About: I am a stay at home mom of 2 boys, with a flexible schedule. I have owned dogs since I was 6 years old, and have had 3 different rescue dogs of my own in the last 13 years. Every dog I’ve owned has gone through at least 2 levels of basic dog training and/or agility classes. I love dogs of all breeds, and meeting them at their energy level. I can sit on a couch and offer cuddles or go for miles walking out those with the highest energy (like my husky/terrier mix needs). I’m happy to help fill in the gaps for you when you can’t be there for your fur baby. I stay at home, with a very part time job. I have a flexible schedule! I am most available during the day when my boys are at school. My current dog, Nike, has very high energy. We go for daily runs/walks or frequent our favorite dog parks to ensure his exercise needs are met. I am a firm believer that the more those dogs physical needs are met, the better behavior you will see! He’s my best friend, and I can bring him along for socialization on visits, or leave him behind so I can ensure your dog gets all my attention.
About: I’ve had pets my entire life, from dogs and cats to turtles and horses! Being around animals makes me very happy and this is a way that I love to destress! I would absolutely love to help you and add a little less stress or worry to your day by playing with your dog(s), taking them on walks, whatever you might need! It causes for less stress on both parties! I used to work on a farm and my job was to feed all the animals (over 50!!) in a timely way and I absolutely loved it! If your dog has a special meal plan I will make sure to adhere to it and that they get lots of love and pets along the way!
“Briana is truly one of a kind! It’s hard to find someone you can trust completely with your pets, but from the moment we met her, we knew our puppy was in wonderful hands. She is so kind, dependable, and genuinely caring. She treats our pup like he is her own. Knowing he is happy, loved, and well cared for while we’re away gives us such peace of mind. We are incredibly grateful for Briana and feel so lucky to have found her. We couldn’t recommend her more highly!”
“Sue is a very kind and compassionate person. She took care of my senior dog Joey. I could tell Joey was very comfortable with her by seeing all the pictures of him and the many detailed texts that I received from Sue. Would use Sue again in a heartbeat!”
About: I have two years of hands on pet care experience from nannying for a family with two children and they’re young puppy. I regularly walked, fed, played with, and cared for the puppy as part of my daily responsibilities. I also have experience caring for senior dogs, and dogs with special needs. I am comfortable providing daily exercise, administering oral medication, and giving injections when needed. I’m responsible, attentive and genuinely love making sure every dog feels safe, happy, and well cared for. As a recent college graduate, I currently have a flexible schedule while I search for a full-time position. I love spending my free time being active, going on long walks, jogs, and caring for dogs. So pet care is a great fit for my routine. My flexible availability allows me to accommodate a variety of walking and drop-in schedules, including daytime care during the week. I’m a strong communicator and detail oriented, so I take pet care instructions seriously and keep owners updated. I’m also a bit of a clean freak, so I always respect the clients home, clean up after the pets, and leave everything tidy. Most importantly, I prioritize safety, follow routines closely, and make sure pets feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for while their owners are away.
“Kristen is INCREDIBLE with both our cat and dog! It’s rare to find a sitter that works so well with both so we always feel so lucky when we’re able to book Kristen as our sitter.”
“Jenna was great with our cats. We’ve had her take care of them twice now. I love that we can leave on vacation and I don’t have to worry about our pets at all. I know they will be well cared for.”
About: Hi! I’m currently available as a drop-in sitter with an open and flexible schedule, and I would love to help take care of your pet(s)! I have experience taking care of both cats and dogs since I was a kid, and I’ve also been the sole owner of a cat for 4 years now. All pets receive the upmost care on my watch, and I would treat your pet as if it were my own. I’m excellent at maintaining schedules and routine care (feeding, medication, some grooming etc.), following instructions, sending updates, being reliable and adaptable, and overall ensuring your pet’s needs are met. I’m very flexible and available any day of the week and most times of the day, but I would prefer at least a day’s notice beforehand for when you need care. In my home, there’s my 1 cat as well as 2 dogs that are my parents’ dogs. With my cat, she has a daily feeding schedule (4 divided meals at 4-hour intervals) that I’ve maintained for the last few years, and I also scoop her litter daily, keep up with her routine care, and make sure she gets lots of attention and stimulation. I also help with my parents’ dogs when needed as well such as letting them outside, feeding them and providing water when needed, taking one of them on walks, etc.
“Madilyn was available on short notice and did such a wonderful job looking after our cat. Her detailed notes and adorable photos put us at ease while we were away. We highly recommend Madilyn!”
About: I have had dogs since I was a child. My first dog of my own I had for 15 years until she passed. Have raised dogs from puppy to senior. When with me pets are treated like family. Have done drop in care for friends cats although I have not had cats of my own. Currently work full time but have availability to stop home for lunch breaks to take pets out. Evenings/weekends are full of time at home in the yard/garden and burning my pups energy. I have a fully fenced yard. One energetic pup that would love friends to play with. Can kennel if necessary. Pets are allowed on furniture.
“Kalia is reliable and very communicative, in a helpful manner. My house looks like it was left when I return home and things are kept tidy which I appreciate! I would recommend her!”
About: Hey there! My name is Courtney, I am 30 years old and I’ve always loved dogs! I currently live with my husband, our 3 year old son, and our 2 lab-mixed rescues (black lab 8y, yellow lab 6y). I have used Rover over the last 9 years and love meeting new pups. I primarily offer walks and drop-ins, but have flexibility for dog sitting or house sitting as well. I absolutely love walking around near my house or traveling to other areas, and try getting outside as much as possible. I have a very flexible work schedule that accommodates any obligations I have, as well as work from home capabilities. My weekends tend to be very open as well, as long as I have notice and a schedule. I look forward to (hopefully) working with you and your furry friend as soon as possible! ***Also taking recurring dog walking or house visits! Primarily in the summer months but open to other times of year! I am a very schedule oriented person with a lot of love for furry friends. Having grown up with dogs, and now two dogs of my own, I understand the commitment and devotion needed for furry friends. Safety and trust are the first steps in any pet care scenario. I want the dog to get acclimated to me as I am to them, and to know I’m here to help and spend quality time together. I have done many types of care including onboarding, walking, drop in, house sitting, and medication administering.
About: I have had dogs all my life and have had my own for 5 years now. I love spending time and walking my girl and would love to do the same for yours! I am available all day on Mondays, Fridays, and Saturdays. I am occasionally available in the mornings on Tuesday-Thursday with the right amount of notice. I can provide walking around your neighborhood/playing in your back yard or inside with the dog and their toys. I am unable to provide care for other dogs in my own home.
About: I have had my own dogs for the past year or two and absolutely love spending time with dogs. I understand their needs and try my best to make sure each dog gets their own individual needs taken care of. I do this on the side and my schedule is variable. I love to get to know the owners and dogs together, while taking all the necessary precautions to stay safe right now. I am willing to give baths and clip nails if needed, as long as the dog cooperates. I love being able to keep the dog(s) active and engaged because I understand the need for engagement and exercise. I may not have any professional experience but I love everything dog and will work extra hard to make sure your dog is loved and cared for! I usually have mornings open so I can walk your dogs and get them up and moving in the beginning of the day! I am born and raised minnesotan so I also know how to brave the weather so you don't have to My dog is very needy and loves attention so I'm also used to having a dog around and keeping them engaged! I am very good at reading what they need and how they are communicating! I love being interactive with the dog and keeping them happy!
About: I grew up on a farm caring for all variety of animals. I am a dog mom of 2 pit mixes, and I adore puppies!! I love long walks on trails and neighborhoods, giving kisses while watching the sunset, and all about fine-dining treats! I work from home so I have the flexibility to care for your pets! I am active as well as love being a couch potato. I can take long or short walks (I need my steps!!) I am consistent and flexible! I have cared for many pets throughout my life, I am alert to any issues, and I am strong for those heavy pullers on a leash

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Maple Grove
Lauren did another excellent job with home visits to our two cats and our very elderly dog, Milo. She ran into some challenges with Milo taking his seizure medications and took the initiative to get two separate flavors of pill pockets. She was timely with the visits and responded very promptly to questions. We are very pleased.
Debdatta was fantastic during her drop-in visits with our dog, Summer. She took great care of her, making sure she was fed, walked, and given plenty of attention. It was clear from her updates and communication that she genuinely cared about Summer’s well-being. We felt completely at ease knowing Summer was in such good hands. I highly recommend Debdatta to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate caregiver, and we will definitely be using her again!

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Maple Grove is $21 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $36 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.

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.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Maple Grove choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 .
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

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.
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
