6. Laura Jean F.

About: Hello neighbor! I was blessed to share 60 years with wonderful dogs, then 5 years ago I was bitten and smitten by a feral kitten, named her Irl, and am forever enchanted ^. .^~ I am retired after 20 years as a MN CPA and 20 dealing table games in NV. Now I enjoy having time for unhurried visits to give neighborhood pets comfort, care, petting, and playtime. Following the golden rule, I will always treat you, your home, your time, your privacy, your pets and your plants with respect and the kindest of care.


7. Penny W.
“Penny has taken phenomenal care of my dogs for years. She is not only professional but also incredibly warm and caring, which was evident from the way my dogs instantly took to her. Throughout Penny's pet-sitting periods, she has kept me updated with photos and detailed messages, letting me know how my pups were doing. It was so reassuring to see them happy, well-fed, and enjoying their time with her. She went above and beyond to ensure they were comfortable and entertained, even taking them on extra walks and playtime sessions. If you're looking for a reliable, compassionate, and attentive pet sitter, I highly recommend Penny!”


8. Olivia R.
“Olivia loves our 2 year old puppy like her own! Extremely responsive and responsible. We love being able to travel knowing Winnie is so well taken care of and loved. She sends fun pictures too so we get to see what the pup is up to while we're away. Olives comes highly recommended.”


9. Jessica J.

“Oliver did great with Jessica! He has been anxious with other walkers in the past, but had no issues with Jessica at all. She is easy to work with, flexible, professional, and of course, gets along well with Oliver :)”


10. Annie L.

“Annie was responsive even with a last minute request to stop by to walk our golden. Very smooth process and would definitely consider reaching out to Annie again. Thank you for the pictures!”


11. Brenna B.

“Brenna was amazing with Little D! We were on vacation and booked her for neighborhood walks. Upon our first meeting she asked a lot of questions and took time to get to know D. She provided a helpful update after each walk and lots of pics and videos. It provided a bright spot as we missed our little guy. Thank you Brenna!”


12. Siri G.
“Siri is a fantastic dog sitter. She loves our dogs and they love her. We have a senior dog who needs some special care and a rambunctious puppy who needs a different kind of special care and Siri is amazing with both of our dogs. She has cared for our sweet dogs when I’m at home working and when we are away from home and I have 100% trust and confidence in Siri. If you want a smart, loving, fun, experienced, capable, trustworthy dog sitter, Siri is all of those things and more.”


13. Hailey D.
About: I live blocks away from a dog park that I loving bringing pups too and taking them on walks exploring downtown Saint Paul, especially during the summer! I work full time during the week but also have flexibility to WFH. I also live very close to my work so can run home at any time! I have a 8 year old Olde English Bulldog who is a lazy companion to keep your pup company! My apartment is very open for free roaming. If your dog does not get along with dogs, my dog Bronx will happily spend time at his grandma’s house during your pups stay (he loves his grandmas cause she gives him lots of treats!)


14. Kelsey S.

About: Hello, I’m Kelsey! In my professional life, I am a restaurant manager. During my free time, I enjoy exercising, burying my nose in a book, and writing fiction. I am also the proud mama to two sweet rescue dogs. Please note that if you select me for any service besides dog walking, they are present. But I don’t have any children, cats, or critters, so when I commit to a booking, your pets receive my full dedication and attention! A little information about my little ones: Jane is a forty-pound lab mix who is typically more interested in cuddling with humans than playing. August is a spunky Miniature Aussie whose only interest is fetch. They’ve both been well-socialized and I keep them up-to-date with vaccinations/treatments. Please don't hesitate to reach out with any questions not addressed in my profile! I strive to maintain the routine your dogs are accustomed to, so if this includes trips to the dog park or daily walks, these are things I would love to know. I provide a safe and clean environment, consistent feeding/medication, and daily positive attention to your furry family member while always following the instructions you provide.


15. Rachael L.
“Rachael is a proper animal person. She often looked after my cat in London who is a prickly little fellow on account of being a rescue. The little man always warmed to her and I felt very at ease knowing Rachael would be looking after him. She is reliable and proactive and will put your pet first.”


16. Thomas B.
“Thomas B. (Tommy) has been a trusted caregiver for our pets and kids for over nine years, and I can’t recommend him highly enough. I’ve always felt completely at ease trusting him in my home, never once having a concern. He’s positive, respectful, and genuinely loves animals, providing attentive care to both our dog and our cat. Tommy is the kind of person you can rely on—responsible, trustworthy, caring and always going above and beyond.”


17. Katie S.

“Gracie had a great time on her walk with Katie! Katie was great with communications working around some app glitches, punctual, and was very accommodating to Gracie’s neurosis : ) Will be walking with her again for sure!”


18. Celia M.
“Celia has taken care of our miniature poodle a few times now and we absolutely love her! Our dog is very particular on who he trusts and he instantly made a connection with her. She has stayed at our house and we have not had one concern. She is very responsible, respectful, caring and on time. We would recommend Celia to anyone who would ask and will continue using her for our caregiver for years to come!”


19. Kaelyn Z.
“Kaelyn is amazing with our 2 rescue dogs! She builds a rapport immediately and is very reliable! She’s seasoned at walking, playing with and administering medication. Our minds are at ease when we know Kaelyn is with our pups :)”


20. Mary Louise B.
“Probably the best caregiver I know. Has extensive knowledge about dogs and always has solutions. Also just great with dogs in general because her family always had dogs growing up. Highly recommend.”
