“Allysa really has a rapport with Lexi already! She did a great job keeping her happy.”
“Wonderful experience with Kailee! Lots of love, activity and came home to a happy sleepy pup. We appreciated all the updates and photos! We would be lucky to use Kailee again in the future.”
“Eleanor was so wonderful with our two big girls! She’s got a great energy and they seemed to love her at first meeting! Eleanor also took good care of our house while we were gone. And, sent us pics and videos while we were away. We highly recommend Eleanor!”
“Morgan was great taking care of our dogs while we were out of town! Excellent communication and provided lots of extra snuggles.”
“Aphra is an absolute champion! She showed up on time, was incredibly kind, and went above and beyond from start to finish. She took the time to interview me before even meeting my dogs, making sure she understood everything they needed. Throughout the day, she stayed in touch, sent photos, asked questions, and gave me complete peace of mind. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience”
“Lynn was AMAZING! She took care of my pups for a lengthy trip and I came home to two extremely happy puppies. She kept me updated throughout my time away, sent lots of photos, and took them on lots of walks. I booked her pretty last minute and she made sure the meet and greet process was swift and easy!”
“Paul was great! He had a lot of patience with our slightly difficult cats, sent us lots of updates on how things were going and left the house looking great! I'd highly recommend his services if you're looking for a caring and reliable sitter. Thanks Paul, the kitties are excited to see you again soon.”
“Very caring cat sitter.My cat, Vagner had progressive kidney disease for sometime. It got much worse when I was out of the country. He was walking and fell over in Perry’s presence. He took him to the vet right away. Vagner had lost 5 pounds in 4 days! Perry messaged me that the vet wanted to talk to me. Unfortunately I had to give permission to have him put down before I got back as I didn’t want him to suffer. Perry did all the right things and appreciate him very much. When he dropped of my house key he brought me a Pet Sympathy Card. I would highly recommend him.”
About: I have been around pets for as long as I remember. I have helped feed, bath, walk and take care of animals as small as kittens and puppies and as big as Great Danes. I am good with all animals. I have 2 fur baby cats of my own 1 year old and an 8 year old. I’ll take care of your pets as one of my own. ❤️ I currently work M-F 8am-4:30pm so depending on where you live I can do drop in care early morning and evenings. I’m available for house sitting Saturdays and Sundays. I’d love to take your pets for a walk during the weekday evening when it’s not too hot for your pet, but they can still enjoy the daylight. While in your home, I will give your pet lots of love ❤️ I will feed them based on instructions from you. If needed I can crate them when I’m away. I will take your dogs out for a walk with each drop in visit and I’ll make sure to walk them 2x a day when house sitting as to give your dogs enrichment and exercise. If you have cats I will play with them for 30 minutes per drop in visit and a minimum of an hour each day I am house sitting. You can ensure that all your pets will be cared with the utmost care and respect and love that they all deserve
About: I share my genuine love for long walks and outdoor adventures—because a tired dog is a happy dog! I pair that exercise with plenty of treats, endless smiles, and lots of love. Whether it’s a relaxed stroll or a playful romp, I make sure your pup feels safe, happy, and truly cared for every step of the way I have a full time remote (work from home) career with flexibility to add some walks and cuddles to my day. I am able to drop in for a walk/feeding/attention or I can accommodate extra furry friends at our home. I am a wife and mom of an active family of 5 with 3 college kids and a 5 year old golden retriever. I live in a quiet neighborhood on a lake where I spend as much time as possible outdoors.
“Abby was great! Easy to communicate with and took great care of our cats!”
About: I've taken care of dogs since I was 12. I would take my neighbors dogs on walks around the neighborhood multiple times a day. I would also feed and play with them. I am currently flexible with hours and could work anytime you need me to. I plan on going to college this summer, but it's online so I can work around it when that time comes. I will follow the owners requests and always keep an eye on your pets. I can make sure their fenced in, on a leash, and always watched.I will make sure they are safe and cared for. I understand that this job is important to pet owners and I want them to know that they can trust me with their pets. 🙂

“Kamiya was great with Cooper. Communication was a big part of that. She sent photos of him knowing i would muss him, and expressed concerns of him not eating, which is typical for him so i just asked her to give him some of his lick em treats, which she did. He seems very comfortable with her. Will ask her to watch him in the future.”
About: My house was known as the zoo. Reptiles, ferrets, birds, a goat, horses, a pony, dogs, cats, prying mantis. I have experience with most kinds of pets. I have helped raise dachshund and fostered dogs and cats. I have three days a week and start work at noon. Plenty of time to watch, or just drop by to make sure they are given some extra love. I have multiple cat towers and walkways for them to explore. I live in an area with lots of walking paths. I have a big yard to play in.
About: I’ve had a dog in my household for as long as I can remember! My family has had golden retrievers throughout my life, and my brother currently has an adorable golden puppy. Unfortunately I can’t currently have a pet as I’m just graduated from college, so dog sitting or walking will help fulfill my love for dogs! I just graduated this May with my masters degree from St Cloud State University and have just recently moved to this area. I will not be starting my new job until next school year and therefore I’m available for pet care any day of the week, and would have a flexible schedule for dog sitting or walking. Dog walking would be great for my routine as I’m an early riser and would be happy for an early morning stroll! I’m unable to provide services in my home as I am currently in an apartment, however I’m open to caring for your pet in any environment provided. I’ve had experience living with a large dog most of my life, and have been with them through all stages of their lives. I’m currently taking the summer off so I am looking to pet care for something fun to do in all of my newfound free time! I am willing to adapt to any of your pets needs in and around your home. Whether that be long walks or curling up on the couch together, I am willing to do whatever they need to feel comfortable away from their owners.
“Keli was great with my Charley! She kept me updated and sent pics daily. She maintained his medication schedule and was attentive to his needs! Her dog and Charley got along great!”
About: Dogs, cats, rats, bearded dragons, snakes, rabbits, lizards, fish, turtles.... All pets that I have developed bonds with over the years (unfortunately I do not take many pictures of myself BUT my camera roll is filled with pictures of animals) I'm currently a freelance worker who commutes all over the twin cities. Primarily within the west Metro, but I am a very flexible sitter. All I ask is for a short advance! Thank you! I am not currently hosting pets because of my three cats at home, but I am more than willing to travel in order to ensure the best care for your pets! They are part of your family, and I know that displacing them from their home is so stressful for them!
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was about 15 years old and have one of my own. Ready to play with and take care of your furry friend! I currently work 3 days per week, so my schedule is open and free the other 4 days! Reach out with any questions about availability. I have a fenced in large backyard and one playful dog of my own to keep your dog company. Safety and comfort are always important to me!
About: Family bred dogs since I was 3, have experience with many different breeds, empathetic to their needs, firm with commands but generous with the treats Currently work full time from 8 a.m.-4:30p.m. So can work anytime after 4:30 p.m. on weekdays, but can work anytime on weekends during any time.
