About: I’ve had pets for most of my life and have loved taking care of friends dogs over the years. I have a small (15lb) dog (4yo). Enjoy meeting new dogs for walks - and offer co walking if your dog enjoys that For my daycare dogs. I currently work from home. My dog loves having a friend around and we go on walks and play in the house. A typical day is a walk, followed by a nap on the couch some Zumiez in the fully fenced backyard another walk lunchtime nap another walk. For dog walking, I can take you dog solo or on a co walk with my little dog - based on your preference. Your Dog will play in the house/ backyard and every few hours go on a walk in the neighborhood. Your Dog will be welcome to explore my home as if it’s their own and we can adjust schedules to meet their needs.
About: I've spent years caring for both cats and dogs, including lots of time with our family dog. I'm patient, organized, and happy to follow your routine to the letter. Morning and evening drop-ins are my specialty. I'm a quick, reliable check-in while you're at work or out of town, so your cat never goes without food, a clean litter box, or company. Your home is your sanctuary, and I treat it that way. I lock up, keep things tidy, and leave everything as I found it. If anything seems off, you'll hear from me right away. In clients homes, I will -follow any notes left for care and routine -feed, walk, and play according to their needs -keeps pets living area and play space tidy -monitor health and behaviors and report any changes to the owner -respect the home and clients privacy
About: I am experienced in caring for all sorts of animals; from your standard dogs and cats to lizards, birds, fish, and bunnies. Personally my own pets were a cat, salamander, fish and a dog. I recently adopted 2 kittens of my own and I live with other people who are able to care for them while I'm away loving on your pets. I also have experience with giving animals medication. I work a job during the day from 8am to 5pm, Monday through Friday, but am able to spend overnights with your animals as well as weekends or holidays (my family is local so I don't travel over holidays). I am available for dog walking, in-home/overnight care, or daily drop-in care. I want to make sure that the transition is as smooth as possible between my care and yours so I try to keep your pet's schedule as close to your current regimen as possible. I care for every animal as if they were my own and currently have no pets of my own which allows me to give all my attention to your furry friends. Before caring for your pets I love to get a little bit of a house tour to learn where you keep the food, treats, litterboxes, litter for the boxes, toys, etc. Additionally if you have your pet's vet information and/or list of nearby emergency pet clinics this is always appreciated information which I hope I never need to use but is good to keep on hand.
About: I've had pets since I was a child. My best friend and I would catch lizards and insects growing up. I've volunteered at my local shelter (in Florida), and I often visit shelters to give animals attention. Friends and coworkers know me for my love for animals and entrust me with their care when they are away for a work day or an extended period of time. LGBTQIA+ friendly Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I live and work full-time in downtown St. Paul with a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide care on workdays—whether that’s walks, check-ins, or some quality time. On weekends, I’m able to dedicate full days to pet care. I love going on neighborhood walks and outdoor excursions when the weather’s nice, and I’d be happy to have your fur baby join me. I always meet each pet where they’re at, whether they need lots of activity or a little extra emotional support. When caring for pets—whether in my home or a client’s—I focus on giving each animal the kind of attention and interaction that fits their personality. I’m happy to provide all the pets, cuddles, and playtime they want, but I always let them set the pace. I love playing fetch, being chased (or doing the chasing!), and I’m comfortable engaging in a bit of rough play with larger breeds when appropriate to help them burn off energy. I always respect an animal’s space and let them approach me first. With cats, for example, I’ll take things slowly and use gentle cues like slow blinking to help build trust. Whether your pet loves being a lap companion or just wants a calm presence nearby, I’m attentive to their needs and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in any environment.
“Abby was great!! My kitties are so shy and tend to hide from everyone, but they loved her! Even when they weren’t out and about she still made sure to locate them and take lots of pictures! Definitely recommend and will be using her again in the future :)”
“Percy was very communicative and flexible with our pick up & drop off times! The cats were very content after their stay - we would definitely book with Percy again.”
“She did a wonderful job with my guinea pigs. She went above and beyond to make sure they were well taken care of when I was gone. I was nervous about leaving them for an extended period of time as they are older guineas pigs, but she did better than I could have expected. I would highly recommend”
“Ally has been an amazing friend to my cat while I'm away. She's attentive to his needs as well as mine in needing daily updates. Ally is also very thoughtful in her communication and commitment.”
“Lance was super friendly and when I booked for 3 drop-ins, I seriously only expected to see my cat hiding the whole time.....but to my surprise, on the third day, my timid boy came out of hiding for some pets, purring the whole time! I was ecstatic to hear that, since Apollo is slow to warm up to new people!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats including watching multiple animals at once. I have a pet cat Alice who I’ve had for 3 years. I’m currently available anytime throughout the week and weekends except for Wednesday evenings after 5 pm and Sundays before noon. My availability is very flexible! My goal as a pet sitter is to care for your pet just as you do. I know all animals have their own personalities and quirks and I am happy to meet all needs!
About: I have taken care of various types of dogs for a number of years for friends and family as well as having worked at a doggy daycare and resort for 4 years. I am Pet CPR certified and I have had the opportunity to get to care for all kinds of dogs: big, small, young, and old. I do have experience caring for reactive dogs, and I know how to take care of dogs with most temperaments! I also have some limited training and experience with bathing, grooming, training, and injury care. I am a full time physical therapist, but my schedule is very flexible. I am available most days for drop in visits , dog walks, and overnights. Boarding on the weekends also available! I will make sure your pups and kitties get all the love they need and more! I am a very active person and love getting to take pups on long walks and going on runs! I love getting creative and finding different ways to provide enrichment activities for pets as well. I am pet CPR certified and I have some training handling pet injuries.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Saint Paul
Michelle was so lovely and I felt like Crash was truly left in wonderful hands. She did amazing with updating me and just keeping me in the loop as well as doing everything in my google.doc to ensure Crash needs were met. Crash felt really safe and seemed to really enjoy her company. I know the next time I go on a trip, i will definitely be rebooking with her.
So, I just was so thankful for Rover, and for Danielle. Asking neighbors is difficult, because they have their own lives to live. One time I had to make arrangements with 4 different neighbors / friends to cover a one-month absence. Rover completely relieves that anxiety for me. I specifically liked Danielle a lot. I tend to be wordy, but I appreciate pithiness in others. Danielle was just right. Gave me nice updates, frequently just photos, but with a word or two of commentary occasionally. One thing that especially impressed me: when I introduced Danielle to our condo association manager, Danielle, on her own initiative, said "Do you want to see identification," and began digging into her bag for something. Martha said, yes, please. Danielle showed her a driver license (I presumed). That seemed professional and reassuring to me. Danielle left my place as clean or cleaner than when I had left 23 days previously. She was just real nice and competent and professional, I thought. So, I am super-pleased with how well things went. I really did have peace of mind regarding my cat as I tried to negotiate trains, subways, skytrains, buses, boats, and taxis in Japan and Bangkok. And that was worth a lot to me.
Michaela took wonderful care of my cat Finn for a week while I was away, and I couldn't have asked for a better sitter. She visited twice a day and sent excellent updates, so I always knew how Finn was doing. What stood out most was how much she genuinely cared about him. One day she noticed he wasn't eating, so she hand-fed him, and he finished his whole meal like a champ. She even offered to pick up extra medication for him if he needed it. When I had to add a visit at the last minute, she was incredibly accommodating and made it easy. I'm so glad I found her, and I'll definitely be booking Michaela again. Highly recommend!
We can't say enough good things about Amanda. Our cat gets very anxious whenever we travel, so leaving him is always stressful for us too. Amanda made it easy. She was incredibly communicative, sent regular updates, and clearly cared about making our cat comfortable. It was a huge relief to know he was in such good hands. We'll definitely be booking Amanda again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable pet sitter!
Michelle took fantastic care of our two dogs and a cat! She came over to meet our animals she’d of time and review their needs and care. She was great with all The animals and her care shone through! She was on time, communication was ongoing throughout our trip and we chatted about any updates and any issues while we were away! Fully recommend and we will have Michelle watch our animals again!
Shayla did an excellent job taking care of our 3 cats! They are all senior cats with three different foods for each of their special needs and medications for one of them. Fresh water was in their bowls, litter boxes were cleaned, mail brought in & plants watered. We will definately request Shayla again for our next time away!
Sara took wonderful care of our cat who can be quite shy. We came home to a happy kitty. Communication was great with daily photos, some even included the elusive cat. Sara even took care of putting peanuts out for the blue jays in our feeder. Highly recommend Sara and would gladly rebook.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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 .
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.
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 .

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.

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.
