“Miko was in good hands! He came home tired and happy because he got to play with a couple of other dogs during his stay. We also had to come home a day early due to bad weather, and she accommodated us with no issue. Highly recommend!”
“Meganne and her family were so nice and took great care of Sport. She listened intently to learn about his medication and made sure she knew what he needed. They took fantastic care of him and he enjoyed hanging with her dogs and being in the country. I recommend Meganne and family to anyone looking for a caring, open-spaced settng for their dog.”
“Joy took such great care of Jax! She sent photos and updates and he looked like he was enjoying his time there. We are looking forward to his next stay at her house!”
“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!”
About: Hi! My name is Sage and I specialize in animal caretaking and welfare. I have lived my entire life with at least one animal in the house and I have been dog sitting on and off since high school. I am certified in three years of dog training and currently live with my lovely cat, London. I’ve never met a pet that I haven’t loved, and past employers would describe me as dependable, easy-going, and kind. Now that I am starting school again, my hours of availability have become a bit slim. However, my weekends are entirely open, and I have enough time between classes to provide service to any animal who needs my attention. In my home, I live with my cat London, and four other housemates. If your animal stayed with me, they would never feel alone and would always have somebody in the house that can watch them or be there for all their needs. We have a lovely backyard full of grass, a back deck for lounging and sunbathing and a large neighborhood for daily walks. Your pet would feel like a king or queen in a castle! :)
About: I’ve had multiple dogs and cats since I was a child, and have been dog/cat/housesitting since 2020. I’m a small business owner (massage therapist and virtual assistant) and former librarian. I’m currently self-employed and have some room in my schedule for additional business so I have several days a week available to dedicate to pet care. We also just recently lost our 17 year old chocolate lab/australian shepherd mix so I will be happy to spend time with your pup. I have yet to meet an animal who doesn’t like me, so we will be bffs in no time! I will keep you as in the loop on how things are going as you would like to be, with pictures and updates. Our cat Finn is very curious about and fond of dogs, so as long as they are ok with him, they should be good buddies.
“My dog was very well token care off and was very happy, she sent videos I could show my daughter that he was doing ok. I would recommend jordan to anyone and well for sure being leaving my dog again with her!”
“Jada did a great job with our dog. She sent many photos to keep us updated. Jada seemed to really love him like he was her own. She had a clean setting to care for him and he got plenty of exercise. I would highly recommendation Jada!”
About: I have fostered any age dog for 3 years! Have a dog of my own for 10 and grew up on a farm with many dogs and cats. Also going to school for a vet tech. I can take on a couple dogs or cats any day of the week. Someone is always home. Have 7 people in the house with 4 adults and 3 teens. I have a fenced yard and a dog friend to play with. Also have 6 other people i. My home to help out. Am very good at calming animals and have reiki experience with animals.
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.

“Was super nice and took perfect care of my cat while I was away. Was my first time on here and she was so nice and helpful with setting everything up. Highly recommend and will definitely be messaging her again when I need someone to watch my cat again.”
“Grace took great care of our two kitties while we were out of town. She paid close attention to detail and was great at sending pictures and updates throughout the visit. One of our cats has asthma meds and the other is a wild child and Grace did great working with both of our kitt-os.”
“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.”
“Addison did exactly what i needed her to. She took care of my dogs and was super flexible with my crazy work schedule. I could tell when i got home by how happy my dogs were that she treated them good! I recommend her to anyone looking to get their dogs cared for!”
“I was so nervous to leave Sophie and tibby for a week, but bri checked in every day and gave them so much love and care. Bri gives THE BEST updates and sends pictures, the little things that make me feel good about leaving our cats. It’s been really enjoyable to read the updates - thank you Bri :)”
“Breanna is very kind and attentive! She sent pictures every time she stopped in and spent a good amount of time playing with and giving our cats attention. Would highly recommend her!”
“Ninna provided the perfect place for Poochie to stay. I was a little worried beforehand because we needed him to stay for more than a month. Yet Ninna and her husband were really nice when I met them and they seemed confident that everything was going to go well. And it did go well! She sent quite frequent updates and pictures. He acclimated right away and was having a great time checking out all corners of the apartment, viewing wildlife out the window, getting alone time, and (mostly) snuggling with every person and animal in the place. I will definitely have Ninna watch any of my pets in the future.”
About: While my main work as a dog walker was regarding dog care, I also provided infrequent care professionally for various cats over the years. I have also lived with cats of roommates and taken care of them like I would my own pet. Beyond that, I've provided care for the felines of friends and family, from kittens who are snuggle bugs to older cats who really just want to nap in their favorite sun spot.
About: I have experience with pit bulls, yorkies, dachshunds, chihuahuas, labs, golden retrievers, huskies, shelties, and more. I’ve taken care of pets all of my life and have a special love for them. I currently am flexible in my schedule and have some availability in many times of the day depending on the needs of my own dog, but still have a lot of availability. I take excellent care of pets like they are my own. A pets safety and happiness is most important to me and I will do everything I can to take care of them.
“Morgan was an excellent caretaker for my cats. She arrived at the expected times and made sure to send photos of what they were up to each day, and she communicated regularly about their habits—e.g., one cat didn’t want her food one day, but soon went back to normal. The cats clearly enjoyed her company, and everything was perfectly in order when I returned home. Morgan also went above and beyond to leave me a hand-written daily log of activities and the cats’ behaviors. I would definitely book Morgan again and recommend her to friends with pets!”
“She did an amazing job watching our cat! She communicated well, was professional, and sent lots of pictures! She went above and beyond by cleaning up the bathroom/litter area when our cat got upset and made a mess. We were really nervous about leaving him alone for an extended period of time for the first time, but she did a great job and we were able to enjoy our vacation because of it!”
About: I have had cats since I was little and would love to take care of one. I will give the cat the attention and love it needs when you are away. I want your cat to feel comfortable and happy.
About: I treat my 2 dogs like children. Spoiled rotten. I enjoy animals more than I enjoy humans. Sorry, not sorry. My special skill is love lol I'm a travel nurse, working in different towns. Need more activities to do on my days off. I usually will have 3 days off. I have my dog with me and know how important he is. He is home. I prefer to go to the clients home and check on your dog and let him to go potty and or go on a walk.
About: I just adopted cats about a year ago and they have totally changed my life. I just love how silly cats can be. I don’t get many opportunities on here to take care of cats, but when I do I’m usually always up for the job.

“I would definitely recommend Heidi to anyone who has a pup in the Mankato area. She took amazing care of Beans! The attention and care she gave to Beans was outstanding! Beans always was happy to go with Heidi and when I went to pick him up. Beans was happy and content with the attention and care he received. Plus the picture updates were always great to see how Beans was doing. I am beyond grateful for the great care and service Heidi provided.”
About: I have worked at my local dog daycare and have experience outside of taking care of my own animals growing up. I have also pet-sat dogs before for family members and friends. 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.
“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!”

About: I have taken care of dogs my entire life. I am part of a rescue and have had many fosters throughout my home, along with many dogs myself. I had a special needs basset hound and loved giving him the extra help he needed during his life. I also have experience with puppies, big dogs, blind dogs, and shy/breeder release! I did train my dogs starting at age 12 as well. Open at any time! Walks, potty breaks, petting session and everything in between! I have very few scheduling conflicts. Available almost all day every day :) With compassion and care. I would take care of your pet as it is needed and however you request! I would treat your animal and home as I would mine.
About: If you are anything like me I find it stressful to leave my fur babies in someone else's care. I can provide a safe loving space for your fur kids to stay. Between a spacious home and a large privacy fenced shaded backyard for them to explore and play, we hope your pups will find our home a relaxing environment to stay. Our pups are our kids and are treated as so. We have owned dogs all of our adult lives and feel we understand dog behaviors. While you are away we will provide around the clock care in a safe loving environment. Whether your pup is a social baby and would like to lounge next to people or more comfortable in there own space I have the ability to meet those needs. Safety is a priority. With the large fenced in backyard, this gives the pups the ability to go outside and do their business, lounge, explore and play without the fear of run offs. Since I have always had dogs and cats it has been a priority to make sure my home is pet safe.
About: I absolutely love dogs of all breeds. I am very familiar with the “bully breeds”, and larger breed dogs. I love cuddles and exploring, playing with toys, and meeting new friends at doggy parks. Working from home allows me to not have to leave your babies home alone for more than a couple of hours if I need to do errands. My 12yr old loves all animals and is willing to keep your babies active or relax and lay around. We can be a very active household, but we like to have a relax day here and there as well. Our favorite time of day is walking or running outdoors. We are pleased to have any age dog around! When your pup is with me, they will be loved and treated as if they have been in the home with us their entire life. I currently work from home so have plenty of flexibility. We have a big yard with plenty of pup toys, we are very observant and make sure everyone is doing good at all times. I am a dog trainer as well so know a lot of different skills to work with most dogs.

About: I was blessed with my border collie when I was 8 years old, she lived for 14 years and unfortunately passed 2.5 years ago. I take any chance I can get to watch my friends dogs and cats while they’re gone! I work during the weekdays until 4 or 5 pm and have most weekends off. I have an hour lunch some days and could check on your fur baby while I’m home. I know the stress of your fur babies getting into things that could harm them while you’re gone, so if you need them crated up I will make sure they get put away!
About: Pet Care Experience: I’ve cared for pets of all kinds—from energetic puppies to gentle seniors—and I pride myself on giving each animal the same love and attention they’d get from their family. I’m experienced with administering medications, following special diets, and providing calm, reassuring care for anxious pets. Whether it’s a long walk, playtime, or quiet companionship, I adapt to each pet’s unique personality and needs. What Sets Me Apart: I focus on building trust through consistency, patience, and clear communication. I take time to learn each pet’s routine and preferences, making sure they feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. My background in handling multiple pets at once and caring for animals with special needs means you can relax knowing your pets are in capable hands. Pet care is a regular part of my daily routine. I plan my days around feeding times, walks, and check-ins to make sure each pet gets the attention and consistency they need. I’m flexible with scheduling and can accommodate afternoon, or evening visits depending on your pet’s routine. Whether it’s daily drop-ins, overnight care, or weekend stays, I make sure your pet’s comfort and routine always come first. If I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat their space with the same respect I’d want for my own. I follow all care instructions closely, keep things tidy, and provide updates so you always know how your pet is doing. Whether it’s sticking to training routines, administering medication, or giving extra cuddles, I adapt to each pet’s personality and comfort level.
“I would definitely recommend Shenice. She handled my wild child like a pro. She kept me informed on everything my dog did and even sent photos. I will definitely be hiring her again in the future.”
About: Hi there! My name is Grace M and I'm a current educator who is available for weekend services OR weekday services, as long as they do not interfere with school hours (7am-4pm) I had a dog for 15 years of my life! Once I was old enough I was able to care for him when my parents were away and whenever I was home. Unfortunately, he passed now, but I went on to adopt two cats who I love very much - one is 5 and one is 2. I've done walks, I've stayed overnight, I've checked in at homes, I do what I can to make sure animals are taken care of in the most efficient way possible! I will make sure your pets enjoy the time that I am with them and I will make sure that you can put them into care that you can trust! As a teacher, I am unavailable during the work week between the hours of 7am to 4pm. I can do any walks or drop ins after those hours. Otherwise, I am free on the weekends, which includes Friday evenings! I have enough toys, trees, and scratchers to make sure my kitties stay entertained and happy. Scheduled feeding and clean litter boxes to make sure everyone stays healthy :)
About: I have had all kinds of animals growing up, I love all animals and am great with any kind!! I can provide great care and comfort to your babies when you’re away :) I currently go to school and work part-time at caribou coffee and will be working at avera brady in the soon as well, I would stay at homes if requested. I check on the animals frequently and make sure they have both food and water. I also make sure they are well taken care of before bed.
About: Hello! I am a life long pet lover and healthcare provider. I live on a farm with lots of fresh air and space to run. I can’t wait to meet your pup! Feel free to message me with any questions or to schedule a meet-and-greet. I work Tuesday -Friday. Also available for potty breaks during the day. I am mostly available on the weekends but could easily make a day during the week work as well. Our yard is not fenced in but we live on a dead end road. Dogs will be leashed while outside and supervised. Pets allowed in house and living room.
About: I’ve done pet sitting jobs growing up, I always had pets growing up that I helped take care of. My 8 month old son also loves dogs. We are a very pet friendly family and hope to get a dog of our own one day. Prefer dogs that are good with kids I’m currently a stay at home mom so me and my son would love to help you by taking care of your animal and giving it some love I have a park really close to me that I can take your pet to on walks. It can hangout and play with us. I have no other dogs or cats.
About: I've had pets my whole life, including dogs, cats, and small animals. I am experienced in their care and am open to all personalities. I am committed to doing everything I can to ensure they are happy and comfortable. I also have experience with senior pets and puppies. I'm currently a student, so I have plenty of time to care for your beloved fuzzy friends. I am available all week days around my class schedule and on weekends. I am willing to care for your pets in any way they need. I am committed to doing everything I can to ensure they are happy and comfortable.
About: I walked dogs with a company for 4 years while living in New York City. The company specialized in individual household care, walking only the dogs of the household at a time. So no mess of leashes, just one-on-one (or two) dogs at a time. (I even got to walk Jimmy Buffett's dogs while working there) I cared for all manner and breed of dog, from ones that never ran out of energy and loved everyone, to dogs that just wanted to sit on the couch and didn't care about other dogs. And before that, my family always had at least one dog around while my mother trained puppies to be service animals. I have also provided care for cats over the years, having lived with them and cared for cats in dog/cat homes. My care for animals runs deep, and I love to see them get what they need to really be happy and healthy. I pay close attention to each animal and try to understand what they need and meet them where they're at, from unruly puppies to senior dogs in their sunset years. I'm currently self-employed, so I'm able to offer flexible availability to best suit the needs of each pet owner. I've grown up around pets and care deeply for their well-being, so I know how important it is for both owners and pets for the animals to get timely care and exercise. Having worked as a professional dog walker (just 1-2 dogs at a time, as to better give individual attention and care), I know how important it is to clients to be able to rely on a caregiver and trust their pet is in good hands. Each animal has their own needs that need to be accounted for, and those needs may change depending on the day or time of year. Being attentive, creative, and willing to go the extra mile means I'm giving each pet the best care I can each time.
About: I have several years of experience from taking care of my own pets as well as other's. I previously owned a cat with a medical condition, so I have medication experience and emergency experience. I have a cat of my own and she gets baths, so you know I am not afraid of a pet being a bit of a handful. But, I added an optional bathing/nail trimming fee of $10, because cat claws are a work hazard. Brushing I am happy to do, every time for free. I have a part time evening job, so I am home most of the day until 4pm - 8pm. I don't go out much, so while in my home, your pet would have constant attention and supervision. My home has two bedrooms, and I converted my second bedroom into a pet room. It provides plenty of space for cats to hang out, including blankets, toys, and a big window to sit in and watch the birds. The bedroom is sectioned off by a gate, but my whole home is open to your pet if they choose to come out. The gate is only there for your pet's privacy, as we have a tortie cat and a corgi dog of our own. They are both very sweet and get along well with cats. We also provide litter box (not litter), food dishes (not food), and toys. But, always feel free to bring your own. And, never hesitate to ask questions!
About: I have been pet sitting for 4 years now, I love it everyday and I hope to expand my little business to more of you. If you have any more questions or want references please let me know. My neighbors just got a new puppy and I help out with her as much as they need. I also foster dogs here and there with my aunt and have tons of dog experience! I am currently free to help out all throughout the day and everyday! My schedule is open right now and I hope to help more of you! I have 2 cats and they just roam free because I trust them. My mom has 2 dogs who I help with almost everyday and my aunt also has 2 dogs so I am around animals everyday and I continue to learn and get better at taking care of them!

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.
About: I have worked at my local dog daycare and have experience outside of taking care of my own animals growing up. I have also pet-sat dogs before for family members and friends. 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.
About: I have grown up in a household full of rescue dogs of every breed and mix. In my neighborhood, neighbors have asked me the past few years to watch their dogs and even some cats. It doesn’t matter the dog, big or little, I’ll be more than excited to make a new furry friend! My current schedule leaves me free time during the evenings so I could be your go-to evening gal! I will be available most nights before your dog’s bed times. I feed them, I can give them medicine, and I especially like to play with them! Come treat time, I like to make them work for their treat!
About: I have experience with animals of all shapes and sizes. I worked in a doggy daycare/boarding facility for about a year. I’m so grateful for that experience because I learned so much. I learned to read doggy body language really well, so I have the utmost confidence that I can help your pup feel comfortable around me! I currently work at a veterinary clinic as a vet assistant. I’ve worked with cats and dogs of all sizes, temperaments and I’ve had my fair share who are picky eaters. So I won’t be offended if your pup doesn’t take treats from me! I have worked with dogs who are confident, and dogs who are shy and just need some extra time to warm up to me. While the puppy appointments are great, I also have gotten a lot of work in with senior pets too! Whether your pup is going to push me out the door to play fetch, or would rather spend some time in the couch getting snuggles and belly rubs, they’ll taken care of just like they were my own fur baby. Hi there! I’m Elizabeth! I currently work from 7:30 - 5 Monday through Thursday. I am currently available for house sitting almost every Friday and weekend. I am available for walks or play times after 6 pm most days Monday through Thursday! I currently have 3 amazing basset hounds and 2 cats that I live with. Our bassets have a fenced in yard, but I’ve also lived with mixed breeds. My mixed breeds have been anywhere from smaller dogs to 100+ pounds! I understand that some pets are cautious around new people. When at work at my veterinary clinic, I take my time with dogs that are more shy. I want all pets I encounter to be my friend, and I know it can take longer with some pets.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs all through my life, including chihuahuas, a yorkie, pit bulls, a dachshund mix, labs, rat terriers, and more. I love to create warm environments for doggos and give them space to be themselves. I currently work part time, but I can pet sit Fridays-Sundays and Thursday afternoons at times. I may be able to do drop-ins during the week. I can dog sit at the client’s houses and am willing to help crate train, gives baths, walks, and provide other various care services. I might be able to at my apartment, but have a dog myself and would likely need a meet and greet.

“Miko was in good hands! He came home tired and happy because he got to play with a couple of other dogs during his stay. We also had to come home a day early due to bad weather, and she accommodated us with no issue. Highly recommend!”
“Meganne and her family were so nice and took great care of Sport. She listened intently to learn about his medication and made sure she knew what he needed. They took fantastic care of him and he enjoyed hanging with her dogs and being in the country. I recommend Meganne and family to anyone looking for a caring, open-spaced settng for their dog.”
“Joy took such great care of Jax! She sent photos and updates and he looked like he was enjoying his time there. We are looking forward to his next stay at her house!”
About: Hi! My name is Sage and I specialize in animal caretaking and welfare. I have lived my entire life with at least one animal in the house and I have been dog sitting on and off since high school. I am certified in three years of dog training and currently live with my lovely cat, London. I’ve never met a pet that I haven’t loved, and past employers would describe me as dependable, easy-going, and kind. Now that I am starting school again, my hours of availability have become a bit slim. However, my weekends are entirely open, and I have enough time between classes to provide service to any animal who needs my attention. In my home, I live with my cat London, and four other housemates. If your animal stayed with me, they would never feel alone and would always have somebody in the house that can watch them or be there for all their needs. We have a lovely backyard full of grass, a back deck for lounging and sunbathing and a large neighborhood for daily walks. Your pet would feel like a king or queen in a castle! :)
About: I’ve had multiple dogs and cats since I was a child, and have been dog/cat/housesitting since 2020. I’m a small business owner (massage therapist and virtual assistant) and former librarian. I’m currently self-employed and have some room in my schedule for additional business so I have several days a week available to dedicate to pet care. We also just recently lost our 17 year old chocolate lab/australian shepherd mix so I will be happy to spend time with your pup. I have yet to meet an animal who doesn’t like me, so we will be bffs in no time! I will keep you as in the loop on how things are going as you would like to be, with pictures and updates. Our cat Finn is very curious about and fond of dogs, so as long as they are ok with him, they should be good buddies.
“My dog was very well token care off and was very happy, she sent videos I could show my daughter that he was doing ok. I would recommend jordan to anyone and well for sure being leaving my dog again with her!”
“Jada did a great job with our dog. She sent many photos to keep us updated. Jada seemed to really love him like he was her own. She had a clean setting to care for him and he got plenty of exercise. I would highly recommendation Jada!”
About: I have fostered any age dog for 3 years! Have a dog of my own for 10 and grew up on a farm with many dogs and cats. Also going to school for a vet tech. I can take on a couple dogs or cats any day of the week. Someone is always home. Have 7 people in the house with 4 adults and 3 teens. I have a fenced yard and a dog friend to play with.

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.
