“Jennifer took wonderful care of my dog while I was away, and I really appreciated how attentive and communicative she was throughout the stay. She sent daily updates, checked in about any concerns, and was very thoughtful when my dog didn’t want to eat the first day — which is normal for her in new environments. I also appreciated the time she took to have us come over beforehand so we could meet her and her dogs and make sure it was a good fit. She was responsive, caring, and clearly experienced with dogs. I felt very comfortable leaving my dog with her and would absolutely recommend her to others.”
“Drew was very responsive. He also was very understanding about a new allergy complaint for my dog which required Benadryl and ointments, which he was gracious enough to administer during her stay. Would definitely recommend!”
“Wow!!!! Honestly I am extremely thankful for this amazing family that took care of my scared shy dog! They constantly sent pictures and videos with updates! They made my dog feel right at home. I would definitely recommend them. Your dog will be in the best hands”
“David was great to work with and we felt very comfortable leaving our pup in his hands. He consistently communicated with us providing updates which gave us peace of mind that Bo was in good company & care.”
“Miranda and her home have been an incredible experience and home away from home for our dog. We are grateful for her special care and attention. Her communication is top notch!!”
“Thank you, Charity!! Your time and attention spent caring for Pepper Pig is truly appreciated. You catered to her needs and helped her adjust to a new environment with such care. I’ll definitely rely on you again in the future!”
“Jasmine was awesome! I got pictures and regular updates:) you can tell that jasmine cares about your pet, I wasn’t worried about Alfie at all well he was in her care!”
“Michelle was fantastic with Juniper. Juniper is a super nervous dog and Michelle was very patient with her. Gave me plenty of updates knowing how nervous I was. Will definitely book with her in the future!”
“Brooke did an excellent job taking care of my dog, Bruno. He’s a large German Shepherd and can be pretty anxious in new situations, but she handled him with patience and care. She clearly knows what she’s doing and took extra time to make sure he was comfortable. She also kept me updated throughout the day, which I really appreciated. Everything went smoothly, and I wouldn’t hesitate to trust her with him again.”
“I wished we had more time to talk about how our 2 dogs were for her but they were too excited. This is our first time going out of state for a week and having to put them in a kennel/Rover. That’s why I chose Rover because of the options to get pictures and videos while I was gone. Would definitely go to Stacy again!”
“Erin, Brandon, and kids took such good care of Poppy. They kept in close communication, and even sent pictures! Poppy was well loved and cared for while with them and came home a happy dog! Thank you!”
“Linda is amazing. She sent us pics and videos every day. Tango had a back yard and a couple of friends to play with. He was never left alone or put in a kernel. Linda was very thoughtful to invite us over for meet and greet before we left him for a week. Will definitely work with her again!”
“Ashley was so accommodating by taking Piper with only 24 hr notice. Awesome communication and met us at the door as we walked up to her house at drop off. Piper was spoiled during the day with walks and lots of love. We were updated with pictures and videos during the day. Highly recommend Ashley and we will be contacting her when our next appointment is scheduled at Mayo Clinic.”

About: I have taken care of dogs for over 10 years. I often dog sit for my parents and friends. I am very adaptable to the needs of any animal! I currently work full time day shift and always have weekends off. On the weekends, we like to take walks to the park to play or just stay home and cuddle up on the couch and watch movies. I have a fenced in backyard. I work 10 minutes from home so I am free to stop in and let dogs out throughout the day.

About: I’ve always had cats around me and they are my favorite to care for! I love bottle feeding and caring for little kitties. I grew up on a farm so we had little kittens every spring! I also have experience with special needs cats so I’m comfortable giving meds if needed.
“We’ve worked with Britteny for the past two years and she’s been great. Our cats are comfortable with her, and I always feel at ease leaving them in her care when we’re away. She’s also administered oral steroids to our asthmatic cat, which has been a big help. Reliable, kind, and good with cats. Highly recommend!”
“Caroline took wonderful care of my young guinea pig. She provided him with snuggles and floor time. His daily care directions were followed and I returned to a well fed, clean cage, and lively little guy. Her communication was quick and precise. I would highly recommend her and will be using her again for my guinea pig in the future!”

About: I've been around dogs my entire life, both big and small! I've helped take care of my family dogs since I was 7, and been working with dogs beyond my family for 2 years. I have experience working with puppies, senior dogs, and dogs with disabilities. Your pup will never be wanting for affection! I'm working full-time during the week, so I am available for house sitting on weekends. I am available for dog walking and play dates during the weekday evenings and weekends. I can provide your fur baby with the bathing, brushing, medicating, exploring, and loving that they need to thrive. I have a small, friendly pup of my own who can play with your dog, and a car that can take them to the dog park if desired. Otherwise, I'm more than happy to provide them every comfort of their own home.

“Andria's family and dog are all very friendly towards my puppy. Nori had a blast there. He got home and fell asleep within 30 minutes, so I didn't have to spend a lot of time playing with him in the evening:) Andria also captured a few great photos of Nori running in the snow with his new friend. Love the photos!”
About: I have been a pet sitter for many years. Also, I have always had a dog and cat of my own since I was a young child. I will treat your pet as if it was my own. I feel it's important that animals get exercise and will take your dog for walks and make sure they are comfortable and happy. Your pet will get lots of love in my home!! I work from home and can attend to them anytime. I will walk them as I do for my own dogs. They will get to play outside in a large wooded area. I live out in the country on 8 acres. You pet will be in paradise! Your pet will sleep in my home. My other dogs are friendly. They are used to having other dogs stay with us. I can also care for your pet in your home.
About: I’ve been taking care of my family's and friend’s dogs for about 5 years now and would love the chance to care for more! I will care for your fur babies like they were my own! ❤️🐾 I’m currently a stay at home mom. All my kids are in school, so my 3 year old yellow lab is my only child home during the day! I have plenty of time to give lots of love and attention to your dogs. I have a fenced in backyard and a friendly yellow lab who loves to play with other dogs. I enjoy going on walks and playing outside with dogs but also love to snuggle on the couch with them too!
About: Relocated here from Iowa. Enjoy working with different dogs. Pet lover. I completed 6 months of Veterinarian Assistant classes online. Life happened and I had to take a pause. But I am thinking about going back and finish obtaining my associates degree in the field. So whether it be house sitting with the animals or simply doing some walking or activities, I don't mind and will enjoy my time with them. Its something I enjoy as one of my hobbies. I am available during the week days. Every other weekend I work night shift at this time. I enjoy play time with pets because they too have different personalities. Love Dogs. We cuddle mostly and play. Take walks outside. Play fetch with their toys. It's cool to go to the backyard and be socialable with nature. I think it helps with sensory awareness.
“I absolutely loved my experience with Andrew. My husband had major surgery and our Winnie got a little stir crazy at the hotel. Andrew treated her with such love and care. He treated her like one of his pack members. I have never left my dog with anyone but family before so I was a little nervous. After a couple pictures and texts from Andrew I could tell he had been spending quality time with Winnie and knew her quirky personality. We have to come to Mayo Clinic often for testing and I will not hesitate to use Andrew's services again!! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!”
“Megan was phenomenal from start to finish. Communication was ultra clear and I know our puppy Micaiah was very well taken care of. She thoroughly enjoyed the company of her 9-month-old black lab. We will definitely be hitting up Megan in the future. Highly recommend!”
“This was Chance’s first time at daycare/boarding. He seemed to have a wonderful time. Ben and Jennifer kept in touch and sent videos. They were easy to talk with. Chance came home and slept all night.”
“First time at doggy daycare for our 7 yr old Chi mix - both he and our puppy were well cared for and arrived home this evening tired snd happy. Knowing they were safe made our time away worry free! Thank you Stacy for a great experience.”
About: I work from home. I have a small backyard and a park nearby with a walking path. I have 3 children who are good around pets. We have one dog of our own who is a 70lb, 12 year old female. My experience comes from my own pets and checking on friend’s pets while they are away. I am available in the mornings before work, can be flexible about lunch and breaks to leave and check on pets and end my work day at 5 (Mon-Fri). If I go into work, it is often on a Wednesday and my parents come check on my dog while I am away for the day. My home: I have a fenced yard, 1 older dog, and gates in the house to keep the dogs on the main floor. I do not have a crate or dog toys. My dog prefers long walks, scratches and a good nap. My dog is a large poodle breed.

Pets can be allowed on the furniture, but will adjust to the clients instructions. I can crate them as well.
About: I’ve been around and taken care of animals all my life especially dogs! I couldn’t imagine my life without them! They truly are a part of the family!

I have a fenced yard with plenty of space for running and playing. I have 3 dogs to help keep your pet company! I also have dog beds for resting and a foldable crate stored in case it’s needed.

About: I have cared for everything from puppies to senior dogs as well as cats, small mammals (guinea pigs, hamsters, etc), and lizards. Each animal has such personality that I am excited to learn. During the school year (September-May) I am available evenings and weekends. During the summer (June-august) I have way more flexibility and can work with your needs. I unfortunately cannot take care of any fury animals in my home due to my family members allergies. However, I will follow whatever guidelines you may have.

About: I absolutely adore animals and love spending time outdoors taking dogs on runs, walks, or just giving them all my attention. I have a fenced in yard for dogs to run and play! I love going to new locations and be able to spend my time outdoors enjoying the fresh air with a little furry friend. My morkie, Adela, hates being left alone at home and would rather be outdoors chasing squirrels or going on walks so if you have a pet like this, I will be super excited to have the opportunity to keep your dog busy while you are busy at work, running errands, or have a party to attend. I am excited to hear from you and am willing to accommodate to your needs! If we are dog sitting on the weekends, we ensure we are home and spoiling the dogs! You will find us on long walks, playing ball, sitting outside in our back yard, or giving scratches! During the work week, my husband works from home and is able to entertain the dogs throughout the day. Walks are a must in the evenings every night! I have a fenced in yard for dogs to run freely! Dogs are allowed on all the furniture are are treated just as if they are my own! Daily walks and treats are a must!
“Lindsey was the best dog-walker we could ask for... We have a spirited labrador retriever, and she handled him beautifully, safely and timely. I always received pictures, video and a status report with every walk. I would recommend Lindsey to anyone seeking a reliable dog walker.”
“Hound has been great with our dogs and they seem relaxed and happy when we get home. Manages the needs of our very old husky and young border collie mix very well so they both get the attention and exercise they need.”
About: Hi Im daysha. Growing up I've always had pets growing up from when I was on a farm to when we moved to the citys. I've always had love and care for pets and always wanna provide a safe and protected space for them. I grew up with 3 bunnies 5 dogs and three cats in my life time. I have such a wonderful life to me allowing me to understand people and pets. I'm really open minded and full of communication fun and bubble. Just looking for people I can help out:) I am currently working at the red room down town in Rochester Minnesota. I tend to work from. 5-8 on weekdays and weekends 5-10 but with hosting I tend to get cutt early if it's slow. Im always open to working around other people scheduling but would love a understandment of my schedule too Sadly I do live in a small apartment that doesn't allow me to have pets in and out unless there my own but I am very trustworthy and am very responsible and respectful of other people homes. I was taught growing up to never disrespect other folks homes . I will always follow by the rules and always communicate when something is going on or if I have any questions. I'm here to protect And provide a safe space and comfort for u and your pet
About: I've did a lot of pet-sitting for family growing up, so I have plenty of experience taking care of your furry friends! Fun fact: I even watched my cousin's flying squirrel once as a kid I work full time and am doing pet sitting/walking on the side. My work starts later than most people, so I am super available for morning walks! I am available everyday before 9 and after 6. On Thursdays and Sundays I am available all day :) I love to send updates and photos to pet parents throughout the day and I am super easy to reach over the phone if you need anything! I also like to give homes a small tidy up before I leave (free of charge) which would include removing pet hair, wiping down things down, and leaving the space better than I found it.
About: I love animals. I have my whole life. I became a certified dog trainer, through Animal Behavior College in November 2018. I am pet CPR and First Aid certified. I work at Mayo as an Administrative Assistant. In college I had an internship at a animal shelter in Chicago where I got a lot of hands on experience with different types and temperaments of dogs and cats. I am a very compassionate, kind, organized, and caring person. I cant wait to work with your dog. Whether it be walking, boarding, and dog sitting. I have not met a dog that I dont get along with. I know how important peoples pets are to them and I will do anything I need to to make sure that you know your fur baby is being taken care of.
“Devon has always taken great care of our dog, and she has been flexible with last minute schedule changes. She has boarded our dog in her house and given regular walks. Highly recommend!”
About: I have always loved dogs since I was a kid. I was always reading books and watching tv shows like "Dogs 101" to learn about the different breeds and needs. I would also help out with any family members or family friend's dog(s) that needed watching. Ever since I was 16 years old I have been sitting dogs and every time my parents leave for vacation, I will watch the family dog for as long as they need. I believe dogs deserve the utmost love and care while they owners are away, insuring a happy reunion. I'm currently available all day, everyday. I can visit your pet in the morning, afternoon, and night depending on what fits their care the best. I can provide a safe, comfortable environment as making a dog feel safe and secure in their own home is top priority. I can give baths, give medication orally, play, explore, and love them generously. I will make sure there will be as least of a disturbance possible when I visit clients home, making sure it is the same as when they left. Pets deserve the most love and top care while their owners are away.

“Great setting on a farm in rural Lake City. Lovely place for Luna to spend a few days running around and exploring :) Communication was frequent and picture updates were fun and appreciated.”
“I had a great experience leaving my 2 dogs with Donna. One of my dogs is older and anxious but she took excellent care of him. She has a big yard with plenty of room for the dogs to run and get exercise. I loved that she sent pictures and updates every few days while I was gone. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter.”
