Pet Sitting in Sleepy Eye

“I was really nervous about leaving my sweet little guy for the weekend but with Bailey on the job I was able to enjoy my weekend out of town and her photos after each check in showed just how happy he was. I will definitely use her again!”

Kimberly Z.

“She was great! She was on time, sent us lots of pictures, kept us informed on everything, and went above and beyond. Our dog was content and happy when we got home and we are very appreciative.”

Nic P.

“Sydney is amazing, our three dogs love her and always look so happy in all the photos we get. Sydney will definitely be our first stop when looking for someone to care for our furry friends. She has kept us up to date with everything and she is such a sweet human!”

Haley H.

“Callie is such a thoughtful and kind human being. She took care of my elderly kitty while I was away for the weekend. Her care set my mind at ease so I could thoroughly enjoy my time away.”

David B.

“This was our first time using Nicole! She came for a Meet & Greet, went above and beyond for our Critters! This is the first time using a Critter Sitter that we arrived home, and our dogs were CALM! They ran over to us like we had been at the store, not gone for days! I would recommend her 100%”

About: Ever since I was a little girl I have had a dog in my life! I have grown up with Labrador retrievers and currently have my own black lab! I value giving a dog the best life you possibly can. Whether that’s spending time outside, taking them on adventures, or anything active! I hope to bring that same excitement and love when caring for your precious pup:) Often times I am around on weekends and would be willing to walk or check in on your four legged baby! Evenings during the work week would work as well. When it comes to caring for dogs, I value giving them my full attention. From the moment I meet them I want to make sure we are getting outside and being active. I find so much joy in making sure their cup is filled whether that’s us hanging out or going on long walks:)

About: Hi there! I’m currently a veterinary assistant with three years of hands-on experience, and caring for animals truly brings me joy. My goal is to make sure your pets feel safe, loved, and have lots of fun while in my care—whether that means going for a hike, playing fetch, or simply relaxing on the couch (if that’s okay with you!). I’m very comfortable administering medications and supporting any extra medical needs your pet may have, thanks to my background in veterinary care. In our home, we have one friendly pup who loves meeting new furry friends. I’m also a nursing student, but my classes are only a few hours a day, so I’m home most of the time and available to give your pets plenty of attention and affection. I’m happy to keep you updated with as many photos and messages as you’d like—it’s important to me that you feel completely at ease while your pets are with me. Let’s work together to create a warm, safe space where your pets can feel right at home! I have class a few times a week, but very much spend a majority of my time at home, there are quite a few weeks I’m also available! When they are at my home whether for daycare or boarding I take my dog on a 1.5-3 mile walk through our quiet town of Courtland. If weather permits I like to go to Flandrau or Fort Ridgley state park if your dog would enjoy that! I also have a backyard that I would be happy to play fetch in with your pets as well!

About: For over 38 years, I have had animals from cats, dogs, and pigs. I have a dedicated love and passion for animals; everything from walks to cuddles to playtime and treats. I'll make sure your fur babies feel loved, happy, and healthy. I am reliable and compassionate and excited to take care of your babies while you are away. I work in the cities and have a flexible schedule. I will ensure proper and adequate exercise and attention is given to ensure your babies feel loved and attended to during the day. My priority is to ensure the safety so I will first check for fencing and leashing preferences of the family to ensure we are safe. I’ll also seek to understand all relevant home rules as they relate to pets and preferences.

About: First: I take every request serious. I very rarely have to decline stays. Please reach out if you truly feel I’d be a great fit for your animal(s).I am 28 years old, with 1 of my own animals. I have 3 kids of my own who also love animals. We would love to help you with your own. I am a stay at home mom, Just message me if you need care. I’m always here. I love helping others, even on short notice if I can! I take every request serious, very rarely do I decline any offer. Please ONLY reach out if you see this as a good fit for your pet(s). I have a decent yard, not fenced in. I have my own children and 1 of my own pets. We will play outside, get fresh air and of course I will feed them. Willing to bathe if needed as well.

“I can't say enough good things about Ashley! From the moment we met, it was clear how much she genuinely cares about animals, big and small. My dogs and cats took to to her immediately, which was a huge relief while we were away, knowing they were in the best hands! While I was away, Ashley went above and beyond—sending regular updates, photos, and even little notes about their behaviors, meals, and playtime. It gave me such peace of mind knowing my fur babies were not just being cared for, but truly loved. Ashley also went above and beyond to make sure my home was taken care of, as some unexpected issues came up with the AC unit over the long weekend - she should really add "junior HVAC mechanic" to her profile! ;) When I came home, the house was in order as we left it and my pets were calm, happy, and clearly well looked after. It’s such a relief to know I have someone I can completely trust with my pets and my home. If you're looking for someone dependable, loving, and responsible—look no further. Ashley is a true gem. I’ll definitely be booking with Ashley again!”

About: I have taken care of all types of pets, and even own a few myself. At the moment I have 5 horses, 6 dogs, and 1 cat. I know what you’re thinking, wow she’s crazy, but what can i say? I love animals. I’ve always had such a big place in my heart for taking care of animals and eventually want to get a career working with them. I have pet sit for my family members and a few friends for overnight sitting, or just for a few hours during the day. I would love to take care of your munchkins for you!! I am currently enrolled in full online pseo coarse while working my job so I am available everyday during the most important times! (breakfast, supper, and potty time!). I am always up earlier in the morning to take care of all my my animals. When I take my dogs out to the bathroom they are on a leash, same with going on walks with them. My cat is an outside cat and he will usually go on my walks with me when I take my dogs. I wake up early in the mornings to feed all my animals and take them potty, same thing for night time. Usually i’ll try and let my pets out to the bathroom every 30-40 minutes just to be safe. And my dogs love playing outside while i throw a ball for them. Quality time and snuggling is an everyday must!!

About: I have grown up with dogs from old age to puppies. Our family always has dogs around, big or small! I love them all tremendously. I grew up with labs, bichon-poodle, GSPs and wiener dogs. My job is very flexible. It is a work from home but also a mix of out in the field. I can pick my own schedule so whatever fits for me and your pupper I am happy to cater to their/your needs! I have a two-bedroom apartment that is large enough for dogs. I can bring them outside for walks, to the bathroom and just to play. If you prefer a fenced in I can take them to a dog park. I love to cuddle and let the dogs on the couch/bed. I am very attentive to what you prefer their schedule to be.

About: I’ve grown up with all different breeds and ages of dogs. I understand that all dogs have different personalities and their own traits that make them unique. I love getting to know their different personalities!! I currently work full time as a nurse but I have many days off during the week and weekends. My schedule varies slightly from week to week. But when I’m off, I’m usually spending time at home! I have my own fur baby who gets along great with other dogs and loves to have company! I allow him free rein of the house if I have to leave for any reason. But I do have a kennel and am able to gate off areas of my house if needed! My family has a farm place about a mile away with a large fenced in area that my dog loves to run in. I also love going for walks and cuddling on the couch and watching movies with my pup.

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 currently have two cats. We’re getting a puppy very soon! I love dogs. I enjoy dog walking and playing outside with them, the most! But I also really also love cats and their personalities! Ready to help take care of your pet needs :) I do currently work full time but around those hours, I’d be happy to spend time with and take long walks with your fur babies. I certainly can offer your fur baby a cozy home and lots of land to play and run on, out here in the country! :)

About: I grew up on a farm so taking care of animals come second nature to me. I just love being around animals, they are just the cutest things ever. Just recently quit my job to open more free time. Monday through Friday my schedule is open. I’m also available every others weekend will be busy the other two weekends during the month with my daughter Making sure I give all pets enough attention, I treat every pet as if they where my children. The safety and well being of your pet is my number One responsibility.

About: I’ve had animals in my house for basically my whole life. I grew up with all kinds of animals in my home. I’ve gotten puppies that I had to train, and even older dogs that needed a refresher. I’ve always had birds, cats, and dogs! I’m available full-time and I will always try my best to accommodate your needs! Animal care comes first and I will make sure your pet gets everything they need while you’re away. I will always give 100% and treat your baby like my own. I will be respectful and responsible when in your home. I’ll follow any directions you give about how to care for your furry friend :)

About: I am home FULL TIME, semi-retired remotely employed, your dogs will NEVER be left alone in my care. I have had 2-3 rescue dogs under my care for the last 20 years. I work remotely, am semi-retired, and in an emergency Fairfax has a local Vet Clinic 4 blocks away. I am always home and your pup will be safely cared for. I have a 5' chain link fenced area with privacy material, less stress on dogs, NEVER left outside. Your pup will go out my kitchen door through attached garage to the fenced area. I can also babygate dogs off separately (carpeted den) so that your pup feels safe. I don't use crates but can accommodate yours. My pups go outside every 2-3 years so pottying is no issue. There is a new Vet in Fairfax, 4 blocks away in an emergency situation. I DO NOT smoke, DO NOT drink, have an extremely well-cared for home and know it is difficult to travel or take day trips especially if you do NOT want to board your pet risking illness or injuries. Boarding facilities can cause kennel cough, terror and dogs feeling abandoned. I occasionally travel and bring my dogs with me on any road trips and know how hard it is to find someone you trust with your pup. I can text or video your pup's stay to ensure you have constant contact with him/her.
