weather was severely cold while we were away (many days well below zero degrees) and Anika was diligent about putting Keri’s warm jacket on her when she went outside to do her business in the yard or —- when it was sunny enough—when she took her for a walk. She sent us photos of Keri nearly every day. We plan to ask Anika to take care of Keri again in the future, and we highly recommend her as a dog (and house) sitter.

Corey helped take care of our two rascal and rambunctious dogs, Cino and Tofu. He did such a great job and keeping us up to date with exercise, playtime and any issues that might have occurred while we were away. One of our dogs has a minor case of epilepsy and has seizures from time to time due to stress and Corey was professional at handling and managing that for us and our dog. They seemed to love his company and were quite relaxed and happy when we arrived back from our trip. That to us, means they had plenty of stimulation and were in excellent care with someone like Corey.

Eleanor is wonderful, she took care of my two very sensitive, small dogs for 9 days and did a fantastic job. She is responsible, trustworthy and has a lot of experience. She regularly sent pictures and videos and made me feel at ease leaving my babies at home while I was gone. Not only did she take good care of my two dogs, but also of the entire house.
Mary was fantastic with our reactive 2.5 yr old Aussidoodle, Jimi. But we really needed her presence for our 18 yr old Tuxedo cat, Sal. She was patient and followed the convoluted feeding regime of Sal's. We were worry-free with Mary at our house over the holidays. Thanks so much, Mary!
Courtney was soooo great! Our fur babies were happy and peaceful upon our arrival home from a lengthy trip. That speaks volumes to how well they were cared for and how well they transitioned into Courtney’s care. She sent regular updates and photos which helped our anxiety being away from them! We will definitely use Courtney again if the need arises.

Aissatou took GREAT care of our 10-year-old English bulldog. She administered her meds multiple times a day and kept us updated during our absence. She clearly cares about animals and was great to work with. Would absolutely book her again to care for our dog and stay in our home.

We were so grateful for Ariana's flexibility when we went out of town last minute. She took wonderful care of our two dogs, walking them and making them feel comfortable while we were away. Communication was easy, and we would definitely book with her again!

Amanda was an excellent Rover for our older dog and cat. She catered to their unique needs, and gave them plenty of attention! When we arrived home you could tell that they had been well cared for in our absence. She stayed at our house throughout. The house was spotless on our return. Amanda even shoveled while we were gone!! Her communication was excellent throughout the stay, and even before as we were coordinating. I would HIGHLY recommend Amanda!!
