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!”

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.”

“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!”

Madeleine S.

“Desiree is the best!!! She took great care of our cat and provided photos during her drop in visits. We definitely recommend her for house sitting and pet care.”

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’ve been taking care of animals of all kinds since I was just a tot at 4 years old. I have pets of my own, one of which requires twice daily medication, so I am well versed and experienced in medication administration. I do currently have a job that, on days I am scheduled, work 5am-5pm. Outside of those hours I love to spend time with my own pets and would love to expand that to spending time with even more furry friends! I always like to make sure my home is safe and “pet proof,” never leaving out any plants, cleaners, food, or anything that may harm pets in any way. Ensuring they eat their meals and get any needed medication in a timely matter is vital to me.

About: Hi, I’m John! I’m here to help fill the gap for you. I only allow one client in my home at a time to give your dog the attention they deserve. *Note* while typically I mainly do dog boarding, I am available to do drop in visits and dog walking until 6/21/26 If you would prefer a meet and greet before you bring them over for a long stay, let me know what time works best for! I offer pick up services for your pet if you don’t have time to drop them off as long as you are within a reasonable distance and it doesn’t conflict with my work schedule. Let me know how I can help! I work from home full-time during the week and my job allows me to give attention as needed. I typically give potty breaks every 2 hours We’re pet people, too. I allow pets on my furniture. I feed my dog in the morning but can do as many meals as you require and feed your pup separately if they’re good aggressive.

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

About: I’ve always had dogs growing up, so caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life. Along with my personal experience caring for pets, I also have a background working with children through Early Head Start and as a pediatric nurse in both clinic and hospital settings. My experience has made me very patient, attentive, dependable, and calm under pressure. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I’ll always treat them with the same love and care I would my own. I work three 12-hour shifts each week, which gives me several days off and flexibility throughout the week. On my days off, I have plenty of time for walks, drop-ins, playtime, and giving pets the attention and care they need. I’m organized, dependable, and able to balance my work schedule while still providing reliable and consistent care for pets. Your pets will always be treated with the same love, patience, and attention that I give my own.

“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!”

“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.

“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.”

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 😄

“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!

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!

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