About: I had a dog growing up for several years where I not only took care of, but she was also my friend and companion! Growing up with a dog was a good responsibility and taught me how to care for something else. I’m currently in occupational therapy school and I have a month and a half break where I am looking to earn some extra cash! I would be available on weekdays or weekends. I will create a safe, and trusting environment for your pet while providing tailored care specifically to your own pet. I want to provide a comfortable environment and build rapport with your pet. Meeting up with your pet prior before providing pet care will ensure this safe environment.

About: I’ve taken care of a few dogs in the past few years and it’s usually friends and family. I am a big fitness person so whenever I walk dogs it’s usually a 1-2 mile walk, and whenever I pet sit I like give dogs a bath to have them smell fresh and clean when the owners get back and I absolutely love playing with the dogs. I also am very kind and gentle with them!! I am currently unemployed so I am free whenever you need a sitter/walker! I am up before 9:30am everyday and I go on lots of walks!! I have one dog at my house that will keep your fur baby company. I have an open back yard with lots of other dogs as well!!
9. Marianne N.
“Marrianne was able to stop in last minute for me to let my dogs after my puppy escaped kennel. My dogs seemed to really like her! I am rebooking with her for all my future needs while in Detroit Lakes!”
10. Christian S.
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats almost my entire life. I have had pet dogs to take care of whenever I got home from school when I was younger. I have taken care of everything from teacup schnauzers to great danes. I am a college student but all of my work and classes are online so I have more then enough time to take care of any pets that may need it. At home I always hangout with my dogs in the living room and make sure to notice their cues for when they need to go outside. I also have my dogs on a feeding schedule. I bathe them whenever needed and make sure to play with them whenever they want. I ALWAYS ensure I am careful of what I do with food and garbage as I know the consequences can be disastrous.
11. Emily P.
About: I took loving animals to the next level. I grew up around all kinds of animals, around farms, rode horses, had my own pets, but that wasn’t enough! I went to college and majored in wildlife conservation and ecology. I then became a zookeeper. Taking care of animals large and small was my profession. Nowadays, I work for the DNR as a fish biologist. All my professional experience of caring for animals aside, I have my own lovely Australian Shepard named Scout who is my best friend and shadow. Growing up, our family dog named cocoa lived to 15 years and taught me how to care for these family members and the responsibility it requires. I cannot imagine a life without pets and the joy they bring to all of us. I promise my experiences goes beyond just experience but I always have care and love for each animal I encounter. My current position is seasonal as the lakes freeze and melt. That said, I'm available most days and hours to play with your furry friends and provide them care. Let's connect and see what would work best for both our schedules and your pets needs. My rule in life is to treat people, things, and places with as much respect as if I was the one who owned it. My care for your pets is priority but so is the care of your place as well. I'm willing to play, take for walks, go on hikes, crate, and basic training if desired for your dog. We can always discuss your wants/needs when that arises.

About: I've always taken care of pets, my family has always had 3+ animals; whether it's horses, chickens, dogs, cats, or fish. I have an elderly dog at home who is recovering from a back injury, so he has a hard time going to the bathroom, and I am very good at helping with that. I used to have a dog that had a lot of seizures, so I know how to care for a dog when they are having a seizure. We also now have 2 puppies that I helped train now! I have also taken care of my neighbors cats, to which she has around 5. There I just did daily feedings and pettings. I also took care of my aunt's dogs numerous times, she has 3 dogs. I fed, washed, and walked her dogs. We also have 3 cats and they all love me! Always running to me because they want pets and to be brushed! I'm currently just looking for more work. I really love animals and thought this would be a great choice! Monday and Tuesday I'm available after 6 and 4 respectfully and I'm available all day Wednesday and Thursday! I care for the pets in my home by making sure they are properly expending their energy outside, instead of tearing apart couches and carpet! I know how to create dogs and cats if necessary! I also know how to walk dogs with no back leg function, and if that's the case let me know and I will prepare properly for it!
19. Crystal J.
“Crystal recently took care of my 3 cats over a 10 day period and they were just as happy and calm upon return as the day I left! Gave individual attention to each, administered medication, was very responsive and even sent updates with pictures/video. She has also watched my temperamental dogs in the past with care and ease. Her past experience working at a Veterinary clinic helps to relieve my own anxiety when leaving my pets, as I know they are in capable hands. Highly recommend Crystal to anyone looking for a compassionate and competent person to look after their furry family members!”
