“Lauren was wonderful with our big guy Max. She was very communicative and sent lots of pictures of him enjoying the deck outside. She brushed him and made sure he got lots of attention while we were gone. It truly made our vacation much more enjoyable knowing she would be stopping by to spend time with him. I would highly recommend Lauren.”
About: When I was little I used to tell people I lived in a Zoo and though it often felt that way with 4 dogs, 2 cats, a bird and rabbits it was not a reality (maybe one day ;) .) I have been caring for animals since I could hold a leash from walking and feeding dogs to trimming cat nails. In the past 5 years I have raised and trained my own high energy Vizsla as well as cared for a few litters of Bernese Mountain Dogs. I deeply believe the relationship a human has with their furry friend is unique and irreplaceable and my goal as a dog caretaker is to protect those relationships. Not only do I keep your furry babies happy and healthy, but I also strive to create peace of mind for you. I just moved to Minnesota and am diving into the vibrance of life here. With that, I am very flexible on timing. Morning-Day-Night and Weekends are all great for me. I completely understand that each dog owner has preferences and ways they want their babies to be cared for. With that, as I enter someone else's space I do so with a mindset of respect for the guidelines and rules they have laid out. I will care for you dog to the best of my abilities while keeping your wishes at the forefront.
About: I have always had a deep love for animals in my l life! I have lived with cats and dogs my entire life—they’ve always been a part of me! Growing up, I always wanted to be a veterinarian so that I could care for animals because that’s how much I love them! I have taken care of dogs and cats on and off over the past 13 years of my life through my best friend’s dog and cat sitting business, as well as owning my own pets. I’ve dealt with all sizes of dogs. I’ve walked the dogs, fed them, played with them, cleaned up after them, etc. I have always loved taking care of fur babies and I guarantee I will instantly fall in love with your pet! I will make sure they are spoiled with love and the best care possible! I work from home Monday, Thursday, and Friday, so I am completely free those entire days! On Tuesdays and Wednesdays I work in the office from 10-3 but am free before and after that! I will spoil your pet with unconditional love and cuddles! I take pride in providing proper care for animals and making sure all of their needs are met. I am a high energy college athlete who absolutely loves animals!
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my six years of dedicated, hands-on experience caring for animals around the clock. I grew up with two dogs and a cat, caring for them through all stages of life—including senior care and end-of-life comfort. I also have experience working with rescues my family adopted, which taught me patience and adaptability with animals of different backgrounds and temperaments. I’m confident working with puppies, senior pets, and those needing special attention, and I truly love and treat every animal as if they were my own. I currently have an open schedule, which allows me to be very flexible and fully dedicate time to pet care. I’m able to plan my days around the needs of the pets I’m caring for, making sure I’m available for feeding times, walks, play, and any special routines or requests. When caring for pets, I prioritize their safety, comfort, and routine. I follow all owner instructions for feeding, medication, and exercise, ensuring fresh water and a clean environment. Whether supervising play, going for walks, or offering companionship, I aim to reduce stress and make pets feel secure and well cared for in any setting.
About: I have been walking dogs for 3 years. The dog I currently walk is a Golden Retriever with a lot of energy! I have also walked other large dogs as well as small dogs. I currently walk a dog every morning Monday through Friday, and 2 small dogs as needed. We enjoy going for walks and to the dog park if requested. We have gone on car rides to different parks for walks as well as walking in the neighborhood. I love the time I get to spend with the dogs. Dog walking is what I do. Every day Monday through Friday I walk a Golden Retriever. After that I am open to taking on more walking or drop in visits. When going to clients homes I am always careful to be sure to lock up the home after our walk. I check to be sure that there is adequate water. I am respectful of others private space and leave things as I find them. I give treats if requested. On hot days we can keep walks shorter if requested. I will also brush your dog if you request this.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.
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.
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 .
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.
