Years of professional pet knowledge

Hello, my name is Xan, and I'm a professional dog sitter based in Minnesota. I have been caring for pets for about seven years now. Before moving to Minnesota I worked at an animal shelter and have an abundance of experience with dogs of all sizes and energy levels. There are no "scary breeds" to me this is a household for every pup who likes being around others! A thing to note before you book with me, there will be other dogs in the house and your pup will need to be dog friendly, I have extra bedrooms I can separate dogs in if there's ever an emergency situation but please be confident in your pups ability to be a good friend to others if you book! I go on daily walks midday, my earliest dropoff time is 7am and my latest pickup time is 7pm, unless we have a special agreement for differing times please be mindful as it's just me in the house. I hope to see your pups soon!

Xan is such a lovely person, I can’t recommend them highly enough! Fenris the Corgi is just a sweetie too. I really appreciate their help with my baby 😊

Safety, trust & environment

I care deeply about your pets saftey, each pet has their own special needs so I will discuss your pet with you and how to make sure they are in the absolute best care. I have a completely free schedule and can spend all day everyday with your pet, I'm experienced with getting pets to take oral medication, even if they would rather not take it. I want to make their, and your experience as comfortable as possible while you are away, deeply interested in listening to what works best for you!

Pets

A typical day

I have dropoffs starting at 7am and a day of fun ahead from there! We take walks midday and have lots of playtime and of course cuddle time as well. I have a fully fenced in back yard so everyone can run around when they need to burn some energy off leash as well.

0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
Spayed and neutered dogs only

The more care instructions you can provide the better! Especially for overnight care. Things that would be helpful for me to know are: •Will I be feeding your dog? If so please provide food and feeding instructions •Does your dog take medication? Please provide with instructions for that also, note that I am not trained to administer shots! •Does your dog have any specific things they are not comfortable with so if need be I can make plans to avoid having confrontation And please please please note other dogs will be in the household, if your not is not comfortable with other pups this is unfortunately not the place for them.
