“Amanda is so great about spending time with Minnie and posting plenty of pictures and updates about how she’s doing. A highlight when we’re gone to get an update on the cat.”
About: Hi! I’m Jessica, and I’ve been caring for animals since I was young. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, so I take the time to get to know each one and help them feel comfortable while you’re away. I currently work part-time from home, which gives me the flexibility to provide frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, and plenty of one-on-one attention. Whether your dog enjoys an active day or prefers to relax and cuddle, I’ll do my best to match their routine and make them feel at home. I live in an apartment with easy access to walking paths and green spaces. My goal is to provide a safe, calm, and loving environment where your pet feels comfortable and you can enjoy peace of mind. I’ll also send regular photo and video updates so you can see how your pet is doing throughout their stay.
About: I’ve spent a lot of time with dogs. I have helped train and care for my 5-year-old dog since she was a puppy. I love all types of dogs, along with small animals (I have two guinea pigs!) I currently have a flexible weekday schedule, happy to spend time with your pups any time during the day! Weekends can be trickier, but I can work it out with more advance I will follow your personalized instructions for your pet! I am comfortable crating, feeding, playing, and taking dogs on walks or outside. If your dog has special needs, I am very willing to accommodate!
“I booked Sean for 3 visits with my cats, and everything was great! He’s communicative and thoughtful. My cats don’t seem phased at all that we were gone, so it’s comforting to know they got enough attention and were well cared for. I will happily book with Sean again.”
“Busy work schedules have made the days very long for our dog Ziggy, Lindsey has been a tremendous help to get him out for a potty break and quick walk or play time. He has been much happier vs spending long days in the kennel. Lindsey is our HERO!”
About: ✨️🐶 Please read my profile in full (including availability and pricing sections) before reaching out with a service request 🌈🌥🐈⬛ I have always loved and cared about the welfare of animals ever since I can remember, and even had several different pets of my own growing up that I cared for, including a couple of dogs (one of which lived to be 17 years old!). I have past experience with volunteering at organisations such as the SPCA (providing care for cats, dogs, and rabbits) and caring for cats at AniMall Cat Clinic. I have helped several close ones and neighbours thoroughout the years with pet care needs for their dogs and cats, which included: feeding, walking, providing transportation to veterinary appointments, bathing, basic grooming, and just spending quality time with the pets. Some of my specialised experience includes caring for pets with mobility issues, breeds that are reactive to other dogs (but still love the company of humans), breeds that are often subject to housing or insurance restrictions (some of which have included: Pit Bulls, German Shepherds, Rottweiler mixes, Belgian Malinois, Huskies, Dobermans, Staffordshire Terriers, Malamutes, and American Bullies), and experience in administering medication to both dogs and cats in oral, injectable, and topical forms. 🐾 Please note I work M-F full time (excluding major holidays), and am unable to provide midday breaks when working due to the nature of my work. For bookings that fall on weekdays, I am not able to reliably accomodate pets that require someone to be home with them throughout the day or need frequent potty breaks. I can best accommodate pets whose daytime care needs would be covered while I'm at work (such as through a doggy door or litter box, neighbour check ins, or if pets need less frequent bathroom breaks) . 🌟I am open to discussing alternatives as well such as taking your pet to doggy day care while I work. However, transportation will incur an extra fee in addition to the booking that varies depending on distance and time requirements. For walks and drop ins in particular, I would be a great choice for pet parents that need care in evenings, nights, and weekends. I focus on understanding each dog's individual temperament, communication style, and needs. I will listen to/observe your pet's body language and demeanour before approaching, and will always interact with them gently and kindly. On walks, I always use a leash or harness to keep the pet safe. Furthermore, I always strive to keep an eye out for any potential hazards to pets while they are in my care and will always act swiftly to remove said hazard so your pet will be out of harm's way. I do believe too that good pet care includes planning for the unexpected, so I like to establish emergency contacts, veterinary/animal hospital information, and contingency plans with every client before a stay (and preferably have these included in written directions too).
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with a bachelor’s degree in Environmental Science and currently work as a veterinary assistant! I’m building a career working with animals and have experience caring for pets of all sizes and personalities. I’m responsible, patient, and attentive to each pet’s individual needs, and I treat every animal with the same love and care I would give my own. I have a full time schedule from 9am- 6pm M-F, but I would enjoy an early morning or an evening walk/ drop in visit! I’m committed to being dependable, and I’ll do my best to accommodate your pet’s routine! Your pet’s safety and happiness are always my top priorities. I’ll carefully follow your instructions, and follow your pets normal routine! I treat every home with respect and every pet like they’re my own. I can also send photos to keep you updated and less stressed!
About: I’ve provided pet sitting and care for multiple dogs, and cats including feeding, walking, and maintaining routines for friends, family and even people around my neighborhood. I’ve loved animals since childhood, and even had my own lab for 16 years who I loved to the moon and back but sadly passed away late 2024. I know older animals require a certain level of attention and care. I love staying active, and high energy animals and I get along great! I do not mind larger animals. I have consistent availability on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, with additional flexible availability throughout the week depending on my schedule. I’m great with planning ahead and keeping a reliable routine with my clients! I provide attentive, personalized care based on each pet’s routine and needs. I maintain feeding schedules, regular walks, and plenty of attention to keep them happy and stress-free. In clients’ homes, I make sure to follow all care instructions closely, including feeding, walking, playtime, and any specific routines your pet is used to. I always aim to keep their environment calm, consistent, and familiar. I also provide updates and photos for peace of mind while you’re away.
About: Hi! I’m Cheyenne, and I’d love the opportunity to care for your pets while you’re away. I’ve spent several years working in veterinary medicine, where I’ve cared for animals of all ages, breeds, and personalities. My experience has taught me how to recognize changes in behavior, administer medications when needed, and help pets feel comfortable and safe, even in unfamiliar situations. Pet care naturally fits into my weekly routine because caring for animals is already what I do every day. I work full-time in veterinary medicine, so my schedule revolves around the health and well-being of pets. Through Rover, I’m excited to spend even more time doing what I love by providing personalized care outside of the clinic. I’m available for visits on select workdays, especially before or after my shifts, and I have much greater flexibility on my days off. I’m available for visits on select workdays, especially before or after my shifts, and I have much greater flexibility on my days off for walks, drop-in visits, and extended care. I understand how important consistency is for pets, and I do my best to provide reliable, compassionate care that fits seamlessly into their routine while giving you peace of mind.
About: I’ve had dogs & cats my entire life and never met a pup or kitty I didn’t love! I love to connect with new animals, get to know them & shower them with love & attention. Happy to take animals for walks, take them outside, play with them, replenish food and water, clean the litter box - just let me know what you need. I can schedule dog-walking, or drop-ins for your dog or cat each week depending on what I have going on that week. Message me and I’ll get back to you ASAP! I will take the greatest care to ensure your pet is well-cared for and instructions are followed, whether that involves making sure gates are locked, ensuring leash is on well, locking up, specific feeding instructions, etc.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Mounds View choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
