About: I have had animals my whole life and love them dearly. I have had dogs, cats and some farm animals as well. I believe you should take care of them just like you would take care of a child. They are part of the family. My recent dog she is 13 almost 14 and I have had her since she was a little baby fur ball. Now she is a senior little lady and she is my whole heart. Id love to help others take care of their loved pet family members. Well I am at home most weekends, Wednesdays and some Tuesdays.I understand people need help with their pets. Me myself when im working I have someone watch my little fur ball. They are important. I am very alert of dog’s needs and want to take care of them to the best of my ability. I have had all types of dogs. Im here to help any way I can
“Amanda was a wonderful cat-sitter for my little guy - we had recently relocated and I didn’t want to add stress by boarding him when I left on a longer vacation. Amanda came over and met him (he loved her instantly), and then sent me regular pictures and updates while I was gone. She’s someone who truly seems to love animals, any little creature would be lucky to be in her care!”
“She was great to care for Elvis when we had to take our old pup Rex (17 years old) to the vet and have him put down. She is wonderful and very caring. Very thankful to have her.”
“I can not say enough good things about Amber. She was amazing with our 2 pups. They absolutely adored her! She was so attentive to them and our home while we were out of town. We would 100% recommend her services.”
About: I've taken care of animals from a young age from breeding to sitting and raising and training dogs, ive cared for family dogs as well I have some evenings off during the week and that would be the perfect time to walk or take care of the doggos and I need to walk more Feed them, water them give them exercise daily play with them and make sure they get a good run in or fly in my case I have birds
About: My background in training dogs through agility classes, working with shy and special-needs animals, fostering cats, and managing dogs of all sizes at a daycare makes me uniquely qualified. I’ve also cared for farm animals, including geese, and I’m skilled in pet grooming. My patience, reliability, and ability to adapt to each pet’s unique personality ensure your pets are safe, loved, and well cared for. I have a steady work-life balance, working Monday-Friday from 6 AM to 3 PM. Pet care fits easily into my routine, as I am available for early morning, evening, and weekend visits. On Mondays, I travel to Duluth for agility training, so I can take pet-sitting jobs in that area. I’m also willing to drive within a 100-mile radius of my home to provide care, ensuring flexibility for pet owners who need reliable and loving service. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets, whether in my home or a client’s. I take the time to understand each pet’s needs, personality, and routine to create a stress-free and comfortable environment. I’m experienced with shy animals and work patiently to help them feel safe. In a client’s home, I respect their space while ensuring their pets receive attentive care, from feeding and playtime to maintaining a clean environment, including litter box upkeep. Whether it’s keeping a routine, providing enrichment, or offering extra care for special needs pets, I always prioritize their well-being.
About: I have two dogs and a cat that I care for over the summer. While in my care, the dogs have been on walks, swam in lakes and been taken to the dog park to chase toys. The cat is an indoor/outdoor cat without a cat door, so she requires constant monitoring so she can get in and out. They are all very loving, so I am also comfortable with high attention needs. I will be working two part-time jobs over the summer, but my hours will not keep me busy, so I will have plenty of time to pet sit I only offer services in client homes, but I am excellent with keeping feeding and walking schedules. Given my experience with dogs, I am also comfortable with playing or relaxing with dogs. Excited pups and layed-back pups are equally welcome!
