“Katrina and Drew were great! They were quick to communicate and were very accommodating to minor schedule changes. Our pup did so well she ran out of food! She usually skips meals when away from home and I pack accordingly. Katrina quickly replaced the food to keep Schatzi on schedule!”
“Margarita was very nice and knowledgeable about dogs. Our dog was only there a little over 24 hrs, but she sent pictures and made us feel quite comfortable with choosing her for dog care. Highly recommend her to others!”

“Sofie had a great time and came home tired! She is use to being the only dog in a household, but got to play with Elliah’s pups and appeared to have really enjoyed this. We were communicated with regarding how Sofie was doing and felt completely comfortable that she was being well cared for. We will use Elliah again!”

She sent me pictures every day (and I mean each day) of her son snuggling, playing, and reading stories with Vinny. She was nice enough to drop Vinny off at our house so that he would be there when we got home since we had a late flight. We are already about to message Heidi to watch Vinny again!”
“Beth and family were awesome to my fur baby. My GoodleDoodle enjoyed all the attention and play time and came home tired out which was great for me to relax to. Will definitely use again!”

“Robyn does an excellent job! We have 3 cats with an involved routine and had very lengthy and specific instructions. Robyn is intelligent, communicates well, responds quickly, and follows detailed instructions well. She also has a calming presence, vibe, and speaking voice, which is incredibly helpful for cats. She knows how to respect cat’s autonomy. I was impressed that she approached them in a way that lets them decide if they want to receive attention. She provides excellent notes and photos with each visit and as pet parents, we are relieved to have someone like her to care for them while we are away.”
“Elizabeth was incredibly thorough and easy to work with. I felt incredibly comfortable leaving my animals with her. She is also excellent at communicating while she is sitting, and I would absolutely trust her to catsit again.”
About: Growing up with multiple cats and raising two rescue tabbies of my own taught me that cats aren't 'just' low-maintenance pets—they have distinct personalities and communication styles. My approach to cat sitting includes: • Reading Them and the Room: I know when a cat wants playful interaction and when they are asking for space. I respect their cat-ness and don’t force cats into any interactions they don’t want to have. • Play & Enrichment: I use toys they like and games they find interesting and stimulating, and will ask you about what they like to do the most. • Routines and Cleanliness: I keep feeding, litterbox cleaning, and grooming to our agreed upon schedule and will make sure their space is maintained and clean while you are away. • Shy & Nervous Cats: I wait for your cats to set the tone, using patience, quiet companionship, and only the touch they prefer. I am happy to let them set the pace!
“Wendy was great with our cats. She was consistent with her visits and updates. We loved the photos she sent. We could tell they had fun with here when we came home because one of them brought his wand to us to play with.”

About: I’ve owned cats for many years, my current baby is a young lady I found in a parking lot last fall and we immediately fell in love with each other. I work in the pet care industry so I am very familiar with all of the less glamorous tasks needed to keep your baby healthy and safe. Whether you need me to administer medication or deal with litter box troubles, I’m your guy!
About: I have been around animals for as long as I can remember. I have the biggest soft spot for them, and I have two dogs of my own. I have had my own dog since I was about 19, but have had outdoor farm dogs for as long as I can remember. I have been around dogs, cats, guinea pigs, and other small animals for as long as I can remember. I am patient, detail orientated and I truly just love spending time with animals. Big or small, I love them all! I do work during the day, but I have the ability to pop out if/when I need to. I am free evenings and weekends. My schedule can be flexible if needed. I have a dog friendly home. To me this means there’s nothing but toys on the ground. Garbages are hidden and I am very aware of what is around my animals. I also have a dog park in front of my apartment!

About: Pheonix, my now 9 year old cat is the love of my life. I understand what a cat needs whether that be cuddles during a nap or treats during playtime! Their subtle yet obvious cues of affection is what sets cats apart from any other animal and I admire and appreciate them so much!
“As always Lauren is excellent with my unique Ocicats. From the photos I can tell they are exceptionally comfortable with her which they definitely are not with everyone! She is one of my top Rover go-tos now!”

I'm currently working part-time, so I am available for more time. My son is off to the Marines, so I can stay at the client's house. This love for pet sitting began when my friends asked me to take care of their animals while they were on. vacation I prefer the pets at the client's house, where they feel more comfortable. Building trust with pets is key; they feel safe and secure while parents are gone. I will communicate with you as well as you see fit when you are gone to ensure you are happy and safe.

About: I’m recently retired and have had dogs all my life, since being 7 years old. I had to put my last fur baby to sleep in January 2026 and will be traveling over the next few years so don’t want to get another right now, and really miss having a doggo around! I used Rover quite a bit when I had dogs so would love to pay it forward and help someone else. Plus then I hopefully will get my fix of dogs! I’m currently very flexible, having just retired. I usually walk first thing in the morning and then after dinner with our British lab, Lilly. Live in Madison Lake but willing to drive to Mankato or St. Peter, for pet sitting or dog walking. We have a great home for dogs, so am happy to do pet sitting in our home too. We have a small British lab but she is not in the house much; she is a sweet, lover dog that prefers to hang outside in her luxury kennel outside. We walk her twice daily, and she gets along with all dogs we meet.
About: I have taken care of all types of animals since the age of 12. Most recently I have been working for almost a year at a dog boarding facility. I also own 3 dogs and 2 cats who have always been around other animals and are all up to date on vaccines I work from home and work Friday and Saturday during the mornings. If I am able to help I will definitely help in any way I can just message me I have a fenced yard and plenty of room for playing. I have baby gates around our home for the pups and keep all animals near at all time
“Ana and her family were absolutely amazing! It’s clear that they truly understand how important our dogs are to us. Ana’s communication was unparalleled. She sent frequent updates with photos and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind while Oreo was with them. Oreo loved playing with their sweet pup Bailey in their securely fenced yard and soaking up all the loving pets from the whole family. It was obvious that they genuinely love dogs and treat their visitors like part of the family. I also really appreciated the chance to do a meet and greet ahead of time so Oreo and Bailey could meet and make sure they were a good play match. I would feel completely comfortable having Oreo stay with them again anytime, and I know he would be thrilled to go back. I won’t hesitate to reach out next time he needs some playtime and extra snuggles!”
“Heidi and her husband have graciously welcomed Belle into their home for daycare a few different times now. I have appreciated how responsive they are, and how readily they and their dogs accept Belle into their family.”
“Margarita has been a wonderful, flexible, accommodating, understanding, champion for me and Spike. He is having a good time there. When I get him he is always a happy puppy and I can tell he is well taken care of. He comes home and he likes to take naps afterward, poor puppy having so much fun with her dogs and her cute youn son. Nice open space for Spike to walk on leash and not worry about his safety. Definitely booking again (already have the reservations). It’s nice to know that my 11week puppy has a loving and caring place that takes care of him while I am at work.”
About: I work remotely in marketing full time. We’re very grateful to have a nice home with a wonderful, large, fenced-in backyard that allows the dogs to go potty in and explore (bark!). My availability and hours are very flexible and the dogs are rarely left alone or kenneled, they are free to roam the house, I just close doors as necessary. I have never owned a dog of my own, I just grew up around dogs and cats. Mainly and most recently, it was a sisters two dogs our family spent the most time around: Gibbs (15 lb., 13 yr old, male Jack Russell Terrier & Beagle mix) and Zero (65 lb., 5 yr old, male Standard Poodle). I would basically Rover for her and her husband, which including giving the senior, anxiety-ridden dog meds (he didn’t enjoy, he would spit them up). We enjoyed being outdoors and evening walks around the neighborhood and having them a part of our family. They have then since moved to the West coast with their dogs. I work remotely and am blessed with the work-life balance it offers. I have an energetic elementary school-aged daughter. She's an empath and truly cares for all animals wellbeing! She's deeply concerned about any discomfort or distress. We have a dog-friendly orange cat named Buddy (4). He's fed first thing in the AM and enjoys chin scratches. He stays nearby me in my office or does his own thing. My daughter buses to and from school and I take a hour lunch at noon, then am done at 5 PM and we go about our evening routine. Dogs go out every few hours (sliding patio door) to the fenced in yard or when they signal me. Right in the morning and before bed. I try to get as much activity in for us as possible, especially on decent weather days. We utilize a nearby parks, dog park and walking trails in our community. Having the dogs here really motivate me to go for more walks, the dogs love them and I appreciate the eager walking company. I also live with my younger sister (23). She works full time 2 jobs as a CNA/retail, isn't home much but does help me care for the dogs, such as a short walk around the block. Our home is a 4 bed, 3 level split with a finished basement. It has a large secure, fully-fenced in yard and the property has 11 trees. Garage is attached. We all sleep in the upstairs bedrooms which is also where my office is. I have 2 litter boxes for my cat, one in garage that he prefers. The other is in the basement bathroom, where I can keep the door shut (Ive caught sisters dog eating litter covered turds). Our neighborhood is very safe and quiet. I have a reflective sash I wear out at night (this summer I was nearly ran over by an SUV when it was dark). The dogs usually sleep on the floor in my room and it's OK if they sleep on the bed, I am not concerned about fur. If the dog stinks, I can give them a bath either downstairs in the wash tub or upstairs in the bathtub. If they stay longer and start to stink, I will bathe them, because everyone feels better after a bath.
“This was Harvest’s first stay at Beth’s. He had an amazing time. Harvest rarely eats when left with others (because he can be anxious). He ate all his food there! He is a tired out pup tonight. Harvest will definitely return!”
“Elizabeth cared for our Corgi and Cockapoo for two days while we were visiting the area. Our girls had so much fun with Elizabeth and her two daughters. We will absolutely book with her again.”
About: My husband and I are former dog foster parents and love meeting/spending time with new dogs! We have one resident (foster fail!) dog: Tesha, a rambunctious tripod who loves people. We especially love older dogs in our house but are open to dogs 1 year and up. We have a fully fenced in backyard and a tie out available for outside play time. We have space to keep dogs separated if you have a dog that is shy or needs very slow introductions (we have a three level home). Our resident pup is allowed on our bed if she chooses, but we have plenty of dog beds around too, and we do not allow dogs on our couch. We will do our very best to accommodate your pups needs and keep you updated on how your four legged family member is doing while you are away! I currently work from home and am able to take breaks to allow potty and attention breaks. My husband is also home most of the time and will be available when I am not. We like to do slow introductions to other dogs to ensure the comfort of our resident dogs and the visiting pups. We have the space to crate or allow roaming on separate levels if needed.

“Robyn is beyond great with my dog! We started with a meet and greet walk that went very well but after my dog was shy without me there. Robyn was very good at helping Trusty warm up to her! She is always open to suggestions when it comes to me and my dog's needs. Now Trusty absolutely adores her! She's always very punctual, takes good pictures,and leaves good notes on her walks. When she isn't able to walk my dog, she has notified me far earlier than what I expected. I leave for work at 5:00 in the morning and I've had time to readjust before I leave. Hopefully recommended!”

About: I’ve lived with 5 hunting dogs my entire life as I was a hunting family and had to always take care of them at home.

Let me know if your pet has a special accommodations! I currently work 2-3 days a week depending on the week, so I will have plenty of time to play with your animals and let them out! I am used to watching anywhere from small to large dogs as I have grown up with all sizes in my family. If your dog loves to go on walks, great because I love to exercise!
About: Pets have always been a meaningful part of my life. I recently lost my childhood dog, Sophee, and her absence has reminded me just how much joy and companionship animals bring. With years of experience caring for dogs, cats, and even a variety of farm animals, I’m confident in my ability to provide attentive, loving care. I’d be honored to help make your busy schedule a little easier by ensuring your pet gets the attention, comfort, and care they deserve. I just graduated from Gustavus and am working a few jobs this summer to help me pay for my graduate school this coming fall! I work a restaurant job, so typically I’m only available before 4, or after 4, and I only know less than a week ahead. Despite this, I'm committed to making it workout with you and whatever pet you may have! Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, their safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take time to understand each pet’s routine, preferences, and any specific needs they may have. In your home, I aim to keep their environment as familiar and stress-free as possible by sticking to their usual schedule and respecting your space. I also prioritize secure leash handling during walks and double-check doors and gates to prevent escapes. I treat every pet like my own—with patience, attentiveness, and plenty of love.

I am using this as my only job, and don't have any other priorities besides being a student. I don't have any classes I have to go to; they are all online, so I will have a free schedule. I have a yard that your pets will be able to play and no other animals live in my home. I always prioritize safety, following feeding instructions, walk routines, and home rules closely. In a client’s home, I’m respectful, clean, and ensure pets are calm, well-cared for, and not left alone.

I also have a dog park in front of my apartment!
About: I have been taking care of animals for over 15 years now with experience with any age or size of dog. I am very flexible with your or your pets needs. I offer all services available. I am home full time so I am able to be with your dog and provide potty and play breaks several times during the day. I have a fenced in yard and two friendly dogs to keep your dog company! I am home full time so your dog will never be alone.
“Kayla was great. Was on time, took the pups on a nice long walk, sent a few pictures, and communicated with me when she picked them up and dropped them off. Will definitely be reaching out for here services again.”
About: I have grown up with two lovely pups in my house. I helped taking care of them and even helped in training our hunting dog! I love being around animals and especially dogs. I am currently a college student I go to school at the university of Minnesota state Mankato. I am majoring in sports management with a minor in marketing. Moving back to college means I’m away from my dog at home. I am not ready to commit to getting a dog of my own due to living in an apartment, but I wanted the opportunity to be around dogs. So, that’s when I found rover and thought it would be perfect for someone like me! I give a lot of attention to the dogs and of course love to take them on long walks as I am quite active myself.

We were communicated with regarding how Sofie was doing and felt completely comfortable that she was being well cared for. We will use Elliah again!”
“Marill was excellent with our dogs and it's very obvious she is a dog lover of all dogs and treats them as her own. It looked like they had the best time (she kept us updated with great pictures) and their very different needs were able to be met. Would happily bring my dogs there again and recommend to anyone.”

“Heidi is one of the best dog sitters we have ever had! She and her son took amazing care of Vinny. She sent me pictures every day (and I mean each day) of her son snuggling, playing, and reading stories with Vinny. She was nice enough to drop Vinny off at our house so that he would be there when we got home since we had a late flight. We are already about to message Heidi to watch Vinny again!”
“This was the perfect place for our Walter. Lots of room to roam and very friendly hosts! Kept us updated and sent us photos, and were very flexible with timing. We will definitely be back!”
About: I was born and raised with dogs and cats. I have cared for pets of all sizes my whole life. I am comfortable with following specific diets, giving oral medications, and going on long walks through the neighborhood. I work from home as a full time realtor so your pet will get constant attention, potty breaks, and playtime all day long. I'm currently working as a full time realtor, so I am available during the day, night, and weekends to check on your pup and burn off some energy on a nice stroll through the neighborhood. Your fur baby and I will enjoy walks to the nature center walking distance from my home. I currently have no animals in my home. So your fur baby will get plenty of one on one time with me and you will not have to worry about your fur baby not getting along with another pet.
