Brit was able to win over Rex in a short amount of time. He was very well cared for while I was away. She sent me pictures often to let me know he was doing well. I would definately use Britt again in the future.

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!

Chantel provided excellent care for Ellie, and was very accommodating to come and meet her prior to her care. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for their dog care.

Summer took great care of Frankie at our home while we had a big family event. She took Frankie for lots of walks and spent a ton of time outdoors, which made for a very tired and happy dog. I would recommend Summer to anyone needing loving dog care in their own home.

Just a relaxing and wonderful time away, thanks to Michelle! As a dog mama, I always get anxious when I leave for a few days or longer, but I am so pleased to have found Michelle. She took care of my girl, and also watched over the house while I was gone. Michelle sent me updates everyday with photos! Michelle is the full package- responisble, loving, caring and paid attention to all the details! Thanks so much Michelle! See you soon!

Carter was amazing!! The dogs loved him. He took them on a walk, got my mail and comforted them. I wholeheartedly recommend Carter. We will use him in the future, I’m going through some medical issues and knowing the dogs are being taken care of. He made my life less stressful. Thank you Carter

Alex is absolutely wonderful!! Met with her twice before her 10 day stay here. We went over everything and wrote her notes for reminders. Communication was awesome! I received pictures of the critters, and we messaged 1 or 2 times a day. Asked her to keep the house as it was and it looked great plus the yard was spotless.. she even made cat toys, but the dogs seem to like them more! All around a great experience with Alex! I already have her booked in January!

About: Newly SAHM looking to keep busy! Animal lover. No critter too big or too small. Clean, safe, healthy, spoiled, and mannerism/obedience training are my specialties.

Looking to stay busy while trying to afford my coffee and thrifting addiction. I can come to you- I will usually have my child with me but safety will always be taken into consideration.

Meadowlands, MN, 55765

About: Hey there! I'm Amelia — I live on a homestead with acreage in the Meadowlands area of northern MN with my husband Cole, our two big dogs, and two very chill cats. We're outdoorsy, animal-obsessed, and genuinely love having a well-matched guest dog join the pack for a bit. I keep my space small on purpose — I only take 1 dog at a time (occasionally 2 if they're a bonded pair). Your dog gets to actually hang out with us, not sit in a kennel run. Think: meadow walks, couch time, and the kind of attention your dog would get from a friend who just really loves dogs. My resident crew is good with all breeds and sizes — big dogs are welcome. The cats are dog-savvy and hold their own. I'll send you photo updates because I'd want the same. I work from home, so your dog won't be alone. I'm thoughtful about which dogs I say yes to — I always recommend a meet-and-greet first so everyone can get a feel for each other. Reach out and let's chat! Some one is always home so your pet is never alone for long. Mornings start outside — we're on acreage so there's real space to move. The rest of the day is a mix of work, outdoor time, and hanging out together. Low-key, consistent, present. Your animal is part of the household while they're here, not a guest in a kennel. Safe outdoor space, resident animals who are calm and social, and a home where the animals genuinely run the show.

Summer was great with Buddy. She really pulled me out of a rough situation by taking Buddy last minute when my original Rover canceled last minute. 10 STARS
