Dog Sitting Robbinsdale

“Caroline did two drop in visits with our cat Gucci. On our initial meet and greet with her our dog, who generally doesn't like strangers, took to her immediately. That's always a sign to me that someone is really good with animals. Both drop in visits went well. Communication was excellent. She did some extra work (cat got unexpectedly sick) and she handled it really well and was transparent to us. Caroline will be our go-to going forward and I would recommend her to others.”

About: When you have to be away, I want to provide a compassionate space for your four legged family member to be cared for. I understand how much dogs and cats add to our lives and how they deserve the best we can give them. And next to you, I am the best. I hold a work ethic that allows you to rely on me to provide for your pet and get their needs met. I can stay at your home, drop in, or open my home. Let's collaborate together and create the most stress free plan for your dog(s) or cat(s). Then relax while you confidently know that I will be tending to all the details we arrange for the health and happiness of your loved one. I work part time and share a lot of boarding care with my partner. Our schedules overlap so your pup will have very little time that they might have to be alone. When your pup stays with me in my home we try to make their stay as comfortable as possible. There are areas for both chill time and outside time; with dedicated space for rest and play as well as an easily accessible fenced yard.

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life! I first had a husky and now have my favorite little man, Bug. I am super friendly and get along with most dogs! I am currently working part-time so I’m very flexible with my availability! It varies, so we can talk about scheduling a time that works for you! I will always prioritize your pets’ safety and comfort! I will adjust to any needs that your pet requires and will give them lots of love!

“Kiirsten is reliable and great about sending pictures!”

About: I’ve always loved animals and have experience caring for all kinds of pets, including dogs and cats. I’m patient and can pick up on each pet’s personality and needs. I’m happy to follow routines and make sure your pets feel comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to fit pet care into my day. I’m able to make time for walks or drop-ins while working around each pet’s normal routine. I’m also happy to adjust my schedule when a pet needs extra care or attention. I focus on keeping pets comfortable and sticking to their normal routines as much as possible. In a client’s home, I’ll follow their instructions for feeding, walks, medications, and playtime while keeping their space clean and secure. I’m attentive to each pet’s personality and needs and always treat them like my own.

About: I am the biggest animal lover ever! I’ve had a dog for the last 10 years, but have had a love for dogs and cats since I was little. I love a good long walk with my dog and my favorite thing to do after work is play with her. Taking care of animals is so much fun and it brings me so much joy in life. I am the perfect person for this job because I am a very caring and trusting person. I am so excited to be working with animals because they have been my love since I was a child. I am the ultimate animal lover and I would love to work with you and your pet(s) now and in the future. I am a full time student in my masters program at the University of Minnesota, but only have class 3 days a week. During my down time and free time, I would love to help someone out with their animal and get my much needed animal affection. Pet care is not a job for me, it is a honor. When it comes for caring for my pet and others pets, I am a very caring and warm person. I am very gentle and will make sure the animal is comfortable before doing anything. I am in their space and want the animal to trust me. I make sure the pet has everything they need and more, because it is what they deserve.

About: With 12 years of experience caring for both dogs and cats, I bring a lifetime of love, patience, and understanding to every furry friend I meet. Growing up in a pet-loving family, I had the joy of bonding with cats and dogs alike, and now I have a sweet pup of my own who continues to teach me every day. I’ve worked with dogs of all ages—from playful puppies to wise seniors—and have some training experience that helps me connect with each pet’s unique needs and personality. To me, animals are the most precious beings, and they deserve more than just basic care—they deserve to be loved, respected, and pampered. I will always go out of my way to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and at home, as if they were my own! Even though my job comes with an unusual and ever-changing schedule, pet care is always a top priority in my life. I make it a point to plan around the pets I care for—ensuring they get all the love, attention, and consistency they need. Whether it’s making time for a walk, a cuddle session, or just being there when they need company, I’m fully committed to giving every pet in my care the same love and attention I give my own. Flexibility is part of my lifestyle, and it allows me to show up for your pets when you need me most! I care for my own dog with daily walks, lots of playtime, and all the cuddles he could ever want—he’s truly part of the family! That same level of love and attention is what I bring to every pet I care for. And while my dog is friendly and well-socialized, I completely understand that every pet has different comfort levels. If your pet needs space or a more private experience, I can easily keep them separated to ensure they feel safe, relaxed, and right at home!

“Renée was wonderful!!! They were super nice, very responsive and really put this anxious chinchilla mom at ease <3 I will 100% be asking them to take care of Nezzy in the future!!”

“If I could give 10 stars I would. Ciboney is so incredible- we have two cats and fish and lots of plants. She’s so communicative and kind! We’re so grateful to have her take care of our little ones❤️”

About: Our entire lives have always been rooted in puppy love. We’ve been active in the foster and rescue community for years-raising our own pups from as young as eight weeks old, supporting our pregnant rescue dog through delivery and whelping, and providing compassionate care for our senior dogs. Our experience includes managing picky eaters, following strict diets, administering medications (including home IV treatments), handling skin care needs, supporting incontinence and reinforcing basic obedience house training and grooming. We’re confident and comfortable caring for dogs with a wide range of needs. I work full time from home and my husband works outside of the home with a flexible schedule. Our schedules combined ensure that our pups have plenty of time for play, naps and potty breaks. Our pups have supervised access to the main areas of our house and a fully fenced in backyard while we are home and we will always follow your pups routine to keep things comfortable and safe for your pet. When we are away from home we are generally only out for a max of 4 hours, we have plenty of room for your pups kennel and are able to gate off areas to ensure your dog is safe and feels at home. Dogs are allowed on the couches and beds if they like. My flexible schedule allows for drop-in visits for early mornings and after 5pm, mid-day drop-in visits can also be provided too if near the Robbinsdale area, boarding booking we can flexible to fit your needs. Our two dogs, Don Vito (2y/o) and Carmine (1y/o) are well socialized with all ages and sizes of dogs, they regularly play with the neighborhood dogs, indoor/outdoor dog park regulars, road trips to friends and family members home with dogs & cats and LOVE going on outings to dog friendly breweries and patios. For first timers, we suggest an intro play date and sniff session at our place to help ensure your pup will feel comfortable at our home, we will only take in dogs from one household at a time to ensure your family member is comfortable while you are away. We’ll share daily photos and video updates, we also have indoor Wyze cameras in the living room and near Carmine’s crate so we can keep a watchful eye on the pups whenever we’re out or overnight. We have a fully fenced in backyard and can crate your dog if needed and follow their crate schedule. We also have baby gates to help keep your dog from the stairs and bedroom areas. One side of our backyard has a lower fence–if your dog is a jumper, they would land in our neighbor’s fence yard, not an open area. Our backyard provides plenty of opportunities for squirrel watching, our Australian Sheppard Blue, used to LOVE chasing them up the tree and into the neighbor’s yard. When the dogs are outside, we keep a close eye on them to help ensure they are safe, happy and have plenty of time to potty. Our pups LOVE to play with toys, Carmine is a heavy chewer so we keep the softer toys separate, he will definitely destroy them

About: I have taken care of multiple friends pets throughout the years! I work from home so I can spend an ample amount of time with your pets! I am currently a full time work from home employee so I will have ample time to play and hang out with your furry friends! I will always stay vigilant and ensure your pets health and safety while you are away! I will take plenty of pictures of your furry friends for you to keep tabs on your babies!

About: Hey there! My name is Courtney, I am 30 years old and I’ve always loved dogs! I currently live with my husband, our 3 year old son, and our 2 lab-mixed rescues (black lab 8y, yellow lab 6y). I have used Rover over the last 9 years and love meeting new pups. I primarily offer walks and drop-ins, but have flexibility for dog sitting or house sitting as well. I absolutely love walking around near my house or traveling to other areas, and try getting outside as much as possible. I have a very flexible work schedule that accommodates any obligations I have, as well as work from home capabilities. My weekends tend to be very open as well, as long as I have notice and a schedule. I look forward to (hopefully) working with you and your furry friend as soon as possible! ***Also taking recurring dog walking or house visits! Primarily in the summer months but open to other times of year! I am a very schedule oriented person with a lot of love for furry friends. Having grown up with dogs, and now two dogs of my own, I understand the commitment and devotion needed for furry friends. Safety and trust are the first steps in any pet care scenario. I want the dog to get acclimated to me as I am to them, and to know I’m here to help and spend quality time together. I have done many types of care including onboarding, walking, drop in, house sitting, and medication administering.

“Daisy took such great care of my two cats! She was super punctual and consistent checking in on them each morning and I could tell by the playful photos that they enjoyed her company! It’s so nice to have someone you can trust look after your fur family when you’re away, Daisy is that person!”

About: I have 10+ years of experience caring for neighbor’s pets, including cats, reptiles, and other not-so-furry friends, as well as taking care of my family’s many dogs and my own cats. I also foster-sit with a Minneapolis rescue when it works out. When I’m not working in office Tuesday- Thursday, I’m around all day to hang out with your furry friend and ensure all their needs are met. When caring for your pets in my home or yours, they can expect lots of playtime, cuddles, and walks to the park. My home also has a fenced backyard for your pup to let all the zoomies out.

About: I used to own two Cavaliers, and have taken care of various dogs on behalf of friends/family, including dog sitting for my sister's high anxiety rescue dog, and now have taken care of numerous dogs in the year I’ve been on Rover. I find that a calm, patient demeanor can win over even the most stranger-wary dog. I am in the process of changing careers, so am taking classes, which meet mostly online. Aside from the few hours a week when I volunteer to work with special-needs children in therapeutic horseback riding, my schedule is very flexible, including nights/weekends. Mornings? Evenings? Last minute? No problem. I think of pets as family, and will treat your pet like my family. (Don't worry, that's a good thing!) As a horseback rider, I find the skills of working with our animal friends transfer easily. Regardless of species, they enjoy human attention/affection, engagement and are often much smarter than we give them credit for.

About: **FYI some availability has changed due to Sean starting a new work from home job with increased demands on his time. We do still have availability, please reach out to check if we will be a good fit! For over a year now, we’ve been dedicated to providing high-quality, personalized pet care. We’re passionate about what we do and committed to creating the best possible experience for both pets and their people. Every animal is treated like family, and we take pride in being dependable, loving, and detail-oriented. Kimbrey has over a decade of hands-on experience caring for both large and small breed dogs. Growing up, her mother ran a small-breed doggie daycare, boarding, and breeding business out of their home—and for seven years, Kimbrey was her sole employee and right-hand helper. She managed the daily care of numerous dogs and often took over completely when her mother was away. She’s assisted with the birth and upbringing of 8+ puppy litters, administered medications, and worked closely with dogs facing a variety of behavioral challenges. We currently have two large dogs of our own. One is a Great Pyrenees mix rescued in 2021—loyal, protective, and reactive, with behaviors like leash-pulling, barking, and herding visitors. Our younger dog, Venus, has picked up some of those traits and also has a habit of eating things she shouldn’t. So we’re very familiar with managing multiple large dogs with distinct personalities, needs, and quirks—and loving them through it all. While we can’t have cats at home (our dogs aren’t the best match), we truly love them and are happy to provide check-ins or visits when needed. Just let us know your preferences, and you can count on us to follow through with care, attention, and love. My husband and I work together for coverage so if you have any preferences, just let us know :) My job as a nurse in the breast center is from 8-4pm Tuesdays/Wednesdays-Fridays with a one hour lunch break that I take at home most days while my husband, Sean, works from home (possibly your home while sitting). Simply ask your dates and we’ll let you know what works! If we are in your home, we am flexible to stay there or at our own depending on the situation. We are pretty clean people, and will leave your home to the best of our abilities in the same condition we arrived to it in. If you have plants we should care for during our sit, please provide detailed instructions on care. Thank you!

About: What sets me apart as a dog sitter is my lifelong love and experience with animals—I grew up with pets of my own and truly understand the care and attention they need. As a dog lover at heart, I treat every pet like family. My passion for the outdoors means your dog will enjoy plenty of fresh air and long, enriching walks. I also have a special place in my heart for relaxed, elderly pets and am more than happy to provide the gentle care, patience, and extra snuggles they deserve. Your pet’s comfort and happiness are my top priorities. I am a Physician Assistant and have a wide array of availability. I keep my rover schedule up to date and frequently have evening availability during the weeks! I will foster a safe environment for your loved ones, making sure that all their needs are met! I am trustworthy and will put you and your animals best interest at heart.

About: I have had dogs in my family my whole life. I have cared for my family dog throughout its senior years. I now have a toy poodle of my own who I cared for during her recovery from a broken leg. She is now a happy and healthy pup who loves to run and play, so high energy dogs are no stranger to me. I am always drawn to dogs everywhere I go but it seems dogs tend to be drawn to me as well always wanting to say hello! I work full time from home with occasional in-office days in downtown Minneapolis. In-office days are sporadic so I may be unavailable some days. Otherwise, I can work from anywhere so I am very flexible. Pet’s safety and comfort is always my number one priority. I am cautious and aware when opening doors that pets could slip out of. When out in public I am always aware of other animals nearby as you cannot always guarantee every pet owner is responsible to keep their pet leashed. I am aware of foods that are toxic to pets and refrain from feeding pets “people” food. Additionally I keep all plants and other toxic items out of reach of pets.

About: I’m a friendly, energetic dog walker with a flexible schedule to help meet your pet’s needs! I’ve owned multiple breeds and sizes of dogs and cats and am excited to give your furry friend care while you’re away! I work a flexible job with some availability throughout the work day, as well as frequent weekend availability. I’d be happy to make sure your pet is well taken care of any time you’re away! I’d love to walk your dog around my neighborhood near Cedar Lake, or come to you! You can also trust me to care for your cat or dog in your home while being the most respectful of your space.

About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was 10 years old, and spending time with pets has always been one of my favorite things. I’m comfortable with a variety of personalities, from playful and energetic to shy and cuddly. I love making sure each pet feels safe, happy, and cared for. My flexible service industry schedule makes pet care easy to fit in! It allows for daytime, evening, and weekend visits, so I can easily plan drop-ins, walks, and quality time with your pet. I’ve always been the friend people trust with their pets. I’m attentive, calm, and communicative, and I love sending updates so you know your pet is happy and cared for. Based in Northeast Minneapolis and often in St. Louis Park, I’m regularly around the Twin Cities and happy to help with walks, drop-ins, and lots of love.
