About: I’ve always loved caring for my pets and family’s pets growing up and it’s my favorite thing to do now! I am able to recognize that each dog is different, just like us, and I’m willing to give them the specific care they need! I’m currently at university as a college student, but finding the time to care for your pets is important to me! Having a routine is something I love so I’m happy to fit your pups into mine! I love being able to take dogs out on walks to experience things outside of their home, but playing in the yard with toys is always fun!

8. Olivia M.
“Olivia will no doubt be a fantastic sitter. Having known her for a while, she is very friendly, responsible, and organized. She grew up taking care of a dog and always helped to take care of our friends' pets while we were in college together. I think you'll find that Olivia is very easy to work with and your pets will love how active, engaging, and caring she is.”


9. Amara N.
“Amara is incredibly attentive and hands on when it comes to pet sitting. We have a cat who is extremely hyper active and needs special attention when it comes to his eating patterns — and Amara handled him with ease. On top of that, Amara would send us daily updates and pictures of our cat while we were on vacation and we didn’t even have to ask her to do it. She gave us so much peace of mind and we are thankful for that! 10/10 would hire Amara again. Which surprise, we already did!”


10. Margaret W.

12. Linnea W.
About: I started caring for animals when I rescued my dog bean! She has taught me a LOT! Thanks to her I know how to manage dogs who are reactive. I'm also pretty good at keeping my footing if your 60lb pup decides to pull. All dogs deserve love is my motto. I also have experience caring for exotics! I've rehabilitated a bearded dragon and Russian tortoise in the past. I own tarantulas so I'm not afraid of any creepy crawlies either. Most of my availability will be on weekends but my schedule changes all the time so just ask! I'm normally pretty flexible so I'll try to fit you in, even if you ask same day. I can't bring your pet to my home unless it is a small caged pet but I'm happy to visit your home. I'm willing to do overnight stays or just pop in to give your pet a potty break and a walk. I'll always respect your home as if it was my own and your pets wellbeing will always be my highest priority.


13. Cathleen H.
“Cathleen is a great human and has always been attentive and compassionate with her dogs and our dogs whenever we visit! Years ago one of our boxers got sick and she helped us get him healthy for our road trip back to Minnesota. Recently she came north to visit (with her current dog Thor) and our dog fell in love with her and Thor. I would (and do) trust her (and my dog) with our lives! No worries at all!!”

18. Victoria W.
About: I’ve taken care of cats and dogs. Have rescued kittens and a bird once. As a young child I grew up in a home taking care of several cats and dogs. Right now I have a calico cat named Yuki who is 6 years old. I am currently working full time Sunday to Wednesday. I’m free for walks and drop in visits after 5:30 pm. I’m completely free on Thursdays to Saturdays. I live in a quiet neighborhood. With my cat Yuki I make sure to feed her when I get up. I’m very active, and Yuki loves playing with a laser pointer.


19. Erin R.
About: I have had cats, dogs, rabbits, mice, rats, fish, hermit crabs, tarantulas and many other types of pets of my own (cats and dogs my whole life) as well as cared for friends and family's pets since I was a little kid. I also volunteered at many local animal shelters in my late teens. I also have experience with different types of special needs animals; mostly cats in that aspect. (Paralyzed, deaf, blind, epileptic, diabetic and tri-pod) My daily and weekly schedule changes with my regular work schedule and my kids school schedule, but I am typically available during day time hours on weekdays, most likely at least one available night time drop-in available and can make myself available on Saturdays, if need be. Your pet will be more comfortable in an familiar environment such as their own home, so I would prefer to see them in their own home. I ask you leave a note somewhere prominent (i.e. kitchen table or counter) with quick point reminders of food/water bowl locations, food locations, treats, and any special reminders such as medications w/ times. I will take time to get to know your pet, play with them if they like or pets, loves snuggles... It's really all about what your pet wants/needs from me! I will also have my 14 year old daughter along to help care for your pet(s). Between the two of us we can run your whole zoo if you'd like!! We can do walkies for pets that need a little extra excersize. Shopping trips to pet-friendly local areas/shops/parks if wanted/permissible!


20. Sarah B.
About: I’ve dealt with and been around dogs my entire life. In August 2020, I adopted a dog with behavioral issues and have learned a lot on how to handle dogs that not everyone can. I’m also knowledgeable about muzzles and correct way to use them. I’m recently married and am looking for a more flexible schedule to be home In the evenings so I can spend time with my family. I treat them the same way the owners do and then some, all while still respecting the pet parents wishes and concerns. I treat them the same as I treat my dog.
