“Lindsay did a great job of walking Gracie and her reliability and communication is spectacular! She was very detail oriented at our meet and greet answering all my neurotic pet owner questions along with helping me learn to navigate Rover. Gracie and I are looking forward to more walks with her!”
“Carrie was amazing! Great communication, on time and great pictures of our dog for her walks! Millie seemed like she had a blast with Carrie and had lots of play dates with her dog! I felt very comfortable leaving Millie in her hands. Thanks again!”
About: I am a flight attendant with a bachelor’s degree in Animal science! So connecting with people and pets are my niche! Fur babies are welcomed! I can pick up trips to give me the most flexibility with my work schedule. I can do pop-ins as well as overnights if needed! I have experience working with cats and dogs at emergency hospitals and smaller veterinary clinics. I also have a indoor super sweet cat named snowbell.
“Jacqueline has been very professional and flexible when scheduling future walks. She has done a great job with Jasmine! My dog loves the winter weather and Jacqueline is very willing to take her out so she can enjoy walking in the snow!”
About: I grew up with cats and dogs, and I've got two cats and a doggo of my own. I'll treat your pup like their part of my pack. I'm working from home on Mondays and in the office on Tuesday and Wednesday. I can come home over lunch if boarding during the week. I have a fenced in yard and a great neighborhood for taking walks. I can provide a separate room for pets, as well as a crate, if needed.
“Amanda has been wonderful with my dog and came through last minute to help with walks when I couldn’t do them. Kind, reliable, communicates well, and Henry is always happy to see her. I always know he’s in good hands!”
About: Hi! We're lifelong dog lovers with plenty of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. We have two friendly dogs of our own who are part of the family, so we understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets. Our home has a fully fenced yard, giving dogs a safe and secure space to play, explore, and burn off energy. Over the years, we've cared for many dogs through pet sitting and have also fostered dogs, giving us experience with different temperaments, routines, and special needs. Whether your dog loves to play, go for walks, or simply relax and get plenty of cuddles, we'll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. We treat every dog as if they were our own and are committed to providing reliable, attentive care and regular updates so you can have peace of mind. We can't wait to meet you and your furry family member! We are a loving family of 2 adults and 2 dogs. One of us works from home full time and the other works not too far away from home so your pets will be well loved. We have a fenced yard to keep your doggies safe and 2 dogs of our own that love having "friends" over. We have done foster care for dogs and have also dog sat dogs.
About: Hello pet parents of Minneapolis! My name is Rebecca, and I am here to offer you top-notch pet sitting services. With a profound love for dogs, I provide personalized care that ensures your furry friend is not just looked after but truly pampered. Whether you need assistance with dog walking or drop in (looking to board after my first month on here), I have the experience and dedication to handle it all. Each walk is filled with fun and exercise to keep your dog happy and healthy. When it comes to check ins, being gentle and respectful of their space and needs is my top priority. As a pet sitter, I offer a safe and loving environment while you're away. You can rest assured knowing that your pet is in capable hands. If you're looking for someone who genuinely cares about your dog and understands their needs, please feel free to message me. I am eager to meet you and your furry family member! I currently have a flexible work schedule that does need me to travel sometimes for overnights. No traveling would occur during boarding. My dog of 5 years passed away earlier this year and I am looking for an outlet to scratch the pet-itch. We often did morning, afternoon, and evening walks. He was a reactive dog that was kid and dog aggressive, so we implement positive reinforcement training to successfully reduce reactivity. Caring for our furry friends means more than just taking them out for walks and feeding them. It is a time to connect and understand their needs. I’ll never push a dog to like me by petting them when they aren’t ready. I have an understanding of dog body language that I pay attention to. Play is one of my favorite ways to connect with animals - each one will have a different play style that I’ll be attuned to.
About: I’ve always had such a strong love for animals both dogs, cats and more! I grew up with both cats and dogs in my family and have experience with animals of all ages including puppies & kittens and senior dogs and cats. I have experience in providing medicine, treatment, nail trimmings, and more to both cats and dogs in a gentle and careful way! I am very caring and will always make sure your animal is my #1 priority I currently work from home going in the office once a week so I have lots of flexibility to do drop in during lunch time, before or after work and weekends. Since I work from home I am always available at anytime in case of an emergency as well. I currently have two cats that I care for like they are my children (because they are!) both cats are rescues with very different personalities and comforts. Litter boxes are cleaned daily and deep cleaned weekly. They are fed half wet feed half dry food diet and fed portion sizes, not free fed. We have pet insurance so take them to the vet as we see fit - more than yearly! When I lived with my parents and their dog we would do daily walks/hikes and I also helped train him!
About: With 11 years of hands-on experience caring for both my own pets and others’, I specialize in cats and dogs — I know how to read their body language, keep them comfortable, and stick to their routines. Since I work from home, your pet gets consistent attention throughout the day, not just quick check-ins. And because I don’t have other pets in my home, your pet gets my full, undivided attention — no competing for space, food, or affection with a resident animal. Pet care fits naturally into my everyday life, not just around it. My work is flexible, so I’m either home or able to come back frequently throughout the day — your pet won’t be left alone for long stretches. I’m available all seven days of the week, so there’s no gap in coverage between weekdays and weekends. Boarding • Your pet stays in my home with no other pets competing for attention. I keep feeding and routines on schedule, and since I work from home, someone’s around for most of the day. Drop-ins • I follow whatever routine you’ve set — feeding, medication, fresh water, litter box or potty breaks, and playtime — with a photo update after each visit. Walks • One walk a day, paced to your pet’s comfort level, on-leash and supervised the whole time. I pay close attention to their cues, especially with cats and small-to-medium dogs, where I have the most hands-on experience. House-sitting • I usually do NOT stay at clients homes overnight or for extended periods during the day! • I will check in with your pets in the AM/PM (as needed) and follow their routines so their schedule is consistent, and provide photos throughout the stay. *Every visit ends with a photo, so you always know your pet is happy and cared for.
About: I've had dogs my entire life. Many of my neighbors and friends trust me to take care of their dogs while at work or on vacation. I've had experience with dogs of all sizes, temperments, and ages. I enjoy learning each animal's personality and how best take care of them. I strive to make every day exciting and enriching for each animal! I currently work a part-time job, I am available all day on Tuesdays and Thursdays and most weekends as well as any day after 5 pm. The care and safety of your pet is of utmost importance to me. Communication is very big for me, I send pictures and updates of your pet throughout the care period. I want to stick to the routine your pet is comfortable with so they feel safe and secure while in my care!
“Mckenzie was fantastic! Super professional, always on-time, and always checked-in with pictures of my pup while she was walking him. You won’t regret working with her.”
About: I have had pets all my life and currently have a Great Dane who is the sweetest dog.i have had cats, dogs, and a rabbit. I can take care of pets on the weekends. I love to stay active so dog walks are fun. I work from home during the week. I take my dog outside frequently for potty breaks. Long walks are her favorite. She’s not a big cuddler but i do like dogs that like to cuddle.
About: I’ve never known life without animals. Growing up in what our neighbors called the “Dr. Doolittle house” meant there was always a furry friend (or a few!) to care for. It taught me that every pet deserves patience, love, and individualized care. Whether your pet wants to play, explore, or simply snuggle on the couch, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and right at home until you return 😊 Pet care is already part of my everyday routine! I work from home most days, and when I do go into the office, it’s typically only for a few hours. I have two dogs of my own, so I’m used to consistent schedule of walks, feeding, potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of love and attention. I’ll make sure your furry friend gets the same reliable care and sticks to their normal routine while you’re away. Every pet is different so I always take the time to learn their routine, personality, and preferences. Whether I’m stopping by for a potty break, taking them on a walk, or staying overnight, I’ll make sure they receive plenty of love, attention, exercise, and care while sticking as closely as possible to their normal schedule. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and happy while giving you the peace of mind that they’re in good hands!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Mendota
Tilia did a great job with our pups. She was very kind and generous with her time and made it super easy for me as the owner. I barely noticed her coming and going but I know the dogs got some good exercise in. I appreciate her flexibility with splitting the walk between our older and younger pup who walk at very different paces.
Highly recommend Jennifer!! My XL dog Panda warmed up to her immediately, and she has been totally comfortable and confident walking him even though he can be dog reactive. She’s also been wonderful with my small dog Alfie, who is very fearful of people and was recently diagnosed with epilepsy. He’s been having a hard time adjusting to the medication, and Jennifer has been incredibly patient with him while truly going above and beyond to earn his trust. She was also very flexible and understanding when Alfie wouldn’t walk because of the medication side effects, happily pivoting to playing with him in the backyard instead. It’s such a relief knowing my dogs are in such caring, capable, and attentive hands.

Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Mendota. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins.

Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone.

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 walker.
