“Sammie is fantastic! Trustworthy, responsible, and loving. My 2 cats connected with her right away and I was completely confident leaving them in her care. She is great to send updates, photos, and videos! If you’re looking for someone you can count on to care for your four legged babies, Sammie will be perfect for you!”

On top of looking after them, she was able to do some miscellaneous things that came about due to certain circumstances. It really give you a peace of mind when you can rely on someone to look after your fur babies. Thanks Kasandra!”

About: Hi my name is Kari and I've been taking care of my dogs for 11 years. I have two dogs. I have a little Morkie and a lab/aussie mix named Sammy and Daisy they are both fixed and have all their shots. I live with my family my husband and my daughter Shelly and my son Noah who is almost 7 years old. I live in a home with a fenced yard and I walk the dogs all the time. I'm off work Saturdays and Sundays. Monday through Friday I'm a dental assistant but have flexible hours. I will be the person taking care of your fur family. I am good at bathing and grooming dogs. I love all dogs and am very trustworthy. If you need a sitter or dog walker reach out to me. I am currently working Monday- Friday at a dental clinic but I'm home by 2:00 or 4:00 and my husband is home most of the time to help with the pups or kitties. I have a fenced backyard and have my very friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company. I can kennel if you'd wish as well.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my hands-on experience with both young and senior pets, including those with medical needs. I’ve cared for my parents’ dog after a major surgery, which involved giving medications, monitoring recovery, and making sure he stayed calm and comfortable. I’ve also watched my aunt’s senior dog and her kittens, so I understand the different care routines, energy levels, and attention each age group needs. I’m very patient, responsible, and always make sure pets feel safe and loved in my care. I work full time from 6 a.m. to 3 p.m., which gives me plenty of availability in the afternoons, evenings, and on weekends for pet care. I’m very organized and plan my schedule around the needs of the pets I’m caring for. Whether it’s evening visits, feeding, litter box cleaning, or just spending quality time with them, I always make sure they get the attention they need. In my home, I make sure pets have a safe, calm, and clean environment where they can feel comfortable and relaxed. I follow their usual routines as closely as possible—feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any medications they may need. I also make sure they have quiet spaces to rest and lots of attention and love throughout the day. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat it with the same respect I would my own. I stick closely to their normal routine to help reduce stress, keep everything tidy, and make sure the pets feel secure in their own space. I give regular updates so owners know how their pets are doing and can feel at ease while they’re away.

“Baylea is fantastic! My pup has been to her house for boarding and has had drop in's, both have been amazing care options! After she got home from a week at Baylea's farm, she was pretty tuckered out but that means she had a great time. ? Highly recommended for any services!”


About: I’m a volunteer at BENCHS regional pet shelter where I’m involved in their dog enrichment program and dog walking. Ive worked with a wide variety of temperaments/ages/shapes/sizes. I’ve had dogs my whole life, and currently have a very smart 5yr old Doberman/lab named Remi who loves running, swimming, hiking, and knows a ton of unique tricks. Such as playing dead, spinning, rolling over, speak, and whisper, and much more. My normal routine involves walking my own dog twice a day no matter what (including enrichment/training). My volunteer work also involves walking multiple dogs during the afternoons. I enjoy working with and training not only my own dogs but other dogs. My dog is spoiled but very well behaved. She has a regular schedule and I try my best to give her a daily routine she can rely on. Whether that be her daily walks, feeding schedule, and enrichment time. I work full time and still always have time to maintain routine for her. Needless to say that’s how I approach all pets. They appreciate and love routine in their lives so if I can give them that, they seem to be much happier/well behaved/trainable.


About: Have raised dogs up at my parents farm in Minnesota and fostered puppies, bottle-fed kittens, cats and lonely adult dogs through the GBHS and PAWS Atlanta. I work from home with no travel so my schedule is flexible. I love animals with my whole heart and sometimes I don’t think we deserve all the kindness and love they give us. I give away free belly rubs and you will never have to worry with your best friend in my care. Willing to send as many updates of their care to you as you’d like - I’m a crazy cat Mom! I’ve taken care of older dogs, sick dogs who need medication, high-energy dogs, puppy mill puppies, dogs with anxiety, and cats of all shapes and sizes. I have special experience in caring for cats with asthma, diabetes, chronic kidney disease and IBS. I can pill, give subcutaneous fluids, test for blood sugar, and more. I can’t wait to meet your furry friend! I work full-time as a copywriter but work from home, so my schedule is flexible! I live in the Grant Park neighborhood and am willing to travel depending on the pet care needs. I have a two-bedroom apartment kept at a comfortable temperature with lots of cat toys, cat beds, cat trees, scratchers and cat treats. When I'm caring at my client's home, I keep it spotless, clean up any messes and make sure it is tidy and cozy when my client returns home.

I have experience walking all sizes of dogs and love to do fun activities and training. If your pet has any behaviors that you would like to work on such as potty training or problem barking I have experience in training as well. I also can do overnight house sitting and take care of any other pets in the home. Whether your dog is young or old, you can be sure that they will have a great time with me! I’m currently working 8am-4pm Monday through Friday in downtown Rochester, MN. I am available before and after work for any of your pet care needs.

About: We have had the pleasure of owning a small business called "Pet-Inn" and boarded many dogs! Me and my mom took care of others dogs for quite some time and really enjoyed it. This experience helped me become passionate about entrepreneurship as well as working towards a compassionate connection with your pets! I currently have a part-time small business I'm running apart from being a "SAHM" so I will have plenty of time to get to know your beloved pet and get to know them so I can take care of them in the best way I know possible! I have some free time in my schedule, so finding a slot during the week to care for your pet works well for us. I have a now 5-year-old who adores small dogs, cats, and other animals! I am well aware of the responsibilities of pet care, but I want to emphasize that your pet's safety is my top priority.

About: I’ve cared for a variety of pets over the years, including dogs of all ages. I have hands-on experience with puppies who need structure and patience, as well as senior dogs who require extra attention, medication, and a gentle touch. Whether it’s going for long walks, playtime, or just providing comfort and companionship, I genuinely love caring for animals and making sure they feel safe and happy. What sets me apart is my attention to detail and calm, caring nature. I treat every pet like they’re my own, taking time to learn their personality. I’m reliable, communicative, and always go the extra mile to make sure both pets and their owners feel comfortable. I fit pet care into my routine during my free time, usually in the mornings and evenings during the week, and more flexible on weekends. I ensure a safe, clean, and pet-friendly environment. I build trust through gentle handling, consistent routines, and lots of affection. I follow specific care instructions and prioritize the pet’s comfort and well-being.

Nathan C.
“Going out of town for an extended vacation was nerve racking for us as puppy parents. Fortunately we had Nate who is a kind, empathetic and caring person who very quickly built a trusting relationship with us and more importantly our dogs. Nate is a natural at building rapport and was able to quickly win our dogs over. We have three dogs and he managed each of their special needs with ease. We also have a very high needs dog in terms of medication along with a regimented walking and feeding schedule. Nate managed this with utmost care and diligence. I would trust Nate 100% with our dogs and would highly recommend him to anyone else be it they have two or four legs.”
