“Nina took amazing care of our pets and our house! Our animals seemed so comfortable in the photos/videos she sent us frequently along with thorough updates which was much appreciated - we’d rebook with her in a heartbeat!”
“Tori did an excellent job taking care of our home and pups while we were gone. We have a very senior dog who needs medication and bathroom breaks multiple times each day along with a 1 year old puppy - not the easiest clients to take on ;) She also took care of monitoring the water for our backyard chickens. She was very professional, respectful and we will definitely have her back to our home in the future.”
“Caitlin was wonderful watching my dogs this past weekend. This is my first experience with Rover. She was highly responsive with communication. She came over to my house in advance to meet the dogs in order to ensure a smooth transition, especially given my dogs protective nature. She also walked me through the process and expectations, not having used Rover previously. My dogs took well to her and that was most important! I would absolutely book with her again.”
“Lia & Steven were wonderful!! Our dogs were so loved and well cared for while we were away. They provided many updates and pictures and were great at communicating! We will absolutely use them again and are so happy we found them!!”
“Rachel is wonderful !!! She and my 1 yr old Goldador Remigus (Remi) instantly bonded at the meet and greet and became great best buddies and new friends. Would highly recommend and plan on more housesitting and/or visits when needed! Thanks so much Rachel !!! Julie and Remi”
“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!”
About: I’ve been dog sitting for neighbors for over 10 years and have also worked at a doggy daycare in Columbia Heights. I have experience caring for dogs of different breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. I currently work part time, which gives me plenty of flexibility to provide reliable pet care. I’m very experienced with managing my schedule and making sure each dog’s needs come first. I make time for regular feeding, walks, playtime, and bathroom breaks. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure to follow their care instructions and give their pets everything they need. During visits, I’ll feed them, let them outside or take them for a walk, and spend time playing with them to help get their energy out. I also make sure they get plenty of attention and are comfortable before I leave.
“Julia was a great companion and caregiver for our dog this weekend. She was attentive and communicated well with us regarding her time with him. The house was well kept and all his needs were met!”
About: I have taken care of dogs and other animals since I was eight years old, but I have been doing it professionally since I was fourteen and have been doing it through rover for eight years. I’ve owned and watched different animals throughout my life, including cats and dogs of all ages, ferrets, rabbits, fish, reptiles, and birds. I’m an avid lover of them and am currently studying animal behavior and wildlife biology. Treats, toys, and enrichment of every kind can be found here! I am able to administer oral medication and am pet CPR certified, always on my toes to help keep your family member happy and healthy. I am currently attending Inver Hills Community College and am there from 8am to 4pm daily, with the exception of Thursdays being from 12pm to 2:30pm. I am available for drop-in appointments later in the day, and am available for house sitting on weekends or for pets that are okay with being left alone for that long. I have a fully fenced in backyard and if the weather permits I keep the door to the yard open all day, allowing your dogs to come and go as they please. Any other animal is housed in my basement, where I keep the screen door shut but open the glass door so they can have fresh air. I have geckos myself and so any reptiles will be expertly cared for and kept away from any stressors by remaining in my room, keeping them safe and happy. If I house sit, I treat your home with the utmost respect. Directions are followed to detail, and pets are loved just as much as they would be at my own place.
“Raelynn was great with Ruby! She stayed at our home to watch her for a week while we were on vacation. She communicated with us when needed and sent pics. To let us know Ruby was doing well! Will definitely book Raelynn again!”
About: I’ve been taking care of family friends pets off and on for years and just getting into rover so lemme know if you have any questions I DoorDash right now for work so I’m mainly home but occasionally gone for a few hours. Always start my day with walking my dog and tend to do more walks the better the weather I have a fenced in yard so the dogs to run around and my own dog to play with. Open to specific instructions so just lemme know
“We are so thankful for Jacqueline who took amazing care of our dog while we were gone for a week. After a year of us working from home our dog now experiences separation anxiety - but being able to stay home and have someone as loving as Jacqueline take care of him not only gave us peace, but our dog too.”
“Ana did a great job caring for Ruby and communicating with us while we were out of town. Our house was well cared for as well! She was quick to respond to any messages and sent pictures as requested. Would book again!”
“We just got back from a weeklong trip & Bri watched my 3 year old Basset Hound. I CAN NOT say enough wonderful things about her. Butters is a neurotic, difficult dog and she was MAGIC! Her communication was top notch. So many pictures and videos all week (which we loved). Our house was in better shape than when we left. Can not recommend enough!”
About: Growing up I was always surrounded by dogs including (labradors, golden retrievers, golden doodles, pugs and multipoo’s). I also watched and took care of my neighbors animals including (tortoises, geckos, fish, and cats) since I was very little. I am active and love going on walks and runs, especially when they are accompanied by a furry friend!! I miss my dogs at home so much, and would love to pour my affection into your animals!🩷 I just graduated nursing school at UND! I now have an open schedule (before I start working full time), and would love to take care of your pets! I am comfortable around pets of all sizes and breeds! I would love to take your dog on a walk or give them some cuddles if walks aren’t their thing.
“Laura was fantastic! Great communication and you could tell she cared about the animals. I normally take my dog Gus to the kennel but we were concerned about his health, so we wanted a little closer monitoring. Laura kept us up to date and made it easier to leave him. Gus and our cat Jasper were in great hands. Thank you so much.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Rosemount
I was reluctant to have a dog sitter come to my house and stay while I was gone, but Wesley did an amazing job. He gave many updates on how my dog was doing with pictures while I was on vacation. When I came home, everything was exactly as I left it, and my dog was well taken care of. Really happy with how it all went !
Charlotte did an amazing job house-sitting and caring for our dog, Xander, for four days. She truly made him her priority and gave him so much attention and love while we were away. She played tug with him, took him on walks, which he absolutely enjoyed. Charlotte also kept our home neat and tidy, and it was such a relief knowing both our dog and house were in great hands. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for dog and a spotless house. I would highly recommend Charlotte to anyone looking for a trustworthy, responsible, and caring pet sitter or house sitter, and I would not hesitate to have her watch Xander again.
We are so grateful we found Nurana to care for our senior boxer while we went to visit family for Thanksgiving! She provided updates, including pictures, multiple times/day while we were away. Our minds were completely at ease knowing our pup was in great hands & that Nurana was enjoying her time with her. We would definitely recommend her to care for your pets!
Krys did a wonderful job with my dog and my cat! She checked in and met me know how they were doing and gave extra care to my dog, she is diabetic! I had complete trust and confidence in my pets being cared for while I was away!!! She also stayed at my house and things were just as I left them when I returned!! Highly recommend Krys and her services!!
Katherine was great! She is energetic and bubbly...an perfect match of my energetic 1.5 year old Shi-poo. She took her on two walks a day to get all the energy expended. Everything went so smoothly which put my mind at ease when I was traveling. I would highly recommend her and will be booking her in the future.

FAQs for House Sitting - Rosemount
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Rosemount on Rover is $33.3 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 3,340 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Rosemount. 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 Rosemount 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 Rosemount 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 Rosemount 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.
