“Sheryl did a fantastic job caring for our cats! She’s an excellent communicator and very thorough with the check ins. I felt very comfortable being away knowing my cats were in great hands!”
“This is our first time using Rover and Kirsten was the best pet sitter for our introduction to the services. She made us feel really comfortable meeting with her and our cat (Mochi), prior to her visit with him. We loved seeing photo updates at each check-in, and so great seeing him out and not hiding, cause he's a shy boy until he feels comfortable. Thank you so much, Kirsten! 💙”
“Elizabeth was prompt in communication when we reached out to schedule and did a great job of keeping us informed on how things were going with our dogs while we were out of town! She sent pictures and videos at each visit which was so reassuring to see that they were doing great in her her care!”
About: I treat and love all dogs as they are my own. I have experience with training puppies and helping older dogs. I have been around dogs since I was a child so I tend to form deep bonds with all animals I come in contact with. I am currently not working so I have plenty of time, but with a full time job I like to use my breaks and lunch hours to walk the dogs I care for. I provide the upmost care for the dogs I am caring for. I keep a clean well managed environment so the animals feel well managed and happy. I love to take them for walks to enjoy the sunshine and fresh air and getting plenty of play time in to release pent up energy.
“Britny really helped us out on short notice and did drop-in visits with our pups. She was responsible and had good communication. We'd definitely use her again. Thanks so much Britny”
About: I don’t just show up—I take time to understand each pet’s unique personality, routines, and needs. Whether it's an energetic puppy who needs a long walk and playtime, or a senior dog who thrives on gentle care and consistency, I adjust my approach to make sure they feel safe, loved, and at ease. I currently work full time as a Public Health Nurse so my schedule is very flexible; I'm looking for a way to reconnect and have more time with pups :) We have a 10 year old English Bulldog who is our first "born". She has a run of the house but when we are watching other dogs, we are sure to separate the dogs to provide a safe and relaxing environment for each of them.

I am very confident and comfortable being around and helping take care of many cats at once. I feel I am very experienced with taking care of cats and can’t wait to help care for yours! I am currently working a part time job from 9am- 4pm, so l'll have plenty of time to help take care of your pets! I am available after 4pm on the weekdays and all day during the weekends. I have a very flexible schedule that also allows me to do overnight stays! I specialize in cat sitting. I will come in and make sure they get their food and water and bathroom breaks. I'll play with them to make sure they're feeling happy and energized. If I stay overnight I’ll check on them many times during the day, feed and play with them. Making sure they’re alright and feel comfortable.

About: I've grown up with dogs my entire life and I currently have a 7 year old, large breed dog. He comes with his own health related needs, including abnormal development of his hips and arthritis. This has allowed me to learn how to handle and care for dogs with similar issues, as well as be cautious and considerate of the needs of the animals I care for. I am able to follow special instructions and make sure I’m giving your pet the care they deserve. I’ve volunteered at an animal shelter for several years, providing mostly socialization and walking of the pets. I work limited hours during the summer months, but typically am working 7:30-4:00pm during the end of August-May. With most of my summers off, I am looking to spend additional time during the day to play and care for your pet(s)! I have a Great Dane/mastiff mix and he is my whole world! He has high standards for his care and knows it too. I will treat your pet just like I’d treat my own. I will do my best to make your pet feel comfortable and happy during their time with me!
About: Have raised dogs up at my parents farm in Minnesota and fostered puppies, bottle-fed kittens, cats and lonely adult dogs through the GBHS and PAWS Atlanta. I work from home with no travel so my schedule is flexible. I love animals with my whole heart and sometimes I don’t think we deserve all the kindness and love they give us. I give away free belly rubs and you will never have to worry with your best friend in my care. Willing to send as many updates of their care to you as you’d like - I’m a crazy cat Mom! I’ve taken care of older dogs, sick dogs who need medication, high-energy dogs, puppy mill puppies, dogs with anxiety, and cats of all shapes and sizes. I have special experience in caring for cats with asthma, diabetes, chronic kidney disease and IBS. I can pill, give subcutaneous fluids, test for blood sugar, and more. I can’t wait to meet your furry friend! I work full-time as a copywriter but work from home, so my schedule is flexible! I live in the Grant Park neighborhood and am willing to travel depending on the pet care needs. I have a two-bedroom apartment kept at a comfortable temperature with lots of cat toys, cat beds, cat trees, scratchers and cat treats. When I'm caring at my client's home, I keep it spotless, clean up any messes and make sure it is tidy and cozy when my client returns home.
About: I’ve had the pleasure of taking care of friends and families pets since I can remember. I also grew up having anywhere from 1-3 dogs in the house. Once becoming a teenager, I would watch family and friends dogs/cats overnight or as needed. I love all fur babies and always willing to help make them feel safe while their family is gone. I am currently working full time as an phlebotomist and my schedule varies but willing to help as much as I can when I can!! I am all about keeping the fur babies in their routine while their family is gone. I currently have two dogs that are easily anxious when their routine is thrown off, so I understand the importance of it.
About: My name is Zoe and I am an active young professional looking to start my own pet care business. My wife and I live in a beautiful home in Kasson. We have an energetic, five year old golden retriever that is going through training to become a therapy dog. We also have a three year old Great Dane that is starting the process as well. I started my own pet care business at the age of nine so that I could take care of animals. It blossomed into an amazing job that helped put me through college at the University of Wisconsin- River Falls. This year I will graduate with my Bachelors degree in Communications Studies. I have experience walking all sizes of dogs and love to do fun activities and training. If your pet has any behaviors that you would like to work on such as potty training or problem barking I have experience in training as well. I also can do overnight house sitting and take care of any other pets in the home. Whether your dog is young or old, you can be sure that they will have a great time with me! I’m currently working 8am-4pm Monday through Friday in downtown Rochester, MN. I am available before and after work for any of your pet care needs. I have a large fenced in yard that is perfect for running and playing. I live in a residential neighborhood that also has some walking trails. I am happy to fulfill any requests for pet care in your home too!
About: I have always enjoyed animal sitting and training as a hobby. My wife and I grew up in farm families and have cared for many animals. We have boarded and trained multiple horses, as well as raised calfs and chicks. We have many family members and friends we pet sit for. We work full time in Rochester, but our schedules are flexible enough to reach out and request us to meet up for boarding on weekdays. We are able to meet you for pickup if needed. We are also both home before 7:00am and After 5:00pm. During the weekend our times are generally flexible to fit your needs. We live on 5 acres just outside of Spring Valley Mn. Giving your fur babies plenty of space to run around and play. We met in the Army where I continue to serve in the MN National Guard as a Medic. We currently have two boys that love animals as much as we do. We allow your pets to be uncrated in our home and are more than willing to crate them during the day if that’s what you desire.

Hannah M.
“I've know Hannah her whole life, because I'm her dad. Sha has always cared for others, including animals, more than herself. We've had dogs since she was about 10 years old so well over half her life. The best example though, was we had a close friend who lived near us in Minnesota and she called us on Super Bowl Sunday from Florida one year and said she needed a favor. Turns out another friend of hers had a dog who had gotten very sick and needed surgery at the UM in Minneapolis. Her family had agreed to look after the dog when she was released from UM. All of a sudden they backed out because of how sick the dog was. So we got the call to see if we would help. Without hesitation, Hannah and I agreed to split shifts and stay at their house day and night until they got back a few days later so their dog wouldn't be alone and could stay in her own house. To this day, we still tell stories about staying with Ruby the dog. Hannah will make sure your pet(s) will be cared for the same way you take care of them. Hannah's Labradoodle Bentley is at my feet as I type this, if that tells you if we love pets or not. We've adopted rescues, strays and used a breeder, so we've had a good mix. You won't be disappointed with the care your pets get from Hannah. Steve M.”
Zoe L.
“Zoe began watching our dog Max and our cats since she was 10. Always knew they were in great care while we traveled. Zoe cared for them in our home whenever we needed until she left for college. We would highly recommend Zoe without exception! She's the best!!!”
Trevor & Alexa M.Star Sitter
“Trevor is truly remarkable with animals, especially dogs and cats. His dedication and hard work when it comes to caring for them is truly inspiring. His love for animals is evident in every interaction, and it's heartwarming to see how he and his wife, Alexa, share this passion. They create a loving and nurturing environment for their furry friends, making them feel right at home. Trevor and Alexa’s kindness and commitment to these animals make them an exceptional caregiver, and they undoubtedly brings joy and comfort to their lives.”
