“Jennifer was amazing!!! She took such precious care of our Mayo buddy! She responded so quickly, allowed for last minute booking, and sent updates the entire time! Mayo loved playing with the Corgis! He never gets to play with dogs his size so he loved that! They had lots of sunshine and outdoor time! We will use Jennifer again!”
“John and Teri did a fantastic job caring for our dog. They are great communicators and we know our dog was well loved while he was staying with them. We would not hesitate to book again and highly recommend to anyone considering!”
“Rachel did a great job with Ralphie! He was happy and seemed to enjoy his time with her. She took him to the park a few times! I would be comfortable using her services again!”
“Heather took great care of my doggo over the holidays. I know he had a blast from the photos she sent. Happy to know my dog has a new furry friend to hang out with.”
“Our puppy was showered with love and received personalized care while we were away for a long weekend. We received regular updates, and Sarah was very flexible with our requests. They love dogs. We felt safe leaving our puppy with them. Great family.”
“Aish and her family were wonderful. They sent many pictures and videos. My dog, Pepper, seemed to have a good time playing with the other dogs she had there. This was our first time using Rover and we were super nervous about leaving our baby with anyone. I think Pepper misses being over there now playing with the others. Due to the BWCA wildfires we had to end our trip early. Aish made sure to refund the money for the other days right away without me even asking. She responded immediately to all my texts. I would definetly use her to watch my Pepper again.”
“Kirsten's home and yard are pet friendly, our young dog loved staying there. We received daily updates & photos, and Kirsten kept us informed of any concerns, e.g. trouble sleeping.”
“I can't say enough about Karen, from the meet n great through the entire stay. She was very thorough with details and communication. She welcomed my fur baby into her home and loved him like her own. She did an amazing job keeping him in his daily routine. This was the first time he has stayed with anyone other than family and I could not be happier. The daily updates and photos helped me enjoy my vacation knowing he was in great hands! I could tell with the photos that he was really loved and super happy. I look forward to booking more stays and highly recommend her and her family.”
“We had an amazing experience with Carley and Austin! They took fantastic care of Walter and were so easy to work with. They are incredibly nice and kept me updated with great communication throughout the stay. We’ll definitely be using them again—highly recommend!”
“Auggie and Ollie seemed to love it there. I was initially concerned they'd not like being "part of a pack", but Mike gave them each attention so they were content there. They were happily tired when they got home. The fenced in backyard is a big plus, as well as the texts, photos, and video! Very reasonably priced. I will use his services again ?”
“This is the longest I've ever left Mia and I did not want to board her at a kennel for 12 nights. Lan kept me updated with pictures and videos that made me relax and enjoy my vacation more knowing she was well taken care of and had a buddy to play with too. Thanks Lan!”
“Kelly did a great job watching Charlie over the 4th of July. He was very happy throughout his stay. I appreciated the pictures and updates over the holidays. We would definitely book with Kelly again.”
“This was the first time we had the pleasure of working with Monika and family and all I can say is we would 100% use them again! They were so kind and caring and our golden retriever, Willow, had an amazing time there. I got plenty of pictures of her having fun with their other dogs, as well as snuggling with the humans in the household. They were amazing to work with and flexible when our travel plans changed slightly. I would highly recommend booking with this family!”
“Robert and his wife took excellent care of our dog Jasper over a long weekend. He sent daily updates, which was very appreciated. I can tell that Jasper settled in and felt comfortable there, and he came home relaxed and happy. Thanks!”
“Dynette is an amazing person and did a wonderful job watching our pup, Mocha. I felt comfortable and confident leaving Mocha in her care; she sent photos during her stay. I highly recommend her and we will be back.”
“Thank you for taking such great care of Grizzly. He came home happy and tired. We loved receiving all of the updates and photos. We will definitely be reaching out the next time we need a dog sitter!”

About: I’ve grown up around animals and genuinely love caring for them like they’re part of the family. I’m reliable, attentive, and understand that every pet has their own personality and needs. I’m experienced with dogs of different ages and temperaments. I pay close attention to routines, feeding instructions and medications. I’ll always keep you updated with photos and check-ins to give you peace of mind. I work a flexible hybrid schedule - 3 days in office, 2 days at home. When we leave our dog home alone to roam the house Monday - Friday, she is alone 8:00 to 12:00 and 1:00 to 5:00 with a mid-day lunch and potty break. We have a 2-year-old 75 lb Pyredoodle who LOVES to play and wrestle, so your dog will have a built-in buddy. We also have a fully fenced backyard for safe playtime and exercise. Dogs are welcome on the furniture and beds. Our home is smoke-free and kid-free.
“Samantha was wonderful with our cat Buddy! She spent a lot of time with him every day and took very good care of him including brushing and spending time on the deck together. She sent pictures every day so I could see how happy Buddy was!”
About: I have had a lot of pets currently I have two cats and a snake. In the past I have lived in households with dogs who have been left in my care for extended periods of time. I also have some experience with dog training. I do currently have a full-time job, however I work afternoons/nights so I am available before work as well as my days off, I have a set schedule so I am always available the same days. I have never lived in a house without any pets, so I am very confident reading body language to make sure animals are comfortable with me
“Emily was so incredible watching my 3 cats. My cats are a little high maintenance with prescription foods and feeding separately, but she handled it perfectly. She was so responsive and the line of communication was always open. I also will add that I’ve used Rover MANY times and she sent the best photos I’ve ever received back. It was so nice to have her watching and caring for my babies. Plus when I got home from the visit my place was clean and better than I had left it. Emily is wonderful and I will for sure be using her again. 10/10.”
“Kallyn is wonderful! We have a shy cat who tends to hide when we’re away. He loved Kallyn from the moment she walked in the door and came out to see her while we were gone! She sent lots of updates and pictures and was great to work with. Couldn’t recommend more!”
About: Hi! I’m Danielle, and I’d love to care for your cat while you’re away. I’m a millennial, born and raised in Florida, but I’ve lived in Minnesota for a decade. I’m a devoted cat owner to my sweet boy, Maverick, for over 10 years. I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust to take care of your kitty. I am very gentle, kind, and great with cats of all breeds! I provide calm and attentive care while following your instructions closely. During each visit I’ll provide fresh food, water, clean the litter box, offer playtime, and companionship.
About: We’ve owned and taken care if cats for decades. We love everything about them and currently no longer have one so are more than happy to give yours the love and attention they deserve! We host only one family of pets at a time, providing a private, stress-free stay with our family.
“Elyse met up with us at it home to get a general lay of the land; to see what we needed and it turns out that she is a super wonderful woman. We had her come by to make sure our super shy cat, Anne Bonny, was fed. Now, I hardly see this cat and she loves me, but on day one, Anne Bonny was rolling over and letting Elyse rub her belly! I'm hoping that Elyse is available every time we need to go out of town!”
“There are no words to express my gratitude to Jessica she was sweet and caring. I was out for a weekend and it is the first time I had to live my cat alone; Jessica babysat her and followed all the routine and perks my cat is used to. Even though Peggy is sort on the shy side, she loved Jessica and I was able to confirmed it when Jessica stopped by to drop the keys, my cat went down her tower to greet her. I will definitely schedule her again if I need to get out of town.”
“Mikael made sure out kitties were well-fed and loved while we were out of town! They seemed very content when we came back home! Very communicative and easy to get a hold of! We would be happy to have her pet sit again!”
“Megan was wondering and both our dogs loved her. She came over for an hour visit for a few different days and the pups were so happy to see her and wanted to cuddle with her. Will definitely use Megan again!”
“We love this guy! Derek is very friendly, honest, and sincere. It's clear he loves animals and vice-versa. My cats liked him a lot and he was good about following our instructions, and making adjustments as needed. We will definitely use him again! Highly recommended.”

“Giovana and her family were so wonderful with Skye. I couldn’t have asked for a better puppy sitter. Thank you so much for treating Skye like he was part of your family. If I need a sitter again, hopefully you are available. 😁”
“This was our first experience using Lynn to provide an afternoon of daycare for our two, 1-1/2 yr old labs Maggie and Willow. Lynn met with us for a visit before we booked this daycare service and we found Lynn to be very knowledgeable, confident, cheerful and pleasant to work with. She did a great job answering all of questions and gave us the time we needed to ask them. On the day of daycare she took extra care in introducing our pups to the other dogs since Maggie can be very timid and a bit insecure. Everything went really well and by all indications Maggie and Willow had a great time. We will certainly book future stays with Lynn.”
About: I care for each pet as if they were my own. I walk, run and play with them. I treat every pet like a friend, offering comfort, attention and emotional connection. I bathe my dog about every other month. We have a routine in the morning with a walk before breakfast. Sometimes a walk around lunch time and another one after work is done. He is well loved and treated like a family member. I work full time Monday through Friday. I am in my office 3 half days and full time at home the other 2 days. I could stop at someone’s place on my way home to spend time with a dog and walk them. I can also stop over after work and later in the evening. In my home I have a fenced in yard that my dog can run free and play. If I am in a clients home I would make sure that there is nothing that the dog/puppy could get into after spending time with them/walking them.
“Mike is awesome!!! My dog Giggles is a major mamas girl... she was nervous as I left but loved her stay with Mike!! He is attentive and sensitive to owners feelings. He sent pictures and videos throughout her stay. She was having a blast!! We will defiantly be using Mike in the future!!”
About: We live in a large two story townhouse that provides lots of indoor play space. We live in a townhouse community that has a large common area in the front and back. We also have a deck that your pet can lounge on. We live near lots of walking paths and a dog park. We also live near the edge of town and close walking distance to the river. My husband and I have five children who love pets of all kinds and are full of energy. I work a full time seasonal job so I will have more flexibility come the winter months. Our weekends are generally free. During the week is a bit hectic with having five kids in school with various activities. We have an unfenced yard but live close to dog parks. We have plenty of room in our home to give your pet a safe/quiet space if needed.
About: Your pup will be the only one in our care during their stay! They will get all the cuddles, all the love, all the attention and all the things! They will enjoy our fenced in backyard and will be allowed to roam through our entire home. Jazmin is a college student home for the summer, and is in her 3rd year. She is on the deans list, and committed to getting good grades, being reliable and dependable, and willing to help provide a loving home for your pet! Jazmin will be away starting mid-August and since our family enjoyed every single dog we had over the summer, Mary has decided to continue providing care to help offset college expenses. Mary works from home, so your pup will never be alone for more than a couple hours if needed to run errands. We had a boxer that we raised from 10 weeks old to 12 years old. Unfortunately she was laid to rest in February 25, so your pet will be given a lot of love and affection and help fill our empty home. We have experience with puppy's all the way to senior dogs who are blind, deaf, diabetic, have seizures, etc. We have watched family's, neighbors, and friends dogs. We would be honored for you to share your pup with us while you are away. Our price reflects our care and amenities; fenced in yard with shade trees, allowed on beds and couches, we don't require a kennel unless needed, we wash food/water bowls daily, a GPS tag will be used in case you pup escapes, someone is always home, numerous walks around the block, pictures will be sent daily, access to all 3 levels of our home and we only take 1 family at a time! Jazmin will return from school in December 2025-January 2026 and again in mid-May 2026 to mid-August 2026. Is this your first time on Rover? Use Code: JAZMIC96925, to get $20 off your first booking after you sign up! Jazmin is away at college right now. Mary works from home and can attend to your dog as much as needed. Someone will always be home with your pet so they can receive the adequate amount of care that they need. We are also available for dog walking, potty breaks at the pets home, and pretty much everything. We have a fenced in yard, dogs are allowed on the couch, bed and all areas of our home. Whether you prefer kennel or no kennel either works for us, walks will be provided upon request and medication for senior dogs will be administered if needed. I am open for helping in whatever way I can, and I am willing to accommodate within reason.
“This was the first time we used Rover. We left Gunner for a daycare day to start. Carolyn and Kristopher were great with Gunner. Carolyn wrote down all the details of Gunner’s normal routine and his particular needs. He came home very tired which was a win. We will be using them again in February for a longer stay. So thankful we found such wonderful people to leave him with.”
About: I have watched all ages of dogs and all different breeds. I love taking dogs on walk, I walk my dog twice a day and I can give dogs medication if they are on meds and I I love playing catch with dogs and just giving them extra snuggles😊 I work a full time job but can help with pet care before the start of my day at anytime before 7:30am and I can do pet care after 4pm on the weekdays. Weekends I am more viable and can do more pet care anytime throughout the day. I care my pets by taking them on walks twice a day, playing catch outside. I feed them twice a day and give lots of snuggles. I have a German Shepherd and he loves to play and snuggle and is a big mommy’s boy❤️
“Tofte is always so happy to get to Bethany's. Sometimes he isn't sure if he is ready to leave at the end of the day which is a great sign. On nice days like today, spending time exploring and playing in Bethany's fenced in back yard is a treat!”

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since even a young age. I was 11 years old when I got my own dog to take care of as well as raise. I’ve been hooked with animals majority of my life and love them all. They are family and I treasure as well as treat them like family. I do understand medical needs so if your pet needs special medicine I have no problem working with them. I am diligent and able to administer medication as well as go on walks or anything else you need for your pet. I also love to send updates of how the fur babies are doing. 😊 I live on a farm with a fenced in dog pen available. I also have 2 friendly dogs that play well with fur babies. However, I do understand the concerns of meeting new pets and have crates for my dogs to go to for separation if requested.
About: I’ve been caring for my current dog for 5 years, previously I had a pup that I cared for 2 years. Over the years, neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me to walk their pups, keep them fed on schedule. Those early experiences taught me how to be patient, responsible, and attentive to each dog’s unique personality. Caring for pets has always come naturally to me, and that long‑standing trust from the people around me is something I’m really proud of. I am also a huge fan of training pets, though im not certified to do so as yet. This is currently my full time job at the moment as I transition in the workforce. That means more time for your pet, more time for play and fun or just naps. My space is clean, pet‑friendly, and thoughtfully arranged to keep every pet safe and comfortable. I’ve created a home environment where pets can feel relaxed, stimulated, and genuinely cared for. My neighborhood has beautiful, safe trails just a short walk away, so dogs get plenty of outdoor time, fresh air, and enriching adventures suited to their energy level. Inside, I’ve set up a designated nap room — a quiet, cozy space where pets can unwind, recharge, or enjoy some peaceful alone time whenever they need it.
About: I had dogs growing up and I currently have my own dog. Iv taken care of two litters of puppies. Our family pug had puppies and so did our springer spaniel. We also had a chocolate lab. My current dog is a 1 year old Rottweiler. He is so much fun! Iv been walking dogs for about a year using Wag. I have a full time job and I take care of pets part time. Im usually available after 3pm everyday. I try to walk at least 3 dogs a week. I truly love dogs, all dogs. I will give your dog my full attention while we walk together, meaning I give eye contact, call their name in a playful way, and give them treats (with owner’s permission) and water if they listen to my commands. They will see me as their source of entertainment while getting a great exercise. I will walk or run depending on what your dog wants. Your dog will be very safe with me, I’m strong enough to handle any dog and I double check the harness is secure and double wrap the lease around my wrist.
“Jessica took amazing care of my dog while I was at work! She sent updates and great pictures to put this nervous dog mama at ease! I will definitely be using Jessica again! She is a rock star ⭐️”
About: Hi! I'm a dependable, compassionate animal lover who believes every pet deserves to be treated with patience, respect, and genuine care. Reliability, safety, and integrity are at the core of everything I do, so you can trust that your pets will be cared for as if they were my own. Before transitioning into animal care, I spent over a decade serving my community as a firefighter and paramedic. During that time, I not only cared for people during emergencies but also had the privilege of rescuing animals from fires and other emergency situations. I also completed Basic Animal Rescue Technician (BART) training, giving me additional knowledge in safely handling and caring for animals during stressful situations. Those experiences reinforced the importance of remaining calm under pressure, paying close attention to details, and treating every life with compassion and respect. I've spent years around dogs of all sizes, breeds, ages, and temperaments, including training my own service dog using positive, relationship-based methods. I understand that every animal is unique, and I take a calm, mindful approach to building trust and helping them feel safe and comfortable. Whether your companion is an energetic puppy, a senior dog, a shy rescue, or another type of animal altogether, I'm comfortable caring for a wide variety of pets and adapting to their individual needs. My goal is to provide dependable care, clear communication, and peace of mind while you're away, ensuring your pet receives plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. Throughout my career—whether caring for people or now caring for animals—my philosophy has remained the same: show up when it matters, pay attention to the details, and treat every life with kindness, respect, and compassion. I can be pretty flexible and adaptable to your scheduling needs, and I'm open to having things set up on a recurring schedule, or filling last minute needs when I'm available and not tied up in family matters. Your pet's safety, comfort, and well-being are always my highest priorities. I take the time to learn each pet's routine, personality, and any special needs so I can provide care that feels familiar and minimizes stress. Whether we're out on a walk or spending time together at home, I use a calm, patient approach that helps pets feel safe and secure. When caring for pets in your home, I'll treat both your home and your animals with the utmost respect. I'll carefully follow your instructions regarding feeding, medications, exercise, and household routines, while maintaining a clean and secure environment. I'll also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is happy and well cared for while you're away. My goal is to be someone you can trust completely—providing dependable, attentive care while giving you peace of mind and ensuring your pets are treated like members of my own family.
About: As far back into my childhood as I can recall, my immediate and extended family has always had dogs and other pets as well. To this day I think it still hold true that our pets are so much more than just pets and with that being said it’s so important they are treated with as much care and love we would treat someone else in our family. It can be frightening leaving your pet in someone else’s hands when you have to be away however that’s why I hope you’ll choose me and put your trust in my hands with your pet. I have had the opportunity of being old enough to help my parents raise the dogs that we had growing up as well as in recent years adding a cat and bearded dragon in to the mix as well. My summer schedule is overall flexible and allows me to be more available and present with any pets I am caring for at the time. I personally have a fenced in yard and two decks for the dog to go off of to spend time outside. While visiting clients homes I’d prefer to not have to stay over as packing/running back and forth is slightly inconvenient however I am not opposed to this option depending on my schedule for that week.

“Kirsten's home and yard are pet friendly, our young dog loved staying there. We received daily updates & photos, and Kirsten kept us informed of any concerns, e.g. trouble sleeping.”
“I can't say enough about Karen, from the meet n great through the entire stay. She was very thorough with details and communication. She welcomed my fur baby into her home and loved him like her own. She did an amazing job keeping him in his daily routine. This was the first time he has stayed with anyone other than family and I could not be happier. The daily updates and photos helped me enjoy my vacation knowing he was in great hands! I could tell with the photos that he was really loved and super happy. I look forward to booking more stays and highly recommend her and her family.”
“We had an amazing experience with Carley and Austin! They took fantastic care of Walter and were so easy to work with. They are incredibly nice and kept me updated with great communication throughout the stay. We’ll definitely be using them again—highly recommend!”
“Auggie and Ollie seemed to love it there. I was initially concerned they'd not like being "part of a pack", but Mike gave them each attention so they were content there. They were happily tired when they got home. The fenced in backyard is a big plus, as well as the texts, photos, and video! Very reasonably priced. I will use his services again ?”
“Kelly did a great job watching Charlie over the 4th of July. He was very happy throughout his stay. I appreciated the pictures and updates over the holidays. We would definitely book with Kelly again.”
“This was the first time we had the pleasure of working with Monika and family and all I can say is we would 100% use them again! They were so kind and caring and our golden retriever, Willow, had an amazing time there. I got plenty of pictures of her having fun with their other dogs, as well as snuggling with the humans in the household. They were amazing to work with and flexible when our travel plans changed slightly. I would highly recommend booking with this family!”

“Thank you for taking such great care of Grizzly. He came home happy and tired. We loved receiving all of the updates and photos. We will definitely be reaching out the next time we need a dog sitter!”
“Paid Lynn tip money when we picked our baby up instead of through this app. Loved all the photos Lynn sent along with the updates throughout our dogs stay. We felt very comfortable knowing the outdoors were completely fenced in. And, if needed, the ability to separate dogs in the house with baby gates. Our puppy seemed to enjoy her stay with naps, playtime and her meals.”
“Crosby came home exhausted, which was needed as we were tired from our trip! He had plenty of outside time and play time. Really appreciated that Jessica has a fence! Will book with her again!”
