“Maureen is the best dog sitter we have ever used. Our dogs are so happy! Maureen also went above and beyond while caring for them and the experience was overall stellar. We received so many high quality pictures of our babies while we were gone and it definitely helped with being homesick. Some of those photos will probably end up framed in our house! She also left a wonderful heartfelt note with dog biscuits and was happy to take care of other things around the house for us during her drop-ins. I have never felt so comfortable and confident that our babies would be cared for well. We will happily book with Maureen again in the future ☺️”

About: I have had a genuine love of animals since a young age. During high school I was employed at a local animal boarding/doggie daycare. I have also been relied upon by friends and family to care for their dogs on an ongoing basis. I truly enjoy caring for pets and showing them love while their families are away. I currently don’t have a job. Im pretty open all summer but will be continuing school this fall in St. Cloud as a pre-vet major but can work around my school schedule. I prefer to take care of your dogs in their own home, this will ease any stress for your pets as well as your family. i will take excellent care of your furry family , and always respect your rules and your household.

About: Hello, my name is Kristina and I would love to become a pet sitter for you. I grew up in a family where animals were always a big part. From horses to dogs to cats, we always had furry friends around. I also grew up in a family where we were taught to take responsibility and care for our animals so I learned pretty young all the important things related to animal ownership. Some of the skills I possess are the ability to care for both puppies and older dogs. I have owned both and know that each has their own needs. I am also willing to administer medications and am a very observant person so I notice when things may not be quite right. I grew up with a veterinarian in the family and he taught me what to look for and what to do in case there is a problem. My goal is to make the time I spend with your pet comfortable for both them and you. As a pet parent, I know it’s tough to leave your four legged friend behind and I want you to be at ease about it. I currently work full time but work during the day so I have plenty of time during the early mornings and evenings to care for your pets. I would make sure to fit an extra-long play session in at night so that they can wear off that energy. Currently, I am not set up to care for other pets in my home as my older dog prefers her own space. As I know from experience with my own dog, animals are more comfortable in their home because it is more normal. My goal for caring for your animals in your home would be to give them as much normalcy in their routine as I can. I also would respect your home as it can be a bit strange letting someone come into it while you are gone. And of course, I would send as many pictures and updates as you want.

“Simone was great with our cats!”

About: Ever since I can remember I have adored animals. I have always been the person who would go over to a friend's house and end up sitting by their pet the whole time! When I became old enough, I started volunteering at my local animal shelter and pet sitting as much as I could. At the shelter, I walked dogs, spent time playing with cats and kittens, and helped clean kennels and cages. I have a senior dog and senior cat that I have had their whole lives so I have extensive experience raising and training pets, as well as experience with senior animals. I also have a rabbit so am familiar with different kinds of pet care as well! I am currently unemployed, though I do have potential offers in the works, so for now I have full availability! I will update my availability as it changes. Due to having 2 senior pets that hate all other pets but each other, I am unable to offer boarding at this time. However, I will provide any sort of care necessary for your pets in your homes! I am very good at following directions if you have a list for me, but I am also good at just knowing what goes into caring for pets, such as watching for potty cues and noticing when they need mental or physical stimulation.

“Hannah did a great job dropping in to take care of our senior dog and two cats!”

About: I grew up caring for animals of all kinds from horses, to dogs and cats. I have always had pets in my life and have a passion for giving them the love, attention, and care they deserve. If you have a high energy dog I’ve been active and athletic my whole life and would love to get your buddy out for lots of walks and play time. If your animal is more of a cuddler I am happy to take the time to give them the attention they need when you are not able to. I very flexible with my schedule. I am usually able to work with you to accommodate you and your pet’s needs both during the week and weekends. I have a large home with a large yard located in a quiet rural area. There is also a park nearby so there is lots of opportunity to be active. I am currently working part-time so I have plenty of time to give your pups the love and attention they need. I work at home so I am here most of the time to attend to your pups every need. I have a very large house with lots of room to roam. My yard is not fenced, but I have a huge park across the street from me with a Tennis Court that is enclosed so your pup can run free and exercise. Pups stay on their leash at all times unless we are in the tennis court. My home is puppy proofed…that is their is no chemicals or anything in reach that could be harmful. That is all kept on high shelves.

About: I'm a teacher and an animal lover! I'm great at caring for others. 😄 We have two friendly cats and would love to host some dogs. I'm available most weekends and all summer. I'm available to board your pet most weekends! You can always reach out even if my schedule says not available. Those that have boarded with us love that their pet was clean, relaxed and well cared for. My kids love animals and your pet will be given a lot of attention. We have two cats that we love dearly. Our animals are part of our family. We hope to meet a few nice families that want their pets to get some extra attention in evenings or weekends.

About: What sets me apart is the genuine love and patience I bring to every pup I meet—whether they’re full of puppy energy or enjoying their golden years. I have hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, including senior pups who need a little extra TLC and young puppies still learning the ropes. I’m calm, reliable, and attentive to each dog’s unique needs—whether that means administering medication, reinforcing training routines, or simply being their cuddle buddy while you’re away. I treat every dog like family, because that’s exactly what they are. 🐶🤍 I’m currently working a part-time job at the Dorthy Olson Aquatic Center so I have plenty of time in the morning before I head to work at 11:30, during our breaks, and after work at 7:30 to take care of your pup. I often have full days off where I can spend it loving your dog and taking them on walks. When I care for pets in a client’s home, my top priorities are safety, routine, and respect—for both your pup and your space. I follow your instructions carefully to keep your dog’s schedule consistent and stress-free, whether that’s feeding times, walks, play, or medications. I keep a calm, pet-friendly atmosphere and always ensure doors, gates, and any potential hazards are secured. I understand that letting someone into your home requires trust. I treat your space with the utmost respect—cleaning up after myself and your pet, keeping things tidy, and keeping you updated with regular check-ins and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and in good hands. 🐾

“Shannon was great help with her drop-ins. I can definitely tell that while she was looking after my dog he enjoyed it just as much as she did. Her reports were very detailed and left me at ease while he was in her care. I would definitely recommend her services to anyone in the future!”

Brayon W.

“We were very pleased with Rachel Ann. She spent a lot of time with our 2 cats and was not in a hurry to just get in and get out. She was professional and very personable. I’d recommend her to anyone who asks.”

About: I’ve always been an animal lover! I’ve had cats and fish my entire life! I’ve had a dog for the past almost 10 years, but she now stays at my family home. I have a sweet and sassy bearded dragon that I care for and love daily! I’ve cared for family and friends’s pets for many years! I work a flexible full-time job and work from home on Fridays. I am a photographer so some Saturdays don’t work for me during the day during summer and fall, but I will keep an updated schedule! I’ll send pics of your fur baby having fun and cuddling so you know what they’re up to! I’ll answer questions as quickly as I can and always communicate the best I can!

About: As someone who grew up with animals in the house, i view cats and dogs as an extension of the family unit. In having grown up with and around both dogs and cats, I have an inside knowledge on what is required to ensure your fur baby feels safe, loved and cared for. I will make it my goal to ensure that my home is a safe haven where your animals see it as a "home away from home". I initially got into pet sitting after having my friends, neighbors, and co-workers, ask me to watch their pets for a few days so that they were able to go on vacation, have a date night, go away for a business trip etc, and from there I've found myself continuing to assist going on over two years. One thing that has compelled me to expand my services has been the cost-to-level-of-care ratio and the hassle that Boarding has had on my parents, co-workers, and friends. As someone who acknowledges the constraints and the need and desire of pet mom and dads when seeking out care for their fur babies, I invite you to book with me so that we can make sure that your pet can feel as if they are at a "home away from home". I work from home and am able to dedicate the time, energy, and care required to take care of animals with a spectrum of needs. Dedicated room for kennels and boarding, fenced-in back yard, safe neighborhood, ability to take extended stays due to a flexible schedule, bathing, walking, and potty training
