“Our dog, Khota, has gotten really attached to Kira but we're not surprised because she's great with him, knowledgeable and very dedicated to her work. We have the utmost confidence in leaving our little, four legged family member with her and will continue to have her watch Khota for the foreseeable future.”

“Cleo had a great time with Timmothy!! I loved his updates through the day and he asked many questions beforehand to make sure he understood how to care for her :)”


“Great experience having Robert watch my pup - highly recommended, especially for a high-energy dog. Will definitely be coming to him in the future when I need someone to take care of her while I'm in Minneapolis.”

“Absolutely incredible experience. Celia was easy to communicate with and sent me pics of my pup throughout the day. I would love to book again - highly recommmend”

“Karen and Ryan have been the best sitters for my puppy. He’s always so happy to go to their house. They’ve been feeding him and helping with a medical need during the day and are flexible when I’m running late from work. Would recommend them to friends and family!”

“Emilie was so good to my dog, Walter. I felt really comfortable leaving her with him for the whole day. She sent tons of pictures of him while I was at work and said he played all day -- which was perfect! I'm definitely going to be rebooking in the future. :-) Walter was pooped once we got home.”

“Alyson is wonderful! Our pup stayed with her while we were visiting town and I'm so so glad we found her. Alyson was super responsive and easy to communicate with and really flexible. Plus my pup was zonked out after we picked him up, so he must have played a lot and had a great time.”


“I appreciate Howie and the care he provided my pup! He had a blast and smiled all night! I feel good leaving him with Howie and I know he will be cared for the way I would.”

About: I have grown up with dogs all my life, ranging in sizes from mini - extra large! I have always had a love for taking care of dog and I would love to meet yours! I am a volunteer for No Dogs Left Behind- that is where we rescued our Willy boy from! We also temporarily foster from time to time. If there are any commands or simple trainings that you would like for me to work on, I am happy to. I have a very flexible work schedule that allows me too plan my day around your dogs needs! My typical day consist of breakfast and potty 7-8am, Midmorning playtime/ potty, 2-3pm lunch then potty, 4:30pm playtime/ walk, 7pm dinner, 8pm night walk. I live on a first floor apartment with a partially fenced in backyard, making it easy to let your fur baby out to play and potty as much as needed! I know how scared it is to leave your furry friend for the day and or a long trip. I will assure you that my household is a welcoming, fun, and calming environment! I live about 10 minutes away walking to the lake of the Isles dog park (if you are comfortable with it) and have the Greenway 200 feet away for great walks and sniffs. My dog William, the love bug, gets along great with all breeds and sizes.

“It was my 3 month old puppy’s first time at doggy daycare and Lydia made me feel very comfortable leaving my puppy alone for the whole day with Lydia’s own puppies and other dogs she was taking care of. She also took pictures to update me on my puppy. Will definitely book Lydia again.”

“Grace!! What is there not to say, she was such a wonderful dog sitter. My dogs had a blast with her! We had an emergency at the time of pickup which resulted in an additional delay of pickup & she was super understanding. If we’re back in the city again I will be using grace again via rover Thanks so much again Grace! ❤️”

About: Thank you for confirming that you are in my service area before booking my services! Having grown up with both cats and dogs, I have a deep love for animals. As a responsible caregiver, I prioritize the safety and happiness of your pets, treating them with love and respect. I provide updates and pictures throughout each visit. I am happy to meet you and your pet before our first appointment to discuss their specific needs. I have experience with senior pets, special dietary needs, and administering medication. What sets me apart from other pet sitters along with having a natural way with animals I only take one pet at a time (unless you have more than one pet). I work from home which means your pet will not be left alone for several hours while I’m at work. I adhere to a structured schedule for pets, including feeding times, treats, walks, and potty breaks, which helps them feel secure, (I am extremely responsible and responsive which my response time indicates). My home is extremely organized and pet friendly. I always leave your home the same way. Feel free to look at pics of my pet clients! (I think my pictures show I’ve had lots of animals who have been very comfortable in my care). 🐈⬛🐕🦺🐾🦮🐾🐾🐾🐾

About: I've always had an immense love of animals. I grew up with two cats and a small dog, have volunteered at animal shelters since I was a kid, and currently help care for my boyfriend's cat. I also bring two years of hands-on experience working at a pet store, where I handled animals daily and learned a lot about their behavior and needs. Animals have always felt like a natural part of my life, and I treat every pet in my care like my own! As a student taking online classes this summer, I have a very flexible schedule with plenty of time to dedicate to pet care throughout the day, including walks, playtime, and potty breaks. I live in a Minneapolis apartment with a pet courtyard for easy potty breaks and access to nearby parks and river trails for walks. I keep a calm, clean home environment and treat every pet like my own. I always communicate with owners through updates and photos so they feel confident their pet is in good hands.
“She was absolutely amazing! I'm a rover sitter myself and have been for years and even though she is newer to the game she's doing absolutely everything right! My dog is very sleepy and happy, I will absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her”

“Jody takes amazing care of my pup. She is very diligent and caring, and has gone above and beyond for Roma when she has been sick. I trust Jody and continue to bring my dog for regular pet sitting. Jody is great.”


“Marisa did a great job handling three-month-old Basie’s first time away from his home and family. She even took the time to do a meet-and-greet between her dog and Basie ahead of time to make sure they would get along together. She also made sure that Basie had fun and got to do some safe exploring and socializing. I would definitely feel comfortable having her look after Basie in the future.”

“Susie did an amazing job with our pup Quinn! She was very communicative and took great care of our dog. I highly recommend Susie for your pets care!”

“Michelle and her dog Stewie are so great!! Roo was always excited to go for the day and clearly loved them both. Michelle kept us updated, sent cute pics, and was very easy to communicate with. Thanks, Michelle and Stewie!”

“Ellen is so patient & understanding with my fearful dog. I drop my dog off with a wagging tail which says a lot! I am so grateful for her & her availability and communication.”

Karen and Ryan were fantastic caregivers for our senior dog, Kurt. Great communication before and during the visit. Beautiful home with a wonderful fenced yard. Super flexible with drop off and pick up times. Very friendly and professional. Kurt loved his three days with them. I highly recommend Karen and Ryan for your pet-sitting needs in Minneapolis.
Anna was wonderful. She looked after our Vizsla for a day whilst we attended a wedding in Minneapolis. As out of towners, she really helped us out by occupying Red and entertaining him for the day! Thank you so much Anna! Red seemed very content when we picked him up and it looks like he had a lot of fun with you!

Kimi was absolutely amazing with my puppy, Scotch! He adored her from the start. She took him on long walks, kept me updated throughout his daycare stay, and gave him so much love and attention. It gave me total peace of mind knowing he was in such great hands. 10/10 recommend!

While attending an event in Minneapolis Georgia took care of our 13yr old mini Aussie for two evenings and even picked her up at our hotel lobby. She is so responsible, so kind, so punctual. Thank you, Georgia, for making our doggie logistics totally stress-free during our trip.
