House Sitting in Taft

“I'm extremely pleased with having Kimberly T. house sit for my dog, Jay! Jay is an older golden retriever with special needs and Kimberly totally took care of him. I could tell he enjoyed her visits and would definitely have Kimberly house sit again. She made Jay happy and safe while I was away!”

“We had a great experience working with Talia! Our pup takes a while to warm up, and we knew she was in great hands with Talia, who was very committed to caring for our girl! We've already recommended Talia to our neighbors and are glad to have someone like her to call on!”

“Lakaya was great watching our older dog Caspian! She sent us plenty of updates which put us at ease knowing our dog was well taken care of. At the end of our trip our flight back home was delayed by a day. Fortunately Lakaya’s schedule was open and she was able to watch our dog for another day while we couldn’t be home. We didn’t have to worry about Caspian for our whole trip!”

“Tanna was amazing to have as a sitter for Dozer! She was so kind and he absolutely ADORES her! She sent pictures and kept me up to date on everything during my week away. I know he looks forward to seeing her again in a few weeks!”

About: Hi there! If you’re looking for someone who truly adores animals, you’ve come to the right place! From childhood through high school, I spent my time walking neighborhood dogs alongside caring for our own family pets. I was known around the neighborhood as the reliable babysitter and animal lover everyone could count on! At 17, I took on the rewarding challenge of training my own Service Dog, which gave me even more hands-on experience and deepened my love and understanding of dogs. I treat every animal like they’re part of my own family and always make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for. I have experience with dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities! From gentle senior pups who need a slower pace to week-old puppies still with their mama. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of getting to know and care for hundreds of dogs, each with their own unique personality and needs. I can’t wait to meet your furry family member! I’m currently on summer break from college, which means I will have plenty of time and flexibility for walks, playtime, cuddles, and quality pet care. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities! I understand how important it is to find someone you can fully trust with your furry family member. I tailor my care to each individual pup and always work closely with pet parents to create the safest and most comfortable environment possible, because nobody knows your dog better than you do! I have safety plans and routines in place for different types of care and am always happy to adapt to your pet’s unique needs, personality, and routine. Feel free to message me with any questions about my services or safety measures! I’d love to chat and help you feel confident and comfortable when booking with me!

“Clint was great with my new rescue pup, Orion. They had a fun time hanging out. I can’t wait to have him watch Orion again!”

“Chrissy was amazing. She’s great with communication, sending updates with pictures and our pets adored her! We decided last minute to leave a day earlier than planned to get ahead of a winter storm and she was very flexible in making that possible. She had to deal with terrible weather conditions and made sure we knew our pets were being well taken care of. We will definitely be reaching out to her in the future!”

“Lakes was amazing with Artemis! She was great at communicating with us and keeping us informed of how Artemis was doing. I would recommend her to anyone and will definitely be repeat client.”

“My dogs were well-cared for and I’m happy. Thank you for shoveling the snow that fell while I was gone. That was above and beyond the call of duty!”

“Sav was very accommodating and knowledgeable about large breed dogs. We felt very comfortable with her taking care of our fur baby. We will be utilizing her services again. Highly recommend.”

About: Hey there! I'm Amelia — I live on a homestead with acreage in the Meadowlands area of northern MN with my husband Cole, our two big dogs, and two very chill cats. We're outdoorsy, animal-obsessed, and genuinely love having a well-matched guest dog join the pack for a bit. I keep my space small on purpose — I only take 1 dog at a time (occasionally 2 if they're a bonded pair). Your dog gets to actually hang out with us, not sit in a kennel run. Think: meadow walks, couch time, and the kind of attention your dog would get from a friend who just really loves dogs. My resident crew is good with all breeds and sizes — big dogs are welcome. The cats are dog-savvy and hold their own. I'll send you photo updates because I'd want the same. I work from home, so your dog won't be alone. I'm thoughtful about which dogs I say yes to — I always recommend a meet-and-greet first so everyone can get a feel for each other. Reach out and let's chat! Some one is always home so your pet is never alone for long. Mornings start outside — we're on acreage so there's real space to move. The rest of the day is a mix of work, outdoor time, and hanging out together. Low-key, consistent, present. Your animal is part of the household while they're here, not a guest in a kennel. Safe outdoor space, resident animals who are calm and social, and a home where the animals genuinely run the show.

“Amber was awesome with our dog! She dog sat for us when our dog was recovering from getting neutered. Our dog is very energetic and she did so well keeping him calm and bringing activities to keep him occupied. We were very impressed with her care!”

“AMAZING!”

About: I am a cool and calm individual who can easily adapt to new energies and environments. I have cared for small, medium, and large dogs all with varying personalities, needs, and activities including Yorkshire Terriers, Blue Heelers, Labs, and Pitt Bulls. I can stay home with pets who'd rather curl up on the couch, go hiking with more active ones, or help dogs with anxiety feel safe. I can stick to schedules while reading a dog's changing needs. I have experience in healthcare, the service industry, and trauma-conscious yoga which aids in my ability to respond to stressful or complicated situations with efficiency, grace, and compassion. I can easily connect with animals. Through mutual respect and appreciation, I have formed a genuine bond with all of the dogs I have cared for. I have a very flexible schedule. Day time is usually open. I work multiple part time jobs at night but can schedule around those times. I can walk, let-out, play, or stay with dogs. I feel comfortable caring for multiple pets. I do well with leashing and crating. I can administer medications. I will adhere to eating and potty schedules. I will communicate efficiently with dog-owners.

About: I’ve cared for dogs of all ages and personalities for over 15 years, starting with family and neighbors and continuing through friends and repeat clients. I also volunteer walking dogs at the Humane Society in Superior, where I regularly work with nervous, high-energy, or more challenging dogs. I take a calm, patient approach and adjust to each dog’s needs, earning trust is always my goal. If a dog is difficult, I see it as an opportunity to connect. I truly love dogs, and I already love yours. I have a flexible schedule and work from home most days, which allows me to be present and attentive throughout the day. With about three days’ notice, I can adjust my schedule to accommodate pet care needs. On days I’m in the office or traveling for personal reasons, I communicate clearly in advance to ensure expectations are set and care is consistent. Safety and trust are always my top priorities. I have two friendly dogs of my own, and I’m mindful about introductions and routines. If a pet needs a quieter or separate environment, I have family nearby who can care for my dogs as needed. I have a partially fenced yard and use leashes and close supervision for outdoor time. I follow care instructions closely and focus on providing a calm, structured, and safe environment.

About: Hi! I am a small business owner with pets of my own. I love to be inside or outside and have a very flexible schedule. Communication is my super power so you will always know that your pets are safe and sound! I am also very patient as I am a caregiver for my aging mother. I work for myself, so my schedule tends to be very flexible and variable. I also set my own schedule and thus can flow with changes as needed. Each pet has different needs, each pet owner has different expectations. I am very ready to listen and deliver what you need for your pets.

About: Hello there! My name is Ella. I’ve been pet sitting for over a decade now and have met some wonderful people and pets along the way. From a young age, I've been fortunate to have had opportunities to care for a variety of animals - from parrots to puppies! I have extensive experience walking, cleaning, feeding, and providing basic medical care. I understand how important it is to find a caring, trustworthy sitter for your pet while you're gone. I would love to connect with you to see if I could be the right fit! My work schedule is flexible and I work remotely Monday-Friday. That way I’m able to spend as much time as needed with your pet, especially if housesitting is an option for you. While pet sitting, I prefer to proactively communicate with my clients. I text you when I arrive at the house and give a status update, reassuring you that everything is in order and your pets are doing well. I recognize the needs of your pet and respond accordingly. I'm patient and calm with those that are withdrawn or scared. I understand that many animals are sensitive to change and may be missing their people when I first arrive; so I make sure to maintain their schedule as much as possible. My goal is to provide seamless, loving care for your pet - ensuring their routines remain as normal and as consistent as they would be if your were home with them. I allow them as much time as they need to warm up and begin to trust me. When they feel comfortable, I like to send pictures to let you know how they're doing, all the while keeping your home clean and tidy.

“Samantha did a wonderful job taking care of my elderly, very needy cat! She also took wonderful care of my home. Would definitely use her again!”

“Carah exceeded every expectation and earned my trust 100%. If you're thinking of hiring her for pet sitting, you totally should.”

Elizabeth Y.

“Alex is absolutely wonderful!! Met with her twice before her 10 day stay here. We went over everything and wrote her notes for reminders. Communication was awesome! I received pictures of the critters, and we messaged 1 or 2 times a day. Asked her to keep the house as it was and it looked great plus the yard was spotless.. she even made cat toys, but the dogs seem to like them more! All around a great experience with Alex! I already have her booked in January!”
