“Xinia has been a blessing in my life! Bingo is so lucky to have an amazing walker that goes out of her way to ensure my bingo is well taken care of and most importantly she makes sure my bingo is loved! Xinia has been very patient with my bingo as it takes her time to trust new people, but Xinia has done and outstanding job being patient & caring towards her. I would recommend her to anybody that’s looking for a a sitter, or a walker! 12/10 from me!”
“Molly was such a joy to work with and went above and beyond to give our dog a much needed break and extra attention in the middle of the day. We will use her again in a heartbeat!”
“Sophie has been an extremely reliable dog walker for our pup over the past 5 months! She was great at managing his high energy levels and figuring out a play/walk routine that worked well for them both. We are very grateful for her services!”
“Ashley has been easy to work with, super timely, and great with our dog. I highly recommend her. Our shepherd/husky Max is an energetic guy and he instantly liked her. Max can sometimes be a handful, and this was no problem - Ashley’s a pro with big dogs. Max came back from his walks happy, smiley, and calm. Thanks Ashley for your care!”
“Caroline was a great dog sitter! She was extremely detailed, thorough, sweet with Ruby, and a great communicator. Would love her to take care of Ruby again!”
About: I grew up around 4 dogs (golden retrievers and a French bulldog) and a cat, and helped to feed, walk, brush, & generally care for them from a young age. This includes helping to care for 11 puppies when I was 10! My dogs were some of my best friends, and I have a good understanding of how to communicate with and train them. All in all I have a massive respect and love for animals of all sorts and I always treat them with kindness. I'm also comfortable with elderly dogs-- currently my family owns an elderly, special needs Frenchie. I currently work full time as a planner for the Minnesota government. Accordingly, I am available between 6 - 7:30 am and after 6 pm Monday --> Friday, with more availability for lunchtime drop-ins on Mondays and Fridays. My availability most weekends is very flexible. I prefer to operate on a drop in basis. I am a responsible adult who enjoys a quieter lifestyle-- I prefer to spend my evenings and weekends working out (hiking, biking, swimming), going to bed early, and cooking good food. My friends, colleagues, and relatives have trusted me to care for their pets in the past.
“Tony takes such good care of my girl when I’m working long days. It’s such a comfort knowing she’s getting loved on and lots of playtime, and she recognizes Tony’s name with a pitty smile and thumping tail.”
“Alex is the BEST dog walker! She is so caring to my beagle, Ernie. Alex always goes Bove and beyond to ensure he is happy, well exercised and loved. Her pictures and messages are always detailed. Thank you, Alex!!!”
About: Hello! My name is Rae! I’m originally from Florida, but I enjoy Minnesota’s seasons much more. Most of my experience is from volunteering for independent rescues. I have also volunteered at a veterinary clinic. As a kid, I would often pet-sit my neighbors' furry friends, both cats and dogs. My most popular clients were two Italian Greyhounds. I have grown up with pets most of my life and currently have two pets of my own. I currently own a special needs senior cat, which has made me experienced with giving medication and even administering IV fluids. Thanks for considering me for your pet's care! I currently work from home and spend time with my senior special needs cat, Sierra. I love animals, and it's exciting to make new furry friends! Currently, my schedule is open and flexible. If my details don't match exactly what you are looking fo,r please feel free to message me. I am happy to try to make something work. Since I rent an apartment, I will only care for your pet at your home. I need to be made aware if I'm being videotaped. Typically, the owner informs me of the feeding/bathroom schedule for their pets. I like to know the personality of the pets, so I set up meet and greets when possible. I like to know what the pet likes and dislikes, and how you, the owner, would like to be updated while you are away. I work best with clear written expectations. I have a smartphone so I can send video/photo updates!
“I could not be happier with everything about our experience with Brenna! Her communication is fantastic, she wanted to know all about how to make Bodhi’s time with her go smoothly, and she gave me lots of details on how it went. I feel lucky we found her & we’ll definitely be calling on her again.”
“Sharron does a great job and communicates well with us on schedule adjustments. Fiona my Goodendoodle waits at the door for her to pull up to the house and is excited to see her every walk.”
About: My names Jeremiah and I'd love to take care of your pet. Been around pets my whole life. Mainly cats, but I love all animals. Most pets I've known or taken care of before have warmed up to me quick cause I let them get comfortable at their own pace and show lots of love and patience. Owned many cats myself and have gotten really engaged with taking care of other relatives or friends of relatives pets. I enjoy watching sports and trying out new food and going places I haven't been before. Huge fan of history and reading in my spare time. Avid fan of sleeping and eating more food than I should but always get things done on time. If a zombie apocalypse were to happen I'd be the one you'd want in your group
About: Hello, I’m Kelsey! In my professional life, I work in the tech world, and my hybrid schedule allows me to be home with the dogs four days a week. During my free time, I enjoy exercising, getting lost in a good book, and writing fiction. I'm also the proud mama of two sweet rescue dogs. Please note that if you book me for any service other than dog walking, my two pups will be present. However, I don’t have children, cats, or other animals, so when I commit to a booking, your pets receive my full attention and care. A little about my little ones: Jane is a forty-pound Lab mix who prefers napping to playing. August is a spunky Miniature Aussie who lives for a game of fetch. They’re both well-socialized with other dogs and fully up-to-date on vaccinations and preventatives. FOR MEET-AND-GREETS: I am available to meet potential new clients on weekend days, preferably in the morning! FOR DROP-OFF AND PICKUP: During the work week, drop-offs and pickups must be scheduled before 8:00 a.m. or after 6:00 p.m. I appreciate your understanding and flexibility. Please don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any questions not covered in my profile—I’m always happy to chat! I strive to maintain the routine your dogs are accustomed to, so if this includes trips to the dog park or daily walks, these are things I would love to know. I provide a safe and clean environment, consistent feeding/medication, and daily positive attention to your furry family member while always following the instructions you provide.
About: Beyond my family having pets of our own growing up, I have 10+ years of experience dog/cat sitting. From dog walking, medication needs, and even fostering animals in my home, I've nearly done it all. My flexible schedule allows me to be attentive to any pets needs and take necessary breaks during the day, as I’m currently working from home. I have a great spacious apartment for any pet. My building is both safe and quiet from other neighbors. I maintain a clean space, so there's no concern for them getting into something they aren't supposed to.

Jeremiah V.
“Jeremiah stayed at our home for 12 days while we were on vacation to watch our two cats, Gordy & McCarthy. While cats can be home and just checked in on from time to time, we consider them our babies and wanted someone to stay full time. We were excited each day to get pictures of the cute and silly things they were doing and updates on their adventures. McCarthy is extremely shy and doesn't really come out when strangers are in the house. I think it was day 2 or 3 that she was up snuggling on his lap!! Jeremiah totally loves little creatures and we would not hesitate to have him watch our cuddle bugs in the future.”

“Zac is kind, adaptable, and super sweet with animals. Staying somewhere new can be stressful for pets; he is great at learning each one's needs and preferences to maximize their comfort while their owner is gone!”

- Start and stop times
- A map of their walk with total distance
