About: Started taking care of cats when I was 10, started taking care of dogs at 11, have cared for many families dogs/cats/chickens/sheep, any and all animals! I was also a supervisor at a doggie daycare. Me and my husband work together to make sure pets are taken care of throughout the day, flexible work schedules make that possible for us! I’ve stayed at clients houses with their animals in the past, I’m organized and respectful, and want to make your animals feel right at home.

About: I was born and raised in Southeastern Minnesota on a farm and have been surrounded by animals my whole life. I have helped raise horses, chickens, cats and dogs, bunnies and pigs. I originally was going to become a Veterinarian but have taken a different route yet still love getting as much time with animals as I can. I'm also a very active individual and love to ensure your animal gets adequate exercise too. :-) I lived in Seattle for 5 years for school and had the joy of dog sitting many wonderful pets. I can guarantee your animal will be well taken care of and gets lots of attention. I care for them like they are my own. Beau is an active GSP who loves all dogs and humans.

About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs my entire life. I currently have 4 amazing dogs of my own, I foster and volunteer for a local rescue so I have worked with dogs of all sizes, temperaments and needs. Whether it’s snuggles on the couch, long walks, play time, or calm companionship, I’m here to give your dog all the care, love and attention they deserve while you are away. I believe in treating every dog like my own-with patience, kindness and fun. I provide regular updates and photos, so you'll never have to wonder how your dog is doing. Whether it's a walk, a drop-in, or an overnight stay, I'll make sure your pup is safe, comfortable, and happy. Let's set up a meet & greet-l'd love to meet you and your furry best friend! I currently work full time so am available any day after 3 to bring your pup for a walk, feed them or bring them to my house to play with my dogs. I can make any night work for overnight care. I live in a dog-loving home with a secure, dog-friendly environment. My own dogs are well-socialized and friendly, and I take introductions slowly to make sure everyone feels safe and comfortable. I am also available to come to your home to take care of your dog if preferred.

About: My dogs have always been very high needs growing up, so I have a lot of experience working with different diets, medications, and needs. I'm an athlete, so I can take them out for long periods of time to get exercise as needed, which can be really helpful for hyperactive dogs who have to be cooped up during the day. I'm also entirely capable of caring for senior dogs, I can take things at their pace and make sure they're comfortable and happy. I am currently a full time college student, but I have a lot of open time either between classes or after them. I commute to the Twin Cities from the suburbs, so I can easily travel wherever I am needed to be able to check in on or take care of your furry friends. Being in the cities with my own car I can take dogs out for walks around the lakes or down some of the trails nearby so they (and I) can get some proper exercise before my classes. When caring for pets, I always make sure they are getting plenty of time to move around, especially if I'm just dropping in to check on them, but regardless of the need. I like to keep a checklist of what I need to get done, as well as just having a bit of time to play with or pet them. I can take pets out for walks on foot or with my roller skates, which lets me go longer distances with them. I make sure to clean up any messes I might make, putting everything back as I found it and keeping things nice and tidy for when you get home again. I'm confident staying in new places, and can make sure everything stays safe in your home or space during my time there.

About: Dog friendly home with a fenced in backyard Fur mom to Theo (15 month old German Shorthair Pointer mix) My dog loves to be around other dogs 1 block from Victory Memorial Parkway/Theo Wirth Parkway 5 minute drive to a dog park 5-10 minute drive to Downtown/Uptown Mpls My favorite thing to do is spend time with my playful pup, Theo! We enjoy going on walks, car rides, trips to the dog park, and playing fetch in our fenced in backyard. I know it can be hard to be away from your dog. Allow me to ease your mind. I have a lot of love to give, so while your pup is in my care, they will be loved as if they were my own!

About: I’ve always had animals to take care of since I can remember. Both cats and dogs, and even some other small animals/exotic pets. I worked at a boarding facility with daycare, and I have fostered many dogs in the past. I’m an animal science major and have many hours of experience working with animals of all kinds. I have worked with reactive dogs and I’m always up for keeping your routine consistent with any training you might be working on as well! I will be working a summer job along with pet-sitting this summer. I will only be working max 8 hour shifts and will always have time to care for my own pets, along with yours. If you choose me to take care of them. I have an unfenced yard, but I do have a tether that I can attach a dog to. But of course, I can walk them around the yard on a leash, if that works better for the dog! A typical day with my dog looks like: Wake up and immediately feed him and replenish his water, then out for a potty break. We then spend some time relaxing while I get ready for the day. If he wants, we spend some time inside playing with toys. If I need to go to work, he resides in the common areas of the house. He will always get let out before I leave. If we spend a lot of time inside/if I have to work, I’ll get home and we usually go for a walk to get some energy out. We usually do some training and other daily activities either on the walk or after. Then in the evening he eats again, we go out for a potty break. Normally my dog doesn’t have an overabundance of energy, so we spend the rest of the night cuddling on the couch.

“Sara has been very good with Brewtus!! He's a puppy and isn't trained all the way just yet. She plays with him and he goes potty for her. No accidents while he is waiting for us to come home after she's been here! So happy ?”

Matt & Angela M.

“First time working with Natalie to take care of and check on my senior, special needs dog. She was on time, gave useful updates, made sure my dog had her medication, and provided great photos. Looking forward to having Natalie take care of my dog when I have to be away from home in the future. Thanks!”

“Emily was great with my cats! One of my cats usually stays in hiding when I have people check in but she came out for Emily after just a few days (it usually takes a week). She also brought my mail in for me without me asking her.”

Eliza K.

“Nina is very responsive and kind. She always takes lots of pictures and gives great reports! My pup loves her when usually she's shy around new people. Highly recommend.”

Jen S.

“Sarah was wonderful stopping in each day to feed and play with my cat while I was out of town! I was gone for a week and he’s usually very needy when I get home, but she took such good care of him that he seemed to barely miss me! I will definitely be using Sarah to watch my cat again.”

“Rebecca was great with my dogs! She came to meet them beforehand and was really sweet with them. She was also very responsive and flexible with meeting times!”

Heidi M.

“Abigail was fantastic! It was an initial meet and greet for her to watch our pups and house for a night, and our dogs loved her IMMEDIATELY. She asked all the right questions, and made us feel certain that our pups and house were in great hands.”

About: For over 5 years, I've been the go-to pet caretaker for many in my community. From energetic puppies to wise senior dogs, I've had the joy of caring for them all. My experience spans walking, feeding, bathing, and even some basic training. Every pet is unique, and I pride myself on recognizing and attending to each one's individual needs. Whether your fur baby needs patience, energy, or a gentle touch, I'm here to provide it. Balancing a remote job gives me the flexibility and opportunity to dedicate substantial time to pet care. I’m fervent about ensuring our furry companions get ample play and attention. I am open for boarding on weekends, and my weekdays post 11am are entirely devoted to caring for pets. Rest assured, your pets will enjoy ample time of fun and care with me! Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets. In my home, I've created a pet-friendly environment, free from hazards and with plenty of play space. All pets have access to clean, comfortable resting spots and fresh water at all times. If I'm taking care of pets in your home, I'm respectful of your space and follow all guidelines provided. My goal is to ensure that whether I'm in your home or you entrust your pet in mine, they are safe, happy, and well cared for.

About: Dogs: I have grown up with German Shepherds my entire life. I currently own an elderly one and understand the difficulties of having an elderly dog. But also because I lived with them I learned to handle and read the body language of dogs. I have had a few smaller dogs in my life also so no worries if you own a smaller family member(s) because I'm comfortable with all sizes. (I have also been training dogs for 3+ years and wish to offer that soon!) Cats: My first job as a kid was to watch our kind neighbors cat. Meaning I fed, played and cleaned the litter box. I have also grown up around cats and I own 2 myself Other Animal Family Members: I also have owned many different reptiles, birds and small animals like leopard geckos, snakes, hamsters, guinea pigs, cockatiels and a few others. (So please feel free to reach out if you need a visit for these family members as well). I currently have afternoon times available! I am free from Thursday - Sunday from 11am to 10pm. I am currently in school so I have a very flexible schedule during that time to stop by and care for your family member(s). Your dog or cat is a family member. I will care for them just as you would. If you feel I have not met this, I wish for feedback on how I can do better. I am very communicative if you have any concerns or need updates as the visit goes on please feel free to notify me. If I am concerned about your family member(s) I will openly reach out to make sure you know right away and we can figure out what needs to happen next. My goal is to make you the owner feel comfortable with leaving your family member(s) with me and also have your family member(s) be comfortable with me. Thank you for considering me!

“Cassandra is so amazing to work with!! She was very patient with my anxious pup. He warmed up to her more than I thought he would because of her patience and care! Will definitely book Cassandra again. Thank you!!!”

“Amanda gave great care to our both our cats while we were on a short vacation. One of our cats is diabetic and needed twice a day insulin injections and special care. She was also excellent about sending pics and updates after her check-ins.”

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was young; family and friends have trusted me with their pets. I take pride in ensuring your pets’ consistent routine is not interrupted.

I am available for morning and evening walks/check ins during the week. I am available full time beginning Friday afternoon into Sunday evening. The time I spend with your pet is fully dedicated to them and their needs. I appreciate every furry friend I come across and always want to make sure they are taken care of as if they’re my own.
