Dog Sitting in Mankato

“Morgan was an excellent caretaker for my cats. She arrived at the expected times and made sure to send photos of what they were up to each day, and she communicated regularly about their habits—e.g., one cat didn’t want her food one day, but soon went back to normal. The cats clearly enjoyed her company, and everything was perfectly in order when I returned home. Morgan also went above and beyond to leave me a hand-written daily log of activities and the cats’ behaviors. I would definitely book Morgan again and recommend her to friends with pets!”

“I’ve just moved to Mankato and Ryan has been helping me with my two dogs Kiba and Pearl. He is such a reliable and very friendly dog lover. I can trust him with my two dogs, and that is something I don’t do a lot!”

About: I grew up with a Maine Coon cat for 19 years and Golden Retriever for 9 years (he lives with my parents ☺️). I am well versed in everything cat and dog. Family and family friends have relied on me to take care of their pets for many years. From cleaning out litter boxes to bathing 85 pound dogs, I have experience with it all! I currently WFH with plenty of flexibility throughout my day to play with and care for your furry family member! Being with animals is by far the best part of every day for me. My client’s can rely on me to take care of their furry family member with the utmost care in a variety of environments. From playing in the backyard, to walks through the neighborhood, or just cuddling up on the couch.

About: Hi there! I’m Wendy, an animal lover and dedicated pet caregiver with over 2 years of experience in dog walking, pet sitting (cats as well), and overnight care. I believe every pet deserves a loving and safe environment, and I strive to provide just that for your furry family members. I am currently available over the weekends, weekdays, and nights. Free for summer break, so I will be available for extra hours if need be. I customize my services to fit your pet's needs and routines. You’ll receive daily updates and photos, so you won’t miss your furry friend while you’re away. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, from energetic puppies to calm seniors.

About: I've had dogs my entire life and I've been caring for my own and my friends/neighbors since I was 9. When I watch my neighbors' dogs, I walk them, play with them, give medicine (if needed), and make sure they're not lonely! I love the dogs I watch as if they were my own. I am 21 years old and in college at Minnesota State University (majoring in Recreation and Parks Leadership Studies). I love all furry friends and will treat them as my own. I have one dog who is 4, his name is Percy- he is a mixed breed that I adopted from BENCHS. He is full of energy and loves to run. I will be sure to keep your dog safe on walks and keep them happily entertained. When walking dogs, I make sure they're safe and will safely remove them as quickly as possible from a situation. (Example: The dog I'm walking doesn't get along with other dogs or has a high prey drive, I will redirect them somewhere else until it's okay to continue the walk)

“She did really well with caring for my 2 kitties while I was on vacation. I would definitely consider her and will be having her for future vacations.”

About: I watch friends pets all the time while they are away, not an expert at animals by any means but know how to love them well! I am a nurse and looking for things to keep me busy on days off! I have a doodle myself and we love getting outside and walking! Let me know your normal routine and ways of doing things, rules for your furry friend and I will do my best to keep it just the same!

About: I've taken care of taken care of dogs for family and friends for two years including feeding, walking them, and playing with them. I'm comfortable with all sizes of dogs. I have yet to meet a dog I did not like. I'm currently working full time, but I'm free on my lunch hour to let pets out on potty breaks. I'm also available after work for potty breaks and a walk. All pets would be loved and given plenty of attention. I would want to make sure the pet feels safe around me and I around them.

About: I’ve always had a deep love for animals, and the idea of becoming a dog walker and sitter feels like the perfect way to combine my passion with a meaningful job. Spending time with dogs, taking them on walks, and giving them the attention they need brings me immense joy. I love the idea of helping dogs get the exercise and companionship they deserve while providing peace of mind to their owners. Whether it’s a long walk in the park or some quiet time at home, I’m excited by the thought of offering both dogs and their owners a stress-free and enjoyable experience. I am currently a full time aviation student and Minnesota State Mankato, and work a part time online job. I am available during most nights, weekends, and sometimes during the day (depending on class and flight time). I am unable to have pets in my apartment but I am more than willing to visit your pet in the comfort of their home when it is needed!

About: I’ve had dogs at my farm my whole life (two up until I was about 10.) Currently we have a german shepherd husky mix! She’s an outside dog who has TONS of energy! When my aunt and uncle leave I take care of their dogs! 3 labs (one of each) and one is only about a year old! I work part time usually during the evenings! Dog care is a big priority for me so making sure they have everything needed is a must! I usually work 4-6 hours! Pets will have access to a big back yard on a leash (not fully fenced in!) In a clients home I will be respectful of their property while taking care of their dog to full-fill their direction!

“Madalyn was awesome! She took extra time to get to know our pups and sent us plenty of updates while we were away. Will reach out to her again!”

About: Hi all! My name is Brianna and I live in the Mankato area. I have had dogs my whole life and am very comfortable around them. I currently have a 16 year old beagle named Duke who I took in as a rescue during my junior year of college. It's been a learning experience but he's taught me so much about being a good dog mom! I am mostly looking for dog sitting and walking experiences but am also available for house sitting. Please message me with any questions and I look forward to booking with you! I have part time hours at work over the summer so I have lots of free time to take care of your most special friends! I do not have a fenced in yard but do live near some walking trails that Duke and I often frequent. We also live less than a mile from the local dog park!

About: I have spent the past three summers doing overnight dog sitting in my hometown just about every weekend. I have been recommended and continue to get new jobs. I am a part time student at the University of Minnesota so I have plenty of free time. I also serve in the army national Gaurd. I have now been dog walking and dog sitting for over 3 years in Mankato and would love for more opportunities. I am a part time student at Minnesota State Mankato and only have classes in the morning so I have plenty of free time in the afternoon and overnight. In the summer I am home in Brownsville Minnesota and looking for more opportunities near me Over the past three summers of my dog sitting career I have had 5 clients that have me stay at their house over the weekends while they are gone. I love running and exercising so the animals are sure to stay active. I have not run into any problems in the three years I have pet sit before.

“She did awesome with our small farm! Thank you!”
