“Great experience! Iris was a good communicator and seemed to enjoy spending time with our dog. We came home to a happy pup and a house in great condition. Would definitely book again!”

“Sammie is everything anyone could possibly want in a dogsitter. She is highly experienced, dedicated, flexible, clearly loves and knows a lot about animals. She is also a lovely person to work with.”
“Nyree was an amazing sitter for my little guy! She made me and my pup feel so comfortable and confident about the stay. I was gone for a week in Europe and Nyree sent me daily videos and pictures. Not only was my dog happy and healthy when I got home but she left the condo immaculate! Definitely will be using Nyree again - she’s a 12/10!!!”

About: No matter how big or small I prioritize the happiness and care for your fur-babies as if they were my own. I have previously owned/cared for bunnies, dogs, cats, turtles, lizards and last but not least guinea pigs. Currently I own a big 148lb love-bug of a Great Pyrenees, an Abyssinian guinea pig and three Red Slider turtles! I have assisted my sister for many years taking care of cats and dogs. I also I have previous experience being a dog bather. I currently do not work and am getting ready to study software engineering, giving me much time to give my full attention to your fur-babies. For boarding and daycare, I live in a house with my mom and brother, five minutes away from the Mall of America. I have a fenced in backyard yard with nice bright lights to light the yard at night. There is plenty of space in the kitchen and living room, with dog beds and lots of toys throughout the house. I do my best to keep your fur-babies on the same schedule they have when they're at home. Don't worry about if you have a velcro or anxious baby because it is rare that the pets are home alone! As for house sitting and drop-ins, I fit your pet's needs into my own schedule. At most I will leave for 1-3hrs to check on my pets at home. When I leave, I make your home is left as if I was never there. No matter the service I send many pictures so you can stay updated on your pet's well-being! If you have questions, feel free to reach out! I look forward to working with you to give your pets all the care they need while you're busy or away.
“Kendra was so great with my girls. I haven’t been away from them for that long but she made me feel at ease with her daily photo updates. Thank you for taking such good care of them :)”

“Shykala did an amazing job with our dogs! She kept us in the loop the whole time we were gone, and I could tell the boys were having a great time while we were gone! We would definitely book Shykala again.”

“Olivia is wonderful! She did a great job caring for the fur babes, and sent very cute pictures and updates! She was also flexible and very easy to work with! Would recommend to anyone looking for a reliable pet sitter!”

“Brooke was absolutely incredible with our anxious/reactive dog. She immediately put us at ease during our meet and greet, and was respectful of our dog’s need for a slow introduction. She went above and beyond to make him feel comfortable and let him warm up to her at his own pace. By the end of her stay at our house, the two of them were best buddies. We came home to a very happy and well cared for pup! She was very communicative and sent lots of pictures and updates. We would recommend her in a heartbeat and definitely plan to ask her back again!”

“Kagen was wonderful and really came through for us on short notice with a last-minute request! Both are dog and our house were taken care of well in our absence. We look forward to having Kagen stay with Sasha again!”

“Emily is the perfect dog/cat sitter! Communicative, loving and responsible. I have lots of anxiety over leaving my pups and kitty but Emily made me instantly feel relaxed and confident. I’ll definitely be booking her again!”

“I had a great experience leaving my pups with Aimee. She was very open to meeting them ahead of time so they (and I) would be comfortable before the longer stay and that made such a difference to my more nervous pup. Communication was excellent throughout, and I came home to a spotless house and two happy, well cared for dogs. She took them on walks, even though I said she didn’t need to and gave my fluffy boy an extra brushing. She’ll be my first choice for a sitting going forward and I will happily recommend her to friends.”

“Alexandra was a great house dog sitting person! She walked our dogs sent pictures and went above and beyond for our animals. She is very kind and reliable. I would definitely recommend her to watch your pets! She did a meeting and greet and was on time and had great communication. Thank you to her!”


“Christina was such a great sitter for our anxious pup! She knew how to handle our dog who is very afraid of strangers and was able to get our dog comfortable with her!”

“Sophia is amazing!! When Sophia watched our dog, Winnie, we got nightly updates with humor and multiple photos &/or videos. We looked forward to the updates each night. We could tell Winnie felt comfortable with Sophia, too. We'll definitely use Sophia in the future.”

“Mercy was amazing!! We feel like we found our new dog/ house sitter. She regularly gave us updates and sent photos. Our dog is a senior and Mercy didn’t mind giving Moxie her medicine and taking her for her short walks. We already thought she was great and then we got stranded in Detroit on our way home. We texted her last minute and asked if she could possibly stay an extra night and she saved the day and said yes. We highly recommend her and will use her services again.”
“I couldn’t be happier with the care my pets, 2 large-breed dogs and our cat, received from Courtney. From the moment we met, I knew they were in great hands. Courtney is not only professional but also incredibly caring and attentive. It’s clear that Courtney genuinely loves animals and goes above and beyond to make sure they are well taken care of. I came home to a happy, healthy, and relaxed pets. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for top-notch pet care. I will definitely be booking again in the future! Thank you, Courtney, for treating Guinness, Luca and Sefi like family!”

“Tracy's 2nd time sitting for our admittedly complicated cat family. All scoundrels alive, well, and accounted for = 5 stars. Will be looking for her again the next time we skip town. Thanks Tracy!”

“Marykay was an absolute lifesaver for my pup and home during my Christmas trip to Europe. Her exceptional care ensured I returned to a joyful and healthy puppy, radiating happiness thanks to her attentive and loving approach. Not only did she masterfully look after my pup, but she also took great care of my home, leaving it in perfect condition. Marykay's reliability, kindness, and expertise in pet care truly stood out. I highly recommend her services to any pet parent seeking peace of mind while away.”
