“Stacy is a wonderful dog sitter. My dog looked great and like she fit in well. Stacy sent me pictures daily and I felt very comfortable with Chloe staying at her house. Stacy was easy to communicate with and let us visit her home prior to booking. I definitely would like to have her watch my Chloe again!”
“Charlie loved spending the day with Drew and his family! You can tell they are a dog loving family! Charlie loved lap time and interacting with Drew’s family. We’re heading back for a weekend stay soon.”
“Georgie did a fantastic job caring for my two pups while my husband and I had our wedding in Stillwater! She is very sweet and treated our dogs like her own. We got updates and pictures everyday, and she was very responsive. I would definitely recommend trusting Georige to care for your pets. 🩷”
“Jennifer was amazing!!! She took such precious care of our Mayo buddy! She responded so quickly, allowed for last minute booking, and sent updates the entire time! Mayo loved playing with the Corgis! He never gets to play with dogs his size so he loved that! They had lots of sunshine and outdoor time! We will use Jennifer again!”
“Brooke did an excellent job taking care of my dog, Bruno. He’s a large German Shepherd and can be pretty anxious in new situations, but she handled him with patience and care. She clearly knows what she’s doing and took extra time to make sure he was comfortable. She also kept me updated throughout the day, which I really appreciated. Everything went smoothly, and I wouldn’t hesitate to trust her with him again.”
“Tyler was quick with his communication and made me feel comfortable about leaving my 4-legged kid with him. My dog fell asleep on the 20 minute car ride home so I knew she got some good exercise.”
“Andrea is great! She is very responsive and sent me a lot of photos while caring for my senior small dog. She pays close attention to instructions and medications.”
“Elizabeth was wonderful and very accommodating! If we ever are in Red Wing and need boarding we will definitely call Elizabeth! She is a great communicator and sent pictures of our Buster and Teddy!!”
“So great and so easy. She could tell our pup was anxious via her doggy cam and came home early to help settle her. I would not have expected that and am so grateful. Definitely hope to be in touch again!!”
“David was great to work with and we felt very comfortable leaving our pup in his hands. He consistently communicated with us providing updates which gave us peace of mind that Bo was in good company & care.”
“Cindy was fantastic with our dog Oscar! She sent me updates and pictures which was awesome to have on our vacation to make sure he was doing well. Cindy went the extra mile and was flexible with our schedule. Would totally recommend her and would have her watch Oscar anytime (and we have three times already :)”
“Andria and her family are simply phenomenal rover sitters. Our dog has severe storm anxiety and we left during a very stormy week. They were incredibly accommodating to his needs including unfortunate GI issues. They treat him as their own and when we went to pick him up he didn’t want to come with us and preferred to stay on the stairs getting pet and loved by them. Absolutely recommend them to anyone seeking a home away from home for their pup.”

About: Hey all! My name is Mylissa and I am located in Red Wing, MN. I’m back on this app after a hiatus as my job had become more flexible! I have grown up around dogs of all sizes (from St. Bernards to Mini Yorkies), and love to give attention to all. I love walking, so why not do it with a dog!? I also am a dog poop baggie carrier and will clean up after your dog. I have volunteered with humane societys and local shelters, I have attended 2 hour dog walking safety and procedures classes for four years, and would walk shelter dogs biweekly in college. Unfortunately my life currently doesn’t have the time a dog deserves, so this is a great way to spend time with dogs and help out their owners. I currently do have three cats, a 5 year old and two 3 year olds adopted from humane society! I love furbabies of all kinds and would love to spend time with your kitty as well. Any questions please do ask! I currently work from home and am able to cater my schedule around walks if needed (with notice)! I am able to work from your home as well if house sitting as long as there is WiFi/excellent cellular data for hotspotting. I can crate dogs, leash/harness them, give medication, clean up house accidents, or give hard/soft/homemade food. If there is ever a situation I am not comfortable I will immediately reach out, just ask!
“Madysen was great! She cared for our elder cat who needs medication daily. She sent us updates and photos daily and made us feel much more comfortable leaving our baby home alone.”
“Thank you Elizabeth for taking great care of our Jocko (about 17 years old). You were able to carry out his routines in/outside the house very well. So when we returned, I think he was a happy camper during our 20 day away vacation. This was the first time he would be left alone (without the usual many family members to overlap with care), so this local care giving plan with Rover.com worked out very well. I was reassured with photos and texts of visits as requested and Elizabeth provided the personal care for Jocko a senior cat and he is a happy cat.”
About: I love my fur babies, and I can’t wait to meet yours! My goal is for my clients to have peace of mind while they’re away, and know their pets are being well taken care of by a trustworthy person. Being away from our fur babies is hard—I get it! Be prepared to get lots of cute photos of your animals and updates during their time with me. I work Monday through Friday until 4:30pm so I can provide evening care during the week, and I am available all hours on the weekends. I am well versed in how to take care of both dogs and cats, having 2 cats of my own. I will make sure I provide the utmost care in your home and provide a safe and calming space for your babes.
“Samantha was absolutely great! She stopped in and took care of our four cats for a week while we were on vacation . Two of them needed medications daily. Samantha also cleaned the cat boxes and watered our outdoor flowers. We couldn't have been happier with the way she handled it all. We wouldn't hesitate to use her again and will definitely recommend her to others. Thank you Samantha!”
About: I've taken care of all my friends and family's pets. Everyone relies on me to make sure proper care of their animals are taken. I go above and beyond of what is asked. I am available any day Monday through Sunday between the hours of 7am to 9pm. However,, I am more than flexible for certain circumstances though. I offer everything between taking the pets for walks, bringing them outside, playing with them, feeding and providing them water. I can even bathe them and train them if necessary.
About: I am a Retired Veterinary Technician. I have owned cats for 30 years. I can care for those with special needs. I have a large fenced in yard for those that like a bit of outdoor time. I have spacious rooms with large windows if that's what your kitty prefers. A clean and safe environment with lots of attention. I have been trusted to enter my neighbors' homes and care for their furry family members. Whether daily or while you take a much needed vacation.
About: I have had two cats for 12 years which is where my experience has come from. This ranges from litter boxes, play time, vet visits, and working with the animal to ensure they feel safe and cared for. I had two dogs growing up, and know the bare bone basics. I’m always open to learning and I do so quickly. With all the pets I’ve had throughout my life, I know how much of a family member they are. I will do everything I can to make sure they feel safe, and the human feels at ease. My full time gig is 7am-3pm M-F. During the week services will be completed after 3pm. Weekends I have an open schedule and my times are more flexible. I believe pets are family members, and I treat them with love, respect, and care like they are my own. I care about their stress levels, if they trust me, and keeping that trust. It’s fun to watch their personalities show, but also respect their boundaries. I’m not shy with cleaning up messes, taking initiatives, and keeping lines of communication open. I love receiving pictures from pet sitters to see how happy and cared for my fur babies are and will be sure to return the favor to other pet parents.
About: I’ve grown up around animals my whole life. From a young age I’ve helped family and neighbors take care of their pets. I currently have a black German Shepard puppy, a 10 year old Alaskan Malamute, and an orange American Shorthair cat all of which are girls. I’m currently working part time in the evenings Monday through Thursday so I’ll have plenty of time for taking care of your fur babies! I don’t work Friday through Sunday which leaves my weekends open! I’m very attentive to my animals and I’ll be the same with your animals. I’m well equipped to different to different energy levels as I’ve had a variety of different breeds. If your pet stays with me, I have a fenced yard. My animals are friendly as well.
“We are so happy to have had Shurie come by to visit with our cats this weekend. So nice to be able to get away and know that your family is in good hands. We so appreciate Shurie!! She is so nice, and the cats loved her. Thank you so much Shurie, we thank you very, very much!!”

“First time at doggy daycare for our 7 yr old Chi mix - both he and our puppy were well cared for and arrived home this evening tired snd happy. Knowing they were safe made our time away worry free! Thank you Stacy for a great experience.”
About: I have been a pet sitter for many years. Also, I have always had a dog and cat of my own since I was a young child. I will treat your pet as if it was my own. I feel it's important that animals get exercise and will take your dog for walks and make sure they are comfortable and happy. Your pet will get lots of love in my home!! I work from home and can attend to them anytime. I will walk them as I do for my own dogs. They will get to play outside in a large wooded area. I live out in the country on 8 acres. You pet will be in paradise! Your pet will sleep in my home. My other dogs are friendly. They are used to having other dogs stay with us. I can also care for your pet in your home.
About: When it comes to pets, I know they can be our babies and we want the best care for them. I love all size dogs, big ones don't scare me they only seem to have big hearts. I'd love to help out and check on your fur babies while you are away or at work. I am available early in the morning before I go to work to check on pets and feed them and in the early evenings. Weekends I have more time to visit and care for pets. If you have specific crate instructions, I will follow them to ensure your pet is safe and happy. I live on a couple of acres, but do have dog leash and cable if needed.
“Rhea was fantastic with Dodger! I needed a sitter within two hours of reaching out to her and she made it happen. Very grateful for her. She's great, trust her with your pup.”
“Matt and Angela took great care of my dog Osi! Osi and their dog, Alfie, had so much fun together. Osi is definitely looking forward to his next play date. Highly recommend Matt and Angela!”
“Andria's family and dog are all very friendly towards my puppy. Nori had a blast there. He got home and fell asleep within 30 minutes, so I didn't have to spend a lot of time playing with him in the evening:) Andria also captured a few great photos of Nori running in the snow with his new friend. Love the photos!”
“Incredibly accommodating, as Mayo was not. David worked around our ever changing and opaque interactions with Mayo. The care was so attentive I am not sure our pooch was ready to leave. We have never boarded our (abused) rescue dog and David’s care made this part of our Rochester experience absolutely calming and care free. If I could give seven stars I would and I am sure our dog would agree. Job well done. Thank You”
“I absolutely loved my experience with Andrew. My husband had major surgery and our Winnie got a little stir crazy at the hotel. Andrew treated her with such love and care. He treated her like one of his pack members. I have never left my dog with anyone but family before so I was a little nervous. After a couple pictures and texts from Andrew I could tell he had been spending quality time with Winnie and knew her quirky personality. We have to come to Mayo Clinic often for testing and I will not hesitate to use Andrew's services again!! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!”
About: Relocated here from Iowa. Enjoy working with different dogs. Pet lover. I completed 6 months of Veterinarian Assistant classes online. Life happened and I had to take a pause. But I am thinking about going back and finish obtaining my associates degree in the field. So whether it be house sitting with the animals or simply doing some walking or activities, I don't mind and will enjoy my time with them. Its something I enjoy as one of my hobbies. I am available during the week days. Every other weekend I work night shift at this time. I enjoy play time with pets because they too have different personalities. Love Dogs. We cuddle mostly and play. Take walks outside. Play fetch with their toys. It's cool to go to the backyard and be socialable with nature. I think it helps with sensory awareness.
“Kimberly has been great with my 2 dogs and is very accommodating for them. I get updates during the day and she goes into detail during pickup on how they did. They always come home happy and that makes me happy knowing they are in good hands!”
“I sent my dogs for a fun daycare day and they came back so tired! I know they had a wonderful day. Kelsey was super sweet and informative, also sending pupdates throughout the day.”

About: Hi, I'm Kay! I am a professional animal caretaker with 12+ years of paid experience. I am a HUGE animal lover. Along with my professional background, I've also cohabitated with and personally cared for dozens of animals throughout my lifetime. I currently live with my leash-trained kitty, Vada, who has travelled all around the USA with me! Some animals I've worked closely with include: dogs, cats, hamsters, degus, rabbits, guinea pigs, fish, turtles, frogs, goats, pigs, cows, turkeys, chickens, ducks, horses, donkeys, sheep, snails, and llamas. While I love ALL animals, I definitely have a special place in my heart for cats and chickens! I am a fast learner and a competent person, so I am confident that with a little guidance, I can appropriately care for pretty much any species! I would love to get more hands-on experience with fish, bunnies, animals with disabilities, and any type of reptile. I plan to have my own animal sanctuary one day, so am always looking to expand on my animal knowledge. <3 I have a fully-enclosed double pet stroller that I would be happy to share with my smaller clients. While I am not a professional cat trainer, I have taught my own two to walk on leashes, so I would be open to working with your felines if that's something that you feel could enrich their lives. Not all cats find it enjoyable! When boarding, your pet will be in my home with me, and/or I have a separate room for visitors that may be more stressed out in a new environment. I work from home, so I am almost always around to supervise. I can walk, play, clean litter boxes, change diapers, bathe, clean cages, administer medication, and/or just provide company for your non-human pals. If you're unsure if I can provide a specific service, don't hesitate to ask. I understand that animals are individuals with different needs and quirks. I am flexible, and can work with the specific needs of your companion animal. :) I recently relocated to Stockton, so I am looking for new, hopefully long-term, clients in the area. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions. Information here is to give general idea of my services/prices, but am flexible! I work from home, and my schedule is very flexible for pet sitting. I am able to work with my clients on whatever best suits their needs. Every animal is an individual with different needs, so I always meet my clients where they're at. I prefer pet sitting within the animals' own homes as I've found most everyone is more at ease in a familiar environment. When boarding in my own home, I ask pet parents to pack all of the essentials from home such as- beds, toys, snacks, crates, puzzle feeders, a shirt that smells like someone they love, etc. I love to take photos and share updates as often as requested, but usually at least once a day.
About: I have experience caring for my family’s dogs as well as my boyfriend’s dog while their owners are out of town. I ensure they are taken outside for bathroom breaks before coming inside, maintain a consistent feeding schedule, and always make sure they have fresh food and water. I also enjoy working with dogs on basic training and have successfully taught my own dog commands such as “sit” and “shake.” I’m currently working full time at a daycare in Byron MN. I’m free anytime after 5pm-9pm on most weeknights and I’m available anytime on the weekends! I care for pets like they’re my own. I make sure pets are well feed and have water. I make sure to keep an eye on them well outside.
About: I have two amazing cats currently and grew up with dogs and cats. I have pet sat for my own animals growing up as well as family members. Last year is when I began pet sitting for my neighbor and recently I have done two four day stays with a dog and two cats. I loved spending time with their dog as I can't have one of my own at the apartment that I currently live at. I also love playing with cats, and of course snuggling both kinds of animals (it's the best thing in the world). I currently do college online and am an aspiring small business owner of crochet goods, both of these things I can do from anywhere so longer in home stays are not a problem. I currently am an online college student and an aspiring crochet small business owner, both things, I am able to do from anywhere. I have pretty much no days I can't be with animals besides Tuesday mornings. I aspire to make sure the animals are comfortable and happy at all times. I love brushing them, playing with them, and of course, providing snuggles. I don't personally have a dog, but I grew up with one and always loved giving her walks.
“My wife and I recently moved to red wing and have used Samantha as our go-to sitter/walker. She has been awesome! She’s punctual, responsive, and affordable. Not to mention great with the dogs! They are always happy to see her. We are very glad to have found Samantha and cannot recommend her enough.”
About: I’m a caring person who loves dogs and grew up with a lab. I have experience with taking care of friends puppies and senior dogs. I love to play hard with them so they can sleep good for you!

I’m happy to transport pets and have them stay at my apartment for up to a week. I will provide long walks with them on leash and follow procedures at a client’s home. Making sure that the pet is comfortable is a top priority for me.

About: I’ve had dogs consistently in my house since I was born. We have had big german shorthairs, as well as miniature schnauzers so I’m accommodating to any size dog, and can easily take care of them. I’ve just returned from school abroad and am back looking for a full-time job but in the meanwhile will be petsitting/walking/etc. whenever is asked of me. I have a pretty free schedule, so most any booking should work. I would be super considerate of any rules applied by the owners whether in the clients home or mine. I just have a lot of fun bonding and playing with animals, so I’m happy to perform all pet care servcies.

About: I grew up around livestock and all sorts of other animals. I recently lost my own dog but when I had her I used Rover to help find a regular dog sitter for when I went on teacher conferences. I recently became trained in dog and cat CPR and first aid. I am not afraid to give medications to an animal and have taken care of dogs that have special needs such as anxiety, fear of fireworks, fear of guns and high energy. I am currently on a teaching schedule but after memorial day I will be available most days. If I am away during the summer it's usually just during the day. They will take first priority, getting food, water, any medications prescribed and taken to go outside will all take place before my needs. I can provide a kennel at my home and kennel trained my own dog understanding the process for that.
About: I'm familiar with several different sizes and breeds of pets. Some dogs, some cats. I'm used to always having a pet around. I enjoy spending time with pets. I'm currently doing what I can for work on my own. I'm hoping pet care can become another thing I do. Let me know what you need accomplished and when. I will do my best to keep your pets on a similar schedule as they are used to. I will also do my best to keep the pets comfortable.
About: Hi there! My name is Savannah, and I recently moved to the area! I grew up around dogs/cats of all kinds my whole life and have previous experience with dog sitting for friends while they were away on trips. I’ve also volunteered at my local animal shelter, where I spent time caring for and walking both dogs and cats. You don’t need to worry about traveling, as I have my own vehicle to travel. Because I work part time at a clinic, I’m available only afternoons and nights during the week. However, I'm available all day during the weekends. If you need a sitter, I would be unavailable to take them to my own house, but can stop in/stay at your place. Caring for an pet greatly depends on the pet themselves and the owner's desires. I love to play and be active with the animals if allowed. If a pet is older and doesn't like to be active for long, I enjoy just spending the quality time so they aren't lonely while their owner is away. I also always check in with the client about their pet's basic needs, such as how much they are fed and how often, how often they are let out, if there is any needs for any disabilities, etc.
About: I’ve loved dogs as long as i can remember, I’ve been around dogs my whole life, had a Labrador Retriever growing up. My passion really began when neighbors would start asking me to dog sit for them. I always knew I wanted to do something with animals (mainly dogs.) a family friend told me about Rover & I immediately knew I had to become a sitter. I am very trustworthy and reliable & easy to reach! I currently do not have any pets in my home which makes me a great sitter if your dog isn’t a fan of other dogs/animals!

As a self-employed entrepreneur, I have the flexibility to seamlessly integrate pet care into my daily and weekly routine. This allows me to dedicate ample time and attention to your furry family during their stay. Whether it's providing companionship, engaging in playtime, or adhering to their feeding and exercise schedules, I ensure that your pet receives the care and love they need. My adaptable schedule means your pet will never feel alone, and I can provide consistent support and companionship throughout their time with me. In my home, your pet's safety and comfort are my top priority. I have a secure, fenced yard where they can play and explore freely. My space is designed to accommodate your furry friend with plenty of room to relax. If you prefer, I can crate your dog for added security, or we can allow them to roam comfortably without a crate during their stay. Rest assured, your pet will feel safe and at home in my care.

“Stacy is a wonderful dog sitter. My dog looked great and like she fit in well. Stacy sent me pictures daily and I felt very comfortable with Chloe staying at her house. Stacy was easy to communicate with and let us visit her home prior to booking. I definitely would like to have her watch my Chloe again!”
“Charlie loved spending the day with Drew and his family! You can tell they are a dog loving family! Charlie loved lap time and interacting with Drew’s family. We’re heading back for a weekend stay soon.”
“Brooke did an excellent job taking care of my dog, Bruno. He’s a large German Shepherd and can be pretty anxious in new situations, but she handled him with patience and care. She clearly knows what she’s doing and took extra time to make sure he was comfortable. She also kept me updated throughout the day, which I really appreciated. Everything went smoothly, and I wouldn’t hesitate to trust her with him again.”
“Tyler was quick with his communication and made me feel comfortable about leaving my 4-legged kid with him. My dog fell asleep on the 20 minute car ride home so I knew she got some good exercise.”
“Elizabeth was wonderful and very accommodating! If we ever are in Red Wing and need boarding we will definitely call Elizabeth! She is a great communicator and sent pictures of our Buster and Teddy!!”
“David was great to work with and we felt very comfortable leaving our pup in his hands. He consistently communicated with us providing updates which gave us peace of mind that Bo was in good company & care.”
“Cindy was fantastic with our dog Oscar! She sent me updates and pictures which was awesome to have on our vacation to make sure he was doing well. Cindy went the extra mile and was flexible with our schedule. Would totally recommend her and would have her watch Oscar anytime (and we have three times already :)”
“Andria and her family are simply phenomenal rover sitters. Our dog has severe storm anxiety and we left during a very stormy week. They were incredibly accommodating to his needs including unfortunate GI issues. They treat him as their own and when we went to pick him up he didn’t want to come with us and preferred to stay on the stairs getting pet and loved by them. Absolutely recommend them to anyone seeking a home away from home for their pup.”
“Took great care of my dog, Scout!! Took the time to find out about her needs, routines and behavior. I knew right away she would be in wonderful hands. Definitely would recommend!!”
“Alisha took great care of Cooper and Collins over the last week! The dogs got a lot of time at the local dog park and had some down time too (hanging out at home with her sweet dog). They got some extra treats and chews. Alisha sent pics of the dogs throughout the week, and they always looked so happy! It definitely makes a difference when you know your dogs are well taken care of…I think they had just as much fun on their “vacation” as we did on ours! I would rebook with Alisha without reservation for future care needs! She was also located in a great spot for us (could drop them off easily on our way to the cities/up north).”
“I had a great experience leaving my 2 dogs with Donna. One of my dogs is older and anxious but she took excellent care of him. She has a big yard with plenty of room for the dogs to run and get exercise. I loved that she sent pictures and updates every few days while I was gone. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter.”
About: I’m a caring person who loves dogs and grew up with a lab. I have experience with taking care of friends puppies and senior dogs. I love to play hard with them so they can sleep good for you! I can walk dogs before I go to work and, take them out immediately when I get back home. I will also make sure they are being fed at the right times. I’m happy to transport pets and have them stay at my apartment for up to a week. I will provide long walks with them on leash and follow procedures at a client’s home. Making sure that the pet is comfortable is a top priority for me.
