Matt and Angela took great care of my dog Osi! Osi and their dog, Alfie, had so much fun together. Osi is definitely looking forward to his next play date. Highly recommend Matt and Angela!

Pennie Rose had a perfect day with Jess and her family. Jess sent pictures and updates while Pennie played and settled in on Jess’s husband’s lap. 😊. She came home very happy and stress free! It’s so nice to go away and know your pet is also having a fun experience! This sitter is perfect 10!

Megan took great care of Tillie! I had surgery and she was flexible when we needed to drop her off earlier than I had stated in the app. Megan had a fenced in backyard which Tillie was able to play with her dog. Would definitely have Megan watch her again in the future!

About: Hello neighbors! I am a mom and resident of Rochester who works from home regularly and loves to go for a walk with or drop in to see your pup as a break from my day. My husband and I had our own dog until she passed away and, over the years, have also fostered several others and dogsat frequently. I love all dogs and have a special soft spot for pitties and other larger breeds. We have two young kids who enjoy having dog visitors as well. I typically only take a couple bookings per week, though I make exceptions when I can for repeat customers and for customers who live especially close to us. Feel free to get in touch to learn more about me and how I can support your family. I work full time but have a flexible schedule and can plan to take breaks at multiple points in the day as needed. If a request conflicts with something on my calendar I’ll always check before booking if a slightly later or earlier visit might work with your and your dog’s schedule. I am a very conscientious dog walker and sitter. I clean up after your dog and myself and will always ask if I need to know where you keep poop bags, treats, or towels to clean muddy feet if it’s a rainy day. Feel free to share any special preferences or requests so I can accommodate them.

About: I have had dogs in my life since the age of 3. I have fostered dogs waiting to be adopted while also caring for my own. I work fully remote during and have schedule flexibility which allows for great availability for dog walking, drop in visits, and doggy daycare at my home. My preference is to have an introduction visit with you and your pets prior to me visiting with them alone. During this time, I’ll learn about your routines and how you would like me to care for them. This also helps them see me as a trustworthy human!

About: I have been around animals and dogs my whole life. I recently lost my 17 yr old baby girl and I miss the companionship but not quite ready for a new pup! I am responding and will make sure your baby gets top notch care! I work real close to home so I am able to pop by when I have a break and check in on the babies! I am usually home every night. I care for your babies just as I would mine.. animals are the bestest of friends and deserve the best of the best. Lots of love and attention will be given.

About: Relocated here from Iowa. Enjoy working with different dogs. Pet lover. I completed 6 months of Veterinarian Assistant classes online. Life happened and I had to take a pause. But I do plan to go back and finish obtaining my associates degree at Penn Foster. So whether it be house sitting with the animals or simply doing some walking or activities, I don't mind and will enjoy my time with them. Its something I enjoy as one of my hobbies. I work full time. It helps keep me active and happy. I enjoy play time with pets because they too have different personalities. Love Dogs. We cuddle mostly and play. Take walks outside. Play fetch with their toys. It's cool to go to the backyard and be socialable with nature. I think it helps with sensory awareness.

Andria's family and dog are all very friendly towards my puppy. Nori had a blast there. He got home and fell asleep within 30 minutes, so I didn't have to spend a lot of time playing with him in the evening:) Andria also captured a few great photos of Nori running in the snow with his new friend. Love the photos!

About: I’ve been taking care of my family's and friend’s dogs for about 5 years now and would love the chance to care for more! I will care for your fur babies like they were my own! ❤️🐾 I’m currently a stay at home mom. All my kids are in school, so my 3 year old yellow lab is my only child home during the day! I have plenty of time to give lots of love and attention to your dogs. I have a fenced in backyard and a friendly yellow lab who loves to play with other dogs. I enjoy going on walks and playing outside with dogs but also love to snuggle on the couch with them too!

I absolutely loved my experience with Andrew. My husband had major surgery and our Winnie got a little stir crazy at the hotel. Andrew treated her with such love and care. He treated her like one of his pack members. I have never left my dog with anyone but family before so I was a little nervous. After a couple pictures and texts from Andrew I could tell he had been spending quality time with Winnie and knew her quirky personality. We have to come to Mayo Clinic often for testing and I will not hesitate to use Andrew's services again!! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

My husband and I were so grateful to meet and connect with Tina. Our plans fell through on watching our two doodles and she was able to accommodate us last minute. Tina is personable to our dogs as well as their owners and thats one major thing that we liked about her. We received several updates, many pictures and even a few videos throughout the day as we had preferred. Both pups were worn out from so much play time so it was nice to come home to relax with exhausted dogs! Thank you SO much Tina. We highly recommend her!

Our dogs had a blast with Matt & Angela! They worked around my schedule to be able to accommodate them for a few hours and I got lots of pictures and videos while they were there! Nice to know that Angela has experience as a vet/tech as well. Would definitely recommend your pups stay here for a great experience!
