About: I am currently in grad school and looking for a job that accommodates my schedule, as well as gives a little dopamine! I have taken care of my own dog for many years, so I know all the ups and downs of a chew-happy pup, to an old, sweet senior. I have babysat my brother's dog and his diabetic cat off and on for a few years so I am comfortable giving medications and shots. Right now, I am free anytime on the weekends! My schedule will be more open starting in September. Please see my calendar for availability and reach out if you have any questions. I am unable to take pets into my apartment as there is a no pet policy. I will treat your home with respect and leave it better than when I entered it!

“Donna was awesome. Have two sweet but strong dogs and she took great care of them on their walks. We were staying at a hotel locally and needed our dogs walked mid day. Highly recommend her!”


“Jennifer is a recurring dog walker for my Brittany. She is great! Has a great personality, and shows she cares about my doggo. She is flexible and reliable. Couldn't ask for anyone or anything better.”


“Sharron does a great job and communicates well with us on schedule adjustments. Fiona my Goodendoodle waits at the door for her to pull up to the house and is excited to see her every walk.”


“We would give Elizabeth 10 stars if we could!!! She is amazing. Elizabeth is a fantastic communicator as well as being very kind considerate and always on time. She walked out dog during some very inclimate weather while we were away. Her amazing work ethic gave us great piece of mind while our dog stayed with my 80+ year old parents. She is great with our dog and she immediately became fast friends with Elizabeth and eagerly awaited her arrival each day🙂.”


“Remy is great with my dog! She is communicative and thorough. I know my dog is in great care with her. She is also a great photographer and sends the best pictures! I highly recommended Remy!”


About: My name is Molly and I grew up in St. Paul. I have always been around dogs and cats, and have provided dog/cat sitting services to many of my friends’ families. This included overnight care, feeding, walking, and medicine administration. I have a passion for animals, and will provide them with the best care possible! I am a recent law school graduate and couldn't think of a more fulfilling way to earn some extra money! I am available to do overnight sitting, early morning and late afternoon care. I also have full availability on the weekends with a flexible weekday schedule! I am able to care for any breed and size pet, and will accommodate to any requests you might have! I am currently working full-time with a very flexible schedule that allows me to work remotely from home or any other location a few days a week. I have a fenced in yard and plenty of space for your pets to roam around. I am more than willing to care for your pets in your home, as that is the place they are likely most comfortable.

About: I have always been a huge animal lover — as a little kid, instead of checking out picture books or DVDs at the library, I’d always want to bring home the encyclopedia of dog breeds. I also would BEG my parents to let me use our family computer to browse the AKC website. Now, my husband and I have our own fur kids — loveable, friend-to-everyone boxer mix Rory, and wily, sweet cat Goose. We both absolutely love animals but can’t have any more in our home right now, which is where Rover comes in. Both my husband and I have experience with senior dogs and puppies with special needs, including sticking to a medication schedule and a customized potty schedule. Since I work from home a majority of the time, we can accommodate daytime walks/playtime and TONS of attention/enriching activities. Lastly, as a former nanny, I know the importance of providing frequent updates/photos/communication — I always want you to know that your pup is doing well and in great hands while you’re away. Can’t wait to meet you!! I’m currently working from home 4 days out of 5, so I have tons of flexibility to do daytime walks, playtime/meals/medication, etc. If we do have to be out of the home, we make sure to crate everyone so all pets have their own space, and for everyone’s peace of mind. I have a friendly, sweet 3 year-old boxer named Rory who would love to play with your dog if you’re comfortable— otherwise, she’ll stay at home and your pup will get all of our attention. 🥰

About: With over 20 years of experience, I am an expert in caring for dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies to cherished senior pets. My extensive background as a volunteer puppy sitter and raiser for future service dogs has equipped me with invaluable insights that I apply to my dog services. I provide personalized care tailored specifically to each dog’s breed, personality, and life stage, ensuring their comfort, safety, and well-being. Reliability, communication, and trust are the cornerstones of my services. I pride myself on delivering exceptional customer service, which sets me apart in the industry. Your dog will be treated like family—and I guarantee they’ll be spoiled with love and attention! Pet care fits seamlessly into my flexible schedule. I work remotely and enjoy spending most of my days at home, ensuring dogs are rarely left alone. I include them in my daily activities, like walks or adventures, to help them feel loved and build a strong bond from the start. It’s a rewarding experience for both the dogs and me. When away, I make sure that the dog is in a safe environment with all of their favorite things and toys to play with. Your dog's safety is my top priority. I have a freshly remodeled main floor designed with dog care in mind, ensuring a clean, secure, and stress-free environment. I use pet-friendly cleaning supplies and keep the home free from hazards that could harm your dog. Regular daily cleaning is important to me, and I take it very seriously to make sure your dog is safe and comfortable during their stay.
