“We were so happy with the care our three cats - George, Harold, and Pete - received. It can be a challenge to manage a multi-cat household, but everything was handled perfectly. Rylan was reliable, attentive to their different personalities, and kept us updated the entire time. We will definitely book again!”
“Allene was amazing to work with! My normally-skittish kitty just loved her and she went the extra mile to hunt for my younger cat, who decided to find new hiding spots that I didn’t even know about! I will definitely be booking Allene again in the future!”
“Gaolah was wonderful. She did a meet and greet without hesitation. I have a 15 year old dog that can’t stay in her crate for extended time so Faolah came two different times and let her out to potty stretch her legs get a drink and some food. She communicated well, did as I asked, good with Crickett. I will cerise her again!”
“This was our first time using the Rover app, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Makayla was absolutely wonderful—super sweet and thorough when she came to meet our cat and go over all of the instructions. While we were away, she checked in every day with thoughtful notes and the cutest photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. She even brought in some packages that were delivered, which was such a nice extra touch. It’s clear she genuinely cares, and we’ll definitely be booking her again. We’re already planning to have her help with dog walking, too. Highly recommend!”

About: I've been taking care of people's cats and dogs alike ever since I was a teenager around the Edina neighborhood. I moved to Woodbury around 2019 where I adopted a cat. I grew up with dogs but I've wanted a cat too so now I'd say I'm proficient with both cats and dogs. I work part-time. I have flexible schedule on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Fridays.so I'm pretty much available all day on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. I'm available to stay overnight if that is a need for the pet. I always make sure to establish trust between myself and the pet and the pet parent. I also understand animals need time to adjust to new people and every animal is different. Some also need more space to adjust and I'm that person that will give the time and space the animal needs.
About: I have experience caring for dogs, cats, birds and a wide variety of other animals. I’m excited to meet your pet and provide them everything they need! As a student in wildlife biology I have a fairly flexible schedule. Please contact me about days that are not immediately listed on my profile. Walks, cuddles, feeding, playing, medicating, cleaning up after, and general husbandry/enrichment are just the start of what I can provide for your pets. Please let me know about any particular services you may need!
About: Your pets are part of your family, and they deserve the best care possible. That's exactly what I give every animal I look after. I'm a proud cat mom to Salam and Binx, and I've been caring for other people's pets for years. I've dog sat for my family's goldendoodle for several years and regularly look after friends' cats. I also volunteered at Caring for Cats, where I got hands-on experience with cats of all personalities. I work from home with a flexible schedule, so I can easily fit visits and walks around your pet's routine rather than squeezing them in. I offer house sitting, drop-in visits, and dog walking for cats and small to medium dogs in and around Lake Elmo. You'll get daily photo updates so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing while you're away. I truly love everything about caring for animals, and I'd love to meet yours. I work from home with a flexible schedule, so I can easily fit visits and walks around your pet's routine rather than squeezing them in. I offer house sitting, drop-in visits, and dog walking for cats and small to medium dogs in and around Lake Elmo. I don't host pets in my home, so all of my care happens in yours. Your pet stays in the environment they know best, with their own bed, their own routine, and none of the stress that comes with a new place. In-home visits: Fresh food and water, litter box scooped or potty break handled, medications given as directed, and real time spent with your pet. Play, brushing, or a quiet lap sit, depending on what they're into. I don't rush in and out. Dog walking: Leashed walks at a pace that fits your dog, whether that's a brisk loop or a slow sniff around the block. I keep a close eye on other dogs and traffic, and I always clean up. While you're away: I'm happy to bring in mail and packages, adjust blinds, and keep an eye on things so your home looks lived in. I leave everything exactly as I found it. Before every booking I do a meet and greet so we can go over your pet's routine, quirks, medical needs, and anything that makes them nervous. I want to know where the leash lives and what your vet's number is before you ever leave. You'll get daily photo updates, and I'm always reachable if something comes up.
“Amazing experience! Helen was able to watch my cat on very short notice and did a fantastic job. She sent me pictures and regular updates, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. I especially appreciated that she asked questions whenever she was unsure instead of making assumptions. Helen followed all my instructions carefully and was attentive, responsible, and communicative throughout. I would absolutely recommend her and would happily book with her again!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats! People relied on me to take care of their babies and I did it effectively and with love❤️ I work a full time job but I work 4 days on - 4 days off so I am available during those days off to help! I know many dog parks that is something you’d be comfortable with your pet going to! I could bring my pups as well if you are comfortable with that
“My boy and girl kitties love Mexi! My girl is a bit shy but came right up to her. Loved the pictures she took too I could tell they were in good hands . They were not too mad at me when I came back, which means they did not feel abandoned.”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 8 years and love getting to know each one I meet! My goal is to make sure your dog is happy and well cared for while you’re away. I am currently working part-time, so I have plenty of flexibility to care for your furry friends! I’m most available Mondays, Fridays, and weekends, and I’m also available for morning and evening visits Tuesday through Thursday! It is important to me to follow all feeding, medication, exercise, and care instructions you provide. As a pet owner myself, I understand the need to feel comfortable when they are in someone else’s care. I also love sending photo updates so you can see how they’re doing while you’re away!
About: Proudly rocking three years' pet sitting experience during college caring for cats, dogs, and reptiles. I grew up having hamsters, lizards, a hedgehog, and cats. I just adore animals. Full-time Twin Cities actor with flexible daytime availability, seeking fulfilling side work—nothing makes me happier than caring for your adorable fur babies with love. Unfortunately animals are not allowed in my own due to my roommates allergies but I would treat caring for your fur baby in your home as if it was my owns with the upmost care and respect.
“Denise is amazing! She takes great care of our cat Meatball, during our last trip Denise noticed our home ran out of heating oil, she graciously broight over a stationary space heater that saved oir pipes from freezing - thank you 😊”
About: I've loved animals all my life. I got my first puppy when I was about 13 years old, full of pre-teen enthusiasm for learning all about dog behavior and puppy training strategies. Now that my own beloved dog is no longer with us, I've found myself wishing I had more opportunities to connect with animals on a regular basis. I've taken every chance I could to pet sit for friends and acquaintances over the years, but recently I realized that I could also be using Rover to make pet care a more regular part of my life! Since I'm also meant to share something here that makes me "stand out" as a sitter, I'll say that animals do tend to feel particularly safe and relaxed around me. If I were to take a guess as to why that is, I think I would say that it's probably a combination of: 1) genuinely loving pets and wanting to have a positive interaction with them, 2) not bringing anxious energy into the room, which I think is something that most pets can sense, and 3) knowing enough about animal behavior to not escalate any existing anxieties or aggression. As someone who has had a beloved pet, I know how important it is to find someone to care for your pet that you can trust to accommodate their particular needs, and to create a safe, happy environment for them while you're away. If you'll trust me to be that person, then nothing would make me happier than to give your pet an amazing visit, walk, or staycation! I work full time (8 hours M-F) in Arden Hills, but I have a fairly flexible work schedule. My preference for pet care would be to mostly fit it in before and after work (my hours can usually be adjusted based on a pet's daily schedule), but I also have the flexibility to pop out for short walks in the middle of the day, if needed. I can also work from home if absolutely necessary, but I would not wish to do that frequently. I am not able to host pets in my home at this time, but if I can come and care for your pets at their own home, I am happy to follow whatever instructions you give for how to make your pet feel happy and safe and cared for during your absence! I am a careful instruction follower, so I will refer back to any information you can give me about what your pet is accustomed to when you are home, and how you would like me to care for them when you're gone. If you feel nervous at all about leaving them, I'm also more than happy to send regular updates to you about how they are doing!
“This was my first time having Carol care for my cats and I was so happy to have found her. She took great care of them and gave me regular updates. One of my cats is particularly shy and she came up to Carol the first time they met, which was a huge positive in my book.”

Bethany once again was absolutely amazing! I have such peace of mind knowing she will be looking after our babies. She is attentive, responsive, and always willing to help with extra things like watering plants, collecting mail, and just all the little things I wouldn’t even think to ask about. She truly goes above and beyond, and she will always be my go-to!

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
