Cat Sitting Crystal Bay

About: I love creatures of all kinds-whether they're stinky, silly, or sneaky, I think animals are wonderful and deserve the best life we can offer them. It's a joy for me to help your pets feel cared for. I'm currently working part-time, Mon/Wed/Fri. If you have any specific needs, I'm happy to talk more about how to provide your beloved pet with the best possible care while you're away. I'm happy to keep your creature company and see to their needs. I am a very timely, tidy and diligent person, and try to leave a place just as good as I found it (or better!).

“Emma took great care of my two cats while I was away! She was reliable and caring, and I felt completely comfortable knowing they were in good hands. I’d definitely have her watch them again 😊”

About: I have 15 years of experience caring for dogs and cats, from quick drop-in visits and playtime to extended stays with overnight pet sitting. I grew up with my parents’ dogs and have always had a love for animals. I spent two weeks in California caring for a Golden Retriever. I have experience with multiple overnight stays, caring for 1–5 pets at a time. I understand that every pet has unique needs and routines, and I make sure they receive plenty of love and care. I’m reliable, attentive, and committed to keeping your pets safe, happy, and comfortable while providing updates and peace of mind while you’re away! I work from home so am available to work from anywhere. I love going on walks and can easily make that a part of a routine while caring for your animals. I am able to come over and watch your pets! I am used to various environments while pet-sitting. I am also available for walks and check-ins to make sure your pets feel taken care of.

“Tori was awesome! She instinctively knew how to make my cat comfortable with her, and he was happy to play and snuggle when she visited. Tori provided pictures and messages with each visit, and she always left the house secure when she finished her visit. I will definitely reach out to her again in the future!”

“Briana is truly one of a kind! It’s hard to find someone you can trust completely with your pets, but from the moment we met her, we knew our puppy was in wonderful hands. She is so kind, dependable, and genuinely caring. She treats our pup like he is her own. Knowing he is happy, loved, and well cared for while we’re away gives us such peace of mind. We are incredibly grateful for Briana and feel so lucky to have found her. We couldn’t recommend her more highly!”

“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.”

“Truly a wonderful experience! I was out of town for a wedding, and had to leave my anxious pup alone for the first time. Gabrielle made the process so easy - and made sure to keep me updated and took good care her! She kept up with her meds, and paid close attention to other dogs while out on walks. Will be booking again!”

About: I’m a passionate (professionally trained) dog trainer with over four years of experience at one of the currently top rated and award winning doggie day cares, boarding and training facility in the metro area! My passion has taken me through professional boarding facilities and various sized playrooms, where I’ve learned the ins and outs of doggy behavior from playful pups, ones that are a little more on the spicy side, to the more reserved ones. what I truly love is helping pups thrive. I have been trained to use various tools if needed for your pup such as properly fitting a harness, a prong collar, and more. I will happily collaborate with you to create a perfect care plan including enrichment, walks, play time, brain games and structure. I have been successfully training dogs for 11 years with the past 4 being in a professional setting. I’m all about clarity, transparency and open communication. My current position at my full time job is the lead trainer and manager of a smaller group daycare for reactive pups of various degrees and pups that need structure. I’m fine with behavioral issues such as resource guarding, reactivity ect as long as it’s disclosed first. I also have a senior GSD at home so I know how to provide compassionate care for our sugar faced friends! I’m always open for questions or comments and I send LOTS of pictures! I require a meet and greet before booking any services (unless it’s a last minute drop in or dog walk) I work full time as a dog trainer but I always make time to train and work my own dogs as well as being able to care for others pets. We can discuss your ideal schedule and figure out together the perfect plan. I’m available most evenings and weekends. I have a fully fenced yard, long lines and a couple favorite parks! I will always be transparent with pet parents about expectations with their pets. What I would do with a senior pup is different than a young dog. I’m happy to provide my companionship and love for dogs who would rather snuggle and just be around people or play lots of fetch and do lots of brain games for dogs who need that. Usually it’s a mix between the two, some play, lots of love.

About: Animals have always been part of my life—from dogs and cats to hamsters, guinea pigs, and even a pot-bellied pig! Big or small, I love them all! I’m currently a stay-at-home mom finishing up my master’s degree, which gives me the flexibility to spend plenty of time with your fur babies! I’m available for sitting and walking on both weekdays and weekends. I prioritize following your pet’s routine, including feeding schedules, exercise needs, and any special instructions or restrictions you provide. I create a safe, comfortable, and loving environment where your pet feels secure and cared for.

“Natalie was my first ever rover experience and she was so amazing! She checked on my two girls over a long holiday weekend and was amazing about communication. She even got my more shy kitty to come out and play every time she was here! Definitely would recommend Natalie and hope to rebook her again :)”

About: I have 2 cats of my own whom I love dearly, so I take the responsibility of pet-sitting very seriously. Things like daily enrichment, supervision, and providing a safe environment are my top priority. Fun fact: I watched my cousin's flying squirrel once as a kid! I have plenty of time to take care of your furry friends! I have 2 cats of my own that I care for on a daily basis, so caring for animals is already a part of my daily routine. I love to send updates and photos to pet parents throughout the day and I am super easy to reach over the phone if you need anything! I also like to give homes a small tidy up before I leave (free of charge) which would include removing pet hair, wiping down things down, and leaving the space better than I found it.

About: I have had dogs in my family my whole life. I have cared for my family dog throughout its senior years. I now have a toy poodle of my own who I cared for during her recovery from a broken leg. She is now a happy and healthy pup who loves to run and play, so high energy dogs are no stranger to me. I am always drawn to dogs everywhere I go but it seems dogs tend to be drawn to me as well always wanting to say hello! I work full time from home with occasional in-office days in downtown Minneapolis. In-office days are sporadic so I may be unavailable some days. Otherwise, I can work from anywhere so I am very flexible. Pet’s safety and comfort is always my number one priority. I am cautious and aware when opening doors that pets could slip out of. When out in public I am always aware of other animals nearby as you cannot always guarantee every pet owner is responsible to keep their pet leashed. I am aware of foods that are toxic to pets and refrain from feeding pets “people” food. Additionally I keep all plants and other toxic items out of reach of pets.

“Annette is super reliable and flexible! She has been a big help with transitioning my puppy home!”
