“Jennifer took wonderful care of my dog while I was away, and I really appreciated how attentive and communicative she was throughout the stay. She sent daily updates, checked in about any concerns, and was very thoughtful when my dog didn’t want to eat the first day — which is normal for her in new environments. I also appreciated the time she took to have us come over beforehand so we could meet her and her dogs and make sure it was a good fit. She was responsive, caring, and clearly experienced with dogs. I felt very comfortable leaving my dog with her and would absolutely recommend her to others.”
“Drew was very responsive. He also was very understanding about a new allergy complaint for my dog which required Benadryl and ointments, which he was gracious enough to administer during her stay. Would definitely recommend!”
“Wow!!!! Honestly I am extremely thankful for this amazing family that took care of my scared shy dog! They constantly sent pictures and videos with updates! They made my dog feel right at home. I would definitely recommend them. Your dog will be in the best hands”
“Erin, Brandon, and kids took such good care of Poppy. They kept in close communication, and even sent pictures! Poppy was well loved and cared for while with them and came home a happy dog! Thank you!”
“David was great to work with and we felt very comfortable leaving our pup in his hands. He consistently communicated with us providing updates which gave us peace of mind that Bo was in good company & care.”
“Michelle was fantastic with Juniper. Juniper is a super nervous dog and Michelle was very patient with her. Gave me plenty of updates knowing how nervous I was. Will definitely book with her in the future!”
“Jasmine was awesome! I got pictures and regular updates:) you can tell that jasmine cares about your pet, I wasn’t worried about Alfie at all well he was in her care!”
“Linda is amazing. She sent us pics and videos every day. Tango had a back yard and a couple of friends to play with. He was never left alone or put in a kernel. Linda was very thoughtful to invite us over for meet and greet before we left him for a week. Will definitely work with her again!”
“Our dogs have the best time with Holly and Jeremy and family - so much fun that they never want to leave! Holly and Jeremy are great about sending photo updates and have been flexible when we have had travel delays. They are always our top choice to watch our dogs when we are out of town!”
“Miranda and her home have been an incredible experience and home away from home for our dog. We are grateful for her special care and attention. Her communication is top notch!!”
“Ashley was so accommodating by taking Piper with only 24 hr notice. Awesome communication and met us at the door as we walked up to her house at drop off. Piper was spoiled during the day with walks and lots of love. We were updated with pictures and videos during the day. Highly recommend Ashley and we will be contacting her when our next appointment is scheduled at Mayo Clinic.”
“An amazing person to take your pets to, very attentive and caring and even got me a little refund when I didn’t book correctly my first time! Definitely recommend and will be booking Mathew & Angela again.”

“Lindsey was absolutely wonderful! She visited us before our trip to meet our cats and go over their routine, and we were immediately impressed by her friendly and caring nature. Both of our cats warmed up to her right away—even our more reserved one, which says a lot! When we returned home, the cats were happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. We’re so grateful to Lindsey and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive pet sitter!”
“We’ve worked with Britteny for the past two years and she’s been great. Our cats are comfortable with her, and I always feel at ease leaving them in her care when we’re away. She’s also administered oral steroids to our asthmatic cat, which has been a big help. Reliable, kind, and good with cats. Highly recommend!”
“Anne did a great job with my mom’s cat (Nevaeh)! She went above & beyond to care for Nevaeh while my mom was in the hospital. Anne is a true animal lover which shows in the care she provides.”
About: I have 5+ years of experience caring for cats at a veterinary clinic. I also have experience taking care of my cousins' 3 cats while they are away. Medications are no problem! My dog is diabetic, so I know how to administer insulin shots if needed.
“This was the first time going on vacation since I got my two cats. I was very nervous about leaving them, but Mara was wonderful. She listened and answered my questions. She took great care of my cats and sent me pictures with updates. I would highly recommend her.”
About: My husband and I have had dogs all of our lives! We recently lost our 140 lb. Bouvier des Flandres (Oscar) and our kids are missing having a pet! We are currently pet-less, non-smoking, clean home, looking to love a dog for the weekend or during the summer when we are off. We have a huge yard (2 acres) and can keep your pet on a leash or nearby while we play outside! We love walks and snuggles! We prefer non-shedding breeds. No aggressive dogs. We are currently working/at school - so weekends are it. Once school is out (June-August) we have all summer to watch your pup! We are also an active family, so if you need your dog walked, we can do it! We will keep a close eye on your pup. Our kids are super gentle and are the sweetest kids. Your dog will be our priority if they are here! We want you and your pet to feel at home. We have been dog lovers all of our lives and we used Rover with our last dog and know you want a trusting home - we get it! We don't currently have any other animals and will only take 1 dog at a time (unless from the same family).
“This was our first time using Rover. Anita was very easy to work with. We asked for drop in visits while we were on vacation. Anita came to our house to meet in person before the start of the Rover services to get acquainted with the space and our request for our pets. While away, she posted pictures of our cats so we could know that they’re OK. It is a relief to be able to trust someone who comes to your house while away and gives good care to your furry loved ones. I look forward to working with Anita in the future.”
About: Most of my experience from taking care of cats has come through adopting them as family pets. Like dogs, I have had a cat around the house my entire life. Currently I have one male cat named Lubrae. He is an absolute sweetheart! Though my experience with cats is not as much as it is with dogs, I still love to work with cats! I can do any routine cleaning like cleaning the litter box that is needed too.
About: I have always had a passion and love for animals ever since I was little. I have experience caring for many different animals such as dogs, cats, rabbits, chinchillas, hamsters, gerbils, rats, ferrets, birds, lizards, frogs, and fish. I used to volunteer at an animal shelter and even ran a summer camp there about animal health and safety for children. I have experience in administering medications and topical treatments in different animals. I also have experience in dogs with anxiety. Leaving your pet in someone's care can be nerve racking, but I understand that your pet is family. I have a 15 Ib Havapoo male (neutered) dog that will keep your furry friend company. I work throughout the week but I am home all day Saturday and Sunday to watch your furry friends. I am also available weekday mornings until around noon so I can make accomodations if needed. I have a large fenced in yard for your dog to run around in. Please be aware that the fence is 2.6 ft tall (about waist height). The height isn't a problem for smaller dogs. My dog is allowed on the furniture and sleeps in my bed with me at night.
“Mikaela was amazing! She sent me updates and pictures of the kids every time she checked in on them! Leaving the kiddos for vacation for tough but it really calmed my anxiety knowing that Mikaela was watching the kids for us. We will for sure, use Mikaela’s services in the future!”
“Anna was a great pet sitter! She was also incredibly flexible, I accidentally booked the wrong dates (I put May instead of April), and she kindly accommodated the change without any issues. Most importantly, she got along really well with my cat, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. I would definitely recommend her!”
About: I’ve take care of my aunts cats in the past and had a cat of my own and learned lots along the way. I love cats, I love that they love their space but also can be needy.

“Matt and Angela took great care of my dog Osi! Osi and their dog, Alfie, had so much fun together. Osi is definitely looking forward to his next play date. Highly recommend Matt and Angela!”
“Pennie Rose had a perfect day with Jess and her family. Jess sent pictures and updates while Pennie played and settled in on Jess’s husband’s lap. 😊. She came home very happy and stress free! It’s so nice to go away and know your pet is also having a fun experience! This sitter is perfect 10!”
“Rhea was so sweet & accommodating when our drop off time changed. Her communication was really wonderful- she kept me posted on how Luna was doing during her stay & responded quickly. Thanks so much!”
“Thank you so much for your care for Autumn! We couldn't be happier. It's clear that you genuinely enjoy the dogs you watch and it means so much to know our fur baby was well cared for. We will definitely ask again! 💜😊”
“Jennifer gave Roxie breakfast and dinner every day. I think my dog liked to play with kids and other dogs. They have a big yard, so she enjoyed in the yard. I think she had a good time there. I would like to use that dog care when we go to Rochester. Thank you very much!!”
About: I work from home. I have a small backyard and a park nearby with a walking path. I have 3 children who are good around pets. We have one dog of our own who is a 70lb, 12 year old female. My experience comes from my own pets and checking on friend’s pets while they are away. I am available in the mornings before work, can be flexible about lunch and breaks to leave and check on pets and end my work day at 5 (Mon-Fri). If I go into work, it is often on a Wednesday and my parents come check on my dog while I am away for the day. My home: I have a fenced yard, 1 older dog, and gates in the house to keep the dogs on the main floor. I do not have a crate or dog toys. My dog prefers long walks, scratches and a good nap. My dog is a large poodle breed.
About: Relocated here from Iowa. Enjoy working with different dogs. Pet lover. I completed 6 months of Veterinarian Assistant classes online. Life happened and I had to take a pause. But I am thinking about going back and finish obtaining my associates degree in the field. So whether it be house sitting with the animals or simply doing some walking or activities, I don't mind and will enjoy my time with them. Its something I enjoy as one of my hobbies. I am available during the week days. Every other weekend I work night shift at this time. I enjoy play time with pets because they too have different personalities. Love Dogs. We cuddle mostly and play. Take walks outside. Play fetch with their toys. It's cool to go to the backyard and be socialable with nature. I think it helps with sensory awareness.
About: I have been a pet sitter for many years. Also, I have always had a dog and cat of my own since I was a young child. I will treat your pet as if it was my own. I feel it's important that animals get exercise and will take your dog for walks and make sure they are comfortable and happy. Your pet will get lots of love in my home!! I work from home and can attend to them anytime. I will walk them as I do for my own dogs. They will get to play outside in a large wooded area. I live out in the country on 8 acres. You pet will be in paradise! Your pet will sleep in my home. My other dogs are friendly. They are used to having other dogs stay with us. I can also care for your pet in your home.
About: I require any visiting pets to be vaccinated and on flea preventitive! I have trained many kinds of dogs for many different things! I have a service dog that I trained Bella! I also have a cat that is trained to sit, spin, and jump! I have experience with diabetic animals and with most animals in general! I am educated on animal CPR and heimlich. I'm happiest when I'm spending time with 6 dogs at a time lol it's so much fun! I don't have space to take more than one large dog or 2 small dogs at a time but someday I will! I am working on getting fencing for my yard! I only let 1 dog out at a time. I follow owners feeding schedule. I chart every feeding, drink of water that i see, and every potty break. I send updates daily and am well educated on how to calm an anxious dog!
“Megan was phenomenal from start to finish. Communication was ultra clear and I know our puppy Micaiah was very well taken care of. She thoroughly enjoyed the company of her 9-month-old black lab. We will definitely be hitting up Megan in the future. Highly recommend!”
“Andria's family and dog are all very friendly towards my puppy. Nori had a blast there. He got home and fell asleep within 30 minutes, so I didn't have to spend a lot of time playing with him in the evening:) Andria also captured a few great photos of Nori running in the snow with his new friend. Love the photos!”
About: I have been around animals and dogs my whole life. I recently lost my 17 yr old baby girl and I miss the companionship but not quite ready for a new pup! I am responding and will make sure your baby gets top notch care! I work real close to home so I am able to pop by when I have a break and check in on the babies! I am usually home every night. I care for your babies just as I would mine.. animals are the bestest of friends and deserve the best of the best. Lots of love and attention will be given.
About: I’ve been taking care of my family's and friend’s dogs for about 5 years now and would love the chance to care for more! I will care for your fur babies like they were my own! ❤️🐾 I’m currently a stay at home mom. All my kids are in school, so my 3 year old yellow lab is my only child home during the day! I have plenty of time to give lots of love and attention to your dogs. I have a fenced in backyard and a friendly yellow lab who loves to play with other dogs. I enjoy going on walks and playing outside with dogs but also love to snuggle on the couch with them too!

“Lindsey was the best dog-walker we could ask for... We have a spirited labrador retriever, and she handled him beautifully, safely and timely. I always received pictures, video and a status report with every walk. I would recommend Lindsey to anyone seeking a reliable dog walker.”
“I appreciate Scott's care for our pup, communication, and availability when we needed him on short notice. Hucklebear liked Scott and seemed very comfortable with him. Thanks, Scott!”

About: We (Sean and myself) welcome both dogs and cats! Many years of experience between the two of us. Love taking care of pets and just want them to have a safe and loving environment. We have two kids who are 8 and 4 and they love all animals. I work full time as a nurse but all shifts are at home. I am off on the weekends. My significant other, Sean, stays at home as well and we care for the animals together. I am there to walk and play with them. Feed and water them when they need it. Can take for frequent potty breaks. Also just want them to have fun!
“Hound has been great with our dogs and they seem relaxed and happy when we get home. Manages the needs of our very old husky and young border collie mix very well so they both get the attention and exercise they need.”
“Devon has always taken great care of our dog, and she has been flexible with last minute schedule changes. She has boarded our dog in her house and given regular walks. Highly recommend!”
“Destinee was responsive and took great care of Nemo and the house while we were out of town! Our dog loves to play with Destinee. We appreciated the updates she gave us during her stay. Would highly recommend her services.”
About: I have always been around animals and have had pets my entire life, including cats, dogs, and even birds. I really enjoy taking care of all animals and providing excellent service. My family has a bird, two shih tzus, and a cat. I have frequently been around bigger breeds as well so I am comfortable with any-sized pet. I have experience walking other people's dogs and pet sitting for family and family friends. I am busy this summer preparing for college in the fall, but I wanted something that I care about to fill some of my free time. I am also saving up for college expenses. I would love to make pet sitting/walking a major part of my life. I would be able to watch pets at the owners' home. I will be able to watch them overnight, and or come over to check on them as well as taking walks and playing with them.
About: Since the young age of 10 I was caring for pets all around my neighborhood. I've always adored animals and have two dogs of my own, one calm and one who requires lots of exercise, so I've got a wide range of pups in used to! I'm a reliable dog walker, willing to play, bathe, love and actually care about your pets the way you do. Im working part time right now which means i've got ample time to play with your pets! Im free almost any day of the week for boarding and walking up until August 10th in the evenings! Im willing to accommodate any living situation, no fence? No problem! I've got a leash and two legs. My pups get into everything if left alone so I'll be sure to always be present for anything your animal needs, and any extra support they may need.
About: Hi Im daysha. Growing up I've always had pets growing up from when I was on a farm to when we moved to the citys. I've always had love and care for pets and always wanna provide a safe and protected space for them. I grew up with 3 bunnies 5 dogs and three cats in my life time. I have such a wonderful life to me allowing me to understand people and pets. I'm really open minded and full of communication fun and bubble. Just looking for people I can help out:) I am currently working at the red room down town in Rochester Minnesota. I tend to work from. 5-8 on weekdays and weekends 5-10 but with hosting I tend to get cutt early if it's slow. Im always open to working around other people scheduling but would love a understandment of my schedule too Sadly I do live in a small apartment that doesn't allow me to have pets in and out unless there my own but I am very trustworthy and am very responsible and respectful of other people homes. I was taught growing up to never disrespect other folks homes . I will always follow by the rules and always communicate when something is going on or if I have any questions. I'm here to protect And provide a safe space and comfort for u and your pet
About: While I didn’t grow up with dogs I’ve made up for it in my adult years! I’ve dog-sit for family, friends, and neighbors. I also walked several dogs before Rover was a thing :) I will take the time to get to know your dogs personality, schedule, and any other needs. I am comfortable giving medication, if needed, as I had two years experience with my dog Zeke. I look forward to meeting your fur baby! :) I currently work 8-5 pm pm in Oncology at Mayo Clinic. I work 3-4 days a week, with a couple work from home days (no weekends or holidays). I have a large townhouse (almost 1900 sq feet) with plenty of outside space to play and walk. While the yard isn’t fenced I live a hop skip and a jump to the walking path around Cascade Lake. Your dog would also have free rein of my townhome. Depending on your dogs age, needs, level of potty training, and demeanor he/she could have free rein of my home. I promise to treat your dog like my own, meaning a lot of attention, snuggles (if that’s their thing), butt scratches, treats, play time, & exercise. I will also communicate as little or much as you want, including updates on how they are doing along with pictures/videos.
About: I have cared for many dogs over the years. I love taking our Mokes to meet other dogs and exercise areas to meet new pups! I am also comfortable administering medications, and have been a nurse for many years. I love taking our dog everywhere I go and your dog would be treated, just like my own! Throwing a ball and long walks are what every dog loves, so let me help you with your busy schedule! I’m currently working full time during the day, most weekdays. I am available evenings, on the weekends and most all holidays! I can be very flexible with last minute needs. I have one very friendly chocolate lab, that loves to have new playmates! I can also easily crate your pup, if that’s what you prefer. We love to take walks to the nearby park and play fetch. I also like to watch animals in their own environment if that is where they are most comfortable!
About: I’ve had five different breeds of dogs, from Great Danes to Shih Tzu. From young to old. I’m very easy-going with dogs. But I also know how to set boundaries. I work outside of the home three days a week. Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. I’m generally around Tuesdays, Thursdays, and on weekends. I’m home most evenings. I have a good-sized fenced in yard and a walkable neighborhood. I have two of my own dogs. My kids love animals and are good with them.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs & cats for 14 years and have done Rover for over two years with many repeat clients. I had to make a new account. Family members have relied on me to watch over their fur babies, take them on walks and give oral medication. I have had my own dog & cat. I’ve have experience with puppies, senior dogs, kittens & senior cats. I’m currently working full time on weekdays but weekends are open for me. I can do overnight on weekends and drop ins and walks. I always make sure we set up and introduction with your dog and/or cat so they can get comfortable with me. We never leave the house without a leash!! Your dog will always be leashes when going outside. I won’t let your dogs interact with other dogs (due to chance of injury to your fur baby) if you do want me to have your dogs interact with other dogs let me know and I can do that.
About: I give pawsitive support for your dog while you are away from home. I have been around many dogs in my lifetime. I truly enjoy dogs, playing with and working with them. I have a 3 year old Blue Healer/Rottweiler mix, named Roman. I have been training him since his adoption, over 2 years ago. He will ring a bell to go outside and on command touch his nose to my hand and much more. I will care for your dog as though he/she is my own. With love and praise. I am currently open to a wide variety of days and times to let out and play with your pup. I take your pets care seriously, all while giving loving care. Whether I come by to walk your dog, let it out or stay for a play date. I will be respectful of your pet and your property.
About: I have cared for dogs and cats for most of my life and grew up in a home where animals were always part of the family. Throughout my childhood, we always had both a dog and a cat, which gave me the opportunity to understand and support pets through all stages of their lives. Being raised around animals has brought me so much joy, and I truly love spending time with them, whether that’s playing, going for walks, or simply giving them attention and affection. In addition, I have three years of experience walking dogs, which has helped me develop patience, responsibility, and a strong understanding of different temperaments and needs. If you choose me to care for your pet, I promise to treat them with the same love and attention I would give my own, and to care for them to the very best of my abilities. I'm currently a student and work a part-time job; however, I usually have 2-hour gaps in my day. This is to accommodate time to take your pet out to potty, go for walks, or just have some playtime. Then after 3 pm I am free during the evenings. I’m unable to host pets in my own home; however, I will treat your home with the utmost respect and ensure your pet receives the same love, care, and attention I would give my own.

“I wished we had more time to talk about how our 2 dogs were for her but they were too excited. This is our first time going out of state for a week and having to put them in a kennel/Rover. That’s why I chose Rover because of the options to get pictures and videos while I was gone. Would definitely go to Stacy again!”
