“Isabella was reliable, punctual, and communicative. Isabella sent reports and photos daily. Luna was excited to walk with her every day and came home weel exercised,ready to rest!”

“I was a bit nervous setting up Ebenezer (Ebb) with a dog walking service. He can be reactive sometimes, and has some other persnickety behaviors we are working on. But I really wanted him to build confidence in the world without me. Katherine was WONDERFUL! She met with us before his initial walk to make sure Ebb was comfortable with her and she started building trust and learning his behavior while talked. Ebb just got back from his first walk... He is a happy and tired pup! 10/10 would highly recommend!”

“Carrie was amazing! Great communication, on time and great pictures of our dog for her walks! Millie seemed like she had a blast with Carrie and had lots of play dates with her dog! I felt very comfortable leaving Millie in her hands. Thanks again!”

“Emily & Timothy did a great job with our Daisy while we were away on vacaction! Dasiy was staying with my mom, and Emily & Timothy were flexibe, working with my mom for timing Daisy's walks. Daisy can be a stinker on walks, and Emily & Timothy were able to get her out for good, long walks, getting her the exercise she needed during our time away. Thank you Emily & Timothy, you were great!!”

“Erin was a life saver this week! With my husband out of town for a week and me with my hands full with a three year old and baby, getting out to walk our energetic and LOUD husky was going to be a challenge. Erin was always right on time and such a great communicator. I liked and trusted her immediately and Aurora Dog warmed up to her right away as well. She started waiting at the door for her in the morning. Thank you so much Erin!”

About: I've been an all-animal lover my whole life. I grew up with dogs, bunnies, birds, turtles, guinea pigs, and even had a snake. To me pets are family, and when I’m with yours, I’ll treat them like my own and make sure they stay safe, happy, and well cared for. I’m currently a fur mom to Miley, a high-energy Rottie mix who taught me how to handle big, dog-reactive dogs in many situations. I’m also a fur mom to Bubbles, my 10-year old little Holland Lop nugget. I've administered many kinds of meds over the years, trained pets, cared for recovering pets after surgery, and cared for seniors. Any size, any breed, or any kind of creature is just another one to love. (Except maybe a tarantula... I can't do spiders.) My schedule is flexible since I have the ability to work from home. When booking, we can always discuss your expectations for time spent in your home with your pets. As a baseline for house sitting, I guarantee 9 hours overnight, plus a minimum of 1 hour every 4-6 hours during the day and evening. I love caring for pets in your home or neighborhood for their comfort and safety. Being in their own environment helps pets relax and adjust more easily while getting to know me. I do have pets of my own, but they do not accompany me during any service. • I also believe communication is key. I ask every new client a few initial questions and require a meet-and-greet to make sure all parties are comfortable before the first service. Also, during your pet’s time with me, I’ll send 1–2 message updates with photos per day (depending on the service) so you can see how things are going and have peace of mind while you’re away.

“Kristine does a great job with my dog. He can be stubborn or get scared on walks and want to go home. If that is the case she will stay and play with him in the backyard. But she also gets creative and communicates with me on strategies to get him to walk and it has worked. Overall great communication and very timely. Would recommend her to walk or care for your dog.”

About: My son, 10yo, and I would love to care for your dog! We miss having a dog of our own and friends recommended Rover as a way to get our doggie fix! We had our last dog for over 12 years and miss him dearly. Please reach out with questions! SAHM and 10 year old boy with energy and time to burn with your pup! Rover is the perfect choice to fill the time between hockey and dance practice and get our doggie fix, too! We will come to you for walking, playtime, or bathroom breaks during the day! Open to a discussion regarding needs, expectations, and how we can help.

About: 🐾 Hi, I’m Jayme — your dog’s new best friend🐾 If there’s one thing you should know about me, it’s that I’ve been obsessed with dogs for as long as I can remember! 🐶❤️ Dogs have always been a huge part of my life. Growing up, my family had Huskies and I experienced four litters of nine puppies—yes, 36 Husky puppies! 😂 At one point in high school, we had 18 dogs at once! As an adult, my love for dogs has only grown. My family currently has three Pomeranians, and I regularly dog-sit for friends and their pups. I’ve also helped care for and raise four litters of Pomeranian puppies, so I’m very comfortable with dogs of different ages, personalities, and needs. Whether your pup needs a fun walk, some extra playtime, companionship while you’re away, or just someone who will love on them like they’re my own, I’d love to help! 🐾 Your dog isn’t “just a dog” to me—they’re family. ❤️ I’m available Monday through Friday from 10 AM–3 PM while my daughter is at school, giving me plenty of time to provide reliable, loving care for your pup! Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. With a lifetime of experience caring for dogs, I provide a safe, loving, and trustworthy environment where every pup can feel comfortable, cared for, and right at home.

About: Caring for animals has been apart of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up with pets and owned several of my own as an adult, so I know firsthand what it means to love an animal like family and what owners need when they hand them off to someone else. I'm comfortable with the full range of needs: puppies, senior pets, animals with medical conditions or special diets, and multiple pets at once. I've administered daily medications, followed strict feeding routines, and handled it all without missing a beat. Because I don't currently have pets of my own, I bring a lot of enthusiasm to every sit. Honestly, I miss having animals around and your pets get the full benefit of that. I take this seriously enough that clients have flown me across the country to care for their animals, which I think says more than anything else I could write in a bio. If you're looking for someone who will love your pets like their own and give you genuine peace of mind while you're away, I'd love to meet both you and them. Pet care isn't something I squeeze into my day. It is my day. I'm fully available and not juggling a rigid 9-to-5, which means your pets get consistent attention and care throughout the day rather than just morning and evening check-ins. Walks, feeding times, medications, cuddles, everything happens on their schedule, not mine. Whether you need someone for a quick drop-in or an extended house sit, I'm flexible and can make it work. I primarily care for pets in their own home because I believe animals are happiest in a familiar environment. Uprooting them from their space adds unnecessary stress, and keeping them in their element means they stay calmer, eat better, and settle in faster. When I'm in your home, I treat it with the same respect I would my own. I stick to your pet's existing routine as closely as possible, follow all instructions to the letter, and keep everything clean and tidy throughout my stay. I send regular photo updates so you always know how things are going without having to ask. My goal is simple: for you to come home to a happy pet and a home that looks exactly as you left it. The trust you place in me when you hand over your keys and your animals is something I take seriously, and I make sure you feel that from day one.

About: Since 2020, I've been providing dependable dog walking and in-home pet care for families in the Inver Grove Heights, West St. Paul, and South St. Paul areas. As a proud British Lab owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for your pets the way you would. In addition to dog walks, I provide drop-in visits for dogs, cats, and guinea pigs. Whether it's feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, administering simple care routines, playtime, litter box or cage maintenance, or simply spending quality time with your pet, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. My Yard: 5 ft privacy fence entirely enclosing the yard and deck. My Pet: 65lb spayed female British lab who is passive and needs a meet & Greet before we accept Boarding Crating? I follow your routine so if you want them crated, I will do that (some parents teach dogs to be crated at night). I would only ever use it other than your specific direction if I were to leave the house to store, etc. Dog won't be alone long - I am home during days. My family: 2 adults, 1 teen, 1 kid in house. Scope us out! Come visit with your pup for a meet & greet! Boarding: Occasionally I do accept dogs to board in our home. The dog needs to meet & Greet our dog first (she is calm, passive spayed). I only accept dogs to boardthat are up to date on vaccinations. We have kids and stuff (socks, toys) lays out...if your dog will ingest socks or "eat" things laying out, this isn't a good Boarding match. I believe every pet has a unique personality and deserves individualized care, patience, and affection. My goal is to give you peace of mind while you're away, knowing your pets are safe, loved, and receiving the attention they deserve. I am flexible during weekdays, mostly for check ins, potty breaks and feeding. In evening and weekends I am open for walks, check ins and feedings. I follow your Pet's routine as you detail it! Walks I require a leash. I send you updates and photos from walks or check ins. My House & Yard: Occasionally, we accept dogs for boarding. That is only if we do a Meet & Greet first, and determine our dog (9 yr old, calm and passive British lab, spayed) is a match. We would only boarding a dog in our home that is up to date on vaccinations

About: I’ve been around animals since I was a kid. Growing up on a farm, raising animals for 4-H, and having our own cats and dogs. I’ve never been without a pet in my life. Love meeting new furry friends! I work as a flight attendant, so I have several days off a month to take care of your pets! Usually I work long weekends (Thursday through Monday-ish, but only four days at a time), so weekdays are best!
