Dog Sitting in Ham Lake

“Subi provided excellent care for our two older cats for over 2 weeks on a daily basis with special attention to the individual feeding requirements for each of our cats We were provided pictures each day of the the food, water and cleaned litter box, along with cute snapshots of our cats in various places. Subi took care of a a few extra requests as well, including watering a droopy plant and locating the robotic vacuum cleaner and placing it back on its dock for the next cycle of cleaning. We returned home to calm contented cats. We appreciate all the Subi did for our cats and our peace of mind.”

“Nichole has been great! She is very friendly and responsive. I enjoy the report cards I get from her visits. It’s comforting knowing that my kiddos are getting checked on each day by someone caring. Having Nichole stop by takes a lot of stress off my shoulders while I’m at work all day. Highly recommend!”

About: Samantha and I have been dog owners all our lives but due to losing our last fur baby to Lymphoma at 4 years old we now find our house too empty with no 4-legged babies to care for so we would love the opportunity to love yours like they are our own. This is the first time we have lived in a house with no dogs so it feel too empty and quiet. We have a large fenced in yard and our property is adjacent to a park with miles of walking trails. I work from home so your fur baby will have constant companionship while vacationing at our house. I work from home and take daily walks in the park behind our house so attention and exercise is the foundation of our pet sitting philosophy. We have a fenced in yard and offer a husband and wife team to look after your 4-legged family member. We both have a lifetime of experience caring for and keeping pups safe and happy.

“Jessica is very on time, prompt and provides a good service for the puppers when she arrives. She sends good follow ups for her visits and is a good help with the dog during the day when I have long work hours. Would recommend to others.”

About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs my entire life. I currently have 4 amazing dogs of my own, I foster and volunteer for a local rescue so I have worked with dogs of all sizes, temperaments and needs. Whether it’s snuggles on the couch, long walks, play time, or calm companionship, I’m here to give your dog all the care, love and attention they deserve while you are away. I believe in treating every dog like my own-with patience, kindness and fun. I provide regular updates and photos, so you'll never have to wonder how your dog is doing. Whether it's a walk, a drop-in, or an overnight stay, I'll make sure your pup is safe, comfortable, and happy. Let's set up a meet & greet-l'd love to meet you and your furry best friend! I currently work full time so am available any day after 3 to bring your pup for a walk, feed them or bring them to my house to play with my dogs. I can make any night work for overnight care. I live in a dog-loving home with a secure, dog-friendly environment. My own dogs are well-socialized and friendly, and I take introductions slowly to make sure everyone feels safe and comfortable. I am also available to come to your home to take care of your dog if preferred.

“Samantha provided such peace of mind while we were away! She immediately connected with our dogs and gave them great care. I will happily work with Samantha for any future care for my pups.”

About: I am just starting as a pet sitter, but have had many pets growing up. We currently have a 4 year old cat, but we have had another cat, a shi tzu, and a Newfoundland while I was growing up. I love dogs and cats and want to earn a bit of extra money doing something I love. I work part time during the week, 10:45-3 Monday through Friday. I love walking or hiking and would walk dogs before or after my shift. I have lots of free time in the evening for play as well. I have one cat that I love dearly. She has been with dogs before and was comfortable with him. We have no dogs currently. In your home I would be able to walk or play with dogs leashed and off leash depending on the environment.

About: I have been a responsible pet owner (dog mom) for 23 years. I have great deal of experience taking care of dogs, especially large dogs. I believe all dogs should be treated with love and kindness and as part of the family. I have gone through multiple dog training courses with my dogs I have had and I will implement those skills when I take care of your pet. I look forward to making a pawsitive impact for you and your pet! I currently work full time but I am available evenings and weekends for drop in visits, play time, and walks. My service area is Blaine, Circle Pines, Ham Lake, and Fridley. I will provide safe care in your home and follow all instructions and safety precautions that apply to your pet. As a dog mom to a reactive dog in the past, I realize the safety that is needed when walking a dog or visiting them at their home. Safety is the top priority of your pet and home.

About: I have over 12 years of hands-on experience caring for animals of all sizes, from large farm animals like cows and horses to household pets including dogs, cats, and rabbits. My background includes working with both family pets and farm animals, giving me experience with different temperaments, routines, and care needs. In addition to my professional and educational experience, I also raise and care for my own animals, including rabbits, poultry, dogs, and cats. I am currently pursuing a B.S. in Animal Science with a minor in Histotechnology, along with a dual major in Canine Management and Training. My education has strengthened my knowledge of animal behavior, health, handling, and proper care techniques. In addition to my schooling, I was involved in 4-H for 10 years and FFA for 6 years, where I gained extensive experience in animal husbandry, responsibility, and daily animal care. I have also worked as a kennel assistant in a veterinary hospital and as a stable hand at a horse rescue ranch, where I assisted with feeding, cleaning, exercise, monitoring animal health, and providing compassionate care. I am also comfortable administering medications and following detailed care instructions to ensure pets stay healthy and comfortable. What sets me apart is my combination of real-world animal experience, formal education, and genuine passion for animal care. I am comfortable caring for pets of different ages, sizes, and energy levels, and I strive to provide safe, patient, and reliable care that helps pets feel comfortable and owners feel confident. I am currently a college student home for the summer, looking to stay busy. I work as a softball coach on Tuesday and Thursday evenings, as well as weekends. While I am not coaching, I am looking to spend my time with animals. Pets in my care are treated like family, and their safety, comfort, and routine are always my top priorities. At my home, we have 20 wooded acres with plenty of space for exercise, enrichment, and outdoor time. Dogs can enjoy supervised leash walks or long-line walks, depending on their needs and the owner’s preference. I always make sure pets are safely handled and closely supervised at all times. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to follow their normal routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable and relaxed in their familiar environment. I pay close attention to feeding schedules, exercise, medications, and any special instructions to make sure each pet gets the care they are used to. My goal is to provide dependable, compassionate care while giving owners peace of mind that their pets are in good hands.

About: Countless friends and family have asked me to watch their pets while they're out of town especially last minute. I respect and care about each pet, trying to make them as happy and comfortable as possible. I work remotely a few days per week and available on weekends. Schedule can be flexible depending on service. Also tend to be available on holidays. When I visit a client's home, I keep it the same as when I came in. I respect and keep their home clean and try to have the pets as comfortable as possible.

About: I’m home throughout the day so they’ll always have company, supervision, and care. After adventures, I make sure pups are clean with a calm environment. I’ve had beagles my entire life- Milo is a rare calm dog who needs a bestie. I work from home so I’ll have a lot of time for your furbaby! Your dog gets a safe, active, and loving environment with constant supervision and plenty of attention. Your dogs safety and comfort are my top priorities. While I don’t have a fenced yard, I use a secure leash setup in a large shared outdoor space for safe, supervised hangouts.

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover and dog owner who understands how important it is to find someone dependable and caring to look after your pets. I currently have two dogs of my own, so I’m experienced with feeding, walking, playtime, maintaining routines, and giving dogs plenty of love and attention. I’m patient, responsible, organized, and comfortable following detailed care instructions. I know every pet has a different personality, schedule, and comfort level, and I will take the time to help your pet feel safe and relaxed while you’re away. I’ll treat your pets and home with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to fit pet care into my daily routine. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and plenty of attention throughout the week. I’m dependable and will do my best to follow your pet’s usual schedule. I will always follow your instructions carefully and make your pet’s safety and comfort my top priority. I’ll keep doors, gates, leashes, food, and medications secure while respecting your home and your pet’s normal routine. I’ll also provide updates so you can feel confident that your pet is being well cared for.

About: I grew up with labs and ultimately wanted lap dogs once I moved out of my parents home. When I was 20 (in college housing) I was crazy enough to get a puppy! My little dachshund made me the most popular student on campus, shortly thereafter I adopted a min pin because being an only child can get lonely! Both my dogs lived to be 20! They recently passed away and we have been missing that part of our family and aren’t yet ready to commit to new furry pets. My daughter is 9 and has done quite a bit of dog sitting already, she is all hands on deck (with supervision) and will surely spoil your pups! We’ve had dogs overnight at our house, done overnights at others home as well as done check ins and day visits. I have experience with administering meds (pills and shots), making special diets, bathing, nail clipping, ear cleaning, teeth brushing and all the typical dog Mom stuff! We like dogs of all sizes and ages! We love to go for long walks and explore nature or play a game of chase or fetch. I work a flexible schedule Monday - Friday and like to stay busy so would be able to accommodate most requests depending on location and advanced notice. We do not currently have any furry pets in our home so your dog(s) would be our main priority! We have a large downstairs basement if your dog has a lot of energy and would get them outside for good exercise as well.

About: Hi! I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life and truly love caring for animals of all personalities and needs. I currently have two hound mixes and live a very active, pet-focused lifestyle. I have hands-on experience with: • Dogs with anxiety and behavioral needs (including training support) • Senior and special-needs dogs, including hip dysplasia • Administering medications multiple times a day I understand that every pet is different, and I’m very patient, attentive, and focused on making them feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I have a fully fenced yard and two friendly dogs, and I can also accommodate crating if needed (I have large crates available). Availability: I work full-time during the day, but I’m typically available after 6 PM on workdays. I also have rotating weekdays and weekends off, which allows for more flexible care—just message me and I’m happy to coordinate! I treat every pet like they’re my own and will keep you updated with photos and messages so you always have peace of mind. I currently work full time day shift. I will generally be available after 6PM but I have random weekdays and wekends off to care for your pets! I have a fenced in yard, and two dog friendly dogs. I have experience with high anxiety and handicap dogs that need medication several times a day. I have two large crates as my dogs are over 50 pounds if that is something that is needed.
