“Trinity was awesome with our 20-year.old cat! He has a new friend that feeds and takes care of him.”

“Whitney was absolutely wonderful with our four cats! They have a few extra needs, including medications and one who needs to be kept separate from the others, and Whitney handled everything so attentively and confidently. She went above and beyond to make sure they were well cared for, gave them plenty of attention and pets, and even fixed our microchip feeders when they were giving us trouble. She was incredibly sweet, kind, and communicative throughout her visits, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that she genuinely cared about our cats and their individual needs. We would absolutely hire Whitney again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”

About: I have five years of experience caring for dogs, cats, and small animals for friends, family, and neighbors. I also grew up around animals, so pet care has always been a natural part of my life. I love making sure each pet feels safe, happy, and loved. Pet care fits easily into my day because I’m home and available throughout the day. I enjoy giving pets the time, attention, and care they need to feel happy and comfortable. I make pets feel safe and loved by following their routine, giving them playtime, attention, and keeping their space clean. Whether in my home or theirs, I make sure they’re happy and comfortable.

About: Hi, fellow dog lovers! I’m a proud dog mom to Gracie (pitty) and Odie (french bully) and they are a huge part of why I decided to start pet sitting! Anyone who loves their dogs knows they’re more than pets—they’re family. My love for Gracie and Odie inspired me to share that same love, attention, and care with other pups while giving their families a little more flexibility in their busy lives. I’m just getting started on Rover, and I’m excited to meet new furry friends and their people! Whether your pup needs a potty break, some playtime, a little company, or extra affection while you’re away, I’d love to help make their day brighter. Every dog has their own personality, and I look forward to getting to know what makes your pup special. My goal is simple: to care for and love your pets as if they were an extension of my own family. As a fellow dog parent, I know life gets busy and sometimes you need an extra hand to make sure your pup gets the care and attention they deserve! I’m available for drop-in visits during evenings and weekends, making it easier to fit pet care into your family’s schedule. Whether your dog needs a potty break, dinner, playtime, or simply some company while you’re out, I’d love to help! I’ll coordinate with you ahead of time to find a visit window that works for everyone and make sure your pup’s usual routine stays on track. As a dog mom, I understand how much trust it takes to leave your beloved pup in someone else’s care. I’m starting my Rover journey because I genuinely love dogs and want to help other families feel more flexible and supported when life gets busy. During drop-in visits, I’ll care for your dog in the comfort of their own home, follow your instructions, and respect their routines and individual needs. From meals and fresh water to potty breaks, playtime, and affection, I’ll do my best to make each visit a positive experience. I’ll also share photos and updates so you can check in on your furry family member while you’re away. Your pup deserves to feel safe, comfortable, and loved, and I’ll treat them with the same kindness and care I’d want for my own dogs.

About: Hi I loveee dogs cats and all animals! I loveee every pup and their unique personality’s.

I have an open schedule I can do mornings, afternoons, and evenings and am available daily weekly or occasionally to whatever best fits your needs and schedule! Feel free to set up a meet and great to see if I’m your best match! I prioritize safety and having fun with them I have a pet free down stairs and a big fenced in back yard where your pups can run around supervised! my community has dog friendly trail they can walk if that’s more of your dogs style. I can also accommodate to whatever is best convenient for you.

About: I have a passion for animals. Dog/house sitting is more than a job, it is one of my favorite hobbies. I am a very punctual and friendly person that you can rely on. I am a big proponent of picking up for your dog on walks & leaving your house cleaner than you left it. Nothing makes me happier then a wagging tale after a great walk. I am a full time professional that is always looking to make new doggie best friends. I have taken care of dogs big and small, as well as a small hodgepodge of other fun pets like hedgehogs, parakeets & house plants. Just know, that as you head off our your vacation, your pets will be comfortable and safe in their own home with me. I will be able to give to best care to pets that can handle the 8-4:30 schedule while I am at work. Extended stays/house sitting works fine with me and will give constant attention to your precious pets while I am there. When caring for your pet in your home, I stick to a strict schedule. I always come straight home after work so we can go on a long walk and then make sure we both get some dinner. Evenings will be spent giving all my attention and playfulness to those more energetic dogs!

About: I bring a strong foundation of trust, safety, and attentiveness from my background in law enforcement, along with hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I’m comfortable with everything from high-energy, working breeds that require structure and engagement, to puppies needing patience and consistency, as well as older dogs who benefit from a calmer, attentive approach. I have experience with basic obedience reinforcement, leash handling, and reading canine behavior to ensure safe, positive interactions at all times. I’m also knowledgeable in pet safety and emergency awareness, with training that supports quick, calm decision-making if needed. As someone who prioritizes physical health and an active lifestyle, I enjoy providing dogs with the exercise, stimulation, and attention they need to stay happy and well-balanced. Whether your dog needs structured walks, playtime, or just reliable, loving care while you’re away, I’m confident and comfortable handling it all. I currently work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to dedicate plenty of time to pet care throughout the day. I’m typically available from the early morning through the evening, with the most flexibility during daytime hours. Because my schedule is adaptable, I’m able to work around each pet’s individual routine—whether that means an early-morning walk, a midday check-in, feeding, playtime, or evening care. I’m open to adjusting my availability when needed and working with owners to find a schedule that best fits their pets’ needs. My goal is to make pet care feel consistent, reliable, and stress-free for both you and your pet while you’re away. As a former law enforcement officer, safety, responsibility, and trust have always been at the heart of what I do. I understand how important it is to feel completely comfortable leaving both your pet and your home in someone else’s care—and I don’t take that responsibility lightly. When caring for your pet, I treat your home with the same respect and attention to detail I would expect in my own. I’m mindful of doors, gates, alarms, keys, access points, and anything else that helps keep your home secure while you’re away. I’m also attentive to your pet’s surroundings and routines to help prevent accidents, escapes, or anything that could put them at risk. Most importantly, I want your pet to feel safe, loved, and comfortable in my care. I take the time to understand their personality, routines, needs, and boundaries rather than treating every pet the same. Whether your dog is energetic and playful, needs extra patience, is shy around new people, or simply wants some companionship, I’m happy to meet them where they are. You can have peace of mind knowing that your pet is receiving attentive, dependable care—and that your home is being treated with the same level of respect and responsibility. I’m also happy to provide updates, photos, and communication throughout the visit so you never have to wonder how things are going. My goal is for you to feel confident and reassured from the moment you hand over the leash to the moment you walk back through your door.

About: My name is Jon, I'm a veteran, I have two adventurous little girls that adore their boy Goose. We live in a quiet residential area with dogs surrounding us everywhere. I work from home in the morning and then for a couple hours in Eagan. I am home with the girls and Goose on most nights and enjoy taking him on different adventures. Maintain a fun environment for dog looking to socialize with bigger dogs. Plenty of room to run and chew and catch. Warm home with plenty of ice cold H2O to quench a hard day of play. Have many years of experience walking dogs on hard trails. Also know how to navigate through congested areas. Working from home most of the time still unless I am free of commitments. Only work until 3 so plenty of play time and snuggles. We have a fenced yard and a gentle elderly dog to run and play with. Enough air conditioning or heat to pamper after a hard day of playing.

About: I currently have 2 dogs and 1 cat in my home and love Dachshunds. We also have a lab mix who loves to play with all dogs one of the doxies loves all dogs as well. They are both puppies still. We live on 5 wooded acres, and have a separate fenced area to let the dogs play. I have grown up with dogs my whole life and have also had a dog in my household. Dogs are more than just pets to me they are are family and I considered them my children. I will care for tour dogs as if they were my own and they will make a new friend while they stay over and play the weekend away! I am working for home, so I have plenty of time to attend to all the dogs needs, feeding, outside time, playing. I usually take my dogs to the dog park every morning for our mile walk and during the summer months we try to go to the lake for a swim a couple times a week. I have 2 fur babies, they are very playful and love all dogs. I treat all dogs as if they are my own, I love them all!

About: I've loved animals all my life. I got my first puppy when I was about 13 years old, full of pre-teen enthusiasm for learning all about dog behavior and puppy training strategies. Now that my own beloved dog is no longer with us, I've found myself wishing I had more opportunities to connect with animals on a regular basis. I've taken every chance I could to pet sit for friends and acquaintances over the years, but recently I realized that I could also be using Rover to make pet care a more regular part of my life! Since I'm also meant to share something here that makes me "stand out" as a sitter, I'll say that animals do tend to feel particularly safe and relaxed around me. If I were to take a guess as to why that is, I think I would say that it's probably a combination of: 1) genuinely loving pets and wanting to have a positive interaction with them, 2) not bringing anxious energy into the room, which I think is something that most pets can sense, and 3) knowing enough about animal behavior to not escalate any existing anxieties or aggression. As someone who has had a beloved pet, I know how important it is to find someone to care for your pet that you can trust to accommodate their particular needs, and to create a safe, happy environment for them while you're away. If you'll trust me to be that person, then nothing would make me happier than to give your pet an amazing visit, walk, or staycation! I work full time (8.5 hours M-F) in Arden Hills, and my preference for pet care would be to schedule services either before (7:30am) or after (5pm) work. I do have some flexibility to pop out for short walks in the middle of the day for one-off service requests, but would not be able to accommodate a repeating service in the middle of the work day. I am not able to host pets in my home at this time, but if I can come and care for your pets at their own home, I am happy to follow whatever instructions you give for how to make your pet feel happy and safe and cared for during your absence! I am a careful instruction follower, so I will refer back to any information you can give me about what your pet is accustomed to when you are home, and how you would like me to care for them when you're gone. If you feel nervous at all about leaving them, I'm also more than happy to send regular updates to you about how they are doing!

“Natalie was nice and accommodating to our schedule. Lola was very happy when we came home We were able to enjoy our day knowing she was well taken care of.”

About: Hi! My name is Ashlie, I live in Brooklyn Park, MN. I live right across from the Coon Rapids Dam, so there are miles of walking trails right outside my door and a brand new dog park just a block away. I have dog sat often for a variety of dogs for about ten years now. I have a 12 year old westie named Merlin. We love hiking and going to dog parks and breweries together. He’s a very social dog and used to being around other dogs. If you need a dog sitter, I can take your dog on several walks and to various parks each day, they will come home tired and happy! Your dog is welcome to stay in my home or we can stay in your home if preferred. I can't wait to meet your furry friend!! Thank you for considering me! Currently I have a lot of availability.

About: Hi! I’m Jessica, and I’ve been caring for animals since I was young. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, so I take the time to get to know each one and help them feel comfortable while you’re away. I currently work part-time from home, which gives me the flexibility to provide frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, and plenty of one-on-one attention. Whether your dog enjoys an active day or prefers to relax and cuddle, I’ll do my best to match their routine and make them feel at home. I live in an apartment with easy access to walking paths and green spaces. My goal is to provide a safe, calm, and loving environment where your pet feels comfortable and you can enjoy peace of mind. I’ll also send regular photo and video updates so you can see how your pet is doing throughout their stay.

“Gabrielle was an amazing sitter for our 3 cats! She sent us pictures and updates about how they were doing while we were gone & went the extra mile of playing and cuddling with them. We would highly recommend Gabrielle to anyone looking for someone to care for their pets.”
