“Robert was the perfect host for Bambi she was so well taken care of and I had so much peace of mind with him. Thank you so much for taking care of my girl!”

“Betsy took great care of my puppy, Bramble! She happily did it knowing that Bramble had sutures from a recent surgery that required extra care. She worked with her on house manners, crate training, and even taught her how to shake! I will definitely be booking with Betsy again.”

“Best dog sitter ever! My two dogs loved their time here. She took them to the dog park plenty of times, reached out with concerns and provided pictures and videos. I would love to leave them with her anytime I need to!”

“Lan did a great job caring for Martha and Susan! The picture update was appreciated, but girls looked very happy. Lan’s dog, Lucy, was adorable and friendly.”

“Wonderful sitter! My dog loved hanging out with Liam! Great sitter and great updates throughout the whole boarding time! Highly recommend! This is my first time using Rover, but because of Liam, I will for sure be using him and this site again! Thanks for an amazing first experience for both Max and I”

“I highly recommend Jessie. She was so great to our dog Ivy; she took her on walks, car rides, to Bachman's, and gave Ivy treats (approved by us). Jessie sent us updates every single night with lots of pictures. Ivy definitely missed Jessie once she got back home 🥰”

“Tori was well taken care of during her stay at Susie’s. Susie is delightful and enjoys keeping dogs. You can see by her enthusiasm and sense of pride in her care. Definitely will use her again.”

“Catherine and her husband took excellent care of our dog. Very communicative with pics, video and messages. Made us feel very relaxed with the care of one of our family.”

“Fantastic experience for me! Drop off and pick up were a breeze. They sent me some photos while I was away and treated my pooch like their own. Will definitely book with them again!”
“can't say enough about the care that my dog Moose got from KiirstenC while I traveled over the holiday. ! It was our first experience with Rover. Moose was well fed, played with, snuggled, and truly loved by Kiirstenn and her family. She sent me texts and pictures while I was gone updating me on his activities. Moose is a Shih Tzu, Kiirsten's dog is also a Shih Tzu. She gets us! I can honestly say that I did not worry about Moose all the while I was gone. I would call upon Kiirsten to leave Moose with whenever I need to travel again, knowing he is loved and well taken care of when I cant be with him.”

“Gabi and Tommie were wonderful and I felt so comfortable knowing that Juni was with kind, responsive, and dog-adoring people for the weekend. Happy to know we have some trustworthy sitters for the future.”

“Ruby was great! She took care to ensure Jamba felt right at home. I especially appreciated the accommodation to do a meet and greet in advance so that Jamba felt more comfortable when I left him. I was able to relax and enjoy my weekend knowing Jamba was in good hands!”

About: I love cats and get their quirks, their independence, and how to earn their trust at their own pace. I also work from home, so your cat can get steady company and attention during the day. Happy to water your plants during drop-ins too, so everything’s thriving when you get back. Friends, family, and neighbors have relied on me for years to feed, check in on, and snuggle their cats when they’re away, and I take that trust seriously. When a friend’s cat needed an emergency vet visit while they were overseas, I was there to handle it and keep them updated every step of the way. I’m also happy to follow any specific routines or quirks your cat has so things stay consistent while you’re away!

“Tanya was so thoughtful and did an excellent job looking after our cats! It was clear in the pictures that our kitties were comfortable and happy with Tanya looking after them”

“Sierra did a great job of showing up on time and caring for my kitty. I was really comfortable with her during our meet and greet, Peepers was too so I knew it would be a good fit. I will definitely look for Sierra’s availability next time I need to travel. Thanks!”


About: I had a cat for 17 years and he was my baby. Quirky and cuddly but also wild and strange. So I get cats. I've done foster work with cats and kittens as well

“Shykala was able to come and watch our elderly cat on short notice and was a lifesaver! She provided consistent updates and photos and reached out proactively with any questions or concerns. She was very attentive and was able to put our minds at ease while we were away.”

About: With over 8 years of experience in animal care, I’ve had the pleasure of working with a wide variety of pets—including dogs, cats, rats, and even lizards! I’m confident handling pets of all ages, from playful puppies to senior companions who need a bit of extra TLC. I also have experience administering medications like pills, topical creams, and pet inhalers. I’m always happy to learn your pet’s unique routine and needs so they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I’m a student at the University of Minnesota and love spending my free time caring for animals. While my weekday schedule is limited due to classes and work, I’m fully available on Fridays and weekends and would be happy to dedicate that time to pet care. I look forward to meeting new pets and giving them the attention they deserve! Since I care for pets in their own homes, I always try to make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you're away. I stick to their usual routine—whether that means walks, meals, playtime, or meds—whatever they need to feel at ease. I know how important it is to have someone you trust in your home, so I’m always respectful of your space and do my best to leave things just as I found them (or better!). I’ll also send plenty of photo updates so you can see how your pet is doing and feel reassured while you're away. I treat every pet like they’re my own and try to make the time you're gone as stress-free as possible for both of you.

“Abigail was great with my cat Pinecone! She took the time to find him and play with him during every visit. I get nervous about leaving him for longer trips, but I felt so confident in Abigail’s ability to provide amazing care for him!”

“Ciboney was great with my cat and I could tell by the pictures she sent that my cat enjoyed her as well. Timely and responsible - would definitely recommend!”


“We chose to hire Sophia as our very first sitter from Rover, and could not be more pleased with the wonderful care she took to look after our cats! Sophia communicated promptly and shared photos and videos during every drop-in visit. Both cats were clearly very content with Sophia’s care, and we were very pleasantly surprised when our very shy cat, who typically hides when strangers visit, was already happy to be out and about on Sophia’s first visit! We absolutely would recommend Sophia to others looking for compassionate care.”


“This was our first time using Rover and Krista exceeded all of our expectations with her care of our 2 cats. She followed all of our care instructions, gave frequent and thorough updates, and made us feel confident that our cats were safe. We would absolutely work with Krista again for future trips!”

“Kristi was an excellent sitter! Very professional and communicative. She went above and beyond and I felt my cat was completely safe in her hands. Will not hesitate to book again in the future”

“Jerome was SO great! I have a shy little cat who takes a long time to come out of her shell, and out of hiding when it comes to new people. He was so patient with her, and by the end, she was sitting on his lap. I have never seen that with another person besides me! He gave nice updates each day and I was fully confident she was in the best hands. Highly recommend.”

“My second time booking with Amber, and she does not disappoint! Thank you for taking such good care of my babies and keeping me posted with detailed reports and photos. I really appreciate you!”


“Lucy did a great job house sitting and taking care of my two cats. The house was spotless when I returned from my trip and I could tell the cats had been well cared for. Lucy is great!”


“Meri was a wonderful cat sitter for our girl! Always prompt with responses, provided tons of photos, and overall gave us a sense of comfort during our time away. Definitely will book again when the time comes!”


“Darwin was incredible! He did a series of drop in visits while I was away on vacation. He was very accommodating with my schedule and provided great updates /photos. I would definitely ask him to be a sitter again! Thank you!!”

“Kira and Alejandro are wonderful with my dog Atlas! They spent lots of time outside with him today and he had a blast playing with another dog. I know he’s in really good hands every time I leave him with them! He comes back home much better adjusted than when I drop him at the noisy dog daycare place which can often overstimulate him.”

“Hopps has enjoyed his days with Kara and the family. He looks forward to playing in the yard with Oscar, walks with the kiddos and having someone to follow around all day. Kara is so great at documenting the day with pictures and reporting on his activities. I know he’s in good hands 😊”
“We needed help watching our dog during the day while moving and Sally was great! I got multiple very cute updates of him each day and it seemed like he had a great time playing and running in the backyard. She was also very flexible with drop off and pick up times.”


“Lizzy & her husband took GiGi for a fun hour long walk in the snow. They gave her a lot of attention and cuddles. They will be great caregivers for your pet.”

About: I've cared for over 15 different dog breeds since I was 10 years old, from high energy hunting dogs to cozy lap snugglers. Friends and family have trusted me with their beloved pets for years. With 8 years in animal welfare, I understand behavior and emotions, including noise fears, nervousness with new people, leash reactivity, shy/timid, resource guarding, seniors, puppies, and special needs pets. I also care for cats of all personalities independent explorers, playful toy lovers, and devoted snugglers. My goal is to give your pet a safe, loving, stress free home where they feel truly cared for while you're away. Each dog in my care receives personalized attention and love. For daycare and boarding, I limit to two dogs at a time to ensure quality care while they are in a new environment. When house sitting in your home, I can happily care for up to four dogs, keeping everyone safe, comfortable, and happy in their own home. I’m happy to provide photo updates, and our home is fully prepared for play, rest, and supervision. I’m home during the day, which allows me to provide pets with consistent attention, companionship, and enrichment. Every pet in my care enjoys a healthy balance of play, mental stimulation, walks, and quiet time to rest and recharge. Evenings are cozy and relaxed, filled with gentle supervision and snuggles, so pets feel safe, happy, and loved from morning to night. I have a fully fenced yard with secure gate locks to keep pets safe, and I’m happy to make adjustments using leads or harnesses for curious or adventurous pups. I also maintain an up-to-date list of urgent care and emergency veterinary clinics throughout the metro area for added peace of mind. Potential clients are always welcome to schedule a video home tour to see the setup and environment their pet would be in. My home allows for kenneling if needed, and I can provide large and extra large crates. I also offer separate spaces for feeding time and am located near several nearby parks for walks. For cats, I can provide a quiet, separate space if they need time to decompress. In addition to care in my home, I also offer house sitting so pets can remain comfortable in their own environment and routines. I’m located about 15 minutes from MSP Airport, which many traveling pet parents find convenient for drop-off and pick-up. Street parking is available in the area, and rideshares to the airport are typically around $20.
“Very flexible, great communication, and friendly! My pup had a great time and I felt confident that he was in good hands. Would definitely book again!”

“Nicole is absolutely amazing! My little guy is almost 15 weeks and loves to be outside. I greatly appreciated her taking him out for walks, making sure he was happy, taking him out for a multitude of potty breaks (sometimes 2 times in an hour if needed) and keeping me updated throughout the day. I highly recommend Nicole, especially if you want your dog to be well cared for!!”

“This was our first time using Roover, and Rachel made the experience smooth and stress free. Our dog had a great day with her, and Rachel sent lots of updates and pictures!”

About: Hi! We're lifelong dog lovers with plenty of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. We have two friendly dogs of our own who are part of the family, so we understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets. Our home has a fully fenced yard, giving dogs a safe and secure space to play, explore, and burn off energy. Over the years, we've cared for many dogs through pet sitting and have also fostered dogs, giving us experience with different temperaments, routines, and special needs. Whether your dog loves to play, go for walks, or simply relax and get plenty of cuddles, we'll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. We treat every dog as if they were our own and are committed to providing reliable, attentive care and regular updates so you can have peace of mind. We can't wait to meet you and your furry family member! We are a loving family of 2 adults and 2 dogs. One of us works from home full time and the other works not too far away from home so your pets will be well loved. We have a fenced yard to keep your doggies safe and 2 dogs of our own that love having "friends" over. We have done foster care for dogs and have also dog sat dogs.
About: We have a double lot that is fenced in with lots of squirrels in the tree for your dog to keep track of. There is also a small but fun little dog that loves to play and run around. When your dog gets tired, there are ample laps available for hanging out indoors. Experienced dog sitters looking to help out the dogs who don’t want to be home alone all day, or help you get out for a trip. We both have very flexible work schedules, and boarding and daycare can include walks, yard hangs, and precise food schedules. Walks are already built into a daily routine. I have a fully fenced in yard that is tall enough to keep most dogs from jumping. Depending on the dogs needs, I am happy to limit outside time to walks or supervised yard play.
About: I set the intention of pet care to being a friend to your pet and partner to you. I respect boundaries and priorities as needed. I currently work flexible hours throughout the week based off clientele. This would be an addition to my job as some days I have the entire day off or atleast half of it. Your pet always comes first. I take care of others pets like I’d expect a stranger to walk in and take care of mine. I want to leave with the intention that if I were to come back, your pet would open the door.
“First doggie sitter for our Harper and did we score big time!! Alyson is amazing. Harper came home happy and tired. It must have been a great time!! Thanks Alyson.”

“Susie did an amazing job with our pup Quinn! She was very communicative and took great care of our dog. I highly recommend Susie for your pets care!”

“McKenzie is the best thing that’s ever happened for my reactive pup. He is able to go play with other dogs and flourish in her care. She is also skilled with medically needy pups and flexible with her scheduling. The absolute best.”

“Karen and Ryan were fantastic caregivers for our senior dog, Kurt. Great communication before and during the visit. Beautiful home with a wonderful fenced yard. Super flexible with drop off and pick up times. Very friendly and professional. Kurt loved his three days with them. I highly recommend Karen and Ryan for your pet-sitting needs in Minneapolis.”
“Emilie was so good to my dog, Walter. I felt really comfortable leaving her with him for the whole day. She sent tons of pictures of him while I was at work and said he played all day -- which was perfect! I'm definitely going to be rebooking in the future. :-) Walter was pooped once we got home.”

“Great First Experience with Rover I used Rover for the first time to find a last-minute dog walker, and it was a fantastic experience. My walker was super communicative, accommodating, and made the process stress-free. I got updates, photos, and a happy pup at the end. Highly recommend and will use again!”


About: I’ve grown up around dogs and absolutely love caring for them! I currently have a Golden Retriever puppy of my own, so I’m very comfortable with puppies, potty training, walks, playtime, feeding routines, crates, and all of the energy that comes with younger dogs. I also have experience with adult dogs of different sizes and personalities. I know how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pet, and I’ll always treat your dog with the same patience, attention, and love that I give my own. I work Thursday-Sunday afternoons or evenings as a server. Here is a rough overview of my class schedule: Mondays: done by 10:30 Tuesdays: done by 12:00 and class again from 4-5:15 Wednesday: done by 10:30, class again from 6-9pm Thursday: class from 10-12:45 Friday: done by 10:30 Right now I live in an apartment, so id be able to stay at your house.

“Anna has been absolutely amazing to our sweet pup! She makes sure he gets plenty of exercise & I get lots of photos of their adventures which I love!”

About: I’ve had dogs and cared for them since I was 5 years old. I’ve had experience with both puppies and older dogs, so I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all ages. I love spending time with dogs, especially taking them for walks, playing with them, and making sure they feel well cared for! I work every other weekend (Friday–Sunday) in the evenings at a hospital and have classes Monday through Wednesday afternoons. Outside of those commitments, I have a flexible schedule and plenty of availability to let dogs out, take them for walks, and give them the attention and care they need. I’m happy to work with each pet’s routine and make sure they get plenty of exercise and companionship! I treat every pet as if they were my own and follow each owner’s instructions to maintain their pet’s normal routine. When caring for pets or stopping by for walks and visits, I make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, fresh water, meals, and lots of affection. I prioritize keeping pets safe, comfortable, and happy while also providing updates and communication so owners can have peace of mind while they’re away.
“Scott is amazing. They're so good with Freya, and she loves them so much. She looks forward to walking with them and comes back very happy. I highly recommend Scott”

About: I cared for a friends dog for 4 years, treating it like my own family member. I have also watched plenty of dogs from other friends as well as a coworkers dog. I’ve had them at my house, given walks, and gone to their house to give care. Whatever is needed, I am your resource of love and compassion for your animal. During the week I work at a nature center, however my schedule is flexible. I’m able to move my hours around so that I can be around to help your pet when need be. I can help stay with your dog in your place if need be, or they can be in my apartment where I can walk them through the neighborhoods or take them to the nearby park. I would keep them away from other dogs if needed. Whatever is needed for your loved one, I am here for you.

About: I have been taking care of animals all my life. My family ran a doggy daycare in Germany for several years, And ever since I've moved to Minnesota I've been longing to get back into the business! I have experience working with dogs of all different sizes, cats, rabbits, and even birds! No challenge is too big for me and I am very familiar working with animals that require special needs. Your animals well-being is my top priority and I will treat them as if they were my own! I am a college student with flexible, part-time work– meaning that your pets will never be alone for too long! We can discuss exact schedules in more detail as needed, and I am more than willing to be flexible and accommodating to your needs! As a professional in the industry, I am very aware of the fact that every client has their own needs and wants. I always engange with animals and client homes with the utmost respect. Please do not shy away from requesting any accomodations! No request is too small, and it is very important to me that you feel your loved ones are in good hands with me!

About: I’ve always had animals to take care of since I can remember. Both cats and dogs, and even some other small animals/exotic pets. I worked at a boarding facility with daycare, and I have fostered many dogs in the past. I’m an animal science major and have many hours of experience working with animals of all kinds. I have worked with reactive dogs and I’m always up for keeping your routine consistent with any training you might be working on as well! I will be working a summer job along with pet-sitting this summer. I will only be working max 8 hour shifts and will always have time to care for my own pets, along with yours. If you choose me to take care of them. I have an unfenced yard, but I do have a tether that I can attach a dog to. But of course, I can walk them around the yard on a leash, if that works better for the dog! A typical day with my dog looks like: Wake up and immediately feed him and replenish his water, then out for a potty break. We then spend some time relaxing while I get ready for the day. If he wants, we spend some time inside playing with toys. If I need to go to work, he resides in the common areas of the house. He will always get let out before I leave. If we spend a lot of time inside/if I have to work, I’ll get home and we usually go for a walk to get some energy out. We usually do some training and other daily activities either on the walk or after. Then in the evening he eats again, we go out for a potty break. Normally my dog doesn’t have an overabundance of energy, so we spend the rest of the night cuddling on the couch.

About: Hello! I have been consistently house/dog sitting since 2023. I have experience in watching dogs from Chihuahuas to Great Danes. I previously have watched three dogs at a time, so if you have more than one dog that is no problem. I also have experience in providing dogs with medications needed throughout the day. This includes insulin shots and capsules/pills mixed into their food. While you are away I prefer to keep the dog in its original home rather than hosting your dog. I do require a meet & greet before services. This is for my safety alongside for you and your puppies comfortability with my presence. Beyond all else it’s important to me that your dog stays comfortable. I have cared for anxious, storm scared, epileptic, loud barkers, and jumpy puppies. It’s important to me that you communicate your animals behavior or traits so I can care to the best of my ability. Without a doubt I will accommodate to your dogs feeding requirements and potty breaks. Alongside that give them lots of cuddles, kisses, playtime, and walks. As for you… I will communicate how your puppy is doing, when I arrive, if any complications arise, and send photos! Your dog is in safe hands. I currently work at a coffee shop a few times a week! My hours usually range from 4-5 hours. So it’s never long enough to leave your puppy for long periods of time. I will always honor your puppies scheduled eating times and potty breaks throughout the day! Pets are so so important! As a caregiver, I want to relieve your stress and allow you to know that your pets are in safe hands! If you would be so kind to welcome me into your home, I can take care of them there. I would prefer to keep your animals where they feel most comfortable. A fenced in backyard is preferred, but taking them out on a walk is no hassle! Provide me with all of the important details on your puppy, and I can provide service towards them! ❤️
About: We LOVE dogs and have a city sized house full of people that love giving them attention! We have 2 school age children but are home full time in the summer with a good sized fenced backyard and our own friendly pups, Oli and Lulu. We go back to our full-time jobs as educators on August 25, so our calendar reflects our school year availability (mostly weekends and some school breaks!) I (Kara) grew up always having a dog in the family, and as soon as I could, I acquired one of my own. I've learned that dogs need people, but people need dogs just as much. All this to say, we can't imagine a world without these furry little companions! With many attentive people in our household, your dog will never have needs unmet. Whether it be snuggles, toys, pets, walks, playtimes, food... be assured we can handle it! We can't wait to meet your dog! We both work in education, so our summers are very open & flexible and offer so many opportunities for dog walks, dog parks, pet cuddles, etc. Once the school year starts, our calendar reflects our weekend and school break availability! We have a fenced back yard and get on many outings with our own high energy dog. We do on long walks daily and often to the off leash dog park (if your dog is licensed in Minneapolis). We have a friendly cat that mostly keeps to herself around dogs, but she does not allow other cats in the home (so we are unable to board cats.)

About: I’ve taken care of small to medium dogs since I was about 14! I’ve helped with medication. I have changed senior dog diapers. I’ve dog sat many different breeds! I’m currently going to school full-time, so during the week I can provide pet care in the evenings! During the weekend I can provide pet care every other Saturday and every Sunday anytime! I can offer your pets a calm, safe, and patient care. I am also able to play around and engage with your pets! Whether your pet needs a quiet care giver or a pet that loves to play, I can be there!

About: Hi, I’m Lydia — dog mom, belly rub expert, and professional sniff-spot scout. I’ve spent 15 years learning what dogs actually want (hint: it’s all of the above), and a lifetime growing up with dogs and cats of every personality. Energetic or chill, young or old, I’ve got them covered. My daily and weekly routine revolves around pet care. My dog is my first thought when I wake up and the last thing I worry about before bed. I have an abundance of parks near my home that I can take your fur baby to for both exercise and play. I love a good adventure.
“Darwin came and met Rory before he took care of him . He did a wonderful job , exercising Rory for an hour even though it was so hot Rory was very happy and tired out ! I would absolutely recommend Darwin”

“Abby has been providing weekly walks for my pup when i have work in the office for the last 5 months and has been fabulous! She’s an excellent communicator and will always send pictures with the sweetest little summary of the walk every time, which brightens my day at work. And my dog absolutely loves her. She’s the best and I totally trust my dog in her care.”

About: I've been caring for neighborhood pets since I was 13, and now I’ve been all over the Minneapolis area! My family rescue dog and elderly cat are my babies, they make me the best temporary pet parent I can be for you. I lost one of my elderly cats rather suddenly this fall, so I can say I definitely understand the anxiety of being away from your pets especially those with health issues or behavior quirks. I do what I do because of her, and as a Minneapolis transplant away from my animals, I am more than happy to spend time with yours! I work part-time, though my hours fall in the 9-5 window. However, there is flexibility for me to work remotely for part or sometimes full days with advance notice, depending on the project. I can usually accommodate whatever exercise your pet needs! I am also a dancer, so if your dog has acute health issues or requires constant supervision, we may not be the best fit, as training does require me to be out of the house in the evening. No 4-hour rehearsals right now, but I do take class most days of the week. I'll do my best to stick to a comfortable, consistent routine for your pet and make sure they get all the proper attention and love they need while you are gone. I'm happy to accommodate any medication or feeding requirements.

About: My wife and I have been fostering dogs for years. We also have a older dog who has some complex needs, so we're very experienced with giving medication on a schedule. I work from home 1 day a week and my wife works from home full-time, so we can give your pup plenty of attention and affection. We have a fully fenced backyard and two dogs (plus a cat who thinks he's a dog) to keep your furry friend company and entertained.
“Kyle did a great job caring for our pup while we were out of town and was extremely prompt with all of our correspondence; including in our request to watch our pup, which really put us at ease! I definitely recommend him! :)”

“Brenda & family were amazing with Aspen. Aspen felt right at home and happy. I received regular updates and knew she was well taken care of. Highly recommended.”
“Robert was wonderful! Rosie needs meds and Robert did a great job with that. Rosie appeared so comfortable and at home with Robert. She truly was very happy. Thank you Robert! We will see you again!”

“Kourage had a wonderful time with Lynnea. They were so sweet & kind to him and went well above & beyond to love on him like he were their own while during the stay. We will ABSOLUTELY be booking with Lynnea again.”

“Carolina took very good care of our dog, and sent great pictures of him enjoying himself, He also moped around for half a day when he got home, a sure sign he had a good time!”

“Our dog Leena has a great time and was exhausted when we picked her up. Alisha and Cameron and their family sent a lot of updates and clearly spent a lot of time the pups. Would definitely recommend and plan to send our dog to visit them again in the future!”
