About: Hi i’m Sydney! I’ve grown up with dogs and cats my whole life. Me and my furry bestfriend moved to Maui about 5 years ago and just recently made our way back to Minnesota! I have lots of experience with all kinds of dogs as well as training (big, small, old, young, reactive, etc.) I really love meeting new animals and learning how I can provide the best unique experience for them. I currently have a very open and free schedule and can be available on short notice. I look forward to being there for all of your pet care needs. I have a lot of experience caring for pets in their home. Safety and comfort are very important to me. As a nanny I have worked the majority of my time in my employers homes. I am always extremely respectful and cautious when entering anyones home base. If there are ever any specific requests when caring for pets in their home I am more than happy to accommodate them!

I’m also a dog owner myself of a golden retriever, so I understand how important it is to have someone you genuinely trust caring for your best My schedule is currently flexible as I'm in school, which gives me plenty of time to give your pet the attention they deserve. I’m available throughout the week and on weekends for walks, drop-ins, sitting, and other pet care needs! I love walking, I can do 1.5-3.5 miles in a day depending on what is good for your dog! Making sure they feel comfortable is most important while getting exercise no matter the weather. There's nothing I love more than dogs.

About: I’ve grown up with pets my entire life and have always been a natural animal lover — animals tend to love me just as much as I love them. I currently have a few cats and live with my best friend, who has a dog of her own that I help care for regularly (she’s basically mine too!). I also have hands-on experience working with dogs from spending a couple of years at a doggy daycare, where I learned how to care for dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I’m currently a server, and with it being the slow season right now, my availability is very flexible and open for most days and times. I love caring for pets in their own homes, where they feel safe and comfortable. I follow all routines, feeding schedules, and special instructions so your pet gets consistent care and plenty of attention. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or just snuggles, I make sure your pet feels happy, loved, and well looked-after while you’re away.

(I have also been training dogs for 3+ years and wish to offer that soon!) Cats: My first job as a kid was to watch our kind neighbors cat. Meaning I fed, played and cleaned the litter box.

(So please feel free to reach out if you need a visit for these family members as well). I currently have afternoon times available! I am free from Thursday - Sunday from 11am to 10pm. I am currently in school so I have a very flexible schedule during that time to stop by and care for your family member(s). Your dog or cat is a family member. I will care for them just as you would. If you feel I have not met this, I wish for feedback on how I can do better. I am very communicative if you have any concerns or need updates as the visit goes on please feel free to notify me. If I am concerned about your family member(s) I will openly reach out to make sure you know right away and we can figure out what needs to happen next. My goal is to make you the owner feel comfortable with leaving your family member(s) with me and also have your family member(s) be comfortable with me. Thank you for considering me!

About: I am a patient and attentive sitter, and will do my absolute best to meet all of your pets' needs while they are in my care. I will treat your furry friends as well as I would treat my own. I love to go on walks and play, and of course I love to snuggle as well! I am currently working part time, and will have plenty of time to feed, walk, and care for your pets! I hope to make them feel as at home as they usually do. I will have fluctuating flexibility, as I am also a part time Certified Nursing Assistant. I will keep my undivided attention on your pets if/when I take the outside. I will make sure to keep a harness/leash on at all times while outside, unless in a fenced in area like the backyard or a dog park. I will keep them reined in close to me while on walks to avoid ay possible altercations with other dogs. I will keep unsafe foods (grapes, chocolate, garlic, etc.) away from the pets.
About: My family has raised cat(s) and a Rottie. My last cat "Marco" has just went over the rainbow bridge. As a empty nester, I travel more now so need to fill my desire to be around animals through helping people take care of there fur babies. Hi! I'm excited to be back in Minnesota after recently moving home from Florida. Because of my move, I had stopped taking new clients for awhile and my rover reviews are a little bit aged for that reason. I am looking at reconnecting my past clients and meeting many new furry friends and their families! I'm a flight attendant, so my schedule varies, but I always keep my Rover calendar updated so you can easily se my availability. When I'm home, I love spending my time caring for pets and making sure they feel safe, loved and comfortable while you're away. One of my biggest strengths is having a wonderful support system. My dear friend of 30+ years is also a trusted Rover sitter, and we often help each other out with referrals, etc. when needed. It gives both of us extra flexibility and helps ensure the pets in our care always receive reliable, attentive service. Whether your pet needs walks, drop-in visits, overnight care, or just some extra love and attention, I'd be honored to care for them as i they were my own. I can't wait to work with both new and returning clients and build lasting relationships with you and your pet(s). I love helping people and animals. I know 1st hand how important it is to have someone you can trust with your furry family. I have a dependable vehicle and free time to assist people with your fur babies. I intentionally plan my schedule to ensure every pet gets the time, attention, and care they deserve. I prioritize consistency, safety, and communication. You will always receive updates and photos giving you the peace of mind while you are away.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 5,374 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Medina. 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.
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 Medina 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.

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.
