“Westley has been taking care of my 4 dogs when we go out of town for over a year now. It is so comforting knowing that he has a great connection with my dogs, knows our routines, and is exceptionally dependable!!”
2. Monica L.
“Monica did an outstanding job taking care of my senior dog and cat. Some special handling was necessary. Monica kept me updated twice a day with updates and lots of pictures. This was our first experience with Rover, and I couldn't be happier! Highly recommend! Thank you for taking such good care of them, Monica!”
3. Ali & Anneliese C.
“Anneliese did a great job taking care of my 3 cats. We returned after being gone to find all litter boxes were extremely clean and everything in order per my instructions. I will definitively use her again - she sent pictures and kept me updated while I was gone!”
4. Rylee W.
“Rylee was very friendly and communicated well. She sent great photos of my dog from her visits. She even expressed some concern about one of my cats when she noticed something odd with him while there for my dog only, which was very thoughtful. Will definitely use her again in the future.”

About: Do you have a dog that likes to run and stretch their legs? Well if so this is the perfect place! They’ll come home tired! I have a large property that’s completely fenced and safe. Your pup will have the best time here, and if they need more limited freedom I also have 1/2 acre of fenced yard that they can run around in and have a great time. If you have more of a lazy pup, that’s perfect too! I have lots of comfy dog beds they can rest on. All dogs have a blast here and never want to leave. I’ve loved animals my whole life and just have always loved working with & taking care of dogs. Thought this would be a great opportunity to do something I love while also helping the community around Greenwood! I work from home so I can give your pup all the attention and care they need throughout the day. Potty breaks, walks, play time, any special medication needed, etc I’m here to take care of! I live at home, so there are kids here (8+) but they all love and respect dogs. if your dog doesn’t do good with a lot of people that then this probably isn’t the best fit, my house is very large so they can always have a peaceful place to go if they want to be left alone, but overall, there are always people around. I have 1/2 acre fenced back yard that is at attached to the house but I live on a 23 acre farm with horses, cows, chickens. Your pup won’t have access to them but in the event something happens everyone is up to date on vaccines and we keep a very clean environment. I have 2 very friendly golden retrievers, they can be separated from other dogs if needed, but for the most part all dogs love them! And they are very respectful of other dogs personal space. They sleep with me at night but I also have the option to crate if needed!

“Sarah went above and beyond by far to care for our cats while we were gone for a couple weeks. She did much much more than what was asked of her.”
7. Ella H.
About: With 17 years of experience in pet care, I bring a wealth of knowledge and genuine passion for animals. My experience spans across various stages of a pet's life, from training a new puppy over the last three months to providing specialized care for senior pets. This broad range of expertise allows me to cater to the specific needs of each pet, ensuring they receive the best care possible. My proficiency in senior care means I understand the extra attention and gentleness older pets require, while my current experience with a puppy highlights my ability to handle high energy and training needs. My commitment to their well-being and personalized care sets me apart as a reliable and compassionate sitter for both dogs and cats. As a rising junior at Indiana University, I balance my academic responsibilities with my passion for pet care. My love for dogs is a significant part of my life, and I integrate pet sitting seamlessly into my daily and weekly routine. Whether it's early morning walks, afternoon play sessions, or evening training and cuddles, I ensure that every pet under my care receives the attention and affection they deserve. My experience with my own puppy and my deep understanding of pet needs make me a reliable and dedicated sitter who can provide consistent, loving care amidst my busy college schedule. Currently, I care for dogs at my home by providing a structured and nurturing environment. Each day starts with a morning walk to ensure they get plenty of exercise and stimulation. Throughout the day, I engage them in playtime and training sessions tailored to their individual needs, whether it's reinforcing good behavior in my puppy or offering gentle care for senior dogs. I maintain a consistent feeding schedule and ensure they have access to fresh water at all times. My home is set up to be pet-friendly, with comfortable spaces for them to rest and play safely. By creating a routine that balances physical activity, mental engagement, and relaxation, I ensure that every dog in my care feels happy, healthy, and loved.
8. Grace A.
“Grace is an amazing attention to detailed person, she cares so much about the world around including your little critters. Her dog Mowgli is very well behaved and serves as a testament of how well cared for your dog would be. She truly is a one of a kind person, who gets the job done to the highest standards.”
9. Alison H.
About: I have experience dog sitting both for big dogs such as golden retrievers, and small dogs such as shih tzus. I also have experience with taking care of multiple dogs in a home or just one dog. I have walked my neighbors dogs for many years, again ranging from small dogs to big dogs, as well as energetic dogs to dogs with great manners on the lead. I truly have your dogs best interest in mind at all times, and I want to give them the best care that I possibly can. You can always ensure that your dog will be cared for and get the exercise that it needs even on days with not-so-pleasant minnesota weather. Lastly, if you have a pooch with an excessive amount of energy, I can even take them on runs to satisfy their energy needs. I am currently a college student at the University of Minnesota, so I have a pretty flexible schedule! I always make your dog the priority in my schedule. Safety is always my number one priority in everything that I do. I pride myself on my ability to make sound decisions, and I will never do anything careless or that could put your pup in danger.
10. Amelia A.
“Amelia is great with cats. She keeps the liter boxes clean, plays with them and gives them lots of attention, along with a few treats. She is also a huge dog lover!”
11. Darcie B.
“Very happy with the service. I had a great vacation knowing my cats were in good hands. I enjoyed the photos of them getting love and attention. I would definitely hire Darcie again.”
12. Grace W.
“Grace took such good care is our cat and would highly recommend Grace!”
13. Cole Allen B.
“Cole was put in a situation that could have ended badly for all involved. The neighbors let their dog roam knowing it’s history as an aggressive dog. Cole was quick thinking and handled the situation very well. His communication and quick action saved the day. I can’t say enough about Cole and his professionalism and communication”
14. Kathleen E.
About: I have had dogs for as long as I can remember. One of my favorite things to do is take my dog for hikes and play outside. I have a work schedule now that allows me the freedom to take on more hobbies that fulfill me. I know what it’s like to be away from your pet for work and other commitments and I would love to help care for them during these times. I work a flexible home health schedule. I am off all weekends and evenings. I make my own schedule throughout the week so would be able to accommodate different schedules and needs. I will promise to treat your pup just as I would my own. I treat my dogs nearly as well as my kids. Their safety and happiness is so important to me.
15. Alex G.
“Alex is a huge help to me when I have sudden schedule changes and fits JJ in when she can. 👍”
16. Emily R.
“My husband and I were very impressed with Emily’s kindness to our dog and the attention and time she spent with her. We will definitely use her again.”
17. Cassandra S.
About: Hi, My name is Cassandra I have been a veterinary assistant for 6 years and have been pet sitting for 6 years as well. I can work with all kinds of different things including medical problems! I can’t wait to meet you and you babies I work every other day so on those days they would be in a crate for around 6-8 hours if I am watching them for days on end other then that I will be with them all the time! I have 4 babies of my own to help keep your babies company and I would leash walk while staying with me and be crated while I am away from home.
18. Kendyl M.
“Kendyl is wonderful. Found her on a whim and she’s been nothing less than excellent! She visits our dogs (and loves on the cats, too) twice a day. She’s reliable, good with the animals (including a hyper puppy), and is good communicator. She’s wonderful and I’d recommend her to anyone who is looking for pet help.”
19. Kelly N.
“Kelly was absolutely amazing with our kitty babies!!!! We have three wild, needy cats and leaving them for a week was really tough but Kelly sent tons of pics every day, played with them, was amazing at feeding them, and even got our shyest girl Ella to come out of hiding. Highly, highly recommend ?”
20. Taylor W.
“Absolutely amazing service. Taylor did a wonderful job. I was so comfortable with the care she provided. Our pets were so calm when we got home.”
