Dog Sitting Stillwater

“She was very attentive to my cats needs. They got all the love and cuddles while I was on vacation”

About: I have grown up with dogs my entire life. Our family animals (dog, cats, goats, Guinea pigs, birds, lizards, and a pony) fostered my lifelong love of animals. As a dog sitter, I have experience working with many different breeds and personalities. I have worked at a cruelty-free animal shelter, where I walked dogs, provided playtime, and helped take care of their living spaces. I have experience dog sitting in my home and understand the importance of helping dogs feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. When your dog is with me, they will receive plenty of attention, affection, and care. I am happy to take your dog on walks as often as needed and look forward to having a companion to play and cuddle with. On days I am not at school, I am at home, which allows me to give your dog my full attention throughout the day. I genuinely care about making every dog feel happy, comfortable, and secure, and I will treat yours as if they were my own! I am currently a doctoral student studying Acupuncture & Chinese Medicine and my schedule allows me to provide pet care throughout the week. On Tuesdays and Wednesdays, I am on campus for part of the day, and Thursday through Monday I study from home, which gives me the availability to provide your pets with plenty of companionship and attention throughout the day. I live in a house with my parents. The upstairs level is my dedicated living space, which includes a bedroom, bathroom, and a living room area. Your pet will spend their time in this space with me! My parents have a cat that lives downstairs. They will not be living in the same space. We live on 4 acres, providing ample outdoor space for play, exploration, and exercise. We are located on rural road, which is great for long walks. When caring for pets, I prioritize maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, exercise, playtime, and any special instructions you provide.

About: I’ve had pets my whole life. Currently, I have two dogs (Great Pyrenees and pitbull) and two cats. I have experience giving medication (pill and liquid format), as well as giving insulin, and even subcutaneous IV fluids. Because my dogs are so big, you bet I’ll be able to walk your dog(s) no matter their size! I love going to dog parks or just chilling on the couch for some cuddles. I also have experience with spicier critters who just need a little time and space. No matter how big or small, how old or young, I’ll take the best care of your babies. I work from home with a flexible schedule so popping over for play/potty breaks or house sitting for you during the work week is no problem. I’m available 5pm onwards and on weekends for sitting or more extensive care. I am flexible with my availability. I am very good at following any instructions you have for your fur baby when I come to your house. Anything you need me to do I’ll do it. The best possible feeling is knowing your animals are in good, safe hands when you’re not available to take care of them yourself and I promise to deliver.

“Denise did a great job, with our cat. She kept the food and water dishes full, cleaned litter box everyday. Also gave our cat some needed attention. I would highly recommended Denise for care of pets. Very reliable.”

About: I grew up on a farm so I've been around animals my whole life. I've cared for dogs of various breeds, sizes and ages for family, friends, and now people on Rover. I must say, I've met some pretty awesome dogs and people through Rover. I am retired, but clean a couple houses on a monthly basis. I can typically schedule cleaning days around pet sitting. If I happen to clean a day I'm pet sitting, the longest I'm away is typically 4 hours. I don't have a dog of my own at this time. My Ella, sadly crossed the rainbow bridge in December of 2021. Crazy how your life totally changes when they are gone. I miss all my dogs more than anything and will some day have another dog or two. In the meantime, I get my dog fix by taking care of other people's dogs. I will provide exercise and companionship for your dog(s) as if they were my own. I know how hard it is to leave them when you want some time away. I will do my best to keep them on the schedule and routine they are familiar with to ease their stress of you being away. I will communicate with you daily with updates and photos, unless you specify otherwise.

About: I've dog sit and dog walked for the past ~5 years! I have a dog of my own, who is the love of my life. Dogs are family members just as much as any human- and you can ensure when I sit or walk them, they will be treated as such. My husband and I moved here in January, he is a firefighter and I work at Childrens! Please reach out, I'd love to meet you and your pup! I am currently home most days and am available for all your pet needs! Daily walks, frequent potty breaks, consistent stimulation and play time... anything you can think of your pet needing, I can absolutely help with! In our home, your pet will be safe and loved as if they are my own! I have another very playful dog who has never met a dog he doesn't like. I would be honored to take care of your pup.

“Hannah was very timely and did a great job making sure the dogs were taken care off, walked them and spent time with them while we were on vacation. We appreciated all the details and pictures!”

“Kendra is very professional and so easy to talk to. Our cats took to her quickly and seemed to enjoy her being around. She sent pictures and video which was reassuring. Would definitely ask her to pet sit again.”

“Danielle did an excellent job with the pups! She also communicated very well throughout the visit. Would highly recommend.”

About: I have been caring for dogs and cats for as long as I can remember. I grew up with a high-energy English Springer Spaniel and was lucky enough to spend 16 wonderful years with him. I am also a proud cat mom of two and truly love animals of all kinds! In addition to regularly pet sitting for friends and family, I have experience caring for senior pets and animals with special needs. I understand the importance of patience, consistency, medication schedules, mobility considerations, and providing extra comfort and attention when needed. Through caring for aging pets of my own and others, I have become comfortable recognizing changes in behavior and adapting care to meet each pet's individual needs. What sets me apart is that I genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet's unique personality. Whether your pet is young and energetic, shy and anxious, senior, or requires extra support, I strive to provide the same level of care, love, and attention that I would want for my own pets. I set my own work schedule and currently work remotely on Wednesdays and Fridays. On the days I go into the office, I am home by 4:00 PM at the latest and can make adjustments to my schedule as needed. I also spend most weekends at home, allowing me to provide plenty of attention, supervision, and care to any animals in my care! I treat every pet in my care as if they were my own. I take the time to learn each pet's routine, feeding schedule, exercise needs, medications, and any special instructions provided by their owner. I understand that consistency is important, so I do my best to maintain the routines pets are used to. In my home, I provide a safe, clean, and pet-friendly environment with plenty of supervision and attention. Pets are never left unattended for extended periods, and I carefully monitor introductions between animals when applicable. I make sure pets have access to fresh water, comfortable resting areas, and appropriate enrichment throughout the day. I also have a fenced-in yard that allows for energy to be shed! When caring for pets in a client's home, I respect both the pet's routine and the owner's home. I follow all care instructions closely, provide regular updates and photos, and ensure pets receive the attention, exercise, and companionship they need while their family is away. My goal is to create a stress-free experience where pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved, and where owners feel confident knowing their pets are in good hands.

About: I have helped out with friends and family’s pets for a few years. I feed, walk, bathe their pets. Love to play with them with their toys and sometimes give them treats if owner allows. I’m currently wide open with my time, flexible and able to work around your schedule with your pets. I am available during the week and weekends. In both scenarios, safety, trust, and the environment are paramount. In my home, I maintain a secure and pet-friendly environment, free from hazards. For clients' homes, I conduct thorough assessments to ensure a safe setting for their pets. I adhere strictly to any instructions provided by the pet owners, maintaining routines and environments familiar to the pets to minimize stress. I prioritize trust by communicating openly and transparently with clients, providing regular updates and addressing any concerns promptly. Additionally, I strive to create a positive and nurturing environment, enriching pets' experiences with stimulating activities and plenty of love and attention.

About: I’ve always loved animals and have spent years caring for dogs both personally and professionally. I have my own dog and am very comfortable handling all the day to day responsibilities that come with pet care, from walks and playtime to feeding, medications, and overnight stays. Over the years I’ve also cared for many other pets through walks, drop in visits, and house sitting. I currently have multiple long term clients that I’ve worked with for over two years, and I take a lot of pride in being someone both pets and their owners can trust and rely on. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. Whether your dog loves long walks, extra playtime, or just wants a calm companion while you’re away, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for! I work part time and have a very flexible schedule, so pet care fits into my day pretty naturally. I’m able to accommodate walks, drop ins, and overnight care, and I don’t mind adjusting my schedule to make sure pets get the attention and consistency they need. I’m very attentive and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, so they get a lot of love and attention while they’re in my care. I like to make sure we can get out all their energy during the day to help relieve any anxiety they have without their family and feel safe with me! I know every pet and owner has different preferences, and I’m happy to adapt to whatever works best for you. Just let me know your pet’s routine and your expectations, and I’ll do my best to care for them the way you would.

“We were so glad Katherine could come back to care for our sweet kitty. She is a great support when we are out of town! Always communicative and thorough with updates. Definitely recommend!”

About: I have taken care of dogs of all ages, sizes, and shapes! I love animals large and small and I have dog sat for my neighbors since middle school. My dog is 7 years old now and is my heart. My family and friends call me a dog whisperer because all dogs love me!! I work during weekdays and can move my schedule depending on the needs of the dog. I have a pretty flexible schedule other than during weekdays. I follow the instructions of pet parent requests. Closing bathroom doors, crating, and feeding per instructions given to me for the safety of the animal. Any special requests I am more than able to provide.

About: I am an energetic person and love to work with animals outside. I do enjoy walks with them, and I got to work on a dude ranch a few years ago! Animals were always around!

I am looking to take on some extra work and get to care for some pets! I can't have a cat or dog due to my travel, but I love to be around them. I love to play with cats and dogs whenever I care for them. I give them the time they need to get used to me, and play more when they want to be near me or give them as many pets as they request. I am huge on getting dogs outside and getting their energy out.
