“Kyle was always prompt for visits to give my cat his medications. He provided great updates regarding how administration went, was patient with my cat, and was respectful to my house! Cannot recommend him enough!”


About: Since 2020, I've been providing dependable dog walking and in-home pet care for families in the Inver Grove Heights, West St. Paul, and South St. Paul areas. As a proud British Lab owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for your pets the way you would. In addition to dog walks, I provide drop-in visits for dogs, cats, and guinea pigs. Whether it's feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, administering simple care routines, playtime, litter box or cage maintenance, or simply spending quality time with your pet, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. My Yard: 5 ft privacy fence entirely enclosing the yard and deck. My Pet: 65lb spayed female British lab who is passive and needs a meet & Greet before we accept Boarding Crating? I follow your routine so if you want them crated, I will do that (some parents teach dogs to be crated at night). I would only ever use it other than your specific direction if I were to leave the house to store, etc. Dog won't be alone long - I am home during days. My family: 2 adults, 1 teen, 1 kid in house. Scope us out! Come visit with your pup for a meet & greet! Boarding: Occasionally I do accept dogs to board in our home. The dog needs to meet & Greet our dog first (she is calm, passive spayed). I only accept dogs to boardthat are up to date on vaccinations. We have kids and stuff (socks, toys) lays out...if your dog will ingest socks or "eat" things laying out, this isn't a good Boarding match. I believe every pet has a unique personality and deserves individualized care, patience, and affection. My goal is to give you peace of mind while you're away, knowing your pets are safe, loved, and receiving the attention they deserve. I am flexible during weekdays, mostly for check ins, potty breaks and feeding. In evening and weekends I am open for walks, check ins and feedings. I follow your Pet's routine as you detail it! Walks I require a leash. I send you updates and photos from walks or check ins. My House & Yard: Occasionally, we accept dogs for boarding. That is only if we do a Meet & Greet first, and determine our dog (9 yr old, calm and passive British lab, spayed) is a match. We would only boarding a dog in our home that is up to date on vaccinations
“Kelly did a great job taking care of our two cats Neeko and SooSoo. She even took time to play and bond with them and sent pics every visit. We knew they were in good hands and will gladly book Kelly again next time. Thanks Kelly!”

“Did an amazing job! We had to find somebody at the last minute and she was more than willing to come and help us out! We would hire her again in a heartbeat and look forward to working with her again in the future. She played with our pets every single day and included all the extras. We could not have been more pleased and our superb bashful pets absolutely loved her! Thank you Megan for all that you did for us!! We apologize for the delay in her deserved review. We have added a new furry addition to the family that she will be visiting sometime in the future . Mike and Melissa.”

“Allene was amazing to work with! My normally-skittish kitty just loved her and she went the extra mile to hunt for my younger cat, who decided to find new hiding spots that I didn’t even know about! I will definitely be booking Allene again in the future!”

“Dakota appears to have checked all boxes requested! Cats are older and pretty inactive, but i see no problems at all. Communication was steady and reliable. Thanks Dakota! Planning on using her in the very near future if she is available.”

About: I love all animals and owning dogs, a cat and a rabbit myself, working professionally as a kennel hand and trainer, and caring for some other fuzzy friends during my day-to-day makes me a great choice for most of your doggie day (or evening!) care. I spend lots of time at our local dog park and our own back yard exercising my pups. I have experience professionally training working and hunting dogs, and taking care of puppies and elderly dogs. The main thing I hope to achieve with your dog is to have some fun, get myself some extra exercise and hopefully be a good companion for your dog while you’re away If you have any further questions or want references, feel free to message me, thank you! I work a full time job remotely, so I often have free time during the week and during the evenings, especially for house/pet sitting in other’s homes. I like to fill that time with Rover I will be hanging out with your furry friends and try to follow their cues as far as plans go! I do know CPR for dogs and am familiar with injection and other medication administration for both dogs and cats. Any special instructions on how you care for your pets will be followed. Thunderstorm, anxiety, and firework situations are also understandable and can be accommodated. I will comfort them as best as l can! *CONSTANT CARE RATES IE: IF YOUR PET CANNOT BE LEFT ALONE FOR ANY PERIOD OF TIME EXCLUDING ANY WALKS, PLEASE INFORM ME PRIOR TO BOOKING/CONFIRMATION
About: I love animals, I'm the type of person who gets distracted by the dog on the street and I want to go to your house if you have a cat. For those of you from the 90's, if I could be like Ace Ventura the pet detective and fill my whole home and life with animals, I would. Clearly this isn’t the 90's and my apartment wouldn’t be able to house all the animals happily and comfortably of my dreams, so there comes rover, my opportunity to spend the time I want with all the animals of my dreams. Jokes aside , I have a background in social services and caring for others is in my nature, I've decided to go back to school in my mid 30's. I’m focusing on school so I’m no longer working my full time job, so I have plenty of time on my hands to provide lots of love and care to your loved ones. I grew up with 4 cats and as adult I have always had cats. I haven’t had the opportunity to have dogs of my own due to living in apartments or the preferences of my very particular feline friends, but I absolutely adore dogs and all animals. I grew up with family members and friends with dogs and I often will volunteer to pick my grandparents dog up for walks, just because. I have ample experience with temperamental cats, see my profile for paisley, my beauty queen of a kitty. I also have a lot of experience with medical needs and chronic illnesses for kitties, per my two kitties at home, see Jinx as well. I also have experience administering medications etc to other peoples pets as well. Friends and family ask me to watch their pets because they know how attentive and loving I am with animals. Animals are my passion. Fun Fact:I’m known to help rescue homeless kitties or wild life, keep dog treats and cat food in my trunk for kitties in need or dogs who need a snack <3. I love small critters to large live stock. You could say I’m a fan of the animal kingdom, no doubt. My availability is quite flexible at this time, per the fact that I'm going back to school ad not working full time. I’m happy to work with pet owners to accommodate their scheduling needs, as I have a lot of open time in in my schedule. I'm currently not taking sleep overs but potentially would be open to after a relationship is established and it’s a right fit for both parties. but I'm happy to check on your pet before bed and in the morning. While at your home, I'm a guest. I will respect your home via your guidance, directions and handle your home and animal loved ones with attentive care and discretion.
“I really appreciated how thorough Allison was in her communication with us prior to the drop-in visit and also the note that she provided afterwards. I will definitely be booking with her again.”

“Rachel did a great job housesitting for our two kitties who are a bit demanding. She took care of our mail, trash, packages, and other people coming and going from our home while we were gone. Highly recommend hiring her if you want peace of mind while on your vacation. Will use her again for upcoming trips.”

“Abigail was wonderful with my boys, and very communicative each time she dropped in to care for them. It was a holiday week so I was very happy to have gotten her booked.”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 8 years and love getting to know each one I meet! My goal is to make sure your dog is happy and well cared for while you’re away. I am currently working part-time, so I have plenty of flexibility to care for your furry friends! I’m most available Mondays, Fridays, and weekends, and I’m also available for morning and evening visits Tuesday through Thursday! It is important to me to follow all feeding, medication, exercise, and care instructions you provide.

I know it's my third review for Ron, but I have to do it! We just came back from a 13 day trip and he visited our cat twice a day to give her pets, love, playtime, meds and more. Great communication, even better pictures. She's very calm after a long time away from us and I know it's because of the attention Ron pays to her when we aren't here!

Vicki is the best; I think this was her 5th time taking care of our two cats and they really love her visiting them. She makes sure they have everything they need, including pets and play time. This time our shyer cat was demanding pets on day one which is a big deal! 🥰 Thanks for taking such good care of our boys, Vicki!

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.

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 .
