“Cassandra did a great job taking care of Banjo for two nights. Communication was excellent (photos and videos, along with messages about how he was doing), and Cassandra was willing to accommodate drop-off and pickup requests to fit my schedule for the weekend. I have always been apprehensive about boarding my dogs at a kennel if I have to go out of town for more than one night. Cassandra made Banjo feel at home and kept him in a normal, relaxed environment and routine.”

“Anne truly cares about the pets that stay with her. She provided frequent updates and sent lots of photos, which I really appreciated as it was my first time leaving Winona overnight. I would highly recommend Anne to any person in need of a pet sitter!!”

“Allison and Nick were so great, you can tell how much they love animals!! We got lots of good updates and they took such good care of our pup. Their big backyard with a tall fence is perfect. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone!”

“Natalie has looked after my dog for a few days at a time the past couple of months when I was on long shifts. My dog was always so excited to go back to see Natalie, where he was welcomed and loved as one of the family. She is safety conscious, very good at communicating and at managing my dog's dietary and medical issues When my dog needs looking after, Natalie is my first choice.”

“Excellent care! My cat and dog stayed with Tiffany for a few days, and my dog came back smelling like lavender, which was super nice. She took very good care of my fur babies and was a strong communicator through and through. I highly recommend!”

“Joscelyn did an amazing job watching my two boxers. They almost didn't want to come home afterwards. We'll definitely be back as long as she'll have them. Her kids played well with the dogs and they had access to her fenced in back yard and inviting dog-friendly home. Thanks for all the great care you gave my dogs while they were with you. They are in great spirits and seem like they just went on a little vacation. Looking forward to future bookings.”
“Heather took excellent care of our two dogs. It was their first night away from home and they were relaxed and happy when we came to pick them up. We’ve already booked their next stay with her. I’m happy to recommend her services!”
“Stephanie was beyond phenomenal, it was my second time using her services and you couldn’t ask for anyone more caring and thoughtful, I traveled overseas and always gave me options for updates incase I didn’t have service. She also got my baby a birthday treat and made sure to love my babies like her own. From the bottom of my heart thank you for keeping them safe, loved, and happy”

About: I have experience in caring for senior and disabled dogs, especially blind ones. I have also reared and house trained two puppies to adulthood and are still with my family to this day. They can walk unleashed (never with your babies tho!) and even protective commands. I am currently homebound so your doggy will have my full undivided attention! I recently lost my senior baby and would enjoy a companion on walks in my neighborhood and in nearby parks. I always have leashes and body vest on the door at the ready for any potty breaks and walks, no fence no problem. Stairs and basements will be blocked off all times to ensure safety and rooms will always remain closed. For house guests, we have an end table crate to ensure visibility when I am just resting. There are also have regular metal crates and a spare room dedicated to any overwhelmed doggy.
“Rebecca did a wonderful job providing loving care to my Shih Tzu. She sent to me daily updates and photos; it was so reassuring to know my pup was in the hands of an attentive caregiver.”

“Once again a 5 star experience! This time Kristen watched our puppy over our wedding weekend and it was so nice having him well taken care of and still given updates even if we were too busy to reply!”

“My pup slept all night after I got her back so I know she had fun playing with the other pups. Good contact during the stay with photos. Happy with my visit and last minute availability.”

“Jennifer has sat my 17 lb Eskimo dog mix twice now, and each time she has been easy to work with, communicative, friendly, and professional. I'm really grateful that she's been available when I'm in town visiting family.”

“Wonderful and attentive care givers for my senior dog. I received daily updates, they were perfect! We were afraid she wouldn’t want to come home, she received so much love and attention!”

“April and the kids did great with Gus. We like her location to be able to walk him in the Pufferbelly. Gus stayed for the weekend and came back tired. She provided pictures and assurance. We will use her again.”

“Mindi did a great job. Gizmo needed extra care due to his age she handled it like a pro! Gizmo needed meds and used an inhaler and had an ear infection at the time. I highly recommend Mindi she is very attentive and takes special care when dog sitting!”

“Violet always has the best time when she goes to Agnathas home! She comes back exhausted, from all the play time she gets in while there! Agnatha loves to spoil Violet as well, she snuggles her and lets her on the sofa! I was worried Violet wouldn’t want to come back home with us. It is a nice relief knowing our pup is getting the best care while we are away!”

“We loved boarding our Everitt with Cory. He was very in tune and experienced with dogs and how they act and was understanding of our young dog’s behavior. When we picked her up we could tell she was well cared for and happy with her stay. We would use him again and would recommend him to anybody that is looking for somebody”

I have always been apprehensive about boarding my dogs at a kennel if I have to go out of town for more than one night.

I had a great experience with this dog sitter. He was very kind and accommodating, especially since my booking was very last minute. He still made the time to come get and take care of my dog, which I really appreciated. He also sent me pictures while she was with him, which reassured me that she was safe and doing well. This was my first time being away from my dog, so I was a little nervous, but he made the experience much easier and more comfortable for me. It was such a relief to know she was safe and even having fun. Overall, the service was excellent and I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to watch their pet.

She was great with my dog, super communicative, sent pics/vids, and was flexible when my plans changed. Being new to town, I was nervous leaving my dog with a stranger, but she made the whole thing smooth and my dog seemed to enjoy his time with her. Definitely would recommend!

Thank you Eliza!! Our pups were so happy and calm when we picked them up last night. You have such a welcoming and calm home, thank you for sharing it with us 😊 Review: Eliza was great with communication and sent lots of pictures and notes to let us know how our dogs were doing. Her home is beautiful and very dog friendly, and her other fur babies are happy and friendly. Great experience!!
