House Sitting in New Richland

“Lynn was fantastic! She was extremely friendly, on time, and her communication skills were on point. She made sure to ask all the right questions before hand so Queenie’s needs were met. She sent photos and videos throughout the day. Definitely rebooking anytime we need someone to sit Queenie again!”

“Lynn was AMAZING! She took care of my pups for a lengthy trip and I came home to two extremely happy puppies. She kept me updated throughout my time away, sent lots of photos, and took them on lots of walks. I booked her pretty last minute and she made sure the meet and greet process was swift and easy!”

About: Newly single dad of two and one Rottweiler (they all live with mom). Looking for extra income and I’ve been a dog sitter/house sitter for over 15 years in the Twin Cities. I work full time as a church musician so my schedule is extremely flexible. My flexible working schedule can accommodate your pup’s needs. I’m used to multiple walks and feedings during the day. I love spoiling our furry friends and will give them a ton of attention. My neighborhood is near some incredible walking trails and is very quiet in terms of traffic or people being out and about. Fenced in yard. Doggos love it here.

“Bobbie was great! We were so nervous, but she sent us photos of the dogs every visit and even did extra activities with them like reading to them and an art project! One dog had some inflammation while we were gone and she was great about the sudden change of having to administer medication and give that pup extra exercise. We will definitely use her again!”

About: Ive take care of Dogs since i was roughly 5. Also have trained dogs since i was 6, and worked at a Kennel. My first dog i trained was trained in agility My 2nd dog, i trained as my service dog, sport dog whom competes in , AKC rally, dock diving and rally. Often times, i go to work and come home to hang out with my animals, and do things directly with them, my life revolves around there needs. I do have a unfenced yard, but all my dogs that i have are tethered and have never gotten away. All my dogs are friendly except Millie. She stays separate from any dog that enters my home and is crate rotated.

About: I’ve taken care of my own dogs my whole life. I’ve had pretty chill dogs, rough dogs, and dogs that run away any chance they get. I’m prepared for any dog that I can take care of. I currently don’t have another job at the moment but I might work another job pretty soon. I work out and have football practice. Other than that I’m free to take care of dogs. I feed my dogs and let them out whenever they need to be let out. If they need specific things such as to be kenneled or anything of that nature I can easily do. I can also keep company with the dogs and play with them.

About: I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life and they have always been a part of the family. Dogs bring out the best in people. I am a freelance photographer so my schedule is flexible. I spend a lot of time on my feet and outside. But I will always bring a pup along We have a big house and a big yard. We also live near a beautiful walking arb. There is lots of room to stay very active!

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my hands-on experience with both young and senior pets, including those with medical needs. I’ve cared for my parents’ dog after a major surgery, which involved giving medications, monitoring recovery, and making sure he stayed calm and comfortable. I’ve also watched my aunt’s senior dog and her kittens, so I understand the different care routines, energy levels, and attention each age group needs. I’m very patient, responsible, and always make sure pets feel safe and loved in my care. I work full time from 6 a.m. to 3 p.m., which gives me plenty of availability in the afternoons, evenings, and on weekends for pet care. I’m very organized and plan my schedule around the needs of the pets I’m caring for. Whether it’s evening visits, feeding, litter box cleaning, or just spending quality time with them, I always make sure they get the attention they need. In my home, I make sure pets have a safe, calm, and clean environment where they can feel comfortable and relaxed. I follow their usual routines as closely as possible—feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any medications they may need. I also make sure they have quiet spaces to rest and lots of attention and love throughout the day. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat it with the same respect I would my own. I stick closely to their normal routine to help reduce stress, keep everything tidy, and make sure the pets feel secure in their own space. I give regular updates so owners know how their pets are doing and can feel at ease while they’re away.

About: I've loved & had pets my entire life. As a kid, I'd bring home hurt or lost animals hoping my mom & dad would let me keep them. They did sometimes :) I'm making pet sitting my new full time career! I'll gladly love & keep your fur babies comfy at home while you're away. Now go enjoy yourself/selves! In your home I will follow your pets normal routine. We will behave. We promise. I will try to do my best to fill your shoes while you're away. Just let me know what your pets/s need.

About: I've been described as a "natural" and a "dog whisperer" in shelter environments. I pursue continuous education in towards dogs knowing their might be better methodology. With my current dog we are working towards her Canine Good Citizen Title. Personally I'm working towards an independent Dog Training/Behaviorist certification which will require 200 hours of training experience of dogs that aren't mine over the next 3 years. I've always lived in a single dog home, but looking forward to when I might be able to have a multiple dog home. I'm available on weeknights for in home-training, drop-ins, or walks. I hope to enrich your dogs life by being an extension or substitute to your routine or working with you to develop one. Dog care starts with integrity. You must genuinely want a positive experience for yourself and the dog. I start by assessing their comfort level with me as a person, their general aversion to body handling, movement speed, and sensitivity to verbal interrupters or no reward markers. High rate of praise and treats are a much more efficient and effective tool than alternatives and don't jeopardize the human animal bond.
