Pet Sitting East Bank-Nicollet Island

“Scott was great with Birdie and Mogie. Communication and flexibility were top shelf and both of our cats bonded with Scott right away. I would highly recommend this sitter and Scott will be my first choice next time I need someone to look after our cats.”

“Such a great dog sitter! My dog is a senior dog with quite a few specific needs - meds, food, etc. Noah was so wonderful! He did everything I asked and more. I know my dog was in great hands and that he truly cared about her. Thank you for taking the stress out of leaving for the week.”

About: I provide attentive, reliable dog walking services for pet parents who want more than just a quick walk around the block—they want someone who treats their dog’s time outside as an essential part of their overall well-being. I’ve spent my entire life around dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments, and I bring that lifelong experience into every walk. I understand canine behavior, energy levels, and the importance of structured, enriching walks that go beyond simple exercise. My priority is always your dog’s safety, happiness, and comfort. Every walk is conducted with care, awareness, and consistency so your dog feels secure and engaged from start to finish. What you can expect: - Professional, dependable scheduling and punctual arrivals - Calm, confident handling of dogs of all temperaments - Walks tailored to your dog’s pace, energy, and needs - Full attention—no distractions, no shortcuts - Clear communication with updates and photos after each walk I believe great dog walking is about building trust—not just with the owner, but with the dog. My goal is to become a consistent, familiar presence your pet looks forward to seeing! If you’re looking for someone who treats dog walking as a craft rather than a chore, I’d love to connect! Pet care is central to both my current routine and the career I’m actively building. I am transitioning into dog walking as my full-time focus, so my schedule is intentionally structured around availability, consistency, and giving each pet my full attention. I have availability during for blocks of time each day: morning, midday, afternoon, and evening. I plan my day around these commitments rather than fitting them in around other obligations, which ensures that every walk is treated as a priority rather than an afterthought. Ultimately, pet care isn’t just part of my routine—it is the foundation of my professional path moving forward. Every dog I walk is treated with the same level of care, attention, and responsibility as if they were my own, because their safety, comfort, and happiness always come first. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow all provided instructions closely to maintain their normal routine and environment. I prioritize keeping each pet comfortable by respecting their established feeding schedules, walking routines, and any specific behavioral or medical needs. I make it a point to ensure they feel calm, secure, and well-attended to while their owner is away or unavailable. During walks, I focus on safe, structured, and engaging outings tailored to each dog’s energy level, temperament, and preferences. I stay fully attentive throughout the walk, maintaining control and awareness of surroundings to ensure safety at all times. I avoid distractions and prioritize a calm, confident handling style so each dog feels secure and supported. In both settings, I treat every home with care and professionalism—leaving spaces exactly as I found them and maintaining clear communication with owners as needed. My approach is built on trust, consistency, and respect for both the pet and the owner’s space. Also I have a super-loving golden retriever who loves to make new friends! So if your dog is looking for more social time, meeting Cooper is an option as well!

About: I've been around dogs my entire life and have always had at least two dogs in my home. Growing up, my family also fostered dogs of all ages, sizes, breeds, and personalities, which gave me experience helping dogs adjust to new environments and understanding their unique needs. Through fostering, I learned how to care for puppies, energetic young dogs, senior dogs, and pets that may need extra patience and attention. In addition to my experience with dogs, I work as a Youth Athletic Director, where I am responsible, dependable, and skilled at creating a safe, positive environment while communicating effectively with families. Those same qualities carry over into the care I provide for pets. I treat every dog like part of the family and focus on giving them individualized attention, plenty of exercise, affection, and consistency with their routine. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident and connected while you're away. My goal is to make sure your dog feels comfortable, happy, and well cared for from the moment I arrive. Currently, I'm on summer break from my job, which gives me extra flexibility and availability throughout the week. This allows me to spend more quality time with the pets in my care, whether that means walks, playtime, sticking to feeding schedules, or simply providing companionship and attention. I enjoy staying active, so incorporating pet care into my daily routine is something I genuinely look forward to and make a priority. Whether I'm caring for pets in my home or in a client's home, my priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while maintaining as much of their normal routine as possible. I follow each pet's feeding schedule, exercise needs, medication requirements (if needed), and any special instructions provided by the owner. Having grown up with dogs my entire life and helping care for foster dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities, I'm comfortable adapting to each dog's unique needs. I provide plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and companionship while also respecting the routines and training owners have established. When caring for pets in a client's home, I treat their space with respect and work to keep their pet's routine consistent to reduce stress. When pets are in my care, I make sure they receive regular exercise, supervision, affection, and a safe environment where they can feel at home. I also keep owners updated with photos and messages so they can have peace of mind knowing their pet is happy and well cared for

“It was our first time leaving our puppy with someone who wasn't family & we were very nervous. Madisen made us feel so comfortable with her, sending photos all day & hanging out with our pup. 5/5 service!”

“Sierra did a great job of showing up on time and caring for my kitty. I was really comfortable with her during our meet and greet, Peepers was too so I knew it would be a good fit. I will definitely look for Sierra’s availability next time I need to travel. Thanks!”

About: I have experience caring for my family’s 3 cats for over 12 years. I have administered medicine, cleaned litter boxes, and picked up after accidents. I can adapt to different personalities, including nervous and reserved. I also have experience with dogs as I cared for my cousin’s dog on weekdays in highschool, lived with a roommate’s dog in college, and also recently lived with a puppy and walked her regularly from 5 months old to 1.5 years old. I work from home so my schedule can be flexible depending on the day! I also have 1 hour lunch breaks from 12-1pm every day. I am available on weekends as needed. I can walk your dog, play with your cat, give an afternoon snack, or clean the litter box! I love petting animals and will provide the type of care they need.

“Addison was absolutely amazing with Phoebe. She was very thorough in her daily updates and always provided lots of pictures. I have a more anxious cat around people and she was very good at respecting her boundaries and listening to her cues. I would definitely recommend Addison to anyone looking for someone to watch their pets while they are away :)”

“Chloe was a superb dog sitter! We are so grateful she could stop in to care for our senior dog when we needed extra support. Would totally have Chloe back again.”

About: I have had many different breeds of dogs including terriers, pinschers, and my current dog Lulu the chihuahua. I am very patient with senior dogs. I have 2 dogs (a chihuahua and a chowchow puppy) and 1 cat. Working on training the puppy currently. My cat has FIV and has health problems from it. I am experienced in handling senior dogs and dogs that may need special attention. My dog is my best friend and not just my pet. I am always gentle and understanding with her. I am always attentive to her needs.

“Larissa is caring and gentle with my dogs. She has exceptional communication. She handled a 8 week puppy and a 2 year old high energy GSD all within one visit and did an amazing job! I have great amount of trust in her, 10/10 recommend!”

Hailey L.

“Thank you so much Ashley!”

“Sydney took great care of my three cats while I was away, and I was so appreciative of all the detailed updates and photos each visit. She even gave updates on what kind of food my cats seemed more interested in that day (note to self: they are out of their beef pate phase!). I highly recommend Sydney for cat sitting and will book again! She went above and beyond to make sure all of their needs were met, including playing with them and making sure they were comfortable while I was gone. My babies were happy and healthy when I returned. It was such a relief knowing my cats were in safe hands, and I truly appreciated Sydney!”

About: 🐾 I’ve been around dogs for as long as I can remember, and I started dog sitting for friends, family, and neighbors when I was 10. When I got my own dog at 14, I fell in love with training and taught her over 20 tricks through patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement. Over the years, I’ve built strong relationships with both pets and owners, and I’ve been lucky to receive referrals from people who trust me with their dogs. I love making sure dogs are not just cared for, but genuinely happy and engaged. Whether that’s walks, playtime, enrichment games, training practice, or just giving them lots of attention and affection, I always try to match each dog’s personality and energy level. I’m comfortable with dogs of different sizes, temperaments, and energy levels, and I always want them to feel safe, loved, and relaxed while you’re away. I’m a college student currently on summer break, so I have plenty of time throughout the day for walks, drop-ins, playtime, and giving pets lots of attention. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, so pet care is something I truly look forward to every day. I’m also studying Animal Science, which has made me even more passionate about animal care and behavior. I always want pets to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I pay close attention to routines, behavior, and comfort levels, and I’ll treat your pets and home with the same care and respect I would my own.

“Queenie was excellent in taking care of our cats. We loved the updates and pictures provided and we appreciated her flexibility and assistance when one of our feeders gave out during our trip. Everything looked great when we came back and the cats were super lucky to have her. Thanks so much Queenie!”

“Teresa was great! Easy to communicate with and followed everything wonderfully - that too with puppies! Would definitely look to have her watch the babies again!”
