Personalized care for your dog or cat - Willmar

“Great setting, where your dogs can experience nature and wildlife. Monica loves dogs and goes the extra mile, came and picked up our dog as we were running out of time trying to get things done to leave town.”

Annette R.

“Kay did a wonderful job and Ernie seemed to really enjoy her. Really liked the first time meet and greet. Got to see where he is staying, house and fenced in backyard were perfect. Ernie was happy to come back home like always, but would definately go with Kay again.”

Jason F.

“I was nervous about leaving our 2.5 year old Aussie because she has never been boarded before. Abby was responsive and took lots of pictures for me which really helped ease my anxiety. Luna seemed happy and well taken care of. I will use her again if a need comes up.”

We have a large, fenced in backyard for your fur babies to roam and play. Plenty of pet beds for them to sleep, or in a kennel if your prefer (must drop off own kennel).

“Jessica was so wonderful with our little Snarla. Jessica sent updates as requested. We will definitely call her the next time we need a sitter. Thanks again for everything Jessica! Kitty, Mike, and Snarla.”

About: Hello! My name is Autumn and I have tons of experience with many breeds and species! I grew up on hobby farm taking care of pigs, chickens, pheasants, etc. I have also cared for all of our family pets growing up. I currently live with my German Shorthair Pointer mix, Eddie and my Mini Dachshund Skippy! My boyfriend and I have 2 Quarter Horses names Steve and Skeeter. I am a huge animal lover and would love to help love your pet as well! I am a currently a full time health care worker at the hospital so I work weird hours and often am available at various times. I recently moved to the area! I have a big yard surrounded woods! Dogs will be leashed at all times! I know first hand how nerve wracking the safety of an animal can be so trust that I have your pets best interest always.

About: I’ve taken care of cats and dogs of every kind since I was 9. Friends, family, neighbors have relied on me to watch, bathe and feed theirs pets. I’m currently not working so I am home all day everyday. I will be starting college soon but it will be online and I can do it from home. I have a friendly dog who can keep your animals company. I also have 2 cats who like dogs and cats. I can always put the cats in their cat room if your dog doesn’t like cats.

“Linda was awesome! We got stuck out of town due to weather, and she was so accommodating and took care of our kitties for another day. Our kitties were happy and loved while we were gone!”

Clare K.

“Kristina really provides exceptional care for my 2 dogs! One of my dogs is blind and the other is a puppy. It is obvious that she truly loves dogs gives them special attention. She is kind and meets their individual needs. I am so happy to have met her personally on a meet and greet. Looking forward to more bookings in the future!”

About: Oh my gosh, where to even begin... :) I started and built, Girl Meets Dog Pet Care Services - Chicago, from 2000, through 2018 (I’m relatively new to doing this in the Rover route, so most of my reviews are posted on other sites), when I became too ill with Lyme Disease, and needed to move back to my hometown to be closer to my family until I became well enough to get back on my feet. Now, I have little home in Spicer, MN, with a big deck and a fenced in yard. I work from home (fashion reseller) so it's me and my big sweet Ni'ta Girl, a 9 year old 100 lbs. of Great Pyrenees sweetness), little Henry (dog loving little 4 year old Bichon-Shih Tzu), hanging around here all the time, so we've decided it's time some other sweet kids get to come soak up this perfect dog loving life with us! I so miss having a house filled with 'nieces and nephews' for me to dote on and spoil rotten, so, if your kid deserves to be treated like like true children (or even better than that, in my book ;)), then this is where they belong. I had clients that called it 'going to camp' when they were coming to stay with us (it's just me, and my fur kids here. Note: due to Nita’s senior age, we don’t take any ‘high energy’ doggos at this time, but all others are welcome!). Since I work from home, I am home with my dogs and kitty 95% of the time, so I am able to provide all the love and company to visitor kids they could possibly want. I do daily walks and have a fenced in yard. They own the place. I just live here and dote on them, basically. :) I am almost always here (at most I'm gone for a 4 hour stretch 2-3 times a week).

“Katie did an amazing job with our girl. We have a cat who hates everyone but us, and Katie got her to warm up and accept some pets and play time while we were gone. She was attentive, professional, kind, and communicated well. I can’t wait to have her come watch Stella the next time we leave.”

“Heather was great!!!! She contacted me with problems and sent pictures. She took amazing care of our kitties while we were away. She made a stressful weekend away for us a little easier. We will definitely book her again!!!”

Kim J.

“Lindsey was awesome!! I hired her to take care of my 5 week old kittens + one adult cat for the weekend, and I’m so glad I did! She was punctual on their feeding times, administered oral meds, and was very communicative when I reached out — and even when I didn’t. Definitely recommend!”

“Monica did well with dog sitting 2 dogs of ours. I had a family memorial to attend to in Minnesota. I live in Iowa. It was great to use Rover to find someone in Minnesota to watch our dogs while we had to attend for this. Monica asked questions before we came to MN, about one dog’s diet and health issues. One dog had pancreatitis in the past and we had to be careful what she can eat. Monica was very knowledgeable about those issues, and that was reassuring to me. She sent a few pictures of the dogs activities, kept up to date about food, water intake, potty business and nap times to us. Sent us Rover cards on those details! If you need a sitter from Rover in Minnesota, check her out! 🙂🐾”

“Abby did a great job taking the time to understand Maple’s needs. She responds super fast and sends plenty of updates throughout the day. I will definitely be using her often for Maple. She slept on the way home from having fun!”

About: Already when I was 10 years old I had my first foster dog in the neighborhood . The owner went to work all day and so I went after school to her house and picked up Anuschka to go for a walk. We spent the whole day together and I always brought her home when the owner was back from work. For all trips beyond that I charge 50 cents per mile. For Meet and Greets in the owners home I’m charge 50 cents per mile. Your dog /cat is in good hands. I will take good care of your pet. Read my reviews for more information about me. Thank you!

About: I have walked, cleaned kennels, bathed my parents dog after he rolled in... well, 'something'... but he was very stinky and now clean and much better smelling! Have plenty of experience with kittens and cats! As well as animals with disabilities. I was recently laid off from my job so I have nothing to do but care for any and all pets 24/7 because I have disabled cats that need help every day. I have a nice big yard for the dogs to run/play and such. As for cats I have a poarch area that is enclosed so if they dont get along with other cats they will have their own space away to be as comfortable as they can be.

About: I can provide a safe quiet home for your pet to visit when you’re away. I work from home and spend the days with our almost 8 year old boxer mix, Aggie. We love taking walks to the park near our home and we have a small fenced in back yard with a privacy fence. Aggie gets along with almost every dog and will sometimes play. She can be pretty vocal when she plays but is otherwise super quiet. She’s a great role model for younger dogs :) I work from home so I am usually home with the pets for most of the day. We take daily walks when the weather is good. We have a large dog crate if your dog needs. Our yard is fenced in and dogs wouldn’t usually be home alone for more than a few hours.

I genuinely enjoy spending time walking and playing with all types of pets. I am committed to providing reliable and dedicated care for your pets, anytime and anywhere you need me. As a full-time pet sitter, I’m just one message away, ready to meet your needs. Your pet’s well-being is my top priority. I ensure they are well-fed, hydrated, and never miss a potty break. Daily walks and engaging playtime are always part of the care I provide. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily and weekly routine, as it aligns with my passion for animals and my flexible schedule. Whether it's for my own pets or those I care for as a sitter, I dedicate specific times each day to feeding, walking, and playing with them. My focus is on providing loving, personalized care that meets each pet’s unique needs. I maintain the pet’s routine, following specific instructions for feeding, medication, and exercise.
