“Took great care of our pets and followed all the instructions we had left for both the animals and the house while we were gone. Great communication and sent lots of pictures and updates. Left the house exactly as we left it!”
About: I've taken care of dogs of various breeds, sizes and ages for family, friends, and now people on Rover. I must say, I've met some pretty awesome dogs and people through Rover. I am retired, but clean a couple houses and a furniture store on a part-time basis. The longest I'm away is typically 4 to 5 hours on cleaning days. I don't have a dog of my own at this time. My Ella, sadly crossed the rainbow bridge in December of 2021. Crazy how your life totally changes when they are gone. I miss all my dogs more than anything and will some day have another dog or two. In the meantime, I get my dog fix by taking care of other people's dogs. I will provide exercise and companionship for your dog(s) as if they were my own. I know how hard it is to leave them when you want some time away. I will do my best to keep them on the schedule and routine they are used to.
“Very easy to deal with. Did exactly what I asked, sent pictures every day.”
“Alec and Buddha did a great job taking care of our babies while we were gone. I felt completely comfortable having them at the house alone knowing he was going to be there twice a day to play with them and feed them. I never had to worry that they were in good hands. Alec was reliable and went above and beyond to even report on packages being delivered, etc. I will definitely use him again!”
“She is just the best! We never worry when she is watching Bentley! :)”
About: I’ve worked at multiple doggy day cares near Forest Lake MN and I have 2 dogs of my own! I love all animals and treat them like my own! I’m a college student who needs to make more money than what I’m currently making and I’m pretty available Monday through Friday depending on the times! My dogs are walked everyday and played with all the time! I understand the time it takes to care for a dog or cat and so I’m very patient with them.
“Jaylen has done a great job with pop-in visits on multiple occasions for me. Always professional, friendly, and good with the cats. When I have booked with her I feel peace of mind that cats will be in good care. Highly recommend.”
About: I have lived with animals of all kinds for as long as I remember, ever since I was about 5 I would help my parents feed and take care of the animals, and I still help with many thing weither it's bathing, taking on walks, giving hair cuts, giving vaccinations, cutting nails, or giving medication of all sorts. I am currently a senior in high school so on weekdays I have to wait till 4:00 to love your fur-babys as much as you do. I will give your fur-babys the same care and love as I give my pets at home, while also meeting your specific care expectations to keep your fur-babys safe and happy.
About: I have always had pets while growing up. Rabbits, dogs, cats, calves. My family lived on a farm in my younger years and I absolutely loved the animals we had and loved caring for them. I do drop in visits to care for some of my friend's animals and I also walk dogs,play with them and keep them company while their owner's are at work. My pet's have always been considered my kids and I take the utmost care for friend's,family and customer's pets--as if they were my own. Animals seem to warm up to me right away. I look forward to meeting your pets and making a great relationship with them. I am on Social Security Disability so I am unable to work. I am disabled due to neck surgeries/pain but caring for animal's does not not interfere with my pain. It's very therapeutic for me to be around animals. I am usually very flexible with my schedule, as to fit you in, if I have a 3 day (or more) notice. I am not offering pet sitting in my own home but will gladly do drop in visits at yours or walk your animal(s) from your home.
“Thanks for taking care of my kitties and also playing with them??”
About: Hello and thank you for checking out my profile! Your family member will see me as one of their own, I am patient and allow them to get used to a new face. Active, adventurous and out going are a lot of traits I hold and can help your dog exert. A well exercised mind, calls for a calm well trained dog! I will come in and check up otherwise if requested I can stay at the home and keep them company! I am flexible and willing to work with your specific requirements as our dogs are our family! Please consider me when welcoming a new face into the family, I would be happy to work with your schedule. Thank you very much and have a wonderful day! Emily Flasch
About: I am very patient and absolutely love all animals. I worked at a vet clinic before I moved so i know how to handle if an animal gets scared or stressed. I currently work full time. I usually get off pretty early in the morning so anytime after 12pm I am available to provide dog walks. I am not currently offering boarding situations. I have a dog and a cat, my cat doesn’t like no animals into her house so she gets very upset.
About: I do walking, snuggles, feed them, potty breaks and lots of play time! I do have a pet myself, but she stays home. I trained her all by myself. I taught her not to bark, lick the face, sit shake, stay fetch, and to love people. I'm a easy going person and I'm a animal lover myself! I hope to hear from you. I can start as soon as possible. You can also reach me at 7I also animal sit for my family and friends all the time. If you have any questions please feel free to call or text me. Thank you, Jenny M.
About: I've had dogs and cats all my life. I am the type to keep my dogs active whether it be playing fetch in the yard or throwing the stick in the lake for them to fetch. I believe in lots of play toys and chewys so they never get bored. I also understand the dog who might be more calm, maybe a little shy and likes time alone, and that is very understandable. I am a retired nurse and know pretty well the signs and symptoms of pain or discomfort. I understand the importance of proper nutrition and availability of fresh water. I lost my 14 yr. old lab to old age 2 years ago, and just recently got a new yellow lab puppy here in March. I really missed having a travel companion! I'm a unique pet/house sitter in that I travel in my beautiful Canadian Roadtrek Campervan and can house "watch" while taking care of your pets. I do not need to stay in your home. Any additional duties other than "watch" your house can be negotiated- like water a few houseplants, etc. I do ask that you provide a household electric (120V) outside plug in. My small RV uses approx. $2-$3 per day of electricity. I love animals. I have a yellow Labrador myself! I travel often in my RV and we make great travel partners often stopping at dog parks 2-3 times a day on our adventures. Beau would love to have playmates! I can only provide mobile pet/house sitting. I am unable to pet sit in the home I live in. I am a recently retired nurse. I am trained not only in human CPR, but I also have dog and cat CPR training. I have given pets medication, induced vomiting -per instructions while on the phone with a vet tech (after dog ate 1 1/2 lbs of bing cherries - pits and all. Happy ending! :). When I go into a home I find myself scanning countertops and floors for potential hazards for pets - things like medications, foods, hot boiling water on stovetop with handles pointing out, etc... I am constantly monitoring for potential dangers. Sometimes things happen though, unfortunately, that can't be avoided and that's when first aid, CPR, poison control line, and Vet info should all be available and handy. I ask that all instructions be written down and text/emailed to me 24 hours prior. That way if I have any questions, they can be answered before you leave on your relaxing worry-free vacation!
About: Hello I'm Jillian! I have taken care of many different pets and have a couple of my own. Im very experienced! I own a dog and a horse but have other experience from many other farm animals and pets! I have taken care of dogs that needed medications such for diabetes and pain management. I’ve also taken care of newborn puppies. I’m also pretty flexible for payment and scheduling. Message me for any other questions! I work night shifts at a hospital so taking care of your pet during the day will be easily fit into my schedule and if needing any watching for night time we can work that around! I take care of my clients pets just like my own. Kept well fed and exercised. Multiple walk during the day for the younger ones and a calm relaxing day for the elders.
About: I have taken care of animals since I was 10 years old. Family, neighbors, and friends have always trusted me to do so. They bring extra happiness to my every day life! I have always said, we don’t deserve animals. I have a special place in my heart for them! I am looking to do this as an extra source of income to help provide for my family. This sounds like a great opportunity for me to make some income while doing something I love! I am flexible. I have two dogs, and two cats of my own! One is a border collie ( 5 years old) who loves to herd the cats around the house and stare at them. The other is a black lab (1.5 years old) who is a big teddy bear and doesn’t know his own size but, is a gentle giant. The two cats mind their own business but, come out for cuddles every so often. They definitely love their treats! We unfortunately do not have a fenced in yard but, we have dog leads that our dogs are able to be let out on. We also let them run free when we are out there with them. They love tossing the ball around and chasing after it! Having a friendly/safe neighborhood has made it very enjoyable for walks as well. Our home has hardwood floor throughout the main living areas so, it is easy for clean up if needed! We are animal friendly 🥰🐾
About: Since childhood, I have always had a special connection with animals, always drawn to them. I have cared for cats, dogs, and other small critters since I can remember. I am now the proud owner of 4 large dogs, 5 cats, a lionhead rabbit, and fish. I also have experience working as a vet assistant for the last five years and have a keen eye for paying attention to the needs of our beloved fur babies. Along with experience, I am obtaining a certification as a veterinary technician, just completing my first year of a two-year program. I am currently a full-time college student, free for the summer, and have plenty of flexibility. Don't be afraid to reach out! I love animals! I stick to schedule feedings, potty breaks, and routines set by owners. Bonus: I will provide lots of belly rubs, attention, and treats if allowed.
About: Grew up around many species from farm animals and exotics. I own 6 dogs, 4 cats, 6 snakes and 2 geckos currently. I've been around small dogs and larger dogs all my life. I work full time in a factory but on my days off I have very flexible hours to come visit everyone's furry babies. For this reason I don't do sitting overnight often. I won't bring other animals into my home but while out with your dogs or in your home I'll follow everything told to me. If they need certain care outside of standard care just let me know
About: I have had dogs for 5 years and recently added a cat to the bunch! I love spending time with them by walking them on our large property! I work 7:30-3:30 as a school teacher, but my husband leaves around 9am on the weekdays. I spend every minute after that with my pets! I will care for the pets in whichever way is preferred by their owner. We have a large yard that is far away from a busy street.
About: I've been taking care of pets since I was in high school. Cleaning litter, walking dogs, and feeding times. Doesn't even seem like a job when you get to spend time with animals!!

Alexandra F.
“I've known Alex for several years as she's the daughter of one of my co-workers. I've been to her family's home many times where they have several pets of their own including cats, dogs, rabbits and guinea pigs and have seen Alex taking care of them in a loving and caring manner. I have had her care for my own pets in my home, I have a very timid 80# Pitbull along with a sassy cat. My dog was very comfortable with her and really enjoyed Alex taking her for walks and car rides. My cat allowed Alex to pet her which is more than she does for most people :) Alex showed up on time and stayed for the time that was agreed upon. As I watched her grow up, I know that Alex has always been a hard worker, a good student and a kind, responsible young lady in general. My pets and I look forward to her coming back for pet-sitting.”
