“Katrina and Drew were great! They were quick to communicate and were very accommodating to minor schedule changes. Our pup did so well she ran out of food! She usually skips meals when away from home and I pack accordingly. Katrina quickly replaced the food to keep Schatzi on schedule!”

“Aish and her family were so sweet and attentive to our fur baby. I was a little bit concerned (but expecting) that our pup will probably not eat at first due to new surroundings. But I was wrong. He felt welcome and secure and had a lot of fun playing with Scooby that he felt at ease immediately and was eating regularly. Aish sent me lots of pictures of him. :) I would definitely recommend Aish!”

“Chelsie was an awesome dog sitter. She watched our two dogs and sent many updates throughout their stay. She was also very accommodating to our schedule. We would definitely have her watch our dogs again!”

“Kelly is superb at caring for our dog. When we leave, our dog doesn’t eat well, but Kelly coaxed her to eat well! She gave Grace plenty of outdoor time as well as snuggles and attention. We love Kelly and our dog does too!”

“After our meet & greet with Beth, we knew River would be in good hands. As a rescue, his care is somewhat unique. Beth did a professional job assimilating him into her home and in meeting her dogs. We feel very fortunate to have found her and highly recommend her to other pet owners.”

“Shelley was great with our dog! She sent us photos and updates daily and was very communicative. She stopped by our house after pickup to grab something I accidentally brought with me when I picked up my dog. When my dog saw her again, she got all sorts of excited and showed her tons of doggie love which showed me how much my dog enjoyed her time there. The yard isn't fenced in which was a concern for me but it ended up not being a problem.”

“This is my first time using Rover and the experience was great! Becky had a meet and greet with me and my pup, and was very communicative during before and after his stay! I got updates and pictures daily and my dog Stanley, appeared to have had a great time and was well cared for while I was gone. I will book with Becky again!”

“Lisa & Drew and their young boys took excellent care of Buck. Lisa communicated above and beyond with updates on how Buck was acclimating to a new environment as well as cute pics of Buck playing with the boys. I highly recommend Lisa & Drew if you are looking for a trust worthy and responsible pet sitter for your pet.”

“Ann was amazing. She took care of our senior dog with some medical needs and aging and gave Louise exactly what she needed with such positive kindness. We got pictures and videos and felt like our sweet little old lady dog was truly in the best care during our trip. I will definitely use Ann again because she was incredible.”

“Great care and service. Kept us informed over the five days our Bernedoodle PJ was there. Appreciated the updates and pictures she sent us. Our pup got along with their dog so it was like a little Summer Camp for Bernedoodles. Will definitely book wth them again when the need arises. Thanks so much!”

“Dee is the best! She takes great care of our little Luna. She is the only sitter we want to use. She sends us pics throughout the stay which is so nice to see too. I can tell Luna loves staying with her 😎”

“Our beloved Australian shepherd was well-cared for by Steve and Diane. I am certain we missed him more than he missed us. Their care has made us much more comfortable with the idea of traveling more often to the places he cannot come.”

“Carine and Eric took excellent care of my older Boston terrier. They kept me up to date on his activities and provided photos while we were away. I felt comfortable knowing he was in caring and capable hands. Will gladly book with them again for future care!”

“Can't say enough great things about Denise & Michael. My pup has visited twice so far, and they treat him as if he was their very own! I'm allowed total peace of mind when I travel. My ONLY complaint is that they don't live closer. 😊”

“Michael, Vanessa, and their daughters were great to our dog Stanley. They provided plenty of updates and made a ton of time to take Stan out for play time and exercise. Unfortunately he seems bored to be home with us now. We will definitely take them up on their services again!”

“We could not be happier having Ana & Michael care for our two dogs. We know they were well cared for, and we were kept informed about how well they adapted to Ana & Michael’s home. Knowing your pet is staying in a pet-loving home is such a wonderful feeling. Thank you Ana & Michael!”

“Lauren did drop in visits for my three kitties while I was out of state and she really helped relieve the anxiety that can come with leaving your fur babies. She gave updates every day with pictures which made me smile every time. I was very happy to see that all the kitties felt comfortable enough to come out while she was there.”


“We Love using Angela and her boys. They are so attentive to our animals needs and follows all instructions carefully. Our kitties need special foods to keep them regular when we are on vacation. Since we’ve used Angela, we no longer have Vet visits after every vacation! Truly wonderful!! Additionally, we trust her completely having access to our house.”

“Kaitlyn was awesome! Each day she checked on my kitties she sent me a paragraph of what she did and pictures of the clean litter box, full water and food dish and most importantly that my kitties were happy and well cared for. I will be using her again for a future trip.”


About: Hi!! I’ve grown up with cats my entire life and absolutely adore working with them! I work patently and whatever is needed I can do that for you!! I have worked with lots of different breeds, personalities, and more. I am very comfortable all around! I’m open to anything needed such as medication, litter boxes or just play time!!

“Immediately upon meeting Camila, we could see her love for animals, and knew our cat would be in great hands. Camila sent us many beautiful photos of Bella throughout the weekend, which we thoroughly enjoyed and looked forward to receiving each day. We could see in the pictures that Bella was having a lot of fun being cuddled and played with. We would definitely recommend Camila to other pet owners and will reach out to her again when we need someone to watch our cat! Thanks, Camila!”

“Robyn does an excellent job! We have 3 cats with an involved routine with very lengthy and specific instructions. Robyn is intelligent, communicates well, responds quickly, and follows detailed instructions well. She also has a calming presence and speaking voice, which is incredibly helpful for cats. She knows how to respect a cat’s autonomy. I was impressed that she approached them in a way that lets them decide if they want to receive attention. She provides excellent notes and photos with each visit. We are relieved to have someone like her to care for them while we are away.”

About: As a dog owner of two and lifelong animal lover, I’m very comfortable caring for dogs of all ages and personalities. I’ve had dogs since I was 12 and am familiar with everything from puppy energy to senior dog needs. I enjoy staying active outside and making sure pets get exercise, attention, and lots of affection — including great puppy cuddles. Your pet’s comfort and routine are always my priority. I work from home and can work from anywhere so I have almost unlimited flexibility and can’t wait to meet and get to know your oets! I provide attentive, personalized care based on each pet’s routine, personality, and comfort level. In my client’s home, I aim to keep pets’ schedules as consistent as possible with regular feeding times, walks, play, and plenty of affection.

I treat every pet like one of my own and understand the trust it takes to have someone care for them in your home. I’m respectful of your space, communicative, and committed to making sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved.
“Shannon was fantastic with our pups! We were a last minute booking due to other plans falling through and I couldn’t have asked for better care for the dogs! She sent us many pictures throughout her 30 minute visit. I knew my dogs were well cared for. I will definitely use Shannon again in the future. :)”

About: I taught my cat how to sit! He probably forgot by now but I still feel accomplished haha! I’m comfortable doing nail clippings with cats who aren’t overly aggressive, as mine get clipped regularly at home.

About: My husband and I are former dog foster parents and love meeting/spending time with new dogs! We have two resident (foster fail!) dogs: Ace, a shy pitbull who LOVES other dogs and Tesha, a rambunctious tripod who LOVES people. We especially love older dogs in our house but are open to dogs 1 year and up. We have a fully fenced in backyard and a tie out available for outside play time. We have space to keep dogs separated if you have a dog that is shy or needs very slow introductions (we have a three level home). Our resident pups are allowed on our bed if they choose, but we have plenty of dog beds around too, and we do not allow them on our couch. We will do our very best to accommodate your pups needs and keep you updated on how your four legged family member is doing while you are away! I currently work from home and am able to take breaks to allow potty and attention breaks. My husband is also home most of the time and will be available when I am not. We like to do slow introductions to other dogs to ensure the comfort of our resident dogs and the visiting pups. We have the space to crate or allow roaming on separate levels if needed.
“Carrie and Mark are so amazing with Ollie! He loves going to their house for daycare, in fact he didn’t want to leave tonight! They love having him and take such good care of our boy.”

“Marill was just wonderful! She's clearly a dog-lover, and Ollie had a fabulous time at her house! He played all day with her other dogs (as is evidenced by the many great photos and videos she sent me throughout the day), and came home last night happy and exhausted. He slept 15 hours straight! The idea was for him to get some energy out, and let me get some work done - so mission accomplished! I'll definitely rebook with Marill.”

“Ann has been an absolute dream dog sitter. I know my dog is in excellent hands and I bring him every week. I recommend Ann to anyone, even those like me that is extraordinarily particular about who watches my dog.”

About: Hi, I’m Becky. I’ve had dogs in my life for over 25 years. I have dog-sat for several friends, fostered for a dog rescue and I look forward to caring for your furry friend. I have a super friendly dog, Spencer who will be here for some play time, too. I am at home with my dog Spencer, so I will have plenty of time to play, cuddle, go on walks, and care for your dog. Your dog will feel loved and right at home here. I have a partially fenced yard, and a sturdy tie out for potty breaks, or just lounging on the patio. Inside there is room to play with toys, or just cozy up, and look out the window ( My dogs favorite past time) I will be sure to send pics and videos of your dog, so you can see how much love and attention they’re getting.
“I adopted my first dog and reached out to Shayla soon after. She responded quickly and I felt very comfortable bringing Gabi to her. Gabi had fun and they took great care of her. They also responded to my constant messages throughout the day checking in on her. I continue to use her for doggy daycare.”

“Leanna was so kind, attentive, thoughtful, and such a joy to meet. Our Bindi was so well cared for — we can’t recommend her enough! Thank you so much for a positive, A+ experience! 🐾”

“I truly cannot say enough good things about Sarah and her wonderful family. From the moment i dropped him off, I could tell he felt safe and comfortable with them, which gave me such peace of mind while I was away. I wouldn’t hesitate for a second to have them watch my dog again- he will definitely be back!”

“I am new to the area, and Chelsie was very close by. She responded promptly and communicated clearly. I brought Riley over, and Chelsie kindly met me at the car. I was having some difficulty with the long lead, and Riley immediately went up to her as if they had known each other for a long time. When Riley heard the dogs barking inside the house, she led Chelsie to the door, which was quite charming. I realized I forgot to mention something to Chelsie, but she responded right away. On my way back to pick up Riley, I got caught in traffic, so Chelsie graciously brought Riley out to me, and Riley happily got into the car without any issues. After we returned home, I noticed that Riley's card was filled out, and there was a detailed note, along with photos of Riley's day, showing that she had gone for a walk and played with her dogs. Overall, I would rate the experience as excellent, and Riley will definitely be visiting again.”

“Aish and family are amazingly friendly people who really care about what they do and truly love dogs! I immediately got pictures and videos of them and they were so happy! We will definitely use them again!!!! 🐾💕🐶🫶🏻🐾”

“Elizabeth cared for our Corgi and Cockapoo for two days while we were visiting the area. Our girls had so much fun with Elizabeth and her two daughters. We will absolutely book with her again.”

“Murphie has so much fun with Lonni & Steve. She is happy to arrive and greets each of them excitedly. She knows she is going to have a fun day of play :-) Murphie comes home a tired and happy pup each time she visits. Thank you Lonni & Steve for taking such great care of her”


“Ashi did an amazing job at watching my two dogs. She kept me updated throughout the day with photos and video. They loved playing with her super sweet dog Simba and completely wiped each other out. Will definitely be back again.”


About: Growing up in Minnesota, I’ve had dogs my entire life and have also had a cat for most of my life, so caring for animals has always been a big part of who I am. In addition to caring for my own pets, I have house sat for several families and looked after their pets while they were away, providing dependable and loving care. I understand that every pet has their own unique personality, routine, and needs, and I strive to make them feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for while their owners are away. My experience babysitting, working at a daycare, and coaching children has also made me responsible, patient, and attentive, qualities I bring to every pet I care for. My goal is to treat every pet like my own, giving owners peace of mind that their furry family members are in good hands. I recently graduated from college and am home in Minnesota for the summer, which gives me full-time availability and plenty of flexibility to care for your pets. My schedule is very open, allowing me to accommodate walks, drop-in visits, house sitting, and overnight stays throughout the week and on weekends. I’m committed to providing dependable, attentive care and can easily adapt to your pet’s routine and needs. In my home, pets will be welcomed into a safe, loving environment in a friendly neighborhood with a nearby park and plenty of walking trails for exercise and enrichment. I understand that every pet has their own routine and comfort level, and I strive to make them feel as comfortable and at home as possible. When caring for pets in their own homes, I treat both the animals and the home with the utmost respect. I will follow all care instructions closely, maintain your pet’s regular routine, and provide plenty of attention, playtime, and affection to ensure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away.
About: I have loved dogs since I was a kid. Even though my parents wouldnt let us get one, I have had them in my adult years. Most recently a cavapoo. I'm the type to get down on their level and be their best friend through playing or snuggling. I work from home full time and currently live by myself. I have no pets at the moment so let me watch yours! If I have to drive my kids (dont live with me) anywhere, I could either crate your dog or bring them with on a car ride. My kids love dogs just as much as I do. I dont have any pets with me, but I've had one dog that was crate trained and another that had the run of the house when the family was gone. I'll make whatever works for your dog work for me.
“Kerstie, Brian and Aurora treated Oreo so well during his visit that I wasn't sure he would come home with me! I got updates on how he was doing that included photos and showed me he was feeling at ease and having a good time. I know he will be excited to visit again when he needs a break from his new little brother. Thanks for treating him like your own.”

“Kayla was great. Was on time, took the pups on a nice long walk, sent a few pictures, and communicated with me when she picked them up and dropped them off. Will definitely be reaching out for here services again.”

“Megan was great with Thor and Loki. Great with her communication and sharing pictures of their walks. Will definitely be reaching out to her again and would recommend her to anyone!!”

“Robyn is beyond great with my dog! We started with a meet and greet walk that went very well but after my dog was shy without me there. Robyn was very good at helping Trusty warm up to her! She is always open to suggestions when it comes to me and my dog's needs. Now Trusty absolutely adores her! She's always very punctual, takes good pictures,and leaves good notes on her walks. When she isn't able to walk my dog, she has notified me far earlier than what I expected. I leave for work at 5:00 in the morning and I've had time to readjust before I leave. Hopefully recommended!”

About: We are a cozy, warm, loving family of four who love animals! I (Jenny) rescued my first dog, Summit-a black lab mix many years ago. He was with us over 14 years and we loved him so much! We just recently adopted a kitten a little over a year ago. She is a tuxedo house cat named Smokey. Drop-in visits and dog walking are what we are able to offer as of right now. We may bring boarding back into the mix when Smokey is a bit older. Jenny works part time and has time for drop-in visits as well as dog walking. If allowed by the pet parents our kids (10 and 12) would also love to help out! We play with Smokey in our home with balls, springs, socks! I am happy to pet and play with your pet.

I currently work part time so I have a lot of time to spend with your four legged family members! Contact me for more information about my schedule!

I work remotely, so my time is very flexible. I’m happy to drop in for a visit or walk any time of day, rain, blizzard, or shine! I live in a quiet house with an eleven-year-old Miniature Schnauzer who loves playing tug-of-war and snuggling with his furry buddies. When I’m working with a pet, I always play off of the animal’s behavior and respect their boundaries. The health, safety, and cleanliness of your pet are my top priorities.
About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was young. About 10 years ago I started watching animals for Family and Friends while they went on trips. I usually stay and watch the animals since I work from home I will be with the animals most of the time. I can also drop in and let animals out if needed. I’m very flexible. Working from home gives me that availability. I’m able to stop over and let animals out if needed as well. I can feed, walk, give meds etc. I care for the animals in their homes. I’m unable to take care of them at my house. A lot of my friends and family prefer that so the animals don’t have to change their environment.
About: I've taken care of dogs along side my mom for over 10 years. She boarded dogs at our house when I was a kid and I would assist her with everything such as feeding, walking, giving baths, etc. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets. My current job allows me to work from home at any time throughout the week. Meaning I have all the time in the world to take care of your pet(s). At my home, I have a fenced in backyard that is decently large and perfect for fetch and other games. There are also a lot of trails around my house that my dog and I walk a lot. Also, I can easily crate your dog if needed. At your house, I can walk your dog, play with them in the backyard, anything you’d like!

“Katrina and Drew were great! They were quick to communicate and were very accommodating to minor schedule changes. Our pup did so well she ran out of food! She usually skips meals when away from home and I pack accordingly. Katrina quickly replaced the food to keep Schatzi on schedule!”

“Chelsie was an awesome dog sitter. She watched our two dogs and sent many updates throughout their stay. She was also very accommodating to our schedule. We would definitely have her watch our dogs again!”

“Kelly is superb at caring for our dog. When we leave, our dog doesn’t eat well, but Kelly coaxed her to eat well! She gave Grace plenty of outdoor time as well as snuggles and attention. We love Kelly and our dog does too!”

“After our meet & greet with Beth, we knew River would be in good hands. As a rescue, his care is somewhat unique. Beth did a professional job assimilating him into her home and in meeting her dogs. We feel very fortunate to have found her and highly recommend her to other pet owners.”

“Lisa & Drew and their young boys took excellent care of Buck. Lisa communicated above and beyond with updates on how Buck was acclimating to a new environment as well as cute pics of Buck playing with the boys. I highly recommend Lisa & Drew if you are looking for a trust worthy and responsible pet sitter for your pet.”

“Ann was amazing. She took care of our senior dog with some medical needs and aging and gave Louise exactly what she needed with such positive kindness. We got pictures and videos and felt like our sweet little old lady dog was truly in the best care during our trip. I will definitely use Ann again because she was incredible.”

“Our beloved Australian shepherd was well-cared for by Steve and Diane. I am certain we missed him more than he missed us. Their care has made us much more comfortable with the idea of traveling more often to the places he cannot come.”

“Carine and Eric took excellent care of my older Boston terrier. They kept me up to date on his activities and provided photos while we were away. I felt comfortable knowing he was in caring and capable hands. Will gladly book with them again for future care!”

“We could not be happier having Ana & Michael care for our two dogs. We know they were well cared for, and we were kept informed about how well they adapted to Ana & Michael’s home. Knowing your pet is staying in a pet-loving home is such a wonderful feeling. Thank you Ana & Michael!”

“Our dog Rio had a BLAST with Rachelle and Dan. They were very detailed oriented when it came to Rio’s special needs. They also sent the perfect amount of updates and pictures throughout the stay. Definitely will book again!”

“We are SO thankful to have found Mary! Teddy was so well taken care of and loved while we were away. He got lots of walks, snuggles, and playtime with his new bestie, Izzy! Mary is absolutely amazing and we are definitely booking her for our next trip!”

“Cheyann- was the best dog sitter we've ever had! Her daily photo updates made me feel at ease knowing our family dog was well taken care of. Cheyann has a gentle demeanor that made our dog feel right at home!”
“Gus had a great time with Cynthia and I knew he was well taken care of and loved. He also had fun playing with the other dogs there and I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing he was in good hands and having a good time while we were away. Would definitely return and recommend!”

“Leo seems to have had a wonderful time. His behavior this evening is as if he just had a normal active day. Clearly he was comfortable enough to have cuddled up next to you. And he always enjoys a good walk.”


“Leslie was the best. We found her last minute after our dog sitter cancelled. She treated our dog like one of their own. So flexible, sent me great pics throughout the week. My dog was so well cared for and so loved. Highly recommend!”
