“Emma was amazing. Very communicative, kind, and loving with our two cats. It was such a gift to have her watch our girls and gave me the peace of mind I needed to truly enjoy our vacation. I am so grateful for her!”
“The level of detail that Regina provided with each visit is the quality of care that I’ve been looking for in a cat sitter for years!!! Finally, I can fully enjoy my time away knowing my cats are well cared for! The app worked flawlessly! I received an alert at the beginning and end of each visit. Regina was extremely attentive and provided detailed information and photos of both cats after each visit. So grateful to have found Regina! Will definitely use her again! Highly recommend!”
About: I've taken care of animals my whole life, had animals my whole life, & love them all! From indoor pups to cattle dogs, they always love when I'm around!:) Im working part time, so have a ton of time to cuddle your pups! I can't wait to walk with them & enjoy what the rest of summer has to offer. I will not be bringing your animal into my house, I will travel to wherever you & your animal are to care & love on them!
About: Savannah here! I have three dogs and an orange kitty. I’ve been around animals my entire life and absolutely love getting to know each pet’s unique personality. I have experience caring for senior dogs and pets that may need a little extra patience, attention, and love. I’ve also been around dog breeding for 10+ years, which has given me experience with dogs of all ages and personalities. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers a slower pace, I’m happy to provide care that fits their needs! My services include: •30 minute dog walks include a fun stroll around your neighborhood to help your pup get fresh air, exercise, and a little adventure during the day. •30 minute drop-ins include potty breaks, feeding, playtime, and of course plenty of love to make sure your pet is comfortable while you're gone. You can book up to three drop-ins per day! Every pet is different, so I’m always happy to accommodate extra needs or customize visits to fit your pet’s routine. My availability is flexible, feel free to reach out with your preferred dates and times! • I always offer a (free) 10-minute meet-and-greet before any drop-in or walking service. This gives us a chance to meet, helps your pet get familiar with me, and lets us go over their routine and any other needs. Meet-and-greets are not required to book with me, they are simply available if you’d like a little extra comfort and peace of mind before our first visit!
“I'm so grateful to have met Katharine. She took great care of our dogs, and her attention to detail is fantastic. I am glad to have a trustworthy, competent person caring for our pets in our home. She will be our "go-to" for all of our pet-sitting needs! Highly recommend.”
About: Hello! I'm Tina. I live in Waconia, and I'm looking to care for your dogs, for walks, quiet snuggles, or just a good run around the back yard. Will house/pet sit as well. I've had 3 dogs in my life, and 20+ years of playtime, laughs, and bonding with my "kids" as I call them. I currently have a 15 year old shih tzu/mix who is my baby. In the past, I've taken care of one of my dogs, who had many health issues, so I'm experienced with senior or special needs animals. I've administered meds (pills), spent many days at the vet, and am very sensitive to ill animals and senior animals who just want to rest or have low key play. I have experience with puppies as well who are looking to just have fun! I'm very responsible and dedicated to my animals, and would be the same with yours. Give me a try! =) Right now my schedule is open availability, so I'll have plenty of time to devote to your animal and their needs. I have availability on weekends as well, but that can change by the week. I have an unfenced yard and one senior little ole lady shih tzu who is extremely low maintenance and very sweet. She has free range of the house, but I do crate her when I'm away from home for periods of time.
“Mackenzie is the best pet sitter EVER!! Our cats absolutely love her. She takes fantastic care of them while we’re away. 100% trustworthy…we know the kids will be well taken care of by Mackenzie.”
“Kayden was fantastic! She was reliable, communicative, and took such great care of Jax while we were away. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was getting lots of love and attention, and she always made sure he was doing well. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with Kayden again. Highly recommend!”
“Dawn is such a great sitter! She is extremely knowledgeable about animals and very caring. She was also really flexible when we had to change our plans. She did a great job caring for our elderly cat. Thank you Dawn!”
“Dayjah took great care of our two kitties while we were on vacation! One of our cats has recently started requiring a daily supplement, so we were a little nervous leaving them for a whole week. Both cats were very happy and well cared for when we returned! They're pretty shy, but warmed right up to Dayjah. We loved the daily updates and photos, and they gave us peace of mind while we were gone.”
“From the minute I met Sydney I knew she was going to be a trust worthy gal to take care of my granny cat. Sydney has been so kind,punctual , sent pictures, videos and updates every visit, even spend some extra off the clock time to pet my cat finish her nap on Sydney’s lap. I would recommend Sydney to anyone looking for a a sitter for their pet .”
“Ashley is awesome! My husband and I are very thankful for her coming over and checking on our fur babies. Thank you for helping us with the transition and being there for our babies. 😁”
“Lindsey and her girls did an amazing job taking care of our dog, Koda. They gave him lots of snuggles and love while we were gone. They even left us some cute artwork with a nice note. We will definitely book drop in visits with them again in the future”
About: I have hands-on experience caring for dogs through both personal ownership and years of helping friends and family with their pets. I am a dog owner myself, so I understand the importance of routine, patience, and individualized care. Over the years, I’ve regularly watched friends’ dogs, providing house sitting, drop-in visits, walks, feeding, playtime, and companionship. I’m comfortable managing multiple dogs, maintaining schedules, and making sure pets feel safe, happy, and loved while their owners are away. I treat every pet as if they were my own and prioritize clear communication with owners for peace of mind. I’m a part-time student with a flexible schedule, so I have plenty of time to dedicate to pet care. I’m available for drop-ins, walks, playtime, and house sitting, and I prioritize sticking to your pet’s normal routine. I care for pets in their own home by following their usual routine for feeding, walks, playtime, and potty breaks. I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away, and I provide regular updates and photos for peace of mind.
“I booked Kimberly for two drop in visits while we were away for a night. She took the time to meet our dog prior to booking day, very friendly. I appreciated the picture/video updates! Will book again!”
“Sarah is the best pet sitter and will take great care of your fur babies! I use her regularly to take care of my senior cat with heart disease who requires medication twice a day, and I always know he’s in great hands!”

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 5,405 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Minnetrista. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Minnetrista stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Minnetrista. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
