“Caroline is as so wonderful with our pup! She even stopped by last minute to do a little meet and greet before our visit to get familiar! Would definitely book with Caroline again”
“Taylor did an excellent job of taking care of my cat who hates it when I leave her. Her communication was great and she offered to stop by to check on the cat on a unscheduled day. My cat would like Taylor to come back in the future:)”
“Natalie is so kind, very trustworthy and open to anything you need help with while you’re gone. She asked if it was Ok to bring along her daughter which was great, our kitty really seemed to love her! She played with her on the floor and gave her lots of attention. It is not uncommon for our kitty to hide when new visitors come over but this wasn’t the case this time! It was so reassuring getting photos of our pets while we were gone too. Our 3 guinea pigs were well taken care of as well. I highly recommend Natalie and we hope to use her again, Thank you!”
About: I’ve fostered dogs for 5 years, and now have 2 of my own! I have 2 Labs (Weasley and Granger) and they love other dogs! I frequently dog sit for neighbors and friends, and since I work from home, and understand the need for people to need some checkins, walks or even someone to watch your pup for a bit during the day! I’m new to Rover, but looking forward to meeting some new dog pals! I work from home and have a fenced in yard, so any dog would have plenty if fun playing with my 2 dogs and/or just hanging out playing with toys inside! Happy to take them on walks if needed too! I have a fenced in yard, and plenty of room inside to care for your dog. Plenty of toys to play with too, or just lounge on a dog bed while I’m working.
“This was my first time using Clara, and I will definitely be reaching out to her again! She was wonderful with the girls and they seemed to really enjoy their time with her. I especially appreciated all of the photo updates during the visit. It was great to see the girls and know that they were getting lots of attention and having a nice visit while I was away. Clara was very attentive and made sure I knew how everything was going, which I really appreciated. Thank you, Clara, for taking such great care of my girls! We’ll definitely be happy to have you visit them again! 🐾❤️”
“Elizabeth did what was needed to care for my cat. She made sure my cat had fresh water, food, and cleaned the litter box. Above all else, she made sure my cat was well cared for before leaving. I will definitely be hiring her again.”
About: Hi! I’m Sydney and I’m 28 years old. I have been taking care of dogs for over 10 years for friends and family. My family has fostered dogs, so I have experience with dogs of all sizes and behaviors. I also have an anxious fur baby of my own, so dogs that need extra care hold a special place in my heart. I currently work in the corporate world full time, but I have a very flexible job. I work a hybrid schedule which means I am working at home for most of the week and can often be available during the day. I live in an areas with many walking trails and a small dog park outside my apartment. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and am comfortable handling larger dogs.
About: I have loved and owned dogs (and other pets) all my life. I am an empty-nester now and an avid walker with no pets at home currently. We have a wonderful fenced in yard and live close to the Greenway and Grand Round paths where I love to walk. My love for dogs and walking seem to be a great intersection for this service. I hate to think of dogs at home alone while owners are at work and would love to help out by keeping them company and giving them exercise! I am an enthusiastic and nurturing "dog mom"!
“Megan helped me out on incredibly short notice and was an absolute gem. I loved getting my report cards on her visits with plenty of pictures. I felt so at ease and comfortable with Megan watching my baby. Can’t wait for her next visit!”
“Spencer did a great job caring for my kitties while I was gone! He took the time to play with them and even cleaned up their little messes! Very respectful and would rebook with him in the future.”
“Rose did an amazing job meeting both of my cats needs as one of them need or a medication. She made me feel very confident while I was away with updates and pictures.”
“My dog Peter is in hospice. He is stage 4 kidney disease. That is the bad part. The good part is he is happy enjoying the end of his novel free from pain. To keep Peter happy, it's a lot of work frankly. Lots of medications and Sub Q fluids (Fluids are administered through a small needle inserted into the skin between Pete's shoulder blades) to flush out his failing kidney every day. That is where Howie comes in. I travel quite frequently, and it has become increasingly difficult for my 83-year-old father to give Pete the Sub Q fluids because he does not really enjoy the treatment. Howie is so kind, gentle and loving with Pete and provides him with his treatment any time i am out of town. I honestly do not know what I would (or my entire family) would do without his help. I am so lucky to have found him as it is not easy finding someone with the experience that Howie has with ailing fur babies.”
About: I grew up with a family dog and now am a proud parent of two sweet kitties. I miss being around dogs and would love the chance to care for your fur babies! I work full time from home, generally 8-5. I am occasionally available for lunchtime or midday walks and definitely available for evening and weekend check ins! I have two cats that are shy around other animals so I cannot currently care for other animals in my home. In your home, I am happy to follow care instructions and make sure your pets feel safe, happy and entertained while you’re away!
“Cari-Ana has been extremely helpful and patient with my dog. He is very nervous, and she was gentle and patient with him. I feel extremely confident leaving my dog in her care! She is knowledgeable, caring, and great to work with!”
“This was my first time using Rover, and I’m happy I chose Maggie to watch my 2 cats. She did a great job. She’s very pleasant, friendly, and easy to work with, and good with communicating and responding quickly to messages. I had originally scheduled just 4 visits since I wasn’t sure how it would go, but things went well and Maggie was very accommodating about extending the booking 3 more days. I got lots of updates with photos, and came home to a clean house and happy cats. Doesn’t get any better than that! I will definitely use Maggie again for pet sitting and would recommend her to other pet parents.”
About: My pet experience ranges from helping raising our 3 Rottweiler puppies growing up, to cats, guinea pigs, hermit crabs and more! Now with years of experience under my belt, I can proudly say I’ve helped with senior cats and dogs, all the way down to a 6 month old Chow Chow puppy! With training a rescue puppy of my own, you can garuntee your pet will be in safe hands! I’m currently working part time, and can block off my schedule as needed when I’m not seeing clients, so I’ll have plenty of time to give your pets some love! I very easily and thoroughly follow directions, with great attention to detail. This way, your pet can feel right at home, even while you’re away. If your pup loves dog friends, I have a 1 year old Shih Tzu mix who can hang with us :) Otherwise, I will give your pet all the one on one love they need!

Seriously folks! Choose Taylor! This was my first experience on Rover and I could not have had a better experience. I had a quick meet and greet with Taylor before she watched my dogs and not only did I instantly like her, I also felt I could trust her. I was able to enjoy my time away and not worry about the dogs. Thank you so much Taylor!!!!!!!
Maddy was absolutely wonderful! She was so kind and considerate to our three male cats! We left for a week and had Maddy come drop in on them every now and again. She was even understanding and accommodating for our trouble child (one of the cats), who can have a hard time with new people. We were so grateful Maddy came by and gave us updates on our gremlins! 😁

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Saint Louis Park
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Saint Louis Park is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $34 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 October 2026, there are 5,835 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Saint Louis Park. 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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Saint Louis Park. On Rover:
- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% 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.
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.
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.
