“Adrianne and her family have been a safe haven for my dog, Shaggy! First of all, I appreciated Adrianne’s meet and greet where we got to know each other briefly, talked about the expectations. Adrianne went above and beyond to accommodate Shaggy. She made my day by sending his pictures from morning till night 2-3 times a day:) it felt like I stayed connected with my dog and ensured he was happy and cared. Because of an inconvenience I personally experienced, I had to extend Shaggy’s visit one more day. She was very kind and understanding about the situation. We were able to extend the stay one more day. So long story short, she was amazing! I hope I can meet people like Adrienne when I move to Minneapolis because she is a really caring and kind pet lover and very friendly and kind person!”


“Hilary and her family did an awesome job caring for Oakley this week. She stayed in contact and sent pictures while we were gone! I would definitely recommend her and would book with her again in the future!”



“Steve was an absolute wonderful sitter for my guide Dog Sean. He paid attention to all details and information that was given. He also gave information and feedback on walks and he provided pictures of what he was doing with Sean”


“Katia was so awesome and took care of my husky Ethel for 5 days while I was out of town. She came home so happy and exhausted. 10/10 She accommodate us last minute which was super sweet of her.”



“Shyann is the best! Our Lexi has stayed with her twice and loved it! Lexi was on medication and not eating like she normally does, Shyann had no problems with our instructions and handled everything like a pro! It’s such a relief when you go out of town knowing that someone is really giving care and love to your furry family member, and that’s what Shyann does! We can relax and enjoy our trip, Shyann sends us fun and adorable pics & videos of Lexi and we really appreciate the extra effort she puts in doing that!”


“Sarah was a great fit for Duke. I had to leave town for a funeral so short notice and she was very accommodating. She kept me updated with how Duke was doing through my trip. I would recommend her for everyone to use.”


“My two senior dogs got excellent care with Monika. I am not sure they wanted to come home! I am using her again next week. Her yard is fenced and she sends pictures and reports which I greatly appreciate. She is the best!!”


“Gerard was fantastic. He is easy to communicate with, knowledgeable about dogs, specially seniors like ours. His has a large clean back yard perfect for Chesty to play ball in and enjoy the sun. He kept me up to date each day on how Chesty was doing. I would totally use him again and recommend him for boarding!”


“This was my first time using Rover, it was a very last minute decision but I couldn’t be happier with the way it went! Kino was well taken care of and enjoyed his stay. Michelle has a huge back yard and so much love and time to give your fur baby! I definitely recommend and will be using her for future trips! ❤️”


“Arya loved staying with Britny and Seth. I received regular pictures and updates throughout the stay. I will definitely be bringing Arya back to stay in the future!”


“Julie R. Is a kind-hearted, capable, compassionate pet lover who was amazing with my dog. She took him for long daily walks and gave him fun exercise time, kept him clean, fed, safe and happy. She paid attention to his little habits, and accommodated him in the most caring, ingenious ways. My dog was in good hands and came home in good shape and tired— just what a dog-owner would want!”


About: I have fostered dogs my whole life, and rehabilitated many untrained fosters. I basic obedience train all my personal dogs and foster dogs. I have also volunteered at the local animal shelter for the past 3 years. My husband and I work opposite schedules so someone is home majority of the day. I start my day at 4am taking care of my own dogs and work 8-4. My husband’s home all day and leaves for work at 2:30 so your beloved family member will have around the clock care! I have a 6ft privacy fence. I also am very trained in crate and rotating dogs if need be. I am equipped in medication administration as I have two personal dogs on daily meds. I have been trained on how to properly introduce dogs and have fostered many dogs over the past few years. I also have the room and availability to keep your pup separate from other dogs in the home if need be.

“Virginia met us at a local park so we could introduce our shepherd to her before her stay. We talked for almost an hour.... it was wonderful and Virginia is amazing with people as well as dogs. She sent us pictures of our Maggie while we were away to keep us updated on how she was doing. I definitely would use Virginia again in the future and recommend her to anyone needing a loving caretaker for their pet when they are away.”


“Alexis was just wonderful! Great communication and updates, thoughtful little touches that shows how much she loves caring for fur babies. She did exceptionally great with our over-eager Pit mix!”


“Had a great experience with Jennifer. She cared for our tiny puppy and provided lots of updates throughout the visit giving us confidence our little Bea was being loved on.”


About: I’ve had dogs since I was 6 years old, and love going on walks and spending quality with pups. Over the years, I’ve pet sat for both young puppies and sweet senior dogs who need a little extra TLC. My goal is to make sure your furry friend feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I'm currently home full-time, so I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give your pup all of the love and care they need! While I don’t have a fenced yard, all outdoor time is supervised - either on walks or a secure lead. I will follow your pet’s routine for feeding, walks, play, and rest, making sure they are safe, happy, and loved. Whether at my home or yours, I treat every pet like family and keep you updated throughout the stay!

“Absolutely would book again. Had a last minute booking and John was very open and understanding. John kept us updated and sent some great pics of the pups. John made our dogs feel welcomed and at home while we were gone and I'd honestly give him 10 stars for this experience if I could.”
