About: I’m a calm, nurturing, and reliable pet sitter who genuinely enjoys caring for animals of all kinds. I grew up with pets and currently have both a cat and a dog, so I understand how important it is to leave your pets with someone you trust! Friends and family have relied on me to watch their pets, and I’m known for being patient, attentive, and easygoing—especially with animals who may be a little shy or anxious. I take the time to make sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. I also love going on walks and making sure pets get the attention, exercise, and routine they’re used to. Whether it’s playtime, feeding, or just keeping them company, I treat every pet like my own. My goal is to give you peace of mind while you’re away, knowing your pets are in calm, caring hands! I work in healthcare and I'm free after 5pm most days with a day off during the week, and weekends I'm pretty free for check ins, walks, and whatever else you need! In a client’s home, I do my best to maintain your pet’s normal schedule with feeding, walks, playtime, and any specific care instructions you provide. I make sure they get plenty of attention and companionship, while also respecting your home and keeping everything clean and tidy! I also enjoy going on walks and making sure dogs get the exercise and enrichment they need. Overall, I treat every pet like my own and aim to provide dependable, loving care so you can feel completely at ease while you’re away!
About: A bunny, a hamster, an impressively sized fish tank, a whole litter of puppies, a herd of baby goats, an adorable kitty, a blue heeler puppy. These are all animals I have either owned or taken care of in my life. I have always loved animals. I grew up helping on my family’s farm, so I have knowledge on a vast array of animals. I currently have a Blue Heeler mix named Ozzy, who I take on long walks and train every day. And a sassy Tortie named Mavis, who requires at least 30 minutes of couch cuddling before bed every night. I am very adaptable. I can go for runs with your high energy friends, or curl up and read with your cuddliest companions! I am recently engaged, looking to save money for my upcoming wedding in June 2028 Currently working full time, but I have a very flexible schedule and can come check in on your furry friends often! Looking to fill my weekends, as well as my mornings and evenings when I’m not working. I will love your pet as if it’s my own because I understand pets are more than just pets, they’re family. I cannot offer boarding services at the moment, but anything else you need I am willing to offer! Just message me with whatever your lovable companions might need, and I will do my best to make it happen!
About: I've had a love for dogs and all animals since I was very young and would love the opportunity to meet your pets and spend time with them! I'm currently working part time and can be available every day of the week and weekend, so no matter when you need help I'll be ready to assist with your furry family members! I keep pets on their normal routine, having safety come first, and sending photos/updates so you never have to wonder how things are going. For house sitting and drop-ins, I follow the instructions given closely and treat your home with like I would my own. On walks, I'm attentive to leash handling, weather, and each dog's mood. For day care, I keep a close eye on playtime so everyone's safe and having fun!
“We have been taking our large doodle to Amber since we moved to South Dakota from out of town. Our pup always comes home exhausted, a certain sign at a good time! We love Amber and her family, they treat our dog like he’s theirs. Thank you so much Amber! See you next time!”

About: Hi! I'm a lifelong dog lover who's been around big dogs my entire life, so I'm comfortable with pups of all sizes and personalities. I genuinely love spending time with dogs—whether that means long walks, playtime, or giving lots of belly rubs and attention. As a nurse, I'm dependable, attentive, and always put safety first. I'll care for your pup like they're my own and make sure they have a fun, happy, and stress free experience! 🐾🤍 I’m a full time nurse but am free 4/7 days of the week! Love taking care of all dogs !! Used to random hours (early or late) so whenever needed! For everyone's safety and comfort, I provide care in your home and neighborhood rather than my own. I'm happy to come to your home for walks, drop-in visits, and plenty of playtime, so your pup can stay comfortable in their familiar environment while receiving the attention and care they deserve. :)
About: Need a great dog sitter or dog walker? Look no further! Send me a message :). I’m willing to do long or short term dog sits in the comfort of your dog’s home. I’ve previously volunteered at animal rescue sanctuaries in Hawaii, Ireland, and the Philippines because I really have a passion for animals. Cats, dogs, horses, you name it- if it’s an animal, I love it haha. I’m currently living in Harrisburg, South Dakota and am looking forward to spending time with your precious pet(s)! I’ve taken care of dogs since I was about 5 years old. (I have a couple photos uploaded with dogs from I was a kid :) ) My grandma raised dogs so I happily helped out all the time and quickly grew to love dogs. I began my own dog grooming business which I did for a few years, and after that, I dog sat for friends and family. Recently I helped watch a farmers dogs for a month which included walking the 5 of them, feeding them, bathing them, and watering them. I dog sat two French Bulldogs for 2 weeks, everything went great and they loved their walks and bath time. One family actually flies me out to dog sit for them still (for 3 years) since me and their dog are besties and he is aggressive to new people. I’m happy to give you any contact numbers if you’d like to speak with any previous people I’ve dog sat for. I’m very responsible and pay attention to detail to ensure your dog is safe and happy in my care. Send me a message to talk about time/dates but I am pretty flexible :). I am not in school so I’ll have plenty of free time to spend with your dog/cat! What better job than playing with dogs/cats. In my clients home I will be considerate and follow your rules and preferences. I will keep the place tidy and clean and put things back where I found them, such as leash etc. . I’ve volunteered on animal rescue sanctuaries for months with 15+ other volunteers so I know how to be respectful and considerate of other people’s homes.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Sioux Falls
Thank you SO much for being there for my boy!!! He’s my best friend loves cuddles and hanging out at the house while mom works nights. He is so brave and I feel so much better when I’m working nights to have someone check on him. Thank you for being so helpful.
This is the first time we have had Jonathan take care of Brody! Everything seemed to go great. Jonathan arrived at our house on time, took Brody for walks, and threw his ball for him! One happy pup! We would not hesitate to request their services again! Thank you!
Renata and Rhonda were wonderful working out dogs while we left for a vacation. They were understanding and patient working with our Shepherds and did a fabulous job watching them for us. I know my pups are safe with both of them, and I recommend them without reservation.
If dogs could leave Yelp reviews, Braden and Grace would have a flawless 5-star rating. These two will drop what they’re doing at a moment’s notice to spoil your furry family member like royalty. Expect happy tails, extra treats, and your dog seriously considering whether it even wants you to come back!
This is our second time booking with Macy, and once again she went above and beyond for our dog. This visit was just a pop-in to break up the day while everyone was gone, and it worked out perfectly. It gives us so much peace of mind knowing our pup is in such good hands. We would absolutely book with her again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Sitting in Sioux Falls is $18 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $24 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 319 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Sioux Falls. 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 Sioux Falls 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 Sioux Falls with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
