Pet Sitting in Bemidji

“Kaylee was unfazed by feeding and medical needs. She kept us updated so I could relax and not worry about how our critters were doing in our absence. I expect to call her again next time we have to be away!”

“Helen was really great with Susie and got her to warm up very quickly despite her being shy. She took great care of her and was a great communicator. I would recommend her!”

About: I’m the sitter who has had dogs around my whole life. I handle every stage—from zoomy teens to slow‑motion seniors—with patience, humor, and clear communication. Basically: you relax, I’ll handle the fur‑kids. I currently work full time Monday through Friday and am looking to pet sit and walk dogs after work and on weekends to help get some extra money for bills. I would prefer to watch your dogs in their own space at your home. It helps them feel more comfortable. I also have a cat so having dogs over is difficult.

“Melissa was so wonderful, we look forward to having her watch our pups again soon! She took time to meet them, get to know them, and was very friendly and caring.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats (along with other animals) my whole life! I grew up with dogs and haven’t known a house without them! My family currently has 6 dogs (14, 7,5,4 ,2,11 weeks) and we just recently had to put down our dog who was 12. I was her primary caretaker ensuring she got all of her meds and that she was comfortable. I also do a majority of the puppy training when we do get new dogs! Along with dogs my family has 2 cats (11,5), 2 fish, and 2 hamsters! To say I’ve been taking care of animals my whole life is an understatement! Along with that I also volunteer at my local animals shelter! I currently work part time along with being in school. My days are pretty open in the mornings! I’m open for house sitting all day/night on weekends and then in the morning on weekdays! I have class during some parts of the day but only for an hour. I work from 4-9 Monday - Friday but I am more than willing to work after that! I am currently unable to take care of any pets in my home but I am more than willing to travel to take care of yours! I would make sure to honor their space (and your of course)!

“Desiree has provided care for our cat, Griffin, several times. We are always happy when she is available. She takes great care of Griffin and our home. She even brought in a few packages that were left on the porch. Desiree is a gem!”

About: I was raised on a farm with all sorts of animals to take care of. I have always had a best friend/roommate dog or cat, and currently live with a chatty, lovely 15-yr old torti female cat. They are all very familiar with other dogs, cats, and guinea pigs, and socialize regularly with family and guests' pets. I work remotely from home, but very flexible with location. I also have access to a reliable vehicle! Overall, my pets wake me up in the morning to ask for treats thanks to being absolutely spoiled, and then remind me to feed them all the time, just in case I forget. They're pampered and thriving. Pet care is a very regularly and well-done part of my life. Farm life also included some hospitality amenities and a military family, so as now as an adult/person/employee/friend I'm able to use my experience from growing up and traveling widely by respectfully being in another's space and making friends along the way. Together your pets and I can go on nice play walks by a lake and dog-friendly parks. Cats obviously do whatever they want and outside is optional.

About: I am widely available since bemidji is my home town. I love all dogs and cats and have taken care of many pets. Animals are wonderful companions. I work part time and do all my college courses online so I have plenty of time to play and take care of animals. I prefer furry friends over socializing any day! I can also use my lunches at work to let the pets out and feed them. I will only be doing work on clients homes, as my apartment is not pet friendly. Sadly :( But o feel animals are more comfortable in their own environment anyways. Just tell me what their schedule is and where food and treats are and we should do just fine.

“Kayla was great at communicating how each visit went and sent great photos, which is always great when you are missing your pets.”

Jess R.

“Kristin was a great fit for us. She provided the perfect care we were looking for for our cat. We were thankful she was available over a holiday weekend. She dropped in to feed our cat and clean his litter box each day and also was willing to vacuum up his scattered litter and clean up his spilled water. Would hire Kristin again!”

Lauren F.

“Rachel did a great job with my cat, Susie, and offered her lots of affection and care. She followed all instructions and gave me updates when needed. I can tell she cares a lot about Susie’s well-being and I would recommend her to anyone. This is the second time she has watched Susie and I hope to continue working with her in the future!”

About: I’ve had dogs and cats all my life. My experience with most animals is pretty well. I use stern commands and also make sure that the pets that I take care of feel like they’re right at home. I am a full time teacher and on the weekends I bartend. I make sure that my dog gets well taken care of during the week by walking her before work or after work. I make sure that she gets played, fed and walked. I make sure my dog is well taken care of and I abide by whatever the client expects from me. Trust is huge in being able to care of someone’s precious baby.

About: I want to be your pets favorite nanny! I’m totally open to taking care of any animals you have! Pets are my best friend. I am outgoing and empathetic towards all animals. I would really enjoy to walk your dog/cat/ferret? Whichever pet you call yours! :) I have owned dogs and cats my whole life. I currently have a beautiful 7 year old chocolate lab named Zeke and 2 crazy kittys who are both 3 years old. They are a lively bunch and love making new friends! I am willing to drive as far as 30 Miles out of Bemidji to take care of your critters. I’ve loved animals my whole life and love meeting new ones. I am currently working from home full time and also going to school here at BSU. I have free time most days and love to do my homework outside of I can! I have a fenced in yard, I have two kittys and one puppers, they are friendly. If needed I can bring my own pets to another place in town while I am pet setting for you. I am more than willing to do that if needed. I also have a spare bedroom where your pet can stay to feel comfortable if they need to be secluded. But Zeke, Zoey, and Chance always love the extra company 😄

“All critters were alive and happy when we got back! Carter braved the weather to take care of them, great communication as well. I felt safe leaving them with Carter.”

Jamie H.

“Karen was wonderful!! She was so good with my 2 cats. I’d recommend her to anyone who is looking for a pet sitter.”

About: I’ve always had more than one pet at a time in my household growing up. After graduating I would take care of my older brothers dogs or my grandmas dogs while they went away. Now I have my own 2.5 year old pit mix. I’ve been around every breed and I love them all and treat them all like babies no matter their age or size! I currently only do pet sitting. I am finishing a coding class right now so I am fully available! My own pup has family to watch her while I spend time with yours so never an issue. I am not currently taking any dogs at my own place but I am more than happy to watch, walk, and check in on your pup for you!

“Amy was great with my pups and went out of her way to make sure everything was taken care of for the dogs. Thanks!”

About: I have been around dogs almost every day of my life :) I have worked with all kinds of breeds! I absolutely love them and I love spending my time around them. I am open most weekends and after 3pm on weekdays! Although I am able to come home at anytime from 7am-3pm for walks, bathroom breaks, or eating. I have two other dogs in the home to keep other dogs company. If there is any issues with other dogs I have a nice garage to keep either my or other dogs comfortable!

About: Hello! I have grown up with pets my entire life and have spent the past couple of years learning how to care for cats and dogs. I have helped raise dogs from puppies to adulthood with everything from grooming to exercise. The breeds I have the most experience with are Labrador and Maltese dogs. For training, I have experience both in training my own dogs and carrying on the training set by the owners of the dogs I watch over. I love to exercise with pets and enjoy walking with them alongside playing with toys. I have no preferences when it comes to pets as I will happily care for and love them all! I work a part time job with a very flexible schedule so I am easily able to fit pet care into my weekly schedule alongside care for my own animals. I am experienced with both crate-trained and free roaming pets. I am also keen on pet welfare to ensure the animal’s physical safety and happiness.

“Samantha was so kind and my dogs felt comfortable with her. She showed up on time and did a great job and shared lots of pictures. Thank you.”
