“Lindy and Seth made our first experience with Rover great! Luke had a great time, and it put our mind at ease not having to kennel him, but let him stay in his own environment. Would recommend Lindy and Seth to anyone. Thanks to both of you!”

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 love animals! I have a sweet collie dog, two large cats, and a 23 yr old ball python I’ve had since grade school (we’re surprised he’s still around too!). I’m experienced with traditional pets, rodents, and reptiles :) I am a 80% remote worker - if I’m not home, I’m traveling for work, which I mark off on the calendar as unavailable - so if you can book me, I am around for your fur babies throughout the day! Whether your pet is energetic, elderly, or a little shy, I’m happy to follow their routines and give them lots of love. I’m also comfortable with medications, special diets, and senior pet needs. I treat every home with respect, and every animal like family. ⸻ 🐶 Dogs I love all dogs and am happy to hang with your pup at your home or visit for long walks. I do 3+ miles with my own dog and look forward to having different buddies with me on my walks. 🐱 Cats If I’m sitting for your cat, I will give them all the love or space that they need. My cats are the mascots of my home, and I absolutely love meeting new kitties. I will be available for play, attention, and cuddles, or simply being someone in the house so that they’re not lonely. —Unique Family Members— 🐭 Rodents I’ve had 6 pet rats in my life and think they’re some of the most wonderful animals: smart, affectionate, and full of personality (I even broke a toe playing tag with one when I was little!). I’m happy to care for any small critter and always consider them part of the family. I also have experience with hamsters, gerbils, and guinea pigs. 🦎 Reptiles Although I only have Rex right now (my 23 yr old ball python), I’ve also owned a variety of lizards, amphibians, and feeder animals throughout my life. From a bearded dragon (Watson) to a leopard (Geico) and crested gecko (Sylvester), I’m familiar with preparing collard green salads, dusting crickets, maintaining humidity and temperature, and ensuring overall habitat health. I’ve ordered crickets in bulk—so I know they require care too. While Rex is currently fed frozen rodents, I’m also comfortable managing live prey if your reptile/s require them. As a full-time remote worker, I’m available throughout the day. I take regular breaks to go for walks, give attention, or check in on animals staying with us. My mornings and evenings are flexible, so I can match your pet’s normal schedule. I let your fur babies tell me how they want to be approached and handled. I don’t force myself on any creature, those both with fur and scales.
About: I had a dog since I was five years old and sadly had to say goodbye a year ago. I have been through all the stages, from puppy to senior. Exercise is important to all dogs at any stage, and I pay special attention to the things my dog really enjoyed. She loved fetching sticks from the lake, trips to the dog park, and hikes by Minihaha falls. I treated her as if she were my best friend. Safety is also a priority of mine. I realized she was the type that would not know when to quit so I made sure to keep an eye on how much time of vigorus vs mild exercise/playtime. Understanding her personality is also a part of safety so knowing what/who she was comfortable being around was important on deciding the plan for outings. I am very patient, focused and loving. I will treat your dog as if it were my own! I am a graduated high school senior, leaving for college in mid-August. I have no other committments this summer and looking to earn some extra money and have fun while doing it. Although I do not have a fenced in yard, I will accompany your dog by leash outside for bathroom breaks, play time or exercise. There are no other pets in the house or small children. I can easily follow any instructions on any special requirements your dog may require!
About: Hi! My name is Nikki and I’ve been an animal lover my whole life. I grew up rescuing animals from the streets of Puerto Rico with my mom so I’m no stranger to bottlers and potty training. My husband and I love animals and would love to have the opportunity to take care of yours. We have two amazing golden retrievers who are spoiled (really spoiled) and two kitties who think they are the kings of the house. Our home had 1.4 acres and a fenced in area as well. They have lots of space to roam and play. We are home all day so they will always have someone to take care of them. Our puppies are inside and we let them out as many times as they need. We are also available for walks and drop in visits. We have 1.4 acres and a fenced in area for the puppies to play. Our cats are inside and have lots of space to roam. When on walks we are always communicating and sending updates if needed. We’ll keep your babies safe just like if they were our own.
“Regina is a wonderful dog walker! We had a last-minute issue while I was recovering from foot surgery and needed someone to walk our little Coco for a few days. Thankfully, Regina was available to step in, and she has been fabulous! She is terrific with Coco, and I'm sure she is Coco's new best friend.”

“Margie is the absolute best! She walked our dog for three weeks, an hour each day, right after we had a baby. She is super communicative, friendly, and helpful. Undoubtedly the highlight of our dog’s day was when she would show up. I would hire her 100 times over. Thanks for helping our family when we needed it most!”

About: I have experience in taking care of elderly dogs and young pups. I have trained my dogs and other dogs to sit, down, wait and shake. I live in the Lake Minnetonka area. I have a Chihuahua/Terrier/Maltese Mix and he is 3 years old. I can provide the need for walks and drop in visits and house sitting. I am available during the early morning and late afternoon and evening any day of the week. I work at a school in the Minnetonka School District. I am available all holidays and summer break. I request to have clear instructions for walking/sitting dogs for harnesses, leashes, feeding, and toy preferences. I have a vet that I would use for emergencies.
About: I grew up in a multi pet family (dogs and cats). As I got older, I took more responsibility for caring for my family’s pets. Last summer, I did several at home, overnight, several day dog sittings in my home town in Ohio. From these experiences, I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, nervous dogs, and dogs that require you to give them medication! Additionally, I am a certified volunteer at the humane society which required about 10 hours of training. I helped out at the closest shelter to me for about 2 1/2 years. I work full-time with a regular 8-hour schedule, so I’m available to care for pets before and after work. I can let them out in the morning and again as soon as I get home. I only work 15 minutes away from my care radius so I can easily take care of your pet! I’m also free in the evenings to spend time with them, take them for a walk, or just give them lots of attention and company! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize keeping their routine as familiar and comfortable as possible. I follow your instructions closely when it comes to feeding, walks, medication, and any other preferences your pet may have. I know how important consistency is for animals, so I aim to mirror what they’re used to at home. I’m also very respectful of your space—I treat your home with care and keep things clean and tidy. You can count on regular updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing while you’re away.
About: We are caretakers for all our family and friends fur babies when they need help. For hours or days. We lost our golden doodle to cancer and miss having another dog around but aren’t ready to commit to our own yet. Let us spoil yours! Between the four of us we typically have great flexibility in our schedule. We do work outside of the home so the pups need to be able to withstand 3-4 hours alone. We have a large fenced in yard where they can roam freely or play with balls and sticks or just lay on the sun if they’re lazy 😊
About: I foster dogs of all ages from Spots Last Stop and have owned my Australian cattle dog/lab mix since I rescued him in Florida 5 years ago. I have trained him extensively myself, with over 25+ commands including being off leash trained, knowing his lefts and rights, and “protect” position. I have years of pet sitting experience, including watching my grandparents foster dogs (up to 5 large breeds at a time, including 180 pound big boy mastiffs!) ***Please reach out if you need last minute bookings or accommodations during the week, things may be arranged*** I work full time in project management for a biotech company but only live 3 minutes from my office and have great flexibility with coming and going as needed. I also am available most weekends and can discuss longer trips as needed I have a friendly resident dog who has done well with every foster I’ve had. He is very good at respecting a dogs space and will not instigate or initiate play. I do not have a fenced yard, but with a high energy breed, I do walk him on average 2-4 miles a day around the neighborhood or through trails and practice sniff work outside and inside to keep him exercised and stimulated and your dog is welcome to come along 😊 I can also do in-your-home sitting if they need more one-on-one time or do not get along with other dogs!
