I have a horse (not on the property) and have had a variety of pets over the years including rabbits, guinea pigs, cats, chickens and sheep. I have a passion for animals and take pride in providing them with the best care possible. I can’t wait to meet your furry family members!

About: I’m an animal lover with 3 amazing dogs of my own. I’ve had dogs for 14 years and they’ve spent the whole time spoiled, and I’d love to do the same for yours! I have 10 acres of farmland and a large home with lots of space for your pet to roam and have fun and play! Your pet will be well cared for and loved, played with and treated as one of the family! I love all different breeds and sizes of dogs, so no matter what dog you have big or small they’ll be welcome with us! I’ve been around dogs of all sizes before, so I know how to cuddle the little ones and handle the big guys! I’m also an approved foster for a local rescue, so I’m used to having all kinds of furry friends coming in and out of my home. I have experience with shy animals and know how to help a scared pup settle in and feel safe. I hope you’ll trust me to care for your special furry friend! My husband and I work only a few days a week on opposite schedules, so we’re almost always available to be home playing and snuggling our furry friends! We love dogs, so it’s a priority in our days to spend time with them. I’m very comfortable caring for dogs on their level. I’ve worked with extremely under socialized animals, and also dogs that need to be kept separated from other animals, so I have the space to make sure every dog is comfortable during their stay.

About: Hello! My name is Siona, and growing up in the Caribbean around animals has given me years of hands on experience caring for pets of different sizes, ages, and temperaments. In addition to personal pet care experience, I worked as a veterinary assistant, where I gained experience handling animals, observing behavior, and supporting their daily needs. I am patient, reliable, and attentive to each pet’s unique personality and routine. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or simply providing companionship, I strive to make every pet feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for. I am also fluent in four languages: English, Spanish, Dutch, and Papiamentu. This allows me to communicate effectively with a diverse range of pet owners and provide a welcoming experience for both pets and their families. As a university student with a flexible schedule, I am able to provide reliable pet care throughout the week. My classes and part-time work allow me to plan ahead and dedicate quality time to each pet’s needs. Whether your pet needs feeding, walks, playtime, medication reminders, or companionship, I am committed to maintaining their routine and ensuring they receive attentive care while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. As a former veterinary assistant, I have experience handling animals, recognizing signs of stress or discomfort, and providing care in a calm and patient manner. I follow all owner instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, exercise routines, and any special care requirements. Whether caring for pets in your home or during visits, I strive to create a safe, clean, and low stress environment where pets feel comfortable, secure, and loved.

About: ​I have been surrounded by dogs and cats my entire life, learning from a young age exactly what it takes to keep pets happy, safe, and comfortable. Whether your fur baby needs a high-energy walk, a strict feeding schedule followed, or just some dedicated cuddle time, I treat every animal as if they were my own. I'm incredibly attentive to their body language and daily routines to ensure they feel right at home. Im currently working a part time job at the hospital so I have plenty of time for your furry friends!! Im available at any time!! I live in an apartment with two of my own fur babies. I have a huge yard out front and back and live in a nice community area good for walking dogs. My apartment is very spacious for any animals coming over and my cats are very friendly and adapted to all types of animals.

About: Hi! My name is Rachel, and I’m based in the Saint Cloud area while attending the College of Saint Benedict. Caring for animals has always been a big part of my life. I have a sweet 1-year-old Maltese mix puppy named Crunch, and before him, I had another Maltese who was a beloved part of my family for nearly 12 years. I’m currently on a pre-vet track with the goal of attending veterinary school in the future. Over the years, friends and family have trusted me to care for their pets—whether it’s daily walks, feeding routines, playtime, or just keeping them company while they're away. I also volunteer at the local humane society, where I’ve gained valuable experience with dog walking and general animal care. On top of that, I’ve had the incredible opportunity to do veterinary work abroad, further strengthening my skills and passion for animal health and well-being. I have plenty of free time during the summer, which allows me to offer flexible and consistent care throughout the week—whether it’s walks, drop-ins, or overnight stays. During the school year, I’m still available most evenings and weekends for pet care. In a client’s home, I aim to keep your pet’s routine as normal as possible. I’ll make sure they get plenty of attention, regular walks, fresh water, and lots of play or cuddle time, depending on their needs and personality. I also take the time to follow any specific routines or instructions you provide.

“Amazing! Loved my dog like she was her own! Took her on long walks and provided excellent care.”

About: When I was little I used to rescue dogs from the street and take them home to bathe them and feed them. My mom helped me find them a house or sometimes we stayed with them. I know the importance and respect they deserve. I work and take care of my house, currently I don't have any time to invest in anything other than that. That's why I'm currently quitting my job to try something more different. I will only walk dogs, I live in an apartment so for the moment no animals can enter. I apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.

“Abby does a great job!”

About: I have over 30 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and ages.

About: I have been helping my friends and family take care of their fur babies, I love animals and take care of them as if they’re my own family member. I’m a stay at home mom that is willing and able to help others when I am available. We enjoy being outside any kind of weather. My home is set up for taking good care of any dog. I have a good system to take care of any dog. If they have a lot of energy, I have a pup that loves to play, but can seem aggressive when someone new is in her territory, but warms up quickly.

About: I have always loved animals! I am a very experienced care giver when it comes to animals. I worked as a manager at a dog boarding facility for almost two years. During that time I learned how to administer medications, handle special needs dogs/elderly dogs, how to see the warning signs from aggressive dogs, how to handle K9 unit dogs, and much more. Next to that I also have my certification in grooming and training from ABC (Animal Behavior College). Lastly I volunteer at a non-profit called PawPads. They train service dogs from diabetic alert dogs to parapoligic service dogs. I have been doing that for almost 5 years now and absolutely love it. I miss working with animals everyday and hope to be able to do this on a frequent, part time basis!

About: Guaranteeing love, attention, and compassion when you need to step away from home regardless for length of time or reason. I am highly dedicated to my families and their furry family members. I add a touch of difference with the care I provide to all of the animals I work with in that I treat each one individually and never work in a "cookie cutter" approach. I started working with and training animals (horses and dogs) at the age of fifteen. Throughout the years, my interest and passion with animals grew, as well as my experience. I currently have two dogs, a german shepherd and a very entertaining rescue mix. With my german shepherd, we are a K9 team with a search and rescue organization where we are called upon by law enforcement only for people who go lost or missing throught the upper Midwest. I still currently train dogs of all breeds, ages, and temperaments, in addition to training service dogs through an individually owned local business. Due to my long-term experience, I am able to adapt to your pets' individual needs with age, both young and old. I am trained in pet first-aid and CPR, and I am comfortable with any prescribed medical care needs you may have necessary for them. I truly enjoy building a sincere bond and connection with each family I encounter so that when they step away, they can feel at ease and enjoy their time without distress or worry. Topnotch care is my priority! I have decided after many years of working in family care industries, that my remaining years, I want to follow what was my childhood dream. Working with animals, yet still getting to keep my other passion, family care. I couldn't ask for a better combination. With my many years of experience, I always adapt my care to each of my pets needs. As I previously had mentioned I don't believe in "cookie cutter care" approach. I tailor my care to each pets individual needs and concerns.

About: I bring two years of vet tech schooling and a genuine love for dogs and cats, offering safe, attentive, knowledgeable care that keeps every pet relaxed and happy. I'm currently working part time so I have lots of free time to care for your furry loved ones. My availability is pretty flexible for the summer :) I have a fenced in yard and 1 dog who is friendly and crate trained. I’m attentive to noise, stimulation, and comfort, especially for pets who may be anxious in new environments.

About: I have had a dog since middle school. I had a standard poodle, and now my family has a golden retriever. I have lived with roommates in college with a chocolate lab and a rescue puppy. I am currently in my hometown for the summer months and looking to earn a little money before grad school. I love dogs and have a lot of experience with a multitude of different dogs due to family, roommates, and friends. I love to go on walks and understand the stress it causes owners to be away from home so long without being able to take their pet out to use the bathroom/walk. I would love to help in that regard! I will have respect for your home and dog’s/your safety. I prefer instructions so I can meet all your requests! Obviously there is a lot of trust needed for this type of work and I want to make sure to respect that.
