Fenced in yard and loves walks!
Pet care experience
**So Sorry to our Circle Pine clients and friends, but we have purchased a new house in Bloomington! We would still love to take your pups if distance is not a conflict!** I have lived with and cared for dogs my entire life! I have been sitting for friends, family, and Rover clients since Spring of 2018. I have extensive experience dog sitting for friends and family for various lengths of time. I also have some experience with fostering dogs and cats, which has taught me a lot about the needs of different breeds. When in my care you can expect your dogs will: *Have the option to go on at least 2 walks per day ( We welcome less active dogs too!) * Snack on homemade peanut butter or sweet potato treats( if given permission by owners) * Visit the dog park * Practice skills if applicable ( I have a good grasp on obedience skills and basic agility) *Spend quality time with myself and Guthrie ( a couple kitties too!) * Eat at their typical scheduled mealtimes * Receive safe medication administration ( My bluetick takes medication a minimum of 2x a day) Our home is completely animal friendly! We have a fenced in yard and plenty of interactive toys. I am an educator during the school year 7:00 am to 4:00 pm, but my husband often works opposite shifts than I, so if you are ok with the slight possibly of your dog being home alone for 4-8 hours, we would love to have them during the week! My weekend and summer schedule is a lot more flexible with minimum hours away from the house. We have a bluetick coonhound named Guthrie(who loves play pals, especially smaller dogs), two dog-friendly kitties*, and a gecko. We would love to have visiting friends to play, cuddle, and share our love of walks and treats!
Reviews
Kate and her husband took great care of our pup! They were very responsive to messages and kept our high energy girl busy and happy. We plan to use them whenever we need a sitter and already have Anoka's next stay booked!
We feel lucky to have found Katelyn and luckier still that they live near us. She took care introducing Murphy to their dog, Guthrie and the two boys got along beautifully. Katelyn went the extra mile and picked up Murphy from our house which helped out a lot. We could tell right away that Murphy was in good hands with Katelyn and Peter.
Katelyn was great to work with! She took the time to meet us and our whole family! She sent us updates & pictures throughout the weekend. We feel so lucky our pup had a great weekend. We highly recommend her! Thanks Again Katelyn!
My dog Winnie was very well cared for. I was sent updates and photos. They were very flexible with drop off and pick up times. It made our vacation so much easier knowing our pup was in such great hands!

No breed preferences- all are welcome here! Before taking care of your furry friend, I would like to know: *Estimated bathroom schedule to help them stay consistant, also if potty trained * Meal schedule * Wether or not they are crate trained * Allergies( we like to give treats!) *Medication instructions *If they will be ok with my coonhound and two kitties. * Any quirks you think I need to know!
A typical day
Because we live near a busy area walking our dog in a spacious area is a must! We love the trails at Mission Park and enjoy other areas down by the river. We also love to frequent the dog park in Bloomington. When the weather is bad or the pups are tired we also walk the dogs in the nearby neighborhoods- but not down Old Shakopee We have a fenced in *shared* backyard with grass area for running, playing and lounging. We also have indoor toys including dog puzzles and treat dispensers to keep the canines busy!
