“Marcy is a wonderful dog walker for our little guy Champ. She cares for him like if he was her own dog. He loves her too!”

“Amy is always very responsive and quick to accommodate my requests. We’ve been utilizing her very frequently for about a month now. She sends updates and pictures every time she stops by to check on my puppy. I truly don’t know what I’d do without her!”

She also took care of our horse and gave him the love he needed while we were away. Basically, she loves animals! We would highly recommend her without hesitation.”

About: I absolutely love dogs, grew up with a Shih Tzu Poodle and now my mom has a pure bred Shih Tzu that I steal from time to time (see picture). My boyfriend’s family has an English setter and a blue healer, so I love hunting/high energy dogs as well! I do work a full time sales job, but it is very flexible when I have a heads up. I love taking dogs on walks after work as well, we have a really good dog park nearby! I live in a 2,200 sq ft town home, and a half fenced in yard. I don’t have my own dog yet, so doing this to get my dog fix in :)

“Acacia is awesome!! Ike loves her and is excited to see her everytime. She is super friendly, always on time and if I could have her babysit him I would. Definitely recommend!!”

“I wanted to take a moment to recommend Michael as an excellent dog sitter. He recently cared for our dog, Beau, and I was beyond impressed with his professionalism, attentiveness, and genuine love for animals. Michael made sure Beau was well-exercised, fed on schedule, and showered with plenty of affection. It’s clear that Michael is passionate about what he does, and he goes above and beyond to ensure pets are happy and comfortable. If you’re looking for someone reliable and caring to look after your furry friend, Michael is absolutely the person for the job.”

“Lidiya is amazing with my dog. My dog has very high energy and she goes above and beyond by taking him on long walks and going to the dog park with him. She keeps me up to date daily when watching him and also is good at administering medicine or vitamins/probiotics when I need her to. She has a lot of experience with cats and dogs and will ensure the best care for your pet when you are away. Would recommend her to anyone!”

About: I've been around dogs of all sizes and tend to get along with most. Especially love energetic dogs to run and play with. But the older and calmer dogs are great for hugs and affection!

I currently have 4 animals of my own so I tend to know how to take care of one. Spoiled rotten. I would take them for walks and give treats and lots of love.

About: I have always loved animals, whether it be a mouse or a horse. I also love to help people out, especially with dogs and cats. I’ve babysat one dog long-term (about 6 months), and I have been babysitting the same dog for about 2 years, since he was a 8 week old puppy. I also had a dog who passed away a few years ago, and had to take care of her in her senior years and help her get up as she had hip problems. In between dog-sitting, I did babysit dogs for a week, and usually wouldn’t mix dogs unless owners were okay with it. (these owners were from my work or teachers from my high school). I am currently attending college in Duluth. However, I do come home quite a bit Fridays-Mondays. In the summer, I will be very flexible though! I take dogs out on leashes as it makes me feel most comfortable but fenced in yards while watching the dog also makes me feel comfy as well.

“Sheri loves pets! She's very compassionate and gentle. She is very observant of the pet's needs, and is quick to attend to them. I would absolutely entrust my precious pets to her care!”

“Sunny is a wonderful pet sitter. She has watched our 2 Golden Retrievers and Cornish Rex on many occasions. Sunny is reliable, trustworthy, and a good communicator. Our pets adore her, and we always know that when we leave them with her they will be well looked after. I wholeheartedly recommend Sunny!”
