About: Dog mom for over 25 years. Foster mom for 12 years. I have experience with a wide variety of dog breeds, in many different sizes, as well as major and minor medical conditions. As well as experience in medication administration. My life revolves around my dogs. I work during the day, and my evenings are for the dogs I support! My house isn’t my house, it’s my dog’s house and set up for particularly for them. I have a fenced in yard and two dogs ready to become your dogs friend. They would have access to the backyard through the doggy door and many water bowls and dog beds as well!
About: Your pets stay in a calm, cozy, home-away-from-home 💖 I have a dedicated pet room with kennels, beds, toys, TV, and a camera for constant monitoring. Hi, I’m Gigi! 🐾 I’ve been independently caring for dogs and cats since I was 18, and animals are truly my safe space. I work evenings in healthcare, so your pets get a calm, structured routine during the day and a cozy, relaxed environment at night. ✨ What makes my care different: • Dedicated pet room (beds, toys, TV, kennels) • Camera-monitored space for safety • Separate areas if needed for comfort • Calm, low-stress environment (no chaos boarding vibes) I’m experienced with multiple pets, different temperaments, and keeping routines consistent so your pet feels secure and happy 💕 I treat every animal like they’re my own — with patience, love, and attention to detail. I work full-time evenings (2:30pm–10:30pm) in healthcare, so mornings and late nights are dedicated to pet care. Pets get morning potty breaks, feeding, playtime, and attention before I leave, and I’m home at night for more care, walks, and wind-down time. My schedule works especially well for pets who are used to a consistent routine and overnight companionship. I provide a safe, calm, and structured environment in my home. I have a separate pet room set up with kennels, beds, toys, food and water dishes, and even a TV for comfort. I also have a camera to monitor pets while I’m at work to ensure they stay safe. I follow each pet’s routine closely, can crate if needed, and always prioritize comfort, cleanliness, and security.
About: Lifelong animal experience – I’ve cared for animals my entire life, not just as a job but as a way of life. • Real dog-owner perspective – With 2 dogs of my own, I understand routines, energy levels, training reinforcement, and emotional needs. • Calm, patient care – Great for shy, anxious, senior, or high-energy dogs who need consistency and understanding. • Individualized attention – I don’t do “one-size-fits-all” care. Walks, play, feeding, and downtime are tailored to your dog. • Trust & reliability – I show up on time, follow instructions closely, and communicate clearly so you can relax while you’re away. • Home-style love – Your dog is treated like family, not a booking. Hi! I’m Shelbie, a lifelong animal lover with experience caring for dogs and cats of all personalities. I live in a peaceful rural area with plenty of space for play, walks, and safe adventures. Your furry friend will get the love, attention, and care they deserve while you’re away! Dog Boarding (In My Home – Female Dogs Only) For the safety and comfort of all pets in my care, I only board female dogs. My Australian Shepherd has a strong personality, and keeping our home harmonious means I cannot accept male dogs. Female pups are always welcome, and they’ll receive lots of love, playtime, and cuddles in a safe, home environment. I work full-time from 8–5, but I’m happy to stop by during my lunch break for local drop-ins to take your sweet guy or girl out for a potty break, walk, or some love. I’m available after 5 PM, all day on Wednesdays, and all weekends. I’m reliable, flexible, and always happy to work with your pet’s routine whenever possible. I care for pets with patience, consistency, and lots of love—whether in my home or yours. While I don’t have a yard yet, I live close to a dog park and provide plenty of walks, playtime, and mental stimulation to keep dogs happy and exercised. I follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, play, and downtime. Safety and comfort always come first, and I make sure pets get individual attention, affection, and enrichment. In your home, I respect your space while ensuring your pet feels secure and relaxed in their familiar environment. I’m attentive, reliable, and treat every pet as if they were my own.
About: Hi! I’m Taylor, and I’ve always had a huge love for animals. I have experience caring for both cats and dogs and I understand just how important it is to know your pet is safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m patient, dependable, and attentive to each pet’s individual personality and routine. Whether your pet loves lots of attention and playtime or prefers having their own space, I’m happy to adjust to what makes them most comfortable. I can help with feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, litter box care, potty breaks, and plenty of love and attention! As a pet owner myself, I know how hard it can be to leave your pet with someone else. I’ll treat your pets with the same kindness and care I would want for my own, and I’m happy to provide updates and photos so you can feel comfortable while you’re away. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your pets! 🐾 I currently work about 38 hours per week, but my schedule still gives me plenty of flexibility for pet care! I work two 7-hour shifts each week, along with an additional 24 hours spread throughout the week. Since I’m regularly in the area and have free time before, after, and between my work commitments, I’m able to fit pet care into my routine easily. I’m happy to work with your pet’s usual schedule whenever possible, whether that means morning or evening visits, feeding, playtime, litter box care, walks, or simply spending some extra time keeping them company. I’ll always communicate my availability ahead of time so you can feel confident that your pet will receive the time and attention they deserve! I currently rent, so I provide pet care in my clients’ homes rather than my own. I believe this can be especially helpful for pets because they’re able to stay in a familiar environment where they feel safe and comfortable. When caring for your pet, I’ll follow any instructions you provide and do my best to keep their normal routine consistent. I’ll make sure they have fresh food and water, a clean and comfortable environment, plenty of attention and playtime, and walks or potty breaks as needed. For cats, I’m also happy to clean litter boxes, provide enrichment and playtime, and give them space if they’re more shy or independent. Safety is very important to me. I’ll be careful with doors, leashes, gates, and anything else necessary to keep your pet secure. I’ll also respect your home and communicate with you throughout each visit. I’m happy to send pictures and updates so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is safe, comfortable, and getting lots of love while you’re away!

Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Wadena. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your walker interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
