About: I’ve loved dogs as long as i can remember, I’ve been around dogs my whole life, had a Labrador Retriever growing up. My passion really began when neighbors would start asking me to dog sit for them. I always knew I wanted to do something with animals (mainly dogs.) a family friend told me about Rover & I immediately knew I had to become a sitter. I am very trustworthy and reliable & easy to reach! I currently do not have any pets in my home which makes me a great sitter if your dog isn’t a fan of other dogs/animals! I’m currently working part time so I have plenty of time to play with your dogs & care for them. & I can take whatever time needed to watch your dogs if you preferred I stay with them 100% You can always count on the fact that your dog is SAFE. If you don’t have a fenced in yard, I will keep your dog leashed unless you say otherwise!

“Kris did a wonderful job taking care of our dog Tommy! She met with us a couple times before we left for our vacation trip to get to know Tommy and his routine. She gave us multiple updates each day on their plan and what was happening. Also took good care of the house! We would not hesitate to book her again and highly recommend to others! :)”

About: I grew up with dogs and as an adult, I have had 3 cats. Sadly they have passed away from old age. In the future, I plan on having another pet, but in the meantime, I can love and care for other people's animals! Friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and take care of their pets. I do work full-time Monday through Friday, but my schedule would be available on weekends and some weekdays after 5:30 PM. Holidays can be an option also. My main values are providing safety, trust and love to your pets with respect to the pet owners. When I am with your pet you will be worry free!

About: “I’m experienced and confident in caring for both dogs and cats, including walking, feeding, and maintaining a clean and safe environment. I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and needs, whether it’s an active dog or a shy or independent cat. I’m reliable, responsible, and focused on making sure every pet feels comfortable and well cared for.” Friendly) “I currently work full-time at Great Clips, but I have enough flexibility in my schedule to take on pet care responsibilities. I enjoy staying active, so dog walking and pet visits fit naturally into my daily routine, and I always make sure I have the time to give each pet proper care and attention.” “I adjust my care based on the specific service, but I always prioritize safety, trust, and a positive environment. I carefully follow feeding, walking, and care instructions, keep spaces clean, and ensure pets are always supervised and secure. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and routines, and I focus on creating a calm, stress-free experience for their pets.”

“Calcifer was great with our senior dog who has some extra needs. He was very kind, caring and you can tell he loves animals. He was also great at communication, always letting us know how our dog was doing and when he was coming/going.”

“She was great with our very anxious dog! He seemed to really warm up to her as the days went on! Left our house even cleaner then we did and even shoveled our driveway. You could tell instantly her comfort and love for animals. I would think of her first if we needed to leave town again!”

About: I have cared for every breed of dog from small terrier to beagle to st Bernard's and pit bulls since the age of 8. I am a lifelong pet person who has cared for both family members pets, my own pets, as well as the pets of friends, neighbors and collies. Worked extensively with dogs, cats, guinea pigs, snakes and fish. I have an incredibly flexible schedule as I work remote and am able to fit in most times of convenience if scheduled ahead of time. I have dependable transportation and can work from anywhere in the twin cities (or country for that matter) if the job called for it. I am a retired military veteran having honorably served 20 years in the MNARNG. I have served both overseas and domestic tours. I am a proud community activist, veteran advocate, and behavioral and cognitive skills trainer. I have degrees in law enforcement and criminal justice, as well as certificates in private security. As I mentioned I have flexibility in my schedule and just need to be notified in advance of when my services are needed. Dog walking I can drop in and provide such service anywhere in the cities, and times are flexible if notified in advance My home has two levels, plenty of space, a balcony and fenced in front yard. I have a backyard as well. The home is clean and can ensure the pets continued safety and comfort. I am willing and able to commute to pet sit in the event of a client working or being out of town. There is a cat in my home who is good with other animals and very friendly himself.

“My pups love Natasha. She asked detailed questions to make sure she and my pups were prepared to spend the day together. My pups have big personalities and can be a little tricky but I knew they were in great hands. Book Natasha! You won't regret it and your furry friend will thank you.”

About: My family dog passed away in 2024, since then I’ve filled my doggy-shaped hole by volunteering at Coco’s Heart (dog rescue) and house/dog sitting for families in my area. I work from home, so I’m able to give your animals their much-deserved attention throughout the day! My experience ranges from young puppies just brought to rescue, teenage dogs, to senior dogs, all needing special attention in their own ways. I am punctual with medications, meals and bathroom breaks. I currently work from home, and while house sitting am able to provide around the clock care. For walks or part-time, my schedule may vary slightly. Maintaining and respecting my client’s home is of upmost importance when caring for pets. Keeping not only their environment clean and safe, but the owners as well is important to what I offer. Whether it’s expected or not, I will leave the place the same, if not better than you left it. I strive for frequent communication and avoid outside environments that may stress pets out.

“Vikki is wonderful! My two dogs truly enjoyed their time with her. She listened to all of the details about my dogs with interest and care, and was happy to see them. I was able to enjoy my day away knowing my pups were in great hands with Vikki!”

About: I’ve been a Nanny for the last 20 years and will dutifully treat your pups with the same care, love and safety as a child. I’m a full time Household manager and have full flexibility with my daily shedule and love to add in doggie walks and visits to help break up long days home alone. I will keep your pets safe, loved and active, while following their normal daily shedule. I’m very attentive and will also freely communicate and share pictures!

About: Hi! I’m Elena. Whether your pet is an easygoing adult dog, a timid kitty, or a gentle senior who just wants a quiet place to nap, I provide calm, attentive, and high-trust care tailored to their normal routine. My animal care background runs deep: 8+ Years of Rescue Experience & Patient Care: I spent eight years volunteering with City Kitties Rescue in DC and The Cats at Longstreet. Through this work, I developed a strong understanding of animal body language, patience with shy pets, and a gentle touch for animals who need a peaceful environment to feel comfortable. Gentle Senior & Easygoing Routine Care: I love spending time with adult and senior pets who enjoy a relaxed pace, predictable routines, lots of affection, or simply lounging on the couch. I grew up with a Peekapoo and trained with the Animal Humane Society on gentle dog handling techniques. Pro Communication & Great Photos: You’ll receive clear, real-time updates and high-quality progress photos during every stay so you always have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and relaxed. Broad Animal Experience: While I focus on adult cats and dogs on Rover, I’ve personally cared for a wide variety of animals throughout my life—from hedgehogs, rabbits, and pocket pets to reptiles (including live feeding). I maintain a peaceful, welcoming environment and treat every pet like family. I’d love to meet you and your companion! My schedule is very flexible. I work part-time and remotely, which means I am home for the majority of the day and can give your pet plenty of individual attention, frequent potty breaks, and low-stress companionship. Because I work from my peaceful home environment, I can easily stick to your pet’s normal daily rhythm—whether that’s a midday backyard break, regular feeding times, or just having a cozy lap available while I work. Whether caring for pets in my own home or visiting yours, safety, comfort, and respect for routine are my top priorities. In My Home (Boarding): I use a low-stress, step-by-step transition process for feline guests. Just like my rescue fosters, visiting cats start out in a cozy, dedicated space (like a private room) with all their essentials until they feel confident enough to explore the rest of the house at their own pace. For dogs, I maintain a secure, calm environment and ensure my backyard is fully supervised during outdoor breaks. In Your Home (Drop-Ins): I follow your exact instructions to keep your pet’s routine seamless. My visits typically begin with fresh food, water, and litter/potty care. Once their primary needs are met, I spend the remaining time providing gentle affection, low-key play, or simply quiet companionship—always ensuring your home is kept secure and key logistics are handled with complete accountability.

About: Started as a favor to friends and family, and evolved into a pet hotel of sorts. We help “ferrents” in need as well as any human needing safe and loving accommodations for their fur babies. We provide the best level of care during their stay. My partner and I honor dedicated walks, play time, as many cuddles as desired, and will follow strict food and med schedules. We take the responsibility very seriously and treat all animals as we would our own. I provide Rover services full-time. My partner has a flexible job and can fill any necessary gaps. He typically works 10-6 p.m. Monday thru Friday. We do not have children or animals of our own. Our backyard is fenced for added protection, but we love to take fur babies on walks. We have a ferret-proofed home (although they passed last year) which means anything concerning for a small animal has been eliminated. Because we do not have pets of our own, time and attention will be dedicated to any pet in our care.

About: Hi, I’m Maria! I’m a passionate and reliable pet caregiver with years of experience in dog walking, dog sitting, and cat sitting. I treat every pet as if they were my own, ensuring they receive plenty of love, attention, and care while you’re away. Whether it’s energetic walks, cozy snuggles, or catering to unique needs, I’m here to keep your furry friends happy, safe, and well-cared for. Your peace of mind and your pet’s happiness are my top priorities, and I can’t wait to meet you both! I can fit any pet care into my schedule to whatever the customer needs with their schedule or their animals and I love to help anytime people need I take great care of my cat in my home. I always change his litter and I always make sure he eats at the correct times and I also give him lots of toys.
