Cat Sitting in Averill

“Lauren and Jake are so passionate about animals. They did everything to make my Mochi feel comfortable and happy.”

“Our regular cat sitter had a last minute change of plans so I reached out to Maria. We have 5 cats with different needs and she did a fantastic job! She let us know about accidents and provided updates with pictures. We would absolutely go with her again, since she handled everything so well.”

About: I have years of experience working at a boarding facility, as a groomer, and as a private pet sitter. I am constantly researching and learning about dog behavior to make me a better dog owner. I am a dog nerd and still have dreams of becoming a dog trainer. I can be flexible with dog boarding at my house or drop offs for the day. Just ask for any questions! I currently work per diem and am unable to work due to my children’s various appointments during the week. Dog sitting is a job I can do while maintaining a household and it is work that I am passionate about! I truly enjoy having a bonus dog around. I love senior dogs, and their comfort is a priority for me. My current dog is also sensitive to any negative emotions, so we all try to keep things relaxed and enjoyable!

“Arica has been doing drop in visits on my little kitten and she has been great! She’s been sending pictures every time & I can tell Harvey is loving her visiting!”

About: I have taken care of my neighbors, friend, and co workers dogs when they have been busy between jobs or out of town for extended period of time. I am currently on summer break as work remotely from home and will go to campus for weekly meetings. I am available all days of the week. I can easily take animals to local parks or on doggie dates with my coworkers-worker coaches that have dogs themselves. I work with owners to maintain animals normal routine.

About: I have lived with animals, my whole life! When I was younger, I used to dog and horse it for a farm! I would also house it for somebody with many cats! I love all animals, big and small! I am currently working part-time and I am a college graduate student! During the week I don’t really have anything going on unless I’m in school hours! I will not be able to board any pets at my house, but I am willing to house it for others! I used to do it a lot as a child and I’m very comfortable with it!

“Grace was an amazing pet sitter for our cat, Axel :) I truly appreciated her communication action and the photos she sent to me each time.”

Paige K.

“Melina was great! She dropped in on my two kitties over Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. She took photos, sent updates, and got along great with my cats right away. I would definitely recommend Melina and would book with her again. She was a responsible and kind pet sitter!”

About: I’ve had a dog since I was 8 years old, and since then have taken care of or dogsat dogs ranging in age from brand new puppy to senior dogs 12 years +. I often pet sit for family friends and they always ask me to come back. I make sure to look for and meet the needs of every pet that I’ve taken care of, with massages, exercise, and most recently helping my mom train her now 1 year old puppy through potty training and up. I’m currently working Monday-Thursday in a flexible position, so while weekends are my forte, I would certainly be able to check on your pets a few times during the weekday if that’s needed. I prefer to stick to the routine and care level that your pet is used to- I feed them the same amount at the same times as their owners, and try to stick to a similar schedule of playing and walking (although, if allowed, I’m always open to a bit more play or snuggle time!)

About: I have experience with dogs that need medication and special treatments to include shots, eye and ear drops, medicated baths, and anything huh ing else your fur try companion would need. I’m currently a student and have a flexible schedule. I can adjust my schedule to yours on most days. I have reliable transportation to take your dog on outings. I have a fenced in yard with two dogs. I have areas to separate and kennel your dog if needed, along with separate feeding areas.

About: Experienced with dogs and cats for 3 years, I provide loving care, including puppy training, senior pet support, and personalized attention for every furry friend’s needs. I’m passionate about spending time with dogs and cats and have a flexible schedule, available weekdays and weekends to provide attentive, loving care whenever needed I provide safe, loving care tailored to each pet’s needs. Whether in my home or yours, I ensure plenty of playtime, walks, and cuddles as needed

“She loved on my kitty and took such good care of him! Will be using her again my next trip!”

About: I’ve had pets since I was a child including dogs, cats, hamster, horses, and even a snake. Since then I’ve volunteered regularly in animal shelter and would love to meet you and your pet :) I am currently working part time so my weekly schedule varies, I’ll made sure to always keep my schedule updated to make for easy booking! My top priority is making sure your pet feels comfortable and safe. Each visit and walk is individual and I’ll always be ministering your pets behavior and body language to see what is most needed at the time.

About: Short (to the point) version: **My husband & I live in Moorhead, MN. I work full time from the home. **I have experience with all dog types & some experience with puppy training. Although I have only been using Rover for about 9 years, I’ve been caring for dogs my whole life. **I am currently on maternity leave and can only handle drop-in visits. **We have a black lab named Cade. He is almost 4. He is rambunctious and would love a friend! But if your dog is not comfortable with a large breed around, he does have his own "area" gates in the house to keep him seperate. **I do not require we do a meet & greet, but I do encourage it as it helps to ensure I am a good fit for your pup. If you have an emergency and have a way for me to get to your pup (usually a lock box scenario), I’m happy to try to accommodate without a pre-meet. **You will receive updates about my visit/stay with your pup. I send pictures/videos/texts to ensure you are kept up to date:) Long-winded (get to know me) version: I love caring for pets; especially dogs! I was raised with Huskies and Basset Hounds & have been dog sitting for as long as I can remember. I volunteered for years as a dog walker for Homeward Bound Rescue. Because I care for all pets as if they are my own, my friends and clients feel comfortable knowing their little family members are in good hands. I'm an active person and love going for walks and runs. I love going for walks & hiking, but also enjoy a relaxing day at home cuddled up with a little friend. I'm looking forward to the opportunity to take care of your dog! I understand how stressful it can be leaving your family member with a stranger, but I assure you I'll care for your dog or puppy in the most loving and reliable way possible. I'm happy to check in with pictures and updates during care visits if you'd like as well. Lastly, no one will have access to any entry details, keys, lockbox codes you may share with me. I hold your safety in the highest regard. I am currently on maternity leave so my availability is hit or miss. If I can help, I will! But mostly just open to drop-in visits for now. I have a fenced in yard and a black lab who is sweet as can be to all animals and humans! I treat other people's pets as my own!

About: Animals have been a constant in my life - I’ve grown up with dogs and then fell in love with cats in my adult years. I know how much pets become family, and I’ve always had a soft spot for them. I’m comfortable with all ages and temperaments and have cared for pets through all stages of life - from energetic puppies to mellow seniors. Whether it’s walking, playing, feeding, or just keeping them company, I bring years of hands on experience and a genuine love for what I do. I currently work night shifts at a restaurant, which leaves my mornings, afternoons, and late nights open - perfect for walks, check-ins, or overnight stays. My schedule is consistent and gives me plenty of time to give pets the attention they need. Whether it’s a morning walk, midday hangout, or evening care, I’m available and happy to make your pet a regular part of my day. Your pet will be in kind, capable hands. I love being outside and staying active, so walks, park trips, and playtime are always on the table if your pet’s into it. I’ll follow their routine closely, keep things calm and consistent, and make sure they feel loved and relaxed while you’re away. Whether I’m dropping in, staying overnight, or just taking your dog for a walk, I treat every animal with the same love and attentiveness I give my own.

About: I’ve been around dogs and animals my entire life. I love taking care of animals of all sizes, ages, and breeds. Aside from having my own dog, I have shown dogs in the Buffalo County Fair for 10 years. Throughout those years, I earned various Grand and Reserve Champion awards, as well as being recognized as the “Outstanding Dog Showman” in 2024. I’ve learned what it means to truly care for your pet. I am passionate about treating animals with care and respect, and love to be around them. After moving away to college this year, I wanted to stay connected with dogs. This is what motivated me to start volunteering at the Homeward Animal Shelter as a dog Walker every week. I have experience training dogs, and am passionate about providing animals with the best lives as possible! I am currently a full time student at NDSU, and I have a truck that I can travel with when needed. I am flexible with scheduling, I just need a good amount of notice, ideally 5-7 days, as my schedule changes week by week. I am most available during the day on Tuesday/Thursday/the Weekend, and in the morning on Wednesdays. Feel free to reach out for specific times/days! I am excited to meet you and your pet! :) I believe that every animal deserves care and respect. I am respectful of any special needs your pet may have, and I am excited to spend time with them! Trust between the caretaker and animal is extremely import, and I approach every animal with patience, understanding, respect, and love. Extroverted or Introverted, I want to make your pet happy!

“Kadyn was great! My cat was well looked after and she communicated anything that was necessary. She also took some really cute pics of my kitty!”
