About: Hello! I'm Tina. I live in Waconia, and I'm looking to care for your dogs, for walks, quiet snuggles, or just a good run around the back yard. Will house/pet sit as well. I've had 3 dogs in my life, and 20+ years of playtime, laughs, and bonding with my "kids" as I call them. I currently have a 15 year old shih tzu/mix who is my baby. In the past, I've taken care of one of my dogs, who had many health issues, so I'm experienced with senior or special needs animals. I've administered meds (pills), spent many days at the vet, and am very sensitive to ill animals and senior animals who just want to rest or have low key play. I have experience with puppies as well who are looking to just have fun! I'm very responsible and dedicated to my animals, and would be the same with yours. Give me a try! =) Right now my schedule is open availability, so I'll have plenty of time to devote to your animal and their needs. I have availability on weekends as well, but that can change by the week. I have an unfenced yard and one senior little ole lady shih tzu who is extremely low maintenance and very sweet. She has free range of the house, but I do crate her when I'm away from home for periods of time.

“Cassidy is always so helpful and takes great care of my dogs. They clearly love when she’s been over and I trust her to care for them when I can’t.”

“Natalie is absolutely incredible with my girls! I have one puppy and one senior dog, so they come with a lot of quirks! She is quick to respond and connects with me about any questions or concerns. I cannot recommended her enough! We are so lucky to have found you 💕”

Morgan M.

“Our three dogs had a great visit from Lexi! She fed them, let them outside and played with them and sent us great photos and a video. We felt very assured leaving Lexi in charge of our crew and we returned home to three very happy pups! We'll definitely be booking Lexi for future dates. Thank you!”

“Makayla was very responsive and able to help out last minute which was so much appretiated!”

“Alyssa responded very quickly, from when I first reached out for availability. Callie liked her right away, and she asked the right amount of questions. We had a rainy few days, but she came prepared with her rain jacket for Callie's evening walk. She was great!!”

Joy H.

“I was so thankful to not have to worry about my little ones while I was gone. She was kind and very nice. I would ask for her again.”

Nikki E.

“Paige did a great job with our two cats, stopped in daily at the same time and played with and fed them, cleaned the litter box and sent us daily updates and photos, and all went well! And the best thing was, unlike other times when we've been gone, the cats had no behavioral issues, didn't chew anything up or leave poop surprise anywhere to show their defiance-- everything was normal when we got home and they seem perfectly content :)”

About: I have over two years of hands-on experience providing loving, dependable pet care, including drop-in visits, in-home dog sitting, and dog walking. I’m lucky to have several amazing regular clients and truly enjoy building strong bonds with the pets I care for. One of my absolute favorites is Remy, a playful white Labrador I’ve been trusted to watch for over a year, he always keeps me smiling! I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and currently have four of my own, so caring for pups is second nature to me. I’m passionate about making sure every dog feels safe, happy, and loved while their owners are away. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or cuddles, I treat every dog like they’re part of my own family. I am currently in school in the mornings and work in the afternoons however I am usually done by 6 giving me the whole night to hang out with your pup! I love being able to give dogs my full attention, whether that means extra playtime, long walks, or just keeping them company and making them feel comfortable and loved. Because I have four pups of my own at home, I do not offer pet sitting in my home. However, I am very comfortable caring for pets in your home, where they can stay in their familiar environment. I’m happy to keep your home tidy, follow your routines, and provide your pups with plenty of companionship, attention, and love while you’re away.

About: I’ve had and helped care for pets my entire life! From dogs and cats to guinea pigs and horses, I’ve always loved being around and caring for animals of all kinds. I’m familiar with the needs of cats and dogs of all ages and am dedicated to providing reliable, loving care so you can have peace of mind while you’re away! I just graduated from high school this past school year and will be commuting to school starting in September. I only have a few classes each weekday, so I should still be available to care for your pets around my schedule! I am also very flexible and should be able to meet the needs of almost any pet parent! In my experience, every home is run differently, and every pet sitting job is unique, so I always follow the pet parent’s schedule and instructions. I pay great attention to detail and am responsible with timelines for tasks.

About: I’ve taken care of family and personal animals ranging from rodents, dogs, cats and all farm animals! I have extensive experience in elder dogs and being able to meet and exceed every animal’s needs I currently work split shifts, so I will be able to play and take care of your pets from 12-3:15. Fridays I can do all day! I have a very watchful eye, I’m aware of every surrounding. I keep my dog leashed if theres people or dogs walking, I will take your dog out of any immediate danger or situation that we may encounter

“I highly recommend Riley. We have used her a few times to watch our puppies. She is responsive and responsible. Also appreciate Riley for her flexibility in scheduling.”

About: I've grown up with cats and dogs and also have experience caring for rabbits and other small pets. As an approved foster for RAGOM (Retrieve a Golden of Minnesota) and a former foster with The Bond Between, I've worked with animals of different ages, personalities, and backgrounds. These experiences have taught me the importance of patience, consistency, and building trust with each pet on their own terms. I love keeping animals happy and engaged through walks, playtime, enrichment activities, training exercises, and plenty of attention. Whether your pet prefers adventure, cuddles, or simply sticking to their normal routine, I'm happy to accommodate their individual needs. I've also provided pet-sitting services for coworkers and friends throughout the past year and have recently opened up my schedule to welcome new clients. My goal is to provide reliable, compassionate care while giving you peace of mind. I'm happy to follow any routines, instructions, or special requests to ensure your pet stays comfortable and stress-free while you're away. I work in Chaska, which allows me flexibility for visits before work, during my lunch break, or after work, and I live in Crystal and am able to travel where needed when not working. My goal is to provide dependable, compassionate care and give you peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands while you're away. I can stop in to check on pets before work, on a lunch break, or after work Mon-Thurs as I work full time. On Friday's I work 8-12 so I am more available. In the evenings and weekends I am wide open to accommodate any schedule or routine needed. I am able to follow any directions and guidance you give in order to keep your pet safe. Their safety and your peace of mind is my number one goal and I would never put them at risk. I am comfortable taking them out in public if you are comfortable with it, but am also happy to stay home and in your yard if that is your preference :)

About: I have a dog of my own, MinnieBean. She is a Portuguese Water Dog and is a bundle of joy. She’s quite shy around hoomans but loves other dogs :). I have had 8 great years looking after 2 dogs from a family I work for, and other dogs in between. I will make sure to feed, play and take out your fur baby when needed and make their comfort and happiness my priority. I have also administered medication too if needed. I do require a meet and greet first to make sure my service will be a good fit for both of us. I also have a toddler, so if the service will be in my home, they need to be great around kids :). I have confidence that you will feel comfortable and happy in leaving your pet in my hands. I will always care for and be responsible for any pet, in or out of my home. Oh, and I always love some cuddles too :) I am a stay at home mum, so I will be available pretty much most of the time, however, I do require your dog is kid friendly. I can easily crate your dog if needed or leave them where you tell me to when finishing the service. I will make sure water is available also if needed.

About: Experience raising a puppy. I cater to pups of all sizes and energy levels. My dog is not in a crate but we did crate train him I have a flexible work schedule that allows me to work from home most days. I anm available for potty breaks, walks, snuggles, or playing fetch. I have a large, unfenced yard but I do have a long lead we can use if necessary. I can use a crate if your dog is crate trained. I’m familiar to and accommodating of specialty diets. Rico and I love walks and running at the dog park down the road!

“She was so nice and friendly and took great care of my kitties! She left me stress free and I knew I didn’t have to worry about anything when she was watching them:) , 11/10 would love to have her watch my babies again”

“Jess took excellent care of my two cats on her drop in visits. On top of the food and litterbox, she gave them love and lots of pets! I highly recommend Jess.”

About: Pets make life better! They are family. If they behave well, they should be spoiled! I have always had dogs. I grew with up with dogs and now I have my own. I have never owned a cat because my mom is allergic, but I really enjoy them! I care for my friends two cats frequently. I love caring for, playing, and walking animals! I love getting outside to walk. I also love playing fetch and tug of war. I also enjoy playing with feather or ribbon cat toys! I am good with any age animal. They all need love and attention! My dog is 2, so I have been through the puppy stage recently. He has a lot of energy so I know how much exercise dogs need.
