Traci was reliable and very communicative which we appreciated. We could tell by the photos she sent that our cats loved seeing her everyday!

Julie did a great job with our shy cat. You can tell right off the bat she’s an animal lover. She was very patient with her and great about leaving detailed check in notes. We would happily have her pet sit for us any time!

About: I'm an artist and designer living in Stillwater. I work full time for myself, so have a flexible schedule. I also am a must love dogs kinda gal, my past dog was a reactive / high energy and needed at least 5 miles a day of walking, we got our current dog, Gordy, as a puppy and he is a significantly lazier guy and would rather lounge on the couch all day. I'd love to find some dogs who need more walking and need to burn some energy. I'm very patient and have experience with puppy's, shy dogs, reactive dogs, and high energy breeds. I work full time for myself but have an extremely flexible schedule, so could make nearly any time work. I'm available each day from 7am-10pm. We walk our dog twice daily and make sure he gets in a good game of fetch. I love to go for hikes and adventures, also happy to just do a long winding walk through a neighborhood. Happy to adjust to whatever your dog needs. I have a lot of experience with high energy breeds and it's my favorite activity to wear them out. My last dog (who passed a few years ago) was reactive, so I have a lot of experience with how to navigate // work with dogs who need a little extra attention.

Rylan did a terrific job taking care of our cat with a week of drop-in visits while we were on vacation. Rylan did an excellent job of providing daily updates and photos, and also brought our mail in, put the garbage cans out, etc. it is apparent that Rylan has a real love of animals, and it helped knowing that our little guy was well cared for while we were away.

I’m so happy we were able to have Martha watch Eddie. She did such a great job with him. Martha kept us updated and made sure that he was having a great time. She was so accommodating and it was nice knowing our pup was getting great care while we were away.

Patricia did a great job with Hank - he’s quite discerning about his visitors and warmed to them which says a lot! I would rehire Patricia in a minute- you’d be lucky to book them.

About: I have had dogs my whole life. I've taken them through multiple levels of training including therapy dog training. I am a Registered Nurse working part time and I'd love to spend my extra time taking care of your much-loved pet! I currently work part time, which leaves me available for dog walks or drop-ins in the afternoon, boarding is available during the week, though I will be out of the house Mon-Fri 9:00 am-1:30 pm I have a large yard with no fence. We have a walking trail available at the end of our driveway where I can walk your dog when they stay at my house. I have one 2+yr old Labrador and one 8 yr-old boy. My dog is dog/cat friendly.

About: I've always been an animal lover, and have been taking care of neighbors' pets as well as one of my own since I was 9 years old. At 22, I have handled dogs of all sizes and ages, including 3 different breeds at the same time. I'm not afraid of a messy or quirky pet, and I enjoy discovering each animals personality and preferences. They're here for such a short time I thrive on making every moment joyful for them! I currently work as a dance teacher on weeknights which means I am available everyday until around 5pm to spend time with your pet! I typically only work for 3-4 hours a night so when boarding I still have ample time to care for your pet in the evening into the night. I live in a very walkable neighborhood with expansive yard space and a home with plenty of room for toys and beds and crates. When with your pet, I'll be attentive to their needs and be sure to observe for signs of contentment. I am an intuitive person comfortable handling skittish or reactive pets.

About: I have lived with cats since I was 14 years old and have looked after cats and dogs independently since I was 16. I am comfortable with administering medications from my time working at Grand Avenue Veterinary Clinic. I typically work a week day that leaves me away from the house from the hours of 7am to 7pm. Please consider this when determining if I would be a good option for caring for your furry family! As I will be in your and your pets home, making sure everyone is comfortable with me in the space! My goal is to make your pet as comfortable as possible while you are away. If you have any specific concerns about going on walks or interacting with other humans and pets please let me know so I can abide by what works best for your family. I have been trained on how to pill animals who are nervous about medication to ensure that your pet recieves their medication and remains safe and supported in the process. If you should ask me to take care of your home I make sure to grab the mail daily and follow the motto of leave it better than you found it! I want to have you to come home to a clean house.

About: I work 100% out of my home and enjoy having furry friends around to keep me company. I enjoy going outside with my friends on two walks a day. One in the morning and one in the afternoon. We are a family of 6. Two parents, three human kids and one furry kid. Human kids are gone at school during the day but our kind dog Paco is home with me during the day. Paco is a sweet and loving dog who likes friends to walk with or snuggle with. We have a loving home with lots of places to lounge out at during the day. We enjoy having additional furry friends around to keep us company during the days and nights. If you’d like to know more please don’t hesitate to reach out.

About: I grew up with a wide variety of pets my whole life: dogs, ducks, chickens, and even a hedgehog! My love for dogs in particular is strong and rooted in my families history of owning them since I was a baby! We have dogs from all ages in our house- from senior dogs to just puppies, I am comfortable caring for any age and any breed! I work from home with very flexible hours so I am able to care for my pets diligently everyday without worry of potentially conflicting scheduling. My care typically involves feeding them, grooming them if needed, giving them their medication if necessary, play time whether that involves going on walks/runs, enrichment time, or practicing basic commands.

About: Hi! I have always had a pup in my life, and I couldn’t imagine it any other way! I have a 3 year old Mini Australian Shepherd named Basil. I am always taking him to play frisbee, swim, go for long walks, and adventure around different lakes etc,. If your pup would love a friend to play with, I could bring him, or leave him at home :) He is my best friend, and so I understand it might take a lot to trust someone with your pup. I am a registered nurse at Children's Hospital, but I only work 2-3 12 hour shifts a week! This allows me to have a lot of free time to take care of my dog, and yours! I have a wooded back yard with lots of grass and space to throw a frisbee, ball, or play! There are a lot of walking trails near me as well:)

Tucker did a wonderful job checking in on our cat Khaleesi. You can tell he's an animal lover and gave her much needed attention while we were away. He was great with communication and with care. I highly recommend Tucker and would use his services again.

Our cats are very shy yet Gabriela brought one of them out of his shell. I was so surprised to see Marty playing and hanging out with her. She worked hard to get Marty to be relaxed without stressing him. She was patient and it paid off.
