House Sitting in Crystal Bay

“Kristin did a great job communicating while she stayed at our home to watch our pup. She sent updates at a nice frequency, and my husband and I were able to enjoy our vacation knowing that our home and our dog were in great hands!”

About: I have had both cats and dogs for as long as I can remember! I have had both through all stages of their lives, puppy/kitten - senior. I also have experience with administering medications. I am a college student who misses my own pets, and I would love to help care for yours so they do not get lonely! I am currently a college student and I do not have another job at the moment. This semester I am in class from 12pm-3pm M/W/F, and 8am-1:30pm on T/Th. Outside of that, I am a student leader so I have meetings on Monday’s from 3:30-5pm and events on some Friday's. However, I make sure to find time on my lunch breaks and before and after class to make sure pups can get outside and get a little love in between the times I have to be away. At my home, I have a fenced in yard for my dog, who is generally very well behaved, but I do not leave him unattended for long. He loves to wrestle and be brushed, so we do that often. He gets food once daily, per vet recommendations. In the past when I have had cats, they loved to cuddle and were pretty lazy. I cleaned out their litter box’s every 1-2 days, and they were grazers so I kept their food and water full daily.

“Deb was fantastic! She was consistent with communication and photos and details which we appreciated so much! We would definitely have her back.”

Making sure you have nothing to worry about and that your family member is being taken care of.

“Abigail was an amazing sitter. We immediately felt comfortable with her from the moment she met our pup. She had great communication and gave our pup all the love. Would highly recommend to anyone with any type of pet, her background gives her great experience and she is a sitter to be trusted.”

“Samantha sent great updates and took good care of our fur friends while we were out of town. She took care in our home, as well. We will definitely request her services again.”

“My husband and I just moved to the Twin Cities area and we had previously always had friends we could rely on to watch our dog and check on our cat. So this was a new experience for us (mostly me, let’s be honest), but Justin was great and kept me updated while we were gone on how they were both doing. My dog is a silly nervous boy and Justin knew how to get him to warm up. I’m so glad we could find someone we trust with our fur babies!”

“Our dogs loved being with Victoria while we were away on a trip! It was our first time having someone watch them in our house, but it went really smoothly and the daily updates provided us with the peace of mind that they were doing well. We would love to have her watch our dogs the next time we are away!”

“Stephanie was great! I can tell my pet was well cared for and I also came home to a house that was just as clean (if not cleaner) than when I left it. I will happily use her again!”

“Katharine and her daughter were fantastic! They took the time to really understand our dog’s daily care and feeding routine, they were in contact with pictures and messages every day while we gone, and everything looked just as we had left it when we returned. Best of all it was obvious they both truly love animals, and I know they showered our fur baby with love while we were away. Highly recommend!”

About: Ever since I was a little girl, I’ve had dogs in my life. From growing up with family labs to currently caring for my own black lab named Mae! I love giving dogs a life full of fun, adventure, and exercise—whether that’s walks, hikes, games, or just quality playtime. As a former collegiate athlete and current physical therapy student, I bring energy, patience, and knowledge of safe movement, which helps me care for both energetic pups and senior dogs alike. I value treating every dog like family and strive to make each visit engaging, safe, and full of love for your precious pup :) Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. As a physical therapy student completing much of my coursework remotely, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate walks, drop-in visits, and pet care throughout the week. I am often available on weekends and have availability during weekdays as well, including evenings. Being active and organized, I thoroughly enjoy incorporating pet care into my day and can provide dependable attention, exercise, and companionship for your four-legged family member When it comes to caring for dogs, I value giving them my full attention. From the moment I meet them I want to make sure we are getting outside and being active. I find so much joy in making sure their cup is filled whether that’s us hanging out or going on long walks:)

“Camille stepped up in an urgent situation and helped me out with my rescue dog (who is not fond of strangers) for a weekend stay. She worked her magic, was super patient and eventually created a routine for my baby to follow. Even with a skittish temperament, my dog responded to Camille's nurturing disposition and both made it through the weekend unscathed. Would definitely recommend Camille to other households!”

About: With over 4 years of dog sitting experience for multiple families, and nearly 2 years in pet hospitality, I have extensive experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and varying health conditions! I have experience in safely administering medications to numerous dogs including oral medications as well as eye and ear treatments. I have a very flexible schedule and can accommodate a variety of needs! I am available throughout the week, including weekends, and can provide consistent supervision, exercise, feeding, and administer medication if required. Your pet's safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities. I believe pets are happiest in their familiar environment, so I work hard to maintain their normal schedule while you're away. I carefully follow all care instructions, including feeding, exercise, medication administration (such as oral medications, eye drops, and ear drops), and any special needs. I treat every home with respect and every pet as if they were my own, providing attentive care, and plenty of affection to ensure both you and your pet feel comfortable and confident while you're apart.

About: Growing up on a hobby farm gave me experience with,and love for, a wide range of animals. I have a great deal of experience with cats and dogs, but also a long list of farm and exotic animals. In my circle, I tend to be the person that people call for help or knowledge with their fur babies. I am experienced and comfortable administering oral, topical, inhaled, and injected medications. I am well versed in first aid/wound care and am CPR certified. I own my own business so I am able to be flexible with my hours to accommodate all of my clients and their fur babies needs. Attention to detail and communication is important to me. So when I am caring for a furry family member in your home or out on a walk I am sure to follow all direction given. In addition, I will always provide you with updates and check ins on how your fur baby is doing.

About: I have had dogs my entire life and am currently in advanced obedience and agility with my golden retriever. I love to play and walk with our dogs. I am a retired medical professional and feel comfortable giving any medications. I would love to care for your dogs and keep them safe and happy while you are away. I have taken care of friends and relatives dogs. I am retired so I can stay with your pet while you are away. My husband will be taking care of our dogs while I pet sit. I will take great care of your pets. Follow all instructions. Make sure they are fed on time and exercised if requested. I am responsible and dogs love me!

“We loved having Carrie stay at our house and take care of our pet - she was so loving and sent us great pictures all week! We will absolutely use her again!”
