About: I'm a life-long animal lover with short term experience pet sitting looking to make it long term experience. Whether your animal needs high energy play or cuddling and companionship, I treat every pet with the same love and care I would give my own. I'm pretty flexible right now and do not have anything consistently stopping me from pet sitting or walking. I figure I will most likely be part-timing with animal care. I can walk your dogs, play with them inside and outside, feed, potty, and even do a little bit of word training if you're interested (teaching things like sit, lay down, up, paw..but nothing super fancy). I love playing with kitties as well and can even take them on walks if you do that with them! Aside from any of those basic services I am always down to cuddle and love the animals as they need.

About: I have had my own dog since I was 4. I also have been a dog sitter for many of my neighbors for years. I have experience with frequent visits during the day and overnight sitting. I’ve also had experience with special conditions such as giving medication and caring for pets who are ill. For example, my dog needs ear drops and allergy medication, so I have experience with those types of medication specifically. I also have experience cat sitting and caring for other pets, like small rodents or snakes. Currently I am working full time, hybrid, with two days in the office. I’m available for visits during the mornings and afternoons/nights during the week or weekend. I will be more available during the holiday season as well and can sit for an extended period of time if you are on vacation. I have a cat at home so I cannot provide home services, but I am available for house sitting! I have done many extended stays and have the luxury of working from home, so if your pet needs to stick to their schedule, I can be there.

About: Dogs: I have grown up with German Shepherds my entire life. I currently own an elderly one and understand the difficulties of having an elderly dog. But also because I lived with them I learned to handle and read the body language of dogs. I have had a few smaller dogs in my life also so no worries if you own a smaller family member(s) because I'm comfortable with all sizes. (I have also been training dogs for 3+ years and wish to offer that soon!) Cats: My first job as a kid was to watch our kind neighbors cat. Meaning I fed, played and cleaned the litter box. I have also grown up around cats and I own 2 myself Other Animal Family Members: I also have owned many different reptiles, birds and small animals like leopard geckos, snakes, hamsters, guinea pigs, cockatiels and a few others. (So please feel free to reach out if you need a visit for these family members as well). I currently have afternoon times available! I am free from Thursday - Sunday from 11am to 10pm. I am currently in school so I have a very flexible schedule during that time to stop by and care for your family member(s). Your dog or cat is a family member. I will care for them just as you would. If you feel I have not met this, I wish for feedback on how I can do better. I am very communicative if you have any concerns or need updates as the visit goes on please feel free to notify me. If I am concerned about your family member(s) I will openly reach out to make sure you know right away and we can figure out what needs to happen next. My goal is to make you the owner feel comfortable with leaving your family member(s) with me and also have your family member(s) be comfortable with me. Thank you for considering me!

About: Hello! My name is Sejla (Shayla), and caring for dogs is my absolute passion. I genuinely love spending time with dogs, whether it’s playing fetch, taking long walks, or simply giving them the love and attention they deserve. I take pride in treating every dog as if they were my own, ensuring their comfort, happiness, and well-being at all times. I understand their unique needs and always go the extra mile to make them feel safe and at ease. Dogs bring me so much joy, and I believe my calm, free-spirited energy helps them feel comfortable and relaxed around me. You can trust that I will not only care for your dog but also give you peace of mind knowing they’re in loving hands. I currently have a full-time job, Monday-Friday until 4:30PM. My fiance works from home, so he takes care of our dogs when I'm gone. I ensure that the dogs I care for have access to fresh food and water at all times so they’re well-nourished and hydrated. I also take them outside regularly, every 2-4 hours or as necessary, to give them the opportunity to use the bathroom and get some fresh air. This routine helps keep them comfortable and establishes a routine. I live for my two puppies (they're adult dogs, but I still like to call them puppies). :) I would bring them everywhere with me if I could, and anywhere they're allowed I'll take them with me! It's hard for me to pass the Dog aisle and not grab a treat or toy for my puppies. I enjoy taking my pups for walks, or to the dog park, playing with toys, giving them treats and taking a million photos of them. In my home, I prioritize a safe, trusting, and welcoming environment. I make sure the space is dog-proofed by securing anything that could be harmful, such as cords, small objects, and potentially toxic household items. I set up a cozy area where they can rest comfortably and feel at ease, surrounded by familiar toys and bedding. I spend quality time with each dog, giving them affection, attention, and reassurance. I also stick to a consistent schedule, including taking them outside every few hours for bathroom breaks and exercise. I offer flexible pet care services to meet the needs of both you and your dog. Whether you'd prefer your dog to stay in the comfort of your home or come to mine, I will ensure that they receive the same level of care, love, and attention. I'd make sure they're in their familiar surroundings while maintaining their routine, and you can trust that your dog will be treated like family, where they'll feel safe and comfortable. Whichever option works best for you, I’m here to provide the perfect environment to ensure your dog feels happy and secure. I'll be sure to send you photos/videos and updates accordingly as well!

About: There’s something about a dog’s loyalty, personality, and the way they become such an important part of our lives that I’ve always cherished. My love for dogs began at a very young age; at just six years old, I had a Poodle of my own and was already learning the responsibility and joy of caring for a dog. Throughout my life, I’ve proudly had dogs of my own and cared for friends’ and family members’ dogs while they were away. We recently lost our beloved German Shepherd/Husky to old age, and although his loss was difficult, it reminded me how much joy dogs bring into our lives. I would love the opportunity to share that extra love and attention with another amazing dog while their family is away. I’m a lifelong dog lover with more than two decades of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and temperaments, ranging from 2 to 165 pounds. I genuinely enjoy getting to know each dog’s unique personality, quirks, routines, and preferences and tailoring my care to help them feel safe, comfortable, and at home. I care for every dog as if they were my own, providing plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, affection, and walks when weather permits and with the owner’s approval. My 60-by-55-foot fully fenced yard provides plenty of space to play, explore, and enjoy multiple potty breaks throughout the day. I also work from home with a flexible schedule, allowing me to be present and attentive to my furry guests. Whether your pup loves cuddles or prefers personal space, I’m happy to follow their lead and respect their individual needs. With experience caring for dogs who are anxious, fearful, reactive, or more challenging to handle, I’ve developed strong observational skills and can recognize signs of stress, discomfort, illness, or injury. I’m also comfortable administering medications, following specific care instructions and routines, and providing basic first aid when needed. Most importantly, I love spoiling my furry guests because, in my opinion, they’re on vacation too! 🐾 You’re welcome to bring their regular food, treats, favorite toys, bed, blanket, or other comfort items to help make their stay familiar and special. I’m dependable in all weather conditions and always prioritize the safety, health, and comfort of every guest. If my calendar shows that I’m unavailable, please feel free to reach out anyway. I’m flexible whenever possible and happy to see if we can find a time that works. I look forward to meeting you and welcoming your furry family member into our home! ****** ******** ***** I’m proud to share that I’ve had the opportunity to volunteer with Can Do Canines and regularly participate in dog-related events. These experiences have been incredibly rewarding, and I’m grateful to be able to contribute to the care, training, and support of these remarkable dogs as they prepare to change lives. I have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to be readily available and provide pets with plenty of attention and companionship throughout the day. I also have a fully fenced-in yard, which is ideal for multiple potty breaks, outdoor playtime, and exercise throughout the day. Caring for a pet comes down to consistently meeting their physical, emotional, and health needs. The exact details vary depending on the animal, of course! -I have a 60-by-55-foot fully fenced yard and pet gates in the house (if needed); -I love to go for walks with pets; -I love to cuddle and play with pets if that’s what they are into; -I feed them a balanced diet per owners’ instructions. Fresh water is always available. -I’d love to comb them if tools are provided from owners; -I provide lots of daily update pictures and/or videos; -And would be open to any reasonable requests owners might have.

About: Until recently, I have always had dogs, and have helped take care of dogs and cats for my neighbors and family members. I also have a son who is working with Rover who lived in my home for 3 years while caring for many clients. I was honored to help with the care of those wonderful pets. Now, I find myself without a dog and retired, so I would love to care for your dog or cat. I am exclusively doing pet care, so my schedule is very flexible. I am retired, so I could spend as much time as you would need me to with your pet, great for furry friends with separation anxiety. I will follow all instructions very carefully and keep you updated with photos if you would like. I'll treat your home like it was my own.

About: I’ve had dogs as pets since I was 6 years old. I’ve had German Shepards, Pugs, Labs, Boxers, puggles and mixed breeds. I love all dogs~ and am currently dog free. I will care for yours as I would my own- like children. 🥰. I’ve had a long career in Human Resources, and with that comes great responsibility, trust and integrity. I have clean background- not even a parking ticket. I enjoy playing with dogs, petting them (maybe some smooches as evidenced in my photos) and giving plenty of love and attention. I can walk dogs, feed them, give medicine, throw a few balls - whatever their favorite activity is just let me know! I have had special needs dogs as well- so special circumstances are not a problem. Thanks!

About: I’ve spent a lot of time caring for dogs of all ages and personalities—from energetic puppies who need structure and patience to senior dogs who need a slower pace and a little extra TLC. I’m big on keeping routines consistent, whether that’s walks, feeding schedules, or bedtime habits, so your dog feels safe and at home. I’m comfortable working on basic training with puppies (leash manners, sit, stay, potty routines) and I’m very attentive with senior dogs, including giving meds, helping with mobility, and making sure they’re comfortable and relaxed. I pay close attention to body language and behavior, so I can adapt quickly if a dog is anxious, shy, or just needs more space. What really sets me apart is that I genuinely love spending time with dogs—not just caring for them, but bonding with them. I treat every dog like they’re my own, and I always aim to make their time with me calm, fun, and stress-free. I have a very flexible schedule during the week and am able to set my own hours, which allows me to easily plan my days around pet care. I’m primarily available Monday through Friday and can accommodate walks, drop-ins, and care throughout the day without rushing. I generally keep weekends minimal and prefer limited or pre-planned weekend care when scheduled in advance. This helps me stay consistent and make sure every pet still gets the attention and care they deserve. I currently provide care in my clients’ homes only. I find that pets are often most comfortable in their own space, surrounded by familiar smells, routines, and environments. I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and household rules. I’m very careful with doors, leashes, and home security, and I always keep the environment clean and safe. I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and comfort level and adjust my approach to meet their needs. I also respect my clients’ homes and make sure everything is left exactly as I found it. Clear communication is important to me, so I provide regular updates and check-ins to give pet parents peace of mind while they’re away.

Given that my dog is blind and relatively energetic, finding someone reliable I can trust to care for her is extremely important to me. During our booking, Briana was extremely kind, professional, and responsive.

FAQs for Dog Sitting - Robbinsdale

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Robbinsdale is $20 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $28 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 5,643 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Robbinsdale. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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 Robbinsdale 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page.

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.

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 Meet & Greet.

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in Robbinsdale with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Robbinsdale. On Rover:

  • 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% can help with daily exercise

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.

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.

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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 sitter.
