“Olivia was absolutely wonderful!!! This was our first time having someone petsit for us through Rover and we were pretty nervous. We have an anxious Aussie, two older cats and two ferrets - so it's a lot. She immediately eased my nerves by sending lots of pictures and updates the entire stay and the pets warmed right up to her! Also it was SO NICE to come back from vacation and she had tidied up the house and brought in our packages for us. She will definitely be our #1 choice for taking care of our pets from here on out.”
“Carolina was a life saver when I had daycare plans fall through for my puppy land on a holiday no less. She stepped in last minute and took fantastic care of my little guy! Would highly recommend her.”
“Ashley was an excellent house/dog sitter! Our pup was clearly well taken care of, she spent lots of time playing and walking him. We appreciated the routine updates and she left the house clean and secured. Glad to know we can work with her again!”
About: I have had pets most of my life. I've experienced the highs and lows of loving another critter. I would love the opportunity to be a positive for your critter, pup, or cat while you are away. I will provide loving care and attention to your loved ones. I am an elementary teacher. I am able to travel to your location before work (7am) and after work (3pm) most week days and available for weekend beginning Friday at 3pm until I have a large 4' and 5' fenced yard with trees on a nice corner lot. Lots of space for running, playing, and lounging in the shade or bathing in in sunlight.
“Emerson did a wonderful job caring for our dog and bunny while we were on vacation! Our dog is very anxious and can be quite a handful - he was very patient and understanding with her. Highly recommend!”
“Not only did she do an amazing job taking care of our pup. She also washed her sheets. Took care of everything in the house that she possibly could and was a great communicator keeping us informed and sending lots of fun pictures. We were 100% be booking her again for future travels.”
“Rebecca took excellent care of our pup and house while we were on a 2-week vacation. Our dog was so happy and content, she hardly noticed when we arrived back home. And our house was every bit a clean and today as we left it. I highly recommend!!”
“Tiffany did a great job taking care of my corgi, Leo! She came over in advance of my 9-day trip to meet us and it was easy to see she had an immediate great rapport with Leo. Each day I was on my trip, she gave him plenty of attention, exercise, and playtime. I could tell that Leo really enjoyed his time with her. Tiffany was very communicative throughout my time away. She checked in when she had questions and sent pictures and videos so that I could see all was going well. I would recommend her to others that are looking for someone to take care of their dog!”
“Sofia is very sweet and respectful. She communicates well, and cares about your pets. She sent pictures and kept me up to date on what was going on. She gave meds on time and sat with the pugs to comfort them. I will definitely want to have her stay anytime we have to leave our babies home.”
“Abigail was wonderful to work with and we definitely appreciated her flexibility when our plans suddenly changed. The fur babies certainly seemed to warm up to her nicely!”
About: I have a cat of my own and I’ve grown up with pets for all of my life. I have experience giving medication to both cats and dogs. I can brush or groom your pet if needed and if they have any specific needs I can tend to as well. I’m currently unemployed so I can spend full days or nights at the house with your pet if needed or stop in multiple times a day to let them out or bring them on walks. I have a cat where I live full time I feed him, play with him, and clean the litter box as needed When he has needed meds i give them to him without trouble When I had dogs in the past I had experience grooming them, walking them, picking up after them, and giving them medications as they got older
“Gretchen was a great communicator and took wonderful care of our house and pup. The house was sparkling clean when we returned from our trip. She had to put up with some crazy cold weather for dog walks while we were gone, but she kept our beast entertained despite it.”
“Samantha was wonderful! Very communicative and took notes when first meeting our animals. Left our house in lovely condition and was very respectful! Our animals were well cared for when we got back. Even our shy cat came out to say hello and get pets!”
“Noelle was fantastic! Our girls loved her - our dane is skittish around new people and she went right up to Noelle the first time she met her. We received daily pictures, the dogs got daily walks and Noelle even cleaned up the house and did laundry before she left. I highly recommend Noelle and we will definitely use her again.”
“Nina was great with my little anxious pup, Freddie! She was very comforting while I was away on a trip, sending daily pics and updates. She responded quickly every time. She even noticed him getting allergies as well as started teaching him a new trick. I will be booking Nina again when I’m looking for a sitter.”
“Sergio was great! He did in-home dog care for our two dogs and followed the schedule, walked them every day, and cleaned the house before we got home. His calm energy was perfect for our quirky furry guys. Highly recommend him for your pet sitting needs!”
“Haley was an amazing pet sitter! She took such great care of both our dog and our cat while we were away, and it gave us so much peace of mind. She kept us updated with photos and messages, which we really appreciated and loved receiving. When we got home, the house was spotless! Our pets were happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. I would absolutely recommend Haley to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and trustworthy pet sitter, and we’ll definitely be booking her again.”

Anika was wonderful! I couldn’t be more grateful for connecting with her. This was our first time leaving our senior dog with someone other than a family member and I was very nervous about it. Our meet and greet put me at ease and I was able to enjoy the time away with no worries. She sent pictures and updates. She was very respectful of our home. I will definitely connect with her again.
Amyah took care of Tucker for 1.5 days while we had a quick trip out of town. She was willing to meet ahead of time for a brief meet-n-greet to get acquainted. During the booking, Amyah kept in touch with pictures and messages, which was appreciated. Thanks Amyah!
Jessica was amazing! We have a nervous dog that usually takes awhile to warm up to new people, but he took to her right away! She took him on multiple walks and took great care of him in our home. She also sent multiple updates and pictures so we had great piece of mind while we were gone knowing he was comfortable and well taken care of. I highly recommend her, we will definitely be booking with her again!!
Connie is an absolute treasure. We are so thankful for her putting our minds at ease while we took a family vacation. This was the first time we used a pet sitting service and were blown away by her kindness and professionalism. We knew our two pups and kitty were treated like family and that means SO much to a pet owner when you are away. Thanks Connie! 🫶
If you're looking for a reliable caring person to watch out for your four-legged family member Camryn is an excellent choice. Not only did she treat my sprocket like her own, but she also did an amazing job house sitting. Her attention to detail was excellent. She went above and beyond her obligations and was really just a class act from start to finish. I'd gladly use her again in the future.
Jennifer took great care of our dogs while we were gone and our house. Dogs were happy when we returned house was cleaned up. Jennifer sent pictures and updates to us a few times a day. Would definitely ask her to watch our pups again if we have need thanks Jennifer for taking good care of our canine family members while we were gone!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Fridley is $70 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $33 and $84 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 3,468 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Fridley. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Fridley walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Fridley maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Fridley choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.
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 pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet 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.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Fridley. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
