About: Hi I'm Connie! I've been rescuing and caring for dogs for over 25 years, but have been an animal lover my whole life. I spend the majority of my time working with dogs, I understand them very well and love being able to share my passion to help others. I love spending time with dogs, and getting to know them, and I am well educated and rounded when it comes to their needs and wants. I have lived in Faribault MN practically my whole life and know the town, it's people, and the surrounding area very well. I have worked with the local rescues for the past 14 years and dedicate my life to giving every dog the best chance at finding their loving forever home.
About: With 18 years of caring for dogs, cats, and a variety of farm animals, I truly love getting to know each animal’s unique personality. Whether it’s a playful pup, a cuddly cat, or farm animals that thrive on routine and gentle handling, I’m dedicated to making every animal feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. From feeding and daily care to keeping their spaces clean and cozy, I treat every animal like part of the family. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pets and farm animals are in kind, reliable hands while you’re away. As a stay-at-home mom with a naturally flexible schedule, pet care fits easily into my daily and weekly routine. I’m home throughout the day, which allows me to provide consistent attention, regular check-ins, and reliable feeding or walking times. Whether it’s stopping in for midday visits, keeping up with routine care, or offering extra time and companionship when pets need it, I can adjust my schedule to match each animal’s needs. My open availability means pets get dependable, unrushed care—and owners get peace of mind knowing someone responsible is always close by. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routines consistent and making them feel safe and comfortable. In my home, pets enjoy a calm, clean environment with plenty of attention, playtime, and regular feeding and potty schedules. When I care for pets in a client’s home, I follow their normal routines closely—feeding the same foods, maintaining familiar walk times, keeping litter boxes or living areas clean, and giving plenty of affection and company. I always make sure pets get the right balance of exercise, rest, and reassurance so they feel relaxed and well cared for, no matter where they are.

I am trusted to enter their homes, as well as have their pets in my home.
About: I have had and taken care of dogs for over 30 years! I have always been a dog lover in particular but also have plenty of experience caring for cats as well. I work as a PCA weekdays 9:30-4:30 but have the flexibility to do drop in visits with my client during my work hours. I believe that our pets are family members and always treat them as such.

About: I/we are very loving all around. I go to the pet level. I put myself in your shoes and feel the same about how I would want my pet treated and cared for. I have many years and experience in pet sitting and in pet therapy, rescue and fostering. My friends and family trust me completely to take care of their animals. Myself and my husband and side kick Bob, love all kinds of fur babies and decided to turn our passion into a business, where both of us have the pleasure of meeting you, your pets, and doing drop in visits in your home. Mostly, we will treat and love your fur babies just like they are our own. I will make visiting your home and your pets a top priority. I have a lot of flexibility in my schedule to meet your needs. I have a safe and clean environment. I have plenty of toys and cat treats. I have lots of playtime and keep a regular routine for them. I get down to their level and give them lots of love and attention, as I would with your pets as well. I also have a husband who is a great cat daddy and is a wonderful wingman and he loves animals including dogs as much as I do. We would treat our pet sitting responsibilities seriously, as well as respecting your home and pets for pet sitting.
About: HELLO! I have been taking care of all kinds of dogs from pups to senior pets who have special needs. I have done stuff like this ever since I was in middle school. I am very flexible with my time. I do have a cat allergy but that won’t stop me from that either! I’m always here to help you’re best friend 😊 Im very flexible with my schedule for a couple months! I can do early mornings to late nights. I’m always able to help with anything! I’m very detail oriented and need straightforward instructions in order to properly care for a pet. The more straightforward the instructions the better! I treat any pet as if they were my own. Maybe a chance to spoil with my special frozen pet friendly watermelon slush for the hot summer days? Or a little trip to get a pup cup? My dogs are spoiled and I miss them so much so this would be a win-win for the both of us 🤣
About: I have pet sat for family members and friends. I also have worked at Wag’n Wash and have a lot of experience with all different types of breeds and temperaments. I know how to properly handle and deal with most if not all situations. I am home for the summer from college in the middle of May, and after I’m home I will be free most of the week with some errands and stuff I have to do in between some days. So I will be able to house sit during the week or just take them on walks or check up on them, depending on what the client wants to do. I work weekends but am able to take breaks and stop by the house if needed. I will insure all the care is specialized to each animal and what service I provide for them. With each pet I will come up with a specific care plan for them and review it with the owner to insure they get a say in what happened while they are gone.
About: I have 5 amazing dogs of my own, 1 pitbull, 2 American Eskimo mini and 2 Pomeranians. I had 2 liter of puppies from my dogs (1st liter was 10 pups, 2nd liter was 5 pups) and was able to raise them well for their furever home. I run a lot, so if your dog needs to exercise, you can count me in. Or simply needs a rest day, or any kind of special needs, I’m your girl. I work full time and have my own babies to care for, but I’m a super dog mom so I’m pretty flexible and prepared for anything. With my own experiences of owning 5 dogs, and raising 15 puppies, I feel like that should speak for itself. I do have a fenced in yard, I love dogs and I want them to be happy while they're with me or their own homes.
About: I have over 5 years of experience caring for dogs of various breeds and ages. I'm a beginner at administering medications and have intermediate experience working with special needs dogs. I provide attentive, compassionate care tailored to each pet's unique needs I take care of my high-energy dog daily, which has taught me the importance of providing consistent exercise, mental stimulation, and a structured routine. Caring for an active pet has prepared me to handle dogs with similar energy levels and needs, ensuring they stay happy and well-cared for. In my home, I provide a safe and welcoming environment for pets, complete with regular exercise, playtime, and a cozy space to relax. I maintain a consistent routine to help them feel at ease and follow any specific instructions from owners, such as feeding schedules or medication needs. When caring for pets in my client's home, I prioritize keeping their routine intact, ensuring their comfort in a familiar environment. I treat their home with respect and provide updates to owners so they can feel confident their pets are in good hands.
About: I’m a remote worker who has been lucky enough to love and care for my own cat, dog, hamster, and horse, as well as numerous other critters in kennels, barns, and animal shelters. I work remotely, so my time is very flexible. I’m happy to drop in for a visit or walk any time of day, rain, blizzard, or shine! I live in a quiet house with an eleven-year-old Miniature Schnauzer who loves playing tug-of-war and snuggling with his furry buddies. When I’m working with a pet, I always play off of the animal’s behavior and respect their boundaries. The health, safety, and cleanliness of your pet are my top priorities.
“Yascha has been doing regular walks with our dogs for a few weeks now. Dogs are super excited when he arrives. Yascha has been very responsive and has been accommodating to all requests (harness type, protective dog clothing in inclimate weather, wiping dogs feet etc). Would definitely recommend Yascha!”
About: I have four dogs of various sizes who have lived with my family for years and have a variety of needs and preferences. I have experience caring for senior dogs (our 11-year-old, Gonzo, who has arthritis and hips dysplasia, and our 10-year-old, Roxy, who suffers from severe anxiety), as well as young dogs, as we adopted three of our four as puppies. I'm taking a gap year from college, so I have all of the time in the world to care for your pets and I don't mind staying all day or overnight if needed. I've moved a lot, so I've petproofed quite a few houses at this point, and I'm always on the lookout for things that may pose a danger to pets, and I'll always rather be safe than sorry. As a rule I will always prioritize a pet's health and comfort over convenience.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 3,627 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Waterford. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
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 Waterford. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Waterford.
Got specific details you'd like the dog walker to include? Message them in the app before your dog’s walk begins.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every walker on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Waterford. On Rover:
- 92% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
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 use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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. Most pet parents and walkers on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement walker.
