“I had a great experience with Lindsey. She setup a time to meet with me and my cat to talk through his needs and be introduced. She kept me informed while I was away with pictures and updates about my cat, which made me feel much better about leaving my pet alone.”

“Tilia was wonderful with our senior dog, who adored her. Tilia was also flexible with a last minute glitch.”

“Brianna is awesome! She took excellent care of our old and somewhat particular dog! Brianna was a regular walker for us when we had long work days and when we got home at night our dog was happy, sleepy, and relaxed. Brianna sent fantastic updates including photos. She also made sure his water dish was full and gave him a snack before she left. Book Brianna - she's great!”

“Samantha really went above and beyond to care for my cat Maple while I was on vacation. I was initially nervous because this was my first time having a pet sitter and because Maple tends to be wary of strangers but Maple was very comfortable around Samantha. I appreciated that Samantha followed all care instructions and also sent pictures after every visit. This was the first time I went on vacation without constantly worrying about Maple and wondering if she was okay. Will definitely book again!”

“Lisa was great – she was available on such short notice and spent lots of quality time with my pup. Really appreciated her help and flexibility.”

About: I’ve loved dogs since I was a kid. In middle school, I began taking care of family & friends’ dogs. I love spending quality time with dogs, getting to know their unique personalities, and honoring their needs. I am also an experienced dog groomer who values building a bond of trust with pets and their families. I am a full-time student from September-May. I work part-time during the summer, so I generally have more time to spend with your pet throughout the week. I play organ and sing at various churches every weekend, which occupies my Saturday evenings & Sunday mornings. I also practice music every weekday morning. My home does not allow for pets, so I will be happy to stay in your home and take care of your dog in the environment they know best.

“Jess’s playtime’s with our dog are the highlight of his day. Reliable, on time, and highly communicative. Plan to continue to work with Jess in the future!”

About: I’ve been an animal lover my entire life and have extensive hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. I grew up with dogs, and today I share my home with my two sweet&sassy cats, so I understand the unique needs and personalities of both. For two years, I volunteered at the Detroit Animal Shelter, where I cared for dogs and cats of all ages, temperaments, and backgrounds. I’ve also been fostering with Twin Cities Pet Rescue for over two years, providing a safe, loving home for animals while helping prepare them for adoption. Through fostering, I’ve cared for newborn kittens, adult cats, senior cats, and animals with a variety of medical and behavioral needs. I’m experienced administering oral medications, eye medications, and injections, and I’m comfortable caring for pets with special medical needs. Whether your pet is energetic and playful, shy and cautious, or needs a little extra patience and attention, I’m committed to making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet. I can promise I’ll treat your pet as if they were my own and will provide plenty of updates, photos, and communication so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. Although I work full time, my position is remote and flexible. I’m able to do half-hour lunch walks, as well as full week night and weekend availability for long walks. Because I’m able to work anywhere, I can spend ample time with pets I’m house sitting as I can work directly from your home! When I care for pets in their own homes, my goal is to keep their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I’ll follow your instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication, litter box or potty routines, and any other preferences you have for your pet’s care. I understand that every animal has a different personality and comfort level. Some pets love to play and be active, while others prefer quiet companionship or extra patience while they warm up to someone new. I’ll always respect their boundaries and let them set the pace. I’m experienced administering oral medications, eye medications, and injections when needed, and I’ll keep a close eye on your pet’s health, behavior, and overall well-being during every visit. I’ll also make sure your home is left just as I found it, cleaning up after meals, accidents, litter boxes, or muddy paws as needed. Communication is important to me, so you can expect regular updates and plenty of photos so you know your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. My goal is for both you and your pet to feel comfortable, confident, and at ease throughout the entire experience.

“Daniel has experience with dogs, and recently had a drop in visit for my Great Dane, Lola, and her sister, Smiley. Daniel is responsive and reliable! We will rebook with Daniel and highly recommend!”

About: I have over 20 years of experience caring for dogs, including very young puppies. I also have some experience training them (mostly basic commands, proper walking, and manners) as well as house training little ones. I also have over 10 years of experience caring for exotic animals such as hamsters, rats, fish, and birds. I am comfortable with caring for reptiles and insects as well. I work as an independent contractor, so I modify my booking availability based on the work I get from my main sources. If you need someone with ongoing availability, let me know; if I cannot accommodate you, I may be able to recommend another Rover worker. I have human first aid certification and have also heavily researched pet first aid and CPR. I have experience caring for special needs pets, such as those with epilepsy, mobility issues, and medication needs.
