“Anne truly cares about the pets that stay with her. She provided frequent updates and sent lots of photos, which I really appreciated as it was my first time leaving Winona overnight. I would highly recommend Anne to any person in need of a pet sitter!!”


2. Joscelyn P.

“Not only does LV love Azzure but so do we! She is dependable, flexible, consistent! We use her during the fall a lot but also for all school breaks!!! We appreciate her and you would as well!!!”


4. Jennifer T.


“They were awesome with Finn. He only stayed for a short visit because of a change of plans but I still got plenty of great photos of him playing in the yard and being a good boy which was great”


5. Erin D.


“Friendly, personable, caring personality. Although I told Erin, she didn't need to be keep me abreast about Bailey each day, she did anyway with pics/video and text communications. We were able to setup a meet/greet before booking which greatly helps. The fenced in backyard allowed Bailey to be free bc currently doesn't have that option. My first time using Rover and the experience went smoothly and much better than anticipated.”


6. Karisa E.

“Karisa was fantastic! Our dog is older (15) and can get a little nervous, so a caring, home environment is what we were looking for. There was such peace of mind leaving our pet with Karisa. She even sent pictures so we could see how cozy Tilly was in their home and she was sent home with a “goodie bag” of homemade doggie treats! We highly recommend!!!”


7. Kristen O.


“Kristen and her home are inviting and wonderful! We felt so comfortable leaving our pup with her, and can tell she took expert care of her and gave her lots of love. If you’re looking for peace of mind with where your pet stays, we highly recommend Kristen!”


8. Stephanie M.

“This was our first time taking our dogs to a sitter and Stephanie has set the bar high! She and her husband Chris made us feel comfortable immediately leaving Marley and Mack with them- especially over the holidays. Stephanie sent pictures and updates daily that we greatly appreciated. We will definitely reach out to Stephanie again!”


9. Jessica A.

“A big Kudos to Jessica and her family for watching Simone I was able to get a mini vacation that I so desperately needed. I'd recommend her any day to anyone to watch their babies as Simone is not my pet she's my baby girl. Again a big thank you and Have a Happy New Year ????”


10. Kyla H.

“Kyla did a great job watching our two boxers for a full week. She took lots of pictures of them throughout the week. I would recommend her to anyone.”


11. Agnatha W.

“Agnatha was amazing. We did the meet and greet while my dog, Cookie, was in perfect health. Unfortunately that evening my dog would need emergency surgery. My hotel wasn't refundable and I was worried about leaving my dog who now had to wear a cone and take medication. But Agnatha said she would be perfectly fine taking care of Cookie post surgery. When we picked Cookie up she was happy and healthy.”

18. Derik G.
“Derik has always done an excellent job taking care of my babies. I have two pigs and they are a lot different to care for than other animals, but Derik made sure to follow all my instructions to the T. He takes extra time out of his day to spend with my piggies and love on them. He’s an 11 out of 10! I will definitely recommend his services to all my family and friends!”


19. April C.

“April and her kids were great with Whiskey. He got plays with his favorite tug toy, and a nice walk. It was only for one night but she kept me updated with pictures and messages. I appreciated all of the updates. He came home exhausted and slept soundly the entire day.”


20. Natalie E.
About: Hi there, my name is Natalie and I have been a dog lover my entire life! I am 25, a RN, and a newlywed! I have owned 2 basset hounds in my life - Claire, who passed away in 2016, and Mabel, who is currently under the care of my parents, as she didn’t adjust well to the apartment I moved in to. I have dog-sat for many families throughout high school and college, and volunteered at local animal shelters. I am looking to make some extra money in my spare time and get my “doggie fix” since my Mabel isn’t living with me at this time. Please don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any questions. I look forward to meeting your pups! As a nurse and a wife, my schedule varies, but I’m willing to be flexible and accommodating as long as I’m booked well enough in advance. I will make your pet(s) my number 1 priority. I know from my own personal experience how worrisome it can be to trust a stranger with your pet(s). I hope I am someone who can relieve that worry for you.
