Pet Sitting & Drop Ins in Hawthorne, Minneapolis, MN

“Paige took on 2 visits for 3 cats at short notice. What a hero! (And she had to administer medicine as well!) excellent, clear communication and lots of photos so I could see my kitties were being well taken care of. Thank you so much, Paige!”

“Teresa did a fabulous job caring for my senior cat! Kate's a hider and Teresa always made sure to find her and say hi, and Kate even came out and ate in front of Teresa, which speaks to her warmth and how comfortable even shy pets are around her.”

Amanda H.

“So nice and accommodating!”

Cole C.

“Anne did an excellent job with my cat, Ruby! Usually when I return home from long trips, I can tell Ruby missed me and is starved for attention, but when Anne watched over her, Ruby seemed like a happy little content cat when I got home! I would definitely recommend and rebook Anne.”

“Dawn is amazing. She made my dog so happy that he was literally smiling. Dawn arrived to my house at the scheduled times, fed my dog, and played with him. I highly recommend Dawn and am so appreciative of her!”

“Amy is truly a dog whisperer! My very barky and unsure husky mix warmed up to her within a few minutes and has been great for all the visits. Our other dog, a little beagle, has been a cuddle machine with her. I would recommend Amy with 10 stars if I could. We are definitely having her back!”

Melissa M.

“Sydney took great care of my three cats while I was away, and I was so appreciative of all the detailed updates and photos each visit. She even gave updates on what kind of food my cats seemed more interested in that day (note to self: they are out of their beef pate phase!). I highly recommend Sydney for cat sitting and will book again! She went above and beyond to make sure all of their needs were met, including playing with them and making sure they were comfortable while I was gone. My babies were happy and healthy when I returned. It was such a relief knowing my cats were in safe hands, and I truly appreciated Sydney!”

Samantha S.

“Jessica has been so great with Phil! He needs to stretch his legs during our longer work days and Jess has been wonderful! She has given us the peace of mind as we transition to working out of the home full time!”

Erin & Brian G.

“Great with Otto. He had a family emergency and wasn't able to complete the drop-ins, but he was communicative about it, which I appreciate greatly.”

Jane S.

“Great!”

Ashley W.

“Great job with my animals!”

Tyrese S.

“Andrew came through with almost no notice and showed up promptly—total lifesaver. He was kind, calm, and instantly won over Princess Leia 🐾 (she says he’s welcome back anytime to play). Highly recommend!”

About: As a mom of two cats, a trusted cat-sitter to friends, and an animal lover my whole life, I’m so excited to meet your pet! I grew up around dogs and cats, and am comfortable caring for all cats, and small/ medium dogs. I’m always going to look out for your pet and their best interest — and through my own experience being a pet owner for 3+ years and growing up with pets, I know I have the skills, knowledge and compassion to become your new favorite sitter! I won’t just stop by to feed, scoop litter, or walk — I’ll give your pet lots of love, playtime, and care tailored to their routine and needs. I’m reliable, communicative, and will always be respectful of your space. You’ll get lots of updates (with many photos!), and I’m happy to follow detailed instructions for medications, feeding, or quirky habits your pet may have! You can relax knowing your pets are in loving, capable hands. :) I work full-time, but work from home twice/week on Tuesdays and Fridays — so can stick around for longer visits those days to keep your furry friend company! On the other week days, I work in the office, but have the flexibility in my day to come before or after work for potty breaks, walks, or checking in and care for your cat/dog! Whether you’re going on vacation or have a lot going on during the week, I’m happy to help :) I know every pet has their own personality, and I will take the time to get to know them so they feel safe, loved, and stress-free while you’re away :)

“Thank you coming over on short notice”

“Chloe was a superb dog sitter! We are so grateful she could stop in to care for our senior dog when we needed extra support. Would totally have Chloe back again.”

Danielle D.

“Meghan was responsive, friendly, asked questions to make sure she understand what was needed, arrived on time, and followed instructions. I would book Meghan again to care for my cat!”

Benjamin R.

“Peter cared for our 3 large dogs with no hesitation! He was a great communicator and very flexible with our schedule. We would definitely trust him to come back any time!”

About: Hi, I’m Izzy! I am a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for pets of all kinds. I’ve volunteered with the Animal Humane Society, where I worked directly with dogs and cats of all temperaments, helping with feeding, enrichment, socialization and general care. That experience taught me how to read animal behavior, build trust, and make every pet feel safe and loved. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, or quiet companionship, I treat every animal like they’re my own. I’m reliable, patient and passionate about keeping pets happy and healthy while their families are away. You can count on me to provide attentive, loving care, and plenty of updates and photos along the way! I am not working at the moment, so I will be around most of the time to take care of your pet. I may step out to run errands, but other than that I’m a big homebody! I start by learning about each pet’s schedule, personality and any special needs, whether that’s medication, favorite toys or walking routes. I make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and affection, along with clean water, fresh food and a tidy environment. I’m comfortable following detailed care instructions and take pride in keeping both your pets and your home well cared for. I’ll keep you updated with messages and photos so you can relax knowing everything is going smoothly. My goal is to make your pets feel safe and loved while you’re away, and to leave your home just as you left it.

“Wonderful!! Thank you so much Juliana! You gave our puppies a much needed break and on top of it, you came with such short notice on Thanksgiving Day! You’re awesome!! Mike and Claudia Wondra”
