About: I have been around pets pretty much my whole life. I grew up with the dog name snoophy. When I came to college I started volunteering at the animal shelter where I volunteered with cats and dogs and helped foster cats and kittens. I help friends and medical school classmates watch their dogs and cats and just love being around animals in general! I am currently a full time medical student. I can be flexible but am more open on weekends. Love going on walks and playing with pets! I enjoy spending time with pets whether it’s playing with them, going on walks, or having their companionship around. Willing to just stop by or spend time.

About: With over a decade of hands-on pet care experience, animals have always been at the heart of my life. I’ve been the proud owner of rescues since 2014, starting with Marley—a loyal Bloodhound-Lab mix—and more recently adopting a spirited Bloodhound-Weimaraner in 2022, whom I’ve worked with extensively on training and behavior. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. From welcoming a pup into my home for 14 out of 17 months while her dad was deployed, to helping another family by watching their dog during Blue Angels performances, I understand the trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care—and I honor that trust with genuine love, attention, and consistency. My experience isn’t limited to dogs, either. I grew up working at a horse stable, where I learned the discipline and responsibility that comes with animal care at an early age. Whether it’s a high-energy pup, a senior companion, or a rescue with special needs, I’m here to give them the same care I give my own. I work part time remotely and have a flexible schedule that I create. I can work my schedule around your pet and what they need. I would care for your pet in their home environment based on the established schedule of them. Keeping pets comfortable in their environment is something I strive to do.

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and currently care for my own energetic 1-year-old pup. I’m experienced with all ages and love giving dogs the attention, care, and playtime they need. Your pet will be treated like family! As a bartender who mostly works nights, my mornings and afternoons are wide open — perfect for walks, playtime, and check-ins. I love being outside and walking, so spending that time with dogs makes it even better. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, and I enjoy giving each pup the attention they deserve. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I focus on keeping them safe, happy, and comfortable. I follow their usual routine as closely as possible—walks, feeding times, play, and downtime. In my home, pets have a cozy, dog-friendly space with plenty of love and supervision (plus a playful pup to keep them company if they enjoy dog friends). In a client’s home, I respect their space and make sure their pet feels secure and cared for while you're away.

Alexis has been quick to respond, very friendly and wants the best for your pet. We’ve had a good experience with her and know that we can trust her with our puppy! She does great at communicating when we ask about the day or need to tell her something that wasn’t previously discussed.

About: I've personally owned animals my entire life. I've raised 3 dogs in the past and currently own qthat absolutely love other animals and people! I also have 3 cats that are all extremely friendly and love new things. I currently work at an animal shelter working with dogs, cats, small mammals, birds, reptiles, and amphibians. I have experience with friendly animals, reactive animals, and shy animals. I'm very skilled at giving medications as I have to do it daily for my job. My schedule is very flexible and I'm also good in medical cases with animals. I don't have a degree in veterinary sciences, but work with strange cases daily and have a close connection with vet techs. I'm excited to open my heart to new animals! I currently work part time in the mornings and can stop in before my shift to do a check in, potty breaks, and feeding. Once I'm off in the afternoon, I can do more check-ins and walks. In the afternoons, I can stick around longer to spend more time with them. I have experience with positive reinforcement and am also okay with using dog crates if the need is there. I'm experienced with different types of harnesses and collars as well and have worked with dogs with many different allergies.

About: I've always been passionate about dogs and can hardly remember a time when I didn't have one of these amazing, loyal companions by my side. I've been dog sitting for friends and family members for years, and I enjoyed it so much that I decided to branch out so that I can meet even more fur friends. I also do dog training/owner coaching, and I believe it's never too late to teach a dog new tricks. My schedule has changed where I no longer work remotely, which means my availability is limited. However, that hasn't changed my love of dog sitting, and so I will still watch my fur friends on a part time basis, schedule permitting. I have a huge back yard with a 6 ft privacy fence for ample room to run and play and even a doggie pool to splash around in to stay cool. My house is a couple blocks down from the trail for my fur friends who love to go for walks to get some of that extra energy out.

About: Hi! My name is Madison, and I’m an experienced and dependable pet lover with a lifelong passion for caring for animals. I currently have one cat of my own, but I grew up with both big and small dogs, as well as indoor and outdoor cats—so I’m very comfortable around pets of all shapes, sizes, and temperaments. While I now work as a server and bartender, I’ve always made time for animals. During college, I volunteered regularly at the local animal shelter, where I walked a wide variety of dogs. That experience taught me a lot about leash and harness handling, and gave me the skills to confidently care for dogs with different energy levels and personalities. Whether you’re looking for someone to walk your pup, check in on your cat, or just give your pets some extra love while you’re away, I’m here to help. I treat every animal like my own and take pride in providing safe, attentive, and reliable care. Looking forward to meeting you and your furry family! Currently I work part time, which does give me more time to help out with your babies! My only “guaranteed” times off are Tuesday afternoons and Sundays, which is when I could be available for recurring bookings. Otherwise, I get my schedule for the next week on Friday afternoons, which means I can book one-times about a week out. Every pet in my care is treated like family - with kindness, attention, and genuine love. Whether I’m on a walk or watching them at home, I follow their routines closely and make sure they feel safe, happy, and understood. I’m big on cuddles, playtime, and keeping their environment clean and calm. I pay attention to each pet’s personality and needs, always making sure they’re comfortable and cared for like they’re my own.

About: I've been an animal lover for as long as I can remember! I currently have 2 cats and 1 puppy so I'm used to the chaos of puppies and kittens as well as animals who may need more time, patience, and love to warm up to new humans. I am available for both Thanksgiving & Christmas dates in the Twin Cities area! I'm a law student so I have a very open and flexible schedule and am willing to jump in whenever needed, however I can help! I am happy to follow any directions you leave—I know I leave excessively long notes when leaving my furbabies with a petsitter. I absolutely love animals so will definitely prioritize play and pets if they're receptive!

About: Animals have always stuck out to me. Dogs specifically have been a shoulder to cry on and a warm furry pillow to rest my head on and over the years I’ve learned so many things about them. I’ve always found companionship with any animal whether or not they’ve personally been mines or someone else’s. Dogs specifically have changed the way I treat other animals, people, and have given me a new perspective on life. I plan to have a very big family and it includes multiple kinds of dogs. I treat all animals with respect and love. I do not love anything the way that I love dogs. If you’re looking for a sitter with a great personality and a loving spirit for all four legged things- I’m your girl. I am currently a stay at home mom looking for lots to do! I have all the necessary tools to make sure your pet has a cozy stay! I have a spacious home and living area and my neighborhood has plenty of dog friendly activities. I have a 4 year old who is a friend to all and he will be sure to keep your dog company as well!

About: I have had a dog almost all my life and they have always been a passion. This summer I got the opportunity to volunteer at a dog boarding facility and learned how to care for dogs from puppy to senior and aid in medications they might need. I also got to work with the trainer and can help teach basic commands to dogs. I work full time as a Remote Medical Quality Specialist worker so I can be with your pet 24/7 if needed for your pets care! I will take the pet for walks, depending on weather will determine the length as well as the pet. I would also be willing to wash the pet for the client and help out in any way I could with them.

About: Hi! I’m Teagan. I’ve grown up around pets my whole life and have always been the go-to person for friends and family when they need someone they can trust. I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all ages, and I’ve also helped foster sick or recovering pets, so I’m patient, gentle, and confident with special care routines. I truly love animals and will treat your fur baby like my own — whether that’s getting energy out on a walk, hanging out for cozy cuddle time, or making sure they feel comfortable and safe while you’re away. One fun bonus: I love taking high-quality photos of pets! I’m always happy to take a few free photos of your furry friend during our visit so you can see what they’re up to and have some cute memories. 🐾💛 I can’t wait to meet your bestie! I’m a full-time student at Iowa and work part-time remotely, plus I nanny just a few hours each week. Because of that, my schedule is very flexible and I’m usually only away for short periods at a time. I’m also able to work from home, so I can easily spend plenty of time with your pet and keep them company throughout the day. Your pet will get lots of attention and won’t be left alone for long. My apartment is quiet, safe, and very pet-friendly. My room has plenty of space for crates, beds, toys, and play time. I’m careful about safety (always leashed walks, doors secured, routines followed) and I’ll make sure your pet feels comfortable and loved while they’re here.
