House Sitting in Saint Bonifacius

“We love Grace! She is always willing to work with us even when it's last minute! Thanks Grace for taking such good care of our pets! We truly appreciate you.”

“My puppy had abdominal surgery and required more care than usual - more potty breaks, more feed times, meds given several times, including eye drops! Ashley did a great job taking care of him throughout the day and overnight! Would recommend”

“Katharine and her daughter were fantastic! They took the time to really understand our dog’s daily care and feeding routine, they were in contact with pictures and messages every day while we gone, and everything looked just as we had left it when we returned. Best of all it was obvious they both truly love animals, and I know they showered our fur baby with love while we were away. Highly recommend!”

About: I have had both cats and dogs for as long as I can remember! I have had both through all stages of their lives, puppy/kitten - senior. I also have experience with administering medications. I am a college student who misses my own pets, and I would love to help care for yours so they do not get lonely! I am currently a college student and I do not have another job at the moment. This semester I am in class from 12pm-3pm M/W/F, and 8am-1:30pm on T/Th. Outside of that, I am a student leader so I have meetings on Monday’s from 3:30-5pm and events on some Friday's. However, I make sure to find time on my lunch breaks and before and after class to make sure pups can get outside and get a little love in between the times I have to be away. At my home, I have a fenced in yard for my dog, who is generally very well behaved, but I do not leave him unattended for long. He loves to wrestle and be brushed, so we do that often. He gets food once daily, per vet recommendations. In the past when I have had cats, they loved to cuddle and were pretty lazy. I cleaned out their litter box’s every 1-2 days, and they were grazers so I kept their food and water full daily.

“Gabby watched Winston (in-house) while my family was away for spring break. Winston is a high drive vizsla and can be quite a shock to people that aren't use to their relentlessness and lack of recognition of personal space. After meeting Gabby we knew Winston would be in good hands though. Gabby sent us updates (including pictures) and was quick to respond when we check-in. If you need someone to watch your pup, we definitely recommend Gabby!”

“Karri was great with our elderly dog while we were gone for a week. She stayed in our home and took care of him like he was her own. She went over and above in taking care of Ben. He has ongoing health issues that can change very quickly and she easily adapted to his needs, gave meds and even completed ear cleanings when needed. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter. We will not hesitate to have Karri stay with Ben again.”

“Riley did a great job caring for my lab. It was a 4+ day stay and she was communicative and I felt very comfortable leaving my dog in her care.”

Angela S.

“Hannah came and watched our four dogs for a few hours. We were able to book her on a very short notice and she was very nice. She was very positive in her interactions with our dogs, which we greatly appreciated. We could not have been more pleased with Hannah, thank you again!!”

Marty C.

“Samantha was wonderful! Very communicative and took notes when first meeting our animals. Left our house in lovely condition and was very respectful! Our animals were well cared for when we got back. Even our shy cat came out to say hello and get pets!”

About: I worked at a doggy daycare and boarding facility for a year before focusing on teaching voice lessons and performing. To supplement income, I am also offering house sitting when you’re on vacation. My schedule is flexible and I teach in Chaska/Chanhassen, so I can be home with your pets after 4-5 hours at school max. I will stay at your home during the house sitting stay full time outside of my flexible work/rehearsal schedule and can also water plants, take trash out to curb, etc as discussed. I'm currently working part-time, and set my own schedule as a freelance singer. Therefore, I'm able to work from home and have daytime availability for dog walks, playtime, and snuggles. I have a flexible schedule and can modify my routine for your pet’s needs, especially nearby to where I teach lessons. I’ll fit myself into your pet’s schedule when I house sit. I follow your rules at your home to keep your pets safe in the environment in which they’re most comfortable! I want to disturb their routine as little as possible.

“Maddie stayed with our two dogs over Thanksgiving weekend for the first time and we are so happy we have found her! She kept us informed, took pictures, followed the care instructions and wrangled numerous mail and packages being delivered. We had snow come in while we were away and it was so nice to come home to a shoveled driveway!! Maddie is passionate about pet sitting and you can’t go wrong booking with her. She will be watching them again soon!”

About: Hi, my name is Annalyse and I am 18 years old. I grew up around lots of animals, including dogs, so I have plenty of experience, and I can’t wait to help you and your furry friend!! I can do a variety of services and am willing to do same day services when I am able!! I currently work for the city of Chanhassen as a park camp leader, and pet sitting is just a fun side job!! I am looking forward to pet sitting in my free time, but it is not my main job, however I hope to provide quality care to you and your pets!! All pets need different levels and types of care, but all deserve love. I am willing to do any service except for boarding, as my current home does not allow dogs. I can do house sitting as well as over night stays, however I would request a meetup prior to either of those services to get to know you guys!!

About: I’ve cared for dogs my entire life and currently own four, including both young and senior dogs. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, medications, walks, playtime, and basic training reinforcement. I prioritize safety, calm energy, and treating every pet like my own. I’m currently enrolled in college online, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to be home most of the day. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and playtime on weekdays, as well as boarding and extended care on weekends. I prioritize a calm, safe environment and always follow owner instructions closely. I’m attentive to routines, feeding schedules, and any special needs. Pets are supervised at all times, spaces are kept clean and secure, and I’m happy to crate if requested.

About: Love all doggies every shape and size! Grew up with two beautiful west highland terriers who were the best birthday gift in the world for 10 year old me. Been dog sitting/ house sitting for my family and friends for quite some time now and thought I should start doing it more so here I am! I work a few jobs (some part time other seasonal work) super grateful that my jobs are extremely flexible and so fitting in dog care and dog sitting is easy and attainable. I’m very attentive when it comes to understanding and learning owners routines and schedules they have for their furry friends. Feeding times, what the dog likes and dislikes, how many times they need to be let outside etc. I’m always alert and aware if anything goes astray.

“Elizabeth was an amazing dog sitter for our 12 year old Golden Retriever, Maggie! She was patient with her and communicated with me regularly during her stay at our house. Maggie was very well taken care of and happy when we returned! Many thanks to the time and attention that Elizabeth gave her!!”

About: Here for your longer or short term needs! I can pet walk, sit, home check ins, feed, or fill in for any of your pet/house needs! I have lived and worked with all sized dogs, many breeds, sometimes many at a time (goldens) and have always lived with at least one cat. I frequently have stayed at clients homes and house/dog/cat sat anywhere from a weekend to a week. I work only part time as an RN so I have half the week for being around frequently, I don’t mind staying at your place or checking in daily as needed while you are away! I LOVE walking and running! I have always lived with cats and dogs, I am comfortable with most animals and will make your furry loved ones comfortable, as well as respect your home and space! I have taken care of elderly dogs with arthritis and one who was half paralyzed, making your pet feel safe and comfortable with me is my priority.

“Winnie was well taken care of and was a super happy girl when we arrived back home from a vacation!”

“Nakita was the best! I had major anxiety about leaving my two dogs for the first time - to the point where I’ve hardly left the house in two years, let alone go on a much-needed vacation! Nakita was both professional and personable, which made it an easy choice to hire her and feel confident about leaving my babies with her. She sent me daily updates with super cute videos and photos, which made it easier for me to be away and enjoy my travels. I have a quirky, anxious older dog (Gus) and a rescue with major stranger-danger (Grace), and Nakita handled both of their personalities like a champ. It was only a matter of time before my shy girl Grace was begging her for pets and attention. Her experience in working with animals with special needs really shines. She also made sure to give them their medications on schedule. I would definitely hire her again!”

Sara A.

“Ryan was awesome! He was adamant about meeting my chihuahuas and giving updates often! He made sure that they were comfortable when some big storms moved through and was so considerate of being in our home. We are grateful and would use again.”

About: My family started fostering with a dog rescue when I was in school and I have helped with over 20 dogs in our home. They each had their own issues we had to work with. Patience and making them feel safe. I have also worked in 2 vet clinics while I was in school. I am available during the day and evenings as well as overnight. I have availability Monday through Sunday. Depending on clients needs we can find a schedule that works. I can walk the dogs daily. If there is a yard or park I can take them to play ball or frisbee(toy of their choice) I am always available to snuggle those dogs that prefer a friend next to them on the couch.
