Dog Sitting Minnetrista

“Desiree completed multiple drop-in visits (2x daily) during a week-long vacation for my two senior cats. Mr. Twix is diabetic and requires insulin injections twice a day. Desiree was happy to stop over ahead of the trip to go over insulin and daily routines. I asked for photo updates and Desiree was happy to share! She graciously cleaned one poo mess and even helped reset the fuse box when the cat fountain stopped working. Twix and Butters were calm and happy when I arrived home. I felt comfortable on my trip knowing the kids were getting love in my absence!”

“We had a great first experience with Georgeanne. She was reliable and pleasant, and our dog warmed right up to her. He was sad when she left. We definitely plan to use Georgeanne in the future.”

“Kayden was fantastic! She was reliable, communicative, and took such great care of Jax while we were away. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was getting lots of love and attention, and she always made sure he was doing well. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with Kayden again. Highly recommend!”

About: I have been pet sitting formally for nine years. I have experience with cats, dogs, mice, birds, turtles and more! Of all ages. I have given oral medication, insulin shots and medicated eye drops. But my favorite thing to do is cuddle with the critters and go on walks! I currently work full time as a nanny. That is Monday-Friday 8 to 4. When pet sitting, I limit my after work activities to make sure the animals needs are met with due care. I am available week days, ends and holidays. I provide care in my clients homes only. I unfortunately do not have the ability to do so in my apartment. I take great care to follow the rules and guidelines the owners provide in regards to home and animal care. Be that about garbage day, taking in the mail or making sure the animals follow their routines.

“Natalie is absolutely incredible with my girls! I have one puppy and one senior dog, so they come with a lot of quirks! She is quick to respond and connects with me about any questions or concerns. I cannot recommended her enough! We are so lucky to have found you 💕”

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 had pets my whole life and cared for my own for the past 20 years. I've had all creatures small (hamster) to large (St. Bernard). I currently have 2 dogs, a hamster, and 4 chickens. My family and I have also fostered pups through a local rescue for the past 5 years. We have aided in puppy training to senior care through both personal pets and fostering. I also work at a vet clinic with regular interaction with all sorts of animals. Outside of all the experience, I love animals. I love playing, snuggling, training and treating all animals as if they are my own. I have 3 children who have also inherited my love of animals and love to interact with any pet that comes through our home. ❤️ Both adults in the home work. My hours are part time allowing more availability to spend with your pet. Our resident dogs have free roam of the house for up to 6 hrs unattended, but can be crated if need be. There is typically someone home until 10am each day and home by 3. Potty breaks and cuddles in the morning and then walks, and lots of cuddles in the afternoon and evening. 1 weekday and weekends there is someone home all day to give all the attention. Our resident and foster pups have a basic schedule of eating and morning, afternoon and evening potty breaks in our backyard. Dogs that are trained well on a leash, or new puppies that need training, will get 2-3 walks a day. We have cozy places for naps and all pets are allowed on furniture. Depending on the pet we are happy to let them free roam or crate, whatever the preference is of owner for times we are not home. Between the adults and kids in the home, your pet will get lots of cuddles and playing, treats and mind stimulation.

“Ciboney was great with Kylo! She was easy to schedule with and was always on time to check on him. I would highly recommend and will used her again in the future when we go out of town. Thanks again for helping us!”

About: I recently lost my beagle of almost 15 years and I’m looking for some furry play time. I have had a dog my whole life and appreciate all types. My beagle had several health ailments throughout his life so I am comfortable with medications and special needs. I was so grateful for the dog sitters I had, I am looking to provide the same comfort and security to you and your dog while you’re away. I currently work full time throughout the week, 8-4pm but my routine and schedule are very flexible if I need to come home during the day. My home has a fenced yard for your dog to get plenty of exercise. I don’t have any other pets in the house on a regular basis.

“Truly a wonderful experience! I was out of town for a wedding, and had to leave my anxious pup alone for the first time. Gabrielle made the process so easy - and made sure to keep me updated and took good care her! She kept up with her meds, and paid close attention to other dogs while out on walks. Will be booking again!”

About: Hello, Pet Parents. My name is Cory, and I'm going to tell you a bit about myself! I've always been involved with animals in my life and have had many pets! I've had 3 dogs, mice, hamsters, and even a frog! Not only have I had pets, but I've had past experiences with pets and pet owners, and here are some as follows! ————————————————————— Experience: Worked for an adoption center where I took care of dogs and cats. Dog walking Pet sitting Many animal based classes Currently working at a board and train facility Training/Fostering a soon to be police dog that will be stationed at a middle school and helping with tracking cases ————————————————————— If you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask! I'm currently working part time so I'll have plenty of time to take care of your fuzzy little friends whenever needed! I'll always talk to you about openings in my schedule that fit with yours! I have a couple pets, a Sheprador which is a German Shepherd and Labrador mix named George, and a hamster named Baba. I feed my dog George twice a day making sure to let him outside right after, I regularly brush him because he just doesn't stop shedding, I wash him every other month so he doesn't get stinky, give him all of his medication for his allergies, and just giving him constant attention such as walks! Baba gets fed once a day with a healthy balance of veggies, fruits, seeds, and original food. I clean his cage every 1 to 2 weeks depending how it looks and/or if it stinks, and finally I regularly take him out of his cage to pet him and let him run around in his ball! George and Baba get along haha! Plus a new member being Chunk a little lab puppy!

About: I have been working in animal care for 4 years, I started specializing in doggy daycare, animal behavior, and bathing, trimming/dremmeling nails. In between daycare shifts I was in charge of feeding, administering medication, cleaning up waste, enrichments, handling and carrying dogs up to 250lbs. I’ve always had a strong connection to senior, rescues, reactive, or misunderstood animals. My greatest passion in life is to positively impact animals lives. It’s extremely important in my care to be empathetic; assessing all of their possible needs, and problem solving unwanted behaviors. I have worked all sizes and ages of animals including rescues/reactive/anxious pets, disabled animals(blind, deaf, dementia, etc). I am very diligent with my care and I’m willing to take on any challenge big or small! I’ve been pet sitting full time since the start of this year and it’s always been a positive experience for both me and my clients! I have full open availability! I have a cat I adore caring for, we even go on walks occasionally! I’m usually up early, and have a strict routine with my pets. I have an online art apprenticeship and will be working on art projects with any free time after caring for your pet. I have a very open schedule and I am open to any additional tasks as well! I’m open to multiple drop in visits or even walks before sittings as well! Trust is extremely important while caring for others animals. I am committed to keeping a safe environment and I am more than happy to discuss any additional needs or preferences to make your pets stay more comfortable. I have been thoroughly trained(and have handled) in dog fights, aggression, pestering behavior, and snapping. I am open to any breed any size, I have yet to meet a pet that has scared me. I am also able to provide baths/nail trims or dremmels/brushing/enrichment materials upon request. I am very flexible and am able to accommodate as needed! I’m extremely open to adjusting prices and making a personalized price that can fit your budget! I have also previously been a house cleaner(I offer cleaning services as well!)and I enjoy making your stay as seamless as possible, I’m extremely understanding with any change to your sitting!

“Rose was so kind. I’d forgotten to set up the door code for her and after failed attempts to reach me she went back later in the day once we connected. Thanks for going the extra mile.”
