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


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

“McKayla and Dillon are Star Sitters for a reason: They really care for their guests. They saw our Ozzy did not like their wood floors, so they provided rugs and towels for him to move around on! They are attentive not only to the apparent needs of their house guests, but also make them feel at home by keeping close to home schedules, providing lots of active time/walks, and include important, quiet, "family" time. They are great "pack" leaders! We couldn't be more pleased with the love and care Ozzy received, as well as the accommodations they made to help us with our travel plans. Thanks!”


“Katie is a wonderful pet sitter. She is both professional and reliable. She has alot of experience dog sitting. She even had a spare harness and retractable leash for my dog since I forgot mine when I dropped her off. Mesha was well cared for by Katie and was a happy girl when I picked her up. Katie is my go to dog sitter from now on for Mesha. Thank you Katie!”

“I’ve never left my Smudge before. Kaitlyn you are a God send! Thank you for the videos to reassure me that he was happy. He obviously loves you! I will only call you for my baby! Highly recommend you for anyone that is nervous about leaving their pet!! ❤️”

“My dog was well cared for - even pampered by being allowed to sleep on the humans' bed. She came home happy and a little tired after a weekend with Danielle's 2 much younger, more active, but very gentle dogs. Danielle has a very large, secure yard for the dogs to play in and explore. Between the outdoor space and the young dogs to play with, Flicka got lots of good exercise.”


“This is Lola’s second stay with Patti and Patrick, and she was shown as much love this visit as her first visit! Patti and Patrick recently added a fenced in portion of their yard… which I’m sure Lola took full advantage of while staying with them, if pictures are any indication. Thanks Patti and Patrick!”

“Teresa, Mike, and family took great care of our 2yr old dog, and we are very grateful. Lots of fun playtime with their dog and we appreciated the updates on how the stay was going. Thank you, Teresa and Mike!”

“Ali was great and communicated to us throughout our trip perfectly. She was very flexible, and Piper seemed to have a great time with her and her family! Would love to go back there again next time”

“This was the first time we had the pleasure of working with Monika and family and all I can say is we would 100% use them again! They were so kind and caring and our golden retriever, Willow, had an amazing time there. I got plenty of pictures of her having fun with their other dogs, as well as snuggling with the humans in the household. They were amazing to work with and flexible when our travel plans changed slightly. I would highly recommend booking with this family!”

“Russell and Linda were very accommodating. They took care of my dogs for a long trip I had. They also have a fenced-in yard which is nice for my dogs to run. One of my dogs was having separation anxiety as it's the first time he's away from me for multiple days. He was barking a lot because of the anxiety, and they were understandable of him and consoled him. I'm really thankful for their help.”

“I was extremely happy with Louie’s Christmas stay with Jennifer and her family. She took the best care of him and he felt right at home. I was completely at ease my whole trip. She also communicated really well and sent photos the whole time!”

“Allene took such good care of my bb Sloane! She sent great recaps and the cutest photos each day. She also has two wonderful pups that offered Sloane a lot of friendship and play during her stay and they were gentle with her since she’s little! Would definitely book Allene again!”

“Our dog had a great time with Luke and Rachel. This was our first time leaving him with anyone but family and they made us feel he was safe and well cared for. We loved seeing photos of what he was up to and hearing that he had a good weekend. We are excited to have him stay again in the future!!”

“Lisa kept us updated with pictures and messages, and was a wonderful host to our dog. As new dog owners, it was reassuring to have someone who has experience with dogs and a welcoming home.”


“Ali was great. My golden can be a handful sometimes, particularly with more than one other dog. Ali was in control the whole time and Nieve came home happy and tired.”

“Did a great job with our dog, gave regular updates of how things were going, and sent pictures. Kyle was also quick and responsive with questions and communication. Overall, great stay for our dog!”

“My cat is very attention seeking and loves attention. I got a lovely update from Jeffery each day with pictures of them playing with my cat and snuggling with him. There was one day that my cat was a little off and they gave detailed updates during the visit. He was fine and so nothing else needed to be done. I felt like he was in good hands though. Thank you so much for looking after him and I will definitely use you again in the future!”


“Rylan is an exceptional pet sitter. We have two very skittish cats, one of whom is nearly feral, and she took gentle care not to spook them. She also handled unique litter box issues without batting an eye. She is intelligent, anticipates needs, and highly responsible. I wish I could give her ten stars in this app!”


“LeAnn was very friendly and conscientious with our two cats. She came over before we left to meet them, go over the instructions, and understand where everything is and what needed to be done while we were gone. She spent enough time to play with both cats and give them some much-needed attention. We appreciated her pictures and updates on how the cats were doing. Both of them were comfortable with Leann and were very friendly with her. We are very happy with how she did and plan to use Leann again in the future as our primary cat-care person.”


“Anna has been great! We have peace of mind knowing Anna is taking good care of our kitty while we are away. Our kitty gets nervous around new people but quickly warmed up to Anna. She provides us a recap of each visit and pictures which we love and look forward to receiving. She has also been great by bringing in packages that have been left on our doorstep.”

“Over the years, Julie has watched our cats on multiple occasions. As with the prior instances, everything went flawlessly this time. Knowing that someone like Julie, who is trustworthy, professional, and thoughtful, is looking after our pets is very reassuring.”

“Gavin took great care of our dog, Luna, and my brother’s dog, Ike, over the holiday weekend. He was reliable, communicative, and kept us updated with photos, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. We came home to two happy, well-cared-for pups and would gladly book with Gavin again. Highly recommend! 🐾”


“I had a wonderful experience with Kiana! She took excellent care of my cats and made sure they were happy, comfortable, and well looked after while I was away. I received regular updates and photos, which gave me great peace of mind. It was clear they genuinely cared about my pets and paid attention to their individual needs. I came home to happy, relaxed cats and everything was clean and in great shape. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy pet sitter. Thank you for taking such great care of my furry family!”


About: As much as I love all animals, I am unable to watch your sweet kitty in my home as my husband is quite allergic. However, I have no issue dropping in at your own home to love on all the babies!
“Bryn did a wonderful job taking care of our pets! She paid lots of attention to our elderly cat and sent plenty of pictures and thorough updates. We came back to a happy and healthy boy. Can't recommend enough!”

“Meredith did a great job with our senior dogs. One of our dogs requires twice daily injections. She was very thorough and took the time to understand the best method for delivering the medication.”
“I can’t say enough about how wonderful Rachel is with ours dogs! They are both very particular about who they like and they both loved her right away. She is very reliable and was willing to take on the extra challenges with their health conditions. We’re so lucky we found her on Rover!”

“Lance and Coco immediately bonded. Coco trusted her and I felt comfortable leaving her in Lance's care. Lance followed all my instructions. I would recommend Lance to anyone.”


About: I grew up having all kinds of pets, from small rodents, birds, cats, dogs, geckos, and fish. My love for animals has continued throughout my adult life and my comfortability around all kinds of animals is second to none. I work in private childcare, and am used to both entering into others homes and being respectful and trustworthy, and also provide loving and attentive care in my own home as well. Whether it's walks, cuddles, or reassurance that their parent will be back, your furry, cold-blooded, or feathered baby will be in good hands with me. Strong communication skills as well and as many photo updates as the pet parent would like! Monday through Thursday I leave around 7:45am for work and am back by 11:45 and home the remainder of the day! My 10 year old pup enjoys this schedule 😉 Friday through Sunday I’m home full-time. Lots of time spent playing, cuddling, and spending time relaxing together. I have a 10 year old female (fixed) 40 pound dog that is as sweet as can be and gets along with all animals! No prey drive whatsoever. We love walks, being outside, and cuddling on the couch at the end of the day.

“Grace is an amazing pet sitter. She has a calm, go-with-the-flow energy and was really great with my cats. I was anxious about leaving them, as this was my first trip since they both started medication. Grace provided me with a lot of reassurance and sent me pictures and updates of my cats throughout my trip. I will 100% be booking with Grace again.”

About: I grew up on a farm and my parents were both veterinarians. I love animals and am even tempered. I’ve had a dog my whole life (except during college) and I know how important exercise & companionship are for our furry friends. I’m currently working part-time from home and have lots of time to play & go for walks with your pup. My availability is very flexible. My backyard is fully fenced and a great size. My home is in a central location with great access to walking trails and not too far from the highway.
“Russell and Linda took our dog on short notice. They were a big help. They have a lovely fenced yard and safe protocols in place. He was happy and safe when we picked him up.”

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


“Cate and Tim and Ainsley were great to Murphy and their place was a perfect playground. Murphy came home happy and tired. It was our first Rover and she had no stress. Highly recommend them!”

“Emily took great care of Louie! She sent pictures throughout the day, and made sure that he had lots of outdoor time and cooling off periods in the heat! So grateful that we knew Louie was in good hands!”

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

“Freya always has a great time with Paige and her family! We love that she gets lots of play time, walks, and comes back tired out. We appreciate the fun pics of her day too :-)”

“Phillip was available and willing to take my dog for a couple of days when the plans I had fell through at the last minute, which was such a nice surprise and relief! My little dog is a bit anxious and does not like the cold at all, but he was able to keep him safe, warm and comfy while I was away. Thank you again Phillip!”

About: I love dogs and have a fenced in yard for them to play. 🐾 I am knowledgeable about dog behavior and recognize signs of illness or distress. I have experience with potty training, medication administration, and reinforcing basic training commands. I currently work three days per week and have plenty of time to spend with your pups. My spouse, Chad, is usually home when I’m not available - together we can be flexible with pickup & drop off times. I have a fenced in yard and lots of space inside my home for pups to make themselves comfortable. In my home, pups are welcome on furniture and will receive lots of pets and playtime. I will maintain a safe, clean, and loving environment environment for you pups. ♡

About: I’m confident and comfortable with both dogs and cats, including puppies, senior pets, high-energy dogs, shy animals, and pets that need extra patience or attention. I also have experience with potty training puppies, reinforcing routines and basic commands, and making pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I have worked professionally for years as a pet sitter for a wide variety of animals. This has given me experience and confidence in handling different temperaments, routines, and care requirements. I also grew up homeschooled on lots of land, so pets have been part of my everyday life for as long as I can remember. Because I was home during the day, I spent a lot of time helping with feeding, training, socializing, exercising, and caring for animals of all ages and personalities. What sets me apart is my genuine love for animals, whether they’re my own pets or someone else’s. I truly view animals as part of the family, and I believe every pet deserves individualized care, attention, patience, and love based on their unique personality and needs. I would treat every single pet as if it was my very own fur baby. I recently got married to the love of my life and moved to Mahtomedi! My husband works full time, I, however, have a completely wide open schedule! I have always loved animals and would love to fill my week days with taking care and of other people’s fur babies. Monday- Friday I am available any time of day all day. I am also available on weekends depending on the weekend, so please feel free to reach out and ask if the weekend you’re hoping for aligns with my summer plans. If I am staying in the pets home, I am sure to keep their routine as similarly as their owners do, so that both the pet and the owner feel as safe and comfortable as they can. I would be more than happy to send pictures and videos of their pet to update them on how they are doing. If the pets were in my home, I would do my best to make that temporary transition as smooth and as comfortable for them as possible. Whether that be bringing their own toys or bed, or letting them snuggle in the bed with me if that’s what they are used to. With my schedule being solely dedicated to pet sitting, your pet will never lack attention in whatever ways they need! Whether that’s endless walks and tug of war, snuggles on the couch, or just having a safe hand around to make sure they are picked up after.
About: Hi! My name is Allie and I've spent most of my life loving and caring for pets in multiple different environments over the years. I grew up with a bushel of miniature schnauzers, a few rodents and a snake. In college I took in a feral barn kitten and made her the talk of the university! After college, I spent 5-6 years working in a dog daycare facility which gave me experience with all different breeds and an immense amount of knowledge on behavior. After doggy daycare I moved on to working in a veterinary hospital which was an incredible resource and opportunity for me to increase me knowledge on medications as well as other medical knowledge. I would love to have the opportunity to spoil your pet as well as give you a safe space to leave your furry friend! Over the summer I am out of work and home with my pups and kids. In late August I will be headed back to work at a school nearby but working relatively short hours. We love to go on walks, to the dog park, the human park or just lounge in the back yard. I live in a 4 bedroom house with a large back yard. It is not fenced in but I do have a long line. I have a 12 year old pup who is a calm, unbothered queen and a year old pup who loves everyone and everything. In addition, I have 2 kiddos that are incredibly respectful of other pets space and will love your pets as much as their own however they can be crated if needed 😉
“Rachel did a great job with our dog! She was very responsive and flexible. Daisy was so excited to see her on our second visit and gave her tons of kisses. Highly recommend!”

About: Hi! My name is Meredith, a devoted canine enthusiast and dedicated dog walker based near St.Paul, MN! With over ten years of experience caring for dogs of many breeds and sizes, I’m committed to giving your pup the exercise, attention, and love they deserve. My dog Sven loves walks, and together we have dabbled in barn hunt and agility, as well as obedience classes. My 30-minute walks are tailored to your pup’s energy level, whether they need a leisurely stroll or an energetic jaunt. I prioritize safety, fun, and personalized care, ensuring your dog comes back happy and ready for a nap. As a reliable and trustworthy walker, I’ll keep you updated with photos and notes from our walks. Book with me today! Starting August 11th I go back to school so my schedule will be different. I do not start work until mid morning so I like to do a morning walk and another after dinner if the weather is nice. I have a fenced-in yard and two smaller, friendly dogs that love to play. When the weather allows, there are great areas to walk dogs in my neighborhood.
About: I grew up on a farm and helped take care of animals since as far back as I can remember. I have done various pet sitting and house sitting jobs over the years, live with a dog and puppy, and I had my own cat for a decade. I am comfortable in the city and the country. Pet owners have commented many times that their pet warms up to me faster than other people. I am a nurse during the day, so it is in my nature to pay attention to details and be a caregiver of both the human and furry variety. I split my time between Eastern MN and Northwestern WI, but primarily live in WI. I often work as a team with my boyfriend, his service dog, and the puppy we are training to be a service dog. We both are highly experienced house and pet sitters and he is especially good at helping anxious or higher needs dogs. His service dog gets along with other dogs. He is also on Rover and trains dogs. We all would be more than happy to do a meet and greet to see if you were open to these visitors. I believe in basic trust and honesty, and making you and your pet as comfortable as possible. I am a good communicator that can follow a plan, but that is also flexible and adaptable to the needs of a pet or family. I like to make sure that everyone is on the same page with expectations and daily communication when caring for your pet or home. Something that carries over from my nursing background is I will leave you a detailed log of what happened while your beloved pet(s) were in my care, to give an extra layer of peace of mind.
About: I have been a dog groomer for over 5 years, and am looking for a way to get more time working with animals. I have been working with animals as a petsitter for 15 years (from dogs and cats to reptiles and fish), and owned my own pets longer then that. I currently own a dog, two cats, some fish, a hermit crab and train/spoil two horses for a rescue organization. In the past ive also owned guinea pigs, hamsters and crayfish. I especially love working with special needs and nervous animals who need a calm handler. I have experience bathing, training, socializing, caring for, and walking animals in my local shelters. I also have a degree in animal science, so i am up to date with the current science of animal care. Whatever you are looking for, im happy to help. Currently i make my schedule as needed. I groom dogs when i can but in my free time am looking to pick up any time you may wish to book with me. Give me a few days in advance and i can usually make time to help you out. Pets in my home will be given three outings a day as long as the weather allows. These may be walks, dog park trips, field trips to pet stores, hikes, etc. Whatever you are comfortable with. More potty breaks if needed or asked. My current dog gets fed twice a day but i can follow your own schedule for your pups. Im pretty flexible, just let me know what you prefer. My apartment already has a dog and two cats, so animals staying at my place must be friendly. If i care for your dog at your home, just let me know what you are looking for. I can usually move my schedule around to give your dog the care you wish for. I love my pets like family, so never feel like you are asking too much when it comes for your pets care, I know how important they are
About: I have always been a pet lover; I've had pets my whole life. Including cats, dogs, fish, reptiles, and even rats! I have experience dog/cat sitting with my Mom who was a vet tech for 25 years. I currently have a Crested Gecko, a Pac-man Frog, a White’s Tree Frog, a PitX, and 2 kittens! I’m currently available every day, with the exception of Wednesdays and Sundays from 6 PM to 8 PM due to family commitments. I’m flexible and happy to work with your schedule whenever possible! The safety and happiness of every pet in my care is my top priority. I maintain clear communication with owners, offering regular updates and photos of your pet’s adventures. By understanding each pet’s unique personality and needs, I create a trusting bond. I approach every walk with care and attention, ensuring your dog feels safe, loved, and excited to get out for their daily exercise.

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

“McKayla and Dillon are Star Sitters for a reason: They really care for their guests. They saw our Ozzy did not like their wood floors, so they provided rugs and towels for him to move around on! They are attentive not only to the apparent needs of their house guests, but also make them feel at home by keeping close to home schedules, providing lots of active time/walks, and include important, quiet, "family" time. They are great "pack" leaders! We couldn't be more pleased with the love and care Ozzy received, as well as the accommodations they made to help us with our travel plans. Thanks!”


“Katie is a wonderful pet sitter. She is both professional and reliable. She has alot of experience dog sitting. She even had a spare harness and retractable leash for my dog since I forgot mine when I dropped her off. Mesha was well cared for by Katie and was a happy girl when I picked her up. Katie is my go to dog sitter from now on for Mesha. Thank you Katie!”

“I’ve never left my Smudge before. Kaitlyn you are a God send! Thank you for the videos to reassure me that he was happy. He obviously loves you! I will only call you for my baby! Highly recommend you for anyone that is nervous about leaving their pet!! ❤️”

“My dog was well cared for - even pampered by being allowed to sleep on the humans' bed. She came home happy and a little tired after a weekend with Danielle's 2 much younger, more active, but very gentle dogs. Danielle has a very large, secure yard for the dogs to play in and explore. Between the outdoor space and the young dogs to play with, Flicka got lots of good exercise.”


“This is Lola’s second stay with Patti and Patrick, and she was shown as much love this visit as her first visit! Patti and Patrick recently added a fenced in portion of their yard… which I’m sure Lola took full advantage of while staying with them, if pictures are any indication. Thanks Patti and Patrick!”

“Teresa, Mike, and family took great care of our 2yr old dog, and we are very grateful. Lots of fun playtime with their dog and we appreciated the updates on how the stay was going. Thank you, Teresa and Mike!”

“Ali was great and communicated to us throughout our trip perfectly. She was very flexible, and Piper seemed to have a great time with her and her family! Would love to go back there again next time”

“This was the first time we had the pleasure of working with Monika and family and all I can say is we would 100% use them again! They were so kind and caring and our golden retriever, Willow, had an amazing time there. I got plenty of pictures of her having fun with their other dogs, as well as snuggling with the humans in the household. They were amazing to work with and flexible when our travel plans changed slightly. I would highly recommend booking with this family!”

“Russell and Linda were very accommodating. They took care of my dogs for a long trip I had. They also have a fenced-in yard which is nice for my dogs to run. One of my dogs was having separation anxiety as it's the first time he's away from me for multiple days. He was barking a lot because of the anxiety, and they were understandable of him and consoled him. I'm really thankful for their help.”

“I was extremely happy with Louie’s Christmas stay with Jennifer and her family. She took the best care of him and he felt right at home. I was completely at ease my whole trip. She also communicated really well and sent photos the whole time!”

“Allene took such good care of my bb Sloane! She sent great recaps and the cutest photos each day. She also has two wonderful pups that offered Sloane a lot of friendship and play during her stay and they were gentle with her since she’s little! Would definitely book Allene again!”

“Our dog had a great time with Luke and Rachel. This was our first time leaving him with anyone but family and they made us feel he was safe and well cared for. We loved seeing photos of what he was up to and hearing that he had a good weekend. We are excited to have him stay again in the future!!”

“Lisa kept us updated with pictures and messages, and was a wonderful host to our dog. As new dog owners, it was reassuring to have someone who has experience with dogs and a welcoming home.”


“Ali was great. My golden can be a handful sometimes, particularly with more than one other dog. Ali was in control the whole time and Nieve came home happy and tired.”

“Did a great job with our dog, gave regular updates of how things were going, and sent pictures. Kyle was also quick and responsive with questions and communication. Overall, great stay for our dog!”

“Jessica was the best! After a bit of a fiasco with another sitter, Jessica came through last minute and was a great back up. I will absolutely book her again. Our dog came home absolutely exhausted, but so happy, and we can't thank her enough for helping us out this weekend!”

“Katie was amazing, not only did she take wonderful care of our dogs, she went above and beyond when we had car trouble. Katie offered to keep our dogs an extra night to allow us time to get home safely. Thank you Katie and family for taking car of our boys while we were away.”


“Sierra welcomed our dog for a great weekend play date. We appreciated that she was able to offer flexibility with drop off and pickup times since we were driving from a few hours away with a toddler. Gadget returned to us happy and we know from the pictures that he had a ton of fun playing and sun bathing with her dog.”
