House Sitting in Saint Peter

About: I have grown up my whole life with many different cats and dogs. So I have experience with all sizes of dogs, and all moods of cats. My husbands family raises German shepherds, and I grew up with rescue cats and dogs of all breads! We currently have two cats of our own, but can’t get a dog right now as we are renting our home. I am a teacher, so afternoons/evenings and weekends are my primary availability. During the weekdays I can do drop ins early before school, after school, walks after school, and of course before bed time (after my baby goes to bed). On the weekends I am much more available. We do go to church on Sunday mornings, but I can still go to early morning and afternoon/evening services. For holidays, I am a bit more available as we don’t have school. Because I am renting my home, I cannot do care in my own home yet. Care at your home varies depending on your pet, their needs, and your instructions.

About: My career is in payroll, but my heart is with dogs. I grew up with them since birth and I've fostered and adopted 3 of my own over the years. They are family! My work experience with taking care of others' pups is through dog boarding/daycare facilities and I am very comfortable handling all sizes and breeds. Thank you in advance for trusting me to take care of your dog(s) like I do my own. I am available at least 2 weekends per month for house sitting and/or drop ins for walks, potty and feeding times, and cuddles. Some weekdays I do have flexibility for drop ins if needed. I often work remote and can flex my schedule around my daytime job. I am a safe caretaker when it comes to pets, ensuring leash and fence security if applicable. I am comfortable with crating and also giving medications.

“Hannah was great with our two big boys! She adapted quickly to the needs of our dogs and was so patient with our one nervous boy. She is a great communicator, providing consistent and thorough updates. I fully recommend Hannah for your pet care needs!”

A little about me i have been a big animal lover since i can remember, i’ve owned all sorts of animals ( Lizard’s, Bunnie’s, Hermit crab’s ,dogs/cats, ect.) i also have a good amount of experience with dogs outside of my own pets, i worked in a dog daycare and also did dog walking in the past. Im super flexible on time and short notice and everything :) I am working part time currently so i have lots of free time to spend time and play with your pups and cats! and I'm available for overnight pet sitting on weekends and weekdays :) We have a dog park area we normally go too about 2-3 blocks from me its a great fenced area to play in, i live in a more quiet area too so a good place to go walking :) and I currently live in an apartment so i do not have my own yard.

About: I am able to do any pet of any size! I have been pet sitting/dog walking for 7 years now and have worked in animal resuce. Since I have worked with animals of all sizes and breeds, there is not an animal I would turn down care for. I am also great if you have a lot of pets and are looking for someone who can handle them all! I am familiar and comfortable with animals that have special needs. I have experience with behavioral issues, medications, blood glucose testing for animals with diabetes, and other special needs. I also can accommodate longer stays such as vacations or work travel! I have a lot of flexibility and a mode of transportation so I'm also open to the surrounding areas or if you live out of town. I am a full time student but have a lot of flexibility! I have multiple no class days where I am available and can do drop-ins between classes on days I have them. I am great at accommodating any needs your animals may have. I believe that all animals have unique needs and should be prioritized to make sure they are as comfortable as possible! I am very familiar with animal body language and am extremely patient/willing to work with every animals quirks. They are just like people and have unique personalities!

About: I’ve grown up with pups and have lots of experience with animals. I am an active person so walks and jogs in the park are some of my favorite things to do! And of course lots of pets, snuggles, and love!! I am a mental health support specialist with 6am-2pm, or 2pm-10pm shifts. I am not full time so my schedule is always different as well as weekends!! I only offer staying in clients homes. I do this because dogs are a lot more comfortable in their own space that they are familiar with. I’m in my masters program at MSU, so unfortunately it’s not the time for me to have my own dog. That’s why I joined this app, so I can share my love for pupperz with those who need the assistance!!!

“Maxim took great care of our 2 year old German Shepherd. He is quite high energy and can be reactive towards other dogs, but he ensured he was well exercised and cared for nonetheless!”

About: I am a dog mom of a sweet Mini Goldendoodle named Finley so I have experience. Growing up, I had a lot of animals that I helped care for. I absolutely adore all animals!

“Ally was great at following detailed instructions. She went above and beyond to take care of extra animals at the house and went out of her way to do an extra visit when our plane was delayed. She took great care of our animals. Thank you!”

About: I've grew up surrounded by dogs, having both big and small dogs my entire childhood. I have experience dog-sitting and caring for pups of all sizes as well. I am passionate about ensuring each dog feels loved, safe, and comfortable. Whether it's playing, walking, or just keeping them company, I truly enjoy spending quality time with dogs and creating a positive experience for them. This summer, I’m focusing on smaller jobs to balance my commitment to the dance team at the University of Minnesota Duluth. I’ll be home during certain weeks, but I also have availability on random days. Feel free to reach out, and I’ll let you know if I’m available! Although I don't have a fenced-in yard, I understand the importance of always keeping dogs leashed when outside at my home. I am also comfortable using a crate whenever necessary. With a solid understanding of dog behavior, I follow instructions carefully to provide the best care for dogs, whether at my home or elsewhere.

Im great about bathroom breaks and walks! When im caring for someones pet I plan my schedule around their needs! Any special requests? Just ask, ill do what i can to accommodate!

“Drew was a wonderful sitter at our home for our Australian Shepard, Smuggler. He communicated with us throughout the weekend and sent pictures. All our interactions with Drew have been positive. We would highly recommend him and will use him in the future.”

“Jason is amazing. He really understands dogs and is kind and patient with the dogs and the owners. He is very professional and incredibly flexible with people's schedules. I plan on using him for dog walking, doggy dare care, and more overnight stays in the future. It's also great to have someone like Jason in the St. Peter area. We kept in contact when my Alex spent the night, texting and sending pictures and videos of Alex throughout the day, which was a real comfort to me because this is the first time Alex stayed with someone. I couldn't recommend him more highly. Use him once and you'll never want to use anyone else!”

About: I've cared for pets since I was born. My home has always had dogs and cats, and I have experience also caring for rabbits, snakes, and fish. When I went to college, I began frequently pet sitting for my mom's miniature schnauzer and pit bull where I learned to manage the needs of pets with a full class-load and two part-time jobs. Since moving home after graduation, I have spent some much needed quality time with my pets, including walks and trips to the dog park. Whether its a weekend out of town, a week-long family trip, or a mid-day walk, I would be thrilled to spend time with your furry friends and provide them the highest quality care. I am currently in the job search, so I have a very open and flexible schedule. My commitments outside of Saint Peter are infrequent and irregular as of now, so I can easily take last-minute bookings! My experience with pets of all ages makes me a wonderful fit to be your pet-sitter. I'm knowledgable about pets behaviors and comfortable dealing with the not-so-comfortable stuff. I am organized and can manage pets with varying needs. When it comes to your pet and your home, I will respect the instructions you give me and accommodate your pets needs.
