We booked Suzanne last minute to care for our two dogs in our home. Suzanne went above and beyond to make sure our dogs were well cared for. She kept us very informed as we had asked for, and we felt confident they were in great hands. We will absolutely use Suzanne when we need care again!

Alison was a very attentive and communicative sitter when watching my dog George. He was sick at the time and she very appropriately reached out as needed with questions. I wouldn’t hesitate to hire her again!

I can not say how much it meant to be able to have someone come over to take care of our senior dog. We were able to enjoy our daughter's wedding in Cannon Falls without being worried or distracted. Our grumpy old dog was better for Anna then he is for us.If you need a dog sitter, I recommend Anna you will not be disappointed.

Absolutely love Madeline. Gildi took to her the minute she walked in the door. She asked good questions about what Gildi likes and doesn’t like. Sent photos over the weekend. She is courteous and a very pleasant young lady. Wouldn’t have even known she stayed the night with Gildi as everything was as I left it. Thank you Madeline, I never worried once while I was at my family reunion. Will definitely call on her again.

Mia took such good care of our pets, that when we came home we could tell! They weren’t overly needy, a good sign of excessive cuddling with Mia! She also left our place more clean than how we left it. We are so impressed with her.

Brittany did awesome with my foster pup! She went above and beyond for him. My pup is scared of new people and she came over beforehand to make him feel more comfortable. 10/10 would recommend Brittany for any dog sitting needs.

About: I have always loved dogs since I was a kid. I was always reading books and watching tv shows like "Dogs 101" to learn about the different breeds and needs. I would also help out with any family members or family friend's dog(s) that needed watching. Ever since I was 16 years old I have been sitting dogs and every time my parents leave for vacation, I will watch the family dog for as long as they need. I believe dogs deserve the utmost love and care while they owners are away, insuring a happy reunion. I'm currently available all day, everyday. I can visit your pet in the morning, afternoon, and night depending on what fits their care the best. I can provide a safe, comfortable environment as making a dog feel safe and secure in their own home is top priority. I can give baths, give medication orally, play, explore, and love them generously. I will make sure there will be as least of a disturbance possible when I visit clients home, making sure it is the same as when they left. Pets deserve the most love and top care while their owners are away.

About: I've been around dogs my entire life, both big and small! I've helped take care of my family dogs since I was 7, and been working with dogs beyond my family for 2 years. I have experience working with puppies, senior dogs, and dogs with disabilities. Your pup will never be wanting for affection! I'm working full-time during the week, so I am available for house sitting on weekends. I am available for dog walking and play dates during the weekday evenings and weekends. I can provide your fur baby with the bathing, brushing, medicating, exploring, and loving that they need to thrive. I have a small, friendly pup of my own who can play with your dog, and a car that can take them to the dog park if desired. Otherwise, I'm more than happy to provide them every comfort of their own home.

Nick is an awesome pet sitter! He and his wife, Mary Kate, took great care of our dogs and cats during a last minute weekend stay. Helo and Lupa loved spending time outside and playing fetch with them. They sent pictures and were quick to respond to texts. We’ve booked him again for another weekend so we highly recommend him and Mary Kate!

About: I am the owner of a 5 year old black lab named Kenji! Being a pet lover, I am hoping to help others on this app as it has helped me. I like to stay active with my pet and take walks daily. I also care for my parents dog (all 3 of them) of different sizes. Pets are like family, and they need care that is more than satisfactory. Pets can be a lot of work, and as a caring individual I am here to help. I am employed full time but am hoping to help others like this app has helped me. I have reliable transportation and open weekends plus evenings. Hoping we are a great match so that I can care for your pet! I am employed full time, so my care hours are slightly limited. I will be available on weekends and weekday evenings after 4:00pm throughout the year. I understand the anxiety of leaving your pet with a stranger, I will take care of them as if they are my own! I am diligent with communication and happy completing any direction you give!
