“Amanda was a wonderful cat-sitter for my little guy - we had recently relocated and I didn’t want to add stress by boarding him when I left on a longer vacation. Amanda came over and met him (he loved her instantly), and then sent me regular pictures and updates while I was gone. She’s someone who truly seems to love animals, any little creature would be lucky to be in her care!”

“Josie has watched my cats multiple times now, and we're so thankful to have her as our sitter! My cats love her and we trust her so much. She sends pictures, detailed updates, and makes sure she checks off every item on the to-do list with my 3 girls. I highly recommend her!”

About: I spent my whole childhood around grandmas house and barn cats and loved them so much! I also had a house cat growing up and have learned how to care for them properly!

“She showed up every day and spent a goodly amount of time and effort trying to befriend a very standoffish cat. We will ask for her again should the need arise.”

About: Newly SAHM looking to keep busy! Animal lover. No critter too big or too small. Clean, safe, healthy, spoiled, and mannerism/obedience training are my specialties. Will always keep you in the loop for ease of mind! I treat yours like I treat mine… SPOILED. Former nurse, now newly stay at home mom and dog mom traveling with my blue collar man. Looking to stay busy while trying to afford my coffee and thrifting addiction. I can come to you- I will usually have my child with me but safety will always be taken into consideration. I am considered a “helicopter mom” to both my fur babies and my human baby. I promise your animals are in the best hands. I always leave things better than I found them!

About: As a cat owner and former foster, I understand how to make cats feel safe and comfortable, especially shy or anxious ones. I’ve cared for a variety of cats, from energetic kittens to senior cats needing extra patience and attention. I tailor my care to each cat’s unique personality, whether that means playtime, quiet companionship, or gentle grooming. I also ensure litter boxes stay clean and fresh, creating a stress-free environment for your feline friend.

About: Hi I’m Sydney! I LOVE all animals, during the school year I work at an overnight doggy daycare. I’ve completed full online certification for that job and so you can trust your pets are in safe and reliable care with me! I also just love to spend time with animals and I think your pet and I would be great friends;) My schedule is super flexible and I’m a great communicator! Whatever you’re schedule may be I feel confident we can make it work in a way that’s best for you and your pet!💕 Comfort is priority when it comes to your animals. Whatever you as the owner suggest is best for your pet is best for me! I pride myself on my ability to provide high quality and custom care!

About: I can be trusted to walk, feed/water, clean up after, trim nails, administrator medication for animals of all kinds. I have owned reptiles, cats, and dogs for many years. And worked on a farm. I have a full time job with flexible hours to suit your needs. As long as we speak ahead of time about a schedule. Available most weekends and holidays I am unable to care for cats or dogs in my home due to already having those pets myself. But upon discussion, you would be able to come to my home to see how I care for them.

About: My background in training dogs through agility classes, working with shy and special-needs animals, fostering cats, and managing dogs of all sizes at a daycare makes me uniquely qualified. I’ve also cared for farm animals, including geese, and I’m skilled in pet grooming. My patience, reliability, and ability to adapt to each pet’s unique personality ensure your pets are safe, loved, and well cared for. I have a steady work-life balance, working Monday-Friday from 6 AM to 3 PM. Pet care fits easily into my routine, as I am available for early morning, evening, and weekend visits. On Mondays, I travel to Duluth for agility training, so I can take pet-sitting jobs in that area. I’m also willing to drive within a 100-mile radius of my home to provide care, ensuring flexibility for pet owners who need reliable and loving service. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets, whether in my home or a client’s. I take the time to understand each pet’s needs, personality, and routine to create a stress-free and comfortable environment. I’m experienced with shy animals and work patiently to help them feel safe. In a client’s home, I respect their space while ensuring their pets receive attentive care, from feeding and playtime to maintaining a clean environment, including litter box upkeep. Whether it’s keeping a routine, providing enrichment, or offering extra care for special needs pets, I always prioritize their well-being.
