“This is our second time booking Sam - Sam provided daily updates with photos, clearly gave lots of cuddles and time to our babies while we were away. House looks great and she is a phenomenal sitter, we trust her and our dogs enjoy her company, walks, and play time while she's here.”


“Kelsi did a great job watching our two pups for the day. Lots of attention and treats and even a surprise walk which I know they loved. Came home to tired and happy dogs. Kelsi even said she could stop back and let them out if we got held up. We will definitely use Kelsi again, I am sure the dogs would be happy to see her.”


“I can’t say enough good things about Angels dog sitter, Sandy! She took such amazing care of our dog while we were away. From regular updates, and photos to make sure all of Angels needs were met. Our family felt completely at ease the entire time. Our dog was happy, calm clearly well loved. We highly recommend Sandy, and will absolutely book with her again.”


“Kris gave my dog and cat excellent care! She walked my dog twice a day, fed them both on time and gave them lots of cuddles. They were relaxed when I got back home from my trip. She truly loves animals!”


About: I’ve had animals in my life since I was a baby. I have always enjoyed being around animals and playing with them and building trust with them and being able to cuddle with them on tough days. I have had different types of animals in my life. I have had dogs, cats, rabbits, Guinea pigs, hamster, bearded dragon. I currently work part time as a nanny on mondays and Friday and I also currently am trying to create my own business of refurbishing furniture when I have the time. So I am available most days. If yard is fenced I let them run and play and watch them at all times. Otherwise I will put a leash on them so they stay close. I will also pay attention to where they are at all times.

About: With over 10 years of experience dog sitting and house sitting for family and friends, I treat every pup like part of the family.🐶I may not have a dog of my own right now, but that just means your furry friend gets all my attention and love! Whether it’s walks, playtime, snuggles, or just being a comforting presence, I’m here to make sure your pet is happy, safe, and loved while you’re away.💛 Since I work remotely, I can turn any home into my “office” - which means your pups get company and care all day long!🐾From weekday fetch breaks to weekend adventures, I’m available when they need me. I’m happy to stay at your home so your pets can stick to their routine, and I’m totally up for long-term stays too. More time together just means more tail wags, more belly rubs, and more happy pups!🐶💜 I care for your pets right in their own home so they can stick to their favorite routines -whether that’s morning zoomies, afternoon naps in a sunny spot, or evening belly rubs.🐾Being in their familiar space keeps stress low and tails wagging. I’ll make sure they get plenty of love, playtime, and snuggles, and I’ll keep your home tidy so you return to both happy pets and a happy house. 🐶🏠🪴

“Our 14 year old Jack Russell is a spoiled little lady and has only been with us or Grandpa and Grandma. She’s a bit stand off-ish around strangers so a kennel was not an option for her especially at her age! Paige took time to come meet Roxie prior to her stay, and came a little early the first day of her stay to let Roxie get familiar with her while we were still around. When we left Paige and Roxie were playing ball and I knew they would be fine! Throughout the weekend Paige sent pictures and let us know all was well. Paige is reliable and communicative and great with animals! I will also add that I know Roxie had a great time and they played a lot because she now expects all of us to play ball with her constantly since Paige stayed with her!! 😉🤗”


“Tori did an excellent job taking care of our home and pups while we were gone. We have a very senior dog who needs medication and bathroom breaks multiple times each day along with a 1 year old puppy - not the easiest clients to take on ;) She also took care of monitoring the water for our backyard chickens. She was very professional, respectful and we will definitely have her back to our home in the future.”


About: Dogs have been apart of my life forever! The passion grew after working in pet retail for a number of years. I have been a Dog Mom, Dog Auntie and Foster Mom. I know the stress boarding can put on a dog, especially older dogs. I have been through a Reactive Dog course due to fostering. I have basic training knowledge from pet retail. I have helped neighbors and friends over the years, care for their dogs, while they have been out of town. I'm looking to expand my network. My normal work schedule is M-F, 730am-4pm. I have the ability to WFH, as needed, if more attention is needed for your dog. Otherwise my days/weekends are flexible. I live in Webster and work in Faribault. Looking for areas of Elko New Market, New Prague, Lonsdale, Northfield/Dundas, Faribault and places in between! I am currently available to dog sit in your home. That way the dog is in their own environment and not stressed with new surroundings. Once the dog(s) get to know me, I would be open to them staying with me. Dogs will always be on a solid leash, no retractable leashes, when outside of a fenced area.

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and enjoy learning about dog training, behavior, and breeds. I have experience caring for brand new puppies as well as senior dogs. I work a couple days a week part-time, so I have tons of free time to dedicate towards pet sitting/walking! My hobbies all have very flexible schedules, allowing me to take care of pets almost every day of the week. I have two dogs and a cat, all of whom are friendly towards other animals. I have a park with a large field near my house, as well as being able & willing to go on walks as long or short as the specific pet requires.

About: I've taken care of a variety of pets since I was a child including dogs, cats, birds, rodents,fish, reptiles, and amphibians. Our house was a veritable zoo growing up. Have had a dog as a companion for most of my life but cant currently afford one of my own and would love to help care for yours! Currently have full time availability but will be attending classes in the fall in Minneapolis, don't worry I'll make sure to keep my availability and service ranges up to date! Able to care for pets of all ages and energy ranges, be it multiple walks a day for you high energy friend, or lifting 70+ pounds to accommodate your elderly dog

“Dreonna went above and beyond for our two fur-babies!! We were gone for 6 full days and she really did such a wonderful job watching our house & our dogs. She even sent sent us pictures throughout our trip of our pups! We will definitely be reaching out to her again for future trips, she was amazing!”


About: I have had pets all of my life. I was a pet sitter in college for several families. I also worked at a doggy daycare & boarding facility where I fed, bathed, administered medications, let outside, and worked with owners to provide the best care possible. From June-August I am very open weekdays and weekends. August-May I am open evenings and weekends. I can be flexible with what works best for you. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I treat every pet like they’re my own, with love, patience, and lots of belly rubs. I create a calm, pet-friendly environment where animals can feel safe, whether we’re at home, on a walk, or just hanging out. I’m reliable, communicative, and respectful of your pet’s routine and your home. I’ve also worked as a nanny and personal care assistant, so I understand the importance of trust, attention to detail, and creating a peaceful environment. Whether your pet needs structured care or just a cozy cuddle buddy, I’ve got it covered!

“Heather was great! Scheduled a meet and greet in advance of our first reservation to do an introduction for our dogs. Very communicative and caring! Our dogs loved her!! We will definitely use again!!”


About: Hi, I’m Libby! I worked at a dog kennel for 4 years and have been dog sitting for families since high school. I’m experienced with all kinds of dogs and love making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. I’ll treat your pup like my own and keep you updated along the way! Right now, I work part-time retail (mostly evenings), and I’m currently looking for a full-time job, so my schedule can be a bit flexible during the day. While things are a little up in the air, I always make sure to plan ahead so pets get the care and attention they need. If something ever comes up, I’ll communicate clearly and make sure your pet is still well taken care of. When caring for pets in their own home, I try my best to stick closely to their usual routine to keep them comfortable and happy. I make sure they’re fed on time, get plenty of play and potty breaks, and feel safe while you’re away. I’m respectful of your space and always keep you updated with how your pet is doing!

About: I’ve owned dogs my whole life. I currently have 3 and live on a 6 acre farm where the dogs can run and play all day. I’m currently between jobs but anticipate that my next work will be WFH so I can care for the dogs and other farm animals day in and day out. While the yard is not fenced per se, I do have invisible fencing if your dog is used to that system. I have 3 of my own dogs that know the boundaries and stay within them. I have a 3 bedroom house with 2 of the bedrooms unoccupied so there is plenty of space. I have crates of different sizes of your dog prefers to be crated for any length of time. One of my dogs is crated when not home the other 2 are free to roam the house and very well behaved.

“Shelby helped me out in a last minute pinch, and was on time, very communicative, super friendly, and went very sweet pictures and videos of our dog for each visit! She was wonderful!”


“Kaylin took great care of our dogs! She house-sat for our family and sent lots of pictures the whole time. She even tidied up the house afterward which was extremely appreciated after we came back from vacation. We would definitely use Kaylin again for our house sitting needs. :)”

Vicki O.
“Vicki has, on several occasions, been our dog sitter. Reggie has always loved Vicki. We were neighbors so he'd stay at her house and I'm fairly certain he never missed us at all. She kept him for a month when we had to be abroad and even though he was happy to see us, he would have been completely content staying there longer. She would send us pictures of him, take him for walks, and play with him. She's great with dogs and a true dog lover that I would highly recommend.”


Rebecca P.

They have shown care to animals that are physically unwell and gotten them comfortable without pushing boundaries or aggravating the dog.”
