“Christian is AWESOME!! He took such good care of our home as he was watching our 2 dogs and our cat- he sent us great updates with photos and videos, the pets all loved him and we loved coming home to everyone happy! I highly highly recommend him and will be using him again in the future!”


“This was our first time using Katie - we were VERY happy and will definitely use her again! We were very comfortable leaving her at our house and with our dog. She was reliable, clean and sent a ton of pictures to make sure we knew Sadie was doing good. Thank you Katie!”

“Oliver came over for a meet/greet prior to staying in my home with my 2 chihuahuas which was very helpful. He took great care of my girls and sent lots of updates and pix. I highly recommend him for any time you need pet care!”


About: Hi! I’m Andrea. I am a lifelong animal lover with years of hands on experience caring for both dogs and cats of all kinds. I’ve raised and loved Great Danes, golden retrievers, chihuahuas, and several cat breeds, so I’m comfortable with everything from big gentle giants to tiny divas. I’ve also personally pet sat for a wide range of breeds and temperaments, including senior pets and animals with behavioral challenges. Whether your pup needs patience and structure or your cat just wants quiet companionship, I’ll make sure they’re safe, happy, and cared for like family. Pet care fits really naturally into my routine! I’m free all day on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays, so I have plenty of time for longer visits, walks, or overnight stays. During the week, I get off work around 4:30 p.m. and can also stop by during my lunch break if needed. I’m flexible, reliable, and happy to work with your schedule to make sure your pets get the care and attention they deserve. When I’m caring for pets in someone else’s home, I do everything I can to make sure they feel safe, loved, and relaxed in their own space. I stick to their usual routine, whether that’s a morning walk, cuddles on the couch, or just quiet company, and follow any instructions you leave to a T. I treat your home with the same care and respect I’d want for mine, and I’ll always keep you in the loop with sweet updates and photos. My goal is to make things as stress-free as possible for both you and your pets while you’re away!

“Hannah was absolutely amazing at taking care of our dog while we were away. She was super respectful, responsive and attentive. Our guy is a foster and she went above and beyond to help and comfort him.”


“Eleanor is an amazing sitter. I was a little nervous leaving my dogs with someone they were not to familiar with. She met up with us a few weeks before and was very nice. While I was away, I received picture and video updates and it made me feel more relaxed and I knew they were in good hands. I would definitely recommend her to friends in the area that are looking for a great dog sitter.”



“Autumn did a wonderful job watching our dog while we were away! She was incredibly responsive and our pup seemed to have a great time. The house looked untouched when we got home and she went above and beyond by bringing in our packages and alerting us to a water issue in our basement after heavy rain. We’re hopeful she will be back to watch our pup in the future.”



“Alex was awesome with my dog! She sent pictures and notes with how things were going regularly. I was so nervous to leave him with a stranger but I was quickly relieved once Alex started sharing pictures. I would recommend her to anyone!”


“I can’t say enough good things about Angels dog sitter, Sandy! She took such amazing care of our dog while we were away. From regular updates, and photos to make sure all of Angels needs were met. Our family felt completely at ease the entire time. Our dog was happy, calm clearly well loved. We highly recommend Sandy, and will absolutely book with her again.”


“Lydia provided excellent care for pup Rizzo. She is a great communicator and sent daily pictures. I highly recommend hiring Lydia to care for your pet. Thank you and we look forward to hiring you again!!”


“Camille provided regular updates throughout her stay. In particular, she reiterated what she had done in terms of feeding, medication, and potty breaks so I felt very confident my instructions were being followed. I also appreciated her frequent photos along with her updates. She was respectful of our home and belongings; nothing is out of place and she even tidied up before she left. I hate leaving my baby, but Camille’s updates kept me from worrying.”


“Nikki was awesome! For the first time, I could actually relax on vacation, knowing my pup was in such good hands. Nikki was very responsive to messages, easy to work with, and very respectful of our home. We got daily updates with pictures, and it was apparent they were getting along great. Nikki was very mindful of keeping Chloe on her regular routine and spoiling her just as we do. 10/10!”


“Paige was great! She was very responsive and accommodating with watching our two dogs. We were grateful that we could relax and enjoy a weekend away knowing that they were in good hands. Will definitely book again when the need comes for dog care next!”


About: I have 2 dogs and am willing and able to house/dog sit. I just moved back to Minnesota from Colorado and can help sit around the west side of the cities. I have over 20 years of experience with dogs. From a puppy to an elder care adult dog. I am used to working with dogs who have special medication and sitting needs. I work remotely and am available to help your puppy feel loved while you are gone. I work from home and am able to take your puppy out every 2-4 hours. I am used to getting up at 5:30 with my own dogs and have experience taking puppies out in the middle of the night as well. I treat the dogs as if they were my own. I’ve had roommates with dogs and loved on them as if they were mine. I will cater to what your pet needs. If they are used to sleeping in bed, they are more then welcome at our home to do so. If I was at another persons home, I would treat it as if it were my OCD mother’s home. Clean and organized. Of course love on the pup is the first and most important thing.

“Nicole watched my spoiled pugs for 2 days and did a great job. They are very needy and it is not easy, but they were very happy. We will be using Nicole again for sure!”


“Erica stayed at our house with our dog for 5 days and was amazing! She sent several updates throughout the day, and we came home to a happy pup! She left the house exactly as we left it, took the trash out to the curb for pickup, and offered to start laundry before she left. Most importantly, she spent the majority of the time at the house with our dog (asked ahead of time if it was ok to leave and run errands one day). We would definitely use her again!”
