About: I have professional dog-care experience through my current job at a dog daycare, where I care for dogs of all sizes and personalities. I’ve also volunteered at a humane society and have a B.S. in Biology. I’m patient, attentive, and passionate about making sure every dog feels safe, happy, and cared for. Pet care is already a big part of my weekly routine through my work at a dog daycare. I’m available for additional pet care during my days off, evenings, and weekends, and I’m happy to work with owners to find a schedule that fits their pets’ needs. Whether caring for pets in my home or yours, I’m flexible and happy to follow their normal routine. In my home, I have one small, friendly dog for company, can crate if needed, and have separate spaces available. In your home, I’ll follow your instructions for feeding, walks, playtime, and any special needs to keep your pet comfortable and happy.

“Thank you so much!”

About: I have experience in taking care of elderly dogs and young pups. I have trained my dogs and other dogs to sit, down, wait and shake. I live in the Lake Minnetonka area. I have a Chihuahua/Terrier/Maltese Mix and he is 5 years old. I can provide the need for walks and drop in visits and house sitting. I live on Lake Minnetonka and have a flexible job and can be available during the morning, day, and night and overnight to watch your pets. I am available during the weekends, holidays and family vacations during school breaks. I request to have clear instructions for walking/sitting dogs for harnesses, leashes, feeding, and toy preferences. I have a vet that I would use for emergencies.

About: I’ve grown up with and loved dogs my whole life! Most of my experience has been with larger dogs, but I’ve also cared for plenty of smaller dogs through friends.

I’m comfortable with all sizes, ages, and personalities, and I’ll make sure they’re happy and healthy while you’re away! I have a consistent Tuesday-Saturday work schedule with Sundays and Mondays off. I’m available for pet care before and after work and have full availability on my days off! Your pet’s safety and comfort is number 1! So I’ll follow your instructions and normal routine as closely as possible including meals, walks, medications, and any special care they need! I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages while you’re away!

About: I have been dog-sitting and house-sitting since 1980. I have cared for senior dogs and puppies and everything in between. I am a responsible and respectful in your home. I focus on what you need taken care of while keeping your dog(s) happy and in their routine while you are away. You can leave feeling comfortable that your dog(s) and home will be lovingly cared for. (I’m sorry I cannot take care of cats or rabbits due to allergies, but I’ve looked after hamsters and chickens!) I am also a part-time elementary school teacher in the Deephaven/Wayzata/ Minnetonka area. I am typically available Thursday evening - Sunday and available after 3:00 pm, Monday - Thursday. My focus will be on your dog(s) needs and routine, and keeping them safe and happy in your home. I'm sorry I'm currently not able to care for your pets in my shared rental home.

About: I care for my family’s dog, Moxie, every day alongside my siblings. This includes feeding, walks, playtime, and making sure he stays happy, active, and comfortable. What sets me apart is that I understand every pet has different needs and routines. I’m reliable, attentive, and committed to following your instructions closely so your pet receives the same care and consistency they’re used to at home. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, active playtime, or simply having company, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I’ve also cared for small pets in the past and have always enjoyed spending time with animals. My goal is to provide dependable care and give pet owners peace of mind knowing their pets are in good hands. I’m currently a college student and work part-time during the summer, which gives me flexibility to provide pet care throughout the week. My work schedule varies from week to week, but because I work part-time, I have plenty of availability for drop-in visits, walks, and quality time with your pets. I typically know my schedule in advance and do my best to accommodate pet care requests whenever possible. I’m also usually available on weekends and enjoy spending time outdoors with dogs, whether that’s going for walks, playing, or simply keeping them company. I’ve always been an animal lover….I’m usually the one in the corner spending more time with the pets than the people at family gatherings! In fact, I even made a PowerPoint presentation to convince my family to get our goldendoodle, Moxie. My priority is making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine and needs, follow instructions carefully, and provide consistent, reliable care. Whether I’m stopping by for a visit or taking your dog on a walk, I’ll treat them like my own, with patience, attention, playtime, and affection. I also respect my clients’ homes and will care for your pet and belongings responsibly while you’re away.

About: My husband and I grew up with dogs our whole lives and we owned a small dog for 15 years. We are often one our neighbors and relatives call when they need a pet sitter. We are excited to meet new dogs and families and offer pet care. Our home is warm and welcoming and we like to give pets a lot of attention. We feel they are a part of our family when they are with us. You will receive pictures and regular updates while your dog is with us, so you can be reassured your pets are having a wonderful vacation too. Looking forward to meeting you and your furry family members! My husband works from home. I work from home at times and we have two older kids who are often home to help too. We are never away for more than 4 hours at a time. We follow the owner’s preferences. We will use leashes, harnesses, etc. when on walks. We will administer medications as needed. Dogs can sleep in our beds.

About: I have several years of dog and house-sitting experience through word-of-mouth referrals, caring for pets during trips ranging from a few days to a week and a half. I strive to find what works for each pet as an individual. I have experience caring for elderly dogs, administering oral medication, and working with multiple pets. I’ve cared for a range of dogs—from picky eaters and nervous, anxious dogs that preferred a consistent schedule and energetic dogs with mischievous streaks. Working with such different dogs has helped me become flexible and responsive to a wide range of temperaments and care requirements. Past clients have repeatedly trusted me with their pets and homes, and many have returned for additional bookings. Through these experiences, I have followed detailed care instructions, monitored pets for changes in behavior, provided excercise and affection, maintained a safe environment, and communicated reliably with owners. This means that when a situation is worrisome, I will err on the side of caution as well as informing you. My goal is always to make pets feel comfortable, cared for, and loved while you’re away and for you to feel secure your pets are safe and in responsible, good hands. As a college student who comes back home for the breaks, my schedule is relatively wide open. However, I also appreciate still having some time here and there even while on sits to spend with family, should it be possible. When caring for pets in a client's home, I always prioritize following any provided instructions and established routines. In this respect, I especially appreciate detailed care notes, as they help me provide the most consistent and personalized care possible. Every pet is different, and I believe clients know their pets best. At the same time, I use good judgment and common-sense safety practices to ensure pets remain safe, healthy, and comfortable while their parents are away. I am patient, attentive, and observant, and I make it a priority to learn each pet's personality, preferences, and needs. Whatever that means, I aim to adapt my care to what will help each pet feel most at ease. I also value staying in contact with pet parents throughout their time away, as much as their availability and preferences allow. Regular updates help provide peace of mind to everyone, and if any questions or unexpected situations arise, I can communicate promptly so clients stay informed and involved in decisions regarding their pet's care. My goal is to create a safe and familiar environment where pets can thrive and clients can feel confident that their pets and homes are being well cared for.

About: What sets me apart is the genuine care I bring to every pet. I’ve had my cat for 8 years and have cared for family dogs, giving me experience with different personalities, routines, and needs.

Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I’m used to caring for my own cat every day. I make time for feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, playtime, and attention. I’m also flexible with my schedule and can make time for visits and care based on each pet’s needs and routine. I care for pets with patience, attention, and consistency. In a client’s home, I follow their normal routine closely, including feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, playtime, and plenty of attention. I’ll also respect their home, keep things clean, and make sure their pet feels safe and comfortable while they’re away.

I’ve developed a deep understanding of dog behavior, body language, and individual needs.🐾 I currently have the sweetest babies, a 12 year old lab and 2 laid back cats.

I work as a groomer and often have shorter days starting at 8am, usually finishing around 2 or 3 PM, which gives me plenty of flexibility for pet sitting in the evenings.
