About: I’m a passionate (professionally trained) dog trainer with over four years of experience at one of the currently top rated and award winning doggie day cares, boarding and training facility in the metro area! My passion has taken me through professional boarding facilities and various sized playrooms, where I’ve learned the ins and outs of doggy behavior from playful pups, ones that are a little more on the spicy side, to the more reserved ones. what I truly love is helping pups thrive. I have been trained to use various tools if needed for your pup such as properly fitting a harness, a prong collar, and more. I will happily collaborate with you to create a perfect care plan including enrichment, walks, play time, brain games and structure. I have been successfully training dogs for 11 years with the past 4 being in a professional setting. I’m all about clarity, transparency and open communication. My current position at my full time job is the lead trainer and manager of a smaller group daycare for reactive pups of various degrees and pups that need structure. I’m fine with behavioral issues such as resource guarding, reactivity ect as long as it’s disclosed first. I also have a senior GSD at home so I know how to provide compassionate care for our sugar faced friends! I’m always open for questions or comments and I send LOTS of pictures! I require a meet and greet before booking any services (unless it’s a last minute drop in or dog walk) I work full time as a dog trainer but I always make time to train and work my own dogs as well as being able to care for others pets. We can discuss your ideal schedule and figure out together the perfect plan. I’m available most evenings and weekends. I have a fully fenced yard, long lines and a couple favorite parks! I will always be transparent with pet parents about expectations with their pets. What I would do with a senior pup is different than a young dog. I’m happy to provide my companionship and love for dogs who would rather snuggle and just be around people or play lots of fetch and do lots of brain games for dogs who need that. Usually it’s a mix between the two, some play, lots of love.
“Kristen is INCREDIBLE with both our cat and dog! It’s rare to find a sitter that works so well with both so we always feel so lucky when we’re able to book Kristen as our sitter.”
“Elizabeth is great! She’s so friendly and was excellent with our 5 month old puppy. She’s prompt, respectful, and very dedicated to what she does. Highly recommend her for your next Rover.”
“Taylor was great with our cats! Booked last second and Taylor was more than accommodating to get us fit in, on a holiday week no less! Would use again. Thanks”
About: I have taken care of my family pets since I was little. In high school I took care of neighbor’s dogs and others who needed the extra hand in taking dogs for walks and making sure they had food, water, and were happy. I have a full time job and usually work 8 hours during the day Sunday-Thursday. I am available in the mornings and evenings during those days, Friday afternoons, and all day Saturdays. While taking care of clients pets, I will make sure they have plenty of water, food, exercise, and all instructions the owners leave are followed. I care for all animal's health and well-being and will go out of my way to make sure they are taken care of how their owners would want them and how I would take care of my own pets.
“Caroline did an excellent job taken care of my cats, she followed my instructions perfectly, and gave me daily updates, and even checked in with me after I got home. I will definitely rehire her as I know my cats are in good care.”
About: Hello👋🏽I’m a passionate dog lover and pet stylist at a doggie daycare, with 6+ years of experience leading playgroups and 3 years as a professional groomer. I’ve developed a deep understanding of dog behavior, body language, and individual needs.🐾 I currently have the sweetest babies, a 12 year old lab and 2 laid back cats. I grew up caring for our rescued beagles from an animal testing facility, which taught me how to support sensitive or nervous pups with patience and compassion. Through daycare and grooming, I’ve worked hands-on with all kinds of breeds, coat types, and personalities. I can’t wait to meet your furry friend and help them feel safe, happy, and loved! I also offer nail trims if your pup is comfortable with it.✂️ I also enjoy cleaning in my spare time, so I’d be happy to offer light housekeeping or general tidying if that’s something you’d find helpful.🫧 Pet care fits into my routine really naturally. I work as a groomer and often have shorter days starting at 8am, usually finishing around 2 or 3 PM, which gives me plenty of flexibility for pet sitting in the evenings. I’m also available most weekends for drop-ins and walks. I typically pet sit in the owner’s home, where pets feel most comfortable and secure. I always follow the owner’s instructions closely—every pet is different, and I do my best to stick to their usual routine, whether that’s feeding times, walks, play, medications, or just extra snuggles. I’m respectful of your home and treat it with care, just like I do with your pets!
“Maia took wonderful care of our cat, Princess Leia, while we were out of town for four days. She was an excellent communicator, keeping us updated and giving us peace of mind that everything was going smoothly. When we returned home, both our house and our cat were clearly well cared for. Princess Leia was happy to see us, but she also seemed calm, relaxed, and content, which is always the best sign that she's been in good hands. Maia's drop-in visits gave us confidence that our cat was getting the attention and care she needed while we were away. We would absolutely trust Maia with our home and pets again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and caring pet sitter.”
“Kristin was wonderful and made it very clear that she cared about our kitty and his wellbeing! He is on medication right now and doesn’t cooperate very well, but she was able to get it in him :) would definitely recommend booking her. Thank you, Kristin!!”
About: I have been a dog / cat sitter for my friends, family and neighbors since I was 13. My family had both dogs and cats in the house when I was growing up. I love spending time with animals and getting to know their unique personalities. I especially enjoy taking dogs for walks and playing with them outside to help expend their energy. I currently work from home in a corporate position. I have plenty of free time and would love to spend some of it taking care of animals. Typically, I am staying over at the client’s home for the duration of their trip / vacation. The client will often have me over to their home prior to their departure to meet the animal(s) and go over their needs and any other special requests they may have. It is very important to me that the client feels safe entrusting me to stay in their home and take care of their pets.
About: My wife and I have had paws in our house almost from day 1. Over the years we have had 6 dogs and 7 cats, all of which came on board as puppies or kittens, and they all lived long and happy lives. Currently we have 1 dog and 2 cats. I am now retired, so I have maximum flexibility to schedule sitting/walking times. The biggest competitors for my time are the grandkids, and the lawnmower in the summer and snow shovel in the winter. Our cats are indoor cats with access to a screen porch to satisfy their outdoor desires. We have used the Invisible Fence for our previous larger dogs. The client would set the requirements for care at the pet's home. I also have walking shoes and a leash for doggie exercise. I have not signed up to care for client's animals at our house.
About: I have loved animals since I was a child and grew up learning how to care for them. I am kind, patient, responsible, and attentive to their needs. I enjoy spending time with animals, feeding them, playing with them, going for walks, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable. I will care for your pet with love and attention as if they were my own I am available every evening, on weekends, and overnight. My schedule allows me to be flexible, and I can provide plenty of time and attention to your pets. I am happy to help with walks, feeding, playtime, check-ins, and overnight care I always follow the pet owner’s instructions and routine. I make sure pets are safe, comfortable, fed on time, and get enough attention and exercise. I respect my client’s home and treat every pet with patience, kindness, and care
“We are so grateful to Heidi for all her care and attention she gave to our two kitties while we were away. Being the first time we had left them for a long period of time it was nice to get many daily photos and updates to know they were well cared for while we were gone. We would not hesitate to reach out to Heidi in the future!”
About: We have had dogs our entire lives, and currently have two adorable shih tzus. We have had Cuddle for 15 years and Peanut for 8. We would have five more dogs if we could. We have been fostering for Underdog Rescue for the past seven years and have experience with both little puppies and senior citizen pups. We have a house in the Minnetonka/Hopkins area and have a large fenced in backyard that your dog would enjoy! We always hate being away from our dogs, so we know how important their care is while you're away! I currently work from home, so I’ll be able to give your pups plenty of attention throughout the day with plenty of potty breaks and playtime in the backyard yard. We have a large, fenced-in backyard and currently have three small dogs, two senior Shih Tzus and a 1 year old Pekingese. We also foster dogs through Underdog Rescue, and two of our dogs are foster fails! 🐶
“Rola did a fantastic job with our two dogs during her drop-in visit. She was on time, friendly, and made sure both pups were cared for and happy. I I appreciated her attention to detail and the updates she provided. I’d definitely recommend her to anyone looking for reliable and thoughtful pet care!”

Elizabeth took excellent care of our 4 kitties while we were away! Communication was extremely easy. One of our cats has an allergy to fish and she had no problems keeping him away from the other cat's food. I could tell from the photos they had a great time playing and zooming around after meal times! I will definitely rebook with Elizabeth!
We have already had Tricia back to care for our cats! I forgot to mention in my previous review, she has a green thumb, our outdoor plants were healthy and happy upon our return. She also made sure that the cats had fresh water, in multiple locations! She is the BEST!
Rachel was amazing with our dog and two cats. You can tell right away how much she truly cares about animals. Our dog got all the exercise and attention she needs, and our cats were happy and relaxed. Rachel was great about checking in and sending photos, which we really appreciated — it made being away so much easier. We felt totally comfortable knowing our pets were in such good hands. They all love her, and we would absolutely book with her again.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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 Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
