Pet Sitting & Drop Ins in University District, Minneapolis

“Sophie is very attentive and my kitties totally adore her! Her updates are always informative and I love getting such cute pictures of my little guys. We’ve booked with her twice and plan to call on her again!”

“Emily was fantastic! Regular updates were sent with lots of cute pictures of our cats. They also were really communicative the whole time and went above and beyond to help sweep up after our messy children as well as feeding / litter box care. We really appreciated Emily's help and will definitely reach out again the next time we need pet sitting services! We met up with Emily before our trip per her suggestion, which was super nice. My partner appreciated seeing how well Emily approached our cats - our black kitty can be a bit cautious but she gave him plenty of space to approach. Our orange kitty also evidently got all the snuggles he needed (since he's a needy mother****er) based on the photos we got. 5/5 stars, highly recommend Emily's services!”

“Jennifer was great as a drop-in caretaker for our 2 dogs and 1 cat! She was great at communicating anything that happened while she was there. We will definitely go back to her if we need someone to check in on our animals.”

“Megan helped me out on incredibly short notice and was an absolute gem. I loved getting my report cards on her visits with plenty of pictures. I felt so at ease and comfortable with Megan watching my baby. Can’t wait for her next visit!”

“Even though the cats are relatively low maintenance, she really did a great job making sure they’re taken care of and got some activity time in! Very respectful!”

About: Hi there! My name is Ariana and I’m a physical therapist with a passion for animals! I've owned four dogs and 2 cats in my lifetime and I'm currently a dog-mom to two mini schnauzer-poodle mixes. I have over a decade of experience dog walking and house-sitting small, medium, and large breeds of dogs in addition to cats and rabbits. I am currently on a brief leave from work to study for a board exam, so my schedule is very flexible. Weekdays and weekends can be accommodated. I am sensitive to and have experience accommodating various medical and dietary needs/preferences. One of my own pets has complex medical needs, so I’m very understanding.

“Alexa was great at taking care of my pup Bandit. She was very concerned about every need my puppy might have. She asked great questions and when time came she followed instructions to a T. I would highly recommend her and would be glad to hire her again. Thank you again Alexa and I appreciate all you did today!”

“Maverick lived having a mid-day visit with Kathryn! She spent time with him outside and even helped feed him! Loved the photo of my pup sun bathing!”

“Paige was AMAZING with my pups. My two anxious greyhounds opened up very quickly with her. She updated me frequently with pictures and videos. Great communication. Will definitely use Paige again!”

“Kayla went above and beyond taking care of our cat while we were away. She truly understood our cat's personality and every time she visited she dedicated time to playing with him until he was all tired out. She sent detailed updates and a boatload of photos which we will treasure! We would definitely have Kayla watch our cat again!”

“Abby did a fantastic job with multiple drop-ins recently while we were away! She was great with my dogs and left me detailed notes about her visits, along with photos. I'm so happy to have found her and hope to use her again someday! Thank you, Abby!! ?”

“Joleen has been a trusted pet sitter of my family dog growing up and my current dog. She was the go to person in our neighborhood to watch all the pets and is so caring and a pet lover! My dog gets so excited to see Joleen and because of that I know she treats him with the same love that we do!”

“Lucia did a great job taking care of our kitties while we were away! Loved all the photos and updates and it looked like our cats had a good time too. ☺️”

“Updates were great and she seemed to work well with my dog. Loved everything about this and will definitely continue requesting.”

“Konnor was great with our Bowie, on time, paid extra attention, provided lots of pics. Definitively will hire again!”

“Laura is a fabulous petsitter, we appreciated her somewhat-last minute help taking care of our cat.”

“Karsten is a friendly, caring and outgoing girl. She loves animals and takes very good care of the family dog. She is very trustworthy and also is a runner so if a dog prefers to go a bit faster she can keep up!! She is an awesome person and any dog would be lucky to go for a walk and/or be cared for by her.”

“Great experience! Stepped in when another Rover cancelled a few days prior to our trip. Very detailed in her visit summaries. Super responsive before and during visits. We'll look to go back to CJ for our next Rover!”

“Alla did a great job caring for my cat. She is very reliable and responsible. I would definitely recommend!”

“Sara has been responsive, on time, and gives us great updates on her visits with our pup. She includes photos and videos as well! We really appreciate Sara and trust her. So thankful we found her.”
