“Andrea is amazing! She is very open to our schedule and sends a bunch of pictures of our puppy having a wonderful time with her family, we know that Monty is in great hands when Andrea is watching him!!”
“Really enjoyed having our 2 dogs stay with Sara! She was flexible with drop off & pick up times which was very helpful. I also loved that she offered to let me come see her space before having my dogs stay over! Gave me peace of mind! And she even sent me some videos of my dogs playing which was super thoughtful! Will book again for sure :)”
“Our dogs were well taken care of and we got plenty of pictures that showed them having a great time! Love the fact that she does slow introductions to the animals she already has. Dayjah is super caring, has excellent communication and flexibility. We will definitely use Dayjah’s service again in the future.”
“Rene was terrific with my dog King. He had never been anywhere overnight before except with family members so I was a little nervous because he doesn’t do well with strangers. Rene won his confidence and mine. Thanks Rene.”
“Mikaela was wonderful hosting our pup. She was excellent at coordinating drop off and pick up. I really appreciate the pictures and updates she sent to us. Our dog was always excited to go back over and they welcomed him warmly into their home.”
“Our dog has stayed with Emily and Kajae a couple of times now and we have always had a great experience! They are great about sending updates and pictures. They are also very accommodating and easy to work with!”
“Chris is absolutely wonderful! She took exceptional care of Piper, keeping me updated and making sure she was happy, safe, and loved. I felt completely at ease knowing she was in such capable hands. Highly recommend!”
“Amanda was so great! She really listened to the things I wanted for Sadie and was so flexible with my needs and schedule. Her kids and dogs are also great. Sadie warmed up to them very quickly and I know she had a great time. Will definitely book again.”
“Words can’t describe how much my husband & I are satisfied with choosing Kelsey to watch our little Roxiie while we were on vacation . She’s very fast at replying , sent us pictures every day of our puppy but most of all bonded & cared for Roxiie like if she was part of her family. She is very kind & cares a lot !!! This was our first time having someone take care of our puppy & thankfully we were blessed with an amazing person to take care of her. She is DEFINITELY our 1st choice from now on! Thank you again so much Kelsey . ❤️”
“I cannot say enough good things about Tracy. I was genuinely so nervous boarding my dogs for the first time, and from the very beginning she made me feel completely at ease. She was warm, patient, reassuring, and so communicative the entire time. What really stood out to me is how naturally comfortable my dogs were with her. You can tell she truly understands animals and cares about them like they’re her own. She sent updates and photos, answered my anxious first-time-boarder questions with so much kindness, and made the whole experience feel safe and personal. Finding someone you can actually trust with your dogs is huge, and Tracy is absolutely that person. I’m so grateful we found her and would recommend her in a heartbeat.”
“Emily took such good care of our Daisy! We could tell right away, at our meet and greet, how much she loves animals. This was our first time using a Rover sitter, so we were a little unsure of how it would go. Emily put us at ease, by sending us daily updates and photos. She seemed to fit right in to the family routine. We could enjoy our trip, knowing that Daisy was happy, and well cared for! We'll definitely be scheduling with Emily again!”
“Karlee was excellent, Maverick came home exhausted from all the playtime he got! It was first time using Rover app, so was a little nervous going in, but she sent updates and pics. Will definately use her again!!”
“Amy provided an excellent experience for my dog! He was clearly well cared for and happy when I picked him up, Amy sent pictures/updates as promised every day. Will definitely ask for Amy again!”
About: I have owned and loved dogs my entire life . This is the very first time my home has been pet free, which gives your dog a huge advantage. My older kids and I are widely experienced with dog care, routines and safety. Because we have no resident pets. Your pup gets 100% of our attention all to themselves. We know exactly how to keep your dog safe, comfortable, and loved all weekend long. I offer dedicated laser-focused care exclusively on weekends. I’m available Friday afternoons until Monday evenings, meaning your dog will rarely if ever be left alone. I am fully available for frequent supervised leash walks, outdoor sniff sessions, leashed potty breaks at any time of the day and constant indoor companionship.
“Coco has stayed with Kj several times, & has had a fantastic time, every time. It was so much fun to see the videos & pictures that Kj sent us. Coco spent time outside playing & exploring a beautiful park with Kj & Bailey. When we picked Coco up, she was in no hurry to go home. She & Bailey said hello, & went back to playing. Thanks again Kj! We really appreciate the care & love that you give Coco.”

“Heidi is kind, professional and very responsive! We asked Heidi to check in on our cat. Our cat is selective with people and can be sassy and unsure about new people. Heidi was patient and calm with her and did everything we asked and more to make our cat as comfortable as possible while we were away. We plan to book with Heidi again. Highly recommend!”
“Mary was very reliable, kind and caring to our elderly cat. We received pictures everyday and felt comfortable to enjoy our vacation without worrying about JoJo. I would definitely hire Mary to watch any animal we might have in the future!”
“Shannon was great help with her drop-ins. I can definitely tell that while she was looking after my dog he enjoyed it just as much as she did. Her reports were very detailed and left me at ease while he was in her care. I would definitely recommend her services to anyone in the future!”
About: I’ve had animals since I was born. Dogs, cats, chickens, and eventually convinced my dad of horses. We’ve had 2 litters of puppies, so I’m experienced in pups as well! I went to Texas for 3 months to train barrel horses and learned so much! I’ve worked alongside my equine vet for MANY years, and have learned a ton from her as well. My love for animals is what everyone notices about me. One of my very first words, was “horse” believe it or not! I am 21, have TONS of referrals, clean driving record, and have been trusted to stay in other families home while they are away:) My current job took away some of my hours, so I’m only working Tuesday-Thursday 2:30-6:30. That being said I have a lot of free time before work, and time after to do drop ins ☺️ I live at home with my parents, as for right now I do not accept animals in home. I offer staying at families homes while they’re gone, doing drop-in’s, and walking!
About: My love of animals started at a very young age. I grew up on a farm with many dogs, cats, and horses. I look forward to caring for your fur babies as if they were my own. I know it can be difficult to leave them, but know they are in excellent hands. I work as a nurse so I do have some extra time off during the week/weekends. I am mostly available early mornings or the late afternoons/evenings. On my days off, I can be flexible! I am here to accommodate yours and your fur baby’s needs! I will provide a fun, yet safe environment both on and off leash. I would want the best care for my pet as well.
“Heather was great!!!! She contacted me with problems and sent pictures. She took amazing care of our kitties while we were away. She made a stressful weekend away for us a little easier. We will definitely book her again!!!”
“Alex did a great job taking care of our cat while we were away. She provided updates each day and communicated well. Our cat has been a bit under the weather lately and gets very stressed when we are gone so it was a relief to know someone was providing him with loving care. We would definitely book her again.”
About: have been around cats for as long as I can remember. Growing up on a dairy farm, there were always plenty of cats and kittens around. You could often find me in the hay barn spending time with them. Even at a young age, I went above and beyond to care for my furry friends, whether that meant providing special treats, caring for orphaned kittens, or making sure they were comfortable and well-loved. Today, I care for 9 barn cats and 2 outdoor/garage cats of my own. All of my pets are spayed or neutered because I strongly believe in responsible pet ownership and providing the best care possible. Over the years, I have been exposed to cats of all ages, personalities, and needs. I have experience administering medications and injections to my own cats and am comfortable providing basic medical care when needed. In addition to caring for my own pets, I have also looked after cats and other pets for friends and family. I understand that every cat is unique, and I strive to provide the same level of love, attention, and care that I would want for my own animals.
“Very flexible and accommodating. Josh does great with our cat and she absolutely adores him which says a lot because she’s normally very picky with who she gives affection to. We love having Josh watch over her and will continue to book with them in the future!”
“Lindsey was awesome!! I hired her to take care of my 5 week old kittens + one adult cat for the weekend, and I’m so glad I did! She was punctual on their feeding times, administered oral meds, and was very communicative when I reached out — and even when I didn’t. Definitely recommend!”
About: I love working with dogs. I have sat for a wide range of dogs sizing from a brussels griffen (14-15 lbs) to southern bloodhounds and black labs. Have given basic medication (a probiotic for the southern bloodhound), fed and walked dogs. I have also walked both together, so I am not against having 2 dogs at once. I have also used a couple different forms of restraints, such as gentle leaders, normal neck collars and shock collars while on walks to keep dogs under control as per owners instructions. One of the dogs I sit on a regular basis is an aging almost 10 year old southern bloodhound. I also have taken care of a shiba inu at weeks at a time, giving her longer 3-4 mile walks. My availability tends to lie in afternoons, evenings and some weekend availability as I have a 40 hour a week job. Generally what dog owners will like about my care is when I am given specific instruction, I will follow their instruction word for word, to keep their dog happy and healthy.
“We were very pleased with Rachel Ann. She spent a lot of time with our 2 cats and was not in a hurry to just get in and get out. She was professional and very personable. I’d recommend her to anyone who asks.”

About: I have fostered both dogs and cats in the past. From childhood to the present day, a home is not complete without some form of animal companion. I tend to be an early riser and am very flexible. Cleaning up after myself as well as your pets is my specialty. I enjoy camping and antiquing when there’s no critters to hang out with. I am familiar with many types of leash and collar. I prefer to keep a dog heeled on most of the walk, letting them run and play when it’s appropriate to do so. If you have a preferred method of control I’m happy to accommodate. I’m comfortable giving meds and have experience with all kinds of feeding. When sitting, I’d love to water your plants and get the mail-any little extras that you need. I often take my dad shopping or to doctor’s appointments, and set my own schedule with my other jobs. How long your pets can be left alone (if at all) is up to you! I’m great at following orders, especially written instructions; please tell me how you usually handle your pets so I can keep it consistent for them! I like to go for walks, and like it even more if I have company. I also always enjoy a good snuggle.
About: I’ve been working on the farm since I was able to walk. I’ve worked with numerous animals from dogs to cats to even donkeys and llamas. I love animals and making them feel loved and appreciated! I’m currently a stay at home mom and have plenty of time to hangout with your lovely pet! I’m available almost all day, every day! I will make sure your dog/pet gets everything he/she needs and that they remain very well taken care of while I am with them. My main priority is fulfilling the owners needs/wants for their pets.
“We thought Sara did a wonderful job in taking care of Wednesday. She was sensitive to Wednesday’s anxiety and nervousness about spending her first time at day care with Sara. We appreciate the effort made to help Wednesday be comfortable and secure. We will definitely book doggy day care with Sara again.”
“Amanda is an AMAZING dog sitter! She took such good care of our puppy. I was so nervous to leave my puppy for the first time but Amanda did a great job keeping me informed on her day and made me very comfortable. Will definitely be going here again!”
“When our normal sitter for our 18 year old dog was unavailable we selected Dayjah to fill in. As our dog is old, we are very protective with him. We spike with Dayjah on the phone first. It was clear that she not only was very knowledgeable about about pet care, but even more important, she loved animals. Our dog did fantastic with Dayjah. Infact, he did not seem to want to leave when we picked him up. Dayjah has my highest recommendation in providing safe and loving care for your pet!”
About: Dogs are lovable and a helping career is fulfilling. By helping humans with their canines I get the best of both worlds! Dogs have always been apart of my life, and recently we had our own 13yo mutt who came as a puppy, had a long full life, and passed away in my husband’s arms. Before that we had another mutt that lived to be 16yo, but she was a pound puppy we got at about 2yo. Also, our dog-niece lived with us for January 2024 while her parents vacationed. I love to love-on peoples’ dogs. Let's chat soon. I’ll be at your home when you need me to care for your feline furbaby. Most cats in my care have been drop-ins, including feeding, watering, and cat box cleaning. Cats with dog siblings have been an occasional treat to care for, as well. Just show me the ropes and I will do my best to copy what you do for your cat(s). Teach me your ways, Sensei!
About: I genuinely treat every pet as if they were my own, focusing on their individual needs, routines, and personalities. I'm dependable, attentive, and communicate openly with owners, ensuring peace of mind while they’re away. Whether it's extra playtime, careful attention to health needs, or simply being a calming presence, I go above and beyond to make sure each pet feels safe, loved, and happy. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine I plan my days around feeding times, walks, play sessions, and any special needs a pet may have. Whether it’s early morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening cuddle time, I make sure each pet gets consistent attention, exercise, and care throughout the day. Their well-being is always a top priority in my schedule. In my home, I provide a safe, comfortable, and pet friendly environment where pets can relax, play, and feel at home. I stick closely to their usual routines, offer plenty of attention, playtime, and outdoor walks, and make sure they have a cozy space to rest. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all instructions carefully to keep pets in a familiar, low-stress environment. I focus on maintaining their normal schedule, giving them lots of love and engagement, and keeping owners updated with regular photos and messages.
About: I have 4 playful dogs of my own (and sometimes a foster dog!), worked at a boarding facility a good chunk of my working career. Nice fenced in yard in a quiet neighborhood. I currently not taking in-house boarding due to having a foster dog at the moment, can do doggy daycare. * due to having 4 dogs of my own; I do NOT take non-social dogs. I work part time (some full time some weeks) so I am usually available. I am an active person at home playing with my own dogs, my dogs love having friends over. I am not taking in-house boarding appointments due to currently having a foster dog. Dogs have a nice fenced in yard! We pick up poop daily, and there are cameras inside and outside of the house. Frequently provide fresh water.
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life, and they have always been a big part of my family. I currently have a sweet Yorkie Poo and a gentle Newfoundland, and I truly believe every dog has their own personality, needs, and little quirks that make them special. I have over 5 years of professional dog grooming experience, which has taught me so much about dog behavior, body language, handling, and how to make dogs feel comfortable and safe. I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, from puppies to seniors in all sizes. I also have experience with dogs who need extra patience and care, including dogs recovering from procedures and blind dogs. Besides walks, daycare, and boarding, I can also offer basic maintenance care, such as brushing, baths, nail trimming and grinding, ear cleaning, and teeth brushing, feet - paw and face trimming. I love going on long walks (usually two one-hour walks a day with my own dogs), and I’d love to give your pup the same attention, exercise, and care while you’re away. My goal is for your dog to feel comfortable, loved, and cared for like they’re part of the family. Our day includes two long walks, usually around 8:30 AM and 5 PM to avoid peak heat. We enjoy walks, park visits, playtime, cuddles and enrichment activities throughout the day. I provide a safe, calm home environment with supervision throughout the day. I’m home most of the time, offer structured walks and playtime, and have crates available if dogs need quiet time or separation. While I don’t have a fenced yard, dogs receive plenty of outdoor exercise through secure walks and nearby park visits. I also have experience handling different breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities.
“Karlee has done an amazing job taking care of Thor! When I drop him off he gets excited to see her everytime and I know he's in good hands! Karlee is very good at giving updates and sending pictures during his daycare! I highly recommend Karlee's daycare service it is easily worth what you pay! Thanks Karlee!”
“Amy and her family were absolutely amazing and Marley loved going for Doggie Daycare! Thank you so much for taking such great care of our baby and for being so flexible as well!! We will definitely use you again for Marley care❤️”
About: Dogs have been my passion since my earliest memories. When I was a young girl, I was always training my family and friends dogs. I also would take care of my friends dogs when needed. I started to get involved with dog sports around the age of 12. In addition to this, I trained my dog to be a therapy dog. When I was 16 I started to volunteer at the Animal Humane Society in Golden Valley for a few years before going to college. I graduated from the University of Minnesota- Twin Cities with a degree in Communications and a minor in Leadership. Along the way, I took many classes to learn more about animal behavior and psychology. However, once I graduated, I was at a loss of what to pursue. It was during this time when I stumbled into working for Invisible Fence as a dog trainer. I found my true passion of training dogs through this. I have spent countless hours learning through hands on experience, shadowing other trainers, signing up for seminars/conferences and taking courses through a Pet Professional Program. In addition to this, I read countless books, listened to professional dog trainer podcasts, and watched videos. Now I run my own dog training business called Tator's Training. Pet care is about the well-being of the animal as a whole... starting with nutrition, enrichment, mental stimulation and being active. I have 3 dogs of my own that I work with every day. I target each category (nutrition, enrichment, mental stimulation, physical activity) to make sure their needs are met. I work with dogs daily and have a flexible schedule throughout the week. Every dog is treated like my own. I would never put an animal in a situation that isn't environmentally safe for them or puts them at risk. Safety involves having a safe place, being aware of what a dog is trying to tell you, having water available, following the established nutrition routine, allowing play, freedom (within reason), and providing daily enrichment.
“Lori made me feel very confident she would take excellent care of Kola. Provided updates throughout the day. Her home is clean and quiet. Highly recommend, will definitely use again!”
“we’re in the process of moving so we needed someone to puppy sit for us and jessica and her boys did amazing soon as we got home he was tired and calm! she provided us we lots of pictures! our puppy is only 8 weeks old so there was some hesitation but she did great at making us feel confident with him in her care!”
“Our dog is an energetic dog that also needs some supervising and Tracy’s place was a great doggy daycare spot for his needs! She has a big fenced in yard that he can run around in, and dogs that he can play with! Would recommend”
“Our baby was safe and happy. Sydney took good care of her for the day while we went to the state fair. We knew she was in good hands. Very kind and animal loving. Thanks for watching our baby Indigo!”

“Andrea is fantastic - I hired her to assist with walking on the street while I did counter conditioning with my dog (who struggles with reactivity) in the backyard. She is a Dog trainer as well, and was aligned with the entire process. I would definitely recommend her for any pet care needs anyone has!”
About: I’ve been working on the farm since I was able to walk. I’ve worked with numerous animals from dogs to cats to even donkeys and llamas. I love animals and making them feel loved and appreciated! I’m currently a stay at home mom and have plenty of time to hangout with your lovely pet! I’m available almost all day, every day!

About: I can provide a safe quiet home for your pet to visit when you’re away. I work from home and spend the days with our almost 8 year old boxer mix, Aggie. We love taking walks to the park near our home and we have a small fenced in back yard with a privacy fence. Aggie gets along with almost every dog and will sometimes play. She can be pretty vocal when she plays but is otherwise super quiet. She’s a great role model for younger dogs :) I work from home so I am usually home with the pets for most of the day. We take daily walks when the weather is good. We have a large dog crate if your dog needs. Our yard is fenced in and dogs wouldn’t usually be home alone for more than a few hours.
About: My house was known as the zoo. Reptiles, ferrets, birds, a goat, horses, a pony, dogs, cats, prying mantis. I have experience with most kinds of pets. I have helped raise dachshund and fostered dogs and cats. I have three days a week and start work at noon. Plenty of time to watch, or just drop by to make sure they are given some extra love. I have multiple cat towers and walkways for them to explore. I live in an area with lots of walking paths. I have a big yard to play in.
About: Howdy, and welcome to my home in Delano, MN! I have over 23 years of experience working with a wide variety of animals.

I welcome dogs of all breeds and sizes to join me as I explore this lovely land that I grew up in. I am a hiker, and invite all active pets to join me as we discover the various parks and trails in the Twin Cities and the surrounding area. I promise daily walks, active play, and plenty of snuggles. I offer house check-ins and walks, and am happy to keep your pets company in their home. I am very excited to return to this work now that I work from home and have the flexibility needed to properly provide pet care. I am happy to work with you and your pet's schedule to help ensure that they get the care they are used to in your home. I am happy to maintain you and your pet's routine to help ensure that they get the care they are used to in your home.
“Janneke is great with Leo. She gives him a great walk and when the weather doesn’t cooperate she will play with him inside and still give him a potty break. She’s very dependable!”
About: I tailor my care to you and your pets, with the goal of providing the same love and structure they’re used to. I love to learn their routines, quirks, and comforts so they feel completely at home. I come from a nursing background, so I am comfortable providing medications and treatments. I have a special love for elderly animals! I also have significant farm experience, so if watching over your farm is also something you need, please reach out! I have a very flexible schedule which allows me to focus on caring for your pets during our booking. I am happy to communicate my schedule specifics with you when we meet! My goal is to create a space where both pets and their owners can feel completely at ease. I maintain a calm, clean environment, and provide thoughtful attention and careful supervision.
About: I have a lifelong passion for caring for animals, always having a beloved pet by my side. With years of experience as the go-to pet sitter in my family and friend group, I take pride in giving animals my full, undivided attention. I genuinely enjoy spending time walking and playing with all types of pets. I am committed to providing reliable and dedicated care for your pets, anytime and anywhere you need me. As a full-time pet sitter, I’m just one message away, ready to meet your needs. Your pet’s well-being is my top priority. I ensure they are well-fed, hydrated, and never miss a potty break. Daily walks and engaging playtime are always part of the care I provide. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily and weekly routine, as it aligns with my passion for animals and my flexible schedule. Whether it's for my own pets or those I care for as a sitter, I dedicate specific times each day to feeding, walking, and playing with them. My focus is on providing loving, personalized care that meets each pet’s unique needs. I maintain the pet’s routine, following specific instructions for feeding, medication, and exercise.
About: *Note I go by Danny, but Rachel is my legal name. And then my partner Morgan sometimes helps me out on my visits. About me: I have taken care of cats all my life, and when it comes to dogs I've babysat more than I can count. I love them all. I can handle gentle types. Even loud ones. Let me know if they need special commands or to be talked to. I love to talk personally with the animals and just be with them. :) This is my primary job for now, so I would be available whenever YOU want. I also love and have my 3 lovely cats on a daily basis. We could sit and watch TV at home, or maybe learn something new? I like to grow with the animal. I also love to spoil them. :)
About: There’s something about a dog’s loyalty, personality, and the way they become such an important part of our lives that I’ve always cherished. My love for dogs began at a very young age; at just six years old, I had a Poodle of my own and was already learning the responsibility and joy of caring for a dog. Throughout my life, I’ve proudly had dogs of my own and cared for friends’ and family members’ dogs while they were away. We recently lost our beloved German Shepherd/Husky to old age, and although his loss was difficult, it reminded me how much joy dogs bring into our lives. I would love the opportunity to share that extra love and attention with another amazing dog while their family is away. I’m a lifelong dog lover with more than two decades of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and temperaments, ranging from 2 to 165 pounds. I genuinely enjoy getting to know each dog’s unique personality, quirks, routines, and preferences and tailoring my care to help them feel safe, comfortable, and at home. I care for every dog as if they were my own, providing plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, affection, and walks when weather permits and with the owner’s approval. My 60-by-55-foot fully fenced yard provides plenty of space to play, explore, and enjoy multiple potty breaks throughout the day. I also work from home with a flexible schedule, allowing me to be present and attentive to my furry guests. Whether your pup loves cuddles or prefers personal space, I’m happy to follow their lead and respect their individual needs. With experience caring for dogs who are anxious, fearful, reactive, or more challenging to handle, I’ve developed strong observational skills and can recognize signs of stress, discomfort, illness, or injury. I’m also comfortable administering medications, following specific care instructions and routines, and providing basic first aid when needed. Most importantly, I love spoiling my furry guests because, in my opinion, they’re on vacation too! 🐾 You’re welcome to bring their regular food, treats, favorite toys, bed, blanket, or other comfort items to help make their stay familiar and special. I’m dependable in all weather conditions and always prioritize the safety, health, and comfort of every guest. If my calendar shows that I’m unavailable, please feel free to reach out anyway. I’m flexible whenever possible and happy to see if we can find a time that works. I look forward to meeting you and welcoming your furry family member into our home! ****** ******** ***** I’m proud to share that I’ve had the opportunity to volunteer with Can Do Canines and regularly participate in dog-related events. These experiences have been incredibly rewarding, and I’m grateful to be able to contribute to the care, training, and support of these remarkable dogs as they prepare to change lives. I have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to be readily available and provide pets with plenty of attention and companionship throughout the day. I also have a fully fenced-in yard, which is ideal for multiple potty breaks, outdoor playtime, and exercise throughout the day. Caring for a pet comes down to consistently meeting their physical, emotional, and health needs. The exact details vary depending on the animal, of course! -I have a 60-by-55-foot fully fenced yard and pet gates in the house (if needed); -I love to go for walks with pets; -I love to cuddle and play with pets if that’s what they are into; -I feed them a balanced diet per owners’ instructions. Fresh water is always available. -I’d love to comb them if tools are provided from owners; -I provide lots of daily update pictures and/or videos; -And would be open to any reasonable requests owners might have.

About: I've had two cats for 10 years. I also took care of a black lab while his owner was at work. I played ball, potty breaks, cuddles & plenty of love. Also pet sit for friends while they were on vacation for a week, cats. I'm currently unemployed at this time and occassionaly volunteer or attend events, mostly for a week or two, out of town. But for the most part, I'm available. I care for pets while the owner is at work and the owner keeps me up to date on services needed. I'm willing to house solely by myself for short or long term periods of time, 1 week up to a month.
About: For over 5 years, I've been the go-to pet caretaker for many in my community. From energetic puppies to wise senior dogs, I've had the joy of caring for them all. My experience spans walking, feeding, bathing, and even some basic training. Every pet is unique, and I pride myself on recognizing and attending to each one's individual needs. Whether your fur baby needs patience, energy, or a gentle touch, I'm here to provide it. Balancing a remote job gives me the flexibility and opportunity to dedicate substantial time to pet care. I’m fervent about ensuring our furry companions get ample play and attention. I am open for boarding on weekends, and my weekdays post 11am are entirely devoted to caring for pets. Rest assured, your pets will enjoy ample time of fun and care with me! Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets. In my home, I've created a pet-friendly environment, free from hazards and with plenty of play space. All pets have access to clean, comfortable resting spots and fresh water at all times. If I'm taking care of pets in your home, I'm respectful of your space and follow all guidelines provided. My goal is to ensure that whether I'm in your home or you entrust your pet in mine, they are safe, happy, and well cared for.

About: I love working with dogs. I have sat for a wide range of dogs sizing from a brussels griffen (14-15 lbs) to southern bloodhounds and black labs. Have given basic medication (a probiotic for the southern bloodhound), fed and walked dogs. I have also walked both together, so I am not against having 2 dogs at once. I have also used a couple different forms of restraints, such as gentle leaders, normal neck collars and shock collars while on walks to keep dogs under control as per owners instructions. One of the dogs I sit on a regular basis is an aging almost 10 year old southern bloodhound. I also have taken care of a shiba inu at weeks at a time, giving her longer 3-4 mile walks. My availability tends to lie in afternoons, evenings and some weekend availability as I have a 40 hour a week job. Generally what dog owners will like about my care is when I am given specific instruction, I will follow their instruction word for word, to keep their dog happy and healthy.

“Andrea is amazing! She is very open to our schedule and sends a bunch of pictures of our puppy having a wonderful time with her family, we know that Monty is in great hands when Andrea is watching him!!”
“Really enjoyed having our 2 dogs stay with Sara! She was flexible with drop off & pick up times which was very helpful. I also loved that she offered to let me come see her space before having my dogs stay over! Gave me peace of mind! And she even sent me some videos of my dogs playing which was super thoughtful! Will book again for sure :)”
“Our dogs were well taken care of and we got plenty of pictures that showed them having a great time! Love the fact that she does slow introductions to the animals she already has. Dayjah is super caring, has excellent communication and flexibility. We will definitely use Dayjah’s service again in the future.”
“Mikaela was wonderful hosting our pup. She was excellent at coordinating drop off and pick up. I really appreciate the pictures and updates she sent to us. Our dog was always excited to go back over and they welcomed him warmly into their home.”
“Our dog has stayed with Emily and Kajae a couple of times now and we have always had a great experience! They are great about sending updates and pictures. They are also very accommodating and easy to work with!”

“Words can’t describe how much my husband & I are satisfied with choosing Kelsey to watch our little Roxiie while we were on vacation . She’s very fast at replying , sent us pictures every day of our puppy but most of all bonded & cared for Roxiie like if she was part of her family. She is very kind & cares a lot !!! This was our first time having someone take care of our puppy & thankfully we were blessed with an amazing person to take care of her. She is DEFINITELY our 1st choice from now on! Thank you again so much Kelsey . ❤️”
“I cannot say enough good things about Tracy. I was genuinely so nervous boarding my dogs for the first time, and from the very beginning she made me feel completely at ease. She was warm, patient, reassuring, and so communicative the entire time. What really stood out to me is how naturally comfortable my dogs were with her. You can tell she truly understands animals and cares about them like they’re her own. She sent updates and photos, answered my anxious first-time-boarder questions with so much kindness, and made the whole experience feel safe and personal. Finding someone you can actually trust with your dogs is huge, and Tracy is absolutely that person. I’m so grateful we found her and would recommend her in a heartbeat.”
“Karlee was excellent, Maverick came home exhausted from all the playtime he got! It was first time using Rover app, so was a little nervous going in, but she sent updates and pics. Will definately use her again!!”
“Amy provided an excellent experience for my dog! He was clearly well cared for and happy when I picked him up, Amy sent pictures/updates as promised every day. Will definitely ask for Amy again!”
About: I have owned and loved dogs my entire life . This is the very first time my home has been pet free, which gives your dog a huge advantage. My older kids and I are widely experienced with dog care, routines and safety. Because we have no resident pets. Your pup gets 100% of our attention all to themselves. We know exactly how to keep your dog safe, comfortable, and loved all weekend long. I offer dedicated laser-focused care exclusively on weekends. I’m available Friday afternoons until Monday evenings, meaning your dog will rarely if ever be left alone. I am fully available for frequent supervised leash walks, outdoor sniff sessions, leashed potty breaks at any time of the day and constant indoor companionship.
“Coco has stayed with Kj several times, & has had a fantastic time, every time. It was so much fun to see the videos & pictures that Kj sent us. Coco spent time outside playing & exploring a beautiful park with Kj & Bailey. When we picked Coco up, she was in no hurry to go home. She & Bailey said hello, & went back to playing. Thanks again Kj! We really appreciate the care & love that you give Coco.”
“I have an older dog that had never been boarded before. Angie said all went smoothly. I was concerned because my dog is old and is used to being just around me. Angie must have made her feel comfortable. Highly recommend her and I will definitely use her services again if needed.”
“We feel incredibly lucky to have found Donald for our 2 dogs Moxie & Gracie .. they stayed with him for 9 days straight due to us listing our house and going on a vacation at the same time.. if we weren’t stressed out enough we were now going to leave them with a stranger for 9 days .. oh my, this was the least stressful part of everything going on .. Donald communicated daily with updates/ pics and videos about each dog / we could tune into his ring cam to see them playing outside.. they visible were so happy playing with him and the other dogs - he allows them to choose where they want to sleep and lounge .. we picked them up today and they have been sleeping most of the day! Great vacation for all ! We will definitely use Donald again !!”
