“Scott was great with Birdie and Mogie. Communication and flexibility were top shelf and both of our cats bonded with Scott right away. I would highly recommend this sitter and Scott will be my first choice next time I need someone to look after our cats.”

“Molly was amazing. She watched my fury crew during the coldest weather and was amazing. Came home to pets excited to me yet relaxed and calm. Highly recommend!”


About: Originally from central Wisconsin, I have grown up and take care of animals my entire life. From minature yorkies to rottweilers (and even ferrets), I have owned and cared for animals of all sizes and energy levels. Since moving to Minneapolis for college, I’ve really missed having dogs and pets in my life. Being around animals is therapeutic for me and can completely turn around a bad day. Honestly, I’m not doing this just for extra cash — I miss being around pets and love spending time with them, playing with them, and making sure they feel happy, comfortable, and cared for. I can't wait to meet your furry friends - thank you for your trust! I’m a recent college graduate with a flexible schedule and plenty of availability to care for your pets. I also work remotely, which allows me to be responsive, and flexible when it comes to finding times that work best for you and your pet’s needs. I have a fenced-in backyard with plenty of space for pets of all sizes to play and enjoy being outside. I also live in a spacious home, so your pets will have lots of room to feel comfortable, relaxed, and at home.
“This was our first time using Rover and Krista exceeded all of our expectations with her care of our 2 cats. She followed all of our care instructions, gave frequent and thorough updates, and made us feel confident that our cats were safe. We would absolutely work with Krista again for future trips!”


“Juli was a perfect dog sitter. Mac took to her right away. She took him for walks and took very good care of him and he was healthy and happy when we got home. I would definitely hire her again. Thanks much!”

“Queenie took great care of my little high-maintenance kitty, Charlie Chaplin. She was very responsible & kept me informed on how her visits with him went and readily coordinated key collection/drop-off with me. I would recommend her to others needing pet care.”

“Sierra did a great job of showing up on time and caring for my kitty. I was really comfortable with her during our meet and greet, Peepers was too so I knew it would be a good fit. I will definitely look for Sierra’s availability next time I need to travel. Thanks!”

About: With over 8 years of experience in animal care, I’ve had the pleasure of working with a wide variety of pets—including dogs, cats, rats, and even lizards! I’m confident handling pets of all ages, from playful puppies to senior companions who need a bit of extra TLC. I also have experience administering medications like pills, topical creams, and pet inhalers. I’m always happy to learn your pet’s unique routine and needs so they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I’m a second-year student at the University of Minnesota and love spending my free time caring for animals. While my weekday schedule is limited due to classes, I’m fully available on Fridays and would be happy to dedicate that time to pet care. I look forward to meeting new pets and giving them the attention they deserve! Since I care for pets in their own homes, I always try to make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you're away. I stick to their usual routine—whether that means walks, meals, playtime, or meds—whatever they need to feel at ease. I know how important it is to have someone you trust in your home, so I’m always respectful of your space and do my best to leave things just as I found them (or better!). I’ll also send plenty of photo updates so you can see how your pet is doing and feel reassured while you're away. I treat every pet like they’re my own and try to make the time you're gone as stress-free as possible for both of you.

“Shelby did an amazing job with both our pets. Highly recommend! Sent lots of pictures and took great care of them. We will definitely have Shelby back next time we are out of town.”

About: I am currently on the pre-veterinary track studying to work with animals as my career. I have completed an internship with the wildlife rehabilitation center as a mammal nursery intern and am currently a kennel assistant at a veterinary hospital. I am currently a full time university student but have plenty of availability and flexibility. I am open to moving my days’ schedule around to fit different pet needs! I ensure that there is a mutual respect and understanding between humans and pets. It is important to treat your pets as you would people, and show care and affection as they truly understand it.
About: I am a dedicated dog lover with hands-on experience caring for large breeds, especially strong, energetic pups like German Shepherds, Huskies, and other working breeds. I’m comfortable and confident handling dogs who need a calm, steady leader — including those who may be reactive to other dogs, people, or environmental triggers. I also have experience caring for dogs with special medical needs. I have experience applying ointments, eye drops, and administering pills and liquid medicines. I understand that cats have unique personalities and routines, and I’m comfortable with everything from feeding schedules and litter box care to administering medications and giving space to shy or independent cats. I provide calm, attentive care and make sure every pet feels safe, respected, and comfortable in their own home while you’re away. I like to be transparent when I take care of other peoples fur babies and will often share updates via text with added videos and photos of the time I spend with your pet, as well as time stamped detail of feeding, playtime, and potty updates. Pet care is a planned and consistent part of my daily and weekly routine. I organize my schedule to ensure I have dedicated time for walks, drop-ins, feeding, play, and companionship without feeling rushed. I build in flexibility to accommodate different pet needs, including early mornings, evenings, and weekends when needed. Because I plan my time carefully, I’m able to be reliable, punctual, and fully present for every pet in my care. I care for pets by following their established routines as closely as possible to help them feel safe and comfortable. In my client’s home, I make sure feeding schedules, walks, playtime, litter box care, and medications are handled exactly as instructed. I take time to understand each pet’s personality, energy level, and any behavioral or medical needs. For dogs, I focus on safe, structured walks, positive reinforcement, and calm handling. For cats, I provide attentive care while respecting their boundaries, keeping their environment clean, and offering affection at their comfort level. I always prioritize safety, clear communication, and leave detailed updates so pet parents feel confident their pets are in good hands.

“Lucia was absolutely great! We left for a few days and she was very communicative about her visits with our cat Pippin. She sent us pictures and updates every day, and he seemed very happy to see her and play with her! 100% recommend and will book again :)”

“Meghan was responsive, friendly, asked questions to make sure she understand what was needed, arrived on time, and followed instructions. I would book Meghan again to care for my cat!”

About: I've cared for two dogs as I grew up, and look forward to caring for more. I have done many long walks and dog park hiking with my golden doodle, and have also done some training as well. I know how to take care of puppies and adult dogs, but would love to learn how to take care of special needs and senior dogs. Dogs, like mine, are energetic and need lots of exercise, so I am always willing to play or exercise with dogs. Over the summer (June-August), I am free most afternoons and some evenings the whole week. During the school year, (September-May) I am more available during the weekends, but still free during some afternoon/evenings during the week, which I'll update as I get my schedule. At home, I care for my dog by giving him plenty of snuggles, but also getting up and playing with him when he lets me know he wants to play. I am alert and can sense what my dog may need, such as going potty, playing, or eating. When walking/going to the dog park, I watch over my dog at all times, and walk along with him. During walks, I make sure that he is safe to walk and sniff the whole time. At dog parks, I encourage him to meet other dogs and run around while still being present. I notice when my dog gets tired or needs water, and I am prepared by bringing a water bottle.
About: I grew up in a 3-dog household, so learned to love animals at a young age. As I got older I helped my family care for our pets, which meant helping them as they reached older age. My dog Buddy developed glaucoma and I often helped my parents with his eye drop regime, among the other tender responsibilities of walking and caring for elderly dogs. I’ve dog sit for several friends and family since high school as well, which often meant going over to house sit and stay with the dogs for company. My current job is remote, part time, and lets me set my own hours week-to-week. As such, I’m fairly open throughout the weekdays and weekend. Reach out and we can figure something out! Above all, I care about keeping your baby comfortable and happy! I enjoy being outside and taking pets for frequent walks to ensure they feel tired out, as well as playing with them to keep them mentally stimulated. Tell me what your pets like, and I’ll do my best at keeping them happy while you’re away :)
“Teresa did a fantastic job. My cats were happy and well cared for, and I really appreciated the updates during her check-ins, and she even took extra time to sit with my needy cat who really misses getting attention when I'm gone. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter.”

Krista is a genuinely cheerful person who truly loves animals, and it shows. She is incredibly professional and precise, following all my briefing instructions perfectly and managing a somewhat complex key-handover without any issues. Not only did she ensure that food, water, and the litter box were always perfectly clean, but she also spent time giving my cat long, fun play sessions. I felt completely at ease leaving my cat in her hands

Marissa has been such a dream to work with. She’s professional and considerate. She takes care of our home like her own and it’s been a relief to have someone like her watching over our cats while we’re away. The cats love her and she’s been an absolute trooper giving our two cats with chronic conditions their various pills and eye drops. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter!

This was my first time using Rover. Sierra checked in on my two cats while I was out of town (twice daily). We had recently got the second cat and she was very helpful in continuing their integration while we were away and ensured they were properly fed and healthy. Will be booking again.

Queenie took great care of my little high-maintenance kitty, Charlie Chaplin. She was very responsible & kept me informed on how her visits with him went and readily coordinated key collection/drop-off with me. I would recommend her to others needing pet care.

Mad did a drop by visit with our two dogs, in preparation for a longer stay ahead with them. Mad was conscientious and attentive with our dogs, and very willing to do what was necessary to help them feel comfortable (especially one of our dogs, who finds meeting new people a little scary). Mad clearly understands dogs and has a wealth of experience to draw from. We feel confident our dogs are in good hands!

Anne always took such good care of our cat Piper. She gave us complete peace of mind, was very communicative and very professional. We recently moved away from the area so we are sad to lose such a great pet caretaker. Anne is the absolute best! Highly highly recommend!
