About: I grew up with dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, rats, fish and chickens. I can care for almost any animal with love and affection. I work remotely Monday thru Friday so I can care for your pet in my home during the week and I can do visits during the weekends I own my home. I have an extra large crate to accommodate any sized dog. I am more than willing to open my home and couch to your pet. 😂 Your rules are my rules. My yard has a large garden with many flowers and good things to sniff. And the local park has a stream and lots of wildlife.
“Linsie is great! On time, and communicates! Even took my pup to the dog park (she checked first) and was aware of the environment to keep Dewy safe. Appreciate her communication! Highly recommend.”

About: I have always enjoyed animal sitting and training as a hobby. My wife and I grew up in farm families and have cared for many animals. We have boarded and trained multiple horses, as well as raised calfs and chicks. We have many family members and friends we pet sit for. We work full time in Rochester, but our schedules are flexible enough to reach out and request us to meet up for boarding on weekdays. We are able to meet you for pickup if needed. We are also both home before 7:00am and After 5:00pm. During the weekend our times are generally flexible to fit your needs. We live on 5 acres just outside of Spring Valley Mn. Giving your fur babies plenty of space to run around and play. We met in the Army where I continue to serve in the MN National Guard as a Medic. We currently have two boys that love animals as much as we do. We allow your pets to be uncrated in our home and are more than willing to crate them during the day if that’s what you desire.
About: I joined Rover to help feed my love of multiple dogs! Since I travel occasionally, managing one dog full-time is enough for me. However, I grew up with 3 to 4 dogs on average. Choose me and your dog will have all the love and attention! I’m in my 30’s and work from home remotely M-F. I volunteer at multiple rescues, so have recent experience with different dog sizes and breeds. When I was younger, I use to be an AKC Junior Handler in dog shows. My personal dog experience ranges from Papillons, Lab/Golden Retriever mixes, Goldendoodles, and a Doberman. I’ve also owned multiple cats growing up, so are also available for feline drop-ins. I even have experience with tiger cubs! I spend a lot of time with my dog and will give your dog the same attention. I am available for walks, drop ins and overnights. I currently work remotely from home so have a pretty open schedule to come take care of your pup at your home or housesit during the week. I take care of your pets at your home so safety is not an issue. This gives my customers an ease of mind that their animal is in it’s normal environment.

I will also stay and play with animals for a while! I will treat your pet as family and make sure they are well taken care of! I am a fairly relaxed person as well , also very flexible.
“Lauren did a great job looking after my pets over a three day weekend. I got details of each visit and pictures, which is great for a worrying pet parent. I have a dog and a cat who is normally stand-offing, but she walked right up to Lauren when they first met. She even made sure my reptiles had water and food while we were out. I could tell a big difference in my pets' demeanors once we got home and it made me feel good knowing they were cared for. I highly recommend!”
