“Jenna did a fantastic job taking care of our two kitties while we were away for 6 days. I really appreciated the recaps of each visit with photos! We felt like our cats were safe and well cared for, and that made it easy to enjoy our vacation. We have one cat with some extra litter box quirks and Jenna had no trouble dealing with that, which was really awesome. This was our first time using Rover and it was a great experience for sure!”
About: currently working under a boarding facility for my vet tech license!! had animals with medical issues in the past so i’ve dealt with that care. i worry about my own baby’s health 24/7 so trust i will worry about your baby too. early mornings work pretty well for me. around 5am to 12pm. afternoons and late evenings work best, typically after 6 into late. weekends are completely free. if there is any safety concerns, I will make sure to ask for your opinion or run down on your rules! please do not hesitate to mention anything!
About: My dogs have always been very high needs growing up, so I have a lot of experience working with different diets, medications, and needs. I'm an athlete, so I can take them out for long periods of time to get exercise as needed, which can be really helpful for hyperactive dogs who have to be cooped up during the day. I'm also entirely capable of caring for senior dogs, I can take things at their pace and make sure they're comfortable and happy. I am currently a full time college student, but I have a lot of open time either between classes or after them. I commute to the Twin Cities from the suburbs, so I can easily travel wherever I am needed to be able to check in on or take care of your furry friends. Being in the cities with my own car I can take dogs out for walks around the lakes or down some of the trails nearby so they (and I) can get some proper exercise before my classes. When caring for pets, I always make sure they are getting plenty of time to move around, especially if I'm just dropping in to check on them, but regardless of the need. I like to keep a checklist of what I need to get done, as well as just having a bit of time to play with or pet them. I can take pets out for walks on foot or with my roller skates, which lets me go longer distances with them. I make sure to clean up any messes I might make, putting everything back as I found it and keeping things nice and tidy for when you get home again. I'm confident staying in new places, and can make sure everything stays safe in your home or space during my time there.
About: I’ve taken care of many dogs for a few years for friends, family, and neighbors who relied on me to walk them and feed them and just keep them company I am currently available anytime during the week so I have plenty of time Monday through Friday to hang with your pups and bring them on walks I have a back yard and I have a dog that will give your pups some company that loves to go on walks and play
“Tina is an amazing pet sitter! She took care of my two cats, who are so sweet but also high maintenance and she did so well! They both had accidents and she cleaned them, plus set up treats and puzzles for them which I appreciated so much. I am most definitely reaching out anytime I need a sitter, thank you Tina!”
“Natalie is awesome! She is very patient with our shy girl and went out of her way to help our anxious Socks. I am so glad our Socks also warmed up to her after a few days. Socks looked very happy when we came back. I can see that Natalie took great care of her. We are very lucky to have Natalie's help this holiday week.”
About: What sets me apart is the care and attention I give to every pet. I treat each animal like family and take the time to learn their individual personality, routine, and needs. I’m patient, dependable, and comfortable caring for pets of different ages and temperaments, including energetic puppies and senior pets who may need a little extra patience and attention. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re in my care. I work part time, and my kids are all over 18, so my schedule is fairly flexible. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine, and I’m able to give pets the time, attention, and care they need. I enjoy having animals as part of my day and am happy to work with each pet’s individual routine, whether that means morning visits, afternoon check-ins, or evening care. I care for every pet as if they were my own. When visiting a client’s home, I follow their normal routine as closely as possible, making sure they have fresh food and water, a clean litter box, playtime, and plenty of love and attention. I’m respectful of your home and make sure everything is clean and secure before I leave. I also enjoy sending updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away.
“Alex was so wonderful while taking care of our sweet boy Charlie. She took great care of him while we were away for the week. She sent great updates, responded to any questions quickly and so we were able to relax on our vacation knowing he was happy and in great hands. We will definitely be rebooking in the future. Thank you Alex!”
“Whitney was absolutely wonderful with our four cats! They have a few extra needs, including medications and one who needs to be kept separate from the others, and Whitney handled everything so attentively and confidently. She went above and beyond to make sure they were well cared for, gave them plenty of attention and pets, and even fixed our microchip feeders when they were giving us trouble. She was incredibly sweet, kind, and communicative throughout her visits, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that she genuinely cared about our cats and their individual needs. We would absolutely hire Whitney again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”
“Shawntil was great. She followed my cat's care instructions, she was quick to respond, wrote updates, and posted very cute pictures daily. I'd trust Shawntil to care for my cat again. I would recommend her if you're looking for drop-in cat visits.”
“Ashley took great care of our two cats! She was extremely communicative, dedicated time and attention to making sure they were active, and made sure they exhibited normal eating/drinking habits while we were traveling. Loved the pictures as well!”
About: I grew up on a hobby farm in Wisconsin and am familiar with a wide range of animals. Loosely skilled in walking training and puppy potty training. Have watched many dogs and have many trusted reviews from TrustedHousesitter. Very familiar with large sized dogs as I grew up with St. Bernard’s and I am very comfortable handling larger pups. I currently work completely remote and can be flexible with my days. Ideally mornings, lunch breaks and evenings would be ideal, but can also come work from your house for the entirety of the day if needed and would be able to take frequent walk breaks I truly have such a passion for animals but currently travel too much to have one of my own. In this to make a little bit of side cash, but also truly to get some pet therapy time for myself as well. Your pet will be very loved, your space respected and instructions clearly fulfilled
About: I have either lived or worked with animals from as young as I can remember. Growing up we had an abundance of different animals such as cats, dogs, fish, hamsters, and more. Since being out on my own I have raised two puppies and a kitten and adopted a cat as well. I trained both puppies myself and am also familiar with caring for senior animals as well as giving medications and caring for animals that may have health issues or sensitivities. I volunteered at cat shelters all throughout college and worked in pet stores for multiple years so I come equipped with lot's of knowledge on feeding, walking, bathing, cleaning up after, and caring for pets. I have watched over many friends and family’s pets over the years and I treat all animals with the same love, respect, and care that I give to my own. I have plenty of time and flexibility to help care and play with your pets throughout the week! I have the most availability in the mornings through the afternoons but can be flexible for evenings if needed! Both weekdays and weekends work for me. I am comfortable following your preference on how you like to keep your pet safe in your home. If I see anything concerning I will always communicate this but my main goal is keeping your pet safe and healthy in the ways that you feel most comfortable with.I know every animal may be treated differently and my top priority is to care for them while also following their normal routine as much as possible.
“As my first experience Rover, I am thankful I found Laura. She agreed to do a quick meet and greet with my two kitties before hand as we had had some behavioral issues in the past and I wanted to make sure it was a good fit. She was accommodating to our schedule and the pictures she sent of their playtime during her drop in visits showed us that they were well cared for. I will definitely be using her services in the future.”

Our Home & Yard: Pups who stay with us get to enjoy a spacious lakeside backyard with plenty of room to run, sniff, explore, and relax. 🌿🐾 The yard is partially fenced, with an opening for lake access, so all outdoor time is fully supervised. There are shady spots for downtime between play sessions. In the summer months, dogs can swim in the lake (with owner permission only). Just let us know if your pup is a swimmer and has your OK to go in. Although I will be the primary care taker, my wife and I work from home full time Monday through Friday. We love to spend our free time taking care of our sweet boy Koda who is a 5 year old labradoodle. He gets along great with other dogs and loves friends. I have a home in a quiet community which is fenced. This allows the dogs to run freely outside for potty breaks and exercise for the pups.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - West Coon Rapids
Lisa was wonderful with our elderly cat! She was always punctual, dependable, and incredibly gentle and attentive. Knowing she was caring for our cat gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. We’re truly grateful for her thoughtful care and would wholeheartedly recommend Lisa to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving pet sitter!
While Kevin was watching our kitties, our automatic scooping litterbox broke with the scooper in the middle of the box. Kevin attempted to troubleshoot the box, and when it didn't work, he found a new bin for the cats to use until we came home. He even completed an extra visit to try and do troubleshooting on the box. He was also very personable during our initial visit.
Sarah once again took great care of our fur-baby Smokey! He is an aging cat with special diet and supplement needs. Sarah is great with him and we can have a great vacation without worrying about him! She even did a couple dishes I left in the sink as we were running out of the house! We will definitely rebook with her again.
Jo Yi did a fantastic job with my cat Pesto! She was very communicative and shared updates and pictures of my cat during her visits. She followed the care instructions I left for her and my cat loved spending time with Jo Yi. Grateful to have a reliable sitter to watch her while I was away - thank you!

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter 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.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

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 sitter 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 sitter 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 sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
