About: My entire life my family has always had two dogs, at least two cats, and a horse. My jobs have always involved animals. When I was in middle school and could not work I would spend my time volunteering at an animal rescue shop and at a horse stable taking care of the horses. My very first official job was at MN Horse and Hunt at the barn taking care of about 30 horses. I also had a 15 year old dog that sadly passed away recently. She had three legs due to an accident when she was a few months old. With this I have many years of experience taking care of a dog with special needs including special food, supplements, and even diapers. Every morning my dog or cat wakes me up, and it is time to let them outside and get ready for the day. Once I am ready they are more than excited to eat breakfast. Then I go to my morning class and let them out as soon as I get home. This is about my everyday schedule. The most important thing for me is making sure my pets are happy. I like to make sure they all get at least an hour a day of play and pets. I think playing is very important. Even my 12 year old cat is still very healthy, active, and playful. I believe the playtime really helps keep her body and joints healthy and capable.

About: When it comes to animals, I love them all. I have extensive experience working with animals especially at a non profit no kill rescue that is unique giving everyone a chance no matter if they need high amounts of medical care. With that background, I'm comfortable caring for cats and dogs with medical needs, of all ages. I am most comfortable with small and medium dogs that are easy going and like going for walks! I work remote from home and have flexibility to adjust as needed for weekdays and weekends. I do need advance planning for anything more than a drop in. It's deeply personal to come into someone's home and care for their fur baby, I understand completely! Part of the planning process involves asking questions about your needs, preferences, expectations so we are in the same page!

About: I am a certified veterinary technician as well as certified in Companion Animal Rehabilitation Therapy. I have been working in the veterinary field for over 10 years now. I love any & all things outdoors! Especially hiking with my dog! I would love to meet and help your animal get outside for some fresh air! I can guarantee that your animal will be safe and comfortable with me walking by their side! I promise to not only exercise your pet but also give them attention & affection with our time together! I can also drop in for happy visits as well as medication administrations. Feel free to contact with any other specific questions you may have for me! I currently work part time as a Certified Veterinary Technician/Companion Animal Rehabilitation Therapist. I typically work Tuesday-Thursdays. More often than not I can walk your pet after work (6pm) However, Friday-Mondays I'm fairly opening. I plan to only be walking your pets. That being said I can always drop in for happy visits or to administer medications if needed.

About: I love dogs, and more importantly, I understand them. A lifetime of caring for, interacting with and learning about animals has given me the skills to keep dogs safe, healthy, engaged, and of course, happy! I enjoy all types of dogs and all personalities. I have a degree in Veterinary Technology and took additional classes in dog behavior and am comfortable with dogs that are difficult for others, such as dominant or very timid. I feel a special connection with dogs that are unsure and love using my knowledge of them to help them come out of their shell. I have worked with hundreds of dogs in veterinary, rescue, boarding and grooming settings. I have attained a CGC with two dogs and done some agility. But mostly I love just being with dogs, mine and any I come across, walking, playing, snuggling, swimming, and anything that brings that smile to their face and that sparkle to their eye. I am honest, flexible, and will respect your property 100%. I am honored to be trusted by those I work for and am happiest when I hear "I didn't have to worry at all because I knew you were there".

About: I have never not had a pet in my life. Since I was born, my family has had two dogs no matter what. We have had the two same dogs for the past 10 years now and I have learned to take care of them whether that be bathing them, feeding them, taking them on walks, or giving them love. I can’t imagine my life without dogs and I love every single one I see! I am currently training as a professional hockey player so I have plenty of time to walk dogs. I love going on walks and am willing to take your dogs on walks anytime mid day to afternoon. There might be days where I have hockey practice in the afternoon, but I would communicate with my client to figure out a solution. I have walked my two dogs every single day for the past two summers and know many different areas to walk dogs that they love. My car is dog friendly if I were to take your pet to a fun new walking spot and I love to discover new trails.

About: Since I was a little girl, I've always held a love and care for animals. I cared for all, big and small. Always cared for critters growing up and started pet sitting when I was in Middle school. Over the years I have had experience with many types of animals and caring for many as pets, fosters, and pet sitting. I have cared for puppies, elderly pets that require medical care. I have fostered over 100 animals and pet sit for just as many. I have worked in a dog boarding establishment, and a pet store caring for reptiles, amphibians, and various small animals, and currently work on a farm part time caring for horses, cats, dogs, chickens. I have had dogs, cats, chinchillas, rabbits, sugar gliders, rabbits, tortoises, frogs, hedgehogs, hamsters, fish, shrimp, crayfish, birds, etc. in my care and am happy to provide excellent and quality care for any type of animal you need care for. I have 2 responsible older kids who love animals and we have a houseful of love and animals. We would love to spend time with your precious pets and I have the love, time, and resources to meet all their needs and adjust to their schedule. We believe in slow, positive intros, and a safe and happy environnent. I always keep dogs in my care in our new fenced yard or on a leash. Fence has technology to notify me if a gate has opened. I supervise during play time and separate animals during food times. Make sure they have everything they need, including medications, or extra cuddles, walks, etc. Work with animals using positive reinforcement and praise.

About: I have been around dogs my entire life. My family has raised, trained, and loved golden retrievers for as long as I can remember. I have even delivered golden retriever puppies! I love taking them for walks, fetching, petting, and playing with any dog! I have a flexible schedule at the moment and can work with your schedule. Starting August I will be coaching Volleyball in the afternoon starting at 3 and goes until 5:30. I care for my pets at home by making sure they are staying active by taking them on walks, keeping them clean by grooming them, and keeping them healthy by giving them a lot of nutrition.

About: I’ve had experience with dogs and cats since the day I was born. The past few years I have been working with horses. I am confident in my ability to handle any animal and care for them the way they need. In the mornings I professionally work with horses. Afternoons are open for me to walk your fur babies and Saturdays all day. Sundays I keep off to go to Church and worship. When walking dogs I always keep them on a leash or harness to ensure control and safety. I prefer walking on bike trails rather than the side of the road where cars are passing.

About: I grew up on a hobby farm with dogs, cats, horses, chickens and goats. I have always been around animals of all kinds. My friends and family call me whenever they need a pet sitter as I enjoy taking care of animals. I currently work from home, so I am able to have animals at my home, stay at client's homes with their pets or just stop by to check in or do walks. My work schedule is flexible. I own my own home with an unfenced yard, but I do have outdoor dog hookups and a friendly neighborhood to walk animals. My furniture is pet friendly and I always love a good snuggle.

Dayjah H.Star Sitter
“Ever since I remember Dayjah has had a care for animals. Growing up my sister loved to take care of all sorts of animals. At a young age in the spring you would see Dayjah taking her net to a swamp to collect tad poles and watch them grow up. It didn’t end at tad poles, she rescued an injured duck, rabbits and every day she would always visit six or seven horses near our house getting to know them by there names learning from there owners how to take care of them because someday Dayjah wanted to own a horse. Anyway her love of animals has never stopped. As an adult she has fostered several dogs and cats. And found great homes for them all making sure they were good fits for the people and the animal. I myself can thank her for my two cats that were her fosters. Taking care of animals is just what she does and she has done all of her life.”

Olivia G.
“My husband and I are seniors, and we have a goldendoodle, Rosie. Olivia has taken care of Rosie many times when we are gone overnight and takes excellent care of her. She also takes her to the dog park and plays with her and gets her to exercise and play. Rosie absolutely loves Olivia and gets all excited when I ask her "Is Olivia coming?" Olivia just connects with Rosie and is very protective of her and takes excellent care of her when they go to the dog park! I would HIGHLY recommend Olivia!!”


Desiree M.
“There is no question that Desiree would be a fantastic pet caregiver. She has proven time and time again that she not only cares for my dog, but other dogs as well. She is responsible, loving, and has the perfect set up for a dog(s) of any size. She is always more than happy to take them on walks, to parks, and is always spot on for chow time. Desiree makes it a point to make a strong connection with whatever dog she is caring for. I have had my dog taken care of by her a few times and will not hesitate in the slightest for future opportunities. Highly recommend!”

Katie M.
“I can't recommend Katie enough for anyone looking for exceptional dog care, nutrition insight and training support. Our dog was a notorious chewer and escape artist, and I was at my wit's end. Katie stepped in and made an incredible difference—not only in our dog's behavior but also in my confidence as a dog owner. Her passion for working with dogs is evident in everything she does. What truly sets Katie apart is her commitment to educating the community. She generously volunteered her time to speak at our Girl Scout troop meeting, teaching the girls about dog bite prevention and sharing other fascinating insights about dogs. Her dedication to her work and her love for dogs shine through in every interaction. If you're looking for someone who genuinely cares about your dog, Katie is the one.”
