“Xinia has been a blessing in my life! Bingo is so lucky to have an amazing walker that goes out of her way to ensure my bingo is well taken care of and most importantly she makes sure my bingo is loved! Xinia has been very patient with my bingo as it takes her time to trust new people, but Xinia has done and outstanding job being patient & caring towards her. I would recommend her to anybody that’s looking for a a sitter, or a walker! 12/10 from me!”

“Drew thank you for coming on kinda short notice and taking Winston out for a walk he definitely needed it. He took to you from the start. I’m glad I met you and Winston just made a new friend!!”
“Robert was great to work with. He and Waffle got along really well. Robert took the time to do a meet and greet and visit before the first walk, even on a short notice. Robert has been flexible and accommodating with his schedule to meet our needs. After the walk, he sent us detailed comments and photos of their walk. I plan on continuing to work with him on an ongoing basis. I feel like Waffle is in good hands!”
About: Hello! My name is Rae! I’m originally from Florida, but I enjoy Minnesota’s seasons much more. Most of my experience is from volunteering for independent rescues. I have also volunteered at a veterinary clinic. As a kid, I would often pet-sit my neighbors' furry friends, both cats and dogs. My most popular clients were two Italian Greyhounds. I have grown up with pets most of my life and currently have two pets of my own. I currently own a special needs senior cat, which has made me experienced with giving medication and even administering IV fluids. Thanks for considering me for your pet's care! I currently work from home and spend time with my senior special needs cat, Sierra. I love animals, and it's exciting to make new furry friends! Currently, my schedule is open and flexible. If my details don't match exactly what you are looking fo,r please feel free to message me. I am happy to try to make something work. Since I rent an apartment, I will only care for your pet at your home. I need to be made aware if I'm being videotaped. Typically, the owner informs me of the feeding/bathroom schedule for their pets. I like to know the personality of the pets, so I set up meet and greets when possible. I like to know what the pet likes and dislikes, and how you, the owner, would like to be updated while you are away. I work best with clear written expectations. I have a smartphone so I can send video/photo updates!
“Another successful rock with Ashley. She is the best, loves animals and appears very knowledgeable about dogs and cats. Have you used her numerous times and will continue to use her as needed”
About: Grew up with dogs since I was 5, walking, feeding, playing you name it I did it! I’ve had both big and small dogs and them all! I am a student with a flexible, College schedule so my availability is pretty open! I can stop by in between errands, or hang out for as long as I’m welcome! Over nights or just a drop in, whatever is needed I’ll make it work! Dogs: I have and will walk them bring them to a dog park, brush them, feeding (including dietary needs), bring them to vets or grooming! Cats: Brushing, feeding (including dietary needs), cat napping, playing, and will bring them to grooming or vets if needed!
About: I've taken care of animals almost all my life I had a dog my whole childhood. I worked at a doggydaycare for 5 years and a pet hospital for 2. I have some training experience but I'm not a professional (yet) Uh, im always thinking about dogs! I work partime. Im available for walks in the mornings, during the week and the weekend, No stress schedule as I am curently located in the middle of St Paul, and I have transportation if needed. I'll make sure to care for your pet as if they were my own. I'm by the book and anything I don't know im willing to learn.
“Danielle was amazing! Our first time using the app and only just moved here recently. She was very accommodating and took the time to meet us before hand and was so good with Cara we will definitely ask her again if we need to!”
About: I grew up with a dog and multiple cats in the house as a child, and I’ve had my own cat since I was in college (she was a tiny kitten). She’s feisty, and needs lots of love, but always on her own terms. Living with her taught me how to read pet body language and understand that every animal has their own personality and needs. I’m also the go to sitter for my siblings' pets: a high energy border collie who loves adventures, and a rescue Jindo/Shiba mix from South Korea who needs a gentler touch, and a kitty who needs meds on a specific schedule. I treat them like they’re my own, taking them for hikes, field trips, fetch, or just some quiet company. I loved teaching them tricks and helping with their training when they were puppies, so if you’re working on anything specific, let me know and I’d be happy to keep up the training while you’re away! Above all, I care deeply about making your pets feel safe, happy, and loved. I work full time, but have long lunch breaks and can watch your pets before or after work. My weekends are so free, and I have the option to work from home if you need more frequent visits. I live in northeast Minneapolis and work near Mahtomedi, so there are lots of locations that I’d be able to cover during the day! I prefer to care for pets in your home, but I'm happy to take them out on walks, to parks, or just play in your yard if that’s what they like best. I typically don't do overnight stays, but will make sure your pets are well cared for before tucking them into bed!
“Skyler has been great with our baby, Izzy! She went above and beyond by giving us important updates, sitting and playing with Izzy, and keeping close to the schedule we provided for Izzy’s walks for the entire week! Izzy was excited to see Skyler every day and we will definitely book her again soon!”
About: My kids, dogs, and I enjoy caring for dogs. We've cared for friends' dogs for years, and now that we have our own, we very much value home based services for dogs while their owners are away! We have weekends available to board and entertain dogs and certain weeknights or afternoons for walks in the the neighborhood. Our puppy loves to play and enjoys the company of other dogs. I have a fenced yard and two mini goldendoodles. We enjoy long walks. We are home a lot and can offer a lot of breaks.
About: I have lived with and taken care of cats and dogs for my entire life! Right now, I have a furry-daughter named Bijou. Anytime my friends and family need pet sitters, I am the first person they reach out to! I am a full-time college student, in my 4th and final year of my undergrad. I have free time on the weekends and would love to fill that time hanging out with new furry friends! I will always be sure to ask you a lot of questions about your house and your routine with your pet(s) so that I can follow your routine while pet-sitting to ensure that your pet(s) remain safe and feel that they can trust me in a familiar environment.
About: I have experience with small to extra large dogs including senior dog care. Friends and family have relied on me for pet sitting. I have the most experience with extra large breeds as I previously had a Newfie until he passed due to cancer. I work from home and currently have no pets or children in the house so its a quiet environment but we can engage in lots of fun activities to keep your furry friend active. I currently work remotely and am available and flexible for a variety of hours during the day or evening. Weekends are also available and flexible. I have a fully fenced yard. I also have an extra large crate available if needed. I also have plenty of toys and an extra dog bed if needed. I live near a lake for walks or swimming if your dog likes.
