“Cleo had a great time with Timmothy!! I loved his updates through the day and he asked many questions beforehand to make sure he understood how to care for her :)”

“We loved having Lindsey watch our dog, Maaya. She was very easy to communicate and coordinate with. She also shared lots of details and photos at the end of each day. Would highly recommend and have her watch Maaya again.”

“Alyson is wonderful! Our pup stayed with her while we were visiting town and I'm so so glad we found her. Alyson was super responsive and easy to communicate with and really flexible. Plus my pup was zonked out after we picked him up, so he must have played a lot and had a great time.”

About: Lifelong love for animals and years of personal experience caring for dogs, cats and birds. Little professional experience but wishing to expand. I have had an innate care for animals since I was a child, it comes naturally to me. I have experience with a variety of animal needs and maintenance. ​Working as a full-time remote attorney means I am naturally home throughout the day, allowing me to integrate pet care seamlessly into my daily routine. I structure regular breaks around frequent outdoor walks, scheduled feedings, play sessions, and attentive companionship, ensuring pets receive consistent attention, exercise, and affection without long periods spent alone. ​I prioritize safety by maintaining a pet-proofed, secure environment and strictly following every owner’s exact instructions regarding feeding, medications, and temperament. Whether caring for pets in my home or a client’s, I practice vigilant outdoor leash control, double-check all secure entryways, and send regular photo updates to build complete trust and peace of mind.

“Great experience having Robert watch my pup - highly recommended, especially for a high-energy dog. Will definitely be coming to him in the future when I need someone to take care of her while I'm in Minneapolis.”

“My dog Louie had the best day at Emily’s!! Emily works from home and keeps Louie active during the day. He loved playing with her dogs and the long walk he got! Louie will definitely be back!!”

“Emilie was so good to my dog, Walter. I felt really comfortable leaving her with him for the whole day. She sent tons of pictures of him while I was at work and said he played all day -- which was perfect! I'm definitely going to be rebooking in the future. :-) Walter was pooped once we got home.”

“Kira took our 8-month old Pomeranian for the day and provided many updates and photos. Otis looked very comfortable in her space and with her dog.”

“Nicole is absolutely amazing! My little guy is almost 15 weeks and loves to be outside. I greatly appreciated her taking him out for walks, making sure he was happy, taking him out for a multitude of potty breaks (sometimes 2 times in an hour if needed) and keeping me updated throughout the day. I highly recommend Nicole, especially if you want your dog to be well cared for!!”

Tesara P.

“She was absolutely amazing! I'm a rover sitter myself and have been for years and even though she is newer to the game she's doing absolutely everything right! My dog is very sleepy and happy, I will absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her”

“Hopps has enjoyed his days with Kara and the family. He looks forward to playing in the yard with Oscar, walks with the kiddos and having someone to follow around all day. Kara is so great at documenting the day with pictures and reporting on his activities. I know he’s in good hands 😊”

About: I've cared for over 15 different dog breeds since I was 10 years old, from high energy hunting dogs to cozy lap snugglers. Friends and family have trusted me with their beloved pets for years. With 8 years in animal welfare, I understand behavior and emotions, including noise fears, nervousness with new people, leash reactivity, shy/timid, resource guarding, seniors, puppies, and special needs pets. I also care for cats of all personalities independent explorers, playful toy lovers, and devoted snugglers. My goal is to give your pet a safe, loving, stress free home where they feel truly cared for while you're away. Each dog in my care receives personalized attention and love. For daycare and boarding, I limit to two dogs at a time to ensure quality care while they are in a new environment. When house sitting in your home, I can happily care for up to four dogs, keeping everyone safe, comfortable, and happy in their own home. I’m happy to provide photo updates, and our home is fully prepared for play, rest, and supervision. I’m home during the day, which allows me to provide pets with consistent attention, companionship, and enrichment. Every pet in my care enjoys a healthy balance of play, mental stimulation, walks, and quiet time to rest and recharge. Evenings are cozy and relaxed, filled with gentle supervision and snuggles, so pets feel safe, happy, and loved from morning to night. I have a fully fenced yard with secure gate locks to keep pets safe, and I’m happy to make adjustments using leads or harnesses for curious or adventurous pups. I also maintain an up-to-date list of urgent care and emergency veterinary clinics throughout the metro area for added peace of mind. Potential clients are always welcome to schedule a video home tour to see the setup and environment their pet would be in. My home allows for kenneling if needed, and I can provide large and extra large crates. I also offer separate spaces for feeding time and am located near several nearby parks for walks. For cats, I can provide a quiet, separate space if they need time to decompress. In addition to care in my home, I also offer house sitting so pets can remain comfortable in their own environment and routines. I’m located about 15 minutes from MSP Airport, which many traveling pet parents find convenient for drop-off and pick-up. Street parking is available in the area, and rideshares to the airport are typically around $20.

About: My beloved rescue pup has just turned sweet 16 in January 2026, and we have been together for a decade. Prior experience includes dog sitting for 9 years for doodles and various breeds. My dog loves relaxing days with new friends. Pet care is my daily routine because my dog is the most important part of my life. I am available every day because I work and play from home. I live on the first floor of a dog friendly apartment with a secure balcony equipped for quick potty breaks with a view. We are located next to a greenway for fun walking adventures. Since I am a homebody, I am always here to make sure your dog is safe, having a great day with new friends, and getting lots of cuddles.

“Jessie took great care of our senior dog! She was very responsive and easy to get in touch with. She sent detailed updates throughout the day and lots of cute photos!”

About: I pride myself on providing personalized, attentive care for every pet I look after. I take the time to understand each animal’s personality, routines, and needs, so they feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. I have experience with dogs of all ages—from energetic puppies who need consistent training and structure to senior pets who require patience, gentle handling, and medication support. I’m also skilled in basic obedience training, leash manners, and reinforcing positive behaviors, which helps maintain consistency while owners are away. Most importantly, I treat every pet as if they were my own—providing plenty of affection, playtime, and attention to detail that ensures their well-being and happiness. Pet care is my passion! I am fortunate to be home 24/7 and can keep a close eye on your pet all day every day. I have a calm and well kept home across the street from a pet friendly park. I care for pets in my home by engaging them in play and calm moments for when they need alone time. I am home full-time and make sure to be knowledgeable of your pets likes and dislikes, potty and walk routines, as well as medical needs and medication administration.

“Absolutely wonderful!! So kind and thoughtful with me and my dog, Walter! Absolutely would have Walter stay again.”

About: I have taken care of many dogs and cats over the years. I have had 5 dogs and 6 cats myself in my lifetime. I regularly take care of a 14 year old dachshund. I have been caring for him for over 8 years now. He comes to my place and stays up to a couple of weeks several times a year. My dog and cat both get along with others very well. Deru is the little guys name. He is a diabetic. I have many years of experience giving him his insulin shots and special food needs. I feel I can handle most any pets needs with little or no problems. I have many many references I can share with whoever would like them? I love rescuing dogs and cats. I love trying to help place them in loving homes. I also know many vets in town that would also give me great references as well. I can't think of anything I would rather do with my life than taking care of dogs, and cats!! I have a dog and a cat myself. My dog is a high energy dog so she gets dog park time every day as well as walks around her neighborhood almost daily. I only have a partially fenced yard. However I will not let a clients dog of a leash unless we are at an off leash dog park.
