“Amy checked in on my cats while I was out of town. She ensured they had food and water while I was away and even cleaned up any messes they made! I was so comforted to know that my cats were cared for while I was away. Amy did a great job!”


“Emma was awesome and took very good care of our 3 kitties! Even more, she is kind and caring. 100% reliable and trustworthy. I'll definitely book again with Emma!”


“Emily has been such a blessing. She not only loves Charlie (our dog) and gives her all the attention when she’s there but goes above and beyond. She has brought in packages and shoveled snow. I cannot describe how wonderful and thoughtful she is with dogs and humans!”



“Cindy was absolutely wonderful with Kit Cat Floof and is very capable of handling a moody, sneaky, skittish, lonely, timid kitty. We ? recommend her.”


About: As a dedicated and compassionate pet caregiver, I treat every animal with the same love and attention I give my own. With a calm, reliable presence and a deep understanding of each pet’s unique needs, I’m committed to providing a safe, nurturing environment where your furry family member can thrive. I currently have availability on occasional weekdays and weekends, depending on the day. I’m happy to be flexible and work around your schedule when possible! When walking dogs, I prioritize safety, exercise, and enjoyment. I tailor each walk to your pup’s energy level, age, and temperament—whether it’s a brisk stroll, a leisurely sniff-filled adventure, or some playful time outside. I always ensure your dog stays hydrated, comfortable, and happy, and I treat every walk as a chance to build trust and connection with your pet.

“Angela was so kind and easy to work with! She was flexible with her schedule and very responsive and communicative. I loved the daily updates and photos during her visits. It was our first time using this dog service and she made it so easy! Loved our experience and we’ll definitely seek Angela’s help with our dog in the future!”


“Michelle is fantastic. Our doggy Sadie asked us if we could start going out so she can see her. I really appreciate how professional she is and cannot wait till she can doggy sit for us again. 😊”


“Sophia communicated great about our two dogs and checked in consistently! We look forward to booking with her again!”


About: With 50+ years of experience caring and loving my own fur babies. I have loved and cared for many breeds, all away from a German Shepard, Shelties to a Chihuahua. Trust me the Chihuahua was more of a "so called guard dog" than my German Shepard. LOL I have more recent experience with senior dogs, but those senior dogs started out as puppies. As we all know every dog has their unique temperament. I don't hesitate in establishing clear leadership and positive relationship with your pups. I recently retired and I'm finding myself with a lot more free time. Once I got my own honey do list done. I was finding that I was spending to much time on the couch. I recently sent my little man over the rainbow bridge. Free time, too much sitting and missing my little man terribly. I needed activity and the love and joy that dogs give unconditionally. I found Rover.com and I'm hoping the rest is history. Your pup will be treated like my own. Your dogs safety and happiness is my number one concern. I will only do one dog at a time (unless you have two). So your pup will have my undivided attention. I will be taking a Pet Certified First Aid/ CPR course very soon.

“Jennifer thank you for taking care of Benji so we could go out of town for the day to a funeral at the last minute. You are so good to Benji and to us!”


“Our dog loved Kim! She was very nice and we loved that she brought her dog to play with ours during one of his visits! We would hire her again to take care of our fur baby.”


About: I have over 15 years of experience caring for dogs of various breeds and sizes, making sure they receive the attention, exercise, and love they need. My experience includes dog walking, sitting, feeding, administering medications, and providing basic training. I am skilled in reading body language and am patient and compassionate when it comes to each dog’s unique needs. Whether it’s an energetic puppy needing a long walk or a senior dog requiring more gentle care, I am able to fit the dog’s individual requirements. I’m also experienced in managing feeding schedules, maintaining a safe environment, and ensuring pets are engaged and happy while their owners are away. I am currently taking College classes online. I’m pretty open to any anytime during the day throughout the week! I am also able to work early morning or late nights too. I understand how important it is to ensure a safe, comfortable, and trustworthy environment for your pet. Whether I’m caring for them in my own home or yours, I prioritize their well being at all times. I have a fenced in yard with plenty of room! I create a secure and comfortable space for them. My home is pet friendly and pet proofed, with all potential hazards removed to ensure your pet’s safety. I have 2 friendly dogs a golden doodle and shit tzu that get along great with anyone. I believe in building trust with both you and your pet!

About: My family has adopted many rescues and began fostering as well. I have taken care of neighbors dogs and cats since I was 8 yrs old, have taken care of older pets needing meds and attention, puppies needing love, training and running out their energy, as well as fosters and rescues with anxiety and reactive behaviors. I am currently unemployed, taking a break from working in the childcare business, and want to spend more time with pets and getting outside more. I am a very organized, detail oriented person so I can keep a good schedule. I am familiar with clicker training, crate training, reactive behaviors, and varying needs of age groups.

“Michelle made my time away peace of mind that my pups were well taken care of. I appreciate how proactive and effectively she communicated and the instant updates of visits in the app. Between making the reservation and visits my one pup ended up needing medication given and Michelle had no issue going the extra mile to make sure the medications were administered. Thank you so much and Michelle will be my go to when I need help with my pups again.”


“This is our first time leaving our Nina at home and using someone outside our immediate family or friends to help. I am so impressed at how smooth it was. Maven’s professionalism, the updates with pictures and Nina’s pure content in those photos made it so much easier for us to enjoy our vacation. Thank you so much Magen, we will come back!! :)”


“Ariel is great with our cat Lola! We will continue booking her when we need a pet sitter. She is very attentive and provides great info in her updates.”


“Taylor was amazing! We had one of our dogs with an unusual morning or not wanting to eat and softer bowel movements. Taylor was quick to communicate and update us of the situation. She went above and beyond to make sure everything was taken care of and we were all on the same page. I would have handled the situation just as Taylor had and I’m glad she was there to ease our worries. Will definitely be reaching out again next time we are needing a dog sitter.”


About: I have lived with both dogs and cats my whole life. I always have time to care for them which includes feeding them, taking them out to potty multiple times during the day and giving them love when they ask for it! I have had dogs as small as cocker spaniel sizes up to mastiffs and pitbulls. I’ve also had many cats throughout my life. I currently have one orange tabby cat and recently rescued a husky mix. I love watching TV or doing homework next to them. I also volunteered at the Animal Humane Society in Saint Paul and have learned to care and love for animals way more than I already do! I’m a student at the University of Minnesota and only have classes in the mornings, so my afternoons would be free after that every day. There is many trails by my home where I live and always walk my doggy there when I want to be active or take him to do his business. I also enjoy taking my dog to dog parks where he can run as much as he wants. I’m currently training my pup to listen to me with a snap of a finger, pat on the side, or click with the tongue. I think this is important because everyone should build a relationship with their pet based on trust, love, and respect.

“Anna did such a great job! She took good care of my cat and sent me an update card and pictures for every visit. I will deifinitely be rebooking!”


“Allison was great! It was awesome getting photo updates while I was gone, and knowing that my cat Rajah was being cared for. Would love to use Allison again in the future when we’re out of town.”
