“We could not have asked for a better first experience finding care for our dog . Rebekah and her husband were so personable and seemed genuinely excited and happy to host our Nelly. Rebekah sent updates throughout the stay along with pictures . We will definitely hire her again ! Thank you for taking such good care of our furry family member!”
“Candace & Jeremy were absolutely wonderful! Out dog, mikko, is a little anxious and higher energy being a Aussie but he did great and seemed to loved his time with them. We will absolutely be repeat clients of theirs and recommend them 10/10! Thank you both!”
“Taylore did an incredible job keeping me up to date with how my dog was doing by sending multiple pictures every day. Her property has plenty of space for dogs to run around and play. 10/10 would recommend.”
“Jacky our Wheaton spend one night with Hannah, and was instantly comfortable with her when we dropped him off, which is unusual for him as he is hesitant with strangers. She sent numerous updates and photos which showed us he was having a good time. We were very happy with the whole experience and would recommend Hannah.”
“This was my first time using Rover and it was a great experience. Jaymie made drop-off and pick-up easy and smooth, and I really appreciated the regular updates and photos while I was away. It gave me peace of mind knowing my dog was being well cared for. I would definitely book with Jaymie again!”
“Alexandra did a wonderful job. Very responsive to text messages and provided daily updates. Her residence has plenty of space for dogs to run and have fun. Definitely going to book with her next time we need a sitter. I felt very comfortable that our dog was in good hands.”
“I was very impressed Marie and Mark. When we first went to meet them, Marie took Luna off her leash so she could explore the house. Luna jumped up on the couch to be next to them. They did not care and just petted her. The pics the sent was Luna going on walks and curled up next to them. I felt very comfortable Luna was just fine. Will use, for sure, again.”
“Awesome experience from start to finish. Couldn’t be happier. Tammy and John took such good care of our dog. We received multiple daily updates. We were able to enjoy our vacation knowing she was getting lots of love and attention.”
“I had never left my fur baby for a week before and was a little worried about how she would do. I needn't have worried at all. Jennifer sent pictures of Kenzie having a wonderful time running and playing. I will for sure be booking with her again. Thank you Jennifer and family for making Kenzie fell comfortable and at home with you. ♥️”
About: Hi, I'm Leah! I provide dog sitting exclusively in my home on five peaceful acres in rural Minnesota. Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up on a farm and have spent my life caring for animals of all kinds. I've owned multiple dogs over the years, including large and small breeds, and understand that every dog has unique needs, routines, and personalities. As a registered nurse, I am dependable, attentive, and comfortable caring for dogs who require extra support. I can administer oral medications and injections, follow detailed care plans, and provide attentive care for senior dogs or pets with special medical needs. My property offers a quiet, low-stress environment with plenty of space to explore, relax, and enjoy the outdoors under supervision. I have a tripod Pyrenees named Lola and she is very sociable! Whether your dog loves activity and adventure or prefers a slower pace and extra cuddles, my goal is to provide a safe, caring home away from home while you're away. I look forward to meeting you and your pup! I'm home all day, every day! I work a couple of night shifts during the week but my own dog barely notices I'm gone because she's sleeping. During the day the longest I'm usually away is a couple of hours for errands or the gym. If your dog has specific supervision needs, feel free to reach out and we can discuss whether my schedule is a good fit. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my priority. I follow instructions carefully and make sure routines are done exactly the way you prefer, including feeding schedules, leash safety, and any medications or special care needs. I’m a nurse by background, so I’m very observant, calm in unexpected situations, and comfortable handling responsibility with attention to detail. I take trust seriously and understand I’m being welcomed into your pet’s space.
“Anna was wonderful ...Maile looked better than when we left him. He was a bit tired probably from having dog friends to play with and a yard. All positive....we will be boarding with Anna again when she is available.”
“Brandi and her family were WONDERFUL!!! They treated my dog Hank like family, with lots of love and plenty of neighborhood walks. They comforted him during a thunderstorm, and he even got to join them on the bed for a snuggle. I'd book Brandi again in a second, in fact I already have! 🙂 She gets 10 stars in my book, and in Hank's!!!”
“The care and understanding of our dog and helping her acclimate to their home was outstanding in every way. Was given time to be a part of the family and enjoy being part of their 'pack'. The messages and images helped us know about how she was doing during her stay. She would go back in an instant.”
“My dog, Daisy had THE BEST TIME! When we picked her up she was happy but tired out like a kid who went to summer camp and had soo much fun :-) Sofia was amazing with sending pictures and videos. Their facility is a nice set up. WE DEFINITELY will be back. It was SO nice to be away and not worry about Daisy! Thank you!!!!!!!!”
“Alisha and Cameron took such great care of our dog Bear! He was so happy at their house. They provided lots of updates and pictures. I know he got lots of love. They have been our favorite Rover family to date!”
“Our dog had a wonderful stay with Patti and Patrick. He was dealing with some health issues prior to his stay with them, and they were supportive with giving him his medication. Patti sent us fun text messages and photos everyday of our happy boy. He was well taken care of and loved in their care.”
“Brenda and Alvin were the perfect fit our dog. We feel lucky to have found them on Rover. They are former dog owners and clearly enjoy them. The daily photo’s they sent and text updates left us at ease, able to enjoy our vacation without worry. We’ll definitely reach out again.”

“Rebekah was really great with my boys! They loved her and she made sure to send me a message how they were during at check in as well as sent pictures each visit. She spent quality time with them and treated them like her own :)”
About: I have been walking dogs for 3 years. The dog I currently walk is a Golden Retriever with a lot of energy! I have also walked other large dogs as well as small dogs. I currently walk a dog every morning Monday through Friday, and 2 small dogs as needed. We enjoy going for walks and to the dog park if requested. We have gone on car rides to different parks for walks as well as walking in the neighborhood. I love the time I get to spend with the dogs. Dog walking is what I do. Every day Monday through Friday I walk a Golden Retriever. After that I am open to taking on more walking or drop in visits. When going to clients homes I am always careful to be sure to lock up the home after our walk. I check to be sure that there is adequate water. I am respectful of others private space and leave things as I find them. I give treats if requested. On hot days we can keep walks shorter if requested. I will also brush your dog if you request this.
“Hannah was everything we needed!! We hired her to come in June but last minute asked if she was available and she was. We weren’t able to meet before but I sent her videos on what to do and it went so perfectly! Can’t wait to have her back in June!”
“Sarah was great. She was timely and sent pictures of her drop in with my dog. She was responsive and able to help out on a short notice. Would definitely recommend Sarah to help out with your pet.”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my six years of dedicated, hands-on experience caring for animals around the clock. I grew up with two dogs and a cat, caring for them through all stages of life—including senior care and end-of-life comfort. I also have experience working with rescues my family adopted, which taught me patience and adaptability with animals of different backgrounds and temperaments. I’m confident working with puppies, senior pets, and those needing special attention, and I truly love and treat every animal as if they were my own. I currently have an open schedule, which allows me to be very flexible and fully dedicate time to pet care. I’m able to plan my days around the needs of the pets I’m caring for, making sure I’m available for feeding times, walks, play, and any special routines or requests. When caring for pets, I prioritize their safety, comfort, and routine. I follow all owner instructions for feeding, medication, and exercise, ensuring fresh water and a clean environment. Whether supervising play, going for walks, or offering companionship, I aim to reduce stress and make pets feel secure and well cared for in any setting.

About: I have raised several dogs from the time they were puppies. I have done obedience training with all of them. I truly enjoy the loyal companionship of a dog. I am currently on SSDI, so I am retired. I do have a karaoke DJ business, but that usually only takes me away one or two nights a month. I currently have a French bulldog who is fixed and he is very friendly with other dogs. I also have two cats, but I have the ability to separate them from the rest of the house.
About: After graduating high school, I worked at a veterinary hospital for about three years, gaining hands-on experience with animal care. Recently, I’ve begun pet sitting more regularly while also working part-time as a waitress. I’ve been around dogs, cats, and even chickens since I was young. I’ve always had a strong love for animals and enjoy being around them. I’ve had the opportunity to pet sit for many families and many types of pets. I truly enjoy building trust and relationships with both pets and their owners.

“Hannah was great with our puppy! Sent photos shortly after I left l, which put my mind at ease since this was the first time bringing him there. He seemed to love her and his time there! Will definitely use her again! She was also flexible with my pickup time as it shifted due to work. Thank you Hannah!”
“Rebekah was amazing watching our pup and we loved all the pictures she took. Her pup was so sweet and played so well with ours. Rebekah was so easy to communicate and coordinate with!”
“What a wonderful couple. They “get” dogs. Our one has separation anxiety and the other is borderline. They seemed so chill here and happy. We even got a happy photo of them. We’ll definitely be back. This is so much better than them being cooped up in a kennel at a boarder. Thank you, see you next time.”

About: Since I was 6 years old my family had dogs and cats as pets. All the dogs we had we got as puppies so I handled the potty training, taught tricks and the main obedience training like sit and stay. I've watched family and friends dogs which also included days/nights at a time like when they were out of town working. I have watched and been with tiny dogs to giant dogs. I'm a stay at home mom at the moment so I have plenty of time to care for your pet pretty much at anytime day or night. I have a fenced yard so easy to let in and out as needed, big area take out or let out to play. My house is pretty open with area for them to roam or find good spot to just relax. I have never crated any of my animals but if needed or wanted obviously I could do that. If you have a special diet for your dog I would follow that for you also. My kids and I also love to go on walks and would love your dog to join. I do have three very young kids so your dog must get along with children. My kids love animals, they were very sad after losing our last dog so they'd be very excited to play with others. I am home daily with my kids, I only leave when I need to go to the store or take kids to an activity. So they won't be left alone for long if at all while in my care. I have a fenced in yard for a safe place to run and play while outside. My house is decent size so plenty of area and all open to them so they feel at home. You can bring whatever you think your animal needs to be comfortable.

I did everything from treatments, trials, surgery (given if it was best for her), home grown & cooked meals, and every last dollar to my name spent to save her. I ensured she had everything from ramps, to special harnesses, and even a wagon as she was a tripod in her late time. I will do anything for animals as I believe they are gods love sent to us in pet form! They truly are a blessing. I am currently taking the summer off of work as I transition my career from working, to owning my own business. I am currently wide open availability! I love to spoil & love on all animals!

About: I’ve spent years caring for my own dogs and raising animals, which has taught me patience, responsibility, and an understanding of different personalities and needs. I treat every pet like family, making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. What sets me apart is the genuine bond I build with animals and my dedication to their happiness, whether that means playtime, walks, or simply giving them the attention they deserve. Caring for pets is already a part of my daily routine. Between feeding, walking, playtime, and keeping up with my own dogs, I’m used to giving animals structure and attention every single day. Whether it’s early morning walks or evening walks, pets are always the center of my schedule. In my home, I make sure pets have a safe, comfortable space where they feel welcomed as part of the family. I stick to regular feeding schedules, provide plenty of playtime and walks, and give lots of love and attention. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to follow their routines as closely as possible, whether mealtime, walks, or bedtime, so pets feel secure and stress-free. My goal is to always create consistency, comfort, and trust.

About: When I was little I used to tell people I lived in a Zoo and though it often felt that way with 4 dogs, 2 cats, a bird and rabbits it was not a reality (maybe one day ;) .) I have been caring for animals since I could hold a leash from walking and feeding dogs to trimming cat nails. In the past 5 years I have raised and trained my own high energy Vizsla as well as cared for a few litters of Bernese Mountain Dogs. I deeply believe the relationship a human has with their furry friend is unique and irreplaceable and my goal as a dog caretaker is to protect those relationships. Not only do I keep your furry babies happy and healthy, but I also strive to create peace of mind for you. I just moved to Minnesota and am diving into the vibrance of life here. With that, I am very flexible on timing. Morning-Day-Night and Weekends are all great for me. I completely understand that each dog owner has preferences and ways they want their babies to be cared for. With that, as I enter someone else's space I do so with a mindset of respect for the guidelines and rules they have laid out. I will care for you dog to the best of my abilities while keeping your wishes at the forefront.
About: I’ve loved animals my whole life. Since I got my first dog at 8 years old I’ve always had them around.

I currently have a dog, cat and horse treat business selling health pet treats at the local farmers markets with my 14 year old daughter. We live on 2 quiet acres outside of a small town. Nice walks are a must in the mornings and evenings on leash of course.

I also have 8 chickens & 2 ducks that are NOT free range. So no worries to them or your pets! If your pet is not social no worries! I have a ton of experience keeping pets seperate with 0 crossing/contact for everyone’s safety. I have 3 levels of my home that can be 3 areas to spoil all the fur babies! I do not have a fenced in yard however, I am on 5 acres & do have 2 very long zip line style cables that connect across 3 large trees! Great for zoomies & roaming! I also have a very large outdoor dog kennel enclosed & shade provided. I also have a dog park not far from my house, and am willing to bring your dog there given the service is requested! I am not a certified trainer however, I have trained my own dogs, family & friends dogs, and have been to multiple classes to learn! I also helped a friend train their aggressive large breed dog with specialized muzzle & obedience training. I specialize mainly in Sit, stay, roll over, and all the fun tricks! I can even help with potty training given the service needed! I have developed some amazing friendships, family if you will, along the way! I love your fur baby as if they are my own! Lastly, I would love to tell you a short story of how big my love is for animals. My soul dog Bella was diagnosed with OSA in 2024. I did everything from treatments, trials, surgery (given if it was best for her), home grown & cooked meals, and every last dollar to my name spent to save her. I ensured she had everything from ramps, to special harnesses, and even a wagon as she was a tripod in her late time. I will do anything for animals as I believe they are gods love sent to us in pet form! They truly are a blessing. I am currently taking the summer off of work as I transition my career from working, to owning my own business. I am currently wide open availability! I love to spoil & love on all animals! All animals are care for with safety & structure. From crate (if needed), going outside routines, food schedules, play time, & more! As stated before I have 2 rescue dogs who are both very young! Izzy is 3 and Prim is 2. Both High energy, and I am able to get them both adjusted safely indoor and outdoor!
About: Growing up on a farm, I developed a deep passion for animal care that led me to participate in 4-H, county fairs, and FFA during high school. After graduation, I spent over three years working at a veterinary clinic’s boarding facility, where I gained hands-on experience in administering medications, behavior training, and providing personalized care. I was promoted to supervisor and emergency care assistant, further strengthening my leadership and critical care skills. I believe every pet deserves individualized attention, whether it’s ensuring playtime, administering medication, or offering extra TLC. My goal is to create a safe, nurturing environment where pets feel happy and owners can trust their pets are in expert hands. Since joining Rover in August 2022, I’ve had the privilege of caring for many pets and building lasting relationships with their owners. With a background in veterinary care, boarding, and behavioral training, I bring a wealth of experience to ensure your pets receive the highest standard of care. I offer a range of services, including feeding, walks, playtime, medication administration, and basic behavioral training (upon request). I’m available for daytime care, drop-ins, and occasional overnight stays on weekdays and select weekends. My flexible schedule allows me to tailor my services to meet your pet’s unique needs. Having worked in the emergency department of a reputable veterinary clinic, I’ve developed an unwavering commitment to animal welfare, approaching each pet’s care with vigilance and attention to detail.
About: I’ve been pet sitting for about five years and worked in a veterinary hospital for three years. I have cared for cats, dogs, and even farm animals. With my veterinary experience, I understand animal behavior and basic medical needs, allowing me to provide loving, reliable, and attentive care while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I work part-time as a waitress, which allows me to maintain a flexible schedule and provide attentive, consistent care for pets. When I have advance notice, I can adjust my work schedule to accommodate pet sitting needs. For overnight stays, I prioritize spending most of my time in the pet’s home to ensure they feel comfortable, cared for. I care for pets in their own home to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I like to follow routines, maintain a clean and secure environment, and provide plenty of attention and supervision. With my past experience as a veterinary technician assistant, I’m attentive to behavior changes and health needs to ensure safe, reliable care.
About: I lived with 2 cats for a majority of my life. I have experience watching animals for family and friends, looking to meet new best friends. I am currently working full time and going to school part time to earn my master’s degree. Looking for a fun side job to keep life interesting. I am open to having the animals out in the open or crated when not around. Would love to have a yard to play with animals, but not opposed to going to local parks.
About: I am a single mom, who enjoys animals just about as much as I love children. My son loves taking dogs for walks and helping me care for them. It teaches him about responsibility, integrity, and so much more.. Plus we get to play with many different animals and who doesn't love that! I enjoy all breeds of dog whether they are large or small as long as they're friendly with children. I am very professional, and respectful of people, their homes and their pets and have never gotten a bad review from any customer that I've ever had. I always go the extra mile to make the customer and the pet feel as comfortable as possible because it's hard to leave a pet, and also hard for a pet when the owner leaves.
About: ive had dogs my whole life! I currently have a rottweiler pitbull that is 5yso. I used to walk 3 pitbulls by myself all the time! Im currently working full time but looking for ways to make extra money on my days off, im a animal and walk lover so i thought this would be a perfect fit! I have a fenced in yard that my dog personally loves to sun bathe in! Ive had lots of experience handling. different dogs, and making them feel comfortable in spaces.
About: I have taken care of pets ever since I was 15. My family and friends rely on me to feed, water, and walk there pets. I have my Vet assistant certificate. I have 3+ year of experience in animal care. Let me know if your pet has special need requirementsthat I need to know about. I have delt with that type of stuff before. I am available on the weekends and week days, all the time. I am very flexible when it comes to taking care of your pets. I do have some stuff to do otherwise your pet gets my full attention and love. I cannot provide services in my home as my dogs are not friendly with other dogs. I do provide services in other people's homes if they would like, I will take dogs on car rides if nice out, will treat the dog like it is my own dog.
About: Quality Care with reliability, punctuality, safety and most importantly fun and snuggles! I live in a dog friendly house and I'm a major dog person myself. I love going on walks with dogs (of all sizes). I'm great with feeding schedules and potty schedules. I've worked with dogs of all sizes and breeds for four years now. Need me to house sit? You Betcha! Poop Scoop? No problem. Let me know what your canine needs are and I'll most likely make those accommodations! I'm open to working with dogs with of all abilities as long as I'm made aware of what their needs are. My home is big with a spacious yard but it is not fenced..yet. I live in town but I have a good running route that I love taking my 4 legged friends! I hope to help you give your dog the best life possible. :)

She sent numerous updates and photos which showed us he was having a good time. We were very happy with the whole experience and would recommend Hannah.”
“This was my first time using Rover and it was a great experience. Jaymie made drop-off and pick-up easy and smooth, and I really appreciated the regular updates and photos while I was away. It gave me peace of mind knowing my dog was being well cared for. I would definitely book with Jaymie again!”
“Alexandra did a wonderful job. Very responsive to text messages and provided daily updates. Her residence has plenty of space for dogs to run and have fun. Definitely going to book with her next time we need a sitter. I felt very comfortable that our dog was in good hands.”
“I was very impressed Marie and Mark. When we first went to meet them, Marie took Luna off her leash so she could explore the house. Luna jumped up on the couch to be next to them. They did not care and just petted her. The pics the sent was Luna going on walks and curled up next to them. I felt very comfortable Luna was just fine. Will use, for sure, again.”
“Awesome experience from start to finish. Couldn’t be happier. Tammy and John took such good care of our dog. We received multiple daily updates. We were able to enjoy our vacation knowing she was getting lots of love and attention.”
“I had never left my fur baby for a week before and was a little worried about how she would do. I needn't have worried at all. Jennifer sent pictures of Kenzie having a wonderful time running and playing. I will for sure be booking with her again. Thank you Jennifer and family for making Kenzie fell comfortable and at home with you. ♥️”
About: Hi, I'm Leah! I provide dog sitting exclusively in my home on five peaceful acres in rural Minnesota. Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up on a farm and have spent my life caring for animals of all kinds. I've owned multiple dogs over the years, including large and small breeds, and understand that every dog has unique needs, routines, and personalities. As a registered nurse, I am dependable, attentive, and comfortable caring for dogs who require extra support. I can administer oral medications and injections, follow detailed care plans, and provide attentive care for senior dogs or pets with special medical needs. My property offers a quiet, low-stress environment with plenty of space to explore, relax, and enjoy the outdoors under supervision. I have a tripod Pyrenees named Lola and she is very sociable! Whether your dog loves activity and adventure or prefers a slower pace and extra cuddles, my goal is to provide a safe, caring home away from home while you're away. I look forward to meeting you and your pup! I'm home all day, every day! I work a couple of night shifts during the week but my own dog barely notices I'm gone because she's sleeping. During the day the longest I'm usually away is a couple of hours for errands or the gym. If your dog has specific supervision needs, feel free to reach out and we can discuss whether my schedule is a good fit. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my priority. I follow instructions carefully and make sure routines are done exactly the way you prefer, including feeding schedules, leash safety, and any medications or special care needs. I’m a nurse by background, so I’m very observant, calm in unexpected situations, and comfortable handling responsibility with attention to detail. I take trust seriously and understand I’m being welcomed into your pet’s space.
“Brandi and her family were WONDERFUL!!! They treated my dog Hank like family, with lots of love and plenty of neighborhood walks. They comforted him during a thunderstorm, and he even got to join them on the bed for a snuggle. I'd book Brandi again in a second, in fact I already have! 🙂 She gets 10 stars in my book, and in Hank's!!!”
“The care and understanding of our dog and helping her acclimate to their home was outstanding in every way. Was given time to be a part of the family and enjoy being part of their 'pack'. The messages and images helped us know about how she was doing during her stay. She would go back in an instant.”
“My dog, Daisy had THE BEST TIME! When we picked her up she was happy but tired out like a kid who went to summer camp and had soo much fun :-) Sofia was amazing with sending pictures and videos. Their facility is a nice set up. WE DEFINITELY will be back. It was SO nice to be away and not worry about Daisy! Thank you!!!!!!!!”
“Alisha and Cameron took such great care of our dog Bear! He was so happy at their house. They provided lots of updates and pictures. I know he got lots of love. They have been our favorite Rover family to date!”
“Our dog had a wonderful stay with Patti and Patrick. He was dealing with some health issues prior to his stay with them, and they were supportive with giving him his medication. Patti sent us fun text messages and photos everyday of our happy boy. He was well taken care of and loved in their care.”
“Brenda and Alvin were the perfect fit our dog. We feel lucky to have found them on Rover. They are former dog owners and clearly enjoy them. The daily photo’s they sent and text updates left us at ease, able to enjoy our vacation without worry. We’ll definitely reach out again.”
“Our pup had a great time, Tom kept in touch and was great about watching him closely for a some injuries my pup was dealing with. Communication was great. Would book with Tom again and again.”
