About: I’ve grown up around animals and genuinely love caring for them like they’re part of the family. I’m reliable, attentive, and understand that every pet has their own personality and needs. I’m experienced with dogs of different ages and temperaments. I pay close attention to routines, feeding instructions and medications. I’ll always keep you updated with photos and check-ins to give you peace of mind. I work a flexible hybrid schedule - 3 days in office, 2 days at home. When we leave our dog home alone to roam the house Monday - Friday, she is alone 8:00 to 12:00 and 1:00 to 5:00 with a mid-day lunch and potty break. We have a 2-year-old 75 lb Pyredoodle who LOVES to play and wrestle, so your dog will have a built-in buddy. We also have a fully fenced backyard for safe playtime and exercise. Dogs are welcome on the furniture and beds. Our home is smoke-free and kid-free.

About: I have experience owning and caring for Miniature Schnauzers and Miniature Dachshunds. These dogs have taught me so much about patience, companionship, routines, and the unique personalities and needs of different breeds. I truly love dogs and enjoy giving them the attention, affection, exercise, and care they deserve. I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe, comfortable, and loved when their families are away. I would treat every dog in my care like one of my own. As a self-employed person who works from home, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide plenty of time, attention, and companionship to the animals in my care. Working from home means I can be available throughout the day for feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and check-ins. I’m able to work around each pet’s individual routine and needs, while still keeping up with my own work responsibilities. I love having the opportunity to give pets the care, attention, and love they deserve while their families are away. I would care for a client’s pet as if it were my own. I would follow the owner’s instructions carefully, keep the pet’s feeding, medication, exercise, and potty schedule consistent, and give them plenty of attention and affection. I would also keep the home clean and safe, provide regular updates to the owner, and make sure their pet feels comfortable, loved, and secure while they’re away.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs almost my entire life. We offer a loving home near walking paths and parks. Also have neighbors with very friendly dogs if you allow play time I recently retired, and have an open schedule. My wife is allergic to cats and dogs, so any overnight stays, we recommend your dog is non-allergic and non-shedding If non overnight stays, and walks, a shedding dog is welcome. Our previous dog was a golden doodle, which we were fortunate to spend 12 glorious years Looking forward to spending time with your pet. We have a nice big fenced in yard for run around playtime’s, We know your pet is an extension of your family, and we will treat with utmost respect and care, fenced in yard offers a lot of exercise if your dog needs it. There is walking trails and 2 doggie parks if that is something your dog likes to do.

About: I've lived with dogs most my life. I took my childhood dog to puppy classes in petsmart and have used that knowledge to help my friends with their dogs. I'm able to read body language and anticipate needs. I love walking and playing outside. Lost dogs have been able to trust me to help them find their way home since I was a kid. Animals love me as much as I love them 💕 I'm available to take care of your pets when needed, and have a flexible schedule that allows me to do so. I love animals and hope to help others take care of their animals. Having a calm and quiet personality has always allowed animals to feel safe and secure around me. I'm able to care for them by showing genuine affection towards them. My current living situation does not all for me to have pets and I'm looking forward to loving and taking care of yours as I would my own.

About: Hi! My name is Ashley. I am originally from Superior. We just recently moved to Woodbury from Appleton. What sets me apart is my lifelong experience with dogs and the level of care and communication I provide. I’ve had dogs my entire life, including hands-on experience caring for a diabetic dog, so I’m comfortable with medication routines, special diets, and consistent care. I’m confident with high-energy dogs and patient with puppies and seniors who need a gentler pace. As a stay-at-home mom, I’m home often and able to provide attentive, structured care, along with regular updates and photos so you always feel at ease. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily and weekly routine. Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays are very open for walks and drop-in visits, as I’m home and have a flexible schedule on those days. Tuesdays and Thursdays also work well when my schedule is open, and I’m happy to communicate availability in advance. Weekends are often available as well and may vary slightly depending on my family’s schedule, but I do my best to remain flexible whenever possible. Overnight care is also something I’m excited to offer when my schedule allows, as I understand how comforting it can be for pets to stay in their own home while their owners are away. I’m always happy to discuss scheduling needs and will be clear and communicative to ensure the best care for your pets. I care for pets as if they were my own, closely following their routine and your instructions. In your home, I focus on consistent feeding, walks, medications, and any special care needs. For walks and drop-ins, I make sure each visit includes quality time, attention, exercise, and affection, not just a quick stop.

I do currently have a full-time job, however I work afternoons/nights so I am available before work as well as my days off, I have a set schedule so I am always available the same days.

I started out with people around my neighborhood, but have since expanded all around the metro! Reach out to me with any of your pet needs! I am currently working at a non-profit in Cottage Grove. Most of my days are 8:30am-4:30pm, but i get an hour long break! This schedule usually works great for pet sitting whether it’s a drop in visit or an over night stay.

I am capable of taking care of kittens, puppies, and elder animals that have special needs. My current job allows me to work remote when needed. I can tailor my schedule around your cat(s) or dog(s) daily schedule and current routine. We currently have two dogs and consistently take care of friends and families pets.

My current dog is a 1 year old Rottweiler. He is so much fun! Iv been walking dogs for about a year using Wag. I have a full time job and I take care of pets part time. Im usually available after 3pm everyday. I try to walk at least 3 dogs a week. I truly love dogs, all dogs. I will give your dog my full attention while we walk together, meaning I give eye contact, call their name in a playful way, and give them treats (with owner’s permission) and water if they listen to my commands. They will see me as their source of entertainment while getting a great exercise. I will walk or run depending on what your dog wants. Your dog will be very safe with me, I’m strong enough to handle any dog and I double check the harness is secure and double wrap the lease around my wrist.

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I grew up around a veterinary clinic and have worked as a veterinary assistant for the past 7 years, giving me hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. Through both clinic work and pet sitting, I’m comfortable administering medications, caring for senior pets, handling anxious or nervous animals, and working with puppies who may need extra supervision, potty breaks, patience, or routine reinforcement. I recently graduated from Bradley University and currently have a flexible schedule for walks, drop-ins, and house sitting throughout the week and weekends. I’m available for morning, afternoon, and evening visits and can work around your pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, medications, playtime, and bedtime routines. I’m especially comfortable with pets who need more frequent check-ins, senior pets who may need extra attention, and puppies who benefit from structured routines and regular potty breaks throughout the day. I also love keeping owners updated and am happy to send regular messages and photos so you know how your pet is doing. Creating a safe, calm, and comfortable environment for pets is very important to me. Because of my 7 years of experience working in a veterinary clinic, I’m comfortable reading animal behavior, administering medications, handling nervous pets, and responding calmly in stressful situations if needed. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always try to keep their routine as consistent as possible. I pay close attention to feeding instructions, medications, walk schedules, potty routines, and any special care requests so pets feel comfortable and secure in their familiar environment.

About: Hi! I’m Courtney. I’ve always been the person who ends up spending more time with the pets than the people. I love getting to know every dog’s or cat’s personality, whether they’re playful, goofy, shy, or happiest snuggled up on the couch. Honestly, hanging out with animals is one of my favorite ways to spend a day. Friends and family have trusted me with their pets for years, and I treat every animal like they’re my own. Whether that means walks, playtime, belly rubs, or just keeping them company while you’re away, I’m happy to meet them where they’re most comfortable. I’d love the chance to meet you and your pet! I currently work, but I have a flexible schedule and can often adjust my hours to fit your pet’s needs. Whether it’s drop-in visits, walks, or overnight care, I’m happy to work with you to find a schedule that keeps your pet comfortable and cared for. My biggest priority is making sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’ll follow their normal routine as closely as possible, keep a close eye on them, and make sure they always have what they need. I’m comfortable administering oral medications, and while I haven’t had the opportunity to give injectable medications yet, I’m more than willing to learn if you’re able to show me your pet’s routine. Every animal is different, and I enjoy getting to know what helps each one feel the most comfortable so they can feel at home even while you’re away.

About: I have enjoyed taking care of dogs since I was in high school. I have experience working with dogs all ages and sizes. Me and my family would take care and love your dog like they are our own. I work full time but have a flexible schedule where I can accommodate your pet(s). I am available some week days and most weekends, including holidays. Your pet will be well loved and attended for at our home. With a dog of my own, we go on frequent walks and have lots of snuggles. Your pet will feel like one of the family.

About: I’ve always enjoyed being around animals and understand how important it is to have someone you can trust with your pet. I’m active, dependable, patient, and comfortable following whatever routine your dog is used to. Whether that means long walks, playing outside, feeding, keeping up with a routine, or just giving them some company, I’m happy to help. I work in college athletics, so being responsible, organized, on time, and communicating well are a big part of my everyday life. I’ll treat your dog like I would want someone to treat my own and make sure you’re kept updated while they’re with me. My schedule is flexible, especially during mornings and early afternoons, which gives me plenty of time for walks, drop-ins, and taking care of pets throughout the day. I also have days with significantly more availability and can accommodate overnight and weekend care depending on my schedule. I keep my Rover calendar updated so I only accept bookings when I know I can give your pet the time and attention they need. I take being trusted with someone else’s pet and home seriously. I’ll follow your instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walking routines, medications or other care instructions you provide. I’m also big on communication and will send updates and photos so you know how your pet is doing. For pets staying with me, I’ll make sure they have a clean, comfortable environment, regular bathroom breaks, exercise, attention, and plenty of time to settle in and feel comfortable.

About: I’ve been caring for my current dog for 5 years, previously I had a pup that I cared for 2 years. Over the years, neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me to walk their pups, keep them fed on schedule. Those early experiences taught me how to be patient, responsible, and attentive to each dog’s unique personality. Caring for pets has always come naturally to me, and that long‑standing trust from the people around me is something I’m really proud of. I am also a huge fan of training pets, though im not certified to do so as yet. This is currently my full time job at the moment as I transition in the workforce. That means more time for your pet, more time for play and fun or just naps. My space is clean, pet‑friendly, and thoughtfully arranged to keep every pet safe and comfortable. I’ve created a home environment where pets can feel relaxed, stimulated, and genuinely cared for. My neighborhood has beautiful, safe trails just a short walk away, so dogs get plenty of outdoor time, fresh air, and enriching adventures suited to their energy level. Inside, I’ve set up a designated nap room — a quiet, cozy space where pets can unwind, recharge, or enjoy some peaceful alone time whenever they need it.
