“Kathryn was very quick to respond to messages. The dogs did well with her and our cat who doesn’t come out for anyone made an appearance letting her pet him. Will definitely ask for her to stop again in the future.”
“Molly was amazing. She watched my fury crew during the coldest weather and was amazing. Came home to pets excited to me yet relaxed and calm. Highly recommend!”
“I’ve booked with Melody countless times now and my cats seem to have taken a liking to her. I really appreciate that she is always punctual even with a 7am drop in. She is very great at communicating throughout her visits even though I may not be available to answer right away. I’m always grateful that she is usually available for my last minute trips. I highly recommended and I will be booking with her in the future.”
“Alex has been an amazing sitter for me and my pup multiple times now. This past time in particular he went above and beyond in trying to get a hold of me when the door lock would not open. I greatly appreciate his commitment to make sure my pup was well taken care of. I will be booking him again with zero hesitation.”
“Jessica has been fantastic and was a great fit for my dog. I needed her for about a month and each day went very smoothly. I would highly recommend her to anyone using Rover.”
“I never have to worry about my cats when Teresa is pet sitting them. I love getting all of the updates and pictures and it's been great to see my somewhat timid cats come out of their shells with her. I would recommend Teresa to anyone looking for a pet sitter”
“Christy goes above and beyond, her communication is prompt and she went out of her way to help out with some tricky cat care instructions of separating our two cats. She’s very thorough and cares so much about cats and keeping us informed on every detail of the care.”
About: I love doggos and have had Puppers since he was born, and Freckles for 2 years. Both dogs have high energy, so I’ve learned how to handle energetic dogs and provide healthy outlets. I enjoy long walks/hikes through parks and trails, and also have a fenced-in yard. Your fur-baby will get plenty of fresh air and exercise with me. I recently quit my full time job to pursue work outside of an office, so I will be fully dedicated to your dog while they’re with me. I have open availability to walk and play with your pets too! I am creative, energetic, caring, and responsible, so I will meet all of your pet’s needs in a holistic and loving manner. Im a full-time student, taking online classes during the week, so I have a lot of free time and flexibility to care for your pets. I have a fenced in yard and and two friendly dogs to keep your dog company. I’ll make sure your dog’s collar and leash are on correctly before walks and im mindful of our surroundings while I walk.
“This was our first time using Rover and Krista exceeded all of our expectations with her care of our 2 cats. She followed all of our care instructions, gave frequent and thorough updates, and made us feel confident that our cats were safe. We would absolutely work with Krista again for future trips!”
About: I adore dogs, and only work part-time. But my most fun job is caring for dogs! When a dog is in my home, I devote all hours to him/her! Dogs are welcome to cuddle on the sofa, and sleep in my bed. We will take long walks through the parks together, go to dog parks (if permitted), attend dog-friendly farmers' markets, and car rides for short errands, too. I have a fenced-in backyard that is perfect for chasing the ever-present tennis ball and offers prime squirrel watching as well. I have a cat, Iris, but she is very chill with dogs and tends to hang out in her own bedroom or at the top of the cat tree when dogs are present. I currently work part time, approximately 15 hours a week. This leaves me plenty of time to care for your pup with walks, playing, and cuddling! I am prompt, but also very flexible. I will follow your instructions in regard to walks, feeding time, etc...Your pooch is welcome to sleep with me (if allowed). I have fenced-in back yard for fetching and quick potty breaks.
“Addison was absolutely amazing with Phoebe. She was very thorough in her daily updates and always provided lots of pictures. I have a more anxious cat around people and she was very good at respecting her boundaries and listening to her cues. I would definitely recommend Addison to anyone looking for someone to watch their pets while they are away :)”
About: I am a dedicated dog lover with hands-on experience caring for large breeds, especially strong, energetic pups like German Shepherds, Huskies, and other working breeds. I’m comfortable and confident handling dogs who need a calm, steady leader — including those who may be reactive to other dogs, people, or environmental triggers. I also have experience caring for dogs with special medical needs. I have experience applying ointments, eye drops, and administering pills and liquid medicines. I understand that cats have unique personalities and routines, and I’m comfortable with everything from feeding schedules and litter box care to administering medications and giving space to shy or independent cats. I provide calm, attentive care and make sure every pet feels safe, respected, and comfortable in their own home while you’re away. I like to be transparent when I take care of other peoples fur babies and will often share updates via text with added videos and photos of the time I spend with your pet, as well as time stamped detail of feeding, playtime, and potty updates. Pet care is a planned and consistent part of my daily and weekly routine. I organize my schedule to ensure I have dedicated time for walks, drop-ins, feeding, play, and companionship without feeling rushed. I build in flexibility to accommodate different pet needs, including early mornings, evenings, and weekends when needed. Because I plan my time carefully, I’m able to be reliable, punctual, and fully present for every pet in my care. I care for pets by following their established routines as closely as possible to help them feel safe and comfortable. In my client’s home, I make sure feeding schedules, walks, playtime, litter box care, and medications are handled exactly as instructed. I take time to understand each pet’s personality, energy level, and any behavioral or medical needs. For dogs, I focus on safe, structured walks, positive reinforcement, and calm handling. For cats, I provide attentive care while respecting their boundaries, keeping their environment clean, and offering affection at their comfort level. I always prioritize safety, clear communication, and leave detailed updates so pet parents feel confident their pets are in good hands.
“Juli was a perfect dog sitter. Mac took to her right away. She took him for walks and took very good care of him and he was healthy and happy when we got home. I would definitely hire her again. Thanks much!”
About: I’ve had animals all my life, currently have 2 yr old lab mix that keeps me on my toes! We both enjoy being outside or at the park! Currently working from home full time, plenty of extra time and energy for more animals in life. My hours are from 7-5 Monday through Friday. Yard and smaller house in north Minneapolis, available for short term in home boarding. Walking and in home drop in’s would need to outside these hours!
“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: I have experience with (and love) dogs and cats; old and young, big and small. I have experience walking, feeding, and administering meds for both dogs and cats, as well as supervising groups of both large dogs and small/medium dogs. I have four cats, as well as experience caring for cats in pet hotel and cat-sitting settings. I've always valued making new furry friends since I was little, and I can't wait to work with yours! I work from home and can easily make time in the mornings and late afternoons/evenings, so visits are no problem to schedule. I do travel a little for work, but I’ll keep an eye on my availability calendar and input those dates a few weeks out whenever possible. We live in a very walkable neighborhood with a parkway, so leashed walks are always an option. There’s also a fenced dog park nearby, so if your dog likes other dogs we can hang out there.

Folwell pet parents share their Rover experiences
Krista is a genuinely cheerful person who truly loves animals, and it shows. She is incredibly professional and precise, following all my briefing instructions perfectly and managing a somewhat complex key-handover without any issues. Not only did she ensure that food, water, and the litter box were always perfectly clean, but she also spent time giving my cat long, fun play sessions. I felt completely at ease leaving my cat in her hands
Given that my dog is blind and relatively energetic, finding someone reliable I can trust to care for her is extremely important to me. During our booking, Briana was extremely kind, professional, and responsive. It’s clear she is an all-around animal lover who understands the importance of catering to an animal’s specific needs. 10/10 would recommend!
We had to find a sitter for our cats during an emergency, and we truly couldn’t have asked for anyone better than Sofia! She responded to us right away and was more than willing to care for our three kitties while we were out of the country. She has done an amazing job spending time with them, feeding them, giving them their medications, and even cleaning up around the house to keep everything tidy. We could also see how comfortable and happy our cats were with her, which says a lot that she’s clearly a true cat person! Sofia has also been incredibly flexible with our schedules and very respectful of our home and space. We highly recommend her, and we will absolutely book with her again whenever she’s available!
Kiah was just wonderful with my 5 month old puppy who has a major separation anxiety. She was very sweet and patient going on walks with him and playing with his toys as well as calming him down and making sure he is not nervous that I was gone for a few hours. I highly recommend Kiah! She is very nice and responsible, and great with the dogs :)
Bec does a great job caring for our cats while we’re away and they are always my first choice for cat sitting. They’re always on time and share lots of photos. They even make our shy cat feel comfortable when we’re not around. Highly recommend Bec for cat sitting!
Jessica was a fabulous caretaker of my frail CKD kitty. She followed all of my instructions to a "T" and shared daily updates and photos of Max Kitty. Sadly, Max has since passed away. I'm comforted knowing that Jessica provided such tender care near the end of Max's life when I had to leave town on short notice. I'd definitely recommend Jessica to care for any pet.
Teresa is a reliable and thoughtful pet sitter. She consistently followed our instructions and visited our cat at the same time each day, which helped maintain a reassuring routine. During every visit, she made sure food and water were properly managed, and she spent quality time playing with and grooming our cat. We also appreciated the clear and concise updates she sent after each visit. they gave us real peace of mind while we were away.
Anne always took such good care of our cat Piper. She gave us complete peace of mind, was very communicative and very professional. We recently moved away from the area so we are sad to lose such a great pet caretaker. Anne is the absolute best! Highly highly recommend!
