“Elizabeth was wonderful and very accommodating! If we ever are in Red Wing and need boarding we will definitely call Elizabeth! She is a great communicator and sent pictures of our Buster and Teddy!!”
“Karen and family took amazing care of our giant Newfoundland Nora. Spoiled her during her stay which was great to see. Pictures and updates daily showed how good of a time she had. Thank you for taking care of our baby.”
“Georgie did a fantastic job caring for my two pups while my husband and I had our wedding in Stillwater! She is very sweet and treated our dogs like her own. We got updates and pictures everyday, and she was very responsive. I would definitely recommend trusting Georige to care for your pets. 🩷”
“Dylan and Whitney’s care of Dusty was phenomenal. They were able to take Dusty in on short notice and treated him so well. In addition, the communication and the speed of communication was always great and fast. Dylan sent us pics to help us while we were missing him. They were always a highlight of our day. We HIGHLY recommend Dylan!”
“Jennifer was so sweet, caring, and accommodating to our pup. I loved getting pictures and messages throughout his stay, which really put my mind at ease. I truly appreciate her taking in a puppy and being so flexible with our schedule tweaks. We'll definitely book again.”
“John and Teri were the best!! Truly, we couldn’t have imagined better. We knew immediately at the meet and greet that our dog would be comfortable and well cared for, and the pictures and video they sent showed we were exactly right. He was having a blast and feeling right at home! We love that they really enjoy his company and care about him. He will be going back in a couple weeks and we are so grateful to know we don’t need to worry about him when we are out of town. Thank you so much, John and Teri!!”
“Stacy always takes such good care of Bonnie. We never have to worry and get photo updates throughout our trip of how she is doing. Would recommend to anyone with a dog. We will definitely book with Stacy in the future!”
“This was our first time using Tricia's services. Great communication and she was very accommodating to let us come to the house and check it out before we left our dog there for the weekend. Would definitely use again!”
“Our dog had an awesome stay with Jazmin & Mary. Communication was thorough with daily updates and pictures and even a written report when we picked our dog up. We highly recommend using Jazmin & Mary if you want to be assured that your dog is well taken care of!”
“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.”
“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 dogs had a great time at Alisha's. We went camping for a weekend, which was our first time leaving them at a sitter's house since we got them. We felt very assured that they were in good hands. They were pooped when we picked them up and slept all day once we got home. Doesn't happen often so that's how we knew they got a lot of playing in that weekend!”
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.
“Serah was an amazing person to have as our little Lita’s foster momma while we had an extended vacation. She kept us in the loop with texts and pictures. It was so reassuring to have our pup taken care of and loved as her own. Lita loved the fenced in yard and having Riley, Serah’s dog, as her playmate. We highly recommend Serah. We will definitely choose her again as our first choice in dog sitters.”
“Our experience with this wonderful family was just that, wonderful! The entire family helped care for Bailey just like she was their own. Lots of snuggles, love & attentive care. Our family had just lost our dear Betsy (our older blue heeler). We had to let her go in January of this year due to illness & age. It was very clear that Bailey was missing her. So when she met some new friends like these great people, she was in heaven. Along with variety of 4 legged friends. We received lots of updates and pics on our vacation and that really put our minds at ease. I don’t think Bailey wanted to leave when we came to pick her up!😁 We feel blessed to have found this family and will definitely be booking again! Thank you ♥️”
“Alexander cared for my dog exceptionally well. I received photos and videos during the stay and it looked like my dog was having lots of fun. I highly recommend Alexander and will rebook with him for future stays!”

“Kayla was very loving and attentive to Ivan. Followed his eating and scooping routine and gave him abundant belly rubs. I highly recommend her to anyone needing pet care.”
“Madysen was great! She cared for our elder cat who needs medication daily. She sent us updates and photos daily and made us feel much more comfortable leaving our baby home alone.”
“Shylina did a great job checking in on my cat while we were on vacation for 2 weeks. Lucy was well cared for which provided peace of mind so we could be on vacation.”
About: Hey all! My name is Mylissa and I am located in Red Wing, MN. I’m back on this app after a hiatus as my job had become more flexible! I have grown up around dogs of all sizes (from St. Bernards to Mini Yorkies), and love to give attention to all. I love walking, so why not do it with a dog!? I also am a dog poop baggie carrier and will clean up after your dog. I have volunteered with humane societys and local shelters, I have attended 2 hour dog walking safety and procedures classes for four years, and would walk shelter dogs biweekly in college. Unfortunately my life currently doesn’t have the time a dog deserves, so this is a great way to spend time with dogs and help out their owners. I currently do have three cats, a 5 year old and two 3 year olds adopted from humane society! I love furbabies of all kinds and would love to spend time with your kitty as well. Any questions please do ask! I currently work from home and am able to cater my schedule around walks if needed (with notice)! I am able to work from your home as well if house sitting as long as there is WiFi/excellent cellular data for hotspotting. I can crate dogs, leash/harness them, give medication, clean up house accidents, or give hard/soft/homemade food. If there is ever a situation I am not comfortable I will immediately reach out, just ask!
“Thank you Elizabeth for taking great care of our Jocko (about 17 years old). You were able to carry out his routines in/outside the house very well. So when we returned, I think he was a happy camper during our 20 day away vacation. This was the first time he would be left alone (without the usual many family members to overlap with care), so this local care giving plan with Rover.com worked out very well. I was reassured with photos and texts of visits as requested and Elizabeth provided the personal care for Jocko a senior cat and he is a happy cat.”
About: I love my fur babies, and I can’t wait to meet yours! My goal is for my clients to have peace of mind while they’re away, and know their pets are being well taken care of by a trustworthy person. Being away from our fur babies is hard—I get it! Be prepared to get lots of cute photos of your animals and updates during their time with me. I work Monday through Friday until 4:30pm so I can provide evening care during the week, and I am available all hours on the weekends. I am well versed in how to take care of both dogs and cats, having 2 cats of my own. I will make sure I provide the utmost care in your home and provide a safe and calming space for your babes.
About: Hi there! My name is Savannah, and I recently moved to the area! I grew up around dogs/cats of all kinds my whole life and have previous experience with dog sitting for friends while they were away on trips. I’ve also volunteered at my local animal shelter, where I spent time caring for and walking both dogs and cats. You don’t need to worry about traveling, as I have my own vehicle to travel. Because I work part time at a clinic, I’m available only afternoons and nights during the week. However, I'm available all day during the weekends. If you need a sitter, I would be unavailable to take them to my own house, but can stop in/stay at your place. Caring for an pet greatly depends on the pet themselves and the owner's desires. I love to play and be active with the animals if allowed. If a pet is older and doesn't like to be active for long, I enjoy just spending the quality time so they aren't lonely while their owner is away. I also always check in with the client about their pet's basic needs, such as how much they are fed and how often, how often they are let out, if there is any needs for any disabilities, etc.
“Samantha and her kids took great care of my kitten while I was getting my new apartment ready. She and the kids read her bedtime stories and give her proper care with her eyedrops and even helped potty train her! She was the perfect pet sitter and loved my kitty as if it was her own. She will treat your pet like royalty while under her care!”
About: I've taken care of all my friends and family's pets. Everyone relies on me to make sure proper care of their animals are taken. I go above and beyond of what is asked. I am available any day Monday through Sunday between the hours of 7am to 9pm. However,, I am more than flexible for certain circumstances though. I offer everything between taking the pets for walks, bringing them outside, playing with them, feeding and providing them water. I can even bathe them and train them if necessary.
About: I have cared for animals of many kinds since I was young and have experience with parrots, dogs, cats, and reptiles. Friends and family frequently rely on me to care for their pets while they are away. I am currently studying to become a veterinary technician, which helps me provide knowledgeable and attentive care for every pet. My schedule is flexible, allowing me to provide consistent care and attention for pets. I am available most weekends and weekday afternoons, ensuring your pet gets regular exercise, playtime, and supervision. I provide safety, trust & environment by making sure that your pet is safe in my care, I will make sure they are never off leash when they go outside, and always confined when I leave! Your pet will always be in safe hands!
About: I’m a new cat mom. I usually always just had dogs, but I couldn’t say NO to my two kitties. Mama Kiki was found pregnant in a dumpster behind a restaurant!!!!! I had to bring her home and keep one of her babies. They are so sweet and crazy rascals. I have no problems taking care of older cats and kitties.
“5 stars! Feels weird to rate a person on a star system, but….. I absolutely would recommend Annika. Very communicative, thorough and timely. Came home to a happy well cared for pet. 100 percent will book again next time I’m away.”
About: I have had dogs my entire life and have love for all animals. I have also worked with rescue groups and almost all of my pets have come from rescue situations. I am currently working part time and therefore have plenty of time to care for your pets. I have grown up with animals my entire life. At this time I am not offering sitting at our home as we are having work done to our home but hope to in the near future
About: I am a Retired Veterinary Technician. I have owned cats for 30 years. I can care for those with special needs. I have a large fenced in yard for those that like a bit of outdoor time. I have spacious rooms with large windows if that's what your kitty prefers. A clean and safe environment with lots of attention. I have been trusted to enter my neighbors' homes and care for their furry family members. Whether daily or while you take a much needed vacation.

“We needed doggy day care on short notice while we attended a wedding in the area. Samantha was really helpful and friendly. She took great care of Gigi and sent us a fun picture too!”
“First time at doggy daycare for our 7 yr old Chi mix - both he and our puppy were well cared for and arrived home this evening tired snd happy. Knowing they were safe made our time away worry free! Thank you Stacy for a great experience.”
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.
“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!”
“Absolutely wonderful experience! Karen was so kind and welcoming to our very energetic pup! She has great attention to detail and took the time to truly get to know our dog and his unique personality and needs. Getting updates and pictures of our dog having the time of his life with Karen and her family made us feel so at ease knowing that he was in great, loving hands. We will definitely be reaching out to Karen in the future and our pup can’t wait to go back! ☺️❤️”
“Highly recommend Mike—he was incredibly easy to work with, highly responsive, and flexible. He offered up a meet/greet in advance which was incredibly helpful. My pup Taco was comfortable with him right away—he is definitely a dog lover!”
“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’m a passionate dog lover who’s spent years providing exceptional care to dogs of all breeds and ages. My journey began long before my beloved heart dog, whose companionship deepened my commitment to love, patience, and understanding in caring for furry companions. I believe every dog is unique and deserves to feel safe, cherished, and comfortable while their owners are away. What sets me apart - Heartfelt commitment: My genuine love for dogs drives me to create a nurturing environment where each pet feels at home. I respect the emotional bond between pets and their owners and work to maintain the pet’s comfort in the owner’s absence. - Puppy expertise: I use positive reinforcement to support good behavior, healthy socialization, and plenty of playtime for puppies. - Senior dog care: I provide compassionate, specialized care for senior dogs, from gentle exercise routines to medication administration, ensuring their comfort and wellbeing. - Personalized attention: I learn each dog’s personality, preferences, and routine so I can tailor care—whether it’s walks, playtime, or cuddles—to make their stay enjoyable and stress-free. With a heartfelt approach and commitment to excellence, I guarantee your furry family member will receive the love, attention, safety, and care they deserve while you’re away. As a self-employed entrepreneur, I have the flexibility to seamlessly integrate pet care into my daily and weekly routine. This allows me to dedicate ample time and attention to your furry family during their stay. Whether it's providing companionship, engaging in playtime, or adhering to their feeding and exercise schedules, I ensure that your pet receives the care and love they need. My adaptable schedule means your pet will never feel alone, and I can provide consistent support and companionship throughout their time with me. In my home, your pet's safety and comfort are my top priority. I have a secure, fenced yard where they can play and explore freely. My space is designed to accommodate your furry friend with plenty of room to relax. If you prefer, I can crate your dog for added security, or we can allow them to roam comfortably without a crate during their stay. Rest assured, your pet will feel safe and at home in my care.
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.
“Michelle was amazing! My babies were so happy and had so much fun. She sent pics and videos and updates regularly, and the dogs warmed up to her well (and they’re picky!). I highly recommend Michelle!!!”
About: i’ve always had such a soft spot in my heart for animals, even scaly friends too! I myself have had animals ranging from cats and dogs, to snakes to fish and rats.. and as you can imagine, they all require some very different needs! i ALWAYS make it my goal to care for each individual animal the best i can, after all they deserve it! I’d love to make taking care of your furry friends my main priority! I have open availability during the week and will be home all day with them, wether it’s your home or mine (: I do have 2 dogs of my own, so unfortunately i do not have availability for overnight stays. I always make it my biggest goal to let animals know how loved they are! I am willing to accommodate to you and your pets needs to ensure the safety of me, you, and your pet! My 2 dogs have me wrapped around their pinkies (toes? paws? 🤷🏻♀️) and i’d do anything to make sure they’re happy. I treat every dog in my care like my very own. I understand leaving your dog in the care of somebody else can be nerve-racking, especially if it’s in somebody else’s home. You worry about wether or not your sitter is going to leave them alone during the day, or if your sitter lives on a busy street, or if there’s a chance your dog gets loose.. i understand all of these! A home visit is a must and i’d be happy to show you where your furry friend will be staying, and what a typical day looks like!

We have plenty of room in our home to give your pet a safe/quiet space if needed.

About: Hi, I'm Kay! I am a professional animal caretaker with 12+ years of paid experience. I am a HUGE animal lover. Along with my professional background, I've also cohabitated with and personally cared for dozens of animals throughout my lifetime. I currently live with my leash-trained kitty, Vada, who has travelled all around the USA with me! Some animals I've worked closely with include: dogs, cats, hamsters, degus, rabbits, guinea pigs, fish, turtles, frogs, goats, pigs, cows, turkeys, chickens, ducks, horses, donkeys, sheep, snails, and llamas. While I love ALL animals, I definitely have a special place in my heart for cats and chickens! I am a fast learner and a competent person, so I am confident that with a little guidance, I can appropriately care for pretty much any species! I would love to get more hands-on experience with fish, bunnies, animals with disabilities, and any type of reptile. I plan to have my own animal sanctuary one day, so am always looking to expand on my animal knowledge. <3 I have a fully-enclosed double pet stroller that I would be happy to share with my smaller clients. While I am not a professional cat trainer, I have taught my own two to walk on leashes, so I would be open to working with your felines if that's something that you feel could enrich their lives. Not all cats find it enjoyable! When boarding, your pet will be in my home with me, and/or I have a separate room for visitors that may be more stressed out in a new environment. I work from home, so I am almost always around to supervise. I can walk, play, clean litter boxes, change diapers, bathe, clean cages, administer medication, and/or just provide company for your non-human pals. If you're unsure if I can provide a specific service, don't hesitate to ask. I understand that animals are individuals with different needs and quirks. I am flexible, and can work with the specific needs of your companion animal. :) I recently relocated to Stockton, so I am looking for new, hopefully long-term, clients in the area. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions. Information here is to give general idea of my services/prices, but am flexible! I work from home, and my schedule is very flexible for pet sitting. I am able to work with my clients on whatever best suits their needs. Every animal is an individual with different needs, so I always meet my clients where they're at. I prefer pet sitting within the animals' own homes as I've found most everyone is more at ease in a familiar environment. When boarding in my own home, I ask pet parents to pack all of the essentials from home such as- beds, toys, snacks, crates, puzzle feeders, a shirt that smells like someone they love, etc. I love to take photos and share updates as often as requested, but usually at least once a day.
“My wife and I recently moved to red wing and have used Samantha as our go-to sitter/walker. She has been awesome! She’s punctual, responsive, and affordable. Not to mention great with the dogs! They are always happy to see her. We are very glad to have found Samantha and cannot recommend her enough.”
About: I have two amazing cats currently and grew up with dogs and cats. I have pet sat for my own animals growing up as well as family members. Last year is when I began pet sitting for my neighbor and recently I have done two four day stays with a dog and two cats. I loved spending time with their dog as I can't have one of my own at the apartment that I currently live at. I also love playing with cats, and of course snuggling both kinds of animals (it's the best thing in the world). I currently do college online and am an aspiring small business owner of crochet goods, both of these things I can do from anywhere so longer in home stays are not a problem. I currently am an online college student and an aspiring crochet small business owner, both things, I am able to do from anywhere. I have pretty much no days I can't be with animals besides Tuesday mornings. I aspire to make sure the animals are comfortable and happy at all times. I love brushing them, playing with them, and of course, providing snuggles. I don't personally have a dog, but I grew up with one and always loved giving her walks.
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments since I was 10 years old. Neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and play with their pets, as well as provide companionship when they’re away. I’m attentive to routines, patient with nervous pets, and always prioritize safety, comfort, and love. I treat every pet as if they were my own. I currently work part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility and time to focus on pet care. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, or sitting on weekdays after at varying times depending on my schedule. I enjoy building playtime, walks, feeding, and check-ins into my daily routine so pets get consistent attention, care, and companionship. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I have a spacious yard and a friendly, well-socialized dog who enjoy having company. I carefully supervise all interactions and can separate pets if needed. I’m happy to crate dogs upon request, follow specific routines, administer basic care, and respect all house rules when caring for pets in your or my home.
About: I would love to take care of your fur baby🐶🐾 I truly believe our pets are our family, and they deserve to be treated with patience, love, and attention. I’ve grown up with huskies and understand their energy, intelligence, and big personalities. I had a husky growing up, and now I rescued one of my own — so I’m very used to daily walks, playtime, structure, and staying active. I’m also a foster mom, which has given me experience with dogs of different temperaments, backgrounds, and needs. Caring for foster dogs has taught me patience, adaptability, and how important it is to make every dog feel safe and comfortable. Over the years, I’ve cared for all kinds of dogs — from small Yorkie/Shih Tzus to big Labs. I’m comfortable with different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I also have experience administering medications, including oral medications, eye drops, ear drops, and other basic care needs. You can feel confident knowing your pet is in capable and attentive hands. My goal is to give you peace of mind while you’re away and make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and right at home. 🐾 Pet care fits easily into my routine! I currently work in the service industry, which gives me a fairly flexible schedule. My usual days off are Wednesdays and Thursdays, which allows for extended availability those days. On most other days, I’m available for morning walks and check-ins if you reach out in advance. Since I already have an active routine with my own dog, adding walks and care for your pup fits in perfectly. I’m happy to communicate and coordinate to find times that work best for both of us! 🐾 I treat every pet like they’re part of my family, with care, respect, and plenty of love. My husky has gone through several training courses, so I’m used to teaching commands, helping with training, and teaching new tricks when needed. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy. I create a calm and positive environment, supervise them closely, and adapt to each pet’s personality. You can trust that your furry family member will be in loving hands! 🐾
About: I have lived with dogs since childhood. I have had several dogs of my own, currently I have two Border Collies, one is a tripod. I am currently not working so I am available 7 days a week. I expect that will change and I will update my schedule then. I offer safety and trust to you and your animals. I am available to let them out, take them for walks, give meds, snuggles and playtime up to 3 times per day.
About: I have always had dogs in my life. From a black lab hunting dog, to an elderly chihuahua, and a puppy Siberian husky! I currently have two cats (mama & kitty) that I rescued from a foster home. Pets are the best!! I’m a retired US Air Force officer, so I have a lot of flexibility. I enjoy walking and taking my grand-dogs to the dog park. I’m home a lot because I’m retired from the military, so I have a ton of flexibility. So, I can spend a lot of time with your pet.

About: I grew up around livestock and all sorts of other animals. I recently lost my own dog but when I had her I used Rover to help find a regular dog sitter for when I went on teacher conferences. I recently became trained in dog and cat CPR and first aid. I am not afraid to give medications to an animal and have taken care of dogs that have special needs such as anxiety, fear of fireworks, fear of guns and high energy. I am currently on a teaching schedule but after memorial day I will be available most days. If I am away during the summer it's usually just during the day. They will take first priority, getting food, water, any medications prescribed and taken to go outside will all take place before my needs. I can provide a kennel at my home and kennel trained my own dog understanding the process for that.
About: I have taken care of kittens, puppies, dogs. I have also trained my dog when I was younger when she was a puppy. I’m just here to help. If there’s anything I can do please let me know. I’d love to be a part of making sure your vacation or your day is less stressful I am in school and also I will be working from home. Going to the office a couple times a week so I am very flexible. I will ask to understand your needs wants and values period if there are certain things that you need accommodations, for I would love to understand them so that we can have a very clear understanding so that you can enjoy your time away from your pets as best as possible.
About: I am a retired Certified Veterinary Technician. I have 30 years of caring for my own furry family members. I am trusted by friends and neighbors to enter their homes and care for their beloved pets. I have a spacious home and fenced in yard. I can care for those with special needs. I am a newly single mother looking for income doing what comes naturally. I am a care giver by nature. My schedule is open. I am available for your needs. I have a senior dog that suffers from separation anxiety. He has always been by my side. He is gentle and gets along with all other animals. I have 3 rescued cats, one of which has special dietary needs. I am well trusted by my friends and neighbors to care for their furry family members while they are away at appointments or a 2 week long vacation. I am trusted to enter their homes, as well as have their pets in my home.
About: I’ve had dogs consistently in my house since I was born. We have had big german shorthairs, as well as miniature schnauzers so I’m accommodating to any size dog, and can easily take care of them. I’ve just returned from school abroad and am back looking for a full-time job but in the meanwhile will be petsitting/walking/etc. whenever is asked of me. I have a pretty free schedule, so most any booking should work. I would be super considerate of any rules applied by the owners whether in the clients home or mine. I just have a lot of fun bonding and playing with animals, so I’m happy to perform all pet care servcies.
About: I have had dogs my entire life and have love for all animals. I have also worked with rescue groups and almost all of my pets have come from rescue situations. I am currently working part time and therefore have plenty of time to care for your pets. I have grown up with animals my entire life. At this time I am not offering sitting at our home as we are having work done to our home but hope to in the near future
About: The two loves of my life were my dog, Abby, and my dog Bronx. Abby was a Siberian husky and Bronx a 15” lemon beagle. Bronx was part of my life for 20 years and just recently passed. I honestly can’t imagine a life without animals in it, and one day I wanna be able to reflect back on my life, knowing that I did as much as I could to help as many animals as possible, which is why becoming a part of ROVER is so appealing. I have an incredibly flexible work schedule that will enable me to schedule my work hours around my hours caring for animals. I truly believe that animals are every bit as important as we are, and I think pet owners will be able to rest easy, leaving their pets in my care, knowing that their health and safety will be of the utmost importance to me! I have a two-story condo that they would be able to spend most of their time in with me. I also have a heated garage that I’ve converted into a safe and comfortable area for animals to play in. In addition to that, I live in Woodbury, literally surrounded by parks, full of walking paths that will be ideal for a dogs exercise. One thing I would like pet owners to know is that I’m not doing this for the money, I’m doing this because I’m newly single and alone and can’t think of anybody better to spend my time with than animals in need. I wouldn’t just be some dog watcher, I would be their friend that plays with them and loves being with them.
About: I have owned dogs most of my upbringing and early adulthood. I now have more free time to help others take care of their dogs without worry. I work a part time waitressing job, mostly in the afternoons. So I am free all day long while you are at work. I am able to flex and change my schedule for you! I am free to watch your dogs in your home so your animal knows its environment is safe. I am also free to just pop over and take your dog for a long walk.
About: I’m a passionate dog lover who’s spent years providing exceptional care to dogs of all breeds and ages. My journey began long before my beloved heart dog, whose companionship deepened my commitment to love, patience, and understanding in caring for furry companions. I believe every dog is unique and deserves to feel safe, cherished, and comfortable while their owners are away. What sets me apart - Heartfelt commitment: My genuine love for dogs drives me to create a nurturing environment where each pet feels at home. I respect the emotional bond between pets and their owners and work to maintain the pet’s comfort in the owner’s absence. - Puppy expertise: I use positive reinforcement to support good behavior, healthy socialization, and plenty of playtime for puppies. - Senior dog care: I provide compassionate, specialized care for senior dogs, from gentle exercise routines to medication administration, ensuring their comfort and wellbeing. - Personalized attention: I learn each dog’s personality, preferences, and routine so I can tailor care—whether it’s walks, playtime, or cuddles—to make their stay enjoyable and stress-free. With a heartfelt approach and commitment to excellence, I guarantee your furry family member will receive the love, attention, safety, and care they deserve while you’re away. As a self-employed entrepreneur, I have the flexibility to seamlessly integrate pet care into my daily and weekly routine. This allows me to dedicate ample time and attention to your furry family during their stay. Whether it's providing companionship, engaging in playtime, or adhering to their feeding and exercise schedules, I ensure that your pet receives the care and love they need. My adaptable schedule means your pet will never feel alone, and I can provide consistent support and companionship throughout their time with me. In my home, your pet's safety and comfort are my top priority. I have a secure, fenced yard where they can play and explore freely. My space is designed to accommodate your furry friend with plenty of room to relax. If you prefer, I can crate your dog for added security, or we can allow them to roam comfortably without a crate during their stay. Rest assured, your pet will feel safe and at home in my care.

“Elizabeth was wonderful and very accommodating! If we ever are in Red Wing and need boarding we will definitely call Elizabeth! She is a great communicator and sent pictures of our Buster and Teddy!!”
“Karen and family took amazing care of our giant Newfoundland Nora. Spoiled her during her stay which was great to see. Pictures and updates daily showed how good of a time she had. Thank you for taking care of our baby.”
“Dylan and Whitney’s care of Dusty was phenomenal. They were able to take Dusty in on short notice and treated him so well. In addition, the communication and the speed of communication was always great and fast. Dylan sent us pics to help us while we were missing him. They were always a highlight of our day. We HIGHLY recommend Dylan!”
“John and Teri were the best!! Truly, we couldn’t have imagined better. We knew immediately at the meet and greet that our dog would be comfortable and well cared for, and the pictures and video they sent showed we were exactly right. He was having a blast and feeling right at home! We love that they really enjoy his company and care about him. He will be going back in a couple weeks and we are so grateful to know we don’t need to worry about him when we are out of town. Thank you so much, John and Teri!!”
“Stacy always takes such good care of Bonnie. We never have to worry and get photo updates throughout our trip of how she is doing. Would recommend to anyone with a dog. We will definitely book with Stacy in the future!”
“This was our first time using Tricia's services. Great communication and she was very accommodating to let us come to the house and check it out before we left our dog there for the weekend. Would definitely use again!”
“Our dog had an awesome stay with Jazmin & Mary. Communication was thorough with daily updates and pictures and even a written report when we picked our dog up. We highly recommend using Jazmin & Mary if you want to be assured that your dog is well taken care of!”
“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.”
“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 dogs had a great time at Alisha's. We went camping for a weekend, which was our first time leaving them at a sitter's house since we got them. We felt very assured that they were in good hands. They were pooped when we picked them up and slept all day once we got home. Doesn't happen often so that's how we knew they got a lot of playing in that weekend!”
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.
“Serah was an amazing person to have as our little Lita’s foster momma while we had an extended vacation. She kept us in the loop with texts and pictures. It was so reassuring to have our pup taken care of and loved as her own. Lita loved the fenced in yard and having Riley, Serah’s dog, as her playmate. We highly recommend Serah. We will definitely choose her again as our first choice in dog sitters.”
“Our experience with this wonderful family was just that, wonderful! The entire family helped care for Bailey just like she was their own. Lots of snuggles, love & attentive care. Our family had just lost our dear Betsy (our older blue heeler). We had to let her go in January of this year due to illness & age. It was very clear that Bailey was missing her. So when she met some new friends like these great people, she was in heaven. Along with variety of 4 legged friends. We received lots of updates and pics on our vacation and that really put our minds at ease. I don’t think Bailey wanted to leave when we came to pick her up!😁 We feel blessed to have found this family and will definitely be booking again! Thank you ♥️”
“Alexander cared for my dog exceptionally well. I received photos and videos during the stay and it looked like my dog was having lots of fun. I highly recommend Alexander and will rebook with him for future stays!”
“Abby and her family are fantastic! They watched my dog Seger for the week. I got updates and pictures throughout the week, which was great and put me at ease. I was able to enjoy my vacation while Seger was enjoying extra snuggles and loves from the family. I would use Abby again and I know Seger can’t wait to visit!”
About: Hi, I'm Kay! I am a professional animal caretaker with 12+ years of paid experience. I am a HUGE animal lover. Along with my professional background, I've also cohabitated with and personally cared for dozens of animals throughout my lifetime. I currently live with my leash-trained kitty, Vada, who has travelled all around the USA with me! Some animals I've worked closely with include: dogs, cats, hamsters, degus, rabbits, guinea pigs, fish, turtles, frogs, goats, pigs, cows, turkeys, chickens, ducks, horses, donkeys, sheep, snails, and llamas. While I love ALL animals, I definitely have a special place in my heart for cats and chickens! I am a fast learner and a competent person, so I am confident that with a little guidance, I can appropriately care for pretty much any species! I would love to get more hands-on experience with fish, bunnies, animals with disabilities, and any type of reptile. I plan to have my own animal sanctuary one day, so am always looking to expand on my animal knowledge. <3 I have a fully-enclosed double pet stroller that I would be happy to share with my smaller clients. While I am not a professional cat trainer, I have taught my own two to walk on leashes, so I would be open to working with your felines if that's something that you feel could enrich their lives. Not all cats find it enjoyable! When boarding, your pet will be in my home with me, and/or I have a separate room for visitors that may be more stressed out in a new environment. I work from home, so I am almost always around to supervise. I can walk, play, clean litter boxes, change diapers, bathe, clean cages, administer medication, and/or just provide company for your non-human pals. If you're unsure if I can provide a specific service, don't hesitate to ask. I understand that animals are individuals with different needs and quirks. I am flexible, and can work with the specific needs of your companion animal. :) I recently relocated to Stockton, so I am looking for new, hopefully long-term, clients in the area. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions. Information here is to give general idea of my services/prices, but am flexible! I work from home, and my schedule is very flexible for pet sitting. I am able to work with my clients on whatever best suits their needs. Every animal is an individual with different needs, so I always meet my clients where they're at. I prefer pet sitting within the animals' own homes as I've found most everyone is more at ease in a familiar environment. When boarding in my own home, I ask pet parents to pack all of the essentials from home such as- beds, toys, snacks, crates, puzzle feeders, a shirt that smells like someone they love, etc. I love to take photos and share updates as often as requested, but usually at least once a day.
“We had a fantastic experience with Tasha on Rover! We already knew Tasha, so we were confident our dog would be in great hands and she absolutely delivered. Her family helped out too, and it was clear our pups got tons of love and attention from everyone. Tasha kept us updated throughout our trip, and we came home to a happy, relaxed dog who clearly enjoyed his time with them. The sweetest surprise? They even taught him a brand-new trick! He’s been proudly showing it off. Highly recommend Tasha and her wonderful family to anyone looking for a caring, trustworthy sitter. We’ll definitely be booking again! 🐾💛”
“Kelsey really took good care of my two little dogs. They had plenty of play time and down time too (they do like their afternoon naps)! The facility is nice and well-kept as well. I highly recommend her for personalized care and love for the dogs. Sherri”
