About: I am able to do any pet of any size! I have been pet sitting/dog walking for 7 years now and have worked in animal resuce. Since I have worked with animals of all sizes and breeds, there is not an animal I would turn down care for. I am also great if you have a lot of pets and are looking for someone who can handle them all! I am familiar and comfortable with animals that have special needs. I have experience with behavioral issues, medications, blood glucose testing for animals with diabetes, and other special needs. I also can accommodate longer stays such as vacations or work travel! I have a lot of flexibility and a mode of transportation so I'm also open to the surrounding areas or if you live out of town. I am a full time student but have a lot of flexibility! I have multiple no class days where I am available and can do drop-ins between classes on days I have them. I am great at accommodating any needs your animals may have. I believe that all animals have unique needs and should be prioritized to make sure they are as comfortable as possible! I am very familiar with animal body language and am extremely patient/willing to work with every animals quirks. They are just like people and have unique personalities!

“Ally was great at following detailed instructions. She went above and beyond to take care of extra animals at the house and went out of her way to do an extra visit when our plane was delayed. She took great care of our animals. Thank you!”


“Maddi did a great job.She spent lots of time earning Biscuits trust and building a relationship. Biscuit was sitting on Maddie’s lap by the end. I appreciated all the care and attention she gave Biscuit.”


About: My career is in payroll, but my heart is with dogs. I grew up with them since birth and I've fostered and adopted 3 of my own over the years. They are family! My work experience with taking care of others' pups is through dog boarding/daycare facilities and I am very comfortable handling all sizes and breeds. Thank you in advance for trusting me to take care of your dog(s) like I do my own. I am available at least 2 weekends per month for house sitting and/or drop ins for walks, potty and feeding times, and cuddles. Some weekdays I do have flexibility for drop ins if needed. I often work remote and can flex my schedule around my daytime job. I am a safe caretaker when it comes to pets, ensuring leash and fence security if applicable. I am comfortable with crating and also giving medications.

About: I have grown up my whole life with many different cats and dogs. So I have experience with all sizes of dogs, and all moods of cats. My husbands family raises German shepherds, and I grew up with rescue cats and dogs of all breads! We currently have two cats of our own, but can’t get a dog right now as we are renting our home. I am a teacher, so afternoons/evenings and weekends are my primary availability. During the weekdays I can do drop ins early before school, after school, walks after school, and of course before bed time (after my baby goes to bed). On the weekends I am much more available. We do go to church on Sunday mornings, but I can still go to early morning and afternoon/evening services. For holidays, I am a bit more available as we don’t have school. Because I am renting my home, I cannot do care in my own home yet. Care at your home varies depending on your pet, their needs, and your instructions.

“Maxim took great care of our 2 year old German Shepherd. He is quite high energy and can be reactive towards other dogs, but he ensured he was well exercised and cared for nonetheless!”



“Alex was so wonderful! I had the misfortune of having failed to plan for care for our dogs for our holiday celebrations which were set for Christmas Eve eve. Then I found rover and pretty much figured I would get no responses and be stuck, but Alex came through with flying colors! We chatted through the app, and then made arrangements for not only the overnight, but she agreed to come earlier to meet the dogs despite having other things she had to go and tend to before my overnight. We found her to be kind and loving and our pitbull, who is fairly finicky about people, took to her immediately. Our home and our fur family was exceptionally well cared for. We’re so grateful to Alex!”


About: Hi there! I’m Wendy, an animal lover and dedicated pet caregiver with over 2 years of experience in dog walking, pet sitting (cats as well), and overnight care. I believe every pet deserves a loving and safe environment, and I strive to provide just that for your furry family members. I am currently available over the weekends, weekdays, and nights. I will be focusing on school so my availability is open to accommodate to your pets needs. I customize my services to fit your pet's needs and routines. You’ll receive daily updates and photos, so you won’t miss your furry friend while you’re away. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, from energetic puppies to calm seniors. My experience with cats has only been with shorthair domestic cats, yet I am able to work with all breeds of cat.

“Amber did a fantastic job taking care of our two pups. She was extremely responsive and accountable. So we knew our pups were in good hands”


About: Hi there! I'm a proud dog mom to a sweet Mini Goldendoodle named Finley. Growing up, I was surrounded by animals and loved helping care for them — my passion for animals has been with me ever since! I truly adore all animals and would treat yours like my own! I work from home, which gives me plenty of flexibility to provide attentive care throughout the day. I have a full hour for lunch and am finished with work by 5 PM, so your pet will have lots of attention, playtime, and love. When I visit, I focus on helping your dog feel safe and comfortable by following their routine, using a calm, gentle approach, and letting them warm up to me at their own pace.

About: I have taken care of pets (mainly dogs) for many years. I have expertise in walking, training, and making sure your pet gets the best care on a regular basis. I am a college student and I work part-time. I am free on weekdays after 6 pm but open every weekend from mornings to evenings. Depending on my school schedule I can possibly make a quick stop between classes to help out. I care for pets how their owners care for them. I provide them with a caring personality and follow their routine and owner's regulations. That could be going on walks, feeding them, and playtime. Most importantly I want them to be comfortable with me so do that I think it is important to do things with them that they are familiar with.

About: I've had cats my entire life and have had a dog for the last 8 years. Taking care of pets has been a huge part of my life that I've come to love! I especially enjoy going for long walks and getting lots of pet snuggles! I do work during the week I have a very flexible work schedule most days and a lot of free time on most weekends and weekday nights. Your pets safety is my main concern. I understand that our fur babies are just that, our babies. I am a high energy person that loves to care for and play with pets. I'm the type of person that you will find hanging out with the animals at any gathering! I will be open about my availability and will give your fur baby attention and love including play time, pets, and walks, and anything else your fur baby needs to thrive.

About: Newly single dad of two and one Rottweiler (they all live with mom). Looking for extra income and I’ve been a dog sitter/house sitter for over 15 years in the Twin Cities. I work full time as a church musician so my schedule is extremely flexible. My flexible working schedule can accommodate your pup’s needs. I’m used to multiple walks and feedings during the day. I love spoiling our furry friends and will give them a ton of attention. My neighborhood is near some incredible walking trails and is very quiet in terms of traffic or people being out and about. Fenced in yard. Doggos love it here.

“Ellie did a wonderful job with Biscuit. She also helped with important household chores. I am so grateful for Ellie and her support during our trip.”


About: I’ve grown up with pups and have lots of experience with animals. I am an active person so walks and jogs in the park are some of my favorite things to do! And of course lots of pets, snuggles, and love!! I am a mental health support specialist with 6am-2pm, or 2pm-10pm shifts. I am not full time so my schedule is always different as well as weekends!! I only offer staying in clients homes. I do this because dogs are a lot more comfortable in their own space that they are familiar with. I’m in my masters program at MSU, so unfortunately it’s not the time for me to have my own dog. That’s why I joined this app, so I can share my love for pupperz with those who need the assistance!!!

About: I have tons of experience when it comes to dogs! I always had a dog growing up, and since I've moved to mankato I've watched my friends dogs/offered walks so decided to give this a try! I work during the week, but have weekends completely off! Im open to boarding during the week but prefer boarding on weekends! I can do walks nights/weekends as well! Im great about bathroom breaks and walks! When im caring for someones pet I plan my schedule around their needs! Any special requests? Just ask, ill do what i can to accommodate!

17. Nathan C.
“Going out of town for an extended vacation was nerve racking for us as puppy parents. Fortunately we had Nate who is a kind, empathetic and caring person who very quickly built a trusting relationship with us and more importantly our dogs. Nate is a natural at building rapport and was able to quickly win our dogs over. We have three dogs and he managed each of their special needs with ease. We also have a very high needs dog in terms of medication along with a regimented walking and feeding schedule. Nate managed this with utmost care and diligence. I would trust Nate 100% with our dogs and would highly recommend him to anyone else be it they have two or four legs.”

20. Kailey B.

Not only will she ensure a pet is cared for, she will go above and beyond to provide fun times for the pet, and shower them in love! I could not say enough good things about Kailey, she is a die-hard pet lover and is one of the greatest pet owners I know!”
