“Stefanie is the best. She takes great care of my rambunctious 2 frenchies and they adore her. She's very conscientious and prompt and I know my pups are getting attention and being well cared for.”
About: Previously owned and trained our family dog until his passing some years ago. I have birds, fish, and have been caring for family friends' dogs. I am currently willing to help, care, and walk your dogs. A great way to fill in the time as I stay home, go to school, and improve life as to looking forward to care for your dog. My dog was fed a mix of wet and dry food, water bowl always full, and daily drive/park/play/walks/hikes (regarding the weather at the current moment of time).
About: I’ve been taken care of animals most of my life for family members or friends, I have pets of my own that I have trained and raised as well from young ages to taking care of senior pets. I’m am not currently working so I have plenty of time to devote to caring for your amazing animals, I do have young children but they are wonderful with animals or can be taken care of by my mother so I can care for your fur babies. I live in a townhouse, but they are open to any breed of dogs, I have plenty of places to walk animals in my own home. I have a vehicle that can get to, and from places. I will be very respectful of your home so if you need me to watch your animal there I can do that as well.
About: I'm a retired officer, background-checked through Rover, and have more than 10 years of experience caring for my own dogs as well as friends', family members', and clients' pets. Throughout my career and personal life, responsibility, trustworthiness, and attention to detail have always been important to me, and I bring those same qualities to every pet I care for. In 2016, I adopted Barney the Shih Tzu, followed by Jack in 2019. Both were estimated to be about four years old at the time. In 2025, Jack passed away from bone cancer, giving me firsthand experience caring for a senior dog with significant medical needs. In 2022, I rescued Penny, the white pup in my profile photo. Certifications & Experience • Cat & Dog First Aid (American Red Cross) • Experience administering oral medications • Experience caring for senior pets and pets with special needs • Experience caring for dogs and cats of various ages, sizes, and temperaments, including a large Rottweiler I believe every pet deserves patience, kindness, consistency, and individualized care. Whether your pet is energetic and playful, senior and slower-paced, or simply happiest sticking to a familiar routine, my goal is to provide dependable care while helping them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine, and I'm home much of the time. This allows me to provide regular companionship, potty breaks, feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and supervision throughout the day. Because I intentionally limit the number of pets I care for at one time, I am able to provide a more personalized level of attention and maintain a calmer environment for the pets in my care. Whether caring for pets in my home or in a client's home, I strive to maintain their normal routine as closely as possible. Consistency helps pets feel comfortable, secure, and relaxed while their owners are away. My schedule is generally flexible, allowing me to accommodate a variety of care needs, including daycare, overnight care, drop-in visits, and pet sitting in a client's home. Pick-up and drop-off service may be available depending on distance and scheduling. My dogs are part of the family and spend much of their time relaxing near us, on the furniture, or curled up on a lap. Visiting pets are treated with the same level of care, attention, and companionship while in my home. Dogs are welcome on furniture unless owners request otherwise. I intentionally limit the number of guest dogs I accept at one time to help create a calm, safe, and low-stress environment. This allows me to provide close supervision and a more personalized experience than many high-volume pet care settings. If you prefer your dog to be crated for sleeping, feeding, or when unattended, I'm happy to accommodate as long as a crate is provided. Visiting dogs should be reasonably housebroken, with exceptions considered on a case-by-case basis for puppies and special circumstances. Meet-and-greets are strongly preferred whenever possible before services begin. They allow me to learn about your pet's personality, needs, and comfort level while helping determine whether my home and care style are a good fit. When caring for pets in a client's home, I respect both the pet's routine and the owner's home, providing dependable care, companionship, exercise, and attentive supervision. I believe every pet deserves patience, kindness, consistency, and respect. My goal is to provide a safe, comfortable environment where pets can feel relaxed, secure, and well cared for while their owners are away.
About: I grew up being the designated dog sitter for multiple family members. They would go on trips for about 1-2 weeks where I would stay at their place and take care of their dog! I am pretty good about time management and can adjust to the pets schedule! I am currently looking for a job in the healthcare field and while times may be tough landing a job, I wanted to fill the time with taking care of pets when other's are busy! I am available most of the time! I have multiple rooms if pets need to be separated and a backyard if dogs are okay with that. Otherwise, I would keep them by my side for the most part and make sure they are getting everything they need. I have 2 cats at home who are skiddish at first, but relax if no real harm is present!
About: Hello, my name is Abbi! I would love to help lighten your load and cherish your pets! I have owned cats and dogs. I also have worked as a caregiver for developmentally disabled adults as well as babysitting jobs when I was younger. That being said I am well versed on administering medications and keeping grooming standards. I have a slightly flexible schedule that I hope will be convenient to your pets needs. I’m willing to negotiate. I hope to hear from you and work together soon! I work from home and live in a facility with a fenced in dog park. There are no other animals or children in my home. I like to keep my full attention on any animal in my care whilst they’re awake. I keep animals close by to me so I can monitor them. I don’t keep anything in my home that is hazardous to them.
“He's been so consistent and patient with Athena! She's learned not only to trust him, but quickly obey his commands. Athena has welcomed Mike as part of her pack, in charge of belly rubs!”
“Elizabeth is phenomenal. She is super responsive, kind, and great with Kitty. I’m so excited to get updates from her and see what cute pics she took that day. Thank you so so so much.”
“So thankful for Cecilia! Nobody is home to let my Ben out two days out of the week during work hours. Cecilia has solved that problem. She sends pictures during her visit and I'm very happy and grateful to have her check on my little guy. Thank you!!!”
About: I trained my reactive childhood dog at 16, and had great success! After he passed, I began volunteering at my local shelter. I can’t afford a dog right now, so I have much love saved up to share with everyone else’s dogs! I work part time, and I’m in school. I’m free Mondays after 2pm and Wednesdays after 2pm - Thursday before 4pm for an overnight stay. I have a separate unit in my home where my cats stay when dogs come over, so don’t worry if your dog isn’t cat friendly! I have a large fenced yard, with lots of things to sniff and squirrels to chase.
About: I have loved animals since I first learned what an animal was and 27 years into life I haven't stopped! I have 7+ years of dog/cat/house sitting experience and I can administer medications if needed, along with taking care of other typical pet sitting tasks such as feeding, walking, playing, bathing, and of course, offering lots of affection and pets! Currently I’m in school (mostly online) for pre vet-med and working just as a pet sitter so I have plenty of free time to watch over your fur babies! :) I am always willing to personalize my services to best conform to your pets' medical, physical, and emotional well-being, just let me know what specific needs your pet(s) have and I will cater to them!
“Jessica did a fantastic job with my semi antisocial cat. The frequent visits and contact seemed to help tremendously while I was away. I came home from a long vacation to a happy and healthy cat. I couldn’t ask for more. I will definitely be using Jessica’s services in the future!”
About: I absolutely love dogs and all animals! I’m available pretty much full time! I have worked with dogs and done dog walking and boarding for a while now and truely find animals to be my passion! I have very cool trails by my house that range from 1 miles to 5 miles. I also have two great dog parks less than 2 miles away! I even have a small dog park in my neighborhood. I would take care of all their specific needs and update the owners with videos and pictures and check ups through out the day! you would not be disappointed by choosing me to care for your pup! I am home full time and work from home. I would have a lot of time to spend with your animals! From playing at home to going on walks I have taken care of animals for a long time and really love what I do and my husband does also enjoy having the dogs here as we are a family of animal lovers .
About: Dogs have always been great. So interesting and fun. Other than the few I’ve owned I’ve taken care of pets of friends and neighbors. Happy to help out. Lately I’ve been in need a job. A lot harder to find something close to home and flexible. I need something to keep me busy. I offer pretty standard services such as walking(includes allowing pets to use the bathroom), grooming, feeding and bathing of pets. Keeping them company making sure they don’t feel lonely.
“We just got home from our trip and we're happy to have Cristal take good care of our cats. She's been amazing in giving daily updates and photos, and for her extra care and effort, which made us at ease while we're away. I'll definitely be booking her in the future!”

Tia was gentle and calm with my Whippet puppy, and he was happy to stay home with her. This was his first time being home without me, and I was very glad that Tia was able to make it an easy and comfortable experience for him. I highly recommend Tia and am grateful for her caring close attention to my young puppy.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Maltby is $27 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $27 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 10,638 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Maltby. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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 Rover's Trust & Safety page.
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 Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Maltby. On Rover:
- 85% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 89% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 93% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
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.
