About: I have had a genuine love of animals since a young age. During high school I was employed at a local animal boarding/doggie daycare. I have also been relied upon by friends and family to care for their dogs on an ongoing basis. I truly enjoy caring for pets and showing them love while their families are away. I currently don’t have a job. Im pretty open all summer but will be continuing school this fall in St. Cloud as a pre-vet major but can work around my school schedule. I prefer to take care of your dogs in their own home, this will ease any stress for your pets as well as your family. i will take excellent care of your furry family , and always respect your rules and your household.

About: Ever since I can remember I have adored animals. I have always been the person who would go over to a friend's house and end up sitting by their pet the whole time! When I became old enough, I started volunteering at my local animal shelter and pet sitting as much as I could. At the shelter, I walked dogs, spent time playing with cats and kittens, and helped clean kennels and cages. I have a senior dog and senior cat that I have had their whole lives so I have extensive experience raising and training pets, as well as experience with senior animals. I also have a rabbit so am familiar with different kinds of pet care as well! I am currently unemployed, though I do have potential offers in the works, so for now I have full availability! I will update my availability as it changes. Due to having 2 senior pets that hate all other pets but each other, I am unable to offer boarding at this time. However, I will provide any sort of care necessary for your pets in your homes! I am very good at following directions if you have a list for me, but I am also good at just knowing what goes into caring for pets, such as watching for potty cues and noticing when they need mental or physical stimulation.

About: I am well-equipped to care for dogs with unique needs, such as anxiety, special diets, and daily medication. Senior dogs in need of special care. I currently have availability Monday-Sunday. I currently work for a salon as an esthetician part time but I am pretty flexible for the most part. My services include playtime, walks, and complimentary treats for your dogs. Medication administration if needed, Exercise is essential in my care for younger aged dogs, as well as dogs that require special diets.

About: I have 4 amazing dogs. A senior rat terrier and 3 husky lab mixes raging between the ages of 0-2 years old. I have house trained the 4 of them and they have been taught basic obedience. My senior dog is leash trained, and I’m working with my other dogs on leash training as well. I dog sit for friends and family often over the weekends and whenever they go on holiday. Normally I try to let my dog outside every 2-3 hours for a potty break or when they indicate they need it. My dogs are a huge part of my life and valued family members. I love spending time with dogs and helping them burn off energy and helping them get exercise. Any dog big or small is welcome, and will be treated with the same love and respect as they would be with their family. I am available after 5pm Monday-Friday and more flexible on Saturday and Sunday. Reach out and we can work something out to fit your schedule! I live on a farm off of main roads. I have a big yard with plenty of room to run. Dogs are NEVER left unsupervised outside and I always keep a close eye on them. I have plenty of room if your fur baby is crate trained. If your dog prefers being alone there’s plenty of room in the house to have their own space. My 2 younger are very playful and love having playmates and company. Dogs are always welcome on furniture, my home is their home and I want them to feel at ease!

Our animals are part of our family. We hope to meet a few nice families that want their pets to get some extra attention in evenings or weekends.

About: A dog's smile is one of the purest joys in this world, so my goal is to leave a big ol' grin on the face of every pup I'm with. I always like to create fun wherever I go, your pup is sure to receive the best care and have a great time. I have been around dogs all my life and have 1 adorable Lab mix, myself...nothing like coming home to a happy pup! Some dogs need consistency, and with my flexible schedule, I can help put your mind at rest knowing they'll get exactly what they need, when they need it. I also enjoy long walks on the beach - especially if accompanied by a four-legged friend. An active pup is a happy pup!
