We were lucky to find Ms Holly and family. She was quick to respond to messages and questions. Very kind and loving 🥰 family. Our pup was well taken care of and you could tell they genuinely enjoyed watching her. Will definitely look forward to working with them again.

Our dog had a great time with Kasandra and their dog. Kasandra gave me updates with pics and videos which was great! She was flexible with times and easy to work with.

Baylea was able to take Boomer last minute on a holiday weekend, and we are so grateful! He came home exhausted, so I know he had a great time!

About: I have three cats and I promise to love your cats, dogs, and other pets like my own. I have a lot of experience walking dogs and doing sittings. I have cared for cats and dogs both personally and professionally. You can expect me to treat your pet(s) just as I treat mine, with just as much love and affection. I will make sure they had a long enough walk and follow any specific instructions I am given as I care for your pets. Not only will I walk your dogs but I will do anything additional you need me to before I leave for the day. You can expect nothing less than love to be given. It will be a pleasure walking and caring for your pets! I am currently a stay at home Mom so my availability is very flexible. I am able to do drop in visits and dog walks right now during any time of the day. I offer drop ins and dog walking right now. I make sure that all of the pets needs are taken care of before I leave. I will love your pets like my own and give them plenty of exercise/love.

About: I've been dog sitting on and off since my 20's. Most were co-workers and family. I walked, bathed, brushed and given medicine, both orally and topical as required. I'm currently retired and can dog sit 7 days a week with advance notice. I can also day board as early as 7am and pick up as late as 6pm. If different hours are needed I can be flexible. I have a very large home where your dog can roam freely inside. However, I don't have a fenced in yard. I do have a secure tie line attached to my home. Your dog will never be left outside by themselves as I will be there with them.

About: Hello, I have over 30 years experience as a professional pet sitter. I provide overnight pet care service for both cats and dogs for Minneapolis, Saint Paul and surrounding suburbs. At this time, I only provide overnights due to living out of the area, but I will be resuming full services again prior to 2027. I am a full time professional pet sitter. I will take care of anything you want or need. Contact me anytime to schedule a meeting. At the meeting, you can show me your routine and make sure that you feel comfortable with me…But more importantly, your animal(s) love me!! Initially, having a stranger in your home may be difficult. I understand and I will try to make it as comfortable as possible. I am a trustworthy pet sitter. I stay to myself and the areas I am allotted. I do not allow or have company in your home nor do any types of behaviors that would be deemed as inappropriate. At our initial meeting, I provide my personal contact information so you can additionally feel secure knowing that you are able to contact me or others no matter what time. I do my best to assure to make sure that your time away is as stress-free as possible by providing regular updates and photos. An overnight stay for your pet includes 24-hour care, unlimited walks with cleanup, playtime, feeding, petting, love and anything else your pet needs! I reside in your home during your absence, protect your home and care for your pet(s), bring my own food and leave for 1-2 hours every day or every other day for breaks, shower etc. If you have both dog(s) AND a puppy - I do not charge for BOTH the puppy rate on top of the dog rate. Also, if you have both dogs AND cats, I do not charge for each additional cat. We can work out the final payment details through Rover at our first meeting.

About: I have a 11 month old puppy that I have started training and taking care of since 8 weeks old. I also talk him on regular walks, and bathe him. My oldest dog is almost 3 and I have also have had him since he was 8 weeks old. I have watched and walked other dogs for friends and family overnight and for extended periods. I could pet care in the summer almost every day, since I am a teacher. Some things may come up, but I have a pretty flexible schedule. I would prefer to care for pets in my home during the day to make the pet more comfortable. I am able to play with, feed, bathe, walk, etc. I have a fenced in backyard! I would love if you are ok with my 11 month aussiedoodle came with on walks or house sitting.

About: I have babysat or taken care of dogs/animals ever since I was a child. To this day I will take in pets that are hurt or homeless until they are rehabilitated or find a good home. I have experience with all ages and stages of canine. Experience training dogs, nurturing them back to health, birthing, caring for seniors and special needs, bottle feeding babies, and much more. Let me know what your special needs are! I homestead and care for livestock on our farm. I have a pretty open availability. My largest chores here are completed early morning and late evening, giving me opportune time to be available during the days for checking in on, playing with and feeding, walking or housing your pup. I do not crate animals unless specified by owner. They will hang out with my family and I like they are our own if they are staying with us. I will follow and respect your rules for your pet in your homes and mine. We can work together with any special needs. I have an incredibly flexible schedule which allows me plenty of time for drop-in visits, doggie day sitting or to go on walks with your incredible pup. I will follow and abide by the rules you have in your home for pup. During our meet and greet we will go over all expectations, needs and rules for your doggie.
