“I’m so grateful to have found Aish and her family! They take such great care of our dog, and it’s clear he’s happy and comfortable when he’s with them. It’s a huge relief for me to know he’s in such good hands while I travel. Thanks again ❤️❤️”
“This was the second stay for our standard poodle and we already feel like we are dropping him off with family! The pictures and video they send tell us Beau not only feels at home, but is having the time of his life! They have so much fun with him and him with them. Thank you John and Teri! You guys are amazing. ❤️”
“Trudy and her family are wonderful! They welcomed our dog into their home and loved on him like he was a part of their family! It was evident he was well cared for and had so much fun during his stay. Definitely recommend!”
“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.”
“First use of Rover, but Chelsie was a great introduction. She sent great pictures, enjoyed our dog and was very engaged in the pet having a good stay. Would recommend, we will be repeat customers.”
“Buddy LOVED being at Becky's house! He loved being with the other dogs. I could tell he was a happy tired when he got home. :-) Becky and her family definitely welcome your pet into their home as one of their own. -Kim”
“Rachel was great with our dogs, she took them on short notice, she treated our dogs like family, took them for walks, sent us pictures and videos daily. We would absolutely recommend her and use her again! Our dogs loved her! Thank you!!!”
“Alecia and Todd are fantastic. We were a little nervous because we’ve had varying degrees of success leaving our pup with a sitter, but Alecia, Todd, and their family took great care of him. They went above and beyond to make sure he was comfortable - he even made new dog friends at their house😁. Communication was a breeze and we received thoughtful updates throughout our time away. Hope to book with Alecia and Todd again!🩵🩵”
“Sarah, Richard and their family were so amazing to our pup while we were away. They made her part of their family immediately and allowed us to enjoy our vacation more because we knew she was being so well taken care of. Highly recommend and would use again in a heartbeat!”
About: I’m a dedicated dog lover with experience caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities. I grew up with both dogs and horses, and our animals were always treated as part of the family. I understand how important it is to find someone you trust to care for your pet while you’re away. I’ve cared for everything from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need a slower, gentler pace. Every dog is different, and I take the time to learn their routines, preferences, and personalities to make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. At home, I have two Australian Cattle Dogs, Sydney (4) and Roo (2), both rescues. They’re active, social, and always happy to welcome new companions. Before them, I raised my dog Cooper from 7 weeks old through 14 wonderful years. I also regularly provide in-home dog sitting for friends and family, with stays ranging from a few days to several weeks. I work from home which provides me plenty of time to keep an eye on your pup and let them out for potty breaks. I also try to work in some play time during the day where I can. My dogs insist the ball is thrown for them a lot! I feed my my own dogs around 6:30/7am and 3:30/4pm daily. I have a nice big yard with a privacy fence and 2 well socialized, friendly and playful dogs. I have good size kitchen and living room areas that can be gated off the pups need some quiet time to themselves.
“I don’t think Birdie wanted to come home! It seems like she had a great time at Lan’s house and Lan followed all care instructions to the letter. It was my first time using Rover and Lan made me feel like my gal was in great hands. Thank you!”
“Great sitters, nice family. Our dogs had a great time there and immediately fell asleep when they got home after all the play time. Will be booking again with Liana and Dan in the future.”
“Kami is amazing. Her care and attention to Maya was a great assurance while I was on vacation. Kami kept me updated with pictures and messages throughout the week. I got to see Maya having an awesome time at Kami’s.”
“Kirsten was so patient with me...she cared for my senior dog over a long holiday weekend, with storms. Emma felt safe while spending time in her family and enjoyed the big fenced yard. Emma was allowed to sleep in the bedrooms at night. Kirsten sent pictures daily so I cld be reassured Emma was doing well. I wld highly recommend Kirsten.”
“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!”
“Brittany was a great fit for our pup. She was communicative throughout the booking and sorting process, had a good space for him to stay, and really welcomed him into her family while we were gone. Thank you!”

“Jennifer took great care of our two cats for 10 days while we were away. She came in twice a day to feed them, give them attention and administer insulin injections to our diabetic cat. This was our first experience hiring someone we did not know to care for them, so we were a little nervous. Jennifer took time to do a meet and greet and our cats did really well with her. I think they could tell she was very calm and caring. She provided regular updates and photos after each visit and checked to see if she could help with other things (like trash or mail). When she had a flat tire on the way to one visit, she communicated the issue right away and made arrangements to make it to our home only a little later than planned. Our cats did really well in her care and we won’t hesitate to hire her again.”
“Highly recommend Kallyn to watch your pets! She was great at communication, has a lot of experience taking care of animals, and genuinely cares about their well-being. I know my senior cat was in excellent hands!! I will definitely ask kallyn to take of my pets in the future.”
“Julia did an incredible job with my cats. Very communicative, sent great photos, and overall did a great job with them. One of my cats requires regular medication and had no problems administering the meds. Highly recommend and will definitely be booking again!”
About: I have had cats in my life since I was a child. I have always loved them! One of the first things I did when I was out on my own (that was a long time ago!) was to adopt a kitten. I have been a cat mom ever since. My husband and I currently have 2 cats, Charlie, who is quite a character, and Reese, who is shy and sweet. I have experience with kittens, senior cats, and those with special needs. I would love to treat your kitties with the same love as I give my own.
About: I have always had a love for animals and enjoy caring for cats and getting to know their unique personalities. I understand that every cat has different needs, routines, and comfort levels. I’m patient, gentle, responsible, and attentive, and I enjoy providing companionship, playtime, affection, and a calm environment. I know that some cats are social and playful while others need more space and time to warm up. I will respect each cat’s personality and care for them as if they were my own.
“Haylee was very courteous and responsible. She took great care of my cat Phoebe and of my home as well. She followed all instructions and sent lots of photos which was greatly appreciated!”
“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.”
About: I absolutely love cats and have been pet sitting cats and dogs for 4 years. I’ve had 2 cats of my own for most of my life and currently have 17 year old cats. I also have experience administering medicine to cats such as pills and fluids!
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.
“Perla did a great job looking after our 2 cats while we were away on vacation for 11 days. She took time to send us photos every day and took great care of keeping up on their food/water/litterbox. Our cats are normally very shy and took to her immediately, I will 100% use her services in the future 😊”
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
“Whitney was so helpful in dropping in on our two cats during vacation! She spent time playing with them and filling up their food and water feeders. I felt relieved knowing someone they liked was stopping by to show them some attention. I’ll definitely be hiring her again in the future!”
“Corey and Mia were incredible. My cat is so-so about so many people, but they had the magic touch. I got updates everyday with photos and updates on what they were doing, although I never doubted that they were taking care of him. I felt more peace of mind leaving Stanley with Corey and Mia than I have felt even leaving him with my friends. I will certainly be bringing Stanley back, and could not recommend them more!”
About: Hi! I’m Courtney. I’ve always been the person who ends up spending more time with the pets than the people. I love getting to know every dog’s or cat’s personality, whether they’re playful, goofy, shy, or happiest snuggled up on the couch. Honestly, hanging out with animals is one of my favorite ways to spend a day. Friends and family have trusted me with their pets for years, and I treat every animal like they’re my own. Whether that means walks, playtime, belly rubs, or just keeping them company while you’re away, I’m happy to meet them where they’re most comfortable. I’d love the chance to meet you and your pet! I currently work, but I have a flexible schedule and can often adjust my hours to fit your pet’s needs. Whether it’s drop-in visits, walks, or overnight care, I’m happy to work with you to find a schedule that keeps your pet comfortable and cared for. My biggest priority is making sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’ll follow their normal routine as closely as possible, keep a close eye on them, and make sure they always have what they need. I’m comfortable administering oral medications, and while I haven’t had the opportunity to give injectable medications yet, I’m more than willing to learn if you’re able to show me your pet’s routine. Every animal is different, and I enjoy getting to know what helps each one feel the most comfortable so they can feel at home even while you’re away.

“Jax's first stay with Leanna went great! She took lots of pictures of his stay and even sent us home with a gift - she made us an absolutely adorable ornament with Jax's paw print! I would definitely choose her again to care for our baby!”
“Snow had a good time over at their place, I was going to be busy with work for the whole day and I found them available the day before. They sent pictures of her during her stay as well. Overall, Snow's satisfied so I am too.”
“Maxie was having separation anxiety and Brittany was totally understanding of that. Once we work with Maxie to get her use to others outside of our family I would absolutely book with Brittany again”
“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.”
“Elizabeth was fantastic with our boy - we really appreciated her reassurance and check ins. She let us know he was doing great. Would definitely use Elizabeth again next time we visit Minneapolis!”
“I am new to the area, and Chelsie was very close by. She responded promptly and communicated clearly. I brought Riley over, and Chelsie kindly met me at the car. I was having some difficulty with the long lead, and Riley immediately went up to her as if they had known each other for a long time. When Riley heard the dogs barking inside the house, she led Chelsie to the door, which was quite charming. I realized I forgot to mention something to Chelsie, but she responded right away. On my way back to pick up Riley, I got caught in traffic, so Chelsie graciously brought Riley out to me, and Riley happily got into the car without any issues. After we returned home, I noticed that Riley's card was filled out, and there was a detailed note, along with photos of Riley's day, showing that she had gone for a walk and played with her dogs. Overall, I would rate the experience as excellent, and Riley will definitely be visiting again.”
About: My family and I have always had pets and we love them dearly! Pets bring such joy into a home and we would love for your pet to join our family for a visit. I work from home and my husband is home multiple days per week so there is always someone to play and cuddle your pets! We have an energetic 5 year old who loves animals and is very respectful of their space! We have a large fully fenced in back yard so lots of room to run and play. There are two adults, a 5 year old and a 3 month old in the house so many opportunities for snuggles and play! We lost our dog last year to old age and my son would love to have some pets visit to play! Animals are allowed on the furniture but we will respect the rules you have in place for your pet while they are home.
“I sent my dogs for a fun daycare day and they came back so tired! I know they had a wonderful day. Kelsey was super sweet and informative, also sending pupdates throughout the day.”
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.
“Second time to leave our pup with Elizabeth and I could tell by how excited he was when we came back that he enjoyed his last stay. Elizabeth was also very kind to accommodate Tubby overnight as a last minute request due to a family emergency.”
“Brittni took good care of Zadie for the day she was there. There was an incident with another dog, and she made sure to communicate right away and went through the proper channels to make sure everything was documented. Her and her husband took good care of zadie before and after the incident to help her feel safe and calm.”
About: I have 4 pets of my own. I have also worked at an animal shelter for 2 years. I'm available for kittens, overnights and extended stays. Daycare, overnight and extended stay for dogs. Drop in visits for adult and elderly cats. I'm hoping to switch my main focus to helping pet parents. With 4 of my own loves, pet care is literally my daily routine. I will bring the dogs on walks, sit out with them to play in the yard. We have lots of toys and interactive food games.
“We had such a great experience with Giovana! She was very responsive and kept us updated throughout the day with photos and messages. It was clear that Kit was well cared for and loved — Giovana truly treated her like part of her own family. We’re so grateful for her kindness and attention, and we’ll definitely be using her services again!”
“Our two dogs had a wonderful first day at Topsy's. They were both happy and relaxed when I picked them up and brought them home. Topsy communicated throughout the day and sent cute pics of our dogs which is always appreciated but especially when it is the first time. Our kids tease us and say our dogs are our favorite children, and they are not far from the truth! So it always makes us feel good to find someone who likes and cares for our dogs. We will definitely bring our them to Topsy's again!”
“As soon as we pulled onto their street, my dog started to squeal in excitement! This was his second stay here. It's really convenient to drop him off here while we get some runs in at Afton Alps. He was happy and tired at the end of the day.”
“Tofte had a great time at Bethany's! She provided great detail on his end-of-day report card and had lots of pictures that showed that he enjoyed his day with her.”
“Mike is the most amazing dog sitter ever he takes such good care of all the dogs in his care. My Finn is very shy and has medical needs and Mike has been just the best about helping with everything so thankful we found him. Finn loves comimg to see his friend Mike.”

About: I have experience owning and caring for Miniature Schnauzers and Miniature Dachshunds. These dogs have taught me so much about patience, companionship, routines, and the unique personalities and needs of different breeds. I truly love dogs and enjoy giving them the attention, affection, exercise, and care they deserve. I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe, comfortable, and loved when their families are away. I would treat every dog in my care like one of my own. As a self-employed person who works from home, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide plenty of time, attention, and companionship to the animals in my care. Working from home means I can be available throughout the day for feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and check-ins. I’m able to work around each pet’s individual routine and needs, while still keeping up with my own work responsibilities. I love having the opportunity to give pets the care, attention, and love they deserve while their families are away. I would care for a client’s pet as if it were my own. I would follow the owner’s instructions carefully, keep the pet’s feeding, medication, exercise, and potty schedule consistent, and give them plenty of attention and affection. I would also keep the home clean and safe, provide regular updates to the owner, and make sure their pet feels comfortable, loved, and secure while they’re away.
About: I/we are very loving all around. I go to the pet level. I put myself in your shoes and feel the same about how I would want my pet treated and cared for. I have many years and experience in pet sitting and in pet therapy, rescue and fostering. My friends and family trust me completely to take care of their animals. Myself and my husband and side kick Bob, love all kinds of fur babies and decided to turn our passion into a business, where both of us have the pleasure of meeting you, your pets, and doing drop in visits in your home. Mostly, we will treat and love your fur babies just like they are our own. I will make visiting your home and your pets a top priority. I have a lot of flexibility in my schedule to meet your needs. I have a safe and clean environment. I have plenty of toys and cat treats. I have lots of playtime and keep a regular routine for them. I get down to their level and give them lots of love and attention, as I would with your pets as well. I also have a husband who is a great cat daddy and is a wonderful wingman and he loves animals including dogs as much as I do. We would treat our pet sitting responsibilities seriously, as well as respecting your home and pets for pet sitting.
“Yascha has been doing regular walks with our dogs for a few weeks now. Dogs are super excited when he arrives. Yascha has been very responsive and has been accommodating to all requests (harness type, protective dog clothing in inclimate weather, wiping dogs feet etc). Would definitely recommend Yascha!”

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I grew up around a veterinary clinic and have worked as a veterinary assistant for the past 7 years, giving me hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. Through both clinic work and pet sitting, I’m comfortable administering medications, caring for senior pets, handling anxious or nervous animals, and working with puppies who may need extra supervision, potty breaks, patience, or routine reinforcement. I recently graduated from Bradley University and currently have a flexible schedule for walks, drop-ins, and house sitting throughout the week and weekends. I’m available for morning, afternoon, and evening visits and can work around your pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, medications, playtime, and bedtime routines. I’m especially comfortable with pets who need more frequent check-ins, senior pets who may need extra attention, and puppies who benefit from structured routines and regular potty breaks throughout the day. I also love keeping owners updated and am happy to send regular messages and photos so you know how your pet is doing. Creating a safe, calm, and comfortable environment for pets is very important to me. Because of my 7 years of experience working in a veterinary clinic, I’m comfortable reading animal behavior, administering medications, handling nervous pets, and responding calmly in stressful situations if needed. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always try to keep their routine as consistent as possible. I pay close attention to feeding instructions, medications, walk schedules, potty routines, and any special care requests so pets feel comfortable and secure in their familiar environment.

Whether they love to sprint across the yard, go on long neighborhood walks, or just curl up on the couch for belly rubs, your dog will get the exact personalized care they need to feel right at home. I am extremely detailed when it comes to following your exact feeding schedules, bathroom routines, and crate preferences.

You can expect frequent photo and video updates throughout their stay so you can see exactly how much fun they are having! I would love to meet you and your pup—reach out today to schedule a Meet & Greet! 🐾 How Pet Care Fits Into My Routine 🐾 Because I manage my schedule carefully, your pets will receive consistent, predictable, and highly attentive care right on time. My weekly routine is designed to seamlessly accommodate the unique needs of both dogs and cats without rushing: • Morning Blocks (7:00 AM – 9:00 AM): I start my day by welcoming any Doggy Daycare guests and running my first round of morning cat drop-in visits. Pups get immediate outdoor bathroom breaks, fresh water, and breakfast according to your exact instructions. For kitties, I handle morning feedings, refresh water bowls, and scoop litters so they start their day fresh. • Mid-Day Breaks (11:00 AM – 2:00 PM): This is my peak window for active dog walking and mid-day drop-in visits. If your dog is staying with me for daycare or boarding, this is our dedicated backyard playtime block. If I am visiting your pet at your home, I arrive during these hours to break up their day with a solid 30-minute neighborhood walk, potty break, and lots of affection. • Evening Blocks (5:00 PM – 7:00 PM): This is wrap-up time! Daycare pups are picked up by their owners, and I conduct my second round of evening cat check-ins for dinner feedings. Boarding guests get their evening meals, followed by a wind-down routine of couch cuddles and a final yard let-out before bedtime. To keep your routine stress-free while you are away, I send a comprehensive daily update between 2:00 PM and 4:00 PM featuring 3 to 4 high-quality photos and videos. This ensures you know exactly how much fun your pet is having without having to check your phone constantly! 🔒 Safety & Care Standards First Whether your pet is staying at my home or I am visiting yours, their safety and your peace of mind are my top priorities. In my home, I provide a completely secure environment with strict supervision, separate feeding stations, and dedicated spaces for rest. If your pup is a runner, rest assured that doors and gates remain locked at all times. In your home, I treat your property with the utmost respect. I follow all security, key, and alarm protocols perfectly, ensuring your home is locked up tight after every visit. For cat drop-ins, litter boxes are scooped daily, and food areas are kept tidy. For dogs, walks are tracked securely via the app so you can see exactly where we traveled!
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.

You guys are amazing. ❤️”

About: I’m a dedicated dog lover with experience caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities. I grew up with both dogs and horses, and our animals were always treated as part of the family. I understand how important it is to find someone you trust to care for your pet while you’re away. I’ve cared for everything from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need a slower, gentler pace. Every dog is different, and I take the time to learn their routines, preferences, and personalities to make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. At home, I have two Australian Cattle Dogs, Sydney (4) and Roo (2), both rescues. They’re active, social, and always happy to welcome new companions. Before them, I raised my dog Cooper from 7 weeks old through 14 wonderful years. I also regularly provide in-home dog sitting for friends and family, with stays ranging from a few days to several weeks. I work from home which provides me plenty of time to keep an eye on your pup and let them out for potty breaks. I also try to work in some play time during the day where I can. My dogs insist the ball is thrown for them a lot! I feed my my own dogs around 6:30/7am and 3:30/4pm daily. I have a nice big yard with a privacy fence and 2 well socialized, friendly and playful dogs. I have good size kitchen and living room areas that can be gated off the pups need some quiet time to themselves.
“Great sitters, nice family. Our dogs had a great time there and immediately fell asleep when they got home after all the play time. Will be booking again with Liana and Dan in the future.”
“Kami is amazing. Her care and attention to Maya was a great assurance while I was on vacation. Kami kept me updated with pictures and messages throughout the week. I got to see Maya having an awesome time at Kami’s.”
“Kirsten was so patient with me...she cared for my senior dog over a long holiday weekend, with storms. Emma felt safe while spending time in her family and enjoyed the big fenced yard. Emma was allowed to sleep in the bedrooms at night. Kirsten sent pictures daily so I cld be reassured Emma was doing well. I wld highly recommend Kirsten.”
“Brittany was a great fit for our pup. She was communicative throughout the booking and sorting process, had a good space for him to stay, and really welcomed him into her family while we were gone. Thank you!”
“Elizabeth and her family were great. She made sure to help Diesel get around the house since he is a senior dog and I received plenty of pictures so I could make sure he was settling in ok.”
“We planned a very spontaneous 5 day trip to warm weather and found Mike on rover. We met with him and felt really good about our interaction and his interaction with our pup. Georgee is just 5 months old so I was a little concerned about leaving her but I had absolutely nothing to be concerned about! Mike sent us updates, photos and videos daily. Georgee got to socialize with other dogs which was awesome! I felt comforted knowing our little Georgee was being so well taken care of. We will definitely be using Mike in the future! Highly recommend!”
“Our dog looked happy and well-loved in every photo and video. We received lots of updates and that was really nice. The yard is large and ready for dog playtime. We would definitely use David and Nicole again.”
“Tobi had such a great day with Brenda, her little boy, and their two dogs. Brenda is so kind and easy going. We’re taking Tobi back for another day of fun soon!”
