Pet Sitting in Harrison

About: Cats were my first pets. Dogs and cats are now my babies and a big part of my life! I have decades of experience with pets in animal shelter settings and in my own home. I can give insulin shots and other meds as needed. How can I help? I am a retiree who loves her two dogs and her cat, and I can't wait to love on yours! I am a part-time sitter with decades of experience with animals. My goal is to give others peace of mind when they have to be away from their pets short-term. Safety of your babies is my priority. I will make sure I understand their needs well in advance of my visit. Photos of your pets will be texted to you during my visit so you can see how they are doing in your absence.

About: I have taken care of dogs of all sizes and have helped with whelping, shots, to finding them new homes. I have trained dogs also! I will always treat them as my own and they will be well socialized. I am currently working full time at a family owned business. I am free from Friday-Sunday every weekend. I can take smaller dog with me to work (30#) or less. I have 30 wooded acres in the country. I have a large yard, not fenced but have a wireless collar system if I need to use it. I have a 4 year old chocolate lab neutered male, he is very playful and loves other dogs. I have 3 kids ages 10,7,2. Who I have taught to respect all animals and know the responsibility of taken care of them. I am willing to meet to pick up and drop off also.

“Shawna was so kind and attentive to my girl Athena! She even watered some plants she noticed were dry!! I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for pet care :) This was my first time using rover so I was nervous but it truly couldn't have worked out better!!”

About: I've taken care of all kinds of dogs and cats for decades. I treat them like family and with the utmost care and respect. I'm especially good with big dogs like Rottweilers, German Shepherds, Great Danes and others. I also have experience with cats and other animals including exotic pets and reptiles. Watching your pets is my full time job. I take it very seriously. I'm available almost every day. You'll just need to book me in advance. Currently I cannot watch/board your pets at my home. I may be able to change this in the future but for now it's at the owner's house. And I will do anything that the owner wishes to make sure their pets are cared for just like when they are home.

“Cher is amazing. We’ve booked her twice now. She goes above and beyond and provides updates. Our travel plans changed quite a bit due to weather and she was flexible and easy to work with. I never like leaving our cat when we travel, but it makes it easier knowing she is in good hands.”

“Brandy did a great job taking care of my cats!”

“Kumar was absolutely wonderful with my two cats! I was especially nervous about leaving because one of them, Relic, is a formerly feral girl who’s very shy with new people. (Beezle, my other cat, is a social butterfly—toss him a treat and he’s instantly your best friend.) But Kumar handled Relic’s quirks with so much patience and care. He came by twice a day, sent me photos and videos every visit, and never hesitated to check in if he had questions. His communication was fantastic, and he totally put my mind at ease. If I need a sitter again, I’ll be crossing my fingers that Kumar’s available—he did an amazing job, and I’m so grateful!”

“Brittany is amazing with our 3 dogs (2 pit mixes and a schipperke) and 2 cats. She took such great care of them during our trip, followed our instructions and provided us with updates. We could tell that they loved her being there with them. All in all, we're blown away by the service we received and continue to receive with Brittany.”

“Outstanding service! I didn't have to worry at all while I was on vacation. Aliya is reliable, great at communicating and so sweet to my Tuna! Highly recommend!”

About: I’m the kind of person who gets excited every time I see a dog and I’ve been caring for them most of my life! I’ve had my own pups and have been dog sitting for family and friends since 8th grade. Every dog I meet gets the love, attention, and snuggles they deserve. I currently work 2 part time jobs. Caring for your furry friend, on their schedule, will fit perfectly into my schedule! I have a rotating nights schedule so I have every other weekend off with only 2 nights during the week! In my home, my animals are treated like family, I’d love to do the same for yours! I am great at following their schedule and listening to their needs because I believe they deserve care like you never left!

“Amber is fantastic! She checked in on our dog and cats while we were away for the week - she took great care of them and was good at keeping us updated with pictures!”

“Alana was right on time for multiple visits to care for and check on my big Akita/husky pup. She sent pictures of him playing on each visit and sent me texts updating me on his status. Couldn't ask for better!”

About: I have provided loving dog care services in my home for 10 plus years. Large private fenced yard for safety, plus perfect for running & playing. I have an open schedule most weeks throughout the year. I love the company of dogs and I enjoy having them share my home often. Since I'm home, setting up a routine that works for the dog's needs is important and easy to accomplish. Lots of one-on-one attention provided daily.

About: I have a deep love for animals and truly enjoy the process of connecting with them. For me, it’s more than just "watching" a pet; I love learning about their unique personalities, specific traits, and individual needs to ensure they feel safe and happy while their owners are away. PS - If you are wanting a house sit it is just me and not Thomas since we live in different areas now. Unfortunately we got an update from our housing authority (in Minneapolis) that we aren't supposed to have dogs 50 lb or more in the condo, so we can not accept bigger dogs unless its for a short duration. Thomas is a homebody and just goes into his art studio for a couple of hours in St Paul Mon-Fri. His hours are very flexible usually from 11:30am-3pm and can be less if needed to be home with a pet. My schedule is also flexible as i'm an independent canvasser for PBS and pick up para substitutiting at public and private schools. Well I put my clients needs first. Just like when I nanny or do childcare work or teaching I really try to listen to the "parents" aka pet owners in this scenario and listen to what their desires are. Ultimately I'm working for you so I want your cares and concerns to come first! I am very happy to provide or use your toys and play with your pet and pamper them. Give them just enough food and space to warm up to me. Let me know if your pets have any dietary needs. I have experience taking care of pets with seizures as well and giving their medicine in with their daily meals.
