“Kristin sent pictures and updates when she checked in our cats. She did a great job and we definitely recommend if you need a sitter. Thank you again for checking in our cats!”

“Hailey was extremely patient and gentle with my baby. She hopped on board last minute to help me out in a pinch and saved my weekend plans. So grateful for her and her communication was on point.”

“Catarina was amazing with my GSD. She took great care of her, provided tons of updates and followed all our care instructions. We will definitely book with her again.”

About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember. I grew up with two Persian cats, a yellow lab, and two Yorkies, which gave me hands on experience caring for both small and large breeds. I currently have two cats of my own, Stormy and Toasty, so I truly understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets. In addition to my personal experience, I’ve completed formal training through Dog Handler Academy, where I learned safe handling techniques, canine behavior fundamentals, and structured care practices. I’m comfortable administering medications, following detailed care instructions, and maintaining consistent routines for pets of all ages. Over the years, I’ve cared for family and friends’ pets, including feeding, daily walks, training, enrichment play, and overnight stays. I’m calm, patient, and attentive, and I prioritize clear communication so you always feel confident and at ease while you’re away. I also have 1+ year experience working at dog boarding kennels. I currently work part-time with early morning shifts, which allows me to provide reliable afternoon, evening, and weekend care. I’m available for drop-in visits, walks, and overnight house sitting, and I prioritize maintaining your pet’s normal routine. I plan my schedule carefully to ensure pets receive consistent attention and timely care. When caring for pets in your home, I stick closely to their normal routine so they feel comfortable and secure. I make sure feeding schedules, litter boxes, walks, and playtime are handled just the way you prefer. I’m very mindful about locking doors, keeping gates secure, and being respectful of your space. I treat your home and your pets with the same care and attention I give my own.

About: I started dog sitting at the age of 11, and have always been surrounded by friends and family members’ dogs. I like to keep active by training for races, and love having a furry buddy with me as a train. I work on the weekends, so I am usually available during the weekdays to meet your scheduled needs. I love clear and open communication, so please be sure to share any specific needs your pet(s) may have and I would be happy to assist to ensure their experience is enjoyable and safe while in my care. I’m currently working on the weekends and run my business from home during the weekdays so I am able to create my own schedule to meet your needs. I understand that all pets communicate differently with their owners, and approach pets in a calm manner when introduced to dispel any anxiety or discomfort. Additionally, I remain alert to the surrounding environment to ensure we take the safest path.
“Our cats were very well taken care of. Samantha provided daily feedback and pictures. She even got the picky one to eat and sit with her. Would happily have her pet sit for us again.”

“Our 3 dogs really enjoyed having Katy around! She met us and the dogs before our trip. She was in contact with me and sent pictures the whole time we were gone. Would definitely have her again!”

About: We are caretakers for all our family and friends fur babies when they need help. For hours or days. We lost our golden doodle to cancer and miss having another dog around but aren’t ready to commit to our own yet. Let us spoil yours! Between the four of us we typically have great flexibility in our schedule. We do work outside of the home so the pups need to be able to withstand 3-4 hours alone. We have a large fenced in yard where they can roam freely or play with balls and sticks or just lay on the sun if they’re lazy 😊
“Madelyn was great with my pups! She stayed at my house for 10 days and always gave me updates and sent pictures. When one of my pups had a small injury that he gets often from his intense games of fetch, she sent me pictures, videos, and had researched the issue. She was willing to take him to the vet which luckily wasn’t necessary but she was so caring and attentive. I would absolutely book her again.”

About: I’ve always been an animal lover and had my own dog for 17 wonderful years. Since I travel a lot now, I can’t commit to having a pet of my own, but I truly enjoy taking care of other people’s pets and treating them like they’re my own while their humans are away. I believe great pet care starts with learning your pet’s routine, habits, and personality so they can stick to what feels familiar and safe. I’m attentive, patient, and happy to follow your instructions closely. I’ll also keep you updated with messages and photos, so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing while you’re gone. I work from home as a technical writer, so it is easy for me to keep an eye on your pet and maintain the regular routine - take them out and feed them at their regularly scheduled times. Your pet gets lots of love and attention from me! They're family after all. :) If you choose me to take care of your pet, it will be in your home. I take care of both your pet and your home with respect.
“Caitlyn did an amazing job staying with our dogs while we were on vacation for a week. She had great communication and sent us pictures throughout the week. It was nice to know our dogs were being spoiled and we'll cared for. I would highly recommend her and will definitely be using her again in the future!”

“Kayla was amazing with our Phoebe girl! She checked in often with updates, and we were able to enjoy a worry free vacation. Our skittish dog is easily stressed, but we were sent pictures of her snuggling, having fun and loving her new friend!”

“Anna is the best! She has watched our dog Milo a few times and Milo loves her. We trust that he is well cared for and loved. It’s wonderful to be away and know Milo is in such great hands.”

“Oliver came over for a meet/greet prior to staying in my home with my 2 chihuahuas which was very helpful. He took great care of my girls and sent lots of updates and pix. I highly recommend him for any time you need pet care!”

About: Hi, my name is Annalyse and I am 18 years old. I grew up around lots of animals, including dogs, so I have plenty of experience, and I can’t wait to help you and your furry friend!! I can do a variety of services and am willing to do same day services when I am able!! I currently work for the city of Chanhassen as a park camp leader, and pet sitting is just a fun side job!! I am looking forward to pet sitting in my free time, but it is not my main job, however I hope to provide quality care to you and your pets!! All pets need different levels and types of care, but all deserve love. I am willing to do any service except for boarding, as my current home does not allow dogs. I can do house sitting as well as over night stays, however I would request a meetup prior to either of those services to get to know you guys!!

Stephanie is amazing!!! She was super proactive with meeting our dog in advance and making sure he was comfortable with her. She is super knowledgeable, kind, and was the perfect person to watch our boy for the weekend. We will absolutely be booking with her again! :)

She was a perfect dog sitter for us, highly recommend! Kept us updated with how things were going, sent photos, and made sure our senior dog was comfortable at home. Our dog is really picky about who she gets along with, and she was comfortable hanging out with Madi who gives off great energy!

Emma was wonderful. When she came out to meet the girls - our dog and her "cousin" who was staying with us - our dog Lakota fell in love, in love, in love with her. Unusual for our Lakota. Our dogs were the best they've ever been at our homecoming. From her daily reports, it was the most time they spent out and about while we were gone. (They tend to hide or stay apart on their own while we are gone.) It was clear from her reports and their behavior that they received plenty of loving attention. She kept in touch and we could see that they were doing fine. Absolutely would love to have her for our kids again.

Anna was great! Very communicative throughout the process; prior to arrival and during her stay, sharing updates/pics of our babe. She was very courteous and respectful, taking great care of our home. And best of all our pup Archie loved spending time with her! Would highly recommend!

I can’t recommend Serena enough! She took excellent care of my dogs over Labor Day weekend and made the whole experience completely stress-free. Communication was great from start to finish—she kept me updated with regular messages and sent cute pictures that really gave me peace of mind while I was away. Not only were the dogs clearly happy and well cared for, but my home was left neat and tidy, which I really appreciated. It’s such a relief to know that my pets (and my home) are in good hands. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Serena again!

Lauren is absolutely fantastic! Our dog Harvey had the best time with her - including a field trip to get a pup cup! In addition to taking great care of Harvey, she was so respectful and thoughtful when it came to staying at our home. Would highly recommend Lauren to anyone looking for great care for their pup!!
