“Khloe is so personable and easy to communicate with. My one dog is very suspicious of people and she loved her right away. She takes pics of my dogs when she watches them. I really appreciate her and would highly recommend her to anyone.”
“Ben did another amazing job caring for our pets while we were away. We even had a new addition to our home, a tripawd shepsky mix and Ben accommodated the third dog very well. All of our animals love Ben and he's so great in taking care of the e needs. Highly recommend Ben as a sitter.”
“Vanessa was a life saver! She was able to watch my pets last minute. She provided updates regularly and was transparent. Very respectful and left my home and pets in great order. I would love to have her watch my pets anytime. Thank you so much!”
“Crystal did a great job watching our 2 fur babies for 3 weeks. She sent us updates and pictures on a regular basis. When we walked in the door, they were happy and healthy. Thanks for taking good care of our kitty cats!”
“Suzuko was enjoyable to work with and did a great job watching our place and animals. It was fun to get pictorial updates each day and the house was pretty much as we left it on our return. Highly recommended!”
About: Hi! I’m a middle school teacher, mom to 4 busy kids, and dog mom to ‘Jersey’ our mixed rescue. My house is a welcoming home away from home for your pup. Now that my kids are a bit older, I have a lot of time to give to your pup in the summer and would treat them like my own. I LOVE getting outdoors and walking as much as my legs can allow. Summer break allows for our family of six to enjoy the neighborhood. I have the flexibility to be home daily. Although my children are in multiple activities, I am always close to home. I will be out and about quite often driving kids to different places, but are never gone for more than a few hours. I am able to leave and take your pup for a quick walk multiple times a day, or welcome them into our house over the course of a couple days. My house has a fenced in yard in a nice family neighborhood. Our dog has her base camp on our upper level den, but we have a safe and separate area for your pet in our lower level that will be all theirs! I will walk multiple times daily and care for your pet as my own. My family has lots of love and cuddles to give if needed, but if your pup is more of a recluse, they can adjust accordingly!
“It was our first time using the Rover App and Stacy was a great representative of the program! Stacy kept us up to date on our three pups and was wonderful to work with! Highly recommend!”
About: Hi there! I'm a lover of all pets, young and old, big and small. Throughout my life, I have taken care of multiple different species including dogs, cats, chickens, goats, and even hedgehogs! You name it! I believe animals leave unique paw prints on our hearts in their own special way and that's why they deserve the best. I have been working at Pine Grove Zoo as the Curator for over 7 years now and working with so many species has given me the ability to read animals in a unique way. I promise to treat every critter as if they are my own as long as you are okay with them being spoiled. My corgis and cat can definitely show you how fun of a time your pets will have while in my care. I am available Monday through Thursday, typically after 3:30 p.m. On Fridays, usually I am available any time of day. On the weekends, my time is flexible as long as an advance notice is given. I currently have a fenced in yard at my house so there is plenty of room to explore and have potty breaks. Our neighborhood is very dog friendly and we don't live on a busy street, so it is a wonderful area for walks. There is also a beautiful hiking trail that is only a short distance away and my dogs can testify for all the squirrels that are found there.
About: I’ve cared for dogs since I was a child and have a friend who is a vet if I have any questions that arise that I can’t readily answer. I can safely bath and administer medication if needed. My little dog is my whole world so yours will be too. I like to be able to provide piece of mind for people needing a sitter they can trust with a member of there family. It’s as important as if they were one of your children. I can crate your dog if you bring one. I live in a very secure property and work in the area so I am always close by.
“Mariah far exceeded our expectations as a pet sitter. The dogs absolutely loved her, and it was clear they were happy and well cared for the entire time. She kept our house clean, communicated consistently, and sent us pictures of the dogs every single day—which we truly appreciated. We had complete peace of mind while we were away. I highly recommend Mariah and would absolutely use her again.”
About: I grew up caring for animals and have been responsible for their daily needs from a young age. I currently have three cats of my own, so I’m very familiar with feeding schedules, litter box care, playtime, and recognizing behavior or health changes. I treat every pet with patience, love, and respect, and I understand how important it is for owners to feel confident their pets are safe and comfortable. I will care for your pets as if they were my own. I have a very flexible schedule this summer, so whenever you need me I got you! Pet care is part of my daily routine with my own cats.

I always prioritize your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine while caring for them in your home.

I respect your home, keep the environment clean and calm, and ensure doors and windows are secure at all times. I’m attentive to your pet’s behavior and will provide updates so you feel confident and at ease while you’re away.
About: I have over 30 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and ages. My love for animals started when I was young, walking dogs for neighbors and friends, and it quickly grew into a lifelong passion. As I got older, I volunteered at my local humane society and have continued providing trusted pet care for pets ever since. I have extensive experience working with dogs of all temperaments, including reactive dogs, dogs with separation anxiety, and dogs who may show aggressive behaviors. I’m patient, attentive, and always focused on creating a calm, safe, and positive environment for every dog in my care. In addition, I have experience with housebreaking as well as basic obedience training, and I’m happy to help reinforce routines and good habits during your pet’s stay. I have experience with house breaking and basic obedience training. I work part time from home which gives me a lot of flexibility to do what I’m most passionate about which is taking care of animals!
“Sierra is amazing! I have a lot of anxiety about who takes care of my two 80lb rescue pittie mixes (they’re my babies) and she was incredible with them! She constantly checked in which was exactly what I needed to calm my nerves. She has a background in veterinary medicine and it shows. She also made an effort to leave my home in the same shaped as when I left and clean up after my messy, big guys. Can’t thank her enough for making a stressful situation so easy. Hope to work with her again soon!”
About: I bring two years of vet tech schooling and a genuine love for dogs and cats, offering safe, attentive, knowledgeable care that keeps every pet relaxed and happy. I'm currently working part time so I have lots of free time to care for your furry loved ones. My availability is pretty flexible for the summer :) I have a fenced in yard and 1 dog who is friendly and crate trained. I’m attentive to noise, stimulation, and comfort, especially for pets who may be anxious in new environments.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Sartell
Julianna was wonderful to work with from the first time I reached out to her. She is very responsible and caring and took great care of our dog, even getting her comfortable to hang out with her, which she is usually hesitant to do. We appreciated her so much and hope to use her services again in the future.
Paige is truly wonderful! Great communication with me. She came extremely last minute when I needed to deal with a family emergency and graciously cared for them an extra day. I don't know what I would have done without her! Lots of pictures to reassure me that my fur babies were being well taken care of. What a blessing!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Sartell on Rover is $61.05 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 98 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Sartell. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Sartell 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 Sartell 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.
Tip: 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 Sartell 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 Rover Guarantee , 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
