“Thank You so much Emily! We appreciate your flexibility with our additional visit requests and look forward to see Bruce on your Facebook page! Our son is so proud of his “kitty star”!”
“Kaitlin is fabulous! Our dogs love when she is here to care for them! We had our daughter’s dogs here as well and Kaitlin didn’t hesitate to take on the extra dogs! Highly recommend Kaitlin!”
“Elizabeth is an incredible petsitter and we would recommend her services again and again. Our 2 cats were well cared for throughout the entire time we were gone and we received detailed updates and photos after each of her visits. I typically get major anxiety leaving our cats when we go on vacation, but hearing from Elizabeth with daily updates gave me total peace of mind. She followed all of our instructions and gave the cats lots of attention and stimulus, even visiting for longer than we requested each day. One of our cats is very cautious of strangers and typically hides for petsitter, but she took an immediate liking to Elizabeth. She must be a great judge of character because we agree that Elizabeth is the best!”
About: Flexible schedule, lots of trails in my area for your puppies to explore, trustworthy, dependable and easily contacted. I’ve had pets of my own in the past that I loved and adored, and currently have a 3 year old eskimo/chihuahua that I adopted from the local shelter who loves to play w other dogs. I work three 12 hour shifts a week, meaning those 4 days off are great opportunities for me to walk your dog(s), stop in and check on them or stay with them. I understand the value of daily exercise and mental stimulation for a dog, so I will ensure they are getting their steps in. I also understand not everyone has the time or ability to ensure their pets receive daily exercise/time outside, and with my flexible schedule I would love to give you some peace of mind that your pet is having all of their needs met.
About: I stay with my furry granddaughter, Holly, when they have to go out of town. I have a neighbor's dog that stay with me occasionally. I am currently working part-time. My schedule changes from week to week. My shifts are 6 hrs. Retired USPS and TSA officer. Reliable and trustworthy. I own a cabin on a small private lake. I feel the pets are more comfortable in their own home but, always welcome in mine.
About: I have taken care of pets for over 30 years. Our family currently has two dogs, a cat, and a rabbit. I love animals and they are part of my family. Weekends are the best for me. I would be able to do some weeknights as well. I live close to the town of Aitkin so I am close to many families. I have a large yard out in the country. I have one friendly large dog and one small house dog. I love my pets so much.
About: With five years of experience, I've developed a deep understanding of dog care, gained from working at various doggie daycare and boarding facilities. I also provide home visits, walks, and host dogs in my own home. I foster for a rescue, ensuring that my personal fosters and client dogs are kept separate. I live with two cats, one of whom is very dog-friendly, and two female dogs who are more reserved, preferring interactions on their own terms. My male Pitbull, however, is very playful. All my dogs are comfortable crating overnight and when I'm at work. I can only board male dogs, or smaller, submissive female dogs under 30 pounds. I work part time I’m the summer with a varying schedule. During the school year I am a teacher. I am gone from 7:30-4 daily. When dogs visit my home they are leashed in the yard, and will probably keep a drag leash on them while they learn the boundaries of the home. I will crate and rotate if needed to give the dogs time to settle in. I can provide mealtime enrichment in the forms of snuffle mats, frozen meals fillable treat toys, puzzle treats, snuffle games etc. I have boundaries in my home when it comes to behavior and dogs will get breaks in their kennel as needed for cool down time or an overstimulation break. If a dog has structural needs or some behavioral concerns, I am happy to talk about how/if I can accommodate them in my home. We have an abundance of chew toys, stuffies, and balls for dogs to play with but we can also remove them if your dog has some resource guarding tendencies with new dogs. When doing drop ins in a client home I make sure to be non threatening when arriving and giving the dogs lots of space and time to get used to me before expecting to take them out of their crate. I would need a breakdown of the house rules and can hold the boundaries needed. For walks, I don’t want to be tugged around, so I can provide alternate tools to help the dog walk better, including but limited to; head halters, front clip harnesses, slip leads, prong collars(I am trained in how to fit and use them properly). This can all be a discussion before services are scheduled. I also prefer to meet all my clients beforehand to ensure a proper fit for my home. All of my dogs are utd on their Rabies & Distemper/Parvo vaccines as well as spayed and neutered. They receive flea and tick preventatives monthly. Any dog I take into my care will need to be utd on distemper/Parvo and rabies vaccines at a minimum. No UNspayed females. UNneutered males will be a case by case basis. They will also need to be on flea and tick preventatives as well. Preferably oral. Over the counter topicals don’t work well.
“Eric did a great job with our two labs. They are high energy dogs, but were properly worn out when I got home. Great communication, regular updates throughout the visit.”

Jenna S.
“Jenna has watched Ono for us on multiple occasions and does an amazing job. She has always followed Ono's feeding and walking schedule. We know Ono gets lots of snuggling and loving from Jenna too, Ono is always excited when we say we are going to see Jenna. Jenna has always worked around our travel schedules, sometimes very last minute, to figure out how to make it work. We absolutely love Jenna and think she does an amazing job, wouldn't leave our fur baby with anyone else!”
