About: Caring for pets has been a part of my life for a long time, through both pets of our own and foster pets! We’ve been fostering for the past decade and have cared for over 30 dogs and cats. I have experience with dogs with all kinds of personalities, including shy, anxious, and reactive. My favorite thing about animals is they all have their own personalities, and I love learning about who they are! My approach is to meet pets where they’re at and let them set the pace for our interactions, especially those who need a little extra time to feel comfortable with someone new. Senior dogs have an especially big place in my heart, as we have two of our own, and I’m very comfortable with the extra patience and care older pups sometimes need. I’ve also fostered and spent time with dogs of many breeds, sizes, and personalities, including bully breeds which are always welcome! I work a hybrid schedule, and will spend most of my day with your pet. When I leave, it will generally be no longer than about 4 hours at a time, whether for work or to see my own pets and family. If I expect I’ll need to be gone longer than this at any point during the stay, I’ll let you know before booking! I will treat your home as a guest in it; I’m tidy and will clean up after me and your pets! What is helpful for me to know is what your pet’s typical day looks like, if they have any favorite or important parts to their routine, and ways they like to get stimulation (walk, play, puzzles). Where do they sleep? As much information as you can tell me about your pet is better so I can keep things as normal for them as possible!
“Elizabeth treats our cat and chinchillas like her own and it’s always so wonderful knowing our furry friends are in great hands whenever we’re out of town. She administers daily meds and goes above and beyond to make sure the pets are all happy and healthy. My cat gets very anxious during Thunderstorms, but Elizabeth takes the time to help calm him down and make sure he’s at ease. It’s incredible the difference we’ve seen in our animals since Elizabeth started caring for them. Our cat in particular used to have a lot of behavior issues whenever we’d go out of town. We haven’t had any of those issues since Elizabeth started watching him. She gives them the routine and attention they need, and we always come home to very happy healthy pets!”
“Carolyn was the best at checking in and providing detailed updates on our cat Durango. She even got some really great pictures of her! We would definitely use Carolyn again and recommend her to all our friends.”
“Jill is just wonderful. I can’t imagine a better sitter and friend for our cat! She goes above and beyond and always sends us many photos and updates. Finding her has been such a blessing”

About: Hi! I’m a caring, reliable pet lover in blaine who understands that pets are family. I’m here to give your dog or cat plenty of attention, patience, playtime, walks, and affection while you’re away. Whether your pet needs a fun walk, a drop in visit, feeding, cuddles, or someone to keep them company, I will follow their routine and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m dependable, communicative, and will treat your fur baby with the same care I would give my own. I have experience with my own animals and family and friends animals I start school October 5th and have lots of down time from 1pm-6pm so pet care fits in really well with my schedule. And I’m always looking for things to do. I always watch for body language and signs of animals being stressed or in uncomfortable situations and as soon as I notice anything odd I remove them from that situation.
“Michelle was a great first sitter to have as an introduction to Rover! She was communicative and shared lots of pictures, and kept our sweet boy from getting lonely and sad!”
About: I have always loved being around dogs! I had a pup in my family for about 5 years when I was younger. Other than him I enjoy my family and friend’s dogs. I love taking them out for potty breaks and walks. I have house/dog sat multiple times for my family members. Treats are my love language and I never mind cleaning up accidents! I currently work full time but I get done with my days around noon. My schedule can be flexible if I get noticed ahead of time. I also travel for work. It’s not often but I will give a good heads up! Dogs will always be on a lease with me, unless trusted in a dog park. I take child and others safety seriously when it comes to public interactions.
About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs my entire life. I currently have 4 amazing dogs of my own, I foster and volunteer for a local rescue so I have worked with dogs of all sizes, temperaments and needs. Whether it’s snuggles on the couch, long walks, play time, or calm companionship, I’m here to give your dog all the care, love and attention they deserve while you are away. I believe in treating every dog like my own-with patience, kindness and fun. I provide regular updates and photos, so you'll never have to wonder how your dog is doing. Whether it's a walk, a drop-in, or an overnight stay, I'll make sure your pup is safe, comfortable, and happy. Let's set up a meet & greet-l'd love to meet you and your furry best friend! I currently work full time so am available any day after 3 to bring your pup for a walk, feed them or bring them to my house to play with my dogs. I can make any night work for overnight care. I live in a dog-loving home with a secure, dog-friendly environment. My own dogs are well-socialized and friendly, and I take introductions slowly to make sure everyone feels safe and comfortable. I am also available to come to your home to take care of your dog if preferred.
“Another great job! We are so happy our kitties are comfortable with you, we know they are in great hands. I'm so appreciative of the communication and cute pics of them when you visit.”
About: I’ve always loved animals and have spent years caring for dogs both personally and professionally. I have my own dog and am very comfortable handling all the day to day responsibilities that come with pet care, from walks and playtime to feeding, medications, and overnight stays. Over the years I’ve also cared for many other pets through walks, drop in visits, and house sitting. I currently have multiple long term clients that I’ve worked with for over two years, and I take a lot of pride in being someone both pets and their owners can trust and rely on. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. Whether your dog loves long walks, extra playtime, or just wants a calm companion while you’re away, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for! I work part time and have a very flexible schedule, so pet care fits into my day pretty naturally. I’m able to accommodate walks, drop ins, and overnight care, and I don’t mind adjusting my schedule to make sure pets get the attention and consistency they need. I’m very attentive and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, so they get a lot of love and attention while they’re in my care. I like to make sure we can get out all their energy during the day to help relieve any anxiety they have without their family and feel safe with me! I know every pet and owner has different preferences, and I’m happy to adapt to whatever works best for you. Just let me know your pet’s routine and your expectations, and I’ll do my best to care for them the way you would.
About: I am an energetic person and love to work with animals outside. I do enjoy walks with them, and I got to work on a dude ranch a few years ago! Animals were always around! I love to engage with pets and keep them engaged till they are ready to relax. I am a full-time archaeologist, but I have time when I'm not traveling for work in the afternoons. I am looking to take on some extra work and get to care for some pets! I can't have a cat or dog due to my travel, but I love to be around them. I love to play with cats and dogs whenever I care for them. I give them the time they need to get used to me, and play more when they want to be near me or give them as many pets as they request. I am huge on getting dogs outside and getting their energy out.
“Tim was outstanding!! He was on time, had exceptional communication, and made sure to give my guy the extra love and attention he deserves!! I will exclusively be using him for any future services that I book!! 10/10!”
“Tina is an amazing pet sitter! She took care of my two cats, who are so sweet but also high maintenance and she did so well! They both had accidents and she cleaned them, plus set up treats and puzzles for them which I appreciated so much. I am most definitely reaching out anytime I need a sitter, thank you Tina!”

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 North Oaks 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 .
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 , 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 .

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.
