“Linsie was AMAZING with our dog, Ellie. Our dog is a rescue and can be nervous at times meeting new people, but Linsie was so calm and kind with her! We even asked short notice and she was able to come through and help us! Thanks again, Linsie!”
About: Hi there! My name is Kali, and I’ve been an animal lover my whole life. I grew up with dogs of all sizes and personalities, and they’ve always been a big part of my family. We also had a cat in the house, so I’m comfortable around both furry friends! Spending time with dogs is something I truly enjoy, whether it’s going for walks, playing in the yard, or just relaxing together. I’m patient, responsible, and always happy to match the energy level of your pup, whether they’re playful or more laid-back. I have experience with dogs of all ages, from puppies to senior dogs and I understand the different levels of care and attention each one needs. I’d love to meet your dog and make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away! Now through the end of August, I’m local in Winona and work remotely most days. I commute to La Crosse only on Wednesdays (7:30 AM – 3:30 PM), so I’m very available in Winona the rest of the week. Starting in September, I’ll be commuting to La Crosse Monday through Friday, and will be available for pet care after work hours. I’m also available some weekends, and I’ll always keep my availability updated here so you know exactly when I’m free. While I won’t be caring for pets in my own home, I take pride in providing attentive, respectful care in your pet’s home where they’re most comfortable and familiar with their surroundings. I’m happy to help with feeding, walks, playtime, crating, or anything else they need within reason. Your pet’s well-being is my top priority, and I’ll treat your home and animals with care and respect!
About: I've been around animals my whole life, from dogs and cats, to rabbits and birds, even goats and turkeys. I'm always happy to be around them, and am more than willing to make sure they're happy as well. My family always knows who to call when they need the critters taken care of, no matter what. I currently have open availability, from morning to evening, and weekends are open to all. Nothing better to start the day than a walk with man's best friend. I can't board pets in my apartment, and depending on the dog/client wishes in question I tend to let them follow their normal routine. I always make sure that they get plenty of exercise and fresh air.

About: I've taken care of my own and other pets for 10-15 years. I am able to deliver medication and I've taken care of senior dogs many times as well.

“Heather is a true cat-sitting superstar! She did an amazing job taking care of my furry friends, and I couldn't be happier with her services. Not only was Heather prompt and reliable, but she also made sure my cats were entertained and content during my absence. When I returned home, my kitties were purring with joy, clearly showing they had a blast with Heather. If you're in need of a top-notch cat-sitter, look no further. Heather is the real deal! five stars all the way!”
About: I have had multiple pets throughout my life! I currently have a crazy staffy myself right now!! I have worked at a doggie daycare as well for about 3 years!

About: I have always enjoyed animal sitting and training as a hobby. My wife and I grew up in farm families and have cared for many animals. We have boarded and trained multiple horses, as well as raised calfs and chicks. We have many family members and friends we pet sit for. We work full time in Rochester, but our schedules are flexible enough to reach out and request us to meet up for boarding on weekdays. We are able to meet you for pickup if needed. We are also both home before 7:00am and After 5:00pm. During the weekend our times are generally flexible to fit your needs. We live on 5 acres just outside of Spring Valley Mn. Giving your fur babies plenty of space to run around and play. We met in the Army where I continue to serve in the MN National Guard as a Medic. We currently have two boys that love animals as much as we do. We allow your pets to be uncrated in our home and are more than willing to crate them during the day if that’s what you desire.
About: I don't have a dog of my own, but would love to have a partner to go on walk with!! I go on daily walks and sometimes even 2. I have two cats of my own and love them dearly:) I have a full time job that is very flexible. I go on walks in the middle of the day lots of times, and am also free some mornings and evenings. I care for pets depending on how owners want them cared for. Leash walk, off-lease walk, dog park, fetch…whatever is preferred! I have a small yard with an underground fence.
About: I have been watching dogs for over ten years for family, friends, and neighbors. I have also owned dogs my whole life. With a friendly pup of my own, we are always looking for new friends and ways to socialize. Your dog will be in great paws here! I have Tuesday’s off during the week and am available most weekends for a lunch time walk or a weekend get away for mom and dad. My pup is very social and loves making new friends. He is growing fast, so I have multiple kennel sizes if needed. I do live in an apartment, but in a very pet friendly area with lots of open space to walk around without having to worry about traffic.
