About: Hi there! My name is Grace M and I'm a current educator who is available for weekend services OR weekday services, as long as they do not interfere with school hours (7am-4pm) I had a dog for 15 years of my life! Once I was old enough I was able to care for him when my parents were away and whenever I was home. Unfortunately, he passed now, but I went on to adopt two cats who I love very much - one is 7 and one is 4. I've done walks, I've stayed overnight, I've checked in at homes, I do what I can to make sure animals are taken care of in the most efficient way possible! I will make sure your pets enjoy the time that I am with them and I will make sure that you can put them into care that you can trust! As a teacher, I am unavailable during the work week between the hours of 7am to 4pm. I can do any walks or drop ins after those hours. Otherwise, I am free on the weekends, which includes Friday evenings! I have enough toys, trees, and scratchers to make sure my kitties stay entertained and happy. Scheduled feeding and clean litter boxes to make sure everyone stays healthy :)
About: I treat my 2 dogs like children. Spoiled rotten. I enjoy animals more than I enjoy humans. Sorry, not sorry. My special skill is love lol I'm a travel nurse, working in different towns. Need more activities to do on my days off. I usually will have 3 days off. I have my dog with me and know how important he is. He is home. I prefer to go to the clients home and check on your dog and let him to go potty and or go on a walk.
About: I grew up with all sorts of pets, there’s never been a day in my life where I haven’t been near an animal! Not only can I care for your dogs or cats, but I can also care for any other pet that you may have. I know how to adjust to their personalities and care for them in ways that they need. I currently work at a school, which allows me to be fully available during the summer months, as well as on select weekdays after school hours. I will be available after school from 3:30pm to 5:30pm on Tuesday-Thursday. During the summer I am available Tuesday-Thursday 8:00am-5:00pm. While working at a school, I’ve developed patience, strong organizational skills, and a commitment to consistent routines—qualities I apply to every pet I care for. I strive to make your pet comfortable and happy in their home. When coming to your home, I respect your guidelines and boundaries; I will stick to your feeding instructions, walking schedule, any behavioral cues or commands your pet knows; and frequent communication regarding your pet.
About: Hi there, I'm Liz! I'm excited for the opportunity to meet and care for your pet. I grew up on a farm in northern Minnesota, where my family raised beef cattle, sheep, chickens, and horses. Animals are and always have been a huge part of my life. I now live in Mankato with my Mini Goldendoodle, Winston, and I was a high school Agriculture teacher. I take the responsibility of caring for animals seriously. In college I took a variety of animal science classes covering small and large animal care and handling, nutrition, and vet science. I started this service because of Winston. When I worked 10-hour days, I couldn't justify leaving him home alone that long. A friend who worked from home offered to take him for the day, and it was worth every penny, for my peace of mind and for his health and well-being. That's the care I wanted for my own pup, and now I can offer it to yours. With winter coming, I know how hard it is to get outside when it's dark and freezing. I make sure Winston gets plenty of exercise all winter long, and I'd love to do the same for your dog. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, day sitting, and boarding. Please feel free to reach out about any of them. I look forward to working with you and your pets! Pet care is already part of my daily routine. I have my own pup, Winston, so walks, playtime, and exercise are built into my day, and caring for other dogs fits right in! I grew up on a farm, so animals have always been part of my life. I'm reliable and flexible, and I make sure every dog gets plenty of exercise and attention, even through Minnesota winters. Your dog's safety comes first. I follow your routines for feeding, medications, and walks, and I keep dogs on a leash and under close watch whenever we're outside. I grew up around animals and studied animal care, handling, and vet science, so I stay calm and know what to look for. I send updates so you always know how your pup is doing.
About: I was blessed with my border collie when I was 8 years old, she lived for 14 years and unfortunately passed 2.5 years ago. I take any chance I can get to watch my friends dogs and cats while they’re gone! I work during the weekdays until 4 or 5 pm and have most weekends off. I have an hour lunch some days and could check on your fur baby while I’m home. I know the stress of your fur babies getting into things that could harm them while you’re gone, so if you need them crated up I will make sure they get put away!
About: I have a deep connection with everything living. Growing up with animals on my side throughout my childhood and having 5 at one time was a lot of work but it was surly amazing. I really want a fun job over the summer between school years. I love working hard and overachieving where i should be. Animals help me keep it together and always put a smile on my face no matter what Dog sitting for people i didn't know was a little weird in the beginning than my moms bookclub all started asking me. On top of meeting all the different crazy puppies and their little different perks I loved going back and them remembering me.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Nicollet. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

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 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 walker 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 walker 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 walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
walkers on Rover set their own , 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 walker.
