“Sierra did a great job of showing up on time and caring for my kitty. I was really comfortable with her during our meet and greet, Peepers was too so I knew it would be a good fit. I will definitely look for Sierra’s availability next time I need to travel. Thanks!”

“Molly took fantastic care of our young, play-oriented cat, sending us photo updates after every visit. She was also very responsive and flexible in our pre-trip communications. Highly recommended! Would hire again in a heartbeat.”

About: Hi! I'm an animal lover who provides attentive, reliable pet care. As the adult account holder and caregiver, I will be responsible for all aspects of your pet's care, including walks, feeding, medication administration (if needed), and supervision. I also have a 10-year-old daughter who loves animals and may occasionally accompany me during walks or visits. Because of this, I ask that pets be comfortable around respectful, animal-savvy children. My daughter's presence is always supervised by me, and your pet's safety and well-being remain my top priority. I look forward to getting to know you and your furry family member! I work long days Mondays through Wednesdays but have more flexibility outside of that. Can accommodate before and after work visits. I love long walks! I cannot care for pets in our home but can come to you! Your pet MUST be kid friendly in case my 10 year old comes with!
“Olivia is the absolute best! We were scrambling to find someone after our old dog sitter moved and she is always so patient with our big guy who can sometimes have stranger danger. I would whole heartedly recommend her to anyone that is needing some help with their pup!”

“This was our first time using Rover and Krista exceeded all of our expectations with her care of our 2 cats. She followed all of our care instructions, gave frequent and thorough updates, and made us feel confident that our cats were safe. We would absolutely work with Krista again for future trips!”

“She has such a great demeanor and rapport with all our pets!! We know and trust that our animals are in the best hands!!! There is no doubt about the care she gives!!”

“This was our first experience using Rover. Thank you for making it so easy. Macy S was the best! She was so polite and conscientious. She sent the cutest pictures of our cats warming up to her and it made us feel relieved they were safe so we could enjoy our time away from them. Overall very positive experience. Would use Rover again.”

About: Before moving to Minnesota I lived with my roommates dog for 4 years. Her dog, Tabby, was a part of our little roomie family and my roommate could rely on me to help out with daily care needs (i.e. watching her when she went on trips, feeding, walking, potty breaks, play time, etc.) I am now missing the presence of a fur baby in my life and would love to opportunity to work with your dog this summer and beyond. I am a kind, caring and responsible individual who you can rely on to treat your dog as if it were my own. I'm currently working part time so I have a fairly flexible schedule. I am free full time for weekend sitting Saturday-Monday. I also am free during the day some Wednesdays and every Friday. I have evening availability every weeknight except Friday. I am happy to abide by any house rules you have for your dog (i.e. furniture rules, crating, etc.) While I can't host dogs in my own home due to landlord restrictions, if I were to come into your home I would treat it as my own and leave it how I found it. I am happy to provide companionship, feeding, walks, or potty breaks depending on your needs.
About: I have had many different breeds of dogs including terriers, pinschers, and my current dog Lulu the chihuahua. I am very patient with senior dogs. I have 2 dogs (a chihuahua and a chowchow puppy) and 1 cat. Working on training the puppy currently. My cat has FIV and has health problems from it. I am experienced in handling senior dogs and dogs that may need special attention. My dog is my best friend and not just my pet. I am always gentle and understanding with her. I am always attentive to her needs.
“Our two pups LOVED Tacy, and we felt so at ease knowing she was stopping by to take them out for their potty breaks, feed them, and play with them while we were gone overnight. Especially since they can be a bit of a handful when people first come over! Thanks, Tacy!”


About: 🐾 I’ve been around dogs for as long as I can remember, and I started dog sitting for friends, family, and neighbors when I was 10. When I got my own dog at 14, I fell in love with training and taught her over 20 tricks through patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement. Over the years, I’ve built strong relationships with both pets and owners, and I’ve been lucky to receive referrals from people who trust me with their dogs. I love making sure dogs are not just cared for, but genuinely happy and engaged. Whether that’s walks, playtime, enrichment games, training practice, or just giving them lots of attention and affection, I always try to match each dog’s personality and energy level. I’m comfortable with dogs of different sizes, temperaments, and energy levels, and I always want them to feel safe, loved, and relaxed while you’re away. I’m a college student currently on summer break, so I have plenty of time throughout the day for walks, drop-ins, playtime, and giving pets lots of attention. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, so pet care is something I truly look forward to every day. I’m also studying Animal Science, which has made me even more passionate about animal care and behavior. I always want pets to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I pay close attention to routines, behavior, and comfort levels, and I’ll treat your pets and home with the same care and respect I would my own.
About: I've been around dogs for most of my life and had my own dog for 9 years, which gave me firsthand experience with daily care, exercise, and companionship. In addition, I've pet sat on two separate occasions for over two weeks at a time, caring for dogs by taking them on multiple walks each day, administering medication when needed, and making sure they received plenty of attention and affection. I'm very active and enjoy going on walks and runs, so I'm happy to provide dogs with the exercise and outdoor time they need. I understand that every pet has its own personality and routine, and I strive to make them feel comfortable, safe, and loved while their owners are away. My goal is to care for your pet as if they were my own. Pet care fits very well into my schedule. During the summer, I work part-time with flexible hours that are often outside of the typical 9–5 schedule, which gives me availability throughout the day for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting. I am able to adjust my schedule to meet the needs of the pets and families I work with. During the school year, I do not have a job, which gives me even more flexibility and availability. I am available most weekends and frequently have open time during the week as well. Whether your pet needs regular care, exercise, or companionship while you're away, I am committed to providing reliable and attentive care. When caring for pets in a client's home, I make it a priority to keep their routine as consistent as possible. I follow all instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, exercise routines, medication needs, and any specific preferences or rules. I understand that pets are most comfortable in familiar environments, so I focus on creating a calm, safe, and stress-free experience while their owners are away. I am attentive to each pet's behavior and needs, making sure they receive plenty of exercise, attention, playtime, and affection. I also keep owners updated with messages and photos so they can have peace of mind knowing their pet is happy and well cared for. Above all, I treat every home with respect and every pet as if they were my own.

“Shelby did an amazing job with both our pets. Highly recommend! Sent lots of pictures and took great care of them. We will definitely have Shelby back next time we are out of town.”

About: Lifelong pet owner and current dog handler at a doggy daycare/boarding facility looking to meet your pups (and kitties!) and help meet their standards of care! Expirence with many (and I mean a lot!) of breeds, and expirence with human/dog/food/leash reactive dogs of all types and temperments! Im a full time doggy daycare worker and a full time student in psychology but i have a lot of free time and love meeting and helping out with new pets! Saftey, trust, enviorment, and care for me is a top priority. I love befriending pups and making sure I can make them feel as comfortable and safe as possible!
About: I've cared for two dogs as I grew up, and look forward to caring for more. I have done many long walks and dog park hiking with my golden doodle, and have also done some training as well. I know how to take care of puppies and adult dogs, but would love to learn how to take care of special needs and senior dogs. Dogs, like mine, are energetic and need lots of exercise, so I am always willing to play or exercise with dogs. Over the summer (June-August), I am free most afternoons and some evenings the whole week. During the school year, (September-May) I am more available during the weekends, but still free during some afternoon/evenings during the week, which I'll update as I get my schedule. At home, I care for my dog by giving him plenty of snuggles, but also getting up and playing with him when he lets me know he wants to play. I am alert and can sense what my dog may need, such as going potty, playing, or eating. When walking/going to the dog park, I watch over my dog at all times, and walk along with him. During walks, I make sure that he is safe to walk and sniff the whole time. At dog parks, I encourage him to meet other dogs and run around while still being present. I notice when my dog gets tired or needs water, and I am prepared by bringing a water bottle.

About: I have always grow up with both cats and dogs. I am an animal lover who is very patient, kind, and caring. I love all pets whether it be a calm cat or an energetic dog who loves run! I am very active and would love to help out with your pets no matter how calm or energetic they are! I am currently very available this summer! I am open to checking in on pets, going for walks, and taking care of pets overnight! I love to be active and would love to take care of all pets at any energy! I care for pets by maintaining their normal routine and making sure they feel safe and comfortable in their own home. I follow all owner instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications, playtime, and any special needs. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, exercise, and affection while their owners are away. I also keep owners updated with regular messages and photos so they know their pets are happy and well cared for. My goal is to provide reliable, attentive care while respecting both the pet's routine and the client's home.
About: My family has ALWAYS had large dogs, in addition to cats and other animals. I love walking dogs and playing with them. I know how much personalities vary. I know how to deal with skittish dogs. I work until 2 pm most days and am free after that. I am very flexible outside of this. I have a calendar that will enable me to keep track of all appointments. At this time, I would only be able to take care of animals at the client's home. I will follow instruction to the letter, especially with medications or special diets.

Trinity was a caring & attentive pet sitter to my two cute but somewhat high maintenance kitties. I especially appreciated her frequent communication & attention to all the pet care details as well as the various rules/ & regulations in my apt. building. I am definitely hiring her again for pet care & recommend that you do too!!

Although had to leave my cat for three weeks to travel abroad, I felt better because Lillian would be taking care of her. My cat is extremeley picky and yet she warms to Lillian and her care. Thank you! I will definitely check to see if you're available again.

Marissa has been such a dream to work with. She’s professional and considerate. She takes care of our home like her own and it’s been a relief to have someone like her watching over our cats while we’re away. The cats love her and she’s been an absolute trooper giving our two cats with chronic conditions their various pills and eye drops. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter!

This was my first time using Rover. Sierra checked in on my two cats while I was out of town (twice daily). We had recently got the second cat and she was very helpful in continuing their integration while we were away and ensured they were properly fed and healthy. Will be booking again.
