House Sitting in Saint Augusta

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.

“Absolutely amazing. Great updates of going on walks, play times and updates during house sitting. Ben connected with our dogs from the start during the meet and greet which was great. Over all, this was a great experience and would definitely book Ben for future house sitting with our fur babies.”

“Alex did an amazing job with our critters! She was very communicative, sending frequent updates and fun photos and videos. I felt so reassured the pets were having a great time and were well cared for. She went above and beyond her expected duties. We will absolutely ask her to petsit again!”

About: I’ve spent years caring for pets for friends and family, including pet sitting in my home, staying in their homes, walking dogs, cleaning kennels, and bathing. I also have three years of hands-on experience working at a doggie daycare and boarding facility, where I cared for dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. This experience has given me strong skills in handling, supervising group play, maintaining safe environments, and understanding dog behavior. No matter the situation, I’m happy to work with your specific needs to make sure your pet is comfortable and well cared for. I truly love caring for animals and enjoy spending time with them outside of my regular work hours. Whether it’s the smallest pup, the biggest dog, or even cats—I love them all! I have plenty of love, attention, and care to give, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. I’ve had dogs my entire life, so I understand just how important it is to trust someone with your furry family members. As a pet owner myself, I know you want the very best for them—and that’s exactly the level of care I strive to provide. Your pet will be treated like part of the family, receiving all the affection, cuddles, and attention they could ever want.

“Very reliable! Felt safe with Amber in our home. Thank you Amber for taking such good care of our fur babies!”

“Marissa is wonderful! She communicates well, my dogs love her, and my house was tidier than I left it. She vacuumed for me! I am very impressed and have already booked her for another stay.”

About: I have grown up with dogs and many other pets since birth. We used to raise dogs, now we have two medium sized dogs. I love animals and I hope to have a career where I can continue that passion. Just graduated from high school May 2025, and I have a schedule allowing me to be able to continue caring for animals and to continue this passion of mine! I have two medium family dogs and they are very important, special members of the family. I treat every single pet with care and respect.

“Mariah was communicated well while we were gone and was very patient with our puppy Bella. We could tell she was happy and relaxed in all of the photos despite it being her first time away from us. We arrived home to a clean and tidy home. We would highly recommend her to anyone needing a sitter and will be using her again in the future.”

“Jessica was amazing! She sent updates the entire time and made sure all our pets were well taken care of. She even left our house looking like no one had even been there!”

“We're so grateful for Vanessa's house sitting service! Her care and attention to our cat was wonderful - I know he really enjoyed it! And we appreciated Vanessa's frequent updates on how things were going while we were away. If you're looking for a highly responsible and responsive person to love your pet(s) as you do, I highly recommend Vanessa! :-)”

About: I have over 30 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and ages. My love for animals started when I was young, walking dogs for neighbors and friends, and it quickly grew into a lifelong passion. As I got older, I volunteered at my local humane society and have continued providing trusted pet care for pets ever since. I have extensive experience working with dogs of all temperaments, including reactive dogs, dogs with separation anxiety, and dogs who may show aggressive behaviors. I’m patient, attentive, and always focused on creating a calm, safe, and positive environment for every dog in my care. In addition, I have experience with housebreaking as well as basic obedience training, and I’m happy to help reinforce routines and good habits during your pet’s stay. I have experience with house breaking and basic obedience training. I work part time from home which gives me a lot of flexibility to do what I’m most passionate about which is taking care of animals!

About: I have taken care of pets of all kinds throughout my life. My 13 year old Mini Daschund recently passed and I would like to help out other pet parents with my free time! I have owned/fostered dogs like huskies, pitbulls, Bernese Mountain Dogs, Great Pyrenees, and labs. I understand the feeling of not wanting to leave your dog at home but knowing that life doesn't always flow with that. I have pet sat and walked dogs for over 20 years and understand that patience is the best policy for pets. I love treating animals like they are my own with lots of spoiled love! I work for the school district so early morning walks/visits and afternoon/evening visits are best. During the weekend I am available almost all the time! Being aware of surroundings and the signals the pet you are handling are giving you are the most important things for safety with pets. Offering care in my apartment would be limited to dogs that matches my own personal dogs energy but my own personal pets would never have to come stay with me in others homes/care visits!

“Crystal took such wonderful care of my 2 babies (cats) and provided lots of pics and video clips. I liked knowing that my fur kids were in good hands while I was away. Will definitely book again with Crystal and highly recommend her services!”

“This was my first time using Rover and Julia was awesome! She has great communication and even sent me pictures and videos of my dog! I’ll definitely have her stay with my dog again!!”

About: I have dog sat for numerous family friends for afternoons, weekends, or an occasional walk. I have also had some dogs of my own that are my world! I would love to give love to your furry friends when you are away! I am currently a college student, so I have a very flexible schedule everyday. Also my weekends are typically free to help out with your pups! I always give plenty of pets and attention to all animals. Making sure they are well fed and hydrated is a must, with plenty of treats mixed into that as well!

About: I've taken care of, trained and loved animals since I was little. Growing up that infatuation grew into a dream to have my own kennel and business. Now I own and operate Pawsitive Journey, so in a way uou could say that dream has turned into a reality. I'm experienced with a wide variety of behaved dogs, puppies and more. Don't be afraid to reach out. When your fur babies are in my care, they will be treated and cared for as family. I'm currently self-employed through Pawsitive Journey, so I will have plenty of time to provide your pet with the care, attention, and playtime you want and expect. I have a 6+ years of handling and caring for animals in general and would be able to provide the most comfort and the most exhilarating time while you are away, depending on what your pet requires.

“Suzuko does such a great job! Lots of love for the pets, good communication with owners, and house left in great shape! She is a regular and would recommend 🙂”

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: Ive been taking care of animals, and children since a child! I currently own my own cat and a fish i’ve been caring for years now! I recently moved to St.Augusta Minnesota, while attending paramedic school in minneapolis. I just left my two year job for relocation and have a pet of my own. I’m looking to care for you pets as much as possible while I am in school. I’m able to care for your animal however you need, and am open to your own personal standards. I’m happy to do as is needed for your own personal pet needs!

“Samantha stayed at our house for two nights to watch our old fella and it was great. Couldn’t even tell she’d been there and the dog was happy and taken care of. Will definitely have her again!”
