“She loves pups”
About: I have had dogs my whole life and one thing I have learned is that they deserve all the love in the world! No matter the dog or care, I will treat it with so much love and care! I am student at the University of St. Thomas and around classes, I have flexible free time before, after, and in between to do pet care, whatever may be needed. I will ensure that all dogs feel loved while its owners are away along with making sure they are properly fed and cared for as instructed by the owners.
“Victoria was very accommodating. I had put in the wrong dates and she was able to come when i needed her to. Very nice and was able to provide great care for Adelaide!”
“Molly was absolutely fantastic! First time using rover and we were worried about leaving them with someone other then family or friends and she made it so much easier. We love the fact that they send pictures and can message if they have any questions! You won’t go wrong with having Molly take care of your precious fur babies!”
“Alex was great! He handled our high energy dog very well. Millie was a happy girl when we got home! He followed our instructions and I felt very comfortable that Millie would be well taken care of on the drop in visit. Would definitely recommend Alex!”

About: I've had pets (dogs of all sizes, cats, fish) since I was 7. I currently have a dog of my own. I've trained her. I am always happy to watch, play, feed, bathe, and walk dogs. I am a stay-at-home dog owner, which means taking care of your dog is my main priority! Doggy day care and boarding is always available. I usually accept all dogs. I only refuse service if the dog has previously bit me and/or continued aggression. I have one very friendly female dog (spayed) who loves to make new friends and spend time with old ones. I keep dogs typically in the living area, uncaged. I only cage dogs if the owner requests it, and in a different room from the other dogs. I do have another helper (my fiance), as he also enjoys dogs very much. My walking route is usually around Glen Park, I change it up as needed to boost the adventure for your dog(s). **Water will ALWAYS be available and replenished for your dog(s). Food schedule based.**
About: Hi there! My name is Jenna and while I’m home I would love to watch your pup. I am a foster parent for many different rescues in the area including Cocos Heart, Across America Boxer Rescue and Rejection Collection Boxer Rescue. I have fostered everything from 10 week old puppies (yes I have the chew marks on my couch to prove it) to the unforgettable seniors! My home is full of dog beds, treats and all the loving they could ever want. I have a privacy fenced in backyard and provide kennels as well for safe spaces too. I would love to cuddle your fur baby while you are away. I will be returning to the office here in January but I can offer a safe space via kennel or pen while I’m at work (no longer than 8 hours). I do have some hybrid days that I may be home to give extra cuddles. When I’m not working, I’m home. While home, treats, loves, pets, outside time are in the agenda. When I am not home safe space kennel time with soothing music until I return will play. My privacy fence covers 90% of my yard with a fenced gate covering the other 10%. Your fur baby will not be outside unattended however. I also have a boxer that if they get along they are welcomed to play together, however if they don’t get along no worries! Being a foster parent I know how to split my house and time between to babies. I also have cameras set up so I can keep an eye on the babies at all times. Your fur baby will be treated like royalty when they are staying here.

About: My fur baby lived 15 years, so i have experience for any age. My fur baby required five eye medications everyday, as well as a pill after dinner. She was blind and gets up 2-3 times a night to go to the bathroom. Before she went blind and got cushing’s disease, we would go for walks/runs. I have watched 3 of my siblings fur babies multiple times from small to large sizes and my friends fur babies as well. I had to take care of my sisters dads dog for three months at my home. Feeding, brushing, exercising,medication, playing, and cuddling are all things I have done in the past! I am available after 4pm Monday through Thursday and I am available Fridays after 10:30am, Saturday and Sunday to be determined please reach out :) I will not leave your fur baby unsupervised I will be outside with your fur baby on potty breaks leashed and I will strictly follow dietary restrictions
About: I have experience taking care of cats since I was 14 years old, but I personally have three cats of my own now (since 2017) - so I am very well versed in their daily needs! I work full-time (Monday to Friday) in Hudson, but I am done around 4 or 5 pm at the latest, so I would be able to check in during the evenings on your kitty! I am usually free Friday evenings, Saturday, and Sunday, as well. I reside in River Falls. Since I have three cats of my own, I am very able to fulfill their basic needs and can read their demeanor well (if they’re friendly/outgoing or would like to have space). I’m such an animal lover and every pet’s wellbeing is important to me!
“Very communicative. Very loving. Lots of great photos. 11/10!”
About: My mother breeds miniature Australian shepherds and I used to work with her for 10 years taking care of newborn, teenage, and adult dogs. I have done everything from training, bathing, giving medications, and plenty of animal loving! We would board all types of dogs big to small too. I grew up with many dogs in my household and know first hand how our animals are our children and how to care and make them feel so very loved. I am currently a flight attendant and my schedule varies month to month. The days that I am home I will be able and can send you my schedule a month in advance. I have a spacious apartment with a dog park attached as well as a wonderful walking trail to get your furry loved one the exercise they need. I do have a cat that keeps to himself but loves dogs. If you’re dog just wants the company I do allow dogs on my couch and bed. Have plenty of toys, water and food dish, and pee pee pads just in case.
About: I have taken care of animals since I was 10 years old. Family, neighbors, and friends have always trusted me to do so. They bring extra happiness to my every day life! I have always said, we don’t deserve animals. I have a special place in my heart for them! I am looking to do this as an extra source of income to help provide for my family. This sounds like a great opportunity for me to make some income while doing something I love! I am flexible. I have two dogs, and two cats of my own! One is a border collie ( 5 years old) who loves to herd the cats around the house and stare at them. The other is a black lab (1.5 years old) who is a big teddy bear and doesn’t know his own size but, is a gentle giant. The two cats mind their own business but, come out for cuddles every so often. They definitely love their treats! We unfortunately do not have a fenced in yard but, we have dog leads that our dogs are able to be let out on. We also let them run free when we are out there with them. They love tossing the ball around and chasing after it! Having a friendly/safe neighborhood has made it very enjoyable for walks as well. Our home has hardwood floor throughout the main living areas so, it is easy for clean up if needed! We are animal friendly 🥰🐾
About: Grew up around many species from farm animals and exotics. I own 6 dogs, 4 cats, 6 snakes and 2 geckos currently. I've been around small dogs and larger dogs all my life. I work full time in a factory but on my days off I have very flexible hours to come visit everyone's furry babies. For this reason I don't do sitting overnight often. I won't bring other animals into my home but while out with your dogs or in your home I'll follow everything told to me. If they need certain care outside of standard care just let me know

Jenna L.Star Sitter
“Jenna has been a dear friend for over a decade, she has been loving animals the entire time. I trust her watching my 4 human children, and if she can handle that, she can handle anything! She has so much experience with dogs, she would be a great fit for Rover. Her home is set up wonderfully for watching dogs and I know they would be treated incredibly well under her care. She has fostered so many different breeds and ages of dogs, I truly believe you would be lucky to have her watch one of your fury friends!”
Chelsea M.
“If you need someone to animal-sit, Chelsea is an amazing, kind, compassionate, and loving towards animals person! She listened excellently to our requests, provided loving care, and took pride in the things she would need to do to take proper care of our pets. She even took care of our chickens without hesitation! We don't kennel our pups because it causes to much stress for them. I'm so thankful that we found Chelsea as she treats them like they are her own. Bonus, she took pride in making sure the house was in order! Thank you Chelsea She is the favorite sitter for our Nikki girl!”

Renee K.
“Renee is a beautiful soul! She has a heart for animals, and they know it! When our daughter passed away we had to leave our homestead (very challenging to find and trust someone to care for it so we rarely leave), we were blessed to have Renee stay at our homestead and care for our 2 dogs, a cat, 16 hens, a mean rooster, and fish. All of our animals loved her immediately. I was so comfortable leaving everything we have in her hands, especially through such a traumatic time. She even made our pups special treats! I know she loved on them because she would text when she would feel a lump or a growth, concerned if it was an immediate vet visit. So loving and so caring. Our pups grieved for a week after she left! If you need a trustworthy, reliable caretaker for your animals, Renee is your person and she comes with a BIG heart! We are so grateful to her. We didn't have to worry about anything at home. A thousand percent recommend Renee!”

Dakota S.
“Dakota has been helping me with my animals for years. She has helped me out with my senior dog that needed lots of care and medicine. She's very confident and knows what she's doing. Even helped me with a very hyper German Shepard puppy that would throw temper tantrums. All of my animals love her.”
