“I have an older dog that had never been boarded before. Angie said all went smoothly. I was concerned because my dog is old and is used to being just around me. Angie must have made her feel comfortable. Highly recommend her and I will definitely use her services again if needed.”
“Ollie and Huey enjoyed their stay with Collette and her family. They were comfortable when they walked in the door and she communicated well throughout their stay. We will ask her to care for them again.”
“This is the second time we have booked a stay with Andrea and we will definitely be coming back. My dog seems to like staying here! Andrea easily handles a special (quirky) diet. It was great to get a daily photo and update. Drop off and pick up were flexible. I’m so glad we discovered this sitter!”
“Emily was excellent from start to finish! Great communication, she sent many pictures while we were gone, and most importantly our dog was treated like her own! I think he might have stayed with her if given the chance! We will definitely use her again!”
About: Hello everyone! My name is Shelly, and I’m excited to care for and work with your beloved pets. I grew up on a dairy farm, where caring for animals wasn’t just a chore—it was a way of life. From milking cows to raising chickens and pigs, and always having a dog and numerous cats around, animals were at the heart of my daily routine. Those early experiences taught me responsibility, consistency, and the importance of attentive, compassionate care. Today, my husband and I run a small hobby farm of our own, where we care for horses, chickens, our beloved dog Luna, and many kitties. Animal care continues to be a central part of my life and is something I truly enjoy. I have also completed additional training and worked extensively with my own horses and dogs. Having been around animals my entire life, I have experience providing a wide range of care, including assisting with livestock deliveries (calves and swine), administering medications, and caring for animals with medical needs, including those associated with aging. I also frequently care for the pets and farm animals of friends and neighbors. I can't help but develop a special bond with each animal I care for. Working with animals is one of my deepest passions. I love to travel and explore the world whenever I can. Through my own experiences, I’ve learned how challenging it can be to find someone who is not only trustworthy, but also experienced and comfortable caring for both household pets and larger farm animals. Having peace of mind while you’re away is invaluable. My goal is simple: to give you the confidence to travel, work, or attend life’s events without worry, knowing your animals are safe, well cared for, and treated like family. I look forward to serving our community and building trusting relationships with both you and your animals! Currently, I am home full-time and available 24/7 from June through August, which allows for a very flexible schedule. I return to my full-time position during the last week of August. At that time, my availability will vary, with weekends generally offering the most flexibility. From September through June, my regular work hours are Monday through Friday, 7:45 a.m. to 3:45 p.m. I am committed to working with pet owners to accommodate their needs as best as possible and will do my utmost to ensure your pets receive the care, attention, and consistency they deserve. My pets are part of my family, and I provide them with the highest level of care, love, and attention possible. Their well-being is one of my top priorities. When caring for someone else's pets, I treat them as if they were my own because I understand how much our animals mean to us. I also recognize how important we are to our pets and that being separated from their owners can sometimes be stressful for them. My goal is to provide the comfort, care, and attention they need while maintaining their normal routines as closely as possible. I make every effort to follow all instructions and preferences provided by pet owners to ensure their pets feel safe, happy, and well cared for while they are away.
“Jennifer took great care of my pampered dog. He's an only child at my house, but Jennifer's dogs and family made him feel right at home. I will definitely see if she is available the next time I travel to Minnesota and need boarding!”
“Kari & family made sure that Toby felt comfortable before I even left. She sent timely updates and questions to make sure that Toby received the best care possible while we were apart. Will definitely use her again!”
“Jessica was so wonderful with our little Snarla. Jessica sent updates as requested. We will definitely call her the next time we need a sitter. Thanks again for everything Jessica! Kitty, Mike, and Snarla.”
“We needed to travel over Christmas and couldn’t bring our dog with us. Amanda and her family took such great care Rue while we were away! She sent us the most adorable photos and made us feel so comfortable knowing she was in a loving home! We will for sure reach out to Amanda in the future!”
About: I’ve had dogs and cats in my home for most of my life and have decades of hands-on experience caring for pets. I’m especially comfortable with large and giant-breed dogs and understand the extra attention, space and patience they can require. I currently have Great Danes of my own, so big dogs are absolutely welcome here! I’m comfortable with feeding routines, walks, medications, senior dogs and the everyday care that comes with making a pet feel safe and comfortable. I’ll treat your pet like one of my own while they’re staying with me. My work schedule rotates, which gives me several days off at a time and plenty of time at home with the dogs. I keep my Rover availability updated so I only accept bookings when I know I can give your pet the time and attention they deserve. Your pet’s safety and comfort come first. I have years of experience caring for dogs and cats and am especially comfortable with large and giant breeds. I have two Great Danes of my own and understand introductions, supervision and giving dogs their own space when needed. I’ll follow your pet’s normal feeding, exercise, medication and sleeping routines as closely as possible so they feel comfortable and at home.
“Allison, did a great job watching our rescue dog Parker. He comes with his own set of challenges and she did not seemed stressed by them at all. Parker seemed to have had a great time.”
“Bailey was so accommodating to our schedule and willing to take on our three cats (who can be a handful!). She updated us regularly while we were on our trip with updates and photos, we which looked forward to every day!”

About: have been around cats for as long as I can remember. Growing up on a dairy farm, there were always plenty of cats and kittens around. You could often find me in the hay barn spending time with them. Even at a young age, I went above and beyond to care for my furry friends, whether that meant providing special treats, caring for orphaned kittens, or making sure they were comfortable and well-loved. Today, I care for 9 barn cats and 2 outdoor/garage cats of my own. All of my pets are spayed or neutered because I strongly believe in responsible pet ownership and providing the best care possible. Over the years, I have been exposed to cats of all ages, personalities, and needs. I have experience administering medications and injections to my own cats and am comfortable providing basic medical care when needed. In addition to caring for my own pets, I have also looked after cats and other pets for friends and family. I understand that every cat is unique, and I strive to provide the same level of love, attention, and care that I would want for my own animals.
About: I have two kitties currently and I treat them as my children. I love spending time with cats, snuggles and play time are the best! My very first kitty was blind in one eye, she didn't have any trouble with this deformity, in my opinion it made her even more charming! I would treat your fur babies as if they were my own!
“She was great! She was on time, sent us lots of pictures, kept us informed on everything, and went above and beyond. Our dog was content and happy when we got home and we are very appreciative.”
“Bailey was so accommodating to our schedule and willing to take on our three cats (who can be a handful!). She updated us regularly while we were on our trip with updates and photos, we which looked forward to every day!”
“Heather was great!!!! She contacted me with problems and sent pictures. She took amazing care of our kitties while we were away. She made a stressful weekend away for us a little easier. We will definitely book her again!!!”
“Lindsey was awesome!! I hired her to take care of my 5 week old kittens + one adult cat for the weekend, and I’m so glad I did! She was punctual on their feeding times, administered oral meds, and was very communicative when I reached out — and even when I didn’t. Definitely recommend!”

“Monica was very accommodating to my schedule the day i needed a dog sitter for my brother's wedding. Luna seemed to play really well with their dogs as well, she slept so hard when she got home! I am more than happy with the care she received and the communication throughout the day!”
About: What sets me apart is the level of care and attention I naturally bring from working as an active CNA. I’m patient, observant, and dependable, and I understand how important trust and consistency are when someone else is caring for a loved one — including pets. I’ve had animals my entire life and currently care for two cats and three dogs of my own, so I’m comfortable with different temperaments, routines, and energy levels. I pay attention to small details, respect each pet’s personality, boundaries and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I do over night shift for my job. I’m available from 8:00am to 10:00pm on the days I work. I’m available all day on my days off. For walks, drop in and so much more with every other weekend care to keep your pets happy, safe, and well cared for! I treat every pet like part of my own family. As a lifelong animal lover with two cats and three dogs, I understand that each pet has a unique personality, routine, and care needs. I’m patient, attentive, and gentle, providing playtime, enrichment, feeding, and potty/litter care while following your instructions carefully. I also provide updates and tons of pictures, probably too many!
“Amanda is an AMAZING dog sitter! She took such good care of our puppy. I was so nervous to leave my puppy for the first time but Amanda did a great job keeping me informed on her day and made me very comfortable. Will definitely be going here again!”
About: Oh my gosh, where to even begin... :) I started and built, Girl Meets Dog Pet Care Services - Chicago, from 2000, through 2018 (I’m relatively new to doing this in the Rover route, so most of my reviews are posted on other sites), when I became too ill with Lyme Disease, and needed to move back to my hometown to be closer to my family until I became well enough to get back on my feet. Now, I have little home in Spicer, MN, with a big deck and a fenced in yard. I work from home (fashion reseller) so it's me and my big sweet Ni'ta Girl, a 9 year old 100 lbs. of Great Pyrenees sweetness), little Henry (dog loving little 4 year old Bichon-Shih Tzu), hanging around here all the time, so we've decided it's time some other sweet kids get to come soak up this perfect dog loving life with us! I so miss having a house filled with 'nieces and nephews' for me to dote on and spoil rotten, so, if your kid deserves to be treated like like true children (or even better than that, in my book ;)), then this is where they belong. I had clients that called it 'going to camp' when they were coming to stay with us (it's just me, and my fur kids here. Note: due to Nita’s senior age, we don’t take any ‘high energy’ doggos at this time, but all others are welcome!). Since I work from home, I am home with my dogs and kitty 95% of the time, so I am able to provide all the love and company to visitor kids they could possibly want. I do daily walks and have a fenced in yard. They own the place. I just live here and dote on them, basically. :) I am almost always here (at most I'm gone for a 4 hour stretch 2-3 times a week).
About: Already when I was 10 years old I had my first foster dog in the neighborhood . The owner went to work all day and so I went after school to her house and picked up Anuschka to go for a walk. We spent the whole day together and I always brought her home when the owner was back from work. For all trips beyond that I charge 50 cents per mile. For Meet and Greets in the owners home I’m charge 50 cents per mile. Your dog /cat is in good hands. I will take good care of your pet. Read my reviews for more information about me. Thank you!

About: I have been an animal lover my entire life! I treat my cats like they are my children and I would do anything for them! I would take care of your fur babies as if they were my own! I also love dogs, I've had many dogs in my family growing up. I don't have the living space needed for a dog while living in an apartment. I would definitely have one if I were able! That's a big reason why you should let me pet sit for you! My availability is pretty open right now. I want to do a little something on the side besides other projects that I'm working on. They say that if you do what you love, you'll never work a day in your life! Pets definitely make me the happiest!! I like to keep the living space clean and sanitized, I clean litter boxes every day. I pick up poop while on dog walks. Also, while dog walking, if there's another dog near and the you're dog seems uncomfortable or threatened, I would move to the other side of the street or walk the other way to remove ourselves from the situation. Most animals, if not all, trust and love me back!
About: My house was known as the zoo. Reptiles, ferrets, birds, a goat, horses, a pony, dogs, cats, prying mantis. I have experience with most kinds of pets. I have helped raise dachshund and fostered dogs and cats. I have three days a week and start work at noon. Plenty of time to watch, or just drop by to make sure they are given some extra love. I have multiple cat towers and walkways for them to explore. I live in an area with lots of walking paths. I have a big yard to play in.
About: I have been around animals my entire 33 years of existence. I grew up raising German Shepard's with my dad. I have no problem working on basic commands and potty training. I work full time (occasionally from home), but I am available to run over to let your animals in or out to potty before work and around lunch time. After 6pm & on weekends, I am home all evening/night so I can keep your fur baby comfortable as well. I have a gated area in my front yard for my own friendly fur babies, they can keep yours entertained. :-) We go on frequent walks when the ground is cool.
About: I can provide a safe quiet home for your pet to visit when you’re away. I work from home and spend the days with our almost 8 year old boxer mix, Aggie. We love taking walks to the park near our home and we have a small fenced in back yard with a privacy fence. Aggie gets along with almost every dog and will sometimes play. She can be pretty vocal when she plays but is otherwise super quiet. She’s a great role model for younger dogs :) I work from home so I am usually home with the pets for most of the day. We take daily walks when the weather is good. We have a large dog crate if your dog needs. Our yard is fenced in and dogs wouldn’t usually be home alone for more than a few hours.
About: I have a lifelong passion for caring for animals, always having a beloved pet by my side. With years of experience as the go-to pet sitter in my family and friend group, I take pride in giving animals my full, undivided attention. I genuinely enjoy spending time walking and playing with all types of pets. I am committed to providing reliable and dedicated care for your pets, anytime and anywhere you need me. As a full-time pet sitter, I’m just one message away, ready to meet your needs. Your pet’s well-being is my top priority. I ensure they are well-fed, hydrated, and never miss a potty break. Daily walks and engaging playtime are always part of the care I provide. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily and weekly routine, as it aligns with my passion for animals and my flexible schedule. Whether it's for my own pets or those I care for as a sitter, I dedicate specific times each day to feeding, walking, and playing with them. My focus is on providing loving, personalized care that meets each pet’s unique needs. I maintain the pet’s routine, following specific instructions for feeding, medication, and exercise.
