House Sitting in Ham Lake

About: I've had dogs and cats in my life since I was young. I currently have two dogs, both are hound mixes. We live an active lifestyle. One dog has high anxiety and I have been through extensive training with him. I dog sit a family members two dogs when she goes out of town several times a year. One dog has hip dysplasia and I have researched ways to help with pain and discomfort. I currently work full time day shift in law enforcement. I will generally be available after 4PM but I have random weekdays and weekends off. 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.

“Angie did an excellent job!! Bobo was happy and healthy and I think our home looked better than we left it ? will definitely use her again!! ??”

“Tayler was able to come watch our kitties on short notice and took great care of them and our home!”

“Jamie communicates well and took very good care of our pugs while we were out of town. Will definitely contact her again for future needs and recommend her to others.”

“Brianna was so great with Moses, and left the house just as it was when she left. She sent photos every day so we knew he was happy and doing well. We’ll definitely have her back.”

“Stephanie was fantastic! Our pup really loved her, snuggling her more than she ever snuggles us! Great attitude, sent pics almost daily, and adjusted her schedule to meet our puppy’s needs. It was such a wonderful experience all around that we have already requested her for our next vacation. What a relief knowing our beloved pet and our home were in great hands. Never worried once while away. Thanks again Stephanie!!”

“Gabrielle has been so amazing! She’s been so incredible with our doggo, and we’re so appreciative for her flexibility and willingness to take such good care of her! Thank you so so much Gabrielle!!!”

“Fred and his family provided excellent care for our young energetic dog and our 3 month old puppy. They came back tired and happy from playing! He was responsive to our needs and was very flexible in accommodating what we requested. We have already rebooked with him. We will be definitely be in touch when we visit our family in Minnesota.”

“Awesome, I was very anxious about Sock, she does not like people and Jackson took the time to get to know her and made me comfortable with him and Sock now has a new best friend.”

“Emily was great! Provided updates and photos and the Pups loved her!”

“Heather took excellent care of our dog, cat, and home while were were away. She was very caring and patient with our rescue dog that has trust issues with new people and some separation anxiety when my wife and I are gone. Heather was great about providing updates and pictures when requested. I highly recommend her and she will be our first contact if we need someone to watch our pets and home again!”

“Rachel did an amazing job caring for our two pugs while we went out of town ! She came and stayed at our house with them for 3 nights . She left the place as clean as it was. She kept us updated with pictures of the dogs throughout the days . Would highly recommend Rachel and definitely will be having her back again . She also left a super sweet note and couple dog toys before she left . Thanks again for taking care of our fur babies!”

“Lannie did a great job giving our pets lots of love while we were away for over a week. She was very communicative with us and took good care of our home.”

“Mickenzi was great with Bear! She definitely had a lot of experience with dogs and provided a lot of information about my new rescue dog that was helpful. Mickenzi sent lots of pictures which I also really appreciated!”

“Kelly was flexible and caring. She worked with me to understand my dog’s needs and make sure she was well cared for while I was out all day. Kelly communicated throughout the day and I came home to a happy dog! Thanks Kelly!!”

About: I have done a lot of dog sitting for family members and I decided it was time to expand my clients and use my love for animals to help myself pay for college! I can definitely walk and check in on pets after and before school, after work, and on weekends! I am very flexible and would be able to change that schedule to accommodate. At my own home I love to walk my dogs and bring them on fun car rides to get pup cups or to go to the dog park for some new scenery! I hope to do the same with pets I care for if that is approved by the owners.

“We are super happy with Sandra. She house sat for us and watched our big and rambunctious puppies. Both 70+ lbs and VERY energetic! They were both well cared for and seemed to get plenty of exercise. Sandra also cared for our chickens, including 1 broody hen. She sent us pictures everyday with a status update. House was clean when we came home, so she was a very nice houseguest as well! We will definitely use her services again in the future!”

“Patrick took care of my Chihuahuas after I fell and hurt myself on the MN ice. He was patient, kind and interested in my little ones, despite one grouchy old Chihuahua who he found endearing. He cherishes and cares well for his own animals as well and will do the same for yours!”

“Cassie takes great care of our cat Sylvie when we have a weekend away! She leaves everything neat and Sylvie is well-adjusted and happy when we get home!”

“Emily took great care of our 3 pups while we were away for the weekend! We really appreciated the pictures and check-ins letting us know our pups were doing great. Emily is a great communicator. Highly recommend!”
