House Sitting in Crosslake

About: I have grown up with pets most of my life and will love on your fur babies as I loved mine. Puppies to Seniors will be extra spoiled in my care. I am available daily, M-F and some weekends. My schedule can be very flexible. Whether you want me to visit your pet at home for some love or take them out to play and walk, I can help. We currently do not have any pets as we recently lost our 12yr old, Bri. But our fur babes were spoiled. I will respect your rules for your own pet.

About: I’ve grown up around dogs and have experience caring for pets for friends, family, and neighbors. I’m responsible, patient, and always make sure pets feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for. I’m currently home from college for the summer, so I have a pretty flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for pets during the day, evenings, and weekends. I always make sure pets feel safe and comfortable while sticking to their normal routine as much as possible. I’m attentive, responsible, and happy to follow any specific instructions for your pet’s care.

“Rachel took great care of my cats and dog. They all seemed content when I got him from a long trip.”

“Melissa went far beyond expectations! She came to my home a few days before to meet my old puggle and I. Right away, I knew she was the right fit. Warm, friendly, very communicative and understanding of my older dog and patient with his little quirks. After talking and showing her around, I had no hesitation trusting Melissa with my home and my little world with 4 paws. She sent messages with photos letting me know she was handling his separation anxiety with patience, some humor and of course, treats! She is a true animal lover with a lot of knowledge of different breeds and older dog behaviors. I would highly recommend Melissa! Kind, dependable, responsible and overall really good person! It’s not easy for me to leave my little old man, even for one night, but will not hesitate to hire her again. Thank you Melissa! Brutus adored you.”

About: I've been and animal lover since day one! for eight years, i cared for my family dog as the primary caretaker, and since then I've become the go-to pet sitter for friends and family. From playful pups to cozy cats, giving pets loving, reliable care has always come naturally to me. I'm currently in between jobs, living with my parents, as I am taking care of my mom while she is receiving chemo treatment. My availability is very flexible and will try to make it work with you and your adorable fur babies! Safety and trust come first. I create a safe, calm environment where pets can relax and be themselves. Whether in my home or yours, I follow their routine, monitor them closely, and make sure every meal, walk, and cuddle happens with care.

About: I’ve worked with dogs for the past 7 years of my career. Have done dog sitting for the last 4 years. My current job is with animals. Can’t wait to meet your fur babies! I work full time but have one day off a week and have weekends off. Will stay in your house and can take them hiking or for walks. I prefer to care for your pets in your home where they are most comfortable in their environment. Take them for walks and play with them however they like.

“Bella has a great way with dogs. She treated Daisy like her own, and Daisy took to her right away. Highly recommend.”

About: Having spent my early years with our family dogs, I have come to an appreciation of the anxiety and work families go through in order to go on a trip without their beloved pets! Keeping your family pets in their own home reduces the stress on the family and the pet! We own a seasonal resort so we have limited availability for overnights June/July/August but are available for walking & attention throughout the day. Our resort is closed is mid-September through mid-May when we house-sit as well as care for our neighbors pets in their own home. Ideally we would like to meet the family and your pet before agreeing to home & pet sitting as we want a good match. Services offered: drop in care, pet walking, house sitting. Because we live in rural Minnesota, our fees reflect the additional transportation costs going to your home for services. When our seasonal resort is closed I am available most days and weekends. I have regular families on my schedule but only take one family reservation at a time. Prior to pet sitting in your home, I require meeting the owner and the pets. This will determine if we are a good match and the family can be confident your fur baby is well taken care.

“Eric was a great sitter for our two dogs at our home. He was very responsive, sent pictures while we were away and flexible with our requests. I look forward to using Eric again!”

About: As a lifelong animal lover who has cared for everything from birds and fish to dogs and cats since childhood, I understand how important it is for your pets to feel safe and comfortable in their own environment. Currently a pet parent myself and working professional, I bring both personal experience and reliability to your pet's care. My time volunteering at animal shelters has given me hands-on experience with different animal personalities and needs. I know how crucial it is to trust that your pets are receiving attentive, loving care while you're away, which is why I offer dedicated drop-in services that keep your furry (or feathered!) family members happy at home. I'm a teacher, so weekdays the availability for drop-ins would be in the morning, after school and in the evening. On weekends I am available for morning, afternoon and evening. I am a teacher in our local school district and consider myself very trustworthy. I understand there is a high level of trust needed to allow someone to drop into your home and care for your pets. As a pet parent I also understand the need to have a reliable sitter, rather than use a kennel. I hope I can fill that role for your family:)
