“Hello, Mike is an amazing person and the best pet care giver. I have known him well over a decade, he's always been great to his fur babies as well as my own. Currently when I work double shifts he comes and let's my girls out, and gives them loves. I trust him with my pack, and they trust and love him. I highly recommend him for this role.”

8. Taylor W.

“Taylor did a fabulous job when we left Lincoln with her for the weekend. She was very attentive to follow his schedule and routine but more importantly she gave him lots of love and cuddles! We really appreciated the great job she did as it had been several years since we had left him with anyone except family. We were a little nervous to leave him with a stranger but Taylor did a great job with him. We also appreciated the texts and pics so we could see how he was doing! We would have Taylor come again to watch Lincoln; in fact we have already booked our next two vacations with her!!”

14. Alison B.
About: Growing up I have always had dogs, hamsters and bunnies. I am most likely taking care of something fluffy! I am gentle with pets and will try my best to provide the best care for them. I love exercise and would love to help out families that need extra help walking their pets. I also don't have my own pets down here while I am at college and love the company. I do not have a home for pets to stay because I am at college but I will provide the best care in my clients home. I love to clean and keep things tidy.

18. Melanie V.
About: I have a 7 year old corgi and a 8 year old rescue that we like to call our mystery dog., that has brought much joy to my world! In 2024, we also welcomed 2 cats to their mix. Besides taking care of my own fur babies I have taken care of my friends two small dogs many of times over the past few years. As well as caring for my in laws corgi and sisters cattle dog. Care included, walks, potty breaks, play and feeding. I love being outside and walking dogs is a perfect way for a dog to be ready for downtime once they get home. Much like a child I believe dogs need attention in order to be well behaved and listen well. I am willing to watch dogs that may have special routines. I am interested in walking/ sitting in the early mornings and evenings. I am looking forward to working with you and your furry friend! I am currently working full time but my job allows me to work remotely when I need/want to. I am available most weekends with notice. I have a huge yard that is large enough for any dog to get their energy out. We also have a basement allowing for separate space for our dogs if needed.


19. Robert O.
About: I love playing with pets and staying active. I would be happy to perform other services like delivering pet food, picking up poop or other possible pet related services that are applicable 🙂 I am currently flexible for anytime of the day, night and weekends. Holidays are pending on time of year and plans with loved ones and location. I am very playful and respectful for the pet and your home. If you need additional things done while at your location, feel free to let me know. I am always willing to lend a hand

About: Experienced care for a wide variety of ahes, sizes, and breeds. I've been employed for 2 years by a family who breed doodles, and before then have had at least one year of pet care experience from family, friends, and neighbors. I've done everything from whelping, to handling medication, staying over for long periods of time and following strict schedules to insure proper care. You can trust me with your fuzzy family members! I live near North Branch and I'm also going to be attending college this year in Edina and I am looking for additional work around those areas. My school schedule will be Tuesday-Friday from 8am to 3pm with great flexibility, as I can leave the school for breaks at any time so if your pets need care more frequently it's no problem at all! I have many pets at home with my family, I've put much time into researching their breeds and any specific needs they might have. I keep a good eye on their behaviors, the majority of my work experience has been caring for animals and children so care giving is definitely my forte! Their safety is so important to me as is my clients!
