“Jenny is extremely good with Charlie Brown. She even has started to train him. She is punctual and very pleasant. She walks Charlie four times a week and we are grateful! She comes highly recommended by us!”

“Valerie took Kodak on some adventures this week! She’s so flexible and willing to try new things to keep our puppy entertained and happy. She took him swimming at a lake and some public lands for new scenery. Valerie is proactive and super informed about our pets needs and health. Kodak loves hanging with her :)”

“Kristin was such a find for us! She has such a great energy to her and immediately loved on my two pups when she came for the meet & greet! I know my boys are in good hands and get their exercise and outside time in! Thank you! Definitely will use again!”

About: I’m a stay at home momma who can’t wait to have pawsome adventures with your pet 😊🐶 I have experience in feeding, grooming, walking, administering medication, and ensuring a safe environment for dogs since childhood. This began with my family dogs, which taught me the importance of love and patience with our furry family members, and this mentality has continued into my adult life with my own pups. I am a stay at home momma so I have a lot of availability and flexibility all week long for boarding, daycare, check ins, etc.! I have a yard with 3 friendly fur babies of my own to keep your pet company! I also have endless tough chewer toys to keep your pup’s tail wagging!

About: Hi there! I am an avid animal lover with 17 years of experience caring for cats and dogs of all personalities, breeds, ages, and energy levels. I have had 4 dogs and 3 cats of my own, 12 foster dogs (not at the same time!) and have cared for many animals through Rover. I offer drop-in and dog walk services in the Hudson/Stillwater area. I work remote and have plenty of flexibility and availability to help fill in when you want a little help caring for your fur family. No upcharges for holidays either! Whether in your home, in your yard, or out and about, the safety of you pet, and their needs are top priority. I have engaged in a variety of dog training courses with my own dog so have no problem maintaining the rules you have in place for you animal/s.
About: Hi! I have always had a pup in my life, and I couldn’t imagine it any other way! I have a 3 year old Mini Australian Shepherd named Basil. I am always taking him to play frisbee, swim, go for long walks, and adventure around different lakes etc,. If your pup would love a friend to play with, I could bring him, or leave him at home :) He is my best friend, and so I understand it might take a lot to trust someone with your pup. I am a registered nurse at Children's Hospital, but I only work 2-3 12 hour shifts a week! This allows me to have a lot of free time to take care of my dog, and yours! I have a wooded back yard with lots of grass and space to throw a frisbee, ball, or play! There are a lot of walking trails near me as well:)
About: I am a dog mom of two golden doodles, one of which is a foster fail! My oldest golden doodle is certified in pet therapy. I am also the founder and executive director of Picnics With A Pup, a non profit that brings therapy dogs in to see children battling life threatening illness. I am an avid cocos heart dog rescue volunteer and have many many litters and dogs on both a temporary and permanent (until adoption) basis. Lots of experience with shy dogs, (I rescued one). Lots of experience with basic puppy training with all of the litters I have fostered. I love all breeds and sizes and I leave you with my favorite quote: “Everyone thinks they have the best dog, and they are not wrong” I am currently laid off and available Monday-Thursday 9am-2pm. I do have week night and weekend availability but more scattered because of my human children schedules! I live on 2.5 acres in Stillwater and have two golden doodles that can provide endless play during the day. I am flexible on crate preferences, I do not crate my dogs but understand the need for and desire to crate train for some dogs. I live in a quiet neighborhood for great walking but am also open to walking by you!
About: I've been taking care of animals all of my life from bunnies to gerbils to cats and dogs! I am very empathetic and have a natural way with animals and extensive experience working with challenging feline cases (deaf and blind, fospice, subcutaneous fluids, behavioral challenges). I'm also comfortable sitting and caring for friendly dogs.. I work from home as a therapist so can have your pet here with me or can make home visits when I'm not seeing clients. I am a "homebody" and live right on a lake here in Minneapolis, perfect for walks. I am very trustworthy, have worked as a pet sitter for others who can testify to that. My home is clean, spacious and full of love! I am ready to make it cozy and fit your animals needs. I do have some nice rugs and so they should be potty trained if staying at mine.
About: I've taken care of or helped take care of dogs and cats since I was a teenager. I have now also helped with basic care duties for sheep, chickens, and horses since starting with Rover. I work from home so rest assured your animals will have me around for most of if not all hours of the day. Working remotely provides flexibility to accommodate all schedules! By me coming to you, it helps keep your animals more comfortable in their own space. If I am not available for house sitting during the dates you are looking for we could certainly chat about drop in options. I follow your routine! Walks, bed times, feedings, etc I try to make your dogs routine as normal as possible as to not create stress while you're gone. I do my best to stay in contact every day with photo/video updates as this is what I would hope for if someone else was caring for my dog.
About: I have been pet sitting since I was 10 years old. I have had pets my whole life including dogs, cats, bunnies, fish, birds and reptiles. I would care for your pet like it was my own. I love nature and animals. My pets are part of the family and I know it's difficult to trust someone else with a beloved pet. I am available most nights and weekends. If you work odd hours then I can help out and make sure your pet is cared for. I treat every pet like a member of the family. I would make sure they feel comfortable and secure and know it takes time to grow trust.
About: My pet/house sitting adventures have taken me across the country, from Oregon to Hawaii to South Carolina. I have cared for a variety of breeds and personalities, from high-energy pups to mellow seniors, and I enjoy getting to know each animal’s unique quirks and routines. Our family absolutely loves animals, but we do not have any of our own. We love welcoming special guests into our home and giving them 100% of our love and attention while they’re with us ❤ We also enjoy caring for pets in their own homes, where they may feel most comfortable. I'm attentive to routines, feeding schedules, and special care instructions, and I’m comfortable with everything from daily walks to medication administration. We’re a blended family with one child (age 14) who lives with us half the time, and two children (ages 8 and 4) who are here full-time. They're gentle and very respectful of animals, and they love to help when families and pets are comfortable with it. Depending on your preferences (and your pet’s comfort level), my kids may join me for some or none of the time. We’re flexible and will prioritize what helps your pet feel relaxed and loved. Thank you for your time! I’ve worked remotely for 14 years, which gives me the flexibility to provide care either in my home or yours. I’m typically available on weekdays and many weekends, too. We do not have a fenced-in yard, however, our family loves to spend time outdoors and go on walks. We would love to include your pet(s) in our adventures, if you're comfortable with us doing so!
About: I’ve spent years caring for my own pets, ensuring they’re happy and healthy. I’ve looked after my grandma's cat multiple times and other puppies and kitties for friends. I stand out from other sitters because of my deep passion for animals and my hands-on experience. I’m comfortable with both dogs and cats, and I take the time to understand each pet's unique needs. I love to give extensive play-times when possible, and lots of pets! Whether it’s administering medication for senior pets or providing a nurturing environment for lonely kitties, I’m committed to giving your furry friends the best care possible. I'm currently working part-time as well as attending university, so my schedule may be busy, but I am more than willing to work around it to accommodate for proper pet care. My Sundays are always open and Fridays are usually open as well. Let's work something out! I live in a safe, well-secured apartment complex beside a golf course, so plenty of room to give walks if needed. I also have two kitties with separate rooms, based on if your furry friend needs company or just some alone time! I am committed to ensuring that every pet is happy and healthy and feels safe in its environment.
About: Hi there! I'm a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages and abilities through volunteering and pet sitting. While I’ve only formally trained my own dogs, I’ve gained plenty of real-world knowledge by working with everything from energetic puppies to sweet senior pups who need a gentler touch. I'm patient, reliable, and genuinely passionate about making pets feel loved, safe, and happy while their humans are away. Whether it's a long walk, some playtime, or just quiet cuddles, I tailor my care to each pet’s needs—because every animal deserves to feel at home, even when they’re not! I work full time but fully remote from my home office so I am available for morning, lunch, or after work walks or feeds when you are rushing to get to work or travel. I typically do not care for pets in my own home as my dog is picky about which dogs are around and I don't want to put anyone at risk. I am happy to come to you!
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of many kinds for 6 years and have a 1 year old dog of my own. I am experienced with both puppies and elderly dogs. I can’t wait to meet and spoil your dogs! I currently work mainly from home and my husband works full time from home. We are flexible and able to take breaks each hour for play time and dog walking. There is a fenced dog park in our apartment that we can take them for playtime. It is often empty so we can have the dogs play fetch, etc without other dogs around. I am very active and am able to play with your dogs, and walk them for as long as needed to get their energy out. My mini golden doodle is very friendly and gentle with all other dogs. Our apartment is open and dogs are allowed to be anywhere of their liking in our space. I am trustworthy and will take great care of your dog as well as respecting your home and leaving it untouched. My dog is my entire world, and will give your dog the same love and care.
