“I had a great experience with Lindsey. She setup a time to meet with me and my cat to talk through his needs and be introduced. She kept me informed while I was away with pictures and updates about my cat, which made me feel much better about leaving my pet alone.”

“Katie was great, she came through on a somewhat last minute request when my prior sitter was no longer available, and made it work! I came home to a pretty mellow kitty and had the ease of knowing she was getting some love while I was away. No complaints!!”

“Thank you so much for taking care of Bruce in a pinch! Good communicator and was able to figure out how to take care of my dog with little heads up. Thank you! Would recommend to others.”

“Paige was very prompt and communication was great. My shy cat even sat on her lap for pets, so she definitely is the right fit for us. The dogs did well too. We will have her back.”

“Jacqueline did a great job with our puppy! She sent photos, fed him, took him out potty and played with him! I'd definitely recommend her and will be asking her to watch our pup again soon!”

“Alexandra was absolutely wonderful with our dogs. She’s always on time, communicative, friendly and so caring to the dogs. Will always use her for our dog sitting needs!!!”

“We had no worries after meeting Katherine at the meet and greet! She took such great care of our dogs, who we rarely have anyone outside of family watch. We are always nervous to leave one of our dogs who struggles with being anxious when we are away, and he took to her right away with no issues. She provided real time updates, and great photos! Our dogs loved her and we will definitely be using her in the future!”

“Meredith was incredibly thoughtful and reliable! I was so thankful for the detailed daily updates when I was gone for the week, and my cat seemed to truly love her!”


“Andrea was great. She arranged meetings free of charge to see if everything was a good fit before we committed. She often sent pictures to us to let us know our puppy was well taken care of. She also gave us many tips that were well appreciated as first-time puppy owners. Your pooch will be in great hands if you go with Andrea.”

“I had to travel for work last minute and Jennifer helped me so much. She checked on my two cats and a dog twice a day while I was gone with pictures and she even brought in my mail. Thank you Jennifer!”

About: I’ve had different breeds of both cats and dogs throughout my entire childhood so I understand the responsibilities needed to properly take care of a variety of pets. My parents have also been on Rover for a couple of years and I alway love helping them out! This also means I understand the apps processes and how to navigate it. I’m a college student at Macalester college, so right now I’m on summer break. I am flexible with owners schedules and willing to driving all around the metro for visits or at home stays! I can do whatever the owner feels is necessary for their pet. Whether it’s putting pets into crates, or active play, or if meals need to be more hands on, I feel comfortable caring for them in pretty much any situation. I don’t have much experience caring for dogs with special needs, so some animals who need that type of assistance might be out of the realm of care I can provide.
About: Hi, I’m Caitlyn, you can also call me Wren! I have experience caring for several family dogs, one of which was a senior and had lots of mobility issues and pain, so I got comfortable helping her get around safely and giving her medicine. I have also watched many dogs of various sizes & needs for neighbors and friends. I love taking dogs on walks (if they are able), and am happy to match whatever their energy level is! I have a flexible schedule, working just part time and attending one college course, so I have plenty of availability to spend time with your fur babies! I understand the level of trust placed in me when going into other peoples’ homes to care for their pets, so I am conscious to always leave the space as I found it and go over with clients the spaces and items I should and should not interact with. I am happy to provide extra services like grabbing mail & watering plants if you would like, just let me know!

About: I have years of hands-on pet care experience through both personal and professional care. I currently work in in-home pet care providing dog walking and cat sitting services, where I assist with daily routines such as feeding, walks, litter care, playtime, and companionship. I grew up around both dogs and cats and have always been comfortable caring for animals of different personalities and energy levels. I’ve also cared for cats long-term in my own home, which has given me experience with daily care and building trust with pets. I focus on keeping pets safe, calm, and well cared for while their owners are away. I’m available to care for cats & dogs on weekdays from 7:30 AM to 2:00 PM while my daughter is at school. During this time, I can provide feeding, walks, playtime, cuddles, and attention to make sure your pet feels happy and comfortable. I focus on following each pet’s normal routine and making sure they feel safe, calm, and well cared for throughout the visit. I care for pets by following their usual routines, including feeding, fresh water, walks, and litter box maintenance when needed. I give plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, and affection to make sure each pet feels safe and comfortable. I can also administer medications if needed. I make sure pets are cared for in a clean, safe, and calm environment, whether I’m visiting their home or caring for them in my own. I have experience caring for both cats and dogs, including managing multiple pets at once and ensuring each one receives proper attention and care. 💕
About: I grew up with dogs, mostly yellow Labrador retrievers. I also had a dog of my own through college and lived with 3 dogs for several years, so I am comfortable with feeding, walking, etc. I am working part-time in the mornings, so I have full afternoons and weekends available for pet care. My children are also with me at all times. I have a fenced in yard for safe playing outdoors, and two children who enjoy playing with dogs, so we can keep your dog safe and entertained
About: Andrew grew up taking care of family dogs, and Katie grew up caring for family cats. Together, our family had a dog for over 12 years who recently passed away. We love animals and find joy in caring for them! Katie works full time from home so is available to take wonderful care of your pet! On the weekends, our entire family is home and can provide care and plenty of time for play for your pet! We have a fenced in yard and currently no animals of our own in our house. We are also available to come to your home for walks or to spend time with your pet during the day.
About: I am new to Rover, but I have many years of experience in taking care of animals. In addition to living with cats and dogs for most of my life, I have also volunteered as a dog walker at the humane society. In addition to pets, I also volunteered at the Wildlife Science Center with feeding animals such as foxes, raccoons, bobcats, a lynx, and skunks, and I had the opportunity to care for wolf pups at the International Wolf Center. I am recently retired, so my schedule is flexible. I am available during the day and most evenings and am able to work around your schedule. I currently have two cats and previously had dogs, so I understand the importance of keeping them on a regular schedule. Being around animals gives me joy, so I look forward to spending quality time with your pet. I follow your instructions and make sure to follow your pet’s lead when interacting with them. I send you pictures, so you can see how your pet is doing when you are away. I can also check mail and water plants if needed.
“Heather did absolutely amazing with my pups! I am always nervous about having new people around my pups, but Heather connected with them really well and it was obvious she cared for them. Highly recommend!”

Mendota Heights pet parents share their Rover experiences
Amy checked on our kitties routinely while we were out of town for three weeks. We arrived home to find that they had been well-cared for: plenty of food and water, and clean litter-boxes. We would definitely engage her again in the future, and recommend her to others.
