“Frank and Clarissa were great! They’re responsive and attentive and provided excellent updates. We were glad to have them watch our dog without any concern or incident while away.”


“Eddie was treated like a family member at DeeDee’s house. She kept us informed with notes, photos & videos daily. This was our dog’s second stay with Dee Dee. Highly recommend her!”

“Ramanda and her daughters were wonderful and took great care of my 4mo old puppy! They walked him, played with him and made him feel at home just like he was their dog. We will definitely ask them for care in the future!”

“William took care of our Mini Schnauzer for 11 days while we were at a national conference. He sent daily photos and words about our dog. This was a daily refresher for us knowing our dog was in good hands. Communicating with William was superb!”

“Brittany was awesome watching our dog, Scooter. Scooter is an old dog- doesn't see or hear well and she was very patient with him. She sent us daily pictures and updates on how he was doing. Will definitely reach out again!”

“Amazing Care for Our High-Energy Doodle Puppy! We couldn't have been happier with the care Jeremiah provided for our energetic doodle puppy during his three-day stay. Finding someone who can handle a young, high-energy dog is crucial, and Jeremiah exceeded all our expectations. Their home is incredibly clean and nice, and the fenced backyard was perfect for our puppy to burn off steam safely. It was a huge bonus that they have their own sweet doodle—our guy had an absolute blast making a new friend and getting constant companionship! Communication was prompt and reassuring. We received updates and very cute pictures via text throughout the stay, which made us feel completely at ease. They took him on multiple walks and ensured he received excellent care and attention the entire time. Overall, our puppy truly enjoyed his stay, and we are totally satisfied. We will absolutely be repeat customers and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a loving, responsible, and fun home for their dog!”

“Kay and family was definitely a godsend in my last minute attempt to find care for my dog, Henry. Daily updates with pictures and videos and great communication helped me relax knowing he was in good hands. My dog has special needs in the center where he has attachment issues and there was always somebody home at Kay‘s house to be with Henry and her family is just as calming and sweet as what you would picture from her description and photos. Not only a great dog sitter but an amazing human being in life! Can’t thank you all enough!”
“Thank you Kj ! This was coco's 3rd stay with Kj. It is so great to be able to drop coco off & have absolutely no doubt that she will be happy, safe & well taken care of. She has a blast & comes home happily tuckered out.”

“Great boarding experience! We use Yuliya for daycare and very happy. Toby needed boarding for a week and he loved being there. Lots of pictures and he loved playing in the yard and hanging out with his friends”

“What a blessing Trace is! Her place couldn't be better suited for dog care. A huge fenced in yard front pirch & dog run. She also has 4 Basset hounds!! Lily took immediate attention to Teddy. Such a wonderful time she had.She is so kind, knowledgeable and detailed oriented. My 3 mo Great Pyrenees...Lily Lu felt right @ home. Didn't even look back at me to say goodbye! I have her on speed dial and looking forward to many outings to her home for Lily Lu! She's the best!! So is her grandson, Evan!”

“I’m very glad I found Jana for our dog.Jana and her kids took wonderful care of our dog and gave him lots of love and attention, which he loves. She sent regular photos and accommodated our late night flight. They have a great house and yard for pups to play.”

“Amy was great! This was my first time having someone watch my dog besides my parents so I was very nervous about leaving my pup with someone new. I received pictures daily and when I arrived to pick her up she was so happy and wanted to show me all the toys she's been playing with all week. She can't wait to stay with Amy and Danielle again!”

“Manami was fantastic and really came through! I got very sick on my trip and was not able to fly home, but she was able to watch my cat until I was well enough to fly home. I appreciated her flexibility and tons of pictures!”

“Mochi has the best time at Alicia and Simon's! They send us daily pictures/videos/ and updates. When Mochi comes home he is always exhausted and sleeps for 2 days!!!”

“Great family and great experience. We had a last minute need and Carine and Eric were very accommodating, sent lots of updates, and we can tell our dog was safe and well taken care of.”

“Promise is very friendly and caring for dogs. We had a meet and greet before the actual boarding. She really took time to make sure that Aka feels not nervious at her place. She also sends pictures of Aka every day! She is amazing! I truly appreciate her!! At the end of the 5 day boarding period, Aka was cuddling with her dogs Diego and Gizmo! It was so cute to watch them becoming good friends!! Will defintely come back and book again!!”

“Dayjah was amazing with Luna! She messaged is daily with pics and updates. She was responsive, calm, and supportive with our pup's needs. Will definitely work with her again!”

“Britt was great with my 3 cats! She sent fun updates, took great care of them, and went above and beyond by cleaning up an “accident” one of them had while I was away. I felt good having them in her care.”

About: Savannah here! I have three dogs and an orange kitty. I’ve been around animals my entire life and absolutely love getting to know each pet’s unique personality. I have experience caring for senior dogs and pets that may need a little extra patience, attention, and love.

Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers a slower pace, I’m happy to provide care that fits their needs! My services include: •30 minute dog walks include a fun stroll around your neighborhood to help your pup get fresh air, exercise, and a little adventure during the day. •30 minute drop-ins include potty breaks, feeding, playtime, and of course plenty of love to make sure your pet is comfortable while you're gone. You can book up to three drop-ins per day! Every pet is different, so I’m always happy to accommodate extra needs or customize visits to fit your pet’s routine. My availability is flexible, feel free to reach out with your preferred dates and times! • I always offer a (free) 10-minute meet-and-greet before any drop-in or walking service. This gives us a chance to meet, helps your pet get familiar with me, and lets us go over their routine and any other needs. Meet-and-greets are not required to book with me, they are simply available if you’d like a little extra comfort and peace of mind before our first visit!

“Our second time booking with Emma and all went perfectly once again! Our cat Billie quickly approved & warmed up to her. We appreciated the care she put into the check ins and photos/updates while we were away. Thank you again Emma!”

“Paige was a wonderful sitter! She was so kind and communicative, leaving us great updates and pictures from her visits. We didn’t worry about our boys at all! Would definitely recommend Paige😺”

“From the minute I met Sydney I knew she was going to be a trust worthy gal to take care of my granny cat. Sydney has been so kind,punctual , sent pictures, videos and updates every visit, even spend some extra off the clock time to pet my cat finish her nap on Sydney’s lap. I would recommend Sydney to anyone looking for a a sitter for their pet .”


About: I have years of experience caring for dogs and cats for family and friends, and I’m now excited to expand my services to Rover, offering dependable, stress-free visits you can trust, keeping your cat comfortable, happy, and well cared for while you’re away.
About: I have been dog and cat sitting for over 10yrs. I usually stay at the owners house. Experienced with dogs with medical issues, and high anxiety. I have given medications and have done some training. I have done just overnight stays, but have also done 3month long stays. I am also a Hairstylist and Skin care specialist. I rent a chair at a salon and make my own schedule, so my hours are flexable. I enjoy spending time with pets, but just don't live in a place were I can have one. I am not married and have no children, so I am completely available and focused on your pet. I usually like to meet you and your pet/pets about 1week before the scheduled appointment, so I can get to know you, your pet and your pets routine, feeding times, walking, medications if needed, etc. This also helps the dog recognize me when I show up, when you aren't there.
About: I have always loved animals, whether it be a mouse or a horse. I also love to help people out, especially with dogs and cats. I’ve babysat one dog long-term (about 6 months), and I have been babysitting the same dog for about 2 years, since he was a 8 week old puppy. I also had a dog who passed away a few years ago, and had to take care of her in her senior years and help her get up as she had hip problems. In between dog-sitting, I did babysit dogs for a week, and usually wouldn’t mix dogs unless owners were okay with it. (these owners were from my work or teachers from my high school). I am currently attending college in Duluth. However, I do come home quite a bit Fridays-Mondays. In the summer, I will be very flexible though! I take dogs out on leashes as it makes me feel most comfortable but fenced in yards while watching the dog also makes me feel comfy as well.

About: I've had my 18+ year old cat since he was a kitten and have been around cats and kittens for most of my life. We also have a 7 year old mini goldendoodle who we've trained and raised since he was a puppy so I'm pretty accustomed to being around animals.

“Leah was amazing with my cat, Lizzie! She sent daily updates with photos, and I came home to a very happy, loudly purring kitty. When Lizzie got sick unexpectedly, Leah graciously cleaned everything up and kept me informed right away—which was such a relief while I was away for the week. I can’t recommend Leah enough!”


About: Having my own cat and growing up around cats, I understand that every cat has a unique personality. Whether your cat loves to play, cuddle, or simply enjoys their own space, I’m happy to care for them at their comfort level. I’ll make sure they receive plenty of love, attention, fresh food and water, and a clean litter box while you’re away, so you can have peace of mind.
About: I treat every pet like my own and genuinely enjoy spending quality time with them. I’m reliable and attentive to routines, and my favorite part of pet sitting is the cuddles! Whether that’s couch time, belly rubs, keeping them company, or going on walks, I’m always happy to give pets the love, attention, and care they deserve. Pet care fits easily into my daily and weekly routine. I’m available for overnights, before and after school, and on weekends. I’m happy to do check-ins, walks, feedings, and spend quality time with pets to make sure they’re comfortable, exercised, and well cared for. I prioritize safety, trust, and comfort when caring for pets in both my home and a client’s home. I carefully follow all routines, feeding instructions, and any special care needs. I make sure pets are always supervised, secure, and comfortable in their environment, and I keep owners updated so they can feel confident their pets are safe, loved, and well cared for!

About: I am a patient and attentive sitter, and will do my absolute best to meet all of your pets' needs while they are in my care. I will treat your furry friends as well as I would treat my own. I have owned/cared for a cat for 8 years and counting.

“Tori was awesome! She instinctively knew how to make my cat comfortable with her, and he was happy to play and snuggle when she visited. Tori provided pictures and messages with each visit, and she always left the house secure when she finished her visit. I will definitely reach out to her again in the future!”


About: I have taken care of cats since I was 10. Neighbors, family and friends have asked me to petsit and help care for their kitties. I can care for kittens to seniors and everyone in-between. I can administer medications and have no problem cleaning litter boxes. I have worked as a Vet Tech and am currently in school to become a certified Vet Tech.
“We were looking for a last-minute dog sitter on a holiday weekend, and Christina responded to us within a minute and moved forward quickly with getting the pups. She sent pictures and kept us updated, would recommend!”


About: I’ve had cats my entire life and have loved every minute of caring for them. I have a bit of a soft spot for cats as I have grown so close to my own and love getting to know them at their own pace.

“Our dog is an energetic dog that also needs some supervising and Tracy’s place was a great doggy daycare spot for his needs! She has a big fenced in yard that he can run around in, and dogs that he can play with! Would recommend”

“Kate, John & Cash were wonderful. They go the extra mile to work with you, are skilled & attentive in working with active dogs. Kate & John sent great pictures. It was wonderful that my dog could run in their long, fenced in back yard, wrestle & play tug of war with their dog. Book with them!”

“Yuliya took great care of Millie and Rooster. She sent several photos of their stay and they were happy in all of them bounding around her yard and wagging it up. They were very comfortable with Yuliya and I will definitely book her again in the future.”

“Jody takes amazing care of my pup. She is very diligent and caring, and has gone above and beyond for Roma when she has been sick. I trust Jody and continue to bring my dog for regular pet sitting. Jody is great.”


About: I’ve always loved being around dogs and understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with a part of your family. As a dog owner myself, I know every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs. I have experience with puppies, crate training, leash walking, feeding schedules, basic commands, tricks, and providing lots of exercise and attention. Whether your dog loves long walks, playing fetch, or simply relaxing with company, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I treat every pet like they’re my own and will keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind during your time apart. My goal is simple: give your dog a fun, safe experience and give you confidence that they’re in good hands. I especially enjoy working with puppies and high-energy dogs and understand the importance of consistency, structure, and positive reinforcement. Dogs are already a big part of my daily routine. As a dog owner, my schedule is built around walks, training, playtime, feeding routines, and providing consistent care. I’m actively pursuing opportunities in the dog care and training field, so I genuinely enjoy spending time working with dogs of different ages, personalities, and energy levels. Whether your dog needs exercise, companionship, reinforcement of good habits, or a structured routine while you’re away, I’m committed to providing attentive and reliable care. Safety, structure, and positive experiences are my top priorities. I’m currently expanding my knowledge in dog behavior and training with the goal of building a career in the dog care industry. I take the time to learn each dog’s routine, personality, triggers, and training goals so I can provide consistent care that matches what they’re used to at home. As a dog owner and someone interested in dog training, I believe in positive reinforcement, patience, and clear communication. I closely supervise dogs during walks, playtime, and interactions, and I’m comfortable following feeding schedules, administering basic care, and using crates when requested. I also provide regular photo and video updates so owners can feel confident their dog is safe, comfortable, and well cared for.
About: I’ve owned dogs my entire life and truly understand how important they are as part of the family. Growing up with dogs taught me how to care for them with patience, attention, and lots of love. Today, I have a French Bulldog named Howard, who we treat like our child—so I know firsthand how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care. Due to my career as a flight attendant, I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to spend extra time caring for your furry friend, just as they deserve! Whether it’s walks, playtime, or just keeping your dog company, I’ll treat your pup like one of my own. I’m reliable, attentive, and genuinely love spending time with dogs of all ages, personalities and sizes. I am currently employed as a flight attendant, so my schedule varies month to month! I can often trade trips to change my schedule if needed. Being a flight attendant also allows me to have more days off each month than the average person does with their work schedules. I am more than happy to work with my clients to move my work schedule around to accommodate their service requests, if given enough notice. I am happy to accommodate any requested safety asks that you may have for you pup! While I do not have a fenced in yard, we have a very large property. I also have a very long yard leash if you wish to use that instead of a standard length leash. Whatever ensures that my client feels safe leaving their fur baby, I am more than happy to accommodate!
“Our dog always leaves happy from her stays with Jeremiah and his family which gives us great peace of mind. He has been so flexible and has had great communication with us on the many days we’ve had our Husky stay for doggy day-care. I highly recommend Jeremiah!”

About: Dogs have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. With decades of experience as a pet owner and sitter, I know how to keep tails wagging and owners worry-free. I work from home full-time, so I can be home with your furry friend all day. I can give walks at any time and provide care whenever they need it. Dogs in our home are welcome to roam free if they are house-trained. We allow dogs in all parts of our house. We can set up gates or crates if you prefer your dog to have their own space.
“Coco spent her first day with Sonja, Adam & their pups. I felt completely comfortable leaving her with them. They are personable, warm, & kind. They are clearly, comfortable & knowledgeable about dogs. Coco made herself at home within the first five minutes she was in their home, and had not a care when I left. She clearly had a blast playing with everyone. The pictures tell a story of a happy, relaxed dog who had a boat load of fun, & went home tired. Thank you Sonja & Adam.”

“I was so thankful that my dog could hang out with Kyle and Coco while we took a long day trip. When our plans changed, Kyle was understanding and accommodating. I would definitely book with Kyle again.”

“When our normal sitter for our 18 year old dog was unavailable we selected Dayjah to fill in. As our dog is old, we are very protective with him. We spike with Dayjah on the phone first. It was clear that she not only was very knowledgeable about about pet care, but even more important, she loved animals. Our dog did fantastic with Dayjah. Infact, he did not seem to want to leave when we picked him up. Dayjah has my highest recommendation in providing safe and loving care for your pet!”


“We were traveling to the area with our sweetie Toto. I was running a charity event near Dee Dee and she was able to take care of Toto while I was busy so she didn’t have to sit alone in the hotel. Dee Dee was very flexible and had very good communication! I got fun photos and reports about Toto throughout the door through the app straight to my phone. And I knew Toto was happy, cared for and safe. Thank you so much! We will definitely be repeats next time we add in the area❤️”

“Joey is great! I never worry about my dog when he stays there. He was so excited to go when he did day care and would run to the door when we arrived. Definitely recommend.”


“Debdatta took great care of Kodi! I loved all the photos and videos throughout the day. She really cares for the dogs and treats them like her own. I really appreciate her and know kodi was in great hands”

“Taylor was awesome! She accepted my booking with only 45 minutes to spare and she took adorable pics of my pup while I was out. Will definitely give her a call again!”

About: I’ve had dogs all my life, helping my parents take care of them growing up. In highschool I got a job at a pet hotel and worked there for a year. This was a great experience, I got to see how dogs interact with each other and learned how to take care of different types of dogs. I have also helped house sit some of our family friends dogs. I am home from college and have most days free. I am available most of the days and am happy to work whenever I am needed. I can not watch any dogs in my house. However, I will take good care of your pets in your house. I will follow any instructions given and help keep your pet feel as comfortable as possible.
“Natalie was a godsend when I had to go out of town and my family was unable to get our dog out for proper walks. And she came despite the frigid temps! She was super communicative, happy to help and seemed to enjoy our pup. Definitely booking again!”

About: Hi. My name is Carrie. I love all kind of animals. I have 2 cats right now. I used to have a hampster. I grew up having rodents. I never owned a dog but i sure love them. I used to live with a couple of dogs in thr past but they wasn't mine. I used help take the dogs for walks though and fed them as if they was my own dogs. I love walking them. I love playing with them. Like balls, freezbie. I live in a apartment building and am only allowed to have to pets that live me anyways. I can however babysit as many as pets like other cats or even dogs as i want. There is no rule on that. I just love animals all together. So feel free to message me if you are interested P.S. Just so you know I can't drive but I take metro mobility. I hope that is not a problem. Also, I have found out that i can't have anymore animals that aren't mine so I would have to travel to the Guest's house to watch their pets. I hope that is fine with everyone. I love cats and offer cat sitting as well as dog sitting! I’m happy to stay at your house or visit your kitty while you’re away.

“Steve was wonderful with Mac over the past few weeks. He took excellent care of him and paid close attention to Mac’s cues, helping him feel safe and happy during their walks. Mac was always happy to see Steve at the door—a sure sign he was having a fun time. Thanks again, Steve! :)”

“Alex is a wonderful dog walker. We had an older dog who was declining in health. We’d update her on how our dog’s day was going and she would adjust the walk to meet our dog’s needs that day. She is very professional and always got our dog walk in during the time window we had agreed to.”


“Debdatta has done an amazing job with Finley and Gabby. The dogs love her and she is very attentive, providing frequent updates, asking all the right questions about their care, and ensuring the dogs are well cared for. I would highly recommend her to anyone.”

About: Hi! I’m a teacher looking to spend my summer doing something I love while earning a little extra income. I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life and now have both a dog and a cat (5 years old and 7 years old) of my own. I’ve been caring for friends’ and family’s pets for years, and I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family members. I’d love the opportunity to give your pets lots of love, attention, and care while you’re away!

“Neha was absolutely amazing! I had just moved to a new neighborhood and was looking for someone to give my miniature golden retriever, Leia, dinner, a walk, and some extra belly rubs. Unfortunately, I forgot to update my address in the Rover app, so Neha ended up driving all the way to my old house across the Twin Cities. When she arrived, she noticed that the house didn’t match the photos and instructions I had provided and kindly reached out to me. I was out of town and didn’t see her message for over 30 minutes. I was horrified when I realized my mistake, especially since I was hours away and couldn’t do anything to help. Neha could not have been more gracious and understanding. Despite the inconvenience that I caused, she generously offered to drive to my new home and still take care of Leia. She spent extra time with her, gave her dinner, took her for a walk, and made sure my princess got plenty of love and attention. I am incredibly grateful for Neha’s kindness, flexibility, and patience. She truly went above and beyond, and it meant so much to me. Leia was happy and well cared for, and I would absolutely choose Neha again in the future. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone dependable, compassionate, and genuinely wonderful with pets!”

About: I have cared for animals since I was 10. Neighbors, friends and family have asked me to petsit, walk, bath and help care for their animals. I can care for puppies/kittens to seniors and everyone in-between. I rely on positive reinforcement for training. I can administer medications, trim nails and other care required. I have worked as a Vet Tech and currently I am in school to become a certified Vet Tech. I am currently in school with mostly online classes so I can seamlessly accommodate your pets care. I will send daily updates and/or photos if requested. I care for your pets from the comfort of your home giving you piece of mind while traveling while your pet will be less stressed.
About: I have been around dogs my whole life. Growing up, my parents brought home not one, but two Cavalier King Charles Spaniels, Olive and Winnie. As they’ve gotten older, I’ve gained experience providing the extra care that senior dogs often need. Winnie is diabetic, so I am comfortable administering insulin and monitoring her health. She is also deaf, which has taught me the importance of staying attentive and adapting communication to meet her needs. Olive has only a few teeth left, so I’ve helped adjust her diet by softening her kibble with broth to make mealtimes easier and more comfortable for her. Caring for both dogs has given me firsthand experience with senior dogs, special-needs pets, medication administration, and the patience and attention required to keep them happy, healthy, and comfortable. I am a teacher currently on summer break and working part time at caribou coffee, so I will have plenty of time to devote to pet sitting! I am available every day of the week, and alternating weekends. Whenever I am caring for a pet, I treat them as if they are my own. I have a lot of experience with dogs and dog sitting, as I have two family dogs, and have dogsat in the past
“Isabella was very attentive to all my concerns and details. She handled my strong / energetic dog with ease and made the process super easy (I’m a first timer here). Looking forward to working with her in the long run!”

About: Hi! I’m Steph — a full-time pet caregiver through Rover and the heart behind a growing pet photography business. Animals have always been a big part of my life. I’ve been pet sitting since I was 13 and have experience with all kinds of animals, from high-energy pups to quiet companions. I share my life with my dog Scooby, who’s a big lovebug and gets along great with both people and other animals, and two leopard geckos, Helios and Haku, who each have their own little quirks and charm. Over the years, I’ve worked closely with dogs and cats of all breeds, ages, and temperaments. I also have hands-on experience with pet nutrition and wellness—I've worked with a variety of healthy foods, natural supplements, and holistic care routines. I’m great at picking up on subtle signs when something’s off and take pet health seriously. Whether we’re playing fetch, going for a walk, or just snuggling on the couch, I’m all about creating a calm, loving environment where your pet feels safe and cared for. I tailor my care to each animal’s unique personality and needs, and I always follow your instructions to a T—because your peace of mind matters just as much as your pet’s happiness. My goal is simple: to make sure your pet feels loved, understood, and completely at ease while you’re away. I am very flexible with my schedule so please feel free to send me a request or a direct message to sent up an appointment! I have worked with certified fear free trainers as well as being a groomer for 3 years now I am very aware of animal body language and how to meet their needs so they feel safe in their environment. I do have a dachshund mix named Scooby that is incredibly friendly with Small to XL dogs. She’s always up for having a play date!

“Amazing Care for Our High-Energy Doodle Puppy! We couldn't have been happier with the care Jeremiah provided for our energetic doodle puppy during his three-day stay. Finding someone who can handle a young, high-energy dog is crucial, and Jeremiah exceeded all our expectations. Their home is incredibly clean and nice, and the fenced backyard was perfect for our puppy to burn off steam safely. It was a huge bonus that they have their own sweet doodle—our guy had an absolute blast making a new friend and getting constant companionship! Communication was prompt and reassuring. We received updates and very cute pictures via text throughout the stay, which made us feel completely at ease. They took him on multiple walks and ensured he received excellent care and attention the entire time. Overall, our puppy truly enjoyed his stay, and we are totally satisfied. We will absolutely be repeat customers and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a loving, responsible, and fun home for their dog!”

“Kay and family was definitely a godsend in my last minute attempt to find care for my dog, Henry. Daily updates with pictures and videos and great communication helped me relax knowing he was in good hands. My dog has special needs in the center where he has attachment issues and there was always somebody home at Kay‘s house to be with Henry and her family is just as calming and sweet as what you would picture from her description and photos. Not only a great dog sitter but an amazing human being in life! Can’t thank you all enough!”

“Amy was great! This was my first time having someone watch my dog besides my parents so I was very nervous about leaving my pup with someone new.
