About: I have owned/raised 4 dogs in my lifetime. I currently have 2 dogs living with my roommates and I. I have spent weekends and weeks in homes taking care of dogs before. I have experience with old, young, sick and abused dogs. I currently am a second year Pre-Veterinary Technician at Cal Poly Pomona. I have taken the necessary labs involved in handling a wide variety of animals such as cats, dogs, rabbits, birds and horses. I currently work from home and have a generally flexible schedule depending on how many meetings I have during the day. Pet care is second nature to me as I have 3 pets of my own! I ensure to keep my pets calm, safe and feeling secure. Lots of walks, training and enrichment are a must to keep their brains and bodies active. Lots of pets and snuggles are always a guarantee.
“Jada did an excellent job with handling Wizard! He’s typically a bit apprehensive when it comes to dealing with new people, but she was able to quickly calm his nerves. She was ulta communicative as well throughout the process, which my wife and I greatly appreciated. We will be coming back to Jada with our future needs!”
“Gina went above and beyond while taking care of Hobbes. He wasn't feeling well, and she notified us right away and was willing to do whatever we needed to help het him better. I appreciated how regularly she communicated with us and the sweet pics we received while traveling.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, iguanas, peacocks, and more for over 30 years! As a lifelong animal lover I followed a pre-veterinary path in school and have experience with various animals including many special needs and senior pets of my own. I’m well-versed in pilling dogs & cats, subcutaneous injections, inhaler use for dogs & cats, and basic first aid. I’m familiar with difficult dogs (I’ve been trained well by my 15yo Shiba Inu!), and pets with unique behavioral needs. I’m happy to treat your pet with the love & care they deserve so you can rest easy while you’re away for work or play! I’m currently taking online courses part-time, and my sweet senior pup recently passed, so my schedule is flexible. I have the time and energy needed to ensure your pets get the stimulation and care they deserve even when their human is away :) I’m dedicated to creating a safe and comfortable environment for your pet. I have the patience needed to ensure they feel relaxed and cared for.
About: I grew up on a dairy farm, and have been around many different animals over the years. I started out pet sitting for friends of family members, and families in my local community in my spare time. I have also taken care of a few senior pets over the years by making sure they get their right medications and foods throughout my stay. I also help take care of farm animals, outdoor bird feeders, along with indoor and outdoor plant watering and care. I currently have two cats, Scooter and Goose and they are my world. I am currently working about 20-25 hours a week. My current job is very flexible with hours and time that would allow me to stop in a care for your pets. I am available to do a few days, with the possibility of extending that period of time. I would be able to stop in and care for your pets before I head to work for the day (roughly 4 to 8 hours regularly, but can be flexible) and again after I am done with work for the day before engaging in any activities or turning in for the evening. I am open to stopping in daily and caring for you pets in your home as I dont have much space while I am currently living in the city with roommates and multiple pets in our household. If your pet has a favorite park, or yard to play in, I would be happy to engage in their favorite activities hwith them in those places.
About: Hi! I’m Mags! 🐾 I’m looking for my wags’ Nurse 👩🏼⚕️ by day and an outdoor lover on my days off. I love walking, getting fresh air, and spending time with dogs. While I’m still growing my experience, I’ve enjoyed dog-sitting/walking for friends & family. I’m honest, dependable, and caring! Looking forward to meeting my new walking buddy 🐾 🐶 My days off are flexible and allow me plenty of time to enjoy walks & spend time with your pup! I am happy to coordinate a schedule or figure out something last minute to provide what is best needed for you & your pup! I live in an apartment that doesn’t allow me to host dogs, so I provide care in your home or take your pup on walks I’ll always respect your home, follow your instructions and routines, and make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for.
“Sharron does a great job and communicates well with us on schedule adjustments. Fiona my Goodendoodle waits at the door for her to pull up to the house and is excited to see her every walk.”
About: I started dog sitting for neighbors in grade school. I love animals and have been a pet owner most of my life. I miss having pets and would love to help you when needed take care of yours! I work full-time from home in Lowertown Saint Paul. 90% of the people in my building have pets, I do not but I love them. Mears Park is right across the street and that is where people take their pets for bathroom breaks. With my job I am able to take breaks whenever needed so caring for your pet is easy for me and my schedule. Rover Guidelines based on previous rover boarding experiences: I will only board dogs that are fully potty trained. I live in an apartment building with lots of other dogs. If your dog is not dog friendly and shows aggressive behavior towards other dogs, you will be asked to pick up your dog. There are many shared spaces in my building including elevators and stairways and the dog park across the street, I cannot have an aggressive dog in my building. If your dog barks regularly, I will not be able to accept booking. I have neighbors and I’d like to be respectful. I want to take care of well behaved dogs. When taking care of your furry family member, I am home w them almost 100% of the time and will bring your pup with on errands (if the dog is ok w the car).

“Sarah did another great job walking Isabella today. Isa was so excited for her arrival and was happy and ready to rest afterwards. We look forward to continuing to have Sarah care for Isa!”
“Kristine does a great job with my dog. He can be stubborn or get scared on walks and want to go home. If that is the case she will stay and play with him in the backyard. But she also gets creative and communicates with me on strategies to get him to walk and it has worked. Overall great communication and very timely. Would recommend her to walk or care for your dog.”
“Michelle did an amazing job with Daisy. Very timely with communication in the booking process. Very impressed and will be the first place we look when we have walking needs!”
About: Growing up in a house of animals, and having a small zoo of my own (2 dogs and 2 cats), I have a lot of experience taking care of animals. I have dog and cat sat for friends for years. I am currently available for Drop ins and Walks. I try to spend a bare minimum of 15 minutes with any drop in to make sure they get all the attention that they need. As the owner of a 15 lb dog and a 80 lb dog, I understand that all Walks aren't created equal. My Walks always vary based off of the needs of the dog. I am also an avid cat lover. I am more than happy to stop by and feed, clean the litter box, and snuggle/play with your feline friends. Currently I work full time on the West side of the cities, but I have Sundays and Mondays off to help with your animal needs. My hope is to expand my availability over time. My current weekend lines up with some weekdays. I spend most of those days out and about, so I'd love to check in on some cute animal while I am at it! Slow and steady is always best. I am a believer in letting animals come to you. I have experience with a kennel trained and unkennel trained dogs. As the owner of a 15 lb dog and a 80 lb dog, I am experienced in walking all sizes of dogs.
About: I’ve always been such a dog person! I got my first dog when I was 12 and have dog sat and walked dogs over the years! I lived with my previous partners cats for a year and a half and now have 3 cats of my own and can’t imagine life without them! I am mostly available in the evenings during the week and during the day on the weekends! My work schedule times can vary so some days I may be more or less available than others. I do start school in the fall as well, so Wednesdays and Thursdays I will be off work and will be free to care for your fur babies after class! I will always care for pets in clients homes as if they were my own fur babies! They will always have my attention and be in the best care!
About: I’ve loved dogs since I was a kid. In middle school, I began taking care of family & friends’ dogs. I love spending quality time with dogs, getting to know their unique personalities, and honoring their needs. I am also an experienced dog groomer who values building a bond of trust with pets and their families. I am a full-time student from September-May. I work part-time during the summer, so I generally have more time to spend with your pet throughout the week. I play organ and sing at various churches every weekend, which occupies my Saturday evenings & Sunday mornings. I also practice music every weekday morning. My home does not allow for pets, so I will be happy to stay in your home and take care of your dog in the environment they know best.
“Robert is absolutely amazing! It has made a huge difference in me and my dogs lives and training. I am super busy, but he is great with working around my schedule and leaving detailed reviews/updates for me to review later. I have a hard time trusting people with my baby but his incredible growth has helped me immensely.”
About: I’ve shared my life with dogs at every stage, from playful puppies to beloved seniors. I’ve cared for senior dogs through mobility challenges, including taking my senior dog to aqua therapy and learning how to safely help my Boxer-Lab mix navigate stairs with arthritis. My Shih Tzu eventually experienced both blindness and significant hearing loss, but that never dampened their zest for life. Those experiences taught me to be patient, observant, and attentive to each dog’s individual needs and abilities. As for what I enjoy most? It’s a tie between walking dogs on a beautiful day and settling in for some serious snuggle time and belly rubs. And yes—pooper scooping is absolutely no problem! I’m also comfortable administering medications when needed. Whether your dog is energetic, elderly, extra cuddly, or needs a little additional help getting around, I’m happy to meet them where they are and give them the care, patience, and affection they deserve. I currently work part-time Monday through Friday, as an AmeriCorps volunteer reading tutor, which gives me the flexibility to devote time to something else I truly love—animals! Potty breaks or walks every 2–4 hours are no problem, and I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine and needs. Plus, walking your dog gives me a great excuse to get some exercise myself! I’m also available for weekend house sitting with your pet, including stays that begin Friday and extend through Monday. My flexible schedule allows me to make pet care a meaningful part of my life—and I wouldn’t have it any other way! I believe pets are happiest and most comfortable in their own familiar surroundings, so I’m happy to care for them in their home. I respect your home, your routines, and—most importantly—your wishes for your pet’s care. I carefully follow your instructions so your pet’s schedule stays as consistent and comfortable as possible while you’re away. My approach is gentle, patient, and attentive. I take the time to get to know each pet and let them set the pace, whether they want a walk, playtime, companionship, or simply a quiet presence. I also believe that caring for your pet means caring for your home. I’m tidy and respectful, and I will leave your home as I found it—or a little cleaner. My goal is for you to come home knowing your pet was loved and well cared for, and that your home was treated with the same respect I would want for my own.

Jada did an excellent job with handling Wizard! He’s typically a bit apprehensive when it comes to dealing with new people, but she was able to quickly calm his nerves. She was ulta communicative as well throughout the process, which my wife and I greatly appreciated. We will be coming back to Jada with our future needs!
As always, Jill goes above and beyond when she cares or our dogs. We had an early morning event to attend, so we fed the dogs and arranged with Jill to come and give them a walk around 8:00. She did that, played fetch with our younger dog and did a little cleanup on our older dog's rear. She also takes great pictures of them while she's caring for them, which always make us smile. She's the best!
Reliable and generous,ensured my dog was walked with plenty of play time every day even in rainy weather. My energetic mini labradoodle was excited to see Jae H when he arrived for walks. Responsive communication . Clear commitment. Daily photos and reports. Jae H noticed and reported on a bug bite. Flexible when I had to change dates. I will definitely rebook, given the opportunity.
Sarah did an excellent job walking Hazel while our family was out of town. She was on time, friendly and great with an energetic lab. She paid special attention when we let her know that Hazel gets anxious while around other dogs and on a leash, and came up with some tricks to ease her anxiety. We’d absolutely recommend Sarah to anyone needing a dog walker!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Walking in Saint Paul is $21 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $31 per walk. On Rover, walkers 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 November 2026, there are 5,475 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Saint Paul. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in Saint Paul. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route, the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.
The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Saint Paul after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.
Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the walk begins.
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 walker 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.
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Saint Paul. On Rover:
- 88% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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 walker 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 walker 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 walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
walkers 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 walker.
