Stephanie did a great job with my little Zena. She sent me a picture and updates on my baby to assure me how much fun Zena was having. It's hard for me to find a place or a sitter with a dog the size of Zena (5 lbs) and Stephanie made it so easy for me to book her because she had the perfect dogs and space. I'd book with Stephanie again!

About: I’ve had 15 years of dogs in my houses and many pets in the family who have needed sitting. I’m also normally responsible for the puppy age :) My dog is a 6 year old black lab. We live along the river in a townhouse, so I’m always out taking him for long walks or to the neighborhood dog park. I’m currently unemployed so have lots of free time and in the habit of pet care! Pet care available in our home. We have 3 separate floors so I can keep your dog apart from my dog if preferred. Lovely dog park a short walk from the house, access to grass areas right outside our front door, and miles of paths along the river that a very walk friendly.

Upon the meet and greet I knew my hound harper would be in good hands: Andrea took great care of Harper. It is a huge relief to know I’ve got a place to drop her off at when I need to and don’t have to worry about her.

Tofte is always so happy to get to Bethany's. Sometimes he isn't sure if he is ready to leave at the end of the day which is a great sign. On nice days like today, spending time exploring and playing in Bethany's fenced in back yard is a treat!

About: 🐶 Over the years, my wife Diane and I have cared for many pups—ours, family’s, and friends’. We both melt at nearly every dog we meet. We raised two beloved Miniature Schnauzers who became diabetic and blind in their senior years, so we’re very familiar with special needs, administering medications, and tailoring care to individual temperaments. We've also socialized young rescue pups, many with special needs, and are always attentive to a dog's unique comfort zone. Whether it’s sticking to a strict feeding schedule, giving meds, or just making a pup feel safe, we handle it with care and compassion. We also love capturing moments—expect plenty of photos and videos to keep you in the loop while you’re away. 👋 We’re a dog-loving couple who treat every pup like extended family. Diane is semi-retired and the primary caregiver during the day, which gives us a lot of flexibility. I work full-time, but I’m involved mornings, evenings, and weekends, so we share the care based on what each dog needs. When we commit to a pup, we coordinate as a team to make sure their routine is consistent and they’re getting all the love, play, and attention they need. Whether it’s a walk-heavy schedule or a snuggle-on-the-couch situation, we adjust with ease. 🏡 We live in a first-floor, multi-level condo in St. Paul’s historic Hill District, complete with a fenced-in backyard for safe and easy outside time. Indoors, it’s calm and cozy—ideal for dogs who like a peaceful home base. We've kennel-trained our own dogs and usually set up a small kennel under the bedside table, offering a quiet den-like space many pups naturally gravitate to. Whether your dog is staying with us or we’re caring for them in your home, our focus is always on keeping them safe, comfortable, and stress-free. We do our best to maintain their routine and bring them comfort while you’re away.

I cannot thank Emily enough for taking care of Mikko. We had never brought him to daycare or boarding before, and she suggested a handful of ideas to help him adjust to them. She cracked the code on how to cure his separation anxiety and kept him comfortable. We are SO happy we found Emily!

About: I've taken care of all sorts of animals from rabbits, cats, dogs, lizards and rats. I love almost every kind of animal and would love to experience them in full. I have taken care of senior animals in their last leg of life, almost like a pet hospice. Everyone deserves comfort and love. I have 2 cats myself, with my family. We all take turns and take time to care for the animals. They are like family to us, so its just kind of second nature to add them into our schedules. I have mentioned my family in certain bio points, but it will be just me showing up for you and your pets. In the client's home I would prefer a list of how you like your animal cared for as everyone has different schedules, but I would try to keep myself and your pets to your schedule. I know that structure can really help some people, and I know some loose reigns help others. So just give me a heads up for what you need and I will fit my style accordingly. I would like to point out that it will be just me taking care of your pets, I have mentioned my family in certain bio points, but it will be just me showing up for you.

About: 🌿 Loving, Experienced, Home-Based Dog Care Hi! I’m Shontay, and I’ve been a dog mom for over 10 years. My own dogs are spoiled, well-trained, and great with visitors. I work from home full-time, so your dog gets plenty of attention, supervision, and affection all day long. 🏡 Safe, Comfortable Home Environment I have a fully fenced backyard and a doggy door that makes potty breaks and outdoor play easy. I’m patient and experienced with helping dogs learn how to use the dog door, especially shy or younger pups. My dogs are potty trained and friendly with other dogs, so everyone settles in quickly. 🐾 Special Love for Nervous & Skittish Dogs One of my regular clients has a very skittish puppy who doesn’t like many people, but he bonded with me immediately—that’s how I earned the job. I move slow, speak gently, and let dogs set the pace. I want every pet to feel safe, understood, and comfortable in my home. 💛 What Your Dog Can Expect Here • A calm, loving environment • Lots of outdoor time in a fenced yard • Patience, guidance, and structure • Respect for their personality and comfort level • Updates so you always know how they’re doing I’d be honored to care for your dog like one of my own while you're away. Your baby’s happiness and safety will always come first. Thanks for your time cant wait to meet u and pup I work from home so I'm always here so that's why I'm looking for more things I can do from home I can't wait to meet my new furbabies I have a dog door available a fence day in backyard and I will give your dog what I call a scragge and massage and scratch together my dogs Love them lol hope to hear from u soon I have delivered 5 of my dog's puppies so I do know how to deliver puppies I do know doggy 1st a care and I have a dog door a dog doorbell and I'm just really good with dogs overall so please choose me have a good day thanks for your time

I can't speak highly enough of Kristine! I took a chance on a day care near my work and sent a request to her the night before needing her. Upon meeting her the next morning, all my apprehensions left! She was genuinely welcoming to me, but more importantly, to my pup, Bella. You know how you kinda wish your pet would look back and wonder why you're leaving them especially at a brand new place? Bella pranced right up to Kristine's house and was ready for the day's adventure. Clearly, I was more nervous than Bella. Kristine sent me an update within the first hour to let me know Bella was doing fine. It was even more exciting to hear that my little Bella was playing well with Kristine's bigger dog, Gio. What a twosome they were! Thank you, Kristine, for making this work emergency of mine doable and caring for Bella so lovingly.

Thank you so much for watching Tonka! He had an absolute blast — he came home, flopped over like he had just run a triathlon, and then gave me that “I had the best day ever” look. It’s obvious he adored hanging out with you and your family. The Best. Honestly, you were super awesome with him, and I’d happily recommend your dog‑watching superpowers to anyone who needs a reliable, fun, and all‑around amazing sitter. Tonka is already lobbying for his next “vacation” at your place.

I couldn’t have asked for a more perfect sitter for my energetic and lovable 5.5 year old sheepadoodle (Mabel) Jackie has a doodle (Vinny) and the two doodles got along great. Jackie greeted Mabel and I with kindness and reassured me that Mabel is in good hands. She sent photos along with an update about how things were going. I will definitely be contacting Jackie again for taking care of Mabel; she’s absolutely fabulous!
