“Olivia took wonderful care of our dog, an energetic two-year old pup. She did a wonderful job of staying in touch with me with questions. I would definitely ask her to care for our dog in the future!”
“Emerson did a wonderful job caring for our dog and bunny while we were on vacation! Our dog is very anxious and can be quite a handful - he was very patient and understanding with her. Highly recommend!”
“Sarah was so great! Our somewhat cranky cat absolutely loved her :) We felt totally at ease knowing she was well cared for while we were gone. Will definitely book again!!”
“Kendra took great care of our two dogs while we were away, and our dogs clearly enjoyed their time with her. She was kind and attentive, followed our instructions exactly, communicated frequently, and went above and beyond to keep all of us happy. We’re already looking forward to having her house sit again.”
“Biiftuu was an excellent dog sitter. She clearly took good care of my little Aussie poo. She sent good pictures and left the house in excellent shape. I would hire her again.”
“Amber did a great job sitting and taking care of my dog! She was attentive and kept me well informed. I would definitely recommend her and would love to have her sit with him again in the future”
“Sergio took amazing care of our dog, Sunny, and our cat, Mack, while we were away for a week. He was reliable, communicative, and made sure both pets were well cared for and loved. We appreciated the updates and could tell our pets were happy and comfortable with him. Highly recommend Sergio to anyone looking for a trustworthy, professional, and attentive pet sitter! Thank you Sergio!”
“Danielle was great with our puppy and older cat! She was very communicative and sent some pics, which we appreciated. House was as we left it and the pets were happy! Would definitely recommend her!”
“Rachel was wonderful with our puppy (first time without us) and our two cats. She was able to take a last minute request and was super communicative and great with the animals. Can’t recommend enough!”
“Connie is a miracle worker! I have a very anxious kitty that hides from everyone, but Connie was able to get her to warm up and be friendly. Connie took detailed notes on Mochi's care, and clearly cared about her happiness and comfort. She sent tons of updates, including lots of photos and videos, throughout my time away, and it was so nice to see my kitty purr and enjoying her attention. Connie also took excellent care of the house, it was like I never left!”
About: Hello, my name is Claire. I have been lucky enough to grow up surrounded by dogs and cats, and have pet sat many times for friends and family. Because of this, I have learned to care for animals at every stage of life. My experience ranges from command and walk training for puppies, to adhering to a regimented medicine routine for senior dogs, to doing daily playtime and pet waste clean-up. I am very tidy, organized, and am happy to adapt to you and your pets' needs. I also love to spend time outside, so I can promise plenty of walks and safe outside time for your pet. I'm excited to meet and care for your furry friend! I am a graduate student at the U of Minnesota, but I will have time outside of class for your dogs. I am most available to stay over on Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday nights, as well as Wednesday and Friday during the day. On weekdays, I will be out for several hours at school in the middle of the day, but will be available for drop in visits or walks during the morning and late afternoon. While I do not offer boarding pets in my home, I am happy to do home visits that adhere to your pets' routine. I will respect what time they typically eat meals, wake up, play, go outside, and walk, as well as where they sleep in your home. I will also ensure that your home is kept clean during my stay.
“Summer is fantastic. She is so thorough and detailed and handled our two Berners while away for a long weekend. So attentive to all of their needs and amazing communication. We hope she liked us as much as we liked her! ?”
“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.”
“Marykay was amazing! She dog sat at our house and the dogs clearly enjoyed spending time with her. So was so great with them and I’m pretty sure she left our house cleaner than when we left! Will definitely have her watch our boys again!”
“Gretchen did a great job taking care of Rocky and Wally. We came home to happy healthy dogs and she left our house clean and well kept. We would absolutely rebook!”
“This was my first time using Eleanor. She was very responsive when setting up the potential dog sitting. I thought she was trustworthy, caring and stayed in good contact while I was away. I would highly recommend using her in the future.”
“Divya stayed at my house with Loon for 2 days. She was wonderful, knowledegable, communicative, and very organized with logistics! We went on a walk for a meet & greet and Divya handled my 90-lbs dog extremely well, she was able to anticipate and pre-empt any moves Loon might have made. She left the house in great condition and Loon was peacefully snoozing when I arrived back at home. I would 100% work with her again!”

Oliver was a wonderful dog and house sitter! He stayed with our dog, Sunny, for three nights, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. It gave us such peace of mind knowing Sunny and our home were in good hands. Oliver was reliable, caring, and easy to communicate with. We would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter and would happily have him stay with Sunny again!
Allison did such a great job watching my dog, Cali. Cali is an energetic girl who loves attention and it’s clear she got it. I received regular updates with photos and videos of her being loved on and entertained as well as comfortably napping. I am so pleased with Allison’s care.
Always grateful when Abigail is free to watch our dogs! Our dogs are chill when she walks in the door and we love hearing her stories of their walks and getting a ton of pictures! She took careful notes the first time she watched them and always makes sure to catch any updates in their routines.
Shantil is such a caring, kind, wonderful and responsible caretaker!!! She helped us out very last minute when we had a cancellation and cared for our 12 week old puppy at our home overnight and Teddy loved his time with her!!! We had a wonderful meet and greet before the weekend which was much appreciated!! She kept us updated the whole time with messages and pictures which was also so appreciated! We will definitely ask her to care for Teddy many times over 🐶💙!!
I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for Alina! Olivia was absolutely wonderful with her, kept me updated throughout the evening, and sent the sweetest photos. She’s such a lovely person, incredibly communicative, and very responsible. I felt completely comfortable knowing Alina was in such good hands. I would absolutely recommend Olivia to anyone looking for a reliable, caring sitter, and I will definitely be booking with her again! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️!!
Sarah is fantastic. Our normally shy dog, Cricket, immediately warmed up to her. Our little lover, Birdie, couldn't get enough of her. Cricket is a bit on the higher-maintenance side, requiring meds and a little more TLC—we're often nervous about leaving her, but felt confident putting both of them in Sarah's care. We returned from a 10-day trip to a clean home and happy pups.
Literally the most above and beyond Rover you could ask for. Aftyn watched Franklin during our wedding weekend. My wife’s sister secretly reached out and Aftyn brought Frank to the courthouse to surprise us and get some pictures taken. She delivered and was great with Frank while watching him too. 100 out of 5!
Madeline stayed in my home with my cat, Juan, for 10 days, and she was amazing! Juan really bonded with her, and her communication was top-notch throughout my trip. When he stopped eating for a couple of days, she let me know immediately, spoke with the vet clinic, restarted some of his medications, and picked up different food options. Thanks to her attentiveness and interventions, she was able to get him eating again. I came home to a tidy house and clean bedding. I will definitely have Madeline care for Juan again!

The average cost of House Sitting in Saint Anthony is $44 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $29 and $72 per night.

As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

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 Saint Anthony 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 Saint Anthony 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Saint Anthony 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 , 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 .
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 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 .
sitters 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 sitter.
