Pet Sitting & Drop Ins in West 7th, Saint Paul, MN

“This was our first experience using Rover. Thank you for making it so easy. Macy S was the best! She was so polite and conscientious. She sent the cutest pictures of our cats warming up to her and it made us feel relieved they were safe so we could enjoy our time away from them. Overall very positive experience. Would use Rover again.”

“Abbie was wonderful with my kitten Ivy! She sent pictures, videos, and went above and beyond caring for my girl. I felt relaxed and comfortable leaving my cat in good hands while I was away. Would recommend and book again in the future!”

About: I have been part of a dog family since I was 9 years old. Several friends and neighbors have used me as a repeat sitter - I even took care of little doggies in diapers :) now I have several years of pet care experience through Rover. I also have my own dog, a teenage Aussie named Witten, who I’ve cared for the last couple years but who is currently being fostered with a friend who’s home is more suitable for him during my transition to the cities. When I care for your dog, I am communicative and will make sure you receive regular updates (unless you want me to leave you alone!) I’m not afraid to ask a question to make sure I’m always doing the best for your pet. I will go above and beyond, cleaning up trash, vomit, accidents, as needed. I want to work with you to give you the most peace of mind possible that your pet is in good hands. I’m recently moved to the cities and in the job search now, so I’ve got lots of flexibility to care for your pup on their schedule, and/or to stay with them for a meaningful amount of time during the day. My priority is making sure your pet remains feeling safe and cared for while you’re gone. I stay in tune with your dog’s needs so if they need to be calmed, or played with, or cuddled, I’m there for them. My approach is to help them feel loved while also making sure they know I am in charge so they can be safe with me.

“Elizabeth was very communicative during her check-ins, and the cats took to her very well! Even my shy kitty who usually hides, came out to say hello! Thank you, Elizabeth!”

“Sharron is SO great with our dog Rhubarb! She visits Barb right on time, spends quality time with her, and always sends the sweetest updates and photos that put our minds at ease and show she really cares about Barb! We’re so grateful to have Sharron in Barb’s life and we appreciate her so much!”

About: Growing up with a family dog and currently sharing my home with three wonderful cats has given me a deep understanding of animal behavior and needs. I am very patient and kind, and I treat every animal with the respect and love they deserve. Whether it's a leisurely walk, playtime, or simply providing companionship during a home visit, I'll ensure your pet's comfort and well-being. While I work a full-time hybrid schedule, my primary work location is from home, providing me with significant flexibility throughout the day. I am eager to accommodate your pet's needs, and I encourage you to contact me to discuss your requirements and scheduling preferences, ensuring we find a time that works for both of us. While I will be providing services at your home, I believe it's important to mention that I am a calm and respectful person, and will treat your home with care.

“Samantha was the perfect person to care for our 16 year old Doxie while we were away. He was experiencing high anxiety during these few days and Samantha put my mind at ease knowing she was there. She was communicative, gave us updates, and was flexible with our schedule.”

“Sarah was great! I was a first-time Rover customer as my senior grampa cat needed to have daily medicine during our summer vacation, and Sarah was able to drop in and get him what he needed. She was very communicative and easygoing, but most importantly, she made sure my fur friends were alive and well!”

About: Have taken care of dogs and cats my entire life! Started professionally caring for cats and dogs about a year ago. Absolutely love doing it!! I currently work a full-time day job but have a lot of evening and weekend flexibility. Available during the week starting after 5pm and weekends I am available all day. I follow all the rules the client sets for how they want their pet taken care of when in their own home. I always ask questions if unsure.

“Catherine did a great job with my cats. I would highly recommend her and will use her again.”

“Penny has been great. Norbu seems to really like her, she was very punctual and appeared to enjoy what she is doing. I would definitely use Penny again.”

“Lacie and our dog Finn became fast friends despite his anxiety as a cattle dog. She was able to understand his body language well which allowed him to warm up to her and prevent him from reacting negatively against troublesome situations. With both excellent handling and patience, she excelled in caring for him while we were away.”

About: I grew up around 4 dogs (golden retrievers and a French bulldog) and a cat, and helped to feed, walk, brush, & generally care for them from a young age. This includes helping to care for 11 puppies when I was 10! My dogs were some of my best friends, and I have a good understanding of how to communicate with and train them. All in all I have a massive respect and love for animals of all sorts and I always treat them with kindness. I'm also comfortable with elderly dogs-- currently my family owns an elderly, special needs Frenchie. I currently work full time as a planner for the Minnesota government. Accordingly, I am available between 6 - 7:30 am and after 6 pm Monday --> Friday, with more availability for lunchtime drop-ins on Mondays and Fridays. My availability most weekends is very flexible. I prefer to operate on a drop in basis. I am a responsible adult who enjoys a quieter lifestyle-- I prefer to spend my evenings and weekends working out (hiking, biking, swimming), going to bed early, and cooking good food. My friends, colleagues, and relatives have trusted me to care for their pets in the past.

“Kelsey was absolutely great! She sent me updates several times over the drop in visits, and sent me videos, and pictures. She did wonderful with my June Bug. Look forward to having her continue drop ins in the future!”

“Paige was wonderful with our kitties. They were happy when we returned, so we could tell they'd gotten lots of snuggles. And she pilled our senior cat twice a day, which isn't the easiest task. We'll definitely reach out to her again!”

G E.

“Brenna went above and beyond for my cats. My kitties aren’t the most approachable with strangers but she earned their trust and when I returned from my trip both kitties had none of the separation anxiety and stress I usually observe when I return. Brenna gave me daily updates with pictures and videos and I felt she kept up on communicating how things were going. I will be recommending her to friends and family that live in the area.”

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs and cats since I was little. We always had a family dog and I adopted my own cats as soon as I could. I am reliable and called upon by friends and relatives to take care of their pets because I’m known for my genuine love for all animals. Pets are family and deserve to be treated with respect, patience, compassion and love since they cannot speak for themselves. You can rest assured that I will provide a warm and safe environment for them when you book with me. I am currently in between jobs and have plenty of time to devote to your pets! I can play with them, walk them and simply keep them company and give them lots of cuddles if they wish :) Once I start my new job my schedule with certainly change but for now I am open and flexible to working around your schedule. In your home I will adhere to your house rules and whatever makes your pets feel the most at home. I’d love to set up a meet and greet as well prior to make sure your pet trusts me and that I am a good fit to them. I am always aware that animals have their own history and backgrounds that may make them weary to new people coming into their home. I promise to do everything I can to make them feel safe and comfortable while they are with me.
