Dog Sitting in Itasca

About: I’ve been pet sitting for a couple of years and have experience caring for dogs of all ages and personalities. I’m comfortable with puppies as well as senior dogs who may be hard of hearing or losing their sight, and I always make sure they feel safe and comfortable. During visits I can provide feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, playtime, and lots of attention. I aim to follow each pet’s routine closely so they feel relaxed while their owners are away. My goal is to provide dependable, caring service so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands. I am a fairly new stay at home mom so I have plenty of time on my hands to take care of your pets! I schedule feeding, potty breaks, playtime, and attention around my baby’s naps and feeding times, so your pets always feel safe, loved, and happy. I plan longer walks or extra play sessions during calm times, making sure both pets and family stay comfortable and cared-for throughout the week. While caring for your pets in your home, I follow the routines and instructions provided by you to ensure consistency and comfort. This includes feeding, providing fresh water, letting dogs outside for potty breaks, cleaning litter boxes, offering playtime or walks, and giving lots of attention and reassurance. I make sure your home remains safe and secure, and I always respect your space and belongings. My goal is to provide a calm, reliable, and loving presence so pets feel happy, safe, and well-cared-for while their owners are away.

“We needed a fairly last minute drop-in visit on the night of Thanksgiving since my fiancé worked overnight and I had to go out of town, and Spencyr came to the rescue for us! He even offered to come later at night so that they wouldn’t go a long time until being let out in the morning. Lots of videos were sent and he did great for this drop-in! Thanks Spencyr!”

About: I went to college to be a Vet and although I ended up in sales I definitely learned the basics on how to take care of your pet. I’ve cared for dogs of all ages and energy levels, from energetic puppies who need structure and training reinforcement to senior dogs who require a little extra patience and care. My background as a vet student also means you can trust me to be consistent, communicative, and professional. Pet care fits perfectly into my routine! 🐾 I’m pivoting from sales into marketing and, while job-hunting, I love spending my time caring for dogs. With a flexible schedule, I can give your pup all the walks, playtime, and snuggles they need. 💕 follow your pet’s routine to keep them happy and stress-free—feeding, walks, playtime, and snuggles included. 🐾 I’ll also keep things tidy and send photo updates so you always know how your pup is doing. 💕

About: I’ve been loving and taking care of dogs my whole life. I have been living with them for as long as I can remember. I have taken care of senior babies, puppies, and everything in between. I have two fur babies of my own that I have been responsible for since I was 12. I also have been taking care of guinea pigs since I was 14. I am recently graduated from high school and very responsible. You can count on me for the best pet care! I am free most of the time and school has just ended. If you need pet care at all for the summer, I’m your girl! I take care of my own pups every day and I have a really clear schedule since school is out! I care for pets by playing and loving them unconditionally! Anything you want I can do! I love taking them on walks and I can easily crate if needed.

About: I’ve had pets my entire life and can’t imagine a home without them! From a young age, I helped care for my own dogs and quickly became the go-to sitter for family and friends. Over the years, I’ve gained experience with pups of all ages, sizes, and personalities — from playful puppies to senior dogs who need a gentler touch. I understand how important it is to know your pet is safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away. That’s why I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family — with patience, consistency, and lots of love (plus belly rubs and playtime!). Whether it’s walks, cuddles, or keeping up with special routines, I’ll make sure your furry friend feels right at home. I’m currently in grad school completing my rotations during the week, but my weekends are wide open for pet care. Since I already have four dogs of my own, caring for pets is a natural part of my daily routine — from walks and playtime to feeding and cuddles. Because of this, I’m used to balancing schedules, staying organized, and making sure every pup gets the attention they deserve. I’m mostly available all day on weekends and can give your pet plenty of love, exercise, and care during that time. If I stay in your home, here’s how I’ll care for your pets— my priority is to keep your pets safe, comfortable, and happy while maintaining their normal routines. I’ll make sure they’re fed on schedule, get their regular walks or playtime, and of course plenty of cuddles and attention. I’m experienced with everything from energetic pups to seniors who need a slower pace, and I’m happy to follow any special instructions or routines you have in place. I also respect your home as if it were my own — keeping things clean, tidy, and stress-free so you can return with peace of mind.

About: I’ve had animals all my life. Growing up I had a husky, until about 4 years ago and now i have a cat. i love all animals. I am a young woman in my 20’s and live a very active life style. I am an entrepreneur so I make my own work schedule. I love all animals and felt this is a great way to make extra money! I am very communicative which I feel makes me a more reliable pet care taker when you’re away. Growing up I would always watch my moms friends dogs while they were out of town.

About: I’ve always had a loving heart for animals since I was little kid. My friends, family and neighbors have always trusted me to make sure that there animals are kept safe. I am currently in college doing in person school on Tuesday’s and Thursday’s but other than that I am ready to be there for you animal whenever you need! I have a fenced in backyard with one labradoodle who loves to play and meet with new friends. I love spending time with pets in general and making them feel at home.

About: I have hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments, from toy poodles and pugs to larger breeds like Labs, Boxers, and Great Danes. I currently have two dogs of my own, a Black Lab and a Black Mouth Cur, so I’m very familiar with maintaining routines, energy levels, and providing consistent care. I’ve also had experience in more high-responsibility environments, including helping care for multiple dogs at once, sometimes up to 10, ranging from newborn puppies to senior dogs. This included feeding schedules, monitoring behavior, keeping dogs separated when needed, and making sure each dog received proper attention and care. Because of this, I’m very comfortable with: high-energy dogs and active breeds, puppies and more demanding care routines, multi-dog households, and reading dog behavior and adjusting care accordingly. What really sets me apart is that I’m calm, attentive, and genuinely enjoy being around animals. I focus on making sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owner is away. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine, as I already care for my own dogs and structure my day around their needs. I am available Monday through Saturday with a very flexible schedule, which allows me to provide consistent care, attention, and maintain each pet’s normal routine. Because of this flexibility, I’m able to accommodate walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and overnight stays while making sure each pet gets the time and attention they deserve. For the safety and comfort of all pets, I do not host other dogs in my home since I have dogs of my own. Instead, I focus on providing care in the client’s home or within the pet’s familiar environment, where they feel most comfortable and secure. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their established routines as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions. I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, and care while maintaining a calm and consistent environment. I am also comfortable transporting pets for walks, outings, or appointments if needed, and I always prioritize safety, secure handling, and clear communication with owners. My goal is to make sure each pet feels safe, relaxed, and well cared for while their owner is away.

In my home, as well as when caring for pets in my client's home, I prioritize safety, trust, and creating a nurturing environment for furry companions. Living in a quiet neighborhood away from the highway, with a fenced-in yard and ample space for animals to run and play, I ensure that pets under my care have a secure and comfortable environment to thrive in. When pets are in my home, they become part of the family, receiving personalized attention and care tailored to their needs and preferences. Whether it's providing a cozy spot for them to relax, engaging in stimulating playtime activities, or ensuring they receive their meals on time, I go above and beyond to make them feel at home. Similarly, when caring for pets in their own environment, I prioritize maintaining a familiar and safe space for them. I respect their routines and surroundings, ensuring minimal disruption to their daily lives while providing the same level of dedicated care they would receive at home. With a background in managing a stable of horses and a lifelong dedication to animal welfare, safety is always at the forefront of my mind. You can trust that your beloved pets will be in capable hands, receiving the highest level of care and attention in a secure and nurturing environment.
