About: Hi! I’m Isabelle, and if there’s an animal in the room, chances are you’ll find me hanging out with it. I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember and genuinely enjoy spending time with pets of all kinds. Whether your dog loves long walks, playing fetch, belly rubs, or your cat prefers a quiet companion and some extra treats, I’m happy to provide the care and attention they deserve. I know every pet has their own personality, and I love getting to know what makes each one special. My goal is to make sure your pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away and to give you peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. I can’t wait to meet your furry family members and spoil them with lots of love and attention! I have a very flexible schedule and am able to accommodate a wide range of days and times, including weekdays, weekends, and last minute requests when needed. I’m happy to work around your schedule to make sure your pets get consistent, reliable care whenever you need it I care for pets by sticking closely to their normal routine so they feel safe and relaxed. This includes feeding them on schedule, making sure they get exercise and playtime, keeping their space clean, and giving them lots of love and attention. I always pay close attention to their behavior and needs so they stay happy and comfortable while their owners are away.

Always keeping an eye on them so make sure they’re safe and behaving. I also want them to be comfortable with me so making sure I introduce my self in mine or there home correctly.

“Jan is just the best! She is so awesome with our 10 year old dog. She loves her, sends cute pictures of their time together and is a wonderful person to hire to be with your dog in any situation. I cannot recommend her enough!!”

“Ashley has been easy to work with, super timely, and great with our dog. I highly recommend her. Our shepherd/husky Max is an energetic guy and he instantly liked her. Max can sometimes be a handful, and this was no problem - Ashley’s a pro with big dogs. Max came back from his walks happy, smiley, and calm. Thanks Ashley for your care!”

I have experience working with all age ranges for pets, including young puppy to senior, as well as different temperaments. I truly put all of my care into looking after each and every pet, and make sure they received the best care possible. I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate most bookings in advance so please reach out for any pet sitting needs! I can also accommodate day-before bookings if my schedule permits. I do my best to show your fur baby as much love and care as they would get at home, my job is to make them comfortable and enjoy their time with me!

About: Hi! I’m Steph — a full-time pet caregiver through Rover and the heart behind a growing pet photography business. Animals have always been a big part of my life. I’ve been pet sitting since I was 13 and have experience with all kinds of animals, from high-energy pups to quiet companions. I share my life with my dog Scooby, who’s a big lovebug and gets along great with both people and other animals, and two leopard geckos, Helios and Haku, who each have their own little quirks and charm. Over the years, I’ve worked closely with dogs and cats of all breeds, ages, and temperaments. I also have hands-on experience with pet nutrition and wellness—I've worked with a variety of healthy foods, natural supplements, and holistic care routines. I’m great at picking up on subtle signs when something’s off and take pet health seriously. Whether we’re playing fetch, going for a walk, or just snuggling on the couch, I’m all about creating a calm, loving environment where your pet feels safe and cared for. I tailor my care to each animal’s unique personality and needs, and I always follow your instructions to a T—because your peace of mind matters just as much as your pet’s happiness. My goal is simple: to make sure your pet feels loved, understood, and completely at ease while you’re away. I am very flexible with my schedule so please feel free to send me a request or a direct message to sent up an appointment! I have worked with certified fear free trainers as well as being a groomer for 3 years now I am very aware of animal body language and how to meet their needs so they feel safe in their environment. I do have a dachshund mix named Scooby that is incredibly friendly with Small to XL dogs. She’s always up for having a play date!

About: My husband and I grew up with dogs our whole lives and we owned a small dog for 15 years. We are often one our neighbors and relatives call when they need a pet sitter. We are excited to meet new dogs and families and offer pet care. Our home is warm and welcoming and we like to give pets a lot of attention. We feel they are a part of our family when they are with us. You will receive pictures and regular updates while your dog is with us, so you can be reassured your pets are having a wonderful vacation too. Looking forward to meeting you and your furry family members! My husband works from home. I work from home at times and we have two older kids who are often home to help too. We are never away for more than 4 hours at a time. We follow the owner’s preferences. We will use leashes, harnesses, etc. when on walks. We will administer medications as needed. Dogs can sleep in our beds.

About: Howdy howdy! I currently work 38 hours per week in social services in low income communities. I help folks with disabilities get out into the community and discover their passions! My job is my favorite thing, and coming home to a sweet pet and - quite frankly, a bed nicer than mine, is always going to be welcomed! I spend most of my off hours training my rescue Shibas. I am a tv show connoisseur as well! I provide stability and consistency. I also do provide cuddling services if so requested by your pet. I recently rescued a kitten off the highway so my hands are full! Thanks for reading and reach out with any questions! ** in case you are wondering the story behind photo 7, sweet Bianca gets really scared of fireworks and thunder, she has a favorite spot in the bathroom and I didn’t want her to be alone! So I camped in the bathroom with her and brought in the trusty ol kindle. :) I work full time within the community to help disabled communities. I work Monday-Friday typically between 32-40 hours weekly outside of the home. I love coming home to a new face & sticking to a dog’s regular routine. Willing to wake up early for a good walk and some quality time on the couch when dinner comes! When taking care of a clients pet, I try not to stray from their routine and lots of loving. I am extremely patient and will give any dog the time they need to warm up to me - I’m a stranger! By the end of my stay, your dog will miss me when I go out the door - guaranteed by all paws I’ve dogsat for already!

“Thank you so much!”

About: I’ve taken care of, and grew up with, many different kinds of pets. Before moving out, I spent 10 wonderful years playing with, and caring, my family dog and cat! If you’d like, I’d love to meet, care for, and befriend your pets as well! I’m currently working full time Monday-Friday, but I have flexibility regarding my schedule. On weekdays, I’m more free in the afternoon but on weekends I’m free most of the day. I have a park next to where I live where I’d be able to take your pet out and play with him/her. My apartment is also pet friendly!

About: UPDATE- my husband and I are now both retired. We look forward to meeting you and your fur babies I am an empty nester and love to keep busy. I work with individuals with developmental disabilities as a nurse. Have been at my job for 14 years.I am the mom to 2 fur babies at home, a yellow lab, Macie who is 9 and Bear a Pitbull/boxer 10yr. I grew up in northern Minnesota, where we had dogs,cats and a quarter horse, named Jake. I attended nursing school in Brainerd. My husband and I like to keep busy in the summer either camping or heading to a music festival. I enjoy gardening and meeting up with friends. We have 2 grown sons who both live in Minnesota as well. I would be honored to take care of your fur babies. I am comfortable with medication both oral and injections. When I care for your pets they will get the best care, that's my promise to you Update-I have had both of my Covid vaccines My husband I are both retired. We like to spend time working in our yard or on our home projects. Since we have lost both our dogs opening up our home gives us the opportunity to give love to other dogs. We do not have a fenced yard and use a fifty-foot tie out. When using tie out we are always in the yard with them. If needed we can also take out on leash.

About: I care for my family’s dog, Moxie, every day alongside my siblings. This includes feeding, walks, playtime, and making sure he stays happy, active, and comfortable. What sets me apart is that I understand every pet has different needs and routines. I’m reliable, attentive, and committed to following your instructions closely so your pet receives the same care and consistency they’re used to at home. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, active playtime, or simply having company, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I’ve also cared for small pets in the past and have always enjoyed spending time with animals. My goal is to provide dependable care and give pet owners peace of mind knowing their pets are in good hands. I’m currently a college student and work part-time during the summer, which gives me flexibility to provide pet care throughout the week. My work schedule varies from week to week, but because I work part-time, I have plenty of availability for drop-in visits, walks, and quality time with your pets. I typically know my schedule in advance and do my best to accommodate pet care requests whenever possible. I’m also usually available on weekends and enjoy spending time outdoors with dogs, whether that’s going for walks, playing, or simply keeping them company. I’ve always been an animal lover….I’m usually the one in the corner spending more time with the pets than the people at family gatherings! In fact, I even made a PowerPoint presentation to convince my family to get our goldendoodle, Moxie. My priority is making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine and needs, follow instructions carefully, and provide consistent, reliable care. Whether I’m stopping by for a visit or taking your dog on a walk, I’ll treat them like my own, with patience, attention, playtime, and affection. I also respect my clients’ homes and will care for your pet and belongings responsibly while you’re away.

“Wow! Ed has been just amazing. I came back from knee surgery and just wasn’t able to walk my dog . Ed has been so kind. Consistently prompt and incredibly dependable, Ed always was flexible when I needed a schedule flex. He offered really helpful insights for my dog’s aging (he’s almost 17), was always on time and so thoughtful. Ed even brought me a cookie and hauled my empty and full garbage cans to the curb and back! My dog really loved him and I appreciated the updates. I’ve so enjoyed having Ed’s assistance with walking and would highly recommend him for any help you may need with your pets.”

About: Growing up, we were never without a pet, and my love for animals has been a constant throughout my life. I have years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes, from small lap dogs to large breeds, and I’m especially comfortable with bully breeds. Friends and family often turn to me when they need a reliable and loving pet sitter, knowing their pets will be treated like family in my care. Over the past two years, we’ve experienced the heartbreaking loss of two beloved dogs, which has deepened my understanding of the love and devotion we have for our pets. I know how important it is to find someone you trust to care for them, and I strive to give every dog in my care the same level of attention, affection, and patience that I would want for my own. I have a fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely play, and I take regular walks around a nearby lake, offering plenty of exercise and enrichment. Whether your pup loves to run, play, cuddle, or just lounge around, I tailor each stay to their unique personality and needs. Animals bring so much joy into our lives, and I truly love being able to give pet parents peace of mind while they’re away. I look forward to meeting your furry family member and providing them with a happy, safe, and loving experience! I work 12 hours a week outside of the home. My husband has a hybrid schedule so is usually at home if I have to be at work. We do have very active children and spend time driving to and from sports practices but there is usually someone here at all time! I take safety very seriously. I have a fenced in back yard and dogs will always be on leash outside of the backyard. I am able to crate if your fur baby is more comfortable with that. If interested in boarding, we will always have a meet and greet to make sure all animals and kids are comfortable. We have three children in the home ages 14,12 and 7 so any pets staying here must be comfortable around children that know how to interact and respect animals :)

“Regina is AMAZING! I will for sure ask for her help again. Wonderful, caring and very helpful. I needed to adjust times a couple of times and she always tried to help if she was available. Very, very happy. So was my dog. ?”

About: What sets me apart is the genuine care I bring to every pet. I’ve had my cat for 8 years and have cared for family dogs, giving me experience with different personalities, routines, and needs. I’m patient, attentive, dependable, and I’ll treat your pets with the same love and attention I’d want for my own. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I’m used to caring for my own cat every day. I make time for feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, playtime, and attention. I’m also flexible with my schedule and can make time for visits and care based on each pet’s needs and routine. I care for pets with patience, attention, and consistency. In a client’s home, I follow their normal routine closely, including feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, playtime, and plenty of attention. I’ll also respect their home, keep things clean, and make sure their pet feels safe and comfortable while they’re away.

About: I have experience in taking care of elderly dogs and young pups. I have trained my dogs and other dogs to sit, down, wait and shake. I live in the Lake Minnetonka area. I have a Chihuahua/Terrier/Maltese Mix and he is 5 years old. I can provide the need for walks and drop in visits and house sitting. I live on Lake Minnetonka and have a flexible job and can be available during the morning, day, and night and overnight to watch your pets. I am available during the weekends, holidays and family vacations during school breaks. I request to have clear instructions for walking/sitting dogs for harnesses, leashes, feeding, and toy preferences. I have a vet that I would use for emergencies.

About: I’ve grown up caring for dogs my entire life and have approximately 20 years of hands-on experience. My family has had two dogs, so I’m comfortable with daily feeding, walking, playtime, basic training, and maintaining consistent routines. I’ve also helped family members and friends care for and walk their dogs, giving me experience with different personalities and needs. I understand that every dog is unique, and I’ll treat yours with the same patience, attention, and affection I give my own. I am currently working online for school and will have winter break making me available at all times of the day during the week and on the weekends. I am comfortable with walking dogs and letting them out in a fenced community. I will travel and stay at your home, if that is the preference to keep your pet in a familiar environment while you are away to limit the amount of changes!

About: I have grown up with numerous animals and I love taking care of them. I am very responsible and I take care of your pets the way you ask me to.
