I work very hard to make sure your dog(s) have the proper care and proper affection needed ! i am the biggest animal lover, and have grew up with dogs all my life. I hope your animal will love me too :)! i always try to care for any pets near me! whenever i’m at a friends or family i will always tend to their pets needs wether it’s dinner time or play time! I always try to make time for pets. I do have another job but I’m trying to lean more towards rover for my love of animals! I usually take the dogs on walks whenever i can and whenever i see they need their energy out, I always feed them on time and have no issue needing to put dogs in crates if needed. I always love playing with dogs and seeing their cute little tail wags, my favorite thing to do is to take funny/cute pics of pets!

“Brianna has been doing drop in/walk visits with Parker. She’s fantastic with him, so clearly a dog lover!!! I couldn’t have asked for a better person to take care of him, and I would highly recommend her!!”

“I had a wonderful experience with Kiana! She took excellent care of my cats and made sure they were happy, comfortable, and well looked after while I was away. I received regular updates and photos, which gave me great peace of mind. It was clear they genuinely cared about my pets and paid attention to their individual needs. I came home to happy, relaxed cats and everything was clean and in great shape. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy pet sitter. Thank you for taking such great care of my furry family!”

“Gavin took great care of our dog, Luna, and my brother’s dog, Ike, over the holiday weekend. He was reliable, communicative, and kept us updated with photos, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. We came home to two happy, well-cared-for pups and would gladly book with Gavin again. Highly recommend! 🐾”

About: I love dogs and have had a dog most of my life, growing up and as an adult! I grew up with a smaller dog (Shit Zhu). Currently we have one female Labradoodle; we lost our 15 y.o lab mix in fall of 2025 so Daisy loves having friends to come over to stay! We are an active family and spend a lot of time outside. I have 2 teenage kids age 15 and 17. They are also dog lovers and are very helpful with pet care. If needed, the kids can give your pet space too. I have good awareness of pet behaviors, can read your dog’s comfort level and can provide space as needed. We would love to host your dog at a nurturing and calm environment with plenty of walks! I currently work full time daytime hours in healthcare. I have 2 kids who are around before and after school most days to visit with dogs and let them out. I own a home with a tie out for bathroom breaks. Dogs will also get regular walks and playtime in the home with my 2 friendly dogs and my active family! I only take one Rover guest at a time but if you have 2 dogs in your family that both need care, please ask. Exceptions may be made.

About: I’ve always been an animal lover and have always had a soft spot for all furry friends. I know every pet has their own personality, routine, and favorite way to spend the day, so I always take the time to get to know what makes them happiest and the most comfortable while away from their best friend! Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cozy naps, or just having someone nearby, I’m happy to match their energy and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I’ll treat your furry family member like they’re my own and make sure they get plenty of love, attention, and care. I’m reliable, easy to communicate with, and I love taking pictures of these adorable, quirky, animals! My favorite thing growing up was to see picture updates of my dog while on vacation, so I will always do the same for my clients! Pet care fits naturally into my routine! I am working full time, but have a flexible schedule that allows me to plan my day around the pets I’m caring for, whether that means morning walks, midday potty breaks, playtime, feedings, or evening cuddles. I enjoy getting outside, staying active, and spending time with animals, so caring for pets is something I genuinely look forward to. My goal is to keep your pet’s routine as consistent as possible so they feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. No matter where I’m caring for your pet, my goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I always take the time to learn their routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and any special preferences or instructions. In a client’s home, I treat both their pet and their home with the same respect and care I would my own. I’ll keep your pet company, make sure they get plenty of exercise, attention, and affection, and leave your home just as I found it. If I’m caring for a pet in my own home, I’ll provide a clean, safe, and welcoming environment where they can relax, play, and feel right at home. I’ll also send regular photo updates so you can see how much fun your furry friend is having while you’re away!

About: I bring a strong foundation of trust, safety, and attentiveness from my background in law enforcement, along with hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I’m comfortable with everything from high-energy, working breeds that require structure and engagement, to puppies needing patience and consistency, as well as older dogs who benefit from a calmer, attentive approach. I have experience with basic obedience reinforcement, leash handling, and reading canine behavior to ensure safe, positive interactions at all times. I’m also knowledgeable in pet safety and emergency awareness, with training that supports quick, calm decision-making if needed. As someone who prioritizes physical health and an active lifestyle, I enjoy providing dogs with the exercise, stimulation, and attention they need to stay happy and well-balanced. Whether your dog needs structured walks, playtime, or just reliable, loving care while you’re away, I’m confident and comfortable handling it all. I currently work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to dedicate plenty of time to pet care throughout the day. I’m typically available from the early morning through the evening, with the most flexibility during daytime hours. Because my schedule is adaptable, I’m able to work around each pet’s individual routine—whether that means an early-morning walk, a midday check-in, feeding, playtime, or evening care. I’m open to adjusting my availability when needed and working with owners to find a schedule that best fits their pets’ needs. My goal is to make pet care feel consistent, reliable, and stress-free for both you and your pet while you’re away. As a former law enforcement officer, safety, responsibility, and trust have always been at the heart of what I do. I understand how important it is to feel completely comfortable leaving both your pet and your home in someone else’s care—and I don’t take that responsibility lightly. When caring for your pet, I treat your home with the same respect and attention to detail I would expect in my own. I’m mindful of doors, gates, alarms, keys, access points, and anything else that helps keep your home secure while you’re away. I’m also attentive to your pet’s surroundings and routines to help prevent accidents, escapes, or anything that could put them at risk. Most importantly, I want your pet to feel safe, loved, and comfortable in my care. I take the time to understand their personality, routines, needs, and boundaries rather than treating every pet the same. Whether your dog is energetic and playful, needs extra patience, is shy around new people, or simply wants some companionship, I’m happy to meet them where they are. You can have peace of mind knowing that your pet is receiving attentive, dependable care—and that your home is being treated with the same level of respect and responsibility. I’m also happy to provide updates, photos, and communication throughout the visit so you never have to wonder how things are going. My goal is for you to feel confident and reassured from the moment you hand over the leash to the moment you walk back through your door.

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was about 8 or 9, mostly family dogs to start. I have also house sat for not only family dogs but friends as well. I work at a doggie daycare facility currently, so I am familiar with dog behaviors and care. I currently work full-time in evenings, so that gives plenty of morning time for walks and cuddles. I am available for both boarding and daily care most of my week and always try to be flexible with clients. I love to have animals be as comfortable as they can be in their owners home, whatever that might look like. My goal is to make the clients and dogs as comfortable as possibly while building trust and good relationship.

About: I’ve had all sorts of animals in my life and always have enjoyed the love and care an animal is able to give us! My dad and I had an amazing black lab, Willie, while I was growing up. When Willie got older, I helped with some of his senior care such as changing his diapers. My dad and I also had two guinea pigs while I was in high school, they were so fun and I loved how much personality they had. My mom was in the Southern area of the states for about a year, and ended up coming back to Minnesota with two cats and moved in with me! I partner with my mom for their every-day care (feeding, cleaning litter box, cutting nails) often. I have also cat-sat for my friend, whose kitty had just gotten several teeth removed - so she needed some oral medications while I was caring for her. This included pill and syringe medications. As for pets that are solely my own, I have a 5-year-old horse named Atlas that I purchased after graduating from college. He has been such an amazing learning experience and I appreciate our partnership so much. I currently work full-time, and have a bit of a varying schedule day-to-day but am often out of the house for 8+ hours a day. For this reason I’m unsure if house-sitting dogs would be a great fit for my weekday schedule unless they were close by to my work, where I could stop by during my lunch and give them a potty break. Otherwise could totally do weekends! My work schedule typically hasn’t been obstructive to cat care, unless the cat is fed in small portions more than twice a day. Then, I may need to stop in during my lunch break - or find another way to split their feedings appropriately. I strive to care for any pet just as their owner would. I do know some animals are wary of strangers and I will respect your pet’s boundaries - so if they seem shy or nervous about me, I will absolutely give them space. If an animal is social and excited, I am more than happy to give pets, cuddle, and play! Additionally, more than happy to clean up any litter boxes (cats) or outside excrement (dogs).

“Came home to a happy healthy cat. Holly went above and beyond!”

About: I’ve owned and cared for dogs for many years and understand the importance of patience, consistency, and attention. My experience includes feeding, walking, playtime, basic grooming, and making sure dogs feel safe and comfortable. Friends and family have trusted me to care for their pets, and I treat every dog like part of the family. I will follow your pet’s routine carefully and provide updates while you’re away. I’m currently a college student and also provide pet care through MJ Critter Sitter. I’m responsible, dependable, and organized with my schedule, and I communicate in advance to make sure I can provide consistent and attentive care for every pet. I prioritize your pet’s safety, comfort, and individual routine. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions and make sure pets are supervised and cared for responsibly. I’m respectful of your home and always communicate if I have any questions or concerns.

About: I've cared for dogs and cats for over 20 years and understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. I pride myself on being reliable, patient, and attentive, and I'll treat your dog with the same kindness and care I'd want for my own pet. Whether your dog loves a brisk walk, a slower pace, or extra encouragement, I'm happy to tailor each visit to help them feel safe, comfortable, and happy. I'll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you always know how your best friend is doing. Pet care is something I truly enjoy, so I've chosen to dedicate my weekends to it. By limiting my availability to weekends, I can give each dog my full attention and provide dependable, unhurried care. I only accept bookings I know I can commit to, so every walk is reliable, personalized, and never rushed. When caring for your dog, I'll always follow your routine and preferences. Whether that means using a specific leash or harness, reinforcing good walking habits, or taking a favorite route, I'll make sure your dog feels comfortable and cared for. I'll treat your home with the same respect I would my own, making sure doors are secure, water bowls are refreshed if needed, and your pet is settled before I leave. After each visit, I'll send an update with photos so you know exactly how your dog's walk went.

About: I am a big time animal lover that has taken care of dogs, cats and rabbits for over 8 years. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to check in with, feed and play with their animals. I’m currently working 4 10 hour days with Thursdays and weekends off. I would be able to hang out with or stop in with your pets in the morning and evening Monday-Wed and Friday or anytime Thursday or Saturday-Sunday I can stop by or stay over and do whatever is needed to take care of the pets in my clients’ home including crating, feeding, letting outside and more!

About: I’ve been caring for pets my whole life. I started pet sitting for friends, family, and neighbors at around age 11 for both cats and dogs, including walking, playing, basic care, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable! I’m currently a senior in high school, so I’m available after school on weekdays. I’m typically free after 3:30 PM. I have open availability on weekends and holidays, which makes me flexible for longer stays and last minute requests. I care for pets in their own home so they can stay comfortable in a familiar environment. I follow all instructions clearly and carefully while making safety a priority. I’m very respectful of clients’ homes and would also be happy to send updates.

About: Hello! We would love to welcome some new dogs into our home either for short trips or longer stays. Our family has a 4 year old golden doodle who loves to play with other dogs. We are an active homeschooling family and my husband works from home as well so someone is home a majority of the day! The kids are often playing in our large fenced in backyard and love to throw balls, run around with or just snuggle with dogs! We love to get out for walks and spend a lot of time on the couch reading so there are ample amounts of time we can spend loving on your fur-babies! Please reach out if you have any questions or would like to see if our family would be a good fit. We want to be a place where you can feel comfortable leaving your dogs while you are away! For the safety of my family, my dog, and your dog we require all pets to have a meet and greet before booking. This will allow us to make sure that we are a good fit for each other and that I can provide all the care your pet needs while also keeping my family safe. As a homeschooling family and work-from-home dad someone is usually home during the day. We can work with the families to make sure that we can provide all the love and care that your dog needs and desires! We have a fenced in backyard and a sweet medium sized goldendoodle to keep your dogs happy and well exercised! As each dog is different we are happy to work with families to make your dogs stay away from home as comfortable as possible!

About: I have had a pet since I was born! Family dogs, cats, rabbits, hamsters, etc. As an adult I’ve had 3 dogs of my own - hopefully a cat soon. I work from home full time M-F. I have the flexibility to care for my own dogs + other pets as long as I have wifi 😀 Dog park!!! My pups love to go on walks and interact with new dogs. I enjoy being active with other pets but also taking in all the snuggles I can.

“I had a last-minute need and Ashley was happy to help. She is so patient with Max, and he loves his time with her. Ashley truly sees the jewel in each dog. We're blessed to have found her!”
