“Joy sent us frequent updates, photos and videos. She had fantastic communication and flexibility. Her home and yard was set up perfectly for pets and even had a doggy door into her fenced yard, which I just know our dog loved! Upon picking up our dog, she was so excited and happy to see us - but also went to give love to Joy when she knew she would be coming home now - which speaks a lot to how much she enjoyed her stay with Joy. Joy also helped administer meds 2x a day for our doggo with allergies. She also went out of her way to bring our dog to the park to free run (after asking permission!) and sent videos which was amazing to see while we were away on vacation. We will 100000% use Joy’s services again in the future and highly recommend her!”

“Penni and her daughter were able to take care of my standard poodle, Fluffy, for about a week this summer. They were able to take her at a short notice, and I have been so pleased with how everything worked out. We received regular updates and pictures about how Fluffy was doing. (She even learned some new tricks!). Drop-off and pick-up were very easy, and Fluffy was returned to us the same happy dog that she was when I dropped her off.”

“Amanda was great with Sammy! She has a fenced in backyard, took him outside for walks, and sent lots of pictures, videos, and updates. She was always quick to respond to my texts and was also very flexible with drop off and pick up times. Her two dogs are very friendly and Sammy seemed to very much enjoy his time with Amanda and her pups. Would definitely recommend!”

About: Hi! I’m Eva, I'm a professional dog trainer and owner of Crockett K9 Services here in Fergus Falls. Boarding happens in my home environment, and each dog's day is scheduled around their individual needs for exercise, rest, meals, and routine. I take dogs of any breed, size, age, or behavioral concern, and I have experience administering medication and caring for dogs with health concerns. I pay close attention to detail, so feeding instructions, meds, and house rules are followed exactly. You'll get regular photo updates so you always know how your dog is doing! I'm home all day, so your pet is never left alone for long stretches. My days run on a routine built around the animals: training sessions, play time, exercise, meals, and scheduled downtime. Your dog or cat's day gets structured around their needs, not squeezed into mine! Dogs sleep in kennels at night and get scheduled kennel downtime during the day! If your dog does not go good in a kennel, please let me know and we can arrange care to your pet’s needs. I do day trips to parks on request, plus regular walks. There are plenty of toys and enrichment for both dogs and cats during their stay. If your pet does better solo, I can keep animals separated.

About: I've always been the one friends and family call when they need someone to watch their dogs, and I've loved every minute of it. I never had a dog growing up because of allergies in my family, so this is my way of getting my dog fix! I love spending time with dogs, whether it's going for walks, playing, or just hanging out. I'll make sure your pup gets lots of attention, love, and care while you're away. I currently work full-time, but I'm available before and after work during the week and have open availability on the weekends. My available schedule is: Monday–Thursday: Before 7:30 AM Monday: 1:30-2:30pm Monday: After 7:00 PM Tuesday & Thursday: After 2:00 PM Wednesday: After 4:30 PM Friday–Sunday: Available all day I'm happy to work with you to find a time that works best! My goal is to keep your pet's routine as normal as possible while you're away, whether that means sticking to their feeding schedule, going on walks, playing, or just giving them plenty of attention and company. I want you to have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy, comfortable, and well cared for in their own home.

About: I grew up on a farm and had animals of all kinds around me. From chickens, cats, dogs, cows, pigs, horses and even lizards - you name it and I've probably helped with it! I'm currently retired and would love to hang out, go for walks and show your family member lots of attention when you aren't able to. We love dogs and live in a quiet lakeside neighborhood with the opportunity for long, lazy walks. We have a crate onsite and can crate as needed.

About: As a fur mom myself and dedicated pet care provider, I understand that your dog is a cherished member of your family. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free environment where your pup feels comfortable, happy, and well cared for while you're away. I treat every dog as if they were my own, giving them plenty of attention, affection, playtime, exercise, and companionship. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playing fetch, cuddling on the couch, or simply relaxing, I'll tailor my care to their unique personality and routine. You can count on me to be dependable, patient, and attentive to your dog's needs. I'll also keep you updated with messages and photos, or even videos so you can enjoy peace of mind knowing your furry baby is happy and in good hands. I look forward to meeting you and your dog and providing the loving care they deserve! Former children daycare provider and now staying home taking up online classes to be a Radiology Tech. Taking online classes gives me a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide dependable pet care throughout the day. Because my coursework can be completed from home and on my own schedule, I have plenty of time for walks, playtime, feeding, potty breaks, and giving pets the attention and companionship they need. Pet sitting fits well with my routine, and I enjoy being able to spend quality time with animals while balancing my studies. Our home is located on a quiet farm, providing a peaceful setting where pets can relax and enjoy plenty of fresh air. I make each pet's safety and comfort my top priorities by following their normal routine for feeding, exercise, and rest. Dogs receive lots of attention, supervised outdoor time in a fenced playground on our front yard,walks or play sessions, and plenty of affection. Inside, they have a clean, comfortable space to rest and feel at home. I understand that every pet has different needs, so I take the time to learn their personality, preferences, and any special instructions you provide. My goal is to create a calm, loving environment where your pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for while you're away.

About: I have never lived without a dog in my life, my family trains hunting dogs so I am very familiar with training and dog behaviors. I currently work two part time jobs, one more part time then the other but I'm available on weekends and wednesdays and weekdays after 3pm. I have one pup of my own who is very friendly and loves to make friends and a large unfenced yard, can crate if needed but the crate would need to be provided.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.

Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.

Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.

During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Evansville home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:

  • Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
  • Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
  • Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Evansville.

<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.

You and your Evansville sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.

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.

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 .

While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.

Many sitters in MN ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.

By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.

If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.

For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.

Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
