“Judy had a great time staying with Grace. It was really nice for her to be able to play with other dogs. Our dog seemed really relaxed and happy around Grace. It's great having peace of mind knowing our pet is safe while we are out of town.”

“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!”

“Melissa was so great with my cat Sapphire. She was able to administer her oral medication and her ear medication, which she hates. And Sapphire is scared of people she doesn't know, and Melissa was able to gain her trust within the quick drop in visit time. She was even super kind enough to bring in our packages that were dropped off while we were gone!”

Tanya & Anthony B.

“Nancy was amazing! This was only my second time using Rover and SO thankful for this sitter! She made drop in visits to take care of my little, maybe naughty, kitty for almost a week. Nancy was excellent at communicating ans really goes the extra mile for you and your pet. Thanks again, Nancy!!”

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.

“This is my first experience using Rover. My boyfriend and I were camping in Akeley and we needed a dog sitter for the day. Nancy was very communicative and sent pictures throughout the day. I do believe my dog, Holly, played hard because she is tired this evening. There were other dogs and they all seemed to get along well. I highly recommend Nancy.”

Wendy S.

“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: Use this link for $40 off your first booking (new customer rules and conditions apply): https://www.rover.com/sit/kristz43730 I grew up with dogs and love hanging out with and taking care of other people's dogs. I understand how important special diets and medications are, and how to keep their current schedule. I want to provide a stress free environment with maximum amount of fun and a positive interaction. During your pup’s stay, you can expect that he or she will be treated as one of my own. I also make an effort to stay home and be present during their stay (alone/kennel time is extremely limited). I would love the opportunity to take care of your pet and if you have any questions or concerns, please ask! I work from home, so I have a lot of time to spend with your pup and attend to their needs throughout the day. I'm very willing to work with you as far as figuring out drop off/pick up times that work for both of us. Let me know what your dog likes to do for fun! We can go for a walk in the neighborhood, play in the (fenced) yard, go to the dog park, or just chill!

“Jeannette and Zachary took great care of our little puppy! So thankful for such a loving dog sitter!”

Brittany M.

“We were vacationing in the area and needed someone willing to take our puppy for a few days. Grace was very responsive and willing to help us out. Ranger was able to spend a full day making new friends and romping around her fenced in yard. We'll definitely reach out when we're back in the area.”

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.
