About: For over 5 years, I've been the go-to pet caretaker for many in my community. From energetic puppies to wise senior dogs, I've had the joy of caring for them all. My experience spans walking, feeding, bathing, and even some basic training. Every pet is unique, and I pride myself on recognizing and attending to each one's individual needs. Whether your fur baby needs patience, energy, or a gentle touch, I'm here to provide it. Balancing a remote job gives me the flexibility and opportunity to dedicate substantial time to pet care. I’m fervent about ensuring our furry companions get ample play and attention. I am open for boarding on weekends, and my weekdays post 11am are entirely devoted to caring for pets. Rest assured, your pets will enjoy ample time of fun and care with me! Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets. In my home, I've created a pet-friendly environment, free from hazards and with plenty of play space. All pets have access to clean, comfortable resting spots and fresh water at all times. If I'm taking care of pets in your home, I'm respectful of your space and follow all guidelines provided. My goal is to ensure that whether I'm in your home or you entrust your pet in mine, they are safe, happy, and well cared for.
About: I have two dogs and a cat. My dogs are 55-60 pounds each. I also have experience pet sitting and house sitting for several close friends. I’m currently not working a FT or PT job. My goal is to do rover solely, so I’m available every day for most of the day. I am very attentive and operations minded which means I’m punctual and organized. I’m also extremely empathetic and loving. I would treat your pets like I treat my own - with respect, divinity, and love. Play times are my favorite so your pets will have plenty of fun time with me. If you’re open to having my dog Marley in your home I can bring him for play dates.
About: We LOVE dogs and have a city sized house full of people that love giving them attention! We have 2 school age children but are home full time in the summer with a good sized fenced backyard and our own friendly pups, Oli and Lulu. I (Kara) grew up always having a dog in the family, and as soon as I could, I acquired one of my own. I've learned that dogs need people, but people need dogs just as much. All this to say, we can't imagine a world without these furry little companions! With many attentive people in our household, your dog will never have needs unmet. Whether it be snuggles, toys, pets, walks, playtimes, food... be assured we can handle it! We can't wait to meet your dog! We both work in education, so our summers are very open & flexible and offer so many opportunities for dog walks, dog parks, pet cuddles, etc. We have a fenced back yard and get on many outings with our own high energy dog. We do on long walks daily and often to the off leash dog park (if your dog is licensed in Minneapolis).
“I have Andy booked to walk my dog once a night while I work 12 hour shifts, and she is always so good about sending updates, providing pictures, making sure I know my Lucy is safe, happy, and getting some exercise and fun! It's a weight off my mind to know she is well-cared for, and Andy has been very reliable!”
About: I have CPR training, years of caretaking and medication administration experience, and a lifetime of loving on pets of all ages and sizes. Informal pet sitting has also been a part of my routine for many years. I have lots of free time this summer, and have many pockets of availability throughout the school year beginning in September, so I am happy to set up longer term relationships. I have a completely fenced yard, one friendly cat at home, and only a few steps for older dogs to handle. I am happy to follow any crazy routine you and your pet have!
About: I’ve taken care of many different pets my whole life, I grew up with many different pets in my family. I currently have a well trained pet of my own, my friends and family come to me when they are in need of a sitter. I’m currently a part time college student, so I only go to class on Tuesday and Thursday mornings, with my remaining time out of school, I have plenty of time to play and hangout with pets! I do not have a fully fenced yard but I do have a gated area on the side of my house. The gated area is big enough for dogs to run and play! I also have a small dog of my own to keep other dogs entertained!
About: I have 23 years of pet ownership experience (cats, reptiles, and a simple fish tank). I also have a bit of volunteer experience training service dogs and have taken care of friends' pets while they're away. I work my other job from home and determine my own hours, so my schedule is generally very flexible. I have a weekday evening commitment a couple times a week, but I can easily work around that two hour block of time. I love animals and will do everything I can to take care of yours as if they're my own. Let's discuss medical needs before booking, and I will make sure I have your vet's information in case of emergencies. I require a meet & greet for first time bookings. This is a complimentary visit to meet your animals, learn the routines, and ask each other any questions we need to make sure they get the best care.
“Teresa and our pup had such lovely times together! We are so grateful for Teresa’s communication, reliability, as well as patience with our young, high-energy pup. It can be hard for us to leave our dogs, however we could trust Teresa, knowing she brings safety & care. We’d totally book her again if she’d have us! Thanks again, Teresa!”

About: I’ve provided pet sitting and care for multiple dogs, and cats including feeding, walking, and maintaining routines for friends, family and even people around my neighborhood. I’ve loved animals since childhood, and even had my own lab for 16 years who I loved to the moon and back but sadly passed away late 2024. I know older animals require a certain level of attention and care. I love staying active, and high energy animals and I get along great! I do not mind larger animals. I have consistent availability on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, with additional flexible availability throughout the week depending on my schedule. I’m great with planning ahead and keeping a reliable routine with my clients! I provide attentive, personalized care based on each pet’s routine and needs. I maintain feeding schedules, regular walks, and plenty of attention to keep them happy and stress-free. In clients’ homes, I make sure to follow all care instructions closely, including feeding, walking, playtime, and any specific routines your pet is used to. I always aim to keep their environment calm, consistent, and familiar. I also provide updates and photos for peace of mind while you’re away.

About: Hi! my name Juliana. As an experienced pet caretaker, I have the knowledge and skills that make me the perfect choice for taking care of your pet! I have taken care of both family and friend’s pets ( cats and dogs) and I understand the importance of providing attentive and loving care to make sure they are comfortable and happy. As a Dachshund owner myself, I know how important it is to follow routines and keep in mind specific needs. You can trust that I will provide your furry friend/child with the same level of care and attention that I give my own. Currently my schedule is limited because I don’t work from home, except for Fridays. Therefore, I’m available Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays for walks and drop ins. I can easy walk your dog and provide the exercise they need around the North Loop / Downtown Minneapolis area. For cat owners, I can provide visits to make sure food and litter are taken care of. Additionally, I volunteer at Minneapolis Animal Care & Control with both cats and dogs, which has helped me to understand behaviors and how to manage difficult situations.

About: I’ve taken care of cats my whole life, from kittens to seniors, and since I was 12 I’ve watched my friends and neighbors dogs as well. I’ve given both cats and dogs medication as well as bottle fed them if they were too young for solid food. I have an incredibly flexible hybrid work schedule! Whatever you or your pets needs, I will be able to meet them without any work conflicts. You know your pet better than anyone. Whatever instructions you give me to keep them safe, happy, and healthy, I promise to follow exactly. I love animals and my schedule is very flexible, so whenever your needs are, I will do my absolute best to meet them!
“Kendall stayed with my two energetic dogs for a long weekend. She was great about regular updates and photos and treated my two girls like loved family members. They were not at all anxious when I returned, so I know she was a great choice for them and me. I look forward to booking her for my next trip, because I know they will be in good hands. Thanks Kendall!”

Curtis was great with my high energy husky mix! He arrived punctually for Toby’s walk and I could immediately tell Curtis had an affinity for animals- he was calm, attentive, and met Toby’s enthusiasm. Due to a scheduling error on my part, we had to reschedule Toby’s walk under short notice and Curtis responded quickly to my communications and was flexible with the adjustment. Toby was immediately comfortable with Curtis and I’d very happily have Curtis walk him again!
Teresa and our pup had such lovely times together! We are so grateful for Teresa’s communication, reliability, as well as patience with our young, high-energy pup. It can be hard for us to leave our dogs, however we could trust Teresa, knowing she brings safety & care. We’d totally book her again if she’d have us! Thanks again, Teresa!

Alex was so patient with my new rescue dog in her second day at home. She scares easily snd Alex was very patient. I appreciate him building trust with my dog. Also, Alex is a very friendly, nice guy also. I will definitely be hiring Alex again to continue to socialize my dog and give her the activity she needs.

Jessica was the dream to work with! She flexed with us when we were dealing with some unknown scheduling details, was so sweet with our quirky dogs, and was so responsive! We will reach out to her for all of our dog care needs in the future. You can feel confident your pups are in GREAT hands with her.

We really appreciate Kiah! She was able to come by on a last-minute request to give our sweetheart Leia lunch and take her for a walk, which meant so much to us. She did a great job and kept us updated — Leia looked so happy in the photos and clearly enjoyed all the belly rubs. We’re so grateful for her flexibility and care. Would absolutely recommend Kiah!
