“We are so thankful that Kirsten was able to house sit for our pets while we were traveling. She kept us updated with photos and messages, so we knew they were healthy and happy! It was a huge relief knowing she was loving them, even picking up more of their favorite food when they ran out. We will recommend Kirsten to anyone needing a pet sitter and absolutely use her again!!”
“Thank you Megan for staying at our home and taking such good care of our furkids while we were away for a long weekend. Please let us know if there is anything we can do to make your stay more enjoyable.”
“Bailey did a fabulous job house sitting our two dogs. They are normally needy and wound up tight when they come back from the kennel. She kept them busy and they have been calm and happy as clams, almost like I didn’t leave them! We’ll definitely use Bailey to dog sit as often as we can!”
About: My lifelong passion for animals began as a child with my family's cat and guinea pigs. When I was 10, I took on the responsibility of caring for my Shiba Inu, Mia. I dedicated myself to her training, teaching her numerous commands like "sit" and "stay," and I gained invaluable experience with a breed known for its temperament. I am experienced in administering oral medications and tick/lice preventatives. As a teenager, I adopted a cat and continued to build my experience by volunteering at a local humane society and caring for a neighbor's dog. Friends and family have also relied on me for house and cat sitting. I am pursuing my Master's degree in education, which gives me a very flexible and adaptable schedule. Pet care on Rover is one of my priorities, so I have plenty of availability for your pet. I am available for overnight sits, walks, and drop-in visits on weekdays and weekends, and I carefully manage my schedule to ensure I have quality time for every booking. I split my time between Alexandria and the Twin Cities, and my calendar is always kept up to date for my availability in each location. I provide pet care in your home and not in my own, as I do not offer boarding or day care services. This allows your pet to stay in their familiar, safe environment, which I believe is best for their comfort. I am very organized and reliable, and I will strictly follow all of your instructions regarding feeding, medicine, and routines. You can trust that I will treat your home with the utmost respect and provide constant communication, including photo updates, to ensure your peace of mind while you are away.
About: I live in a happy chaos-filled home with one very social pup, two energetic kiddos, and a whole lot of love (and dog hair). If you’re looking for a peaceful retreat for your pet… well, I can’t promise that. But if your dog loves playtime, belly rubs, and beach days? You’ve found the right spot! We live just steps away from a park and spend most of our summer outdoors. Long walks, sniffari adventures, and sunny snoozes in the grass are kind of our thing. I am fortunate to have a full time position that allows for a lot of flexibility. I am not constrained to typical 9-5 office hours, so midday treat breaks are always an option! I am big on nutrition and exercise. i think it’s important to get your pets out and active. i care for pets the way i care for children, lots of cuddles and love and even more time to play.

Hailey R.
“Hailey has an incredible love for dogs. She has had dogs most of her life and she is great at taking care of them. She loves spending time with them, playing with them, walking them, and cuddling with them. Whenever we see a dog her face lights up. She is just a person who was meant to have a dog. Her current circumstances prevent her from having one, so this is the next best thing. Hailey would be awesome at this job”
