About: Pet sitter with over a decade of experience. I currently specialize in pets with special needs: 🦴 Seniors 🦴 Deaf/blind 🦴 Rescues/Trauma informed care 🦴 Medication administration Formerly an early childcare director, so the safety & well being of your loved ones is my top priority. I am big on communication and enjoy sending updates, photos and videos while caring for fur babies. I work a very flexible job that allows me to be in and out of the house each day. Communication is paramount for me - prior to beginning services I will get to know you and your pet(s), and we will discuss your priorities and expectations to ensure a positive experience for your fur baby. At this time I am only offering services at clients’ homes. I have several references available for your peace of mind. I enjoy sending multiple detailed updates throughout the day, with pictures or videos as well! Comfortable administering medication and providing puppy, kitten, or senior pet care.

About: Hi friends! My name is Robin, I’m 29, and I’m an artist living in northeast Minneapolis currently working in the service industry. While I don’t have any pets of my own, I am my community’s right-hand-gal when it comes to pet care. I also spend my free time often reading and consuming content about dog training and working with reactive pups. It is important to me that my presence is known by the animals in my life to be calm and joyful and consistent. I’ve got lots of attention to give and lots of patience - looking to overflow back into the families around me through helping care and tend to their pets. I am most familiar with having small dogs be a part of my family but have built my pet experience recipe to the brim with dogs of all sizes and ages as well as playful & shy cats and kittens. Don’t let the “gap in my resume” fool you - I’ve been servicing families in my area consistently (they just text me the old fashioned way ;)). I am currently in-between jobs so I have more open availability than normal. I currently have a standing commitment Wed-Friday 1pm-3pm, but that is my only limitation at this time. I am located in NE Minneapolis. I like to simulate what a normal day might look like for them while adapting to their particular needs surrounding getting to know a new friend (me!). I pride myself in being able to match the energy of animals and display to them that my job is to make sure they’re safe and I do not need to be in their physical space when they don’t want it. I love cuddling up with a lil silly sleepy pal but I won’t even be putting my hands on them regularly until/unless it is absolutely clear that they’re ready and wanting attention from me like that.

“Claire has been wonderful helping out our dog Mabel with walks while we’re at work! She’s very communicative, works with our schedule, and our dog loves her!”

About: With 11 years of hands-on experience caring for both my own pets and others’, I specialize in cats and dogs — I know how to read their body language, keep them comfortable, and stick to their routines. Since I work from home, your pet gets consistent attention throughout the day, not just quick check-ins. And because I don’t have other pets in my home, your pet gets my full, undivided attention — no competing for space, food, or affection with a resident animal. Pet care fits naturally into my everyday life, not just around it. My work is flexible, so I’m either home or able to come back frequently throughout the day — your pet won’t be left alone for long stretches. I’m available all seven days of the week, so there’s no gap in coverage between weekdays and weekends. Boarding • Your pet stays in my home with no other pets competing for attention. I keep feeding and routines on schedule, and since I work from home, someone’s around for most of the day. Drop-ins • I follow whatever routine you’ve set — feeding, medication, fresh water, litter box or potty breaks, and playtime — with a photo update after each visit. Walks • One walk a day, paced to your pet’s comfort level, on-leash and supervised the whole time. I pay close attention to their cues, especially with cats and small-to-medium dogs, where I have the most hands-on experience. House-sitting • I usually do NOT stay at clients homes overnight or for extended periods during the day! • I will check in with your pets in the AM/PM (as needed) and follow their routines so their schedule is consistent, and provide photos throughout the stay. *Every visit ends with a photo, so you always know your pet is happy and cared for.

About: I’ve been a dog owner for 6 years and a Dog Person for over 3 decades! Throughout my life, family, friends, and neighbors have all trusted me to care for their pets, including the dogs I grew up with. From check-ins and playtime to walks and feeding, I’ve done it all. I’ve even been asked to chauffeur a friend’s dog for their wedding! I bring enthusiasm and playfulness to every interaction but prioritize comfort and safety. I want you and your pet to feel seen and secure. And that’s exactly how I care for my own fur baby, Rufus! As the proud mom of a rescue dog with lots of dog pals, I know firsthand that each pet has unique needs, and I lead with that empathy. I can’t wait to show your dog(s) some love! Cue “The Puppy Song” by Harry Nilsson… I'm currently working part-time and am excited to spend some quality time with your pups! I’m available for drop-ins, playtime, and walks on weekdays from 11am - 3pm. I’d love to work with you and your pet to figure out a rhythm of care that fits your needs, but I’m flexible too! Trust and safety are top priorities for me! My own dog's a "runner" so I take extra care when securing doors, gates, leashes, crates, etc. Before I start spending time with your pup, I'll make sure I fully understand your environment and expectations.

About: Outside of my own animals, i’ve taken care of animals in both a family friend setting and a professional setting! Here to make your furry friends comfortable! I’m currently a student at the University of Minnesota studying animal science! So pet visits/walks give me an excuse to take a study break, while also making time to do something i love! My schedule will stay updated in my profile! Making sure the animal is comfortable is my number one priority! Ensuring they keep up with their daily routine, whatever it may be, is important to me! And of course giving them lots of love!

About: I have had my own dog since I was 4. I also have been a dog sitter for many of my neighbors for years. I have experience with frequent visits during the day and overnight sitting. I’ve also had experience with special conditions such as giving medication and caring for pets who are ill. For example, my dog needs ear drops and allergy medication, so I have experience with those types of medication specifically. I also have experience cat sitting and caring for other pets, like small rodents or snakes. Currently I am working full time, hybrid, with two days in the office. I’m available for visits during the mornings and afternoons/nights during the week or weekend. I will be more available during the holiday season as well and can sit for an extended period of time if you are on vacation. I have a cat at home so I cannot provide home services, but I am available for house sitting! I have done many extended stays and have the luxury of working from home, so if your pet needs to stick to their schedule, I can be there.

“Shawntil is a gem. So happy when she drops in to take care of my 3 pups. 💗”

About: *IMMEDIATE AVAILABILITY* --I offer short-term & extended stays, and daily drop-ins for cats and small dogs-- *20 years experience *Senior Cat Care, can administer oral meds via syringe [In process of earning Red Cross Pet First Aid/CPR certification] Cat owner since childhood, cat sitter since high school, and cat lover since birth. I have 20 years of experience caring for my own kitty companions along with pet and house-sitting for others. [DOGS: While I've primarily focused on those of the feline persuasion, I do have some experience dog-sitting and can accommodate small, even-tempered dogs for drop-ins, walks, and extended stays.] I've coaxed food, detangled mats, successfully snuck oral syringes, clipped claws, combed out fleas, popped pills, decoded morose meows, wiped butts, and scooped a whole lot of poop. I am well-versed in the subtleties of cat body language and highly perceptive of any small changes that might indicate illness or distress. I have experience caring for elderly cats with health issues including gastrointestinal, kidney disease, frequent UTIs, and respitory changes. I also have experience caring for cats who love to munch on plastic bags, leap into open fridges, sneeze in my face, and choose scraps of paper and cardboard boxes over premium catnip mice and luxury cat sofas. I'm responsible and dependable with a clean background check and driving record, own reliable transportation, and currently have few commitments and a very open schedule so frankly I would love nothing more than to get your mail, water your plants, and cuddle your cats (or dogs!) Available for full day and overnight stays or daily drop-ins and will happily provide detailed updates and photos. [Now offering separate dog walking!] I look forward to getting to know your closest companions and honoring their unique needs, and I promise they will love every meow-ment with me! (And I have a feline I will too) **IMMEDIATE AVAILABILITY** I accept as little as one-day prior reservations so if you are scrambling last-minute, I can be your go-to gal for a couple days, or even a couple weeks! Extended stays are no problem. If I'm not staying overnight I prefer afternoon and evening drop-ins/walks but can accommodate mornings on a case-by-case basis Currently on the job hunt so please let me cuddle your fur babies and water your plants instead of working on my resume I will always be respectful of your space and your pet's needs. I am a non-smoker, won't raid your fridge, or ever bring another person into your home. For extended stays I have no problem with special requests like bringing my own bedding, avoiding using your fancy espresso maker, or not messing up your netflix algorithm--this is YOUR space and I don't judge boundaries. I will always find and check on your pet as soon as I arrive and right before I leave, and I'll double-check that every door and window is shut and locked. I'm willing to water plants, get mail, and I won't miss garbage day--also open to discussing additional housekeeping needs. I strive to leave your space clean and tidy so upon your arrival home the only thing you'll need to focus on is reuniting with your best furr-iend.

About: I have taken care of my friend's cats (as well as my own) for years and am excited to start offering my services on Rover. I'm a proud cat dad to three very spoiled cats. I'd love to spend time with your pets, playing and engaging them while you're out of town. I'm a writer, which offers me tons of flexibility. I can even help you last minute! I am a writer, which means I don't work a "traditional job," so your pet will always be my first priority and primary concern. I am here to make your pet feel comfortable, safe, and happy. I have three cats at home and know they can be quite curious creatures. If there's something you need me to keep an eye on (making sure they don't bolt, etc.), I'm happy to accommodate their needs to ensure everyone is safe.

About: Hi! my name Juliana. As an experienced pet caretaker, I have the knowledge and skills that make me the perfect choice for taking care of your pet! I have taken care of both family and friend’s pets ( cats and dogs) and I understand the importance of providing attentive and loving care to make sure they are comfortable and happy. As a Dachshund owner myself, I know how important it is to follow routines and keep in mind specific needs. You can trust that I will provide your furry friend/child with the same level of care and attention that I give my own. Currently my schedule is limited because I don’t work from home, except for Fridays. Therefore, I’m available Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays for walks and drop ins. I can easy walk your dog and provide the exercise they need around the North Loop / Downtown Minneapolis area. For cat owners, I can provide visits to make sure food and litter are taken care of. Additionally, I volunteer at Minneapolis Animal Care & Control with both cats and dogs, which has helped me to understand behaviors and how to manage difficult situations.

About: I am a flight attendant with a bachelor’s degree in Animal science! So connecting with people and pets are my niche! Fur babies are welcomed! I can pick up trips to give me the most flexibility with my work schedule. I can do pop-ins as well as overnights if needed! I have experience working with cats and dogs at emergency hospitals and smaller veterinary clinics. I also have a indoor super sweet cat named snowbell.

“Jessica did a wonderful job walking our high energy dog, Isabella! She was available for a meet and greet beforehand, has been great to communicate with, and our dog was very happy after the walk. We look forward to having Jessica walk Isa again!”

About: I have been taking care of animals all my life. My family ran a doggy daycare in Germany for several years, And ever since I've moved to Minnesota I've been longing to get back into the business! I have experience working with dogs of all different sizes, cats, rabbits, and even birds! No challenge is too big for me and I am very familiar working with animals that require special needs. Your animals well-being is my top priority and I will treat them as if they were my own! I am a college student with flexible, part-time work– meaning that your pets will never be alone for too long! We can discuss exact schedules in more detail as needed, and I am more than willing to be flexible and accommodating to your needs! As a professional in the industry, I am very aware of the fact that every client has their own needs and wants. I always engange with animals and client homes with the utmost respect. Please do not shy away from requesting any accomodations! No request is too small, and it is very important to me that you feel your loved ones are in good hands with me!

About: With 12 years of experience caring for both dogs and cats, I bring a lifetime of love, patience, and understanding to every furry friend I meet. Growing up in a pet-loving family, I had the joy of bonding with cats and dogs alike, and now I have a sweet pup of my own who continues to teach me every day. I’ve worked with dogs of all ages—from playful puppies to wise seniors—and have some training experience that helps me connect with each pet’s unique needs and personality. To me, animals are the most precious beings, and they deserve more than just basic care—they deserve to be loved, respected, and pampered. I will always go out of my way to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and at home, as if they were my own! Even though my job comes with an unusual and ever-changing schedule, pet care is always a top priority in my life. I make it a point to plan around the pets I care for—ensuring they get all the love, attention, and consistency they need. Whether it’s making time for a walk, a cuddle session, or just being there when they need company, I’m fully committed to giving every pet in my care the same love and attention I give my own. Flexibility is part of my lifestyle, and it allows me to show up for your pets when you need me most! I care for my own dog with daily walks, lots of playtime, and all the cuddles he could ever want—he’s truly part of the family! That same level of love and attention is what I bring to every pet I care for. And while my dog is friendly and well-socialized, I completely understand that every pet has different comfort levels. If your pet needs space or a more private experience, I can easily keep them separated to ensure they feel safe, relaxed, and right at home!
