“Hound has been great with our dogs and they seem relaxed and happy when we get home. Manages the needs of our very old husky and young border collie mix very well so they both get the attention and exercise they need.”


“i just moved to the area and was nervous to use rover for my 5 month, high energy dog. however, delany was awesome with my dog, river, and made this a great experience. she let me know when she got to my house, and when she left. she kept me informed and updated on how river was doing & gave me piece of mind while i was at work. she was flexible and accommodating & she is great at communicating. 10/10 would recommend delany if you’re looking for someone to care for your furry friend! 🐶🐾”


About: My name is Emma. I've lived with and loved animals my whole life! I am currently a mom to a crazy little Westie Pom mix and a huge orange tabby cat. I live an active lifestyle so if you have a dog like mine with tons of energy who loves to run, I can run with them! If you need someone to walk/run, play with, feed, or just hangout with your pets, I would love to help! I work from home M-F and have a flexible schedule, so I can even work from your house if your fur babies just need company! I grew up with an escape artist dog, so I am very careful and conscious of safety. I am a pro at dog-proofing countertops and providing safe mental stimulation when leaving a pup alone!

“Destinee was responsive and took great care of Nemo and the house while we were out of town! Our dog loves to play with Destinee. We appreciated the updates she gave us during her stay. Would highly recommend her services.”


About: My entire childhood my aunt who lived with us, bred toy poodles. So, caring for puppies to dogs is my specialty. From feeding to walks, snuggles and play, I do it all with love and care. Since having children, we have discussed fostering dogs and we found this would be the best way to love on some dogs and make an income as a stay-at-home mom of two. I am a stay-at-home mom, so we are available mostly all the time other than drop off and Pickup from school, and can move commitments around fairly easily. I have a fenced in yard, and two young children to run around and play with your fur baby, walk with them and help feed them. We live in a quiet neighborhood with a lot of running space along walking paths.

About: I’ve had pets since I was young! I currently have my own dog who I raised alone, she is perfect and loves other dogs/cats :) I have multiple days off- so able to be flexible and in the home most of the time with your pet! They would never go more than 4 hours without going potty :) We live in an apartment- so your pet will only be walked or they will play in our fenced in dog park area. They will never be unattended :)

About: I have grown up taking care of Chow Chows! Friends and neighbors have also counted on me to look after there pets. Let me know if I can help you out as well! I'm currently working a part-time job so I have plenty of available time to look after your pets! My job depends on the weather but regardless I'll do my best to fit your schedule. I live in a pet friendly neighborhood with lots of room for excercise! However, depending on your pets personality they can also just lay around a comfortable yard.


About: I have grown up with dogs all my life and now have two of my own. I will be a great sitter because I have animal training experience and can work with behavior issues. I am a certified professional bird trainer and I am working towards becoming a certified dog trainer. I have also taken several animal training workshops! I believe in positive reinforcement training and building a trusting relationship with every animal I work with. Animal training with positive methods is very important to me and I look forward to working with you on any problems you may have with your dog or just continuing the good behavior your dog already has. I also have several enrichment ideas for any dogs that may seem bored or have too much energy. Have other pets at home? No problem! I have experience with cats, small mammals, parrots and raptors, and even a little experience with reptiles.

About: I have cared for many dogs over the years. I love taking our Mokes to meet other dogs and exercise areas to meet new pups!

Throwing a ball and long walks are what every dog loves, so let me help you with your busy schedule! I’m currently working full time during the day, most weekdays. I am available evenings, on the weekends and most all holidays! I can be very flexible with last minute needs. I have one very friendly chocolate lab, that loves to have new playmates! I can also easily crate your pup, if that’s what you prefer. We love to take walks to the nearby park and play fetch. I also like to watch animals in their own environment if that is where they are most comfortable!

About: I’ve been taking care of animals my entire life, from our family pets, to helping lambs on the local farms, to years of work as a veterinary technician, and full circle to teaching my kids these same skills. If you’re looking for an experienced veterinary professional to help look after your furry family while you’re away, you need look no further. I specialize in caring for pets with chronic medical conditions and multiple pet households. I’m based locally in Rochester, MN and cat travel daily multiple times as needed to suit clients needs. I’m currently in a remote work job with very flexible hours and can adjust my day as needed to support you. I come prepared with treats and extra leashes as needed. I drive a reliable wagon that can transport your pup around and take them to their favorite dog park or nature walk.

About: Hello!! New to Rover :) I have been dog sitting for 8 years along with having many family dogs growing up. I have my very own fur baby that recently turned 2 years old. Working part time leaves me with a pretty open schedule on my days off. Thursday- Saturday I’m usually exploring outside with my fur baby and would love to help you care for yours!:) I consider myself to be very caring, reliable, and high energy. I will always do everything in my power to make sure your dog has a great time while in my care.

About: I grew up having dogs and cats. I have had small and large breed dogs, I love the joy and loyalty that an animal can bring to a home. I currently have 2 dogs, Lily, a 5 year old Australian shepherd, and Sprocket, 9 year old schnauzer-Pomeranian male. My dogs love to play and make new friends, I understand how hard it gets to find reliable care for your pets when you want to go on vacation or something else is going on, I’d be more than happy to help you out when needed! I’m currently working full time but I’m always open on weekends. My schedule is very flexible so don’t hesitate to contact me if you have any questions. We have a fenced in backyard, we'll always use a leash if we go on walks with your dogs. We have cameras in our home as well.

About: I have owned dogs for the majority of my life but also friended a couple cats as well 🙂 I love them all! I currently work a full time job that requires 10 hour days four days a week but I do have time in the a.m. before work and p.m. after work to care for your pet. I am more than happy to check in on your pets - take your dog for a walk and enjoy some play time. I will treat them like one of my own - I absolutely love all animals! I work four 10 hour days at Mayo Clinic and can care for pets before or after work and any time on days off. On my days off I am more flexible for multiple visits. I love detailed instructions so I can best care for your furchildren. I will feed them, walk them and clean up after them as needed.

About: I have several years of hands-on experience caring for animals, including my own dog of 4+ years and pet sitting for family with large breeds like Boxers and Pitbulls. I’m confident with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, and I always focus on calm, attentive care. I’ve also owned small pets like guinea pigs and mice, so I understand the importance of being gentle and detail-oriented. No matter the animal, I treat each one with patience, respect, and genuine care—just like they’re my own. I live with and help care for cats—feeding, refreshing water, cleaning litter, giving treats, and playing with them daily. We also regularly visit a friend with dogs and cats, so being around and caring for animals is part of my everyday life. I’m comfortable, attentive, and genuinely enjoy spending time with all kinds of pets. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine consistent, their environment clean, and their energy positive. I’ll make sure they’re fed and have fresh water, give them any needed walks or playtime, and provide comfort and attention so they feel safe while you’re away. I’m experienced with both small and large breeds, strong dogs, and more fragile pets, so I adapt my care to fit each animal’s needs and personality. I treat every home with respect and every pet like family—calm, dependable, and always with genuine care.

“Nug and Bean had a lot of fun and were super tired when they got back from their 30 minute walk. Olivia was on time to pick them up and flexible when I asked if she could come a bit earlier than the reservation I had made. She was super nice and the dogs were comfortable with her right away, they left the house without even looking back once, lol. Will be reaching out to her again for another walk soon!”


About: I grew up around dogs, 5 German shepherds I learned to care for and love while my Mother was away. German shepherds need a lot of care and attention as they are power breeds. It gave me the education to be able to handle any situation. I currently have 2 dogs, that are well behaved and know so many tricks! I dont have kids but I treat them like my own! I beleive routine is most important in taking care of a dog. If you stick to a healthy one your dogs will be happy and satisfied:):)

I’ve always lived in households with pets growing up and at one time had as many as three cats and two dogs. My step mother is a certified vet tech and I spent time as a middle schooler helping care for animals that boarded at the animal hospital she worked at.

Michael O.
“Michael has always taken care of our dogs before Rover came to be. He never received money from us because he enjoyed being around our dogs so much. Our dogs always would wait to see him in the morning and evening when he would come to walk our dogs. Michael always had a caring, responsible, love for our dogs, and I know our dogs knew it too. Sadly, our dogs have past, but when we run into Michael he always brings up so many loving memories of them.”
