About: Hello, my name is Eryn I’ve taken care of pets since I was 10 year old watching neighbors dogs, pet sitting cats. We as a family fostered animals for 9 years and had over 50 dogs and cats come through us . We have a fully fenced yard . Our family will love your pet as our own. We have a 5 year old , 8 year old and 16 year old. They all are wonderful with all animals. I currently work 2 days a week at home but I only work until 1 pm other days and home by 130. My husband doesn’t leave until later so just 3 days a week the pets would only be alone for 4 hours a few days a week. I have a fully fenced yard, We love to go on walks we allow animals on furniture unless you do not want your pet to do that. My 16 year old walks dogs for people so would love to bring on various of walks.

About: I’ve had dogs as pets since I was 6 years old. I’ve had German Shepards, Pugs, Labs, Boxers, puggles and mixed breeds. I love all dogs~ and am currently dog free. I will care for yours as I would my own- like children. 🥰. I’ve had a long career in Human Resources, and with that comes great responsibility, trust and integrity. I have clean background- not even a parking ticket. I enjoy playing with dogs, petting them (maybe some smooches as evidenced in my photos) and giving plenty of love and attention. I can walk dogs, feed them, give medicine, throw a few balls - whatever their favorite activity is just let me know! I have had special needs dogs as well- so special circumstances are not a problem. Thanks!

“As my first experience Rover, I am thankful I found Laura. She agreed to do a quick meet and greet with my two kitties before hand as we had had some behavioral issues in the past and I wanted to make sure it was a good fit. She was accommodating to our schedule and the pictures she sent of their playtime during her drop in visits showed us that they were well cared for. I will definitely be using her services in the future.”

I have a cat where I live full time I feed him, play with him, and clean the litter box as needed When he has needed meds i give them to him without trouble When I had dogs in the past I had experience grooming them, walking them, picking up after them, and giving them medications as they got older

About: I grew up around dogs both big and small, cats, and many other furry friends in the house and loved every one of them; I also had the privilege of spending additional time around animals with both my parents being veterinarians. I've house sat for friends and family, walked, and simply loved on many more animals over the years. At this time, I no longer have any pets of my own but adore my parents cat and would love to love on your animals! I am currently working part-time so have a good amount of flexibility and time to love on your sweet pets, whether thats housesitting, walking, or running over to love on them in the afternoon. Your pet is my priority whenever I am with it, whether that is walking or housesitting, and I strive I to give them my best care.

About: Hi! My names Priscilla and I’m looking for some extra cash while doing something I love. I’ve been walking dogs for a bit and otherwise have spent my entire life around all types of creatures from fish to guinea pigs to horses! My dear childhood cat, Swiper, passed January 2025 after having him for 14ish years (since I was three!) He was an orange cat (if you know you know 😅) and we had many other cats when I was growing up. We’ve had my dog for eight years, since he was a puppy! Chubbs is a very energetic, quirky Dudley Lab who has given me TONS of walking experience. From both him and other dogs, I have much experience with large, high-energy pullers with many triggers and quirks. My number one priority is making your furry friend feel safe, cared for, and loved, and I can easily adapt to any pets needs—I’ve been around animals with all types of triggers and quirks, from puppies and kittens to seniors. I truly hold so much love for animals and whether it’s giving your dog a good walk, checking on your babies or keeping them company while you’re away I’d be honored to care for your furry friend! 💗 I just finished high school a few months ago and am taking a gap year while I figure out what I want to do, and I’m currently not working so my availability is wide open! I’m pretty much always available and looking for last minute walks or drop in’s. Shoot me a message and I’m sure we can work something out! Safety is my number one priority, for both me and your furry friend! Please let me know if your fur baby has any special needs, triggers, quirks, allergies, or dietary needs. I can easily accommodate to different pets needs and circumstances to make the entire experience (whether walks/sitting) safer and easier for them!

“Lacie went above and beyond caring for our dog while we were away! She is a fantastic communicator which really put our minds at ease while we were out of town. We really appreciate her kindness and generosity for our dog, and we could tell he was incredibly well cared for while we were gone. We could not recommend her service enough! Thank you!!”

About: I have always been an animal lover. I enjoy being outside and getting exercise, and love four-legged companions to keep me going! I am patient and kind. I have worked at a vet clinic for 9 years. I am consistent and reliable. I have reliable transportation. I can cater to each dog and cat based on their needs, wants, age, limitations, etc. I have yet to find an animal I don't love, and enjoy helping others and keeping costs low. I know boarding can get expensive, so hopefully I can alleviate some of the financial strain while keeping your pet happy! Recent grad from the college of veterinary medicine at the university of Minnesota. I have worked at the vet clinic at the U for 9 years and volunteer and foster for a rescue that takes in senior cases. I am generally unavailable 8a-6p Tuesday through Friday (excluding holidays). I will follow any and all rules to keep your pet happy and healthy. I can walk pets on a leash, observe in a fenced in area, or play inside.

About: I have had animals in my household my whole life. I have had both cats and dogs since I was a young child, so I know the love and care that goes into providing a great environment for your furry friend! I am very patient and understanding and will give unconditional love to any cat or dog! I live in a nice neighborhood so I would like to take dogs for walks multiple times a day or play in my big backyard with them! I am a teacher in White Bear, and I would be able to take your dog for a walk before and after school to make sure they are able to get their energy out! I currently do not have any other pets in my home so all of my care an attention will go into caring for your pet. My apartment has a big back yard for dogs to run around and play in, and a quiet neighborhood to go for walks. I am also close to many parks where I could bring a dog to play or walk!

About: I have owned pets my entire life. I have had a wide range of different animals of different sizes. I have experience with reactive dogs and training them. I also help with my roommate who fosters dogs. I am a full-time law student, so school is my priority. I go to school in Minneapolis 5 days a week from 8 AM to 3 PM most days. After school, I typically reserve that time for studying, so I would love to be able to spend time with pets while I do that. I currently live with a roommate, so I cannot accommodate pets at my residence. Willing to come to wherever needed and be flexible with scheduling

About: I've taken care of different animals ranging from small animals like fish, turtle, and rabbit to a menagerie like horse and goat. I had a senior diabetic dog with night urination issue and other health issues so I am very familiar with caring for animals with medical needs. I am familiar with different tricks how to establish a strong relationship with the new animals. I have been using a different pet sitting platform for the past year, and have over 20 reviews, averaging around 4 stars. I can guarantee you that your animals will be in good hands if they are under my care. I work full time as a therapist and it is a hybrid job so I can work around the schedule to ensure that the pets get appropriate care. I plan to care one or two pets at a time as long as I can provide equal attention for any pets that I am sitting at the time. They will be pampered and cared just like my dog.

“Will took excellent care of our dogs. He made sure to check on them, give them ample play time, and ensure they had water. We have two English Mastiffs, one of whom is young, so we really appreciate having someone who is confident with large, adolescent dogs. On top of it all, he’s an excellent photographer and took a lot of great photos! We are excited to use his services again in the future and would highly recommend him to others.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 10 years old whether it was helping the neighbors, family friends, or watching my own while my parents were out of town! I’m a huge lover of animals and understand they are a huge part of everyone’s family. I currently live with a dog and a cat so I have experience with both. I also have two family dogs! Ava is a German shepherd/Aussie and Wippy is a chocolate lab. A little bit about me- I decided to join this app to make some extra money on the side. My normal job is working as an assistant director at a tutoring company. I graduated from the UMN with a degree in psychology and am currently in OT school at the U. I can’t wait to meet you and of course your fur babies 😊 I currently work from home for my main job. I will be starting clinical in September for OT school that will be about 7-3pm M-F in Minnetonka I cannot have dogs in my home due to my lease. However, my parents allow me to watch dogs at their home that has a huge fenced in yard! They do not currently have other pets but love all animals. When watching the dog at your home, whether you’re in a fenced in home or apartment I am willing to adapt to that environment and give your animals the exercise, love, and attention they need.

About: I've been an animal person for as long as I can remember! I've had animals in my life for all 40 years and have spent over 20 years working full-time in veterinary medicine as a licensed veterinary technician. I currently work in zoo medicine, which is truly a dream come true for me! My professional experience includes caring for animals of all species, from routine wellness and preventative care to complex medical cases requiring intensive, ICU-level care. I'm comfortable administering medications, monitoring medical conditions, and recognizing when something isn't right. While my professional background is in veterinary medicine, caring for animals has always been much more than a job to me. I genuinely love getting to know their individual personalities, making them feel comfortable, and giving them the same attention and affection I give my own pets. I have a soft spot for cats, but truly enjoy working with animals of all kinds, regardless of age, special needs, and species. :) I work Monday–Friday at the zoo from 8:00–4:30, so my availability is primarily outside of those hours and on weekends. I also have a 50/50 parenting schedule, with my kids on some weekday evenings after 6:00 and every other weekend. I'm happy to work with you to find a schedule that meets your pet's needs. My children will not be present during pet-sitting visits unless you are comfortable with and specifically request that arrangement. I'm very mindful of my commitments and will only accept a booking if I know I can give your pets the time, attention, and care they deserve. Reliability is really important to me, and I want you to feel confident that your pets are in good hands! I prefer caring for pets in their own homes, where they can stay comfortable and stick to their normal routines while their owners are away. I'm also happy to discuss special arrangements depending on your pet's needs. I love getting outside with dogs and am always up for a fun field trip to explore a new park or go for a special walk! As a certified veterinary technician with extensive animal care experience, safety and well-being are always priorities for me. I'm comfortable administering medications, following specific care instructions, and keeping an eye out for any changes in behavior or health. I treat every home with respect, keep pets' environments safe and clean, and believe communication is important. I'll happily send updates and pictures so you can have peace of mind knowing your pets are in good hands!

Cari did a great job during a drop in with Honey! She was able to let her out twice and get her to take her meds even though she is anxious and wary of people coming into the house. Cari is a great communicator too! I would definitely recommend her and plan to use her again.

FAQs for Dog Sitting - Shoreview

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Shoreview is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $15 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 November 2026, there are 5,669 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Shoreview. 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.

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 Shoreview 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 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.

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 Shoreview 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 Shoreview. On Rover:

  • 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% 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.

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.
