“Emma was great! She took such good care of our special needs pup and elderly cat. She asked great questions and followed everything we asked. We got a bunch of updates and pictures, so nice. Will absolutely be booking with her again!”
“Camille and Jordan were fantastic with our house and animals (elderly dog, cat and rabbit)! They were prompt in responding and making sure they had the information needed to take the best care of our animals. They were on time and communicated with us as needed. Our animals are our babies and they seemed perfectly comfortable and happy with Camille and Jordan so we will definitely be booking again!”
“Lisa did a great job with our shy kitty and even thought of things I didn't think to ask her (like leaving a kitchen lamp and the radio on for the cat, since we were getting home after dark from our trip). She left everything in great shape, ran the dishwasher etc., sent us pics of our kitty and was responsive to messages. Thanks Lisa!!”
“Beth was awesome. She took loving care of our 5 year old dog and 14 year old cat. We got pictures every day and updates on them. We already have her booked to stay with our crew in December! So glad we found her”
“Alicja is wonderful with my young pup. She is knowledgeable when it comes to caring for dogs and patient with my stubborn pup. She has already taught me a few things. Highly recommend.”
“Sarah was a wonderful sitter and took great care of all my babies. She was super communicative and very flexible when my plans changed a bit. I would highly recommend her to anyone.”
“Natasha took delicate care not only of my pet, but of my space too. My cat is on the shy side and can be slow to warm up to new people, but I can attest that Natasha's energy can bring those types out of their shell. I occasionally received picture and video updates which I loved. I highly recommend Natasha--she's dependable, respectful, and trustworthy.”
“Karen was amazing with our puppies! She was incredibly responsive, professional and thoughtful. She asked great questions making sure she knew how to take care of the animals and the house while we were gone. She offered to help out in so many ways and sent many pictures and updates while we were gone. We will 100% use her again and would recommend her to anyone.”

“This was our second time having Alex stay with our pups and she was just as amazing! Our boys always look so happy with her and it’s so nice to know they are in good hands while we are away. I’ve been recommending her to everyone!”
“Penny was my favorite sitter so far. She was great at communicating before, during, and after the trip. She left my house almost better than it was before I left. But most importantly, she bonded with my cats. I felt completely at ease while away because I could tell by her messages and photos that she genuinely liked my cats. Bonus... She also has a sense of humor. I will definitely be booking with Penny again.”
“Michelle took such great care of our dog and cat (and house!) while we were away. Our dog is particularly grumpy and Michelle was able to walk and feed him without issue. We were also updated often which helped us enjoy our vacation knowing they were doing well. The house was clean upon our return - would book again!”
“This was our first time using the service. Gretchen did a good job with our dogs. They love people and tend to get worked up when they are away at the kennel for multiple days. It was fun to get photos during our time away. We feel very comfortable using Gretchen again.”
“Leann was wonderful! It was our first time leaving our one year old dachshund over night and we weren’t sure how it would go, but Leann sent us pictures and updates and took great care of our little guy!”
“Cari is great with my boyz - they settled in easily with her and she gave really nice updates while we were away. Very mature, responsive and responsible- the kind of person you want watching your fur- babies🥰”
“Amber was great! She gave us daily updates and pictures. Did great talking care of my 3 older dogs and giving the oldest her meds. The house was left tidy and she was very responsive. Would recommend using her to dogsit/house sit.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - North Saint Paul
This was our first time using Rover and we were nervous, but Madeline eased all of our worries! She was so fantastic with our dog - our dog loved her. We appreciated the photos and updates that Madeline sent. We will definitely be booking with Madeline again in the future!
Jamie did a fabulous job with our 2 goldens, cat and gekcos. 2 of our pets are older and needed more attention than normal, particularly our older golden who needed regular meds. She also stayed on top of watering the garden and plants in the heat. Left our house clean and did the laundry and trash! Very pleased.
We are repeat customers of Sahtyn. She gives us great peace of mind and provides kind, reliable care to our older dog and cat. We appreciate her flexibility, patience, communication and experience. It makes all the difference to know our animals are in good hands when we can’t be at home.
This was our first time using Keely, but it won’t be our last! She was very easy to communicate and coordinate with. The dogs seemed to really like her. She provided good updates and photos. House was like we left it when we returned. Will definitely be booking again!

FAQs for House Sitting - North Saint Paul
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in North Saint Paul on Rover is $55.5 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 3,386 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across North Saint Paul. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred North Saint Paul walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in North Saint Paul maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Saint Paul 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!
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.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
