“This family took my puppy at the last min for over 24 hrs they made sure they kept me updated with pictures. Daisy seemed well taking care of and wore out from playing. I will definitely be booking with them again often.”
“Another great stay with Joan! Kona is obviously well taken care of and is tired from all the playing/hiking/outdoor time when she comes home. She loves her Joan time!!”
“Patty did an outstanding job with our dogs! She managed to communicate with us daily even though we were out of the country and difficult to get hold of. When one of the dogs became ill, Patty handled everything perfectly and went above and beyond to ensure that our pets recovery went well. Her pet handling skills were evident and very much appreciated! Highly recommend!”
“I would definitely book with Nicole again! This was my first time using Rover, and I was a little nervous at first. Okay, maybe a lot nervous, haha. Drop off and pick up were a breeze. My dog got to meet some new friends and go to the dog park. Nicole was very responsive and sent great updates and pics! It was such a relief knowing he was happy and safe. He even got to sleep on the bed.”

“Heather is amazing! She’s so kind and always goes above and beyond for my dog, Reka. She even carved a pumpkin for her this time!

Always a great experience with Heather — highly recommend!”
“Stacie did an amazing job looking after my Kadie! She sent pictures and updates every day, and Kadie came home tired and happy! Anyone looking for a good, kind pet-sitter is in the right place!”

“I can’t say enough great things about how fantastic Rachel and her family were with our dog, Larry. He was there for 5 nights over the 4th of July Holiday and had the time of his life. Rachel was so good about sending lots of pictures that we really felt like we had a good idea of how much fun he was having. Rachel’s family welcomed Larry like he was one of their own and their 4 dogs did a good job of showing Larry how life on the farm works! They even took him hiking at the nearby Pattison state park and he played a lot of fetch in their meadow and swam in the stream on their property. I would highly recommend to anyone who wants their dog to have a great adventure!!”

About: I have owned cats my entire life. My very first pet was a Siamese cat named Emma that I got for Christmas when I was 7 years old.

My family has always had cats and I’ve been able to make sure they are fed, watered, groomed, and get lots of love and playtime. I also have had my own cat, Virginia, for over 7 years now and she’s my world. I’m new to the area and co manage the Duluth Buckle location. I would love to get to know the area more and fill my free time helping take care of other cats!

“Liz is so communicative and kind! I had the utmost trust in her ability to care for my boys, and she really came through with the updates and pictures. Next time I need a pet sitter I'm asking Liz first :))”
About: I've cared for a total of 8 kitties in my lifetime, from the daily feeding and litter scooping to claw trimming to intensive palliative care, and the 12 weeks of injections for Minky's FIP (she is totally healthy now!), and Poppy's twice daily epilepsy meds. I can handle any and all of it! Now I have 3 cats. Moki, my 16 yo boy, Minky, who's 3, and Poppy, the youngest at 2 years old. We all love our play sessions, whether that's with their wand and feather toy, their colorful springs, or exploring the outdoors in their harnesses. I will prioritize play if your kitty is comfortable with it!
“Anna was a great sitter for my cat ! I was afraid he would be hiding the whole time during her visits but she took the time to win him over, and he accepted some affection. She sent lots of photos , she brought in a package for me, she even made it over during a lot of snow when travel was difficult. She came by twice so I could show her how to open our difficult front door and give her the keys, she came all the way back to drop them off to me when I got home from traveling. She also volunteered to do one last check up on him when I was going to be back later than expected because of flights. Will definitely be booking her again when I travel again.”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Poplar
“Jennifer quickly responded to our last-minute request to care for our dog while we attended a nearby wedding. We appreciated the photos and updates, which put our minds at ease knowing our dog was in good hands!”
“Patty S. took good care of Marvin! Patty was very accommodating with a short notice scheduling and also some last minute changes in pick-up time. We look forward to having Marvin stay with her again!”
“Rachel and family are the absolute best! Could not ask for better people to take care of Luna! They do a great job of exercising and playing with her! She always comes home exhausted.”
“Winnie seemed very comfortable with Peter and Barb. Peter provided good ongoing photos and communication which put our minds at ease right away. We will use his services again.”
“Nicole is great to work with. She is very good with my dog. She takes him to dog parks and on walks and when he comes home, he is tired! She is knowledgeable and has shared some tips with me which I really appreciate. She communicates with me during the day and sends lots of pictures. I am very grateful to have found her!”
“We couldn’t be happier with our first experience using Rover, and it was all thanks to our wonderful pet sitter! She was available on very short notice and went above and beyond to accommodate us. She even met us at a local Starbucks for drop-off instead of having us drive to her home, which made a huge difference in keeping our busy day on schedule. Partway through our trip, our plans unexpectedly changed from needing only daytime care to requiring an overnight stay. Once again, she was incredibly flexible, accommodating, and easy to work with. Throughout our dog’s stay, she was very responsive, sending regular updates and photos that gave us peace of mind and reassured us that our pet was happy and well cared for. As first-time Rover users, we weren’t sure what to expect, but this experience exceeded our expectations. On top of providing exceptional care, her rates were more affordable than anyone else we found in the area. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, reliable, and reasonably priced pet sitter. We will definitely be using her again!”
“This was Phillip and Clark’s second time with Nathan and Laura, and they seemed excited as soon as we got there. We got pictures throughout the day, and the boys seemed happy and tired when we picked them up. Another great stay!”
About: Hi there! My name is Savannah (or Sav for short!) and I’ve worked in pet care for 6 years in Minneapolis before moving to Duluth, resulting in completing hundreds of walks and dozens of sittings- and I love what I do! I also am the dog mom of a spunky 11 year old German Shepard mix. I understand the need for detailed and compassionate care, especially in the winter and summer when extra resources like dog boots or extra water may be needed. The pets I’ve had in my care lately range from pit bulls and labs to pugs and even older dogs. I am excited to meet your dog! I spend all day, everyday walking dogs of all ages and breeds. Pet care is my full time job and I love what I do! Many dogs feel most comfortable in their own home so I am happy to provide sittings in your home to care for your pet the way you would! I have experience training and specific requests, like administering medications. I always will treat your pet with the utmost care and respect!
“Christina has a wonderful facility! Our dog enjoyed playing with her dogs, walking along the trails and exploring the forest, and everything in between. It’s obvious that she cared for my dog in the same way. She cares for her own. We will definitely use Christina again, and are so happy to have found her!”
“Great rover! We had our dog spend the day at Jamie’s place for the day while we had family over. Jamie was super nice and super thoughtful and accommodating with our dog. Would definitely go with her again in the future!”
About: I have two cats of my own. My tuxedo lu has been around since I was super little, I’ve carried her with me everywhere i go! My fluffy boy moo was a rescue a few years ago, he’s a big sweetie. I have a dog named ollie that I share custody of with my mom. he comes with me on all of the road trips and hikes. I’ve sat for family members and people in my area since I was 15. I also have reptile experience caring for chameleons and snakes. I’m here for any pet! Taking care of animals is my passion ☺️ I do photography full time so my schedule stays pretty flexible. I’m typically available on holidays! I don’t mind to travel a little for your furry friends, so don’t worry too much if you’re far away! I love spending most of my time with my cats. No matter what I’m doing—they’re at my feet or on my lap. My cat moo comes on hikes with me! I enjoy getting fur babies out of the house into the world. I have a dog cover on the back seats in my car. I will always reach out to ask before traveling with your dog, this is not necessary, just an offer! :)
“Lori was great with Junior! She went on multiple walks with him and Junior got to meet other dogs as well. I got photos and updates throughout the day of my sweet baby! Junior was pooped out when he got home, so I’d say this puppy had a fun day!”
“Courtnie is absolutely fantastic! My little guy is usually a bit skittish when going to a new home for day care but he warmed up extremely well with Courtnie and her dogs! She is super accommodating and incredible when it comes to the care of dogs, very highly recommended her! Thank you so much!! ?”
About: I live along the shore of Lake Superior, about 10 minutes north of Duluth. I grew up with cats and dogs around all the time. More recently I lived with a roommate who had 3 dogs (small and medium-sized) who I cared for during the day all week. Love animals of all kinds. I try to walk 4-5 miles each day on my quiet dirt road and also along Lake Superior right by my house. I work remotely and am basically always home, so your pet will have their needs taken care of! I work remotely and have no set work schedule, so I'm very flexible. I try to get outside and walk every day. I also have trails by my house to walk on. I have no pets and I live by myself. I have a medium-sized yard, but plan on keeping any dogs or cats on leashes when we go outside. I have a small-ish house but plenty of room for pets - they could have their own bedroom if they want!
About: I am fun love to play with dogs and enjoy spending one on one time with them as well as playing with them to much Full time dog sitter that loves animals and being able to spend time with them. Also just loving on your animals I love my own dogs as well. I would keep your house clean and clean up after your dog and make sure nothing is messed with. Also making sure your dog is leashed at all times when on walks.
“Heather and her family did such an amazing job with Edie. They helped her ease into a new environment and gave her lots of love and affection. Heather sent many updates during the day and in all the pictures Edie looked happy and content. When Edie got home she was exhausted from a day of fun. I would recommend Heather to anyone looking for care for their pup!”
About: Care experience with all ages of dogs with emotional and some medical needs. Experience with potty training, aggression, and separation anxiety. Gentle care is always provided. My husband and I have lived our whole lives surrounded by pets and animals so we have experience and lots of love to give! I currently work a few very long shifts a week instead of daily leaving my home so I will only accept pets the days I am at home and available to give pets the attention they deserve. We have a large yard that is unfenced. We have one pup ourselves and two kitties. Our typical routine for our pet is to spend lots of time outdoors and on walks, to allow free feeding and sleeping in our bedroom on a pet bed on the floor at night, and crate training for when we are away from home. We can accommodate adjustments to this routine for your pet when they are at our home to accommodate feeding and kenneling schedules.
About: Hi! I’m Molly — a Duluth local, mom of two, and lifelong dog lover. I know how important it is to feel completely at ease when someone else is caring for your pet. They’re family. I treat every dog in my care the same way I treat my own — with patience, structure, warmth, and lots of attention. I work primarily from home, which means your dog won’t be left alone for long stretches. I’m used to managing routines (kids + life 😅), so feeding schedules, medication timing, crate routines, and special instructions are absolutely welcome. I also have a 4- and 7-year-old who absolutely love dogs and have grown up around them. They are gentle, respectful, and understand boundaries — but because of that, I do require that any dog in my care is comfortable around children. If your pup enjoys being part of a family environment with lots of love (and the occasional extra belly rub from small humans), they’ll feel right at home here. We spend a lot of time outside — neighborhood walks, time in the yard, and enjoying all the fresh air Duluth has to offer. If your dog loves movement and stimulation, they’ll fit right in. If they’re more of a couch-and-cuddles type, I’m equally happy to match their pace. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine. I work primarily from home, so I’m able to provide consistent supervision, potty breaks, walks, and attention throughout the day — not just mornings and evenings. Our family already has a rhythm built around school drop-offs, outdoor time, and evenings at home, which makes it easy to incorporate regular walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and quiet rest periods. I’m very comfortable following a dog’s existing routine so they feel secure and settled while you’re away. Weekends are typically slower and home-centered for us, which allows for even more engagement, walks, and time outside. Your dog wouldn’t be an “add-on” to our week — they’d be part of our normal flow. When caring for pets in my home, I focus on helping them feel safe and settled as quickly as possible. I follow their usual feeding schedule, potty routine, crate preferences, and any specific instructions you provide. I keep the environment calm, clean, and supervised, with plenty of outdoor time and play balanced with rest. Because I have children, safety is always a top priority. Dogs are never left unattended with kids, and I only accept pets who are comfortable in a family environment. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I’m equally respectful and detail-oriented. I stick closely to your established routine so your pet experiences as little disruption as possible. I’m mindful of your space, keep things tidy, and provide consistent updates with photos so you feel connected and reassured while you’re away. My goal is for you to return to a happy, well-cared-for pet and a home just as you left it.

Adventure-ready dog walkers - Poplar
“Amber is the best! I'm so happy with how it's going with my pups! My chihuahua-dachshund is impossible to walk but just a couple of weeks of walking with Amber and he's walking without pulling!!”
“Christina is wonderful with our 4 month old puppy Dolly. She has been very helpful in the training and socializing processes. She is very kind, patient, courteous and responsible. Christina communicates all needs or issues respectfully. Christina does her best to accommodate any changes to Dolly’s walk schedule. We feel 100% confident that Christina cares for Dolly as if she were one of her own. My husband and I can not say enough good things about Christina. If we could we would definitely give her way more than 5 stars. We would 100% recommend Christina to all of our family and friends.”
About: Living on a farm, I have a lot of experience interacting with animals of all kinds. Running a farm of any size is not a one person job so my family is a big part of my life. I can’t imagine a better place to live doing something I love. Pet care is an integral part of my daily routine. Whether it is feeding and watering our chickens and cows or grooming our dogs, I work hard to ensure our animals are cared for. I am a stay at home mom so your four legged friends will rarely be left alone. I work hard to follow any instructions owners may give me. Additionally, I make sure all animals in our care have access to food, water, and love. I also like to take a few pictures of what we are up to send them to people so they know their pet is getting loved and cared for.
“I received a cuter pic of my dog sitting so pretty than I’ve ever been able to take. Sav was punctual and had good communication throughout. I know my dog is in good hands. Will book again!!”
“Audriana is fantastic! She gives my updates of how my puppy is doing on his walks and sends me pictures. She also gave me over a months notice when she was going to be out of town and not able to walk my little guy. Would HIGHLY recommend Audriana.”

About: Hi! My name is Anna! Since I was five I have always been around dogs. I would dog sit for my grandmother's three corgis, a few coworkers of my mom, even friends and relatives. Having a dog of my own I understand the responsibilities that are entitled. I've had experience with giving animals medicine too, so that isn't a problem for me! I promise I will give your dog my full attention whether it be for food, potty breaks, or even a good ear scratch! If any problems arise I will make sure to contact you with any and all questions I might have! Long walks are my favorite and very therapeutic, so why not give a dog a little exercise in the mean time? I am hardworking, attentive, cautious, able to follow explicit care instructions, reliable, and trustworthy towards any and all dogs and people I come across! I hope I can have the opportunity to work with you and your furry friend! I work early afternoon/evenings four days a week, so if you need someone to hang out with your pal during the day while you're at work, then I'm your gal! I am super attentive to all animals in my household. Potty breaks, exercise, food, I keep up with any and all needs. Im gentle, friendly, respectful of space and chill.
About: I have owned dogs my entire life. I grew up with long haired dachshunds. I have also owned labs, a Dalmatian, huskies, you name it. I love big cuddly dogs the most, but will love up on the smallest to the biggest dog the same. I also have a big heart for senior pets. I work full-time during the week but I am always on the go and able to help with pet sitting, dog walking, helping with caring for animals as needed. I am available for house-sitting depending on the days/times. When I go to someone's home to care for their pet I will treat it as though it is my own pet, which is with the utmost care, kindness and love. I have a huge heart for all living beings including animals and humans. I am highly responsible, and responsive.
About: I have had multiple dogs ever since I was born and love providing care for them. My grandparents also owned a dog kennel so have always been aware of proper exercise, care, and support for dogs of all shapes and sizes. Lastly, I am in school to become a nurse so caring for others is a passion of mine! I currently am a college student moving back to Duluth over the summer and work two jobs which allow me the availability to pick and chose the days I work so if enough in advance I am very available to fit pet care into my weekly routine any day of the week! I have a half fenced in yard at my house but also very aware of the area and neighbors surrounding. I have easy access to hook up a long leash for the dog to play while I supervise as well as, no other dogs live with me.
About: I simply adore animals! I will provide loving, playful, patient, high quality care that will leave your fur babies begging for more! I am able to administer medications and general care as specified. I also offer nail/claw trims for dogs and cats for $20. Just check the bathing/grooming box. I prioritize play, so even drop ins will get plenty of entertainment! Supervised puzzle feeds, or playing with favorite toys, or whatever pops up in the moment. Pup-led play is usually the most fun! My schedule is fairly open most of the time, but I am going to be starting trade school to become a barefoot specialist for equines sometime in 2026. I need a flexible work schedule so I can trim my case study horses, and the horses I already trim for a friend. - REGARDING OVERNIGHT STAYS! My rates are for ONE 12 hr overnight visit. If you need me for consecutive nights with drop ins during the day, my rates increase to cover each drop in. Walks, nail trims, daily brushing are also an additional cost. These additional charges will be discounted, not my full rate. Let's discuss it 😃 My kitties and I enjoy a peaceful life out in the country. We're new to it, and it's not our house, so I am not currently offering boarding or doggy daycare. I am incredibly respectful of others' spaces. I follow the 'leave no trace' hiking guideline into clients' homes! I respect privacy and will never invite strangers in or take photos for any other reason than to update you, the owner.
About: Hi! My name is Mara, and I would love the opportunity to care for your pets and your home while you’re away. I have grown up with multiple dogs and have always loved being around animals. Over the years, I have also provided dog sitting and house sitting for neighbors and family members, caring for pets in their own homes, following their routines, and making sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship. I understand that every pet has their own personality, preferences, and needs. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply having someone nearby, I will take the time to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I also have experience providing more specialized care, including administering IV medication for an elderly animal I was watching. This experience taught me the importance of patience, responsibility, attention to detail, and following care instructions carefully. My background working in childcare, summer camps, and other safety-focused roles has helped me become dependable, organized, and attentive. I will treat your pets like they are my own and your home with the same respect I would want someone to show mine.

I am happy to provide updates and photos so owners can have peace of mind knowing their pets are well cared for.
About: I'm Ashley. 29 years old. I have 7-8 years of experience sitting dogs. I give them my full attention at all times. I will play with them, and walk them. I will make sure they are fed, and hydrated! I'm a big animal lover! Most dogs that I've sat in the past loved me, and my attention I gave them. They will always leave happy :) I will sometimes spoil them if they're good. I'll go to the store, and pick up some toys or treats. My kids get along very well with animals. They will always play with them as well. My kids have never got injured by any dog or cat. I'm hoping you'll choose me to sit your animal!:)) I'm a stay at home so I have all day to care, and play with them! If my kids don't need me first then they have my full attention. I make sure to get them comfortable first. I fill up their dish bowls right away. They'll either come to me to sit or if they're a smaller dog I'll pick up, and sit with. They always show they are content by licking my hand, and following me around.

I have a dog named ollie that I share custody of with my mom. he comes with me on all of the road trips and hikes. I’ve sat for family members and people in my area since I was 15. I also have reptile experience caring for chameleons and snakes. I’m here for any pet! Taking care of animals is my passion ☺️ I do photography full time so my schedule stays pretty flexible. I’m typically available on holidays! I don’t mind to travel a little for your furry friends, so don’t worry too much if you’re far away! I love spending most of my time with my cats. No matter what I’m doing—they’re at my feet or on my lap. My cat moo comes on hikes with me! I enjoy getting fur babies out of the house into the world. I have a dog cover on the back seats in my car. I will always reach out to ask before traveling with your dog, this is not necessary, just an offer! :)
About: Hi! Welcome to my profile. My name is Morgan and I am an experienced pet sitter and guarantee 5 star service. I have a 4 year old black lab named Kallie who I adore more than words could explain. I have grown up around animals throughout my life, so I feel very comfortable with all shapes, sizes and breeds! I have been pet sitting for nearly 10 years and have loved every second of it. I am trustworthy, dependable and full of all the energy your pet(s) may need from a sitter! Meet and greets are not a requirement but if you would like to schedule one I offer virtual or in person. Every booking is completely custom. If you have any sort of schedule or routine you need me to follow during your reservation I would be more than happy to do so. I will send updates, pictures, and videos. Thank you so much for checking out my Rover Profile. Can't wait to chat soon! I look forward to getting to know you and your furry friends! ❤️ I’m currently a stay at home mom to a 2 year old. Due to this, I am very flexible. However, if the time that I am needed is anytime before 3:30 pm (excluding weekends), she would more than likely need to come hang out with me and your fur babies. She’s a big animal lover already with her fur baby at home! I have a friendly pup with a big yard (10 acres) and can crate/leash if needed! My dog is family, you can ensure that your pet will be treated as family as well.
About: I have grown up with dogs all my life, ranging in breeds from dalmatians to terriers to labs to shepards. I am able to go for runs with active dogs or give company to the elderly ones. I have two dogs of my own: a 9 yr old lab mix and a 6 yr old German Shepard. I have had nothing but great experiences using Rover, and want to make sure others experience the same. Looking forward to meeting your doggos! I currently work the standard M-F, so I’m available for care and walks mostly on weekends. However depending on location, I can accommodate drop-in’s during the week. I live in a quiet neighborhood streets for walks with parks nearby. I have 2 playful dogs of my own, but they also know how to relax. Plenty of space in house for them to roam or be crated at your request.
About: I have had dogs in my family for as long as I can remember - mutts, goldens, even a very talkative chihuahua - I loved them all! Friends call me to watch their pets often. I am comfortable with every breed of dog, and cats tend to snuggle me or judge me - I’m fine with either! I am currently working as a virtual assistant, with travel to help some clients on-site. I can easily make walks, feedings, day-care and over night stays fit into this schedule. I will take my lead from you and your pet. If it’s active and likes walks or to play, I am happy to do that. I always make sure that there is water in the bowl, and that feeding times are followed.

“Another great stay with Joan! Kona is obviously well taken care of and is tired from all the playing/hiking/outdoor time when she comes home. She loves her Joan time!!”
“Patty did an outstanding job with our dogs! She managed to communicate with us daily even though we were out of the country and difficult to get hold of. When one of the dogs became ill, Patty handled everything perfectly and went above and beyond to ensure that our pets recovery went well. Her pet handling skills were evident and very much appreciated! Highly recommend!”

Always a great experience with Heather — highly recommend!”

“I can’t say enough great things about how fantastic Rachel and her family were with our dog, Larry. He was there for 5 nights over the 4th of July Holiday and had the time of his life. Rachel was so good about sending lots of pictures that we really felt like we had a good idea of how much fun he was having. Rachel’s family welcomed Larry like he was one of their own and their 4 dogs did a good job of showing Larry how life on the farm works! They even took him hiking at the nearby Pattison state park and he played a lot of fetch in their meadow and swam in the stream on their property. I would highly recommend to anyone who wants their dog to have a great adventure!!”

“Shiloh and her family took such great care of Pico and Maggie so we could enjoy the weekend with extended family and friends as we celebrated graduation. Thanks for the kind and excellent care.”

“Lisa made us and our boys us feel welcome and comfortable from the beginning. She sent us updates and pictures of them while we were away. She was easy to get ahold of and responded quickly. We would recommend her to anyone and would definitely have her look after our boys again.”
“Christina was wonderful with our cat, Molly! We were so grateful she was available at the last minute. She stayed in contact the whole week we were gone and sent the cutest pictures of Molly! We highly recommend Christina and will absolutely call her again!”
“Lori was the absolute BEST with our Dog, Yukon! It was our first time leaving him overnight with a new person and she exceeded our expectations...And completely put us (and Yukon!) at ease. He came home tired and happy and we could tell it was a great experience from the updates and pictures she sent during his stay. We will be booking with Lori again and again!”
