Molly did a wonderful job walking our pups while we were out of town! We appreciated how punctual and communicative she was, sending us lots of pictures each time she visited. We could tell she gave the dogs lots of TLC and was very attentive to each of their different needs (one dog is a young energetic pup and the other is much older and low key). We’d absolutely work with her again!

About: I simply love animals and love caring for them. I am a dog mom to a very energetic, large boy. I understand what it takes to walk a dog that is not be the friendliest to other animals and people. I am confident controlling a leash, I understand dogs that suffer from resource guarding, and I am excited to work on and off leash to make sure your pup has the most fun possible. Your dog deserves understanding, care, and the best experience possible. I also have a lot of experience caring for chickens and am the happy mom of a back yard flock. LGBT friendly! Rover is my current full-time job, so I have a lot of availability on weekdays and weekends. I am happy to house sit on weekdays and weekends and walk at all times of the day. I work with my clients to understand who their dog is and what their dog needs. I know each person and pet may be different, and I am here to make your life easier by caring for your fuzzy friend while your away or walking them while you are out for the day. I have worked with animals that are reactive on leashes and understand how to ensure they have the best experience on their daily walks. I am communicative and eager to build an environment of trust with my clients centered around a joint love for our pets.

Tony was super friendly, had great communication and was awesome with our girls on their walks. Wrigley and Griffey were stoked when Tony came for their evening walks. My in-laws and my husband and I have nothing but great things to say about him! We will be using him again! Highly recommend!

Xinia has been great with my dog! She shows up on time is very kind to my Frenchie Harriet and even gets her stubborn doggie butt to go on a walk with her. Harriet is usually difficult to walk for strangers as she just stops and acts stubborn. The last time Xinia walked her Harriet was excited to see her for a walk! This is has been wonderful for me since I can't walk her for a while as I just had foot surgery.

I have a 1 year old German Shepard, who is pretty friendly for the most part but still has a lot of puppy in him. Full of energy and selective hearing =) Donna has been great for my boy and provides great updates on the walks she has taken him out on. I am very pleased with Donna. I will continue to use her as often as possible.

About: I grew up with cats and dogs, and I've had my own cats for over a decade. I got my own dog 2 years ago. I'm working from home on Mondays and in the office on Tuesday and Wednesday. I can come home over lunch if boarding during the week. I have a fenced in yard and a great neighborhood for taking walks. I can provide a separate room for pets, as well as a crate, if needed.

About: Hello, my name is Nora! I am an experienced and reliable pet sitter, open to caring for all types of pets. I pride myself in being careful and responsible for the pets in my care as well as reliable and communicative with their owners. Ever since I was young I have been interested and passionate about animals. When I was a child I cared for many small pets (mice, gerbils, fish, newts and toads) and starting around 10 years old I started cat and dog sitting for friends and family members. As I grew up I gained experience in animal husbandry and worked in two animal rehabilitation centers, feeding, providing medical care and caring for sick and injured animals. I am now based in the Twin Cities and have expanded my own fur-family - I currently have a 12 year old calico cat and a 6 year old bully breed dog. I am available full time for pet care. I can provide dog/cat/pet sitting and house sitting in your home, drop-in visits, or dog walking. When you entrust me with your pets you can rest assured that I will treat them as my own and will deligently follow any pet care instructions or routines. I am currently doing pet care full time, so I have an open schedule for pet/house sitting, walks/playtime or drop-in visits to check in on your pet throughout the day. I can provide care in your home, secure yard, or neighborhood/area that your pet is most familiar. I will always follow your care instructions and work with you to ensure that your pet is safe. I also have experience providing medicine to dogs, cats, and small pets.

About: I’ve taken care of a variety of animals my entire life! Now as I apply to medical school I’d love to help other take care of the ones they love the most! I currently work part time and have flexibility within my schedule. I have availability throughout the day to accommodate a variety of needs! Happy to discuss options. I have a golden doodle named Milo at home now but he is not the first! My experience with pets is a large variety. I’m happy to walk and let out your animals as needed. Make sure they have the best care and you have peace of mind that they are in good hands.

About: I have been told that pets are more comfortable with me than other people they've met- which is great because I love animals, ever since I was small! I am passionate about making sure that your pet is taken care of to the highest degree- as a member of your family, they deserve the utmost care. I have experience with cats, dogs and rats. These include animals of all ages (baby and senior included), dispositions (nervous & confident, low & high energy), and sizes (I am most familiar with small and medium breeds, but I am comfortable with big breeds too!). I work part-time, and am looking to fill my schedule doing something I love. I currently work Thursdays and Saturdays, and am otherwise able to work around your schedule unless I have important appointments. I love getting to know new animal friends! I understand that just like people, some are quick to open up and for others it takes more time. I take a gentle and open approach, letting your pet set the pace for the interaction. Since you know them best, your animals will be taken care of to your specifications. Unless otherwise specified, I will send you pictures of your pets so you can feel confident in the quality of your pet's care.

About: I’ve grown up around many pets and love their company. I often pet sit for family and friends. I feel very comfortable around all pets big or small! I am currently a student attending college but still am making plenty of time to spend with your pets! I’m available most weekends and some weekdays during the year. I will maintain a safe, comfortable, and controlled environment for each pet, and build trust with each pet owner by following their instructions and keeping an open communication with them.

Olivia helped me out at the last second and I would highly recommend her! She was very timely and followed all of my excessive little details (sorry!). I know my pup was in great hands with her. She even noticed, informed me of, and removed a potential hazard that I had missed before running out the door. I look forward to booking with her again.

I hired Madeline for several walks for my one year old golden retriever. She always showed up on time and wrote a detailed rover card. She was absolutely amazing caring for him and getting him out for walks. She was very thorough in his care, always refilling his water bowl and being conscientious of the hot temps outside. Would highly recommend. Thank you!!
