I completed multiple “Dog Gurus” training sessions for understanding dog behavior and body language. I have an American Red Cross pet CPR certification. experienced caring for reptiles, rodents, birds, and fish as well. My current dogs are a Shih Tzu mix and an American shortie bulldog. Im excellent at caring for seniors, puppies, special needs, and reactive dogs. Also trained in bathing, brushing, ear cleaning, and nail trimmings if your pet/pets need any grooming! I can adapt my routine to make sure your pets get all the attention and exercise they need. I am available Monday-Sunday and on holidays.

About: I have fostered dogs for 6 years through Save-A-Bull and Ruff Start Rescue with my family. All of which have been pit bulls or pit bull mixes. I have grown up around dogs of all sizes ranging from Pomeranians to Great Danes and have loved all of them :) I've also owned and cared for snakes, small rodents, birds, and cats so I'm comfortable with all animals! I'm a part-time college student focusing on my American Sign Language degree. I have been passionate about animals all my life and I enjoy meeting new faces. I'm able to give oral medications if needed and can work with dietary/ movement restrictions. I have never taken care of special needs dogs, but I am certainly willing to try and work with whatever you are looking for! I'm looking forward to filling some of my free time engaging with dogs! I love going on walks, but I also love playing fetch and tug of war. I am also more than happy to watch any other critters you may have- barn animals included :) I’m in college almost full time right now, but over the summer I may pick up a part time job to support myself while school is out. I’m hoping getting a day job won’t limit my dogsitting schedule but we will have to wait and see. I always follow the instructions given to me by my clients. Whenever I am unsure I always ask for clarification. I’m extra careful about opening and closing doors, keeping objects of of reach, and keeping up with day to day schedules.

I currently have 4 dogs ranging from 5 pounds up to 55 pounds and ranging from the ages of 2-9 years old. I absolutely love animals and the joy the bring. I have four dogs at home and three cats.

“At first I was a little hesitant at booking her due to a bad review but I listened to my gut and I couldn't be happier! She took care of my baby Archie just how I wished. I would definitely book her again. I'm not sure where the other reviewer is coming from, absolute nonsense. I would trust McKenzie with my baby over and over again.”

About: I’ve grown up with pets all 22 years of my life, and caring for animals has always been a big part of who I am. I also hold a Bachelor’s degree in Animal Science, where I took specialized courses in dog training and behavior, as well as animal nutrition. On top of that, I gained hands-on experience working as a kennel technician at a local veterinary clinic, caring for pets of all ages—including seniors and those with special medical needs. In my free time, I love walking and spending time with my own dogs, so I truly understand how important daily exercise, consistency, and loving companionship are for a happy, healthy pet. Whether your furry friend needs basic care, training support, or just someone to give them attention and love while you're away, I'm here to help! I recently graduated with a degree in Animal Science and am currently exploring job opportunities in the animal care field. This means I have a very open and flexible schedule right now, and I’m available for pet care throughout the week—including weekdays, weekends, and most holidays. I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine to make sure they get the consistent care they need! Safety and comfort are always my top priorities. At my home, I take dogs out on leashes for all potty breaks and walks to ensure they stay safe and secure at all times. My own dog is crate trained, so I’m familiar with using crates as a safe space when needed. I also take time to slowly introduce pets to new environments or routines to help them feel comfortable and relaxed. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all routines exactly as instructed—whether that’s feeding schedules, medication, or favorite walking routes. I treat every pet like they’re my own and always aim to create a calm, loving, and trustworthy environment.

About: I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life. I love animals, and I love being outside, no matter the weather! I’ll happily walk your furry friend! To me, the well-being of animals is only second to the well-being of people. There is ALWAYS time to care for our furry companions, and even more time to love them. I live on a farm, so my dogs have LOTS of room to run and play because I believe exercise is crucial to a dog’s well-being. I use harnesses rather than collars while they’re on their leash to prevent any pain or discomfort on their neck or throat. :)

About: Hi! My name is Ashlie, I live in Brooklyn Park, MN. I live right across from the Coon Rapids Dam, so there are miles of walking trails right outside my door and a brand new dog park just a block away. I have dog sat often for a variety of dogs for about ten years now. Dog sitting is so much fun for me, I really wish I could do it full time. However, I’m a dental assistant M-F, typically out of the house 12:30-8pm. I have an 11 year old westie named Merlin. We love hiking and going to dog parks and breweries together. He’s a very social dog and used to being around other dogs. If you need a dog sitter for the weekend, I will be taking your dog on several walks and to various parks each day, they will come home tired and happy! I can't wait to meet your furry friend!! Thank you for considering me! I’m mostly available on weekends to dog sit. I am happy to watch your dog on weekdays if they are ok while I’m at work from 1-8pm. Please let me know if you’re comfortable with me bringing my dog to your house. He does well with other pets and mostly keeps to himself.

“Lawrence came on short notice, as weve never had an outsider walk our pitbull, I was kinda hesitant, but upon greeting, he and I talked for a little, and the dog seemed to warm up to him very quickly. It's clear he does this as a profession and astro loved him. On their walk they saw the neighborhood deer roaming and he got an amazing video too!! I definitely recommend Lawrence!!”
