Pet Sitting in Owatonna

About: I have a passion for animals! I absolutely love them and they are my happy place! I've had animals since I was little from hamsters to cats to dogs! I got a husky over a year ago and very much understand the demands of a high energy pet. Good thing I'm high energy as well and would love to help you out! I work Monday - Friday either 6am - 2pm or 5am - 1pm. I always take pups out to potty and feed before I leave and we have plenty of afternoon for play 😊 I would love to spend time with other dogs and get them social with my dog as well! I can take them for walks or take them down to the dog park and let them run off that weekday energy! (If you prefer the dog park typically there isn't anyone there from 1pm-3pm so if your pup isn't okay with other dogs that would be the time to go. Also, there is 2 different sections so if it were to be a problem I would take your dog to the other side or just leave and take them for a walk on the nearby trail) I typically like the Morehouse Park trail and walk it all the way down to Kaplans woods and back. About a 2 mile walk altogether (typically about an hour depending how many stops and sniffs we do) I also like the trail off of 26th street on the north side of town. Both trails have lots of shade and water spots to keep your pup hydrated and cool. But I can also just walk your neighborhood if that is preferred. If you would like to board your fur baby with me I do live in a nice home in a quiet cul de sac. I have an extra kennel for your convenience. I also have children so fur babies must love kids and my kids will love on them too 😊 Don't hesitate to message me for any questions or concerns! Our household loves animals and we always love to watch your fur baby. All the money I get from Rover always goes back to the animals. As of right now I do not have a fenced in backyard. But with the earnings I get on Rover I hope to get enough to get a fence so the pups can enjoy more outdoor play at home. :) Your dogs safety is my priority and I follow exactly what you tell me you are and are not comfortable with. I also have a Husky with lots of energy so I understand your dog's needs. I am also CPR certified. I love taking pictures on what I like to call "Adventures" during our walks so you will always get lots of photos of your pup having the best of times on our adventures together. 💖 I have a spacious clean home for your pet to enjoy. :) I allow pups on the furniture and sleep in the bed with my husband and I. Unless told other wise they'll have all the snuggles at night and couch belly scratches.

“Allison loves dogs and is a caring person. She does a tremendous job looking after any dog that she is in charge of. Allison has looked after multiple different dogs and every owner has raved about the care their animals have received. Allison treats all fur “children” just like they are a member of her family.”

“Taylor always provides excellent care for our dog!!!”

“She’s patient and caring. Huge heart and love for animals. Dependable. Committed to her job. Professional and fun. Responsible. Easy to work with. Animal lover.”

“Angela had been a consistent and sweet caregiver to my kitty girls, Mitsy and Bella. They are happy and content when I get home from any trip, after Angela cares for them. She knows and love cats and is conscientious and loving.”

“Annie was fantastic! We will use her again! The communication & pictures she sent made our trip away from our pet so much easier! Thanks for taking such great care of our Gracie!”

“Riley has taken care of our high energy English Springer Spaniel and has done a great job. She took care of him for 9 days, including daily walks, and when we returned home he was more interested in her than in us. She is super responsible, loves cats and dogs and will do a wonderful job for you when you hire her. She is very flexible in her daily work and will treat your pet with the same (more likely much more) love and affection that you have for it. Riley is totally trustworthy and extremely diligent in following what directions you leave her for your pet. We highly recommend Riley and we will continue to use her for our pet as long as we have him.”

“Carolee took great care of our cat while we were gone for a week! She was great with communication and was predictable which put my mind at ease while we were so far from home! 100% will have her back!”

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 10. I have took take of Friends, family, neighbors dogs ect. I own a couple of dogs myself. I work only a part time job so plenty available time to watch/ play with the dogs. I try to take my dogs out a lot too! My best friend (my dog toby) we spend a lot of time cuddling going on walks and some times even going to the dog park

“Lilly Zollner is a great animal lover. She takes great care and concern for all animals and alway has. Her first pet care including caring for hamsters. Her 4-H experience gave her experience with larger animals, such as cows. She is currently training for vet tech, has three years of university education, and is learning even more daily about proper animal care. She will take great care in caring for your animals.”

“David went above and beyond my expectations watching our old timer. I would recommend him to anyone who is looking for a responsible sitter. I appreciate the extra time he spend with our beloved pet. He is very responsive and even checked on the house to make sure our refrigerator was close as we left in a rush. A+ sitter and will use again.”

“Mallory was by far the most responsible attentive & kind Cat sitter for our 2 cats while we were gone a week.. they were so happy, healthy and calm when we arrived back!”

About: I have been taking care of animals sense I was a kid always walking, the neighbours dog. I am experience in caretaking as I am a part time cna. Growing up we always had big dogs. I currently have one cat in the future will be adding to the family but right now he is plenty. I am currently working part-time and in my second semester of college looking for some weekend hours as my job doesn’t require me to work weekends. I will give your furry babies many belly rubs and always ensure a safe environment for them. I am responsible and trustworthy. I am willing to adapt to you pets needs.

“Jessica was great! Would definitely have her back again”

About: I’ve lived with dogs my whole life. I now have my own pitbull and live with 2 other dogs as well :) My pets are my world and I would love to take care of yours! I’m currently working part time with weekends and evenings off. I am flexible and able to care for your pet when I am not at my job! I follow the directions given to me by the owners in order to keep myself and others safe. I will make sure your dog gets everything they need!

“Shay was very communicative and took excellent care of our cat while we were away! I liked receiving pictures of him while we were gone.”

“I strongly believe Morgan would be a great selection for a dog caregiver and walker no doubt or question about it! I am the owner of a 2 and a half-year-old full sized German shepherd Siberian husky mix who likes to go on single or multiple daily walks long or short and Morgan was their to fulfill his walking needs fully on multiple occasions while I work 8 consecutive hour shifts during the day. Morgan understands me and my pets needs and on numerous occasions has went above and beyond the call for a dog sitter; for example she follows my diet plan for my pet and feeds him the proper amount at the set scheduled time and ensures his water bowl is clean and fresh if it's been sitting for a couple of hours, if he is outside on the tie out taking his time she keeps an eye on him and remains with him until he is ready to go inside. My dog is a husky and likes to bolt time to time if he is not kept on a leash and she has ensured he is remaining on a leash every time he is taken out for a walk or to use the bathroom. Morgan is very caring for my dog and she treats him with care like her own and even one day had desheded him with extra care and gentleness and had gotten a lot of fur out of his coat after a well-needed deshedding session. She is also does a great job walking my dog I walk at a slow pace and it causes my dog to be anxious and pull during the walks so it causes arm and shoulder pain for me when Morgan walks him she walks at a faster pace than me and my dog doesn't pull at all and remains at her side she also understands my dog's preference to walking with a walking harness over a collar. So I really do believe Morgan is a great and responsible pick for a loving pet caregiver and dog walker.”
