About: I’m a animal love person every animal I have had has been a rescue animal and adoption. I love to take dogs for walk, throw toys for them. I treat the animals like there my own. After a fun day outside with them, they can relax by getting a bath. I donate to animal shelters and sell homemade dog treats.. I have 30 years dealing with parrots. I had 10 parrots of my own. I’m home everyday I give a hundred percent to the pets. I have a vehicle that can take them to talk parks. When I take dogs outside I go with them to give them company. I have a fenced yard, toys, I have televisions throughout the house I play animal plant all day for them, when it’s hot out I don’t keep them out long, I bring them in to give them water and treats.

About: I’ve done pet sitting jobs growing up, I always had pets growing up that I helped take care of. My 8 month old son also loves dogs. We are a very pet friendly family and hope to get a dog of our own one day. Prefer dogs that are good with kids I’m currently a stay at home mom so me and my son would love to help you by taking care of your animal and giving it some love I have a park really close to me that I can take your pet to on walks. It can hangout and play with us. I have no other dogs or cats.

About: Hi there! I’m currently a veterinary assistant with three years of hands-on experience, and caring for animals truly brings me joy. My goal is to make sure your pets feel safe, loved, and have lots of fun while in my care—whether that means going for a hike, playing fetch, or simply relaxing on the couch (if that’s okay with you!). I’m very comfortable administering medications and supporting any extra medical needs your pet may have, thanks to my background in veterinary care. In our home, we have one friendly pup who loves meeting new furry friends. I’m also a nursing student, but my classes are only a few hours a day, so I’m home most of the time and available to give your pets plenty of attention and affection. I’m happy to keep you updated with as many photos and messages as you’d like—it’s important to me that you feel completely at ease while your pets are with me. Let’s work together to create a warm, safe space where your pets can feel right at home! I have class a few times a week, but very much spend a majority of my time at home, there are quite a few weeks I’m also available! When they are at my home whether for daycare or boarding I take my dog on a 1.5-3 mile walk through our quiet town of Courtland. If weather permits I like to go to Flandrau or Fort Ridgley state park if your dog would enjoy that! I also have a backyard that I would be happy to play fetch in with your pets as well!

About: My experience comes from life. I’ve taken care of bunnies, reptiles, cats, and dogs. For dogs specifically, I worked at a doggy daycare before moving here, and before that, I watch many of my family friends' animals while they went camping or traveling. I have a lot of experience with all kinds of dogs including Great Danes, senior cats and dogs along with lots of puppies. I’ve also had a bit of training experience with puppies. As far as bunnies go, my roommate for a year has bunnies, and some friends from home do too. While living with my roommate, I’ve watched her bunnies many times while she was away. My best friend has reptiles that I’ve fed and taken care of as well. Since leaving the doggy daycare and moving, I have truly missed the joy of connecting and building bonds with animals, and there’s nothing like having the pet parents proud or happy with the work you’ve done. I am currently working part time so I’m very flexible on time. Mornings before 10 are almost always completely open. My shifts go for 5 hours maximum when I do work. I minimum like to spend 30 minutes with any animal to be sure all of their needs are met however, if it looks like the animal wants more, I end up staying for an extra 10-15 minutes so the animal can also gain a level of comfortability with me. I like to leave knowing that the animal is cared for but more so content with the attention and love that they deserve to have every day.

About: We've had dogs since when my husband and I first got married, in about 2006. We've lived in our wonderful home for about five years. We've got a beautiful 2-acre yard with a small fenced-in area next to the house. There is plenty of room to fetch and explore, and lots of wonderful trails nearby. We can take your pup to the river, or on a stroll through town! We have five kids that love animals, and we homeschool, so we are home most days to love on your pet. My two oldest love taking care of animals, and they have plenty of time on their hands for drop-ins or dog walking. I will always be there with them, but they are totally willing to do it, and if they aren't available, I'll gladly take care of it. We are home most of the time, with a couple days leaving for a few hours, so the dogs will get lots of free time to chill on the dog bed or at our feet. When we are gone though, the dogs will be kenneled alongside our pooches in their own comfy crate. During the summer, our dogs will hang out with us on the deck or get attached to a lead while we garden or run around. During rain or snow though, your pet will get a daily walk (or more) and time to play in the side yard! We have a fenced yard and plenty of room for your dog to lounge comfortably around our house. Typically we exercise our dogs once a day, but we are totally willing to accommodate. They get fed twice a day, once in the morning and once at night, although sometimes they'll sneak a little food out of us. At night, your dog will most likely be kenneled in our basement. We ask that you bring your own kennel. We don't make many exceptions, and none for young dogs. Our kids absolutely love animals, so your pet will get all the love they could every need, with lots of hugs and kisses. If that's not what your dog is into to, our kids will totally understand that and will give your dog the space they need!

About: Hi there! My name is Grace M and I'm a current educator who is available for weekend services OR weekday services, as long as they do not interfere with school hours (7am-4pm) I had a dog for 15 years of my life! Once I was old enough I was able to care for him when my parents were away and whenever I was home. Unfortunately, he passed now, but I went on to adopt two cats who I love very much - one is 5 and one is 2. I've done walks, I've stayed overnight, I've checked in at homes, I do what I can to make sure animals are taken care of in the most efficient way possible! I will make sure your pets enjoy the time that I am with them and I will make sure that you can put them into care that you can trust! As a teacher, I am unavailable during the work week between the hours of 7am to 4pm. I can do any walks or drop ins after those hours. Otherwise, I am free on the weekends, which includes Friday evenings! I have enough toys, trees, and scratchers to make sure my kitties stay entertained and happy. Scheduled feeding and clean litter boxes to make sure everyone stays healthy :)

“Thank you for handling my dog's so well. They were comfortable with you and happy and your services are greatly appreciated. I love my dog's as they are part of my family and I don't hand them over easily so, thank you.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs all through my life, including chihuahuas, a yorkie, pit bulls, a dachshund mix, labs, rat terriers, and more. I love to create warm environments for doggos and give them space to be themselves. I currently work part time, but I can pet sit Fridays-Sundays and Thursday afternoons at times. I may be able to do drop-ins during the week. I can dog sit at the client’s houses and am willing to help crate train, gives baths, walks, and provide other various care services. I might be able to at my apartment, but have a dog myself and would likely need a meet and greet.

About: I have owned between 2-4 dogs my entire life, ranging from small-large in size. I currently have a medium and a large size dog, both are friendly and love to play! My yard is unfenced, but I have access to a dog park just behind my home. I can offer any potty times and feeding times needed! I'm currently working gig work and do not have a steady job. I am home most of the time and can give your furry friend all of the attention they desire! I have 2 dogs that are very friendly and love to play! I live very close to a dog park, as in I can see it from my home! My dogs play in the house constantly, as well as going on regular walks and trips to the dog park!

About: I have been pet sitting for 4 years now, I love it everyday and I hope to expand my little business to more of you. If you have any more questions or want references please let me know. My neighbors just got a new puppy and I help out with her as much as they need. I currently have a job but am available all the time if I’m not working. So far I work Monday thru Friday and times vary. My own dogs have a hidden electric fence and they are very trained in that and they know what happens if they cross the fence. They get shocked. Sometimes they don’t follow that but we are trying are best to keep them in.

About: Hello! My name is Alexa and I will be a senior at MSU in the fall. I love all kinds of dogs and actually work at a doggy daycare. I have 3 golden retrievers at home and miss them dearly so thought this would be perfect to get some extra love from other puppies! I’m here for the summer and looking for more things to keep me busy! I enjoy long walks and just hanging when necessary. I do work part time, however I do know my schedule a few weeks in advance and can schedule activities with you by that. I will make sure the dog is comfortable and fed. I will make sure all gates are closed or crating the dog if necessary. I promise to treat your dog how I would treat mine.

About: I grew up with pets. Since I no longer have my own pets I miss spending time with pets. I started caring for my friends pets and now decided to expand to others. I grew up with dogs as my best friends. I no longer have my own pets as I live in a building that charges extra to have a pet per month. I also like to travel. I am a grandmother of 3 wonderful boys. And I enjoy walking and being outside. I will care for pets at your home. I do not offer pet sitting at my own home as I live in an apartment building that would charge me per month to have a pet.

About: Hi there! I’m Wendy, an animal lover and dedicated pet caregiver with over 2 years of experience in dog walking, pet sitting (cats as well), and overnight care. I believe every pet deserves a loving and safe environment, and I strive to provide just that for your furry family members. I am currently available over the weekends, weekdays, and nights. Free for summer break, so I will be available for extra hours if need be. I customize my services to fit your pet's needs and routines. You’ll receive daily updates and photos, so you won’t miss your furry friend while you’re away. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, from energetic puppies to calm seniors.

About: I have both experience in caring for cats and dogs. I grew up on a farm with tons of animals and have always loved being surrounded by animals. I have one cat of my own and had previously owned a different one that had passed away. I love going on walks with dogs and snuggling with them. Currently I work Monday through Friday 8am - 4:30pm. I do have an hour lunch break during the day in which I could stop by a home and let a dog out for a bathroom break. I work to make my home an environment that any pet would love. I currently have a cat and have lots of scratchers and catnip toys around for him to play with. I make it a priority to make sure his needs are met at all times. I am very attentive with his health and monitor to make sure he is acting himself. We play together a lot when I am home and I enjoy taking him out on his harness with a leash so he can be outside with me to soak up some sunshine.

About: Hello! Thanks for checking out my page. My passion and love for animals has lead me to about 5 years of experience of watching dogs and cats. I’ve also volunteered at my local veterinarian to because animals are so special. I’m very excited to be able to assist you as well as spend time with your babies! I am no stranger when it comes to taking care of animals. As my family has had many dogs and cats. Currently we have 7 animals. 5 cats and 2 dogs. I work well with animals of any size. I can deal with a tiny Yorkie to a St. Bernard.You can be sure that if your pets are in my care they will be well-loved and taken care of! I am currently working part time, with my hours normally being 2-8:30. I work every other weekend 6-2:30. I do have breaks within my shifts. So I would be able to leave and take your pet out if needed! I will always provide the right type and amount of food according to your pet's dietary needs. I will ensure fresh water is always available. I understand that dogs might need walks or playtime, while cats may enjoy interactive toys. I am more than comfortable brushing, and bathing if needed.

About: I have raised, trained, and worked dogs of all various types throughout my entire life. I have experience with miniature breeds all the way to the colossal mastiff types, even including MWD's and other types of working K9. I also will gladly look after any species. Spiders, snakes, farm menageries, exotics, birds, and even fish! I currently have open availability throughout the week as I just settled into the area from Alaska. I am able to fully dedicate my time to any and all of your sitter needs including light rotation, mail service, trash service, etc. I strictly adhere to the owners preference while watching your pet in the comfort of your own home. This brings less headache for the owner not having to part out meals, carry beds, treats, and toys to a new place, and the dog gets to happily relax in a familiar spot - lowering anxiety for the pet in the long run.

About: I have grown up with two lovely pups in my house. I helped taking care of them and even helped in training our hunting dog! I love being around animals and especially dogs. I am currently a college student I go to school at the university of Minnesota state Mankato. I am majoring in sports management with a minor in marketing. Moving back to college means I’m away from my dog at home. I am not ready to commit to getting a dog of my own due to living in an apartment, but I wanted the opportunity to be around dogs. So, that’s when I found rover and thought it would be perfect for someone like me! I give a lot of attention to the dogs and of course love to take them on long walks as I am quite active myself.
