About: I am well-equipped to care for dogs with unique needs, such as anxiety, special diets, and daily medication. Senior dogs in need of special care. I currently have availability Monday-Sunday. I currently work for a salon as an esthetician part time but I am pretty flexible for the most part. My services include playtime, walks, and complimentary treats for your dogs. Medication administration if needed, Exercise is essential in my care for younger aged dogs, as well as dogs that require special diets.

About: I have always lived with a cat. Every friend I have has either a cat or dog or more. I have had exotic animals as well. From breaded dragons to praying mantis. First thing I do make sure to feed everyone. Moving the cat bowls back down because the dog likes to try to eat them at night. The dog gets walked before she eats. We just bought a walkway to help our aging cats reach the food bowls. We have three separate feeding areas. So that everyone can eat. One of our cats has anxiety. We have gone through various methods until we find the one that works to relax her.

“Hannah was awesome! I could tell my pups were well loved because they were exhausted when we got home, and that’s saying something considering our lab pup has no off switch! She checked in with any questions and did a great job communicating. She gave our senior dog all her supplements and even made sure the treats she got were okay with our pups restricted diet! We are already planning our next sitting!”


About: I have had a passion for all animals sonce a young age.i have raised and trained my own dogs and would love to help you care for you sweet fur babies as well. I am a stay at home mom and home 24/7. I have ample time to pay pets extra attention. I can provide constant supervision and lots of play and cuddle time. Our yard is fenced giving dogs ample room to run. Dogs are also supervised while outside. We have 2 dogs of our own who are extremely dog friendly and ready for new companions to play with or share a nap on the couch. No kennel time required but I can accommodate kennels and any kennel training you have in place.

About: My name is Taylor. I am a SAHM looking to make some extra cash, while getting to love on your furry babies. I have experience as a dog trainer, where I worked with all breeds. I have personal and professional experience with bully breeds. (i.e. Mastiffs, Rottweilers, Pitbulls, etc.) I also have experience with XL breeds. (i.e. Mastiffs, Great Danes, etc.) During my care, I will implement basic training and manners. If you would like me to provide extra training services, I am more than willing to discuss this further. I am available to care for your pets during the day while my oldest child is at school and after the school day is over. I am also available most weekends. I have a fenced in yard where your fur babies will be safe to run, exercise, and play. Being good with small children is a must as I do have young children, one being a major animal lover.

About: I’ve had a dog in my household for as long as I can remember! My family has had golden retrievers throughout my life, and my brother currently has an adorable golden puppy. Unfortunately I can’t currently have a pet as I’m just graduated from college, so dog sitting or walking will help fulfill my love for dogs! I just graduated this May with my masters degree from St Cloud State University and have just recently moved to this area. I will not be starting my new job until next school year and therefore I’m available for pet care any day of the week, and would have a flexible schedule for dog sitting or walking. Dog walking would be great for my routine as I’m an early riser and would be happy for an early morning stroll! I’m unable to provide services in my home as I am currently in an apartment, however I’m open to caring for your pet in any environment provided. I’ve had experience living with a large dog most of my life, and have been with them through all stages of their lives. I’m currently taking the summer off so I am looking to pet care for something fun to do in all of my newfound free time! I am willing to adapt to any of your pets needs in and around your home. Whether that be long walks or curling up on the couch together, I am willing to do whatever they need to feel comfortable away from their owners.

About: I have grown up with dogs and cats my whole life. I love how each animal has a different personality. I would treat your pet as if it were my own. I work full time during the day, Monday through Friday. I would be available in the evenings and weekends to walk, feed, let outside, and board. I have two friendly dogs who love to play. We do not have a fenced in yard but we do have a long tie out leash. I am available to come to your home in the evenings to feed, play, and let your dogs out if you are not able to.

About: As someone who grew up with animals in the house, i view cats and dogs as an extension of the family unit. In having grown up with and around both dogs and cats, I have an inside knowledge on what is required to ensure your fur baby feels safe, loved and cared for. I will make it my goal to ensure that my home is a safe haven where your animals see it as a "home away from home". I initially got into pet sitting after having my friends, neighbors, and co-workers, ask me to watch their pets for a few days so that they were able to go on vacation, have a date night, go away for a business trip etc, and from there I've found myself continuing to assist going on over two years. One thing that has compelled me to expand my services has been the cost-to-level-of-care ratio and the hassle that Boarding has had on my parents, co-workers, and friends. As someone who acknowledges the constraints and the need and desire of pet mom and dads when seeking out care for their fur babies, I invite you to book with me so that we can make sure that your pet can feel as if they are at a "home away from home". I work from home and am able to dedicate the time, energy, and care required to take care of animals with a spectrum of needs. Dedicated room for kennels and boarding, fenced-in back yard, safe neighborhood, ability to take extended stays due to a flexible schedule, bathing, walking, and potty training

About: My house was known as the zoo. Reptiles, ferrets, birds, a goat, horses, a pony, dogs, cats, prying mantis. I have experience with most kinds of pets. I have helped raise dachshund and fostered dogs and cats. I have three days a week and start work at noon. Plenty of time to watch, or just drop by to make sure they are given some extra love. I have multiple cat towers and walkways for them to explore. I live in an area with lots of walking paths. I have a big yard to play in.


“Emily stayed overnight at our house with our elderly toy Fox terrier for several days. She sent updates and photos daily, which I really appreciated. We came home to a happy dog and an orderly house…so much appreciated! I’d definitely recommend Emily and plan to use her services again!”


About: While I am the primary dog-sitter on ROVER, our family of four loves dogs and play dates for our golden-doodle, Leo, born April 2019. We have watched our friends’ & neighbors’ dogs; one of them suggested we give this option a try. I work as a real estate agent with a fairly flexible schedule. I hang most days with our pup and provide lots of snuggles and bathroom breaks throughout the day. I keep dogs on the main floor of our home, which has hardwood floors throughout. We have a large yard and friendly neighborhood for walks.
