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. My days are entirely open, except for the occasional one or two days a week where I am called in from one of my other jobs. I am also a full-time college student during the fall and winter time, but my summers are almost entirely clear. 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! :)

“Baylea has been so good with my cat, Nubi! It's been his first time with someone looking after him and she did great with him! She did so well following my instructions to feed him, giving him space and talking to him! She said he let her pet him which he doesn't allow many people to do. I was very happy to hear things went well. I will definitely be using her again!”
“Lela exceeded expectations. Provided excellent communication including daily pictures. It was apparent from the pics that our cat, Rico was happy to spend several days with Lela. We returned to a spotless home.”
“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 been around animals for as long as I can remember. I have the biggest soft spot for them, and I have two dogs of my own. I have had my own dog since I was about 19, but have had outdoor farm dogs for as long as I can remember. I have been around dogs, cats, guinea pigs, and other small animals for as long as I can remember. I am patient, detail orientated and I truly just love spending time with animals. Big or small, I love them all! I do work during the day, but I have the ability to pop out if/when I need to. I am free evenings and weekends. My schedule can be flexible if needed.

I also have a dog park in front of my apartment!
About: While most of my professional experience has been with dogs, I’ve lived with and cared for multiple cats over the years. I understand that every cat has their own unique personality — whether they’re playful and social or more independent and shy — and I always take the time to make them feel comfortable and safe. I’m experienced in providing daily care such as feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, playtime, and giving plenty of attention at your cat’s pace. My background working in a dog boarding and daycare facility has also helped me develop strong animal-handling skills, patience, and the ability to read pet behavior and body language. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I’ll care for your cat like they’re my own while keeping you updated so you can feel confident they’re happy and well cared for while you’re away.

“Heidi was kind and considerate, took great care of my dog. Unfortunately there were a lot more dogs in her home then I was aware of, I should have read more closely of her profile. Apparently my young puppy did not get along well with one of her older dogs, so we will not be using her again.”
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.
“She did a wonderful job with my puppy. My baby is high energy and she walked her even though it was super windy and cold. She watched her nearly all day and made sure to send pictures and updates. I highly recommend using Beth as a puppy sitter”

About: Hello, my name is Mariah. I have had a dog in my life since I was five years old and couldn't imagine life without one! I enjoy playing with them, walks, cuddles, and just spending the majority of my time with them. I'm always very excited to meet other dogs and am more than happy to give them the care and love that my own dogs receive. My first dog my family had when I was young had puppies that we had to care for until they were sold so I have experience with puppies and large breed of dogs. We also had our first dog until she was 14 years old so I have experience caring for senior dogs as well. I am very passionate about caring for dogs. I work full time but I am flexible and willing to find a schedule or times that work! I am usually available in the evening/night. For the pets in my home, they have a very set schedule of two meals and a day and an evening walk. They receive their monthly medication and are always provided with water. They have plenty of time outside to potty and play fetch all evening until bedtime.

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.

About: I’ve cared for a variety of pets over the years, including dogs of all ages. I have hands-on experience with puppies who need structure and patience, as well as senior dogs who require extra attention, medication, and a gentle touch. Whether it’s going for long walks, playtime, or just providing comfort and companionship, I genuinely love caring for animals and making sure they feel safe and happy. What sets me apart is my attention to detail and calm, caring nature. I treat every pet like they’re my own, taking time to learn their personality. I’m reliable, communicative, and always go the extra mile to make sure both pets and their owners feel comfortable. I fit pet care into my routine during my free time, usually in the mornings and evenings during the week, and more flexible on weekends. I ensure a safe, clean, and pet-friendly environment. I build trust through gentle handling, consistent routines, and lots of affection. I follow specific care instructions and prioritize the pet’s comfort and well-being.
About: Animals have been a huge part of my life since I was young — I grew up in a family full of dogs and developed a love for caring for animals early on. Over the past four years, I’ve gained hands-on experience dog sitting pets of all sizes and personalities, from energetic puppies to senior dogs, as well as cats and even chickens! For the past year, I’ve also worked at a dog boarding and daycare facility, where I’ve learned how to safely handle dogs with a wide range of temperaments, energy levels, and needs. This experience has made me confident in reading animal behavior, creating a calm environment, and making sure every pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable while in my care. I treat every pet like family and understand how important it is to know your furry friend is in caring, reliable hands. Whether your pet loves playtime, cuddles, walks, or just a calm companion, I’m happy to provide personalized care that fits their needs! Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I currently work part-time in the evenings, which gives me daytime availability to care for pets, provide walks, drop-in visits, and spend quality time with them throughout the week. I’m hoping to dedicate most weekdays to pet care and make sure each pet gets plenty of attention, patience, and reliable care while their owners are away. At this time, I’m generally unavailable on weekends due to family obligations, but during the week I’m flexible and committed to providing dependable, loving care for your pets. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always make it my priority to keep their routine as comfortable and stress-free as possible. During drop-in visits, I can provide feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, litter box cleaning, playtime, attention, and plenty of love and companionship. For dog walks, I make sure each dog gets safe, attentive exercise based on their energy level and needs. I understand how important pets are to their families, so I treat every animal with patience, kindness, and the same level of care I would want for my own pets. I also believe communication is important, so I’m happy to provide updates and photos while you’re away so you can feel confident your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for.

About: I have grown up with two lovely pups in my house. I helped taking care of them and even helped in training our hunting dog! I love being around animals and especially dogs. I am currently a college student I go to school at the university of Minnesota state Mankato. I am majoring in sports management with a minor in marketing. Moving back to college means I’m away from my dog at home. I am not ready to commit to getting a dog of my own due to living in an apartment, but I wanted the opportunity to be around dogs. So, that’s when I found rover and thought it would be perfect for someone like me! I give a lot of attention to the dogs and of course love to take them on long walks as I am quite active myself.
