Pet Sitting Minnehaha

“Dana was awesome with my dogs! She seemed to really love them and took amazing care of them. Each time she visited she sent me daily updates, along with pictures, which let me know that all was good. It was very reassuring. I would highly recommend her!”

“I’m so glad we booked Sarah to watch our two cats while we were traveling for a week! It’s clear she loves animals, and she really went above and beyond in caring for ours. Communication was always super quick, she followed all the care instructions, and sent cute rover cards with lots of pictures. She even wrote a card and drew little pictures of our kitties, was very cute to come home to. We will definitely book Sarah to look after our kitties next time we go out of town!”

About: I’m an experienced pet lover with a deep passion for dogs! I’ve cared for four pups of different sizes and breeds, and I can’t wait to help yours feel loved and happy. Whether it's walking, playing, or feeding, I’m here to give your dog the best care. I love to run so Im also available to take your dog for a run. I’m available most evenings from 5 pm onwards due to my full-time job. I’m flexible and happy to work around your needs for a stress-free experience. When taking care of your pet at home, I ensure they’re safe, comfortable, and engaged. I follow your instructions closely, offering playtime, feeding, and attention.

“Sally is always quick to respond, professional, and treats my pup like her own. It’s a great feeling to find someone you can trust with your pet. I would 100 percent recommend to anyone looking for pet services.”

“Annie was fantastic - responsive and ensured Maeve was doing well while I was away. She even got her to come out of hiding daily - not something everyone has been able to do!”

About: I became a dog mom in 2026 to my handsome boy Dice and quickly got involved with the rescue I adopted him from. Since then, I’ve fostered 20+ dogs and even foster failed with Ace! I love dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities and have experience with shy, fearful, excitable, reactive, and easygoing dogs. I’ve also completed four levels of obedience training with my dogs. My own dogs have taught me a lot about meeting dogs where they are. Dice is a senior gentleman who loves leisurely walks filled with sniffing and marking. Ace is my four-year-old shy boy who was very shut down and scared of everything when I got him. Watching his confidence grow has been incredibly rewarding—and today he’s a total love bug! I genuinely enjoy getting to know each dog’s personality, learning their cues, and figuring out what makes them feel comfortable and happy. I’m available weekdays and have flexibility to tailor walks and visits to what your dog needs. Whether your pup wants a long walk, a run, a short potty break, or a leisurely sniff-and-explore adventure, I’m happy to follow their lead. I want walks to be enjoyable for your dog rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach. I’m doing Rover during a career transition because I can’t think of a better way to spend my weekdays than getting outside, getting some exercise, and hanging out with dogs! ❤️ Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’m comfortable working with reactive dogs and will follow your guidance on how to reinforce their training and manage their triggers. I’m also comfortable caring for dogs with special needs and will carefully follow any instructions, medications, routines, or other care requirements you provide. What you can expect from me: * 🐾 Plenty of attention, patience & affection * 🐾 Walks tailored to your dog’s needs and personality * 🐾 Respect for your dog’s routines and training * 🐾 A calm, thoughtful approach with nervous or reactive dogs * 🐾 Photos and updates after visits * 🐾 Someone who genuinely loves getting to know each dog After fostering 20+ dogs, I’ve learned that every dog communicates differently. I’ll take the time to understand your dog and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away.

“Jordan and Liz were great. I felt very comfortable that my animals were getting good care. Communication was perfect”

About: With a lifetime of caring for dogs of all shapes and personalities, I know how important trust is. I show up on time, follow routines closely, and treat every dog like they’re my own. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I’m an early riser, so morning walks before my workday are one of my favorite ways to start the day. I also keep my weekends flexible and am available for morning and afternoon walks. This consistency helps me provide dependable, stress-free care for both you and your pup. When caring for pets, I follow your routines closely and keep things calm and consistent. I double check doors, gates, and leashes, and I pay close attention to each dogs body language with experience from Chihuahuas to great Danes, I know how to keep every pup, safe, comfortable, and well cared for.

About: I am always happy to help out with my friends or neighborhood animals. I love all the cuddles and licks when I visit. I even help the lost ones that find their way to our door. I am self-employed and throughout the week go to meetings that can last 90 minutes. I am usually not gone any longer than a total of 6 hours. I am able to set my own schedule, so I can be flexible when housesitting. If I am boarding there is always an adult home to care for a pet. I like to walk, exercise, and play with pets. I go to local dog parks at least 2x/week with my own dogs. I also enjoy the snuggles pets are willing to give. I base my care off of what an owner likes and does, as well as what the pet is open to.

“Great with Otto. He had a family emergency and wasn't able to complete the drop-ins, but he was communicative about it, which I appreciate greatly.”

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: Hi! I’m Gabriela, a bilingual (English/Spanish) pet lover who believes every pet deserves patience, kindness, and individualized care. As a mental health professional, I’m naturally calm, reliable, and attentive to routines and behavior. I have over 3 years of hands-on experience caring for my own cat, Muffin, including giving oral medication, brushing his coat, cleaning his ears, using waterless grooming products, maintaining a clean litter box, and recognizing changes in his health or behavior. I’m also comfortable following feeding routines and providing photo updates during and/or after every visit. Whether your pet enjoys playtime, quiet companionship, or simply sticking to their daily routine, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I currently work part-time, which allows me to offer reliable drop-in visits during the afternoons, evenings, and weekends. I understand how important it is to keep pets on their regular routine, and I’ll always do my best to provide dependable, consistent care. I’ll communicate clearly and send photo updates during and/or after every visit so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I respect every home as if it were my own and carefully follow each pet parent’s instructions. I’ll make sure your pet has fresh food and water, a clean space, exercise or playtime if requested, and plenty of love and attention. I’m detail-oriented, dependable, and committed to keeping your pet safe, comfortable, and on their usual routine during every visit.

About: I’ve had dogs, cats, birds, small animals, reptiles, and fish my entire life. I’ve worked in several pet stores throughout my life, and I actually owned my own successful pet care service business for 10 years. All pets are welcome! I am a substitute teacher and I have a very flexible schedule, especially during the summer. I’m available for multiple visits a day and also longer visits if you like. I always like to do a meet and greet so I can meet the pet beforehand and familiarize myself with the routine. I try to stick to that routine as much as possible to avoid stress. If treats are ok, I like to come in and have a positive experience right away to gain trust. From there it depends on the pet! I try to bring a friendly but calm energy and hope they like me! (Or not, in the case of some pets)

“Caitlyn took great care of my senior cat while I was out of town. She provided detailed updates and followed all care instructions. Would highly recommend!”

“Ben was great at taking care of our cat Boo. He was diligent in stopping by, spent some extra time with her since she was feeling lonely, gave great detailed updates, and was kind enough to bring in our mail. Would definitely request him again and recommend him to anyone!”

“Brittany was great, fast responder and sent us some photos of our girl on her drop-ins. Would use her again in the future!”

“Our first experience with Rover was fantastic, thanks to Abby! She was immediately responsive and above-and-beyond helpful in providing drop-in care for our (very rambunctious!) dogs every day for a week. …and even during terrible weather. I won’t hesitate to work with Abby again in the future. Two thumbs (and eight paws) up!!”

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!

“Isabelle took great care of my three kitties while I was out of town for 10 days.”
