“This was the first time we left our 1-year-old with people outside of our home. He did well and had lots of dogs to play with. Chris and Ashley were very accommodating and caring with Thor. Highly recommended. We'll be using them again.”

“We left our three Chihuahuas with Grace on Labor Day Weekend. We are rarely away from our dogs, so I can't help but be nervous when we are starting with a new sitter. I had a great feeling when we walked in the door. Grace sent me pictures and updates through the weekend. Our dogs did GREAT. Grace and her family bonded so quickly with them. She has one dog, and they all got along so great from the get go. Without a doubt, Grace will be our go-to sitter from now on. 5-stars.”

“Once again Jennifer exceeded our expectations with Grizzly. We traveled over Grizzly’s 1st bday and Jennifer went out a bought him a special treat. She treats him like her own so we can be comfortable leaving him knowing he feels at home.”

“Krista was great! She was flexible and sent cute updates. Finn came home a relaxed, happy boy. It looked like he had so much fun with her dogs! I’d definitely recommend to anyone looking for a responsible, reliable sitter. We hope to have Finn stay with Krista every time we’re in the area!”

“Kay's home was perfect for Mabel. After spending a weekend at a nice dog hotel, we discovered Mabel thrives more with the home vibe and more personal human interaction. Kay provided a beautiful setting on acreage that's a mix of safety with space. I liked that there weren't multiple dogs other than their friendly golden retriever Brandi that Mabel became friends with. Kay kept us updated daily with words and pictures which I really appreciate. I highly recommend Kay and will definitely go back!”

“Mike and Niki took wonderful care of our Poodle puppy, Baxter! They took him to a lake, a dog park, for several walks, and showered him with attention. They sent many updates and pictures, which we loved. We will definitely request their services again! Thanks Mike and Niki!! - Brandi & Chad”

“Elizabeth is awesome! She was so patient and kind with my really nervous dog and went above and beyond to communicate with me and problem-solve as my pup presented her with some unforeseen challenges. I can’t imagine that there’s a better dog caregiver out there.”

“Diane provides great care and a comfortable environment for your family dog. We were hesitant to use anyone, but found Diane truly cares about Goose and treated him as her own.”

About: I am a huge dog lover<3 Caring for them is so rewarding for me. Learning their unique personalities and daily routines brings so much joy! I have cared for two Bichons for the past seventeen years. Since they both have now crossed over the rainbow bridge I am looking for a way to help others out... whether it is to take their dog for a walk during the week while they are at work or to care for them while their owners are traveling. I am mature and responsible... caring and loving your dog as much as you do. I have a special place in my heart for Senior dogs... my senior Bichon gave me so much love and caring experiences to share with others<3
About: I've had dogs in the house since I was a little girl! My boys really love dogs and have just as much energy! I want your pet to leave happy and ready to come back again! I am available on weekends, I am available on week days in the evening also. I just need to know your pets routine and can adjust as needed. I have plenty of space to walk your pet outside and can take them out as many times as needed. Our Rex sleeps with the kiddos and a wonderful snuggler and we love all this kisses and anuggles.
About: Animals have always been apart of my life growing up my parents bred English mastiff and pugs. I showed dogs in 4-H for 4 years and it really helped me amass so much knowledge. I have extensive experience with senior dogs and they hold a very special place in my heart. With us your senior will be in the best of hands. I don’t have a regular 9-5 so most of my day is spent home with the pups. I have my dogs on a specific feeding/potty schedule but I am very flexible to make your pup feel as comfortable as possible. I like to think I treat them as one of my one while keeping in mind if the owner has and rules or requests of their own.

“Amber Dawn was absolutely fantastic with my cat! To note, my cat is extremely shy and usually can take weeks to warm up to someone new. She was happy and content and purring on Amber Dawn's lap in only a couple days. She sent loads of pictures and great updates on how everything was going. I will be continuing to use her for my future cat sitting needs and would recommend to anyone looking for short or long term assistance.”

“We will always ask Elizabeth to watch our cats. She does such a great job with them and clearly loves it too. Super communicative and flexible when our travel plans change. Would recommend to anyone looking for a petsitter to care for their precious fur babies.”


“Shaelie is such a passionate care giver for animals. I could tell during our meet and greet that she really enjoys caring for animals. She made an exception to sit my rabbit shaped cat and was clear with communication and socializing with my rabbit seems natural for her. The photos she sent me definitely reflect a happy visit with my rabbit. 10/10 we would book again!”

About: I've been loving and caring for animals of different kinds for over 30 years. I will treat your fur babies as if they were my own. I hold a very flexible part-time job that allows me to be available to care for your pets most days or the week, including weekends. Wether it's potty breaks, walks, play time or overnight care, I would be happy to love on your babies and make them feel safe and secure while you're away

About: I have had dogs throughout my entire life and have always loved taking care of them and any other animal that came my way. I am excited to meet your furry family members I work from 7-4 but with enough notice it is possible for me to do remote. I have a hour lunch for flexible drop in visits. I have a friendly lab mix to keep your dog(s) company. I have experience with animals before so I can easily get animals into cages, take care of their nutritional and potty needs. I can also bathe and provide other services at owner’s request.
About: Growing up my neighbors always had dogs and we often took care of them while they were away, which is where my love for dogs began. In college my roommate bought a puppy and I helped her raise it for the first 2 years until we graduated. During this time, my responsibilities were being the first one to take her out to the bathroom in the morning, being that I was always the first one awake! Also because I enjoy going for runs, I was the one who brought Finn on daily walk/runs, while also helping train her to live inside our house. Also, in college, the family I nannied bought a puppy and I helped them through the first steps of training her. During this process I really learned the steps of how to care for dogs being that I was the one taking care of her from 7-5 each day. I am looking into adopting a puppy of my own now, but I wish to be more financially stable before I get one. So to satisfy my puppy fever, for now I hope to dog sit and dog walk until I can afford one of my own!
“Grace was kind and generous with our cat Patches. He appreciated the extra pets and human contact while his favorite person was away. Being able to stay in his home to look out his favorite window and sit on his favorite blanket has been a nice change from his traditional boarding. The stay home option would not be available without our cat sitter! We appreciate you, Grace!”

About: I grew up on a farm with many farm animals along with many dogs and cats. As I got older I worked for dog a dog training company and my love for animals has grown immensely!

I am currently a college student I have classes for a couple hours a day and my weekends are free so I’m here to help. I currently like in an apartment that I can not have pets in so I can help take care of your pets in your home.

About: Hello! My name is Liz and I am a lover of animals of all kinds. They are the joy of my life. I have cared for pups since I was young. In my adult life, I adopted the most beautiful little pomeranian, my Remy. He was a senior dog when I adopted him and came with many special needs. I have experience with giving multiple medications, cooking speciality meals, and hand feeding 4 times/day. My little guy even had to be held and burped like a little baby! I am deeply caring, gentle, and warm with all animals. I love taking them on long walks, playing puzzle games and fetch, bringing them on stroller rides, swimming at the lake, and going for car ride adventures. I work very hard to keep my little fur babies engaged, joyfilled, and calm. After losing my little boy Remy in July, I would really appreciate being able to carry that love over to your own special furry, feathered, or scaly family member. It would be a joy for me to help care for your loved one. I am currently the most available that a person could be. Caring for your special family members is my job, and my passion. You name the day and time, I will make it happen. I have a wonderful little home in town with a large yard. I do not have a fenced in yard, however, I live right near miles of walking trails. My home is clean, calm, and welcoming, with lots of sunbathed, cozy places to nap. If you would like me to visit your loved one in your home, I will always be diligent about following house rules. I am respectful, courteous, and conscientious.
“We have used Chris’ doggie daycare services multiple times. They are caring people with a clear love of all animals. They are constantly improving their spacious location and my dog enjoys roaming around and sniffing all the sniffs of this little farm. They are always very flexible with drop off and pick up times. We are grateful to be able to call on Chris when we need a dogless day!”

About: I've always had a connection to animals since childhood. My family had a small hobby farm growing up and I would spend my free time reading out by the chickens, batting a softball for my lab-spaniel mix to fetch or laying in the grass with my guinnea pig and rabbit. I volunteered with Adopt-A-Pet animal rescue for eight years in many capacities including foster mom. Besides pet sitting, I've also worked in the Petsmart grooming salon and have a grooming certification. I've worked as an animal caretaker on several organic farms and have the skills necessary to petsit animals considered farm animals. I have a calm demeanor about me which animals sense and quickly feel comfortable around me. I also have the patience it takes to work well with animals. I value good communication, honesty, diligence, punctuality and quality care.
“Highly recommend Jennifer for your furry pets! We have a four month old lab and I wasn’t comfortable leaving him at a kennel. Staying with Jennifer was like him staying at home with comfortable surroundings and more personal care being taken care of in her home. Will definitely use her again!”

“Buddy really enjoyed his time at Diane's-- She did an excellent job with him across the 4 days. She was communicative, sent photos and flexible with drop-off and pickup times. A perfect option for a few dog free days while visiting the Crosslake area. Will definitely reach out to her again!”

About: My family and I love pets! We would love to have your dog stay with us and enjoy all the comforts of home! We have children who are sure to give your pet loads of extra attention. I am a (mostly) stay-at-home mom! This means your pet will have near constant companionship while in our care. They will be loved, cared for, and treated as a member of the family. We have a fenced in yard and go for a lot of walks! Your pet will be hanging out with a family, not left alone in a kennel.
About: I've had a dog since I was five. We got her from a cabin up North who was not a breeder. From the moment we got her to the moment she passed, she was my puppy. I taught her all the tricks she knew, I walked her, I did everything with her. She was 15 years old when she passed two falls ago. My family now just got a puppy during Covid. Again, when I am living at home (not at school), she's my dog. My fiancé and I moved to Pequot Lakes in April 2023. We now have a Springer Spaniel puppy named Maverick, who will be 2 in April. I work in Crosby, but I am out the door early in the morning and typically back by 3:30 pm. I could do a really early morning visit, but the afternoon/evenings would fit my schedule better during the week. Otherwise, I work from home on Fridays and the weekends my schedule is more open. When I go for walks, I ALWAYS make sure I have poop bags with me as I hate when people don't pick up after their dogs. I'm not afraid to pick up after dogs!
“I highly recommend Janet to watch your pet 110%!! My puppy has high anxiety / separation anxiety and you never would have known it!! He had a great time 😃. Lots of pictures and videos throughout the day.”

About: I have been surrounded by dogs my whole life and now have a german shepherd and blue heeler of my own that keeps life exciting with play and training. I am currently working part time from home so I have plenty of time to care for others pets and am available most days for care such as dog walking, pop-ins, or all day care! I have my own fur babies, a gentle giant german shepherd and a blue heeler and do training with them daily. We have 40 acres so they get plenty of exercise and play time.

About: Because I believe pets are family, I will treat your animals like mine….like family or children! So excited to meet new friends! Humans are cool too I guess! It will be just me checking in with your pet even though I mention my husband. I have a job where I can set my own schedule, so I’m pretty flexible. I start work at 3 so I have all day to tend to your pet. The latest I will ever be at work is til 8pm. I may be away on weekends for sporting events, but still reach out to see if I will be away all day. We have 3 dogs and a baby and no fenced yard so we would not board anymore animals. But as far as taking care of animals in your home, I will greet them and give them all the loves they are missing. I will tend to their needs, if you have a fenced yard I will play with them outside if not I will play with them inside being careful of surroundings. I will take your dogs on walks or cats if they like it! I will take your pet on a car ride to get them out too if you want. My pets love it!

“We have had the pleasure to work with Shaelie for about a month now. Shaelie is a great to work with. She is trustworthy and always on time. I was nervous about having to look for a new dog walker when our last one moved out of town, but I am glad that I was able to find Shaelie. Dad is comfortable and happy with Shaelie. Our Charlie is comfortable and happy with Shaelie. So, I am comfortable and happy with Shaelie. We will continue to use Shaelie from now on. 😊😊😊🥰”

About: I’ve been around and taken care of pets since I was a child. I have experience with animals with health issues as well, so that’s no problem! I also volunteered at the Morrison County Humane Society in high school. I’m a college student during the school year and do not have a full time job. I pick up hours as the weeks go on, so pet care is a perfect opportunity to let me be productive while also loving it. I will not care for animals in my home as I live in an apartment complex. I will gladly come to your home and travel within my area.
“Elizabeth is wonderful! We recently booked her for the first time, and she was so patient and gentle with our somewhat timid dog. Finley warmed up to her quickly & had the best time! Elizabeth is very professional- great communication and we loved the cute pics of our dog. We highly recommend her!”

About: I have had dogs my whole life. I currently have 2 rescue dogs, both neutered ages 3 and 4. I have participated in obedience classes. I am also working on getting my dog training certification. I have worked as a kennel assistant for 2 + years. During this time, I have had the pleasure of working with all sizes, breeds, and temperaments. I have also administered medications including insulin. I also have 2 cats and my kids have a guinea pig, rabbit, and bearded dragon. I also volunteer/foster dogs for a local rescue. I work part time at the kennel, so availability does vary depending on the week. Daily my pups get fed twice and let out as often as needed. I have a 6ft privacy fenced yard to keep the pups safe. Including a "safety square" to prevent the pups from escaping one of the gates. As far as your home, I will be able to accommodate whatever your safety measures are for your home

About: Hi! I’m a caring and reliable pet sitter with a real love for animals. I currently work at The Babinski Foundation, where I’ve learned a lot about taking care of pets with all kinds of personalities, needs, and behaviors. Working there has given me a lot of experience and knowledge about how to keep animals safe, happy, and healthy. As a pet sitter, I treat every pet like they’re my own. I take the time to get to know each one and make sure they feel loved, comfortable, and cared for. What makes me different is how much I truly care about animals and how much I enjoy spending time with them. I always give pets lots of attention, patience, and kindness. I want them to feel at home with me and to know they’re in good hands. As a pet sitter I go above and beyond to provide personalized care for each pet I look after. What sets me apart as a pet sitter is my genuine love and empathy for animals. I treat each pet as if they were my own, showering them with affection, attention, and patience. I strive to create a bind of trust and companionship with every pet, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved in my care.
About: i have dog sat for multiple people and love all dogs/ cats. i have experience with puppies and also older dogs. i would prefer to not have the dog be aggressive if possible. i have also taken care of a couple cats and would feel comfortable doing that also!

About: I had a dog growing up for several years where I not only took care of, but she was also my friend and companion!

I will create a safe, and trusting environment for your pet while providing tailored care specifically to your own pet. I want to provide a comfortable environment and build rapport with your pet. Meeting up with your pet prior before providing pet care will ensure this safe environment.
About: I have a young puppy myself and a very flexible schedule that allows me to let my dog and yours out as many times a day as needed.

“This was the first time we left our 1-year-old with people outside of our home. He did well and had lots of dogs to play with. Chris and Ashley were very accommodating and caring with Thor. Highly recommended. We'll be using them again.”

“We left our three Chihuahuas with Grace on Labor Day Weekend. We are rarely away from our dogs, so I can't help but be nervous when we are starting with a new sitter. I had a great feeling when we walked in the door. Grace sent me pictures and updates through the weekend. Our dogs did GREAT. Grace and her family bonded so quickly with them. She has one dog, and they all got along so great from the get go. Without a doubt, Grace will be our go-to sitter from now on. 5-stars.”

“Once again Jennifer exceeded our expectations with Grizzly. We traveled over Grizzly’s 1st bday and Jennifer went out a bought him a special treat. She treats him like her own so we can be comfortable leaving him knowing he feels at home.”

“Krista was great! She was flexible and sent cute updates. Finn came home a relaxed, happy boy. It looked like he had so much fun with her dogs! I’d definitely recommend to anyone looking for a responsible, reliable sitter. We hope to have Finn stay with Krista every time we’re in the area!”

“Kay's home was perfect for Mabel. After spending a weekend at a nice dog hotel, we discovered Mabel thrives more with the home vibe and more personal human interaction. Kay provided a beautiful setting on acreage that's a mix of safety with space. I liked that there weren't multiple dogs other than their friendly golden retriever Brandi that Mabel became friends with. Kay kept us updated daily with words and pictures which I really appreciate. I highly recommend Kay and will definitely go back!”

“Mike and Niki took wonderful care of our Poodle puppy, Baxter! They took him to a lake, a dog park, for several walks, and showered him with attention. They sent many updates and pictures, which we loved. We will definitely request their services again! Thanks Mike and Niki!! - Brandi & Chad”

About: I've had dogs in the house since I was a little girl! My boys really love dogs and have just as much energy! I want your pet to leave happy and ready to come back again! I am available on weekends, I am available on week days in the evening also. I just need to know your pets routine and can adjust as needed. I have plenty of space to walk your pet outside and can take them out as many times as needed. Our Rex sleeps with the kiddos and a wonderful snuggler and we love all this kisses and anuggles.
About: Animals have always been apart of my life growing up my parents bred English mastiff and pugs. I showed dogs in 4-H for 4 years and it really helped me amass so much knowledge. I have extensive experience with senior dogs and they hold a very special place in my heart. With us your senior will be in the best of hands. I don’t have a regular 9-5 so most of my day is spent home with the pups. I have my dogs on a specific feeding/potty schedule but I am very flexible to make your pup feel as comfortable as possible. I like to think I treat them as one of my one while keeping in mind if the owner has and rules or requests of their own.
“Samantha and family took excellent care of our German Shepherd and Yorkie, we will definitely use Samantha again, our dogs were taken care of like family. Can’t say enough good about Samantha and family”

About: Lifelong animal experience – I’ve cared for animals my entire life, not just as a job but as a way of life. • Real dog-owner perspective – With 2 dogs of my own, I understand routines, energy levels, training reinforcement, and emotional needs. • Calm, patient care – Great for shy, anxious, senior, or high-energy dogs who need consistency and understanding. • Individualized attention – I don’t do “one-size-fits-all” care. Walks, play, feeding, and downtime are tailored to your dog. • Trust & reliability – I show up on time, follow instructions closely, and communicate clearly so you can relax while you’re away. • Home-style love – Your dog is treated like family, not a booking. Hi! I’m Shelbie, a lifelong animal lover with experience caring for dogs and cats of all personalities. I live in a peaceful rural area with plenty of space for play, walks, and safe adventures. Your furry friend will get the love, attention, and care they deserve while you’re away! Dog Boarding (In My Home – Female Dogs Only) For the safety and comfort of all pets in my care, I only board female dogs. My Australian Shepherd has a strong personality, and keeping our home harmonious means I cannot accept male dogs. Female pups are always welcome, and they’ll receive lots of love, playtime, and cuddles in a safe, home environment. I work full-time from 8–5, but I’m happy to stop by during my lunch break for local drop-ins to take your sweet guy or girl out for a potty break, walk, or some love. I’m available after 5 PM, all day on Wednesdays, and all weekends. I’m reliable, flexible, and always happy to work with your pet’s routine whenever possible. I care for pets with patience, consistency, and lots of love—whether in my home or yours. While I don’t have a yard yet, I live close to a dog park and provide plenty of walks, playtime, and mental stimulation to keep dogs happy and exercised. I follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, play, and downtime. Safety and comfort always come first, and I make sure pets get individual attention, affection, and enrichment. In your home, I respect your space while ensuring your pet feels secure and relaxed in their familiar environment. I’m attentive, reliable, and treat every pet as if they were my own.
About: I currently have a German Shepherd myself, trained her from a puppy, she is 2 yrs old now. I have also helped my mom raise a couple of her dogs she has had over the years. Helped family and friends with their pets when needed as well. I love taking care of animals and would love to help you make sure your pets are well taken care of and love them like my own.

Please ir you have any other questions don't hesitate to message me with any of your needs. I would love to help out as much as I can.
