About: I love helping owners and families feel confident that their dog is happy, safe, and comfortable, whether with me for a daily walk or when entering your home to visit with them. I grew up living with dogs from the age of 5, adopting and caring for 7 dogs over 3+ decades, including my current pup, super senior Arthur. I have experience owning dogs of all ages - puppies to elders, and various sizes - 8 to 60 lbs. I am comfortable working with dogs who are timid, high-energy, or anywhere in between. I also have experience addressing special dietary needs and giving medication. I am a reliable communicator and will keep you informed of your dog's wellbeing with regular updates. I will treat your home and all who live there with respect and kindess. I believe it is a privilege to own, care for, and love a pet, and I have gotten a lot of joy from the dogs in my life over the years. I'm eager to meet yours! I have a part-time, remote work schedule that allows me the flexibility to dictate my own schedule. I rarely have unexpected meetings, appointments, or travel in my schedule. I always ensure that pets - new or known to me - feel comforted and safe in my presence. I match their energy and needs, and lead with calmness when meeting any new animal. I never make assumptions about other peoples' pets and consistently use any feedback or guidelines provided to bring the best care. I err on the side of caution when working with all animals, ensuring that their safety and comfort is paramount, as is my own.

“Reagan is honestly the greatest. Prompt, a good communicator, extremely kind, and very accommodating are just some of the things I love about her. When she stayed overnight in my home she left it cleaner than I did! I have many pets and she followed all directions perfectly. Cannot recommend highly enough. Thank you for everything, Reagan ♥️ hope to see you soon!”

About: Hi! I'm a lifelong dog lover who grew up with dogs ranging from 75 to 165 pounds, so I'm comfortable with larger breeds and all the unique personalities that come with them. Over the years, I've also dog sat for friends, family, and others, and I genuinely love getting to know each dog's individual quirks and routines. I care for every dog as if they were my own. I enjoy taking dogs on two walks a day and making sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and love. If your pup is a snuggle bug, they can expect lots of cuddles! If they prefer their own space, I'm happy to follow their lead. I'm also comfortable administering medications and following any specific routines or care instructions to help your dog feel safe, happy, and at home. I love spoiling my furry guests because they're on vacation too! Please bring your dog's food, treats, and any favorite toys or comfort items so I can help make their stay feel familiar and extra special. If my calendar says I'm unavailable, feel free to send me a message anyway. I'm flexible when I can be and am always happy to see if we can find a time that works. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member! I am a social worker and work in and out of the house throughout the week and home most weekends. We have a fenced yard and love the freedom to play with the dogs and let them run around. I like to take care of basic needs and when allowed by owners, I like to spoil them with playing in our fenced yard and snuggles

“Will took excellent care of our dogs. He made sure to check on them, give them ample play time, and ensure they had water. We have two English Mastiffs, one of whom is young, so we really appreciate having someone who is confident with large, adolescent dogs. On top of it all, he’s an excellent photographer and took a lot of great photos! We are excited to use his services again in the future and would highly recommend him to others.”

“Alexandra did a great job caring for our two rambunctious and kind of difficult dogs. This was the first time we used a dog sitter that wasn’t a family member and our pups were well cared for and happy and comfortable when we returned! The house was also just as we left it, which is a bonus. Thanks for spending time with them!”

Kristi W.

“At first we had a hiccup on day one, however, afterwards Briana was a great sitter and communicated when she was arriving and providing us updates on our little fur babies and sent us photos of them every check while we were out of town. Great experience with Briana and she also drove in the deep snow and we were appreciated for her to make out to feed and visit our little fur babies. Great experience for us!”

About: For over 5 years, I've been the go-to pet caretaker for many in my community. From energetic puppies to wise senior dogs, I've had the joy of caring for them all. My experience spans walking, feeding, bathing, and even some basic training. Every pet is unique, and I pride myself on recognizing and attending to each one's individual needs. Whether your fur baby needs patience, energy, or a gentle touch, I'm here to provide it. Balancing a remote job gives me the flexibility and opportunity to dedicate substantial time to pet care. I’m fervent about ensuring our furry companions get ample play and attention. I am open for boarding on weekends, and my weekdays post 11am are entirely devoted to caring for pets. Rest assured, your pets will enjoy ample time of fun and care with me! Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets. In my home, I've created a pet-friendly environment, free from hazards and with plenty of play space. All pets have access to clean, comfortable resting spots and fresh water at all times. If I'm taking care of pets in your home, I'm respectful of your space and follow all guidelines provided. My goal is to ensure that whether I'm in your home or you entrust your pet in mine, they are safe, happy, and well cared for.

About: I’v had 2 cats, a german sheaperd & a husky mix. I also lived with both cats & dogs while with roommates & of course have been around many pets of family & friend’s. Currently, I have an elder pitbull named Ladybird with my partner. I am a big home-body who helps care for disabled people few times of week in the evening (usually 4pm-9pm). Other than that, I am usually available short notice & have plenty of time for check-ins to work with you & your pet. -Will always keep leashed when out -Understands pets come with many different personalities & will try to adapt to offer them the most comfort. I know it’s not any easy time for your pets or you to be away from eachother.

About: With 12 years of experience caring for both dogs and cats, I bring a lifetime of love, patience, and understanding to every furry friend I meet. Growing up in a pet-loving family, I had the joy of bonding with cats and dogs alike, and now I have a sweet pup of my own who continues to teach me every day. I’ve worked with dogs of all ages—from playful puppies to wise seniors—and have some training experience that helps me connect with each pet’s unique needs and personality. To me, animals are the most precious beings, and they deserve more than just basic care—they deserve to be loved, respected, and pampered. I will always go out of my way to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and at home, as if they were my own! Even though my job comes with an unusual and ever-changing schedule, pet care is always a top priority in my life. I make it a point to plan around the pets I care for—ensuring they get all the love, attention, and consistency they need. Whether it’s making time for a walk, a cuddle session, or just being there when they need company, I’m fully committed to giving every pet in my care the same love and attention I give my own. Flexibility is part of my lifestyle, and it allows me to show up for your pets when you need me most! I care for my own dog with daily walks, lots of playtime, and all the cuddles he could ever want—he’s truly part of the family! That same level of love and attention is what I bring to every pet I care for. And while my dog is friendly and well-socialized, I completely understand that every pet has different comfort levels. If your pet needs space or a more private experience, I can easily keep them separated to ensure they feel safe, relaxed, and right at home!

“Lucia is just the best. She is friendly and dependable. I always feel better about leaving my cat for the weekend knowing Lucia is checking in on her and giving her some love!”

“Caroline did an excellent job taken care of my cats, she followed my instructions perfectly, and gave me daily updates, and even checked in with me after I got home. I will definitely rehire her as I know my cats are in good care.”

About: Hello, my name is Claire. I have been lucky enough to grow up surrounded by dogs and cats, and have pet sat many times for friends and family. Because of this, I have learned to care for animals at every stage of life. My experience ranges from command and walk training for puppies, to adhering to a regimented medicine routine for senior dogs, to doing daily playtime and pet waste clean-up. I am very tidy, organized, and am happy to adapt to you and your pets' needs. I also love to spend time outside, so I can promise plenty of walks and safe outside time for your pet. I'm excited to meet and care for your furry friend! I am a graduate student at the U of Minnesota, but I will have time outside of class for your dogs. I am most available to stay over on Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday nights, as well as Wednesday and Friday during the day. On weekdays, I will be out for several hours at school in the middle of the day, but will be available for drop in visits or walks during the morning and late afternoon. While I do not offer boarding pets in my home, I am happy to do home visits that adhere to your pets' routine. I will respect what time they typically eat meals, wake up, play, go outside, and walk, as well as where they sleep in your home. I will also ensure that your home is kept clean during my stay.

About: My husband and our family have been watching dogs on Rover since before it was even called Rover. We've lived overseas a few times so if you see gaps in our reviews, that is why. We are very active with our doggie guests and would love to host your dog. We typically go on walks once a day and on weekends typically try to be outside more (as the winter weather permits). We're open to requests to take your pup to dog parks, bike rides, or walks depending on your pup's preferences. Note: you will typically see delayed responses past 9PM but will get back to you as soon as I see your messages. Thanks! Both my husband and I work full time M-F but I work from home and would be able to take bathroom breaks or walks mid-day. If you needed someone to stop by and let your dog out, it would have to be within the Columbia Heights, Fridley, Shoreview area. We have a fenced in yard in the back that we take out the dogs to hang, throw a ball, or relax. Inside the house we leave it open range as long as your pup can handle no accidents, no chewing the kids' stuffies (it's hard I know!), etc. When we are gone, we do like to crate our visitors so they don't get into mischief while we are gone.

“Hannah was excellent in all the details and I will use her again!”
