“Thank you for taking such great care of Grizzly. He came home happy and tired. We loved receiving all of the updates and photos. We will definitely be reaching out the next time we need a dog sitter!”

“Monika and her pet family were wonderful with my two dogs. My dogs got along well with her pets and loved the large, fenced back yard. My older dog is deaf and has some GI issues requiring medication which Monika took care of for me. The pictures she sent on a daily basis showed how happy they were and cared for. They stayed for a week and loved every minute with her family.”


“Our dog Marge enjoyed her second stay just as much as the first and was equally spoiled! Great to have peace of mind that she is being cared for while we’re away.”

“Lisa was wonderful!!! She took such great care of our dog Blue! We loved the frequent photos and updates, and she was always so responsive to messages. I HIGHLY recommend Lisa and we will most definitely book with her again!”

“Dogs really enjoy themselves here! It’s an open, welcoming atmosphere where dogs can play and socialize with the other pups. I love a good environment that’s comfortable for both dogs and children, and this place fits right in. They have a big backyard for the dogs to run and burn off energy, and overall it seemed like a perfect fit for ours. They’re also very communicative and send pictures, which I really appreciate. Highly recommend! 🐾💛”

“Lauren and James did such an amazing job with our dog while we were out of town for a week. They sent awesome updates every day and such cute pictures. Winston felt right at home with them and they loved him like their own. He probably had more fun with them than he does at home! He came back fulfilled and happy. We will absolutely work with Lauren and James again when we have a trip come up.”

“Bandy and Chad have been fabulous with our dog Patty. She can be a nervous little dog when she's out of her normal environment and they've been so patient and loving to make her feel so at home. We are so relieved and thankful that we've found such reliable sitters with Brandy and Chad. Patty will definitely be going back and we know she'll look forward to it!”

“Karen and family took amazing care of our giant Newfoundland Nora. Spoiled her during her stay which was great to see. Pictures and updates daily showed how good of a time she had. Thank you for taking care of our baby.”

“Wow!! We had a boarding set up with another Rover family but unfortunately - it was not going to be a good fit. I quickly messaged Princesa - as this was the day we were to leave for the long memorial weekend - and she responded almost instantly! They were Incredibly flexible offering to meet for public pick up on our way out of town or bring her to their home based on our needs. Our pup had an AMAZING time and we were updated with pictures and texts daily. We were able to enjoy our holiday weekend with our minds at ease knowing our pup was well taken care of!!!! Thank you so much!!!! This was our first time using Rover and will definitely be boarding with them in the future!!!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!”

“Kyle took such good care of my baby Reba! Kyle had high communication with me regarding an ear infection that my pup was struggling with and even took her to the vet when she needed to be seen. My pup was at Kyle’s for over a week and had the happiest demeanor when I picked her up. It was clear to me that she was treated well and had a good time. I’ll definitely use Kyle again for Reba’s care.”

“McKayla and Dillon are the best! They treated our four year old yellow lab Lucy as if she was their own. Lucy seemed happy and co tent to be with them. We are blessed to have found them and will be rebooking with them for our next trip. Thanks, thanks, thanks!”

“Luke & Rachel took such great care of our dog, Goose! They were so great with communication and details, I felt very comfortable and relaxed having our girl stay with them, and would book again for sure. :)”

“This is the first time I left Frankie anywhere and Anna did a great job of slowly introducing him to other dogs and her family. I could tell through the daily photos and updates that Frankie was in good hands and that they actually enjoyed having him there.”

“Marie and Mark took great care of my extremely attention needing Basset hound. Sent lots of updates and treated her so kind. Would highly recommend them to watch your pets.”

“Alex was great with my nervous guy. We’ve boarded him in the past and he always seemed to be anxious and have trouble eating. He settled in quickly with Alex. I think being in a home environment was more like his everyday routine.”

“Every time they watch our dogs we know they are going to be cared for well and that makes going on vacation a lot easier. They send daily pictures and are so kind and caring. So lucky to have found them.”

“The best! Henry always has a great time and comes home nice and sleepy. Always appreciate the daily photos and check-ins! Definitely feel safe and comfortable leaving my fur baby with Nikki.”

“Hands down, Dynette is the best pet sitter I have ever used! She went above and beyond with my dog! She kept me informed and sent me pictures throughout the week and I have never been on a trip and felt so at ease about leaving my dog! I knew that my dog was in great hands and getting lots of love! I was so pleased that I am booking her for another vacation in a few months!”

“Lan took great care of our dog Jorah, while we were away for the weekend, would 100% recommend Lan to anyone in need of a pet sitter and will utilize her in the future! She sent us pictures of Jorah every day and let us know how he was doing! She was always quick to respond as well.”

About: I have owned and cared for cats my entire life and am comfortable with cats of all ages, from kittens to senior cats. I understand that every cat has a unique personality and needs their own level of attention, space, and care. I will make sure your cat feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you're away!

“Leann was our first experience with a pet sitter from Rover. She showed up every day right on schedule, made sure they had their food, water, and medicine, They also got some play time and human companionship. Leann even got one of the best photos of one of our cats who is notoriously difficult to photograph. We'd book her again.”


About: I’ve grown up around animals my entire life and have years of experience caring for cats with all kinds of personalities — from very social and playful cats to shy, independent, or older cats that need a quieter approach. Because I was homeschooled growing up, I spent a lot of time caring for and bonding with animals throughout the day, which taught me how important patience, consistency, and understanding body language are when it comes to pet care. I’ve also pet sat for years and worked with animals professionally, so I’m comfortable handling different routines, temperaments, feeding schedules, medications, litter box care, and multi-pet households. What makes me different is that I genuinely respect cats for who they are. I understand that every cat has their own comfort level, routine, and personality, and I do my best to make them feel safe, relaxed, and cared for while you’re away. Whether your cat wants constant attention and playtime or simply someone calm and trustworthy to care for them, I’m happy to provide the kind of care that fits their needs

“Lance did a great job! She arrived as expected and stayed the full requested half-hour and a little more! I felt my kitties were very well cared for and I’ve already booked another visit! I highly recommend Lance!!”


“Denise is amazing! She takes great care of our cat Meatball, during our last trip Denise noticed our home ran out of heating oil, she graciously broight over a stationary space heater that saved oir pipes from freezing - thank you 😊”

“Michael, is fantastic. He was very communicative and even offered to grab packages while we were out of town. He sent photos from all visits and was diligent about cleaning the cat boys box and ensuring that they were fed separately due to dietary requirements. We will absolutely be working with him again A+. Thank you for an awesome experience!”


“Lauren was amazing. Her communication and immediate response times were hugely appreciated. I felt very comfortable having her in my home and trusting our dog with her care. We will definitely book with her again!”


“Kristin is an amazing pet sitter. She has a high attention to detail and will make sure your pets receive the best care possible. She will do “the dirty work” because let’s face it, animals are gross and make big messes sometimes but she will take care of it because she understands. We love Kristin and will use her services again!! Thank you Kristin!!”

About: I’ve worked with dogs and cats in many different ways. I have owned dogs my entire life, plus a few cats. I volunteer at the Humane Society in Kansas City while at school where I work directly with the shelter dogs. I have house sat for multiple family friends and am ready to take on new pups and cats! I am currently home from school for the summer so am looking to fill the time. I work part time as a server a few times a week. During the day I often just workout, read a book, or hang with my own dogs. I have fostered a dog before and can adjust well to your dogs needs. I’ve practiced crate training, furniture restrictions, and other small training tasks. My house has an open yard which my dogs are free to run around in when they are not on leash to go potty.
About: I am currently a student at Northern Michigan University, looking to make a little money to help me through college. My whole life, I’ve been surrounded by pets.

I would love to provide great care for your pet and help reduce some stress in your day! I am currently a member of the Women’s lacrosse team at NMU, therefore my schedule changes by the week!

“Cate and Tim are awesome! They agreed to a quick meet and greet the day before watching Riley so when I dropped her off for the day she was right at home at their place. Riley made herself right at home and had lots of fun with the end result being a happy worn out pup. I got updatesnduring the day and great pictures of Riley that I could see that she was having a good time. I would definitely habe Cate and Tim watch Riley whenever I'm back in the area and need a sitter!”

“We have used Julie many times and are always hugely satisfied with her care of Echo. Echo got great play time with other dogs and good exercise out on the lake with Julie. Thanks for taking the time, Julie, to make Echo's day away fun and tiring! We were happy to get a tired doggy back home.”

“Orlando and Nicki were very responsive and accommodating. They were welcoming and hospitable. We thoroughly enjoyed our experience with them and they took very good care of our pet.”

“Great first day with a wonderful family! This was our daycare practice day before his weekend stay next week. Brody was very happy and well cared for. We received wonderful pics and are very pleased with how it went.”

“Luke & Aria (your sweet Doberman) thanks for providing a great afternoon for GiGi! I appreciate that they could play so well together in your fenced yard, that she had a lot of water and potty breaks and that you gave very good supervision. It was so nice to hear that you would love to take care of her again, to read your nice comments and that you provided cuddle time. You live in such a convenient location near a highway exit and other Rover clients could get a lot of errands done close to your home. We will call again.”

“Emily was very organized and took care of Frisco well. He came home tired from a day of hanging out with the dogs at Emily's house. Emily made drop off and pick up very easy. She also sent many pictures of Frisco throughout his day. I would definitely use Emily as a dog sitter again. Thanks, Emily!”

About: I grew up on a farm and my parents were both veterinarians. I love animals and am even tempered. I’ve had a dog my whole life (except during college) and I know how important exercise & companionship are for our furry friends. I’m currently working part-time from home and have lots of time to play & go for walks with your pup. My availability is very flexible. My backyard is fully fenced and a great size. My home is in a central location with great access to walking trails and not too far from the highway.
About: My husband and I have both grown up with pets and have continued caring for animals throughout our adult lives. We have extensive hands-on experience with dogs and cats of all ages and temperaments, and we currently care for a variety of animals in our home, including fish, a bearded dragon, a leopard gecko, a hamster, and hermit crabs. This has given us a strong understanding of different care needs, routines, and behaviors across species. We’re attentive, patient, and comfortable following specific instructions — whether that’s maintaining feeding schedules, administering basic care, or helping pets feel calm and safe in a new environment. We truly treat every pet as if they were our own. Because we work from home, pet care naturally fits into our daily routine. We’re around throughout the day to provide attention, playtime, feeding, and companionship, not just quick check-ins. Our flexible schedule allows us to adapt to each pet’s needs, whether that means extra cuddles, medication reminders, or keeping a consistent routine so pets feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. We care for pets as if they are part of our own family. In our home, pets have plenty of space to relax and play safely. We live on 10 acres, which allows for supervised outdoor time, walks, and fresh air, and we also have a large outdoor kennel available when appropriate for a pet’s comfort and safety. When caring for pets in a client’s home, we focus on consistency, attentiveness, and respect for each pet’s routine. We follow feeding schedules, exercise needs, medication instructions, and any special requests closely. We make it a priority to be responsive, communicative, and attentive so both pets and owners feel comfortable and confident while they’re away.

About: I’m confident and comfortable with both dogs and cats, including puppies, senior pets, high-energy dogs, shy animals, and pets that need extra patience or attention. I also have experience with potty training puppies, reinforcing routines and basic commands, and making pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I have worked professionally for years as a pet sitter for a wide variety of animals. This has given me experience and confidence in handling different temperaments, routines, and care requirements. I also grew up homeschooled on lots of land, so pets have been part of my everyday life for as long as I can remember. Because I was home during the day, I spent a lot of time helping with feeding, training, socializing, exercising, and caring for animals of all ages and personalities. What sets me apart is my genuine love for animals, whether they’re my own pets or someone else’s. I truly view animals as part of the family, and I believe every pet deserves individualized care, attention, patience, and love based on their unique personality and needs. I would treat every single pet as if it was my very own fur baby. I recently got married to the love of my life and moved to Mahtomedi! My husband works full time, I, however, have a completely wide open schedule! I have always loved animals and would love to fill my week days with taking care and of other people’s fur babies. Monday- Friday I am available any time of day all day. I am also available on weekends depending on the weekend, so please feel free to reach out and ask if the weekend you’re hoping for aligns with my summer plans. If I am staying in the pets home, I am sure to keep their routine as similarly as their owners do, so that both the pet and the owner feel as safe and comfortable as they can. I would be more than happy to send pictures and videos of their pet to update them on how they are doing. If the pets were in my home, I would do my best to make that temporary transition as smooth and as comfortable for them as possible. Whether that be bringing their own toys or bed, or letting them snuggle in the bed with me if that’s what they are used to. With my schedule being solely dedicated to pet sitting, your pet will never lack attention in whatever ways they need! Whether that’s endless walks and tug of war, snuggles on the couch, or just having a safe hand around to make sure they are picked up after.
“My dog had a fantastic day. He went on two walks, played with kids, met the neighbors and watched part of the day roll by on the porch. And when I picked him up, he absolutely crashed in the back seat. Paige and family are awesome!! Can’t wait to go back.”

About: I work 100% out of my home and enjoy having furry friends around to keep me company. I enjoy going outside with my friends on two walks a day. One in the morning and one in the afternoon. We are a family of 6. Two parents, three human kids and one furry kid. Human kids are gone at school during the day but our kind dog Paco is home with me during the day. Paco is a sweet and loving dog who likes friends to walk with or snuggle with. We have a loving home with lots of places to lounge out at during the day. We enjoy having additional furry friends around to keep us company during the days and nights. If you’d like to know more please don’t hesitate to reach out.
“Shelly was awesome. She was flexible when I had to change my dates. There was plenty of open space and other animals for Bear to play with. Shelly also was helping with our potty training since Bear is only three months old. I will use her again.”

I live in a house with my parents. The upstairs level is my dedicated living space, which includes a bedroom, bathroom, and a living room area. Your pet will spend their time in this space with me!

My focus is on making each walk a positive and enriching experience for the pets in my care, fostering a sense of trust, joy, and exercise. When caring for pets on walks, my approach revolves around their safety, well-being, and enjoyment. I prioritize keeping them on a secure leash, ensuring their comfort with proper equipment, and maintaining a watchful eye for any potential hazards. Regular water breaks are provided, especially on hot days, and I adjust the pace of the walk to match their energy levels. Every pet is unique, so I adapt to their preferences, whether it's a brisk urban stroll, a leisurely park visit, or interactive playdates with fellow dogs. And of course I am happy to provide picture updates :)

I am currently home from school for the summer so am looking to fill the time. I work part time as a server a few times a week. During the day I often just workout, read a book, or hang with my own dogs. I have fostered a dog before and can adjust well to your dogs needs. I’ve practiced crate training, furniture restrictions, and other small training tasks. My house has an open yard which my dogs are free to run around in when they are not on leash to go potty.
About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats my entire life and regularly help neighbors, friends, and family with pet sitting and drop-in visits. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, walks, playtime, administering basic medications, and caring for both energetic puppies and senior pets. I treat every animal like my own and prioritize safety, consistency, and clear communication with owners. I work full-time but maintain a flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate daily drop-ins, walks, and overnight care when needed. Pet care is built into my routine — caring for my own animals is the first and last part of every day. I prioritize reliability and consistency, and I communicate clearly about availability. My home has a fully fenced yard with plenty of secure space for supervised outdoor play. Inside, I have hardwood floors and an open layout with room for pets to relax comfortably. I have two crates available if needed and maintain structured areas for feeding, water, rest, and play. Safety, supervision, and routine are my top priorities, and I ensure pets are monitored and comfortable at all times.
About: I love dogs and have a fenced in yard for them to play. 🐾 I am knowledgeable about dog behavior and recognize signs of illness or distress. I have experience with potty training, medication administration, and reinforcing basic training commands. I currently work three days per week and have plenty of time to spend with your pups. I can accommodate to ensure your fur babies routine is maintained and their needs are fulfilled. I have a fenced in yard and lots of space inside my home for pups to make themselves comfortable. In my home, pups are welcome on furniture and will receive lots of pets and playtime. I will maintain a safe, clean, and loving environment environment for you pups. ♡
About: Hello my name is Chelsea and I love animals. Growing up I lived on a hobby farm with cats, dogs, horses, goats, fish and chickens to now when I have reptiles, two dogs and a cat. My dream job would be to work with animals every day and build a trust between owner and sitter because I know the feeling when you can trust that your animal baby will be cared for to the fullest extent. I have always cared for animals and have been to a few basic animal emergency classes that I learned a lot from such as cpr on cats, dogs and reptiles to learning basic signs of pain or uncomfortably. I can’t wait to meet more animals and am excited to start. I have always had a routine and the pets were just a part of that. If I leave the house the have each other but I’m never gone for more then an couple hours. I care for them as I would my own, they are apart of the family and I wouldn’t want it any other way. If they need water; I would fill the bowl, same with food. If they needed potty break I would take them outside; and if they wanted to cuddle and watch a movie on the couch I would allow it.
About: I had my first dog when I was 7 years old, I was helping my dad to train my dog. I was responsible for his walks, food, etc. After my first dog experience, I’ve decided that animals make me so happy. I had 8-10 senior/young dogs that I took care of. I also had four cats that I was taking care of. Some birds, fish, turtles, horses… I genuinely love spending time with animals I am currently in college full time, we can always schedule a week ahead to make sure if I have enough time for your dog! Unfortunately I won’t be able to take your dog to my house for nights but I can take them during the day. I have fenced backyard that your animals can have their own space and have fun!

“Thank you for taking such great care of Grizzly. He came home happy and tired. We loved receiving all of the updates and photos. We will definitely be reaching out the next time we need a dog sitter!”

“Monika and her pet family were wonderful with my two dogs. My dogs got along well with her pets and loved the large, fenced back yard. My older dog is deaf and has some GI issues requiring medication which Monika took care of for me. The pictures she sent on a daily basis showed how happy they were and cared for. They stayed for a week and loved every minute with her family.”


“Our dog Marge enjoyed her second stay just as much as the first and was equally spoiled! Great to have peace of mind that she is being cared for while we’re away.”

“Lisa was wonderful!!! She took such great care of our dog Blue! We loved the frequent photos and updates, and she was always so responsive to messages. I HIGHLY recommend Lisa and we will most definitely book with her again!”

“Dogs really enjoy themselves here! It’s an open, welcoming atmosphere where dogs can play and socialize with the other pups. I love a good environment that’s comfortable for both dogs and children, and this place fits right in. They have a big backyard for the dogs to run and burn off energy, and overall it seemed like a perfect fit for ours. They’re also very communicative and send pictures, which I really appreciate. Highly recommend! 🐾💛”

“Bandy and Chad have been fabulous with our dog Patty. She can be a nervous little dog when she's out of her normal environment and they've been so patient and loving to make her feel so at home. We are so relieved and thankful that we've found such reliable sitters with Brandy and Chad. Patty will definitely be going back and we know she'll look forward to it!”

“Karen and family took amazing care of our giant Newfoundland Nora. Spoiled her during her stay which was great to see. Pictures and updates daily showed how good of a time she had. Thank you for taking care of our baby.”

“Wow!! We had a boarding set up with another Rover family but unfortunately - it was not going to be a good fit. I quickly messaged Princesa - as this was the day we were to leave for the long memorial weekend - and she responded almost instantly! They were Incredibly flexible offering to meet for public pick up on our way out of town or bring her to their home based on our needs. Our pup had an AMAZING time and we were updated with pictures and texts daily. We were able to enjoy our holiday weekend with our minds at ease knowing our pup was well taken care of!!!! Thank you so much!!!! This was our first time using Rover and will definitely be boarding with them in the future!!!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!”

“Kyle took such good care of my baby Reba! Kyle had high communication with me regarding an ear infection that my pup was struggling with and even took her to the vet when she needed to be seen. My pup was at Kyle’s for over a week and had the happiest demeanor when I picked her up. It was clear to me that she was treated well and had a good time. I’ll definitely use Kyle again for Reba’s care.”

“McKayla and Dillon are the best! They treated our four year old yellow lab Lucy as if she was their own. Lucy seemed happy and co tent to be with them. We are blessed to have found them and will be rebooking with them for our next trip. Thanks, thanks, thanks!”

“Alex was great with my nervous guy. We’ve boarded him in the past and he always seemed to be anxious and have trouble eating. He settled in quickly with Alex. I think being in a home environment was more like his everyday routine.”

“Every time they watch our dogs we know they are going to be cared for well and that makes going on vacation a lot easier. They send daily pictures and are so kind and caring. So lucky to have found them.”

“The best! Henry always has a great time and comes home nice and sleepy. Always appreciate the daily photos and check-ins! Definitely feel safe and comfortable leaving my fur baby with Nikki.”

He requires some extra TLC because he needs medicine with his food. She followed all of our directions well and kept us informed on how he was doing. We greatly enjoyed seeing pictures and videos of him. We will definitely have Julie watch our dog in the future!”

“Jessica and her husband were great. My dog has separation anxiety, but she was in no hurry to leave their home. And, she's been relaxed since her stay with them. Communication was great. I will definitely use Jessica again!”
