Pet Sitting in Saint Mary

“Taylor is an excellent cat sitter and very attentive to our 5 cats needs. She provided the confidence we need when we need to be away that all are taken care of properly. She arrives on time and is a wonderful communicator! I love that she is nearby and that we can call on her when needed as well. We especially like the photos and the notifications that Rover sends as well.”

About: I've always loved dogs. I've spent three years working at a dog shelter as office manager, intake person which includes giving oral and injection medications, adoption coordinator, feeding and watering, cleaning, and socializing. I'm available during the week after 5:30pm. Weekends are open. I volunteer at the local dog shelter but need a little something more to fill my need to spend time with animals. I enjoy nature walks and stop as often as the dogs do to look at things. :) My schedule is flexible. When I am with dogs, it is sometimes hard to draw my attention away from them because they are so very loving and giving. I like to give that back to them.

About: I have owned between 2-4 dogs my entire life, ranging from small-large in size. I currently have a medium and a large size dog, both are friendly and love to play! My yard is unfenced, but I have access to a dog park just behind my home. I can offer any potty times and feeding times needed! I'm currently working gig work and do not have a steady job. I am home most of the time and can give your furry friend all of the attention they desire! I have 2 dogs that are very friendly and love to play! I live very close to a dog park, as in I can see it from my home! My dogs play in the house constantly, as well as going on regular walks and trips to the dog park!

About: I’ve done pet sitting jobs growing up, I always had pets growing up that I helped take care of. My 8 month old son also loves dogs. We are a very pet friendly family and hope to get a dog of our own one day. Prefer dogs that are good with kids I’m currently a stay at home mom so me and my son would love to help you by taking care of your animal and giving it some love I have a park really close to me that I can take your pet to on walks. It can hangout and play with us. I have no other dogs or cats.

“Sydney is absolutely lovely. I loved the pictures and videos she sent me. I looked forward to her messages. She is kind and playful with my dogs. The most important thing to me was she made a connection with Roxie. Roxie is shy and often won’t leave her crate for pet sitters, but she did for Sydney. I will book with Sydney again!”

About: I have a history of working with dogs in rescues, whether it be taking them for walks or grooming. I have had dogs of my own, and over the past year I have taken in over a dozen dogs of all ages, sizes and temperaments and taken care of them completely and help train them until they have found homes of their own. I have worked with special needs dogs that included giving them medications and providing some physical support. I have experience with seizure dogs. I currently work full time but am provided breaks throughout the day in which I can help to check in on animals and provide walks needed. I have experience in crating & rotating if needed. Dogs are let outside on a long lead to use the rest room and are on leashes as we walk around our property in the country.

I live with my family my husband and my daughter Shelly and my son Noah who is almost 7 years old. I live in a home with a fenced yard and I walk the dogs all the time. I'm off work Saturdays and Sundays. Monday through Friday I'm a dental assistant but have flexible hours. I will be the person taking care of your fur family. I am good at bathing and grooming dogs. I love all dogs and am very trustworthy. If you need a sitter or dog walker reach out to me.

She stays separate from any dog that enters my home and is crate rotated.

“Onnika was AMAZING! I just got a new kitten and my other cat is still adjusting to that change and she took every step to make sure both of them not only felt comfortable but loved. She took both of their feelings into consideration and tried out different things to see what was working best for them and what seemed to make them the happiest. For an anxious cat mom who has never left her babies with anyone besides family/friends she was a life saver and sent so many pictures and videos that put my mind at ease. I recommend her SO much and will definitely be using her again in the future :)”

“Kasandra was great to depend on to look over my dogs. Especially when it was a last minute booking. On top of looking after them, she was able to do some miscellaneous things that came about due to certain circumstances. It really give you a peace of mind when you can rely on someone to look after your fur babies. Thanks Kasandra!”

About: I’m a volunteer at BENCHS regional pet shelter where I’m involved in their dog enrichment program and dog walking. Ive worked with a wide variety of temperaments/ages/shapes/sizes. I’ve had dogs my whole life, and currently have a very smart 5yr old Doberman/lab named Remi who loves running, swimming, hiking, and knows a ton of unique tricks. Such as playing dead, spinning, rolling over, speak, and whisper, and much more. My normal routine involves walking my own dog twice a day no matter what (including enrichment/training). My volunteer work also involves walking multiple dogs during the afternoons. I enjoy working with and training not only my own dogs but other dogs. My dog is spoiled but very well behaved. She has a regular schedule and I try my best to give her a daily routine she can rely on. Whether that be her daily walks, feeding schedule, and enrichment time. I work full time and still always have time to maintain routine for her. Needless to say that’s how I approach all pets. They appreciate and love routine in their lives so if I can give them that, they seem to be much happier/well behaved/trainable.

About: Hi there! I’m Wendy, an animal lover and dedicated pet caregiver with over 2 years of experience in dog walking, pet sitting (cats as well), and overnight care. I believe every pet deserves a loving and safe environment, and I strive to provide just that for your furry family members. I am currently available over the weekends, weekdays, and nights. Free for summer break, so I will be available for extra hours if need be. I customize my services to fit your pet's needs and routines. You’ll receive daily updates and photos, so you won’t miss your furry friend while you’re away. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, from energetic puppies to calm seniors.

About: I have 5 amazing dogs of my own, 1 pitbull, 2 American Eskimo mini and 2 Pomeranians. I had 2 liter of puppies from my dogs (1st liter was 10 pups, 2nd liter was 5 pups) and was able to raise them well for their furever home. I run a lot, so if your dog needs to exercise, you can count me in. Or simply needs a rest day, or any kind of special needs, I’m your girl. I work full time and have my own babies to care for, but I’m a super dog mom so I’m pretty flexible and prepared for anything. With my own experiences of owning 5 dogs, and raising 15 puppies, I feel like that should speak for itself. I do have a fenced in yard, I love dogs and I want them to be happy while they're with me or their own homes.

“So caring and responsible! Oliver was well taken care of while we were away for 2 weeks.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life - grew up with 2 at all times. Continuously take care of family members dogs during baseball season. I currently work full time, but always home in the early afternoon/evenings. I enjoy going for walks and/or dog parks so they will definitely get exercise. I allow dogs to feel welcome in my home, they are free to roam and relax on the couch/bed. If needed, we can also crate them.

About: Newly single dad of two and one Rottweiler (they all live with mom). Looking for extra income and I’ve been a dog sitter/house sitter for over 15 years in the Twin Cities. I work full time as a church musician so my schedule is extremely flexible. My flexible working schedule can accommodate your pup’s needs. I’m used to multiple walks and feedings during the day. I love spoiling our furry friends and will give them a ton of attention. My neighborhood is near some incredible walking trails and is very quiet in terms of traffic or people being out and about. Fenced in yard. Doggos love it here.

About: I've been described as a "natural" and a "dog whisperer" in shelter environments. I pursue continuous education in towards dogs knowing their might be better methodology. With my current dog we are working towards her Canine Good Citizen Title. Personally I'm working towards an independent Dog Training/Behaviorist certification which will require 200 hours of training experience of dogs that aren't mine over the next 3 years. I've always lived in a single dog home, but looking forward to when I might be able to have a multiple dog home. I'm available on weeknights for in home-training, drop-ins, or walks. I hope to enrich your dogs life by being an extension or substitute to your routine or working with you to develop one. Dog care starts with integrity. You must genuinely want a positive experience for yourself and the dog. I start by assessing their comfort level with me as a person, their general aversion to body handling, movement speed, and sensitivity to verbal interrupters or no reward markers. High rate of praise and treats are a much more efficient and effective tool than alternatives and don't jeopardize the human animal bond.
