“My pup loves Cynthia and her place! Lots of dogs to socialize with, tons of exercise in the big and fenced backyard, plus abundant love and care is given to all the 4-legged friends. Just between you and me, I think my pup would rather live there than go home with me! A good problem to have 😁 Can’t recommend enough!”
“Maisie was such an amazing help to us! She was very attentive to our newly rescued dachshund and was extremely communicative with us during the sit. She really cares about the pets she sits and we had a great experience with her helping sit Sophie while we were away for Thanksgiving. We will absolutely be booking her again, thank you! 🩵”
“Kassandra was absolutely amazing with my high energy yellow lab! She gave her lots of love and exercise and gave me updates at least daily. We will definitely be bringing Rosie back!”
“Beth and family were awesome to my fur baby. My GoodleDoodle enjoyed all the attention and play time and came home tired out which was great for me to relax to. Will definitely use again!”
“Absolutely could not be happier or more grateful for Margarita and her family. The whole process was super easy and after the meet and greet I left feeling 100% confident that bubba would be in great hands. Then traveling back home from Sioux Falls, we get hammered by blizzard conditions. The last 20 miles before finally giving up, I could barely see the lines on the road, let alone any cars in front of me. So we pulled off and checked in to a hotel. Thankfully Margarita was SUPER understanding and reassuring. I was in a bit of a panic worrying about this and that, and the fact that Loki didn't have to be one of those worries was a huge relief. When we finally made it back the next day I could tell he wasn't super thrilled about leaving, which is always what you want to see. (And with that massive yard, I can't blame him!) Will definitely be "boarding" with her and her family again in the future! Super communicative with updates and photos to put our minds at ease.”
“Lynn was GREAT!!! I have had the same sitter for about three years so I was very nervous to live my Millie with someone new, but Lynn made me feel very comfortable! You can tell she’s an animal lover. After meeting her, I knew Millie’s safety and comfort was going to be #1. When I picked Millie up, she was jumping on Lynn like they had know each other for years. Highly recommend!!”
“Jenna was awesome with my dog. Aspyn is timid and needs a calmer environment, which is just what she got with Jenna. I got several text updates with photos so I felt close to our dog even when far away. Highly recommend Jenna!”
About: Hello! I am a life long pet lover and healthcare provider. I live on a farm with lots of fresh air and space to run. I can’t wait to meet your pup! Feel free to message me with any questions or to schedule a meet-and-greet. I work Tuesday -Friday. Also available for potty breaks during the day. I am mostly available on the weekends but could easily make a day during the week work as well. Our yard is not fenced in but we live on a dead end road. Dogs will be leashed while outside and supervised. Pets allowed in house and living room.
“10/10 would recommend Heidi! My dog did amazing with her and her son and I was definitely worried he wouldn’t. Sent fun updates and I knew my dog was in great hands! She is so kind and friendly!”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for over 7 years through friends, neighbors, and family. I genuinely love spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I’m dependable, patient, and attentive to each pet’s individual needs, whether that means walks, playtime, feeding, medication, or just extra cuddles and attention. I also understand how important communication is, so I always send updates and photos to help owners feel at ease. I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention, playtime, and care throughout the day. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, overnight stays, and pet sitting during weekdays and weekends. I always try to accommodate each pet owner’s routine to help pets feel comfortable and stress-free while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I make sure pets stick to their normal routines as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special care instructions. I provide a calm, clean, and loving environment and pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and needs. I’m also happy to send regular updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is being well cared for while you’re away.
About: I have taken care of pets (mainly dogs) for many years. I have expertise in walking, training, and making sure your pet gets the best care on a regular basis. I am currently in college and have classes M,W,F. I work at a daycare so my hours are different everyday but I still have availability to care for your pets! My weekends are always open. I am looking forward to help out! I care for pets how their owners care for them. I provide them with a caring personality and follow their routine and owner's regulations. That could be going on walks, feeding them, and playtime. Most importantly I want them to be comfortable with me so do that I think it is important to do things with them that they are familiar with.
About: I have a cat who I’ve had for 4 years. I have always had a passion for animals and try my best to be in tune to their languages. I currently own one cat, which requires pilling. If you have a pet that needs a gentle and loving sitter, or even someone to play and keep them stimulated, then I would love to take care of them! I am currently working full-time as a social worker and I am available from 6pm to 10pm Monday through Friday, and 24/7 availability on weekends. I try to let the kitties/puppies take the lead within reason. I like to try to engage them and play, but I will be gentle and calming if they are showing signs of stress. I’m very observant with body language and try to accommodate for them while still maintaining structure.
About: Hi! I’m Aleah, a lifelong animal lover with years of hands on experience caring for pets. I grew up in a home with 6 dogs and 3 cats, so caring for animals has always been a huge part of my life. From energetic puppies to senior pets who need a little extra patience and attention, I’m comfortable with animals of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I currently have a dog of my own, which has given me even more experience with daily care, exercise, training reinforcement, and understanding each dog’s unique needs. I know how important it is to find someone you trust with your furry family member, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply having a calm and reliable companion while you’re away, I’m happy to provide personalized care to keep them comfortable, safe, and loved. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! Because I currently have open availability, I’m able to be flexible with scheduling and can accommodate last minute bookings, extended stays, and pets who need more frequent attention throughout the day. Pet care is something I genuinely enjoy, so I have the time and dedication to focus on providing reliable, attentive care for every animal I watch. I care for every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owner is away. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication administration (if needed), and plenty of attention and affection. In a client’s home, I respect both the pet’s routine and the owner’s space, providing regular updates, photos, and communication for peace of mind. I make sure pets get the exercise, mental stimulation, and companionship they need while maintaining a clean and secure environment. When caring for pets in my home, I provide a calm, safe, and pet friendly environment where they can relax and feel at home. I pay close attention to each animal’s personality and needs, whether they prefer active playtime, long walks, cuddles on the couch, or a quiet place to rest. My goal is always to ensure pets are happy, healthy, and stress-free while their families are away.

About: Hi, I’m Kaitlyn! I've been caring for animals of all shapes and sizes for over a decade — from tiny kittens to large breed dogs like my own lovable Cane Corso. Growing up surrounded by cats and dogs sparked a lifelong passion for animals, and I’ve been pet sitting since I was 12 years old. Whether your pet is high-energy or more laid-back, I’m confident in creating a safe, loving, and fun environment tailored to their needs. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, and I take that responsibility seriously. I’d love to meet your pet and make sure they feel right at home while you’re away! Pet care is a natural part of my daily life! I work a typical 8–5 job Monday through Friday, but I always make time for animals. I have a one-hour lunch break each day, which I use to go home and let my dog out, give him attention, and make sure he’s happy and comfortable. After work, you’ll usually find me walking, playing, or training with him—it’s one of the best parts of my day. On weekends, I’m completely available and fully dedicated to pet care, whether that’s watching over pets in my home or visiting yours. I treat every pet like they’re part of the family. Whether I’m caring for them in my home or yours, I make sure they feel safe, loved, and well-attended to. I follow your pet’s routine as closely as possible—feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special instructions you have. I’m patient, observant, and always respectful of each animal’s unique personality and needs. I also give regular updates so you can feel confident that your pet is in great hands while you're away.
About: I’ve had my dog Zelda for eight years now. Still, each day is just as fun as the last. Her personality is never a challenge, and I love to play with her and take her on walks. My extended family also has many dogs I grew up with, so I am experienced with different types of dogs. I typically have free time in the mornings, as well as in the afternoon. Very willing to be flexible. My weekends are almost always open during the day; and that would be the best time for me to do longer days of care rather than just a couple hours of watching your pet. When I am not at school I have more flexibility during weekdays. In my home, my yard is not fenced, so Zelda is usually on a handheld leash (for quick outside time) or on a long leash (usually tied to the ground) when she wants to do her own thing. I always am supervising her outside to ensure her safety. I am very willing to adapt to different ways of having your dog be outside, as long as I am informed of them beforehand. When inside I always keep a close eye on my dog, as she tends to get into trouble here and there. I always make sure I have toys on hand, as well as treats. Whenever I am taking care of a dog I always try to make sure they are as comfortable as possible.
About: I've intermittently assisted my sister at her pet grooming business over the past 10+years. This time is also when I started watching dogs for some of her clients and I then found clients of my own through word of mouth. I've stayed in people's homes with their pets, I've had pets stay at my home. I have experience with puppies to senior dogs, kittens to senior cats. I have experience with toy breeds to Giant breeds. Domestic felines to hybrid. I grew up on a farm and have been around animals my entire life livestock, wildlife and pets, I have a deep love and respect for them. I've always had a pet dog/cat or both.. currently both. My schedule is currently very open daily, weekly, weekends very flexible. I intend to prioritize pet care in hopes of building a good business base for the near future. Pets in my care get all the love and attention. Vet name and number, emergency contact, medications list needed... I have out door tie outs, a zip line tie out, out door kennel, 2 indoor kennels, I'll let your pet sleep in my bed if it's sad. I want the pets to always be as comfortable and stress free as possible, so whatever that looks like for them is what I'll provide.

“Heidi and her husband have graciously welcomed Belle into their home for daycare a few different times now. I have appreciated how responsive they are, and how readily they and their dogs accept Belle into their family.”
“Margarita has been a wonderful, flexible, accommodating, understanding, champion for me and Spike. He is having a good time there. When I get him he is always a happy puppy and I can tell he is well taken care of. He comes home and he likes to take naps afterward, poor puppy having so much fun with her dogs and her cute youn son. Nice open space for Spike to walk on leash and not worry about his safety. Definitely booking again (already have the reservations). It’s nice to know that my 11week puppy has a loving and caring place that takes care of him while I am at work.”
“This was Harvest’s first stay at Beth’s. He had an amazing time. Harvest rarely eats when left with others (because he can be anxious). He ate all his food there! He is a tired out pup tonight. Harvest will definitely return!”

About: I’ve been caring for pets longer than I can remember - from helping grandma with her horses and barn cats to spoiling and training our own dachshund puppy and two amazing kitties - I am well equipped for any situation. Some background for me: I was born and raised in Alaska! There I took care of cats of varying abilities/disabilities/age, dogs of all sizes and abilities/disabilities/age, and fish! There’s been instances where I have stayed over a month to look over a special needs cat, and dug my car out after a heavy snow to make sure a hyper puppy gets a good hike in! I’m adaptable and communicative - you can be sure that I’ll send you plenty of photos and videos of your pet while you’re gone! Now I’m here in Minnesota to finish college, start life with my new husband, and take care of the pets in Southern Minnesota! I’m currently still a student! But I have Tuesdays, Thursdays, and the weekends for the most part completely open! Otherwise, I will make sure to check in on your pets between classes to ensure they don’t go more than four hours alone. I can’t have a pet in my apartment right now 😭 but when I’m back home in Alaska, we had a fenced area for our dog while she was still with us, and we have two full-time indoor cats. We love to spoil our animals - lots of love, kindness, and a patient environment. Just positive reinforcement and steady routines over here!

Working from home gives me that availability. I’m able to stop over and let animals out if needed as well. I can feed, walk, give meds etc. I care for the animals in their homes. I’m unable to take care of them at my house. A lot of my friends and family prefer that so the animals don’t have to change their environment.
About: We have had the pleasure of owning a small business called "Pet-Inn" and boarded many dogs! Me and my mom took care of others dogs for quite some time and really enjoyed it. This experience helped me become passionate about entrepreneurship as well as working towards a compassionate connection with your pets! I currently have a part-time small business I'm running apart from being a "SAHM" so I will have plenty of time to get to know your beloved pet and get to know them so I can take care of them in the best way I know possible! I have some free time in my schedule, so finding a slot during the week to care for your pet works well for us. I have a now 6-year-old who adores small dogs, cats, and other animals! I am well aware of the responsibilities of pet care, but I want to emphasize that your pet's safety is my top priority.
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.

While that does keep me busy I do love taking care of animals in my free time and being active! I have been to a few training sessions with my own dogs, so I can help out with some basic training tasks. I can easily go on walks and runs with your dog. I’m very flexible with your needs so just let me know!

“My pup loves Cynthia and her place! Lots of dogs to socialize with, tons of exercise in the big and fenced backyard, plus abundant love and care is given to all the 4-legged friends. Just between you and me, I think my pup would rather live there than go home with me! A good problem to have 😁 Can’t recommend enough!”
“Maisie was such an amazing help to us! She was very attentive to our newly rescued dachshund and was extremely communicative with us during the sit. She really cares about the pets she sits and we had a great experience with her helping sit Sophie while we were away for Thanksgiving. We will absolutely be booking her again, thank you! 🩵”
“Kassandra was absolutely amazing with my high energy yellow lab! She gave her lots of love and exercise and gave me updates at least daily. We will definitely be bringing Rosie back!”
“Absolutely could not be happier or more grateful for Margarita and her family. The whole process was super easy and after the meet and greet I left feeling 100% confident that bubba would be in great hands. Then traveling back home from Sioux Falls, we get hammered by blizzard conditions. The last 20 miles before finally giving up, I could barely see the lines on the road, let alone any cars in front of me. So we pulled off and checked in to a hotel. Thankfully Margarita was SUPER understanding and reassuring. I was in a bit of a panic worrying about this and that, and the fact that Loki didn't have to be one of those worries was a huge relief. When we finally made it back the next day I could tell he wasn't super thrilled about leaving, which is always what you want to see. (And with that massive yard, I can't blame him!) Will definitely be "boarding" with her and her family again in the future! Super communicative with updates and photos to put our minds at ease.”
“Jenna was awesome with my dog. Aspyn is timid and needs a calmer environment, which is just what she got with Jenna. I got several text updates with photos so I felt close to our dog even when far away. Highly recommend Jenna!”

About: Hi! I’m Aleah, a lifelong animal lover with years of hands on experience caring for pets. I grew up in a home with 6 dogs and 3 cats, so caring for animals has always been a huge part of my life. From energetic puppies to senior pets who need a little extra patience and attention, I’m comfortable with animals of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I currently have a dog of my own, which has given me even more experience with daily care, exercise, training reinforcement, and understanding each dog’s unique needs. I know how important it is to find someone you trust with your furry family member, and I treat every pet as if they were my own.

I look forward to meeting you and your pets! Because I currently have open availability, I’m able to be flexible with scheduling and can accommodate last minute bookings, extended stays, and pets who need more frequent attention throughout the day.

In a client’s home, I respect both the pet’s routine and the owner’s space, providing regular updates, photos, and communication for peace of mind. I make sure pets get the exercise, mental stimulation, and companionship they need while maintaining a clean and secure environment. When caring for pets in my home, I provide a calm, safe, and pet friendly environment where they can relax and feel at home. I pay close attention to each animal’s personality and needs, whether they prefer active playtime, long walks, cuddles on the couch, or a quiet place to rest. My goal is always to ensure pets are happy, healthy, and stress-free while their families are away.

On weekends, I’m completely available and fully dedicated to pet care, whether that’s watching over pets in my home or visiting yours. I treat every pet like they’re part of the family.
