About: I’m always asking friends and family if they need someone to watch their animals or even just take them for a walk because I love animals! Of all shapes and sizes. I am currently working from home so I’ll be able to spend all day with your pal! I can let them out, feed, cuddle as needed. I live in a house with plenty of room to roam and a great window view for your animal! I do not have a fenced in yard so letting dogs out would be supervised on a leash.

Breanna took wonderful care of my dog Nola. Nola is currently on medication, and I appreciated that Breanna was both experienced and comfortable with giving her her medicine. She sent updates and photos while she was here. You can tell she has a great love for dogs! I will definitely have her watch Nola again!

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 husband's family raises German shepherds, and I grew up with rescue cats and dogs of all breeds! We currently have a Golden Retriever dog and a House cat. For drop-in visits or dog-walking: I am a teacher, so early mornings, 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 bedtime (after my baby goes to bed around 7pm). 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. While we are sleeping or away at work, puppies are put into either a kennel or a playpen to keep both our home and the puppies safe. While we are home and able to keep an eye on them, they have access to the house for playing, snuggling, or eating their meals. Water is always available, and we go outside frequently to exercise or relieve ourselves. We do have a line outside as an option for dogs to get attached to if they are a winter breed (i.e., husky) that desires to sit in the snow.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life, so being around pups feels like home to me. I love getting outside, watching movies and lounging, and walks! My goal is for every dog to feel safe, happy, and cared for. I am in my last stretch of my masters program at MSU - I graduate in July 2026! I have an internship Mon-Wed that requires me to be on site in St. Peter from 8am-4pm. Other than occasional in person classes, I am very flexible to fit you and your pups schedule! I only do in-home pet sitting because dogs are way more relaxed and happy in the spaces they already know and love. When I stay in a client’s home, I treat it with respect, follow the routines they already have, and make sure their pups feel safe, cozy, and cared for. I build trust by keeping communication open, asking questions if I need to, and making sure caregivers feel supported knowing their animals are in good hands. I joined this app because I genuinely just love dogs and wanted a way to spoil and hang with pupperz while their caregivers are away!

This was a first for me using this resource and Mandy was absolutely amazing to work with! She texted pictures and gave me little updates throughout her time with our dog. On top of hanging out with our dog she also helped feed our guinea pig and our lizard. I will definitely be using her again in the future and encourage anyone else to too. For an added bonus, she even brought in our amazing delivery boxes so they didn’t sit outside! Again, she was really great and I would recommend her to everyone.

About: Pet Care Experience: I’ve cared for pets of all kinds—from energetic puppies to gentle seniors—and I pride myself on giving each animal the same love and attention they’d get from their family. I’m experienced with administering medications, following special diets, and providing calm, reassuring care for anxious pets. Whether it’s a long walk, playtime, or quiet companionship, I adapt to each pet’s unique personality and needs. What Sets Me Apart: I focus on building trust through consistency, patience, and clear communication. I take time to learn each pet’s routine and preferences, making sure they feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. My background in handling multiple pets at once and caring for animals with special needs means you can relax knowing your pets are in capable hands. Pet care is a regular part of my daily routine. I plan my days around feeding times, walks, and check-ins to make sure each pet gets the attention and consistency they need. I’m flexible with scheduling and can accommodate afternoon, or evening visits depending on your pet’s routine. Whether it’s daily drop-ins, overnight care, or weekend stays, I make sure your pet’s comfort and routine always come first. If I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat their space with the same respect I’d want for my own. I follow all care instructions closely, keep things tidy, and provide updates so you always know how your pet is doing. Whether it’s sticking to training routines, administering medication, or giving extra cuddles, I adapt to each pet’s personality and comfort level.

About: I’ve been caring for pets longer than I can remember - from helping grandma with her horses and barn cats to spoiling and training our own dachshund puppy and two amazing kitties - I am well equipped for any situation. Some background for me: I was born and raised in Alaska! There I took care of cats of varying abilities/disabilities/age, dogs of all sizes and abilities/disabilities/age, and fish! There’s been instances where I have stayed over a month to look over a special needs cat, and dug my car out after a heavy snow to make sure a hyper puppy gets a good hike in! I’m adaptable and communicative - you can be sure that I’ll send you plenty of photos and videos of your pet while you’re gone! Now I’m here in Minnesota to finish college, start life with my new husband, and take care of the pets in Southern Minnesota! I’m currently still a student! But I have Tuesdays, Thursdays, and the weekends for the most part completely open! Otherwise, I will make sure to check in on your pets between classes to ensure they don’t go more than four hours alone. I can’t have a pet in my apartment right now 😭 but when I’m back home in Alaska, we had a fenced area for our dog while she was still with us, and we have two full-time indoor cats. We love to spoil our animals - lots of love, kindness, and a patient environment. Just positive reinforcement and steady routines over here!

About: Ive been known to walk a few dogs and hunt cats down, haha. More about being around dogs than $, etc. helping people, etc, etc I do long jobs out of town and drive Uber Eats, so I make my own custom schedule. I may be available at times when you need or want a caretaker. I follow custom instructions, and do what's healthy and right for your dog (s), including filling water, food, going outside, playing ,and paying attention to dogs.

We highly recommend Sydney! She stayed with our two dogs for three nights and was great at communicating with us when needed. She also provided pics and updates. Our flight home was a late night flight and we knew the dogs would be okay for the amount of time we planned for them to be alone, but she went above and beyond and stopped back to let them out an extra time. The dogs seemed content when we got home and I think they would give her two paws up 🐾 Thank you Sydney!

About: Hi there! I'm a proud dog mom to a sweet Mini Goldendoodle named Finley. Growing up, I was surrounded by animals and loved helping care for them — my passion for animals has been with me ever since! I truly adore all animals and would treat yours like my own! I work from home, which gives me plenty of flexibility to provide attentive care throughout the day. I have a full hour for lunch and am finished with work by 5 PM, so your pet will have lots of attention, playtime, and love. When I visit, I focus on helping your dog feel safe and comfortable by following their routine, using a calm, gentle approach, and letting them warm up to me at their own pace.

Onnika did a great job with our 3yr old great dane. Despite his size and timmidness she was able to win him over and make sure all of his needs and wants were met (cuddles attention and medications) while giving us updates throughout the weekend. He had a blast playing and going on a walk. She even picked up his mess in the front yard which we really appreciated when we came home. 10/10 well be requesting again!
