This is our 2nd time working with Vanessa. Even though Leo likes to hide from her, she communicates well and takes good care of him while we are away.

Mikayla was awesome! She was so easy to work with and very responsible. I would rebook her in a heartbeat whenever I travel again. She did an amazing job and even managed to take photos of my skittish cats. She kept the litter area impeccable. I recommend her 100%!

About: I've taken care of, trained and loved animals since I was little. Growing up that infatuation grew into a dream to have my own kennel and business.

Don't be afraid to reach out. When your fur babies are in my care, they will be treated and cared for as family. I'm currently self-employed through Pawsitive Journey, so I will have plenty of time to provide your pet with the care, attention, and playtime you want and expect. I have a 6+ years of handling and caring for animals in general and would be able to provide the most comfort and the most exhilarating time while you are away, depending on what your pet requires.

About: Lifelong dog lover who truly connects with pups of all kinds. I’m reliable with feeding, walks, playtime, and lots of attention. At any gathering, you’ll find me hanging out with the dog! (When I win the lottery, I want to have a dog sanctuary where all of the older dogs can live out their lives).

Also, on the weekends I dog and cat sat for my friend and her family at there house ranging from 2 days to a few weeks. I am a college student, so I usually have classes in the morning and the rest of the day free. I might have a few shifts at my job that keeps me occupied for 5-7 hours a couple of times a week.

About: I have three cats and one dog at home whom I love very much. I experienced to take care of dogs and cats for family friends. I love to play with dog and cats. I always make sure the pets are healthy and checking on them daily. I also love to take a walk with pets outdoor as it is healthy for pets and for me too. I am currently taking some time off, so my schedule is really flexible except when I will be on vacation some time during the summer. I will follow your instruction (preferably a written instruction) what you would like me to do with your pet(s) in your home and when I am taking your pet out for a walk. It is important to me that your share with me about your pet's personality, dislike, like, what I need to be aware to keep additional attention such as monitor when your pet meets a stranger outside during the walk, amount of food to provide, etc. I believe in open communication to make your pet and home is safe. I also can send pictures of your pet to you, also use FaceTime if you would like at the time when I am with your pet(s).

About: I strive to provide the care and professionalism that I need and expect to be provided to my own pets. Dogs are wonderful creatures that deserve proper love and attention integrated into their family life. I have experience with successful training of my own dog's basic obedience skills (sit, stay, heel, eat, touch, shake, etc). Have taken care of many other dogs, reptiles, and fish for people in my life. I am especially interested in helping reactive dogs or dogs with behavioral issues. I work freelance so I set my own schedule for the most part. Completely flexible for clients needs. A few weeks of the year I'm booked for longer gigs but that is easily identifiable up front for potential clients. Care for clients is completely dependent on their needs and comforts. I will always defer to the client for what is needed for them and their environment. Open and honest communication is the foundation for care and comfortability.

About: I have walked dogs and have had dogs and cats of my own throughout my life, animals ranging from a 100+ pound German Shepard to a small cat. I love them all. During quarentine my friend and I also had our own little dog walking business around or neighbor. We had around 10 frequent clients who we would walk on a weekly basis, so I have had experience with many different dogs. I am here for your animals and excited to meet them! I am going to be working full time this summer and will be working night shifts. I can play with your animals in the morning and mid afternoon. I can also check on them after work. Weekends I will be available every other weekend. I will be able to tend to animals very early in the morning and a little after noon. I am hoping to spend more time with a variety of animals this summer at reasonable costs! I have a decent sized yard with large hedges around it. My mom loves animals so she is happy whenever we dog watch our neighbors dog. I get along with almost all dogs and cats.

About: ​I have been surrounded by dogs and cats my entire life, learning from a young age exactly what it takes to keep pets happy, safe, and comfortable. Whether your fur baby needs a high-energy walk, a strict feeding schedule followed, or just some dedicated cuddle time, I treat every animal as if they were my own. I'm incredibly attentive to their body language and daily routines to ensure they feel right at home. Im currently working a part time job at the hospital so I have plenty of time for your furry friends!! Im available at any time!! I live in an apartment with two of my own fur babies. I have a huge yard out front and back and live in a nice community area good for walking dogs. My apartment is very spacious for any animals coming over and my cats are very friendly and adapted to all types of animals.

About: I grew up having dogs and we have been a dog family for the last 6 years. We have a black lab pitty mix. I am familiar with all types of breeds and our Mocha has some reactivity to other dogs and is an escape artist so I know how important it is to follow directions and keep pups safe. I work 4-5 days a week but I am done by 4:30 and could do an early morning or late afternoon drop in or spend the evenings at your home. I can only offer services in your home. Mocha is a spoiled “only” dog but I am more than happy to come to your home and spoil your pooch!

About: I’ve had a dog since I was 8 years old, which has given me years of hands-on experience caring for and understanding dogs at all stages of life. I currently have a 1-year-old Golden Retriever, so I’m actively involved in daily training, exercise, and care. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, walking, playtime, and giving pets the attention and consistency they need to feel safe and happy. Currently part-time availability with flexible hours, including weekdays and some weekends, allowing me to provide consistent, reliable care that fits around different schedules and needs. I provide a safe, comfortable home environment with a large fenced yard for exercise and play. I can crate dogs if needed and follow any specific routines or instructions you provide. I also have a very friendly, playful dog who gets along well with other dogs and helps create a positive, social, and welcoming atmosphere for visiting pets.

Very happy with Abby! We wouldn’t hesitate to contact her again for our next trip. We have 2 cats and they usually hide when strangers come to the house. Not with Abby though. They knew she was an animal person and they were out and interested in what she was doing. She was able to pet them and hang out with them.

About: I have gone through obedience and skills training with my own family dogs and as a student i am looking to get out and spend time with the furry friends we love so much! I have experience in leashed walking and hiking, as well as drop-in care for senior dogs through puppies and have enjoyed it all. Sunday-Monday: 9am-8pm Tuesday: 9am-3pm Wednesday-Friday: 9am-8pm Saturday: 3pm-8pm As someone who works from home, I am available at almost anytime during the day. I am also a student and coach so those slight differences in Tuesdays and Saturdays have to do with practices and classes. As an in-home sitter, my focuses are set on respecting your privacy and giving your pets a relaxing and comfortable experience. Boundaries are the most important part of this process for you and your animals, as such I want to be well equipped going into meetings with your comfort zone and your priorities! For walking and drop-in care, I apply the same method as in-house sitting, your expectations and the experience you desire for your pets are what I strive to accomplish to the best of my abilities.

About: I have been helping my friends and family take care of their fur babies, I love animals and take care of them as if they’re my own family member. I’m a stay at home mom that is willing and able to help others when I am available. We enjoy being outside any kind of weather. My home is set up for taking good care of any dog. I have a good system to take care of any dog. If they have a lot of energy, I have a pup that loves to play, but can seem aggressive when someone new is in her territory, but warms up quickly. I’m a very active person myself and get outside no matter the weather!

Danielle was amazing with my two mini dachshunds, Max and Romeo, over the Fourth of July weekend! She was patient, kind, and kept me updated with messages, photos, and even videos throughout each visit. Romeo can be shy at first and Max can be a handful, but she handled both of them with calm energy and humor. She followed all my care instructions perfectly, cleaned up accidents without hesitation, and made sure the boys were happy and comfortable. I really appreciated her communication and how much she cared about their well‑being. I’d absolutely book Danielle again — she’s reliable, attentive, and great with dogs who have big personalities!

Siona is fabulous. She really saved me today as I was sick and she popped in to let out my senior dog so she could potty, and get some water. She went above and beyond, and I am grateful for her and I believe my Nova was so excited to have such an amazing visitor.

Olivia is amazing! She stepped in and helped us out when our scheduled dog sitter had to cancel with short notice due to a funeral. She met all my floofy goofs needs and went above and beyond to make sure they got affection, stimulation, and bathroom breaks during her drop in visits. She sent lots of pictures and clear and detailed reports. I look forward to rebooking with her in the future!

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Saint Cloud

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Saint Cloud on Rover is $16.65 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog 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 Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 263 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Saint Cloud. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Saint Cloud stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

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 Cloud 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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.

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 Saint Cloud 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 Saint Cloud. On Rover:

  • 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% 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 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.
