“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 :)”
“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”
“Kira was a great communicator and sent photos throughout the day. I liked knowing that Bandit had some dog friends but also got more person attention than at a big daycare. He came home tired!”
“Howie was absolutely AMAZING! I had a last minute trip and it was my first time in about 10 years using rover and he made it extremely easy and worked with me on changing times and worked with my roommate as well, much appreciated! Howie treated my dog so good and even from the initial meeting they bonded very quickly! Thank you so much Howie, me and Grampaw will be using your services in the future :)”
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.
“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”
“First doggie sitter for our Harper and did we score big time!! Alyson is amazing. Harper came home happy and tired. It must have been a great time!! Thanks Alyson.”
“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.”
“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.”
“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.”
“Joe was amazing! My dog, Chocolate Chip, loved him and his sweet dog Henry. Joe gave me so many great tips as a first-time dog owner and was incredibly accommodating with my work schedule. I felt completely at ease knowing Chip was in such good hands. We will definitely be booking with Joe again soon!”
“Kaitlin is AMAZING!! Since I’ve been on Rover, I’ve had 2 amazing sitters and Kaitlin is one of them… she has made my Luna feel at home. My Luna loves her dogs as well and one thing for sure is that when I get my girl gets home she’s all tired out lol. Kaitlin keeps me updated at all times with pictures and text messages. I hope our relationship is forever. Thanks Kaitlin”

About: Experienced professional dog trainer specializing in reactive behavior. Grew up around many pets. As an adult worked at an animal shelter where I fell in love with the misunderstood dogs who ended up there. Went on to train and care for dogs at a couple different boarding/daycare facilities, trained dogs at Petsmart for time, and finally graduated to working with reactive (aggressive) dogs at a training/boarding facility. Stepped away from this profession to work on other aspects of my life, and am now looking to lend a helping hand to those who may need it. I’m at home and available most weekdays and weekends. My main priority in life right now is caring for my dog Mushu, who is mildly active and great with other dogs. 6 months ago we lost his brother, Pagoda, so we’ve been missing having another dog around for walks and outings, as well as just hanging out at home. My schedule mostly wide open these days. I have a lot of experience earning trust and familiarity with hesitant or selective dogs. My knowledge of dog body language gives me insight as to what your dog may be trying to communicate and what their personal boundaries are. Currently at home I have a single Chinese Shar Pei named Mushu who gets along great with other dogs, but is naturally weary of strangers. Because of my experience with guarding breeds, I’ve learned how to not appear threatening and allow time for dogs to confirm I’m safe to be around. I’m familiar with kenneling up dogs, putting on different types of collars, giving meds, giving injections, specific feeding requirements, etc. Because of my job history I’ve become an expert in avoiding possible mishaps (escaping, biting, choking, overheating, etc.) I’ve worked with and cared for dogs of all ages, sizes, and breeds. Cats, fish, and reptiles have also been a part of my life since childhood so I’m familiar with their care as well.
About: I’ve taken care of many different pets my whole life, I grew up with many different pets in my family. I currently have a well trained pet of my own, my friends and family come to me when they are in need of a sitter. I’m currently a part time college student, so I only go to class on Tuesday and Thursday mornings, with my remaining time out of school, I have plenty of time to play and hangout with pets! I do not have a fully fenced yard but I do have a gated area on the side of my house. The gated area is big enough for dogs to run and play! I also have a small dog of my own to keep other dogs entertained!
“My dog Louie had the best day at Emily’s!! Emily works from home and keeps Louie active during the day. He loved playing with her dogs and the long walk he got! Louie will definitely be back!!”
About: My beloved rescue pup has just turned sweet 16 in January 2026, and we have been together for a decade. Prior experience includes dog sitting for 9 years for doodles and various breeds. My dog loves relaxing days with new friends. Pet care is my daily routine because my dog is the most important part of my life. I am available every day because I work and play from home. I live on the first floor of a dog friendly apartment with a secure balcony equipped for quick potty breaks with a view. We are located next to a greenway for fun walking adventures. Since I am a homebody, I am always here to make sure your dog is safe, having a great day with new friends, and getting lots of cuddles.
About: I've fostered all kinds of dogs since high school - from senior couch potatoes, to high-drive working breeds, to shy puppies. I raised my German shorthair Togo since he was nine weeks old, and I also help take care of my partner's 10-year-old dog who takes daily medication. I love getting to know a dog's unique needs and personality. I work from home part-time as a translator and writer, so I have a lot of flexibility to tailor my schedule to your dog's needs. My daily schedule involves doing enrichment and exercise activities with my own dog throughout the day (sniffaris, training sessions, running, games, etc.), and I'd plan on doing the same with your dog too. I have a fenced-in yard and a very playful (but kind and respectful) host dog who would love to give your dog company. I might go out for up to two hours at a time to run errands or work from a coffee shop, but otherwise I'll be around.
Near North dog parents share their Rover experiences
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!
Izsabella and he dog Willie took such a great care of Ted on multiple occasions. Izsabella is very responsive and respectful. She always checks in and updates me. Her cute videos with Ted make me want to change my job and work remotely too so I can host play dates for my dog.
Thanks for being soooo welcoming, sweet and caring with my dog. It’s nice to hear how you chilled together in your office and she romped around in your fenced yard. I appreciate your communication over text, the pics and feeling like you really liked seeing her again. I appreciate that you had a gate to separate her and your dog or that you kept mine with you. I’ll book you again.
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.
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! ❤️
