Dog Sitting in New Hope

“Shannon has been so good to our doggies, 6 years old and 4 months old. She kept us updated with how they did and included pictures with each visit. She was responsible about resetting the security system each time she left. She’s thoughtful and pays attention to detail. We’d definitely recommend her!”

“Emmerson did a great job with my big Belgian Malinois puppy who can be a lot to handle! He was very tidy and consistently sent updates and was always available to talk to.”

“Sarah was wonderful stopping in each day to feed and play with my cat while I was out of town! I was gone for a week and he’s usually very needy when I get home, but she took such good care of him that he seemed to barely miss me! I will definitely be using Sarah to watch my cat again.”

About: I’ve always had such a strong love for animals both dogs, cats and more! I grew up with both cats and dogs in my family and have experience with animals of all ages including puppies & kittens and senior dogs and cats. I have experience in providing medicine, treatment, nail trimmings, and more to both cats and dogs in a gentle and careful way! I am very caring and will always make sure your animal is my #1 priority I currently work from home going in the office once a week so I have lots of flexibility to do drop in during lunch time, before or after work and weekends. Since I work from home I am always available at anytime in case of an emergency as well. I currently have two cats that I care for like they are my children (because they are!) both cats are rescues with very different personalities and comforts. Litter boxes are cleaned daily and deep cleaned weekly. They are fed half wet feed half dry food diet and fed portion sizes, not free fed. We have pet insurance so take them to the vet as we see fit - more than yearly! When I lived with my parents and their dog we would do daily walks/hikes and I also helped train him!

About: My pet sitting approach combines a lifetime of caring for animals and understanding their needs across their entire lifespan. I bring an intuitive connection with strength, patience, and diverse care experience, ensuring your pet feels safe, loved, and happy no matter the size or species of the lovable cutie. I am committed to making their time away from you as stress-free and enjoyable as possible! I'm currently looking to do pet care full time and am available for daytime, overnights and on short notice. I am centrally located near Minneapolis. At this time I am not set up to provide for pet care in my home. I am available to care for any pet in their home.

“Great sitter, I would trust Erin with my dog anytime. She’s a great communicator and takes great care of Winston :)”

“Mark really went above and beyond with our shy little corgi. He made sure she got attention and playtime. She was in such a good mood when we got back you wouldn't have known we were gone almost a week!”

About: Hi! My nick name is Kitty and I have owned and taken care of dogs my whole life. I have experience with almost every breed and size of dog. I have owned my own doggy daycare in the past. Also, I was a dog trainer for Petsmart for several years. I love every dog as though they were my own! I am VERY dependable and trustworthy with your dog. I am up early for breakfast then get ready for a morning walk. Then home for some play time and setting up a schedule for the day! I have a nice townhome with lots of walking trails and a dog park! I am home alot so your fur baby will never get lonely.

“Gabrielle was great with my cat, Juniper! She was communicative, was intentional with her time with him, and sent plenty of pictures. I felt confident that he was in good hands!”

About: Due to my emotional tenderness and playful spirit, I’ve always been able to build an instant connection with dogs of every age, size, and breed. I’ve helped care for the dogs of neighbors and family for many years and have had a dog of my own, Charlotte, for 4.5 years and my girlfriend and I recently adopted a sweetheart rescue named Sasha. I work in the Minneapolis Public Schools so while it is Summer I have a very open schedule. Once I return to work in late August, care I can provide is limited to evenings and weekends. I begin all relationships with dogs by trying to establish an emotional connection and getting to know them well, making sure in the moment that I am grounded, breathing deeply, and interacting from my fullest self. I also make sure that I am following the client’s best wishes, and care instructions since they know their pet best.

“Ciboney is so thoughtful and kind. We asked to schedule a drop in visit before our kitty’s extended stay and she was very accommodating- and so fun to meet! We ended up chatting over some tea. I absolutely trust her with my little one and recommend her :)”

About: I have been watching dogs for about 5 years now. I have experience with dogs up to 100 lbs and up to 2 dogs at a time. I am very physically active and will run, throw balls, etc. whatever it takes to tire your dog out and keep them happy! I will love, pet, and cuddle your dog when you're away so they don't feel lonely. I am confident that I can handle any dog and will ensure they eat and go to the bathroom regularly during my visits. I enjoy rewarding good behavior with pets, belly scratches and treats! If you choose me to take care of your special companion, he/she will be in good hands! My husband and I treat all of the dogs that stay with us like one of our own! -Diana

“Katy was fantastic. Prompt, very communicative, followed our instructions and actually did more than was asked. The regular photos and comments on how our dog and cat were handling our absence was great, and she was able to get our dog comfortable very quickly! Would recommend to friends, A+! Thank you so much, Katy!”

About: My family has owned multiple pets throughout my life- 4 dogs and 2 cats so I have experience with both. I have experience with some base training for puppies and working with older dogs and cats as well. I am currently working part time on the weekends, so I have plenty of availability during the week. Mondays are pretty open for me, Tuesday through Thursday i’m available 8 am - 5pm. However, Friday and Saturday I am available in the mornings from 8am to 1pm. I live in a house and have a backyard with room to take care of your pets. I also love to go on walks especially at ada hayden and different parks!

“Cayden was reliable and great with our cat. Will use him again!”

About: Ever since I was a kid, I've loved animals more than people. I grew up with a few family dogs, some cats, and a fish or two. I loved pet sitting so much I decided to join Rover! I enjoy the "getting to know you" process with pets, especially finding *that spot* for scratches. I have a healthy amount of experience administering medication to dogs, with anxious/reactive dogs, puppies, and more. I do a lot of research on training and enrichment activities for my own dog! I have plenty of evening and weekend availabilty in order to hang out with your fur babies. I can manage some early morning visits, if needed! I can take walks with your pup, play with your cat, and overall match the vibe of your fur baby to give them the best experience possible. I have plenty of doggy & kitty enrichment activities I've done with my own pets & others.

About: Ever since I was little I’ve always been told I’m like an “animal whisperer”. However, now that I’m older I’ve come to understand that it all comes down to the emotions of not only the dog but yourself as well. I’ve always felt comfortable around animals and that’s what makes them feel more comfortable around me! I have a dog and two cats of my own. My family and I switch off on animal care duties, however my room tends to be the designated spot for all the pets so I have to be sure to give them some love. I walk, bathe, train and relax with my own dog and anybody else’s that allows me too! However, my favorite activity to do with pets is snuggle.

“Briana was a great sitter for my cat while I was on vacation. Very communicative and sent lots of photos of every visit. Went above and beyond by keeping my place clean and making sure my cat was well taken care of. I definitely recommend her!”

Mindy W.

“Marla is wondering! She is amazing with our cats and cares about them. She responds to any questions I had in a timely way! She’s the best. I would highly recommend.”
