“Kimberly always knocks it out of the park when taking care of my kitties. She takes the time to play and hang out with Smokey and Sherman and they absolutely love her visiting. Smokey is naturally shy and it still amazes me that he comes around for her! She's got a great, caring spirit and is always my go-to caregiver whenever I head out of town. Absolutely wonderful!”
About: I've taken care of my dog Boe since we got him as a puppy and he is always so much fun to hang out with him! I work remotely for most of the week and would be able to take several breaks throughout the day to play with your pet and/or take them on walks We have a good size backyard with a zipline that can be attached to a dog's collar. We also have a vehicle that is big enough to transport your pet for any longer hikes or walks
“Liz is so communicative and kind! I had the utmost trust in her ability to care for my boys, and she really came through with the updates and pictures. Next time I need a pet sitter I'm asking Liz first :))”
“Danielle was great. She made me feel good about leaving my babies for the 1st time because I know they were in good care with her. I would recommend her if you need a sitter..”
About: I have two dogs of my own and foster regularly for a local rescue. Friends and family often rely on me for pet sitting because they trust my reliability, responsibility, and genuine love for animals. I’m passionate about providing safe, loving, and attentive care to every pet I meet. Pet care fits easily into my routine since I work part-time mowing lawns and driving for Uber. This gives me the flexibility to schedule visits, walks, and check-ins throughout the day. I enjoy being active and outdoors, and I love incorporating pet care into my daily flow. At home, I have a nice fenced-in yard with an in-ground system that’s safe and comfortable for pets to enjoy. When I’m in your home, I always respect your pet’s routine and preferences, making sure they feel secure and cared for in their own space.
“Christina was wonderful with our cat, Molly! We were so grateful she was available at the last minute. She stayed in contact the whole week we were gone and sent the cutest pictures of Molly! We highly recommend Christina and will absolutely call her again!”
“Jessie did a fantastic job caring for our two cats while we were away for 12 days. She did everything we asked for and more. She gave them their needed medication and food supplements and lovingly played with them each day like they were her own pets. All the extra bowls for their wet food were washed and both pooper boxes were well maintained when we returned. She shared tons of fun pics and videos and heart-warming messages about their well-being, which gave us peace of mind. We are so grateful we chose Jessie and definitely hope she is available next time we go on a big trip.”
About: I have 6 years in animal care 2 years of that is working animal control for the city! I love caring for other pets and animals. I treat them as my own ! i work Thursday- Monday working animal control and then I come home and care of my personal pets. I’m constantly surrounding myself with animals as they are a big part of my life! I love other animals and treat them all as if they were mine.

About: I treat every pet like family, not just a client. I take time to understand each pet’s personality, routine, and needs so they feel safe, happy, and loved whether I’m visiting for 30 minutes or staying all day. I have experience with walking, bathing, feeding, etc. Pet care is a central part of my daily life, not just a side job. I structure my schedule around the pets I care for, ensuring they receive consistent attention, exercise, and companionship throughout the day. IN HOME PET SITTING • Routine Maintenance: Follow the pet’s normal feeding, potty, and exercise schedule. • Clean Environment: Clean up after meals, litter boxes, cages, or any accidents. • Security Checks: Ensure doors, gates, and windows are secure; collect mail if requested. • Companionship: Spend quality time playing, petting, or just being present to reduce anxiety. • Daily Updates: Send texts/photos to the owner with updates on how their pet is doing. DOG WALKING • Leash Safety: Check the fit of the collar/harness, use a sturdy leash. • Route Familiarity: Use a route the dog knows, or confirm preferences with the owner. • Pace & Play: Match the walk to the dog’s energy level. Some might want to jog; others just sniff around. • Waste Cleanup: Always clean up after the dog and dispose properly. • Aftercare: Ensure they have fresh water and are safe/comfortable when you leave. DROP-IN VISITS • Feeding & Watering: Refill bowls and administer meds if needed. • Bathroom Break: Let dogs out or clean litter boxes/cages. • Play & Comfort: Spend a few minutes playing or cuddling. • Home Check: Make sure the home is secure and pet is safe before leaving.
About: My goal is to make your time away from your family member as stress free as possible for both of you. I honestly didn't create this account solely for a few extra dollars, although that's a nice bonus. I just love having extra dogs around, and my dog appreciates the company too. Socialization is (should be) a life long process after all. I have a fully fenced yard for potty breaks and we get out for walks daily. A little about me...I'm 37 and I've been in Duluth for 19 years. I moved here to attend college, and loved it so much I never left after graduating. I work from home full time for UnitedHealth Group, which my dog, Copper, is a huge fan of. I adopted him in April of 2023 and I'm looking forward to showing him a lifetime of adventures. I'm well versed in the areas of dog training and behavior, as well how dogs communicate with us and with one another. A little about my pets... Miss Nala, who's pictured in some of my photos, passed in February of 2023 after almost 14 years of being the best bud I could've asked for. I absolutely think Pitties are the best dogs out there, but decided on a breed that would be a little more hardy for our MN weather this time around and that's how Copper came into my life. I'd be happy (perfer) to set up a meet & greet before hand for everyones peace of mind. Just like people, two friendly dogs may not always get along. Of course, there's no fee for this! See my calendar for availability. Please note, although I work from home, weekday availability begins at 3pm unless the pet is okay being crated or trusted unsupervised during my work hours (to be let out for playtime/potty breaks while I am on break). Your pup will be treated like family and will have my undivided attention while in my care. Lots of space for playtime in my fenced backyard and plenty of comfy furniture inside to relax on. :)
About: I’ve done stay in and drop in care for pets of all ages and sizes. I have had experience administering medications for elderly dogs and adjusting my care to their personalized needs. I am only available Monday-Friday since I work on weekends and attend school during the week part time. During the week I wouldn’t be away from your pet for more than 2 hours at a time if your pet needs more care then just a drop in! In my home I provide daily care for my cats by cleaning their litter box at least once a day, wet food in the morning and night and always making sure their water and dry food are full!
