Personalized care for your dog or cat - Longville

“Krista was great! She was flexible and sent cute updates. Finn came home a relaxed, happy boy. It looked like he had so much fun with her dogs! I’d definitely recommend to anyone looking for a responsible, reliable sitter. We hope to have Finn stay with Krista every time we’re in the area!”

“Our dog Jazz has a hard time adjusting to new situation, so was not sure how the first day would go. Grace sent pictures right away showing Jazz had settled in. We would book with Grace again.”

“Diane provides great care and a comfortable environment for your family dog. We were hesitant to use anyone, but found Diane truly cares about Goose and treated him as her own.”

“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!”

About: I've had dogs in the house since I was a little girl! My boys really love dogs and have just as much energy! I want your pet to leave happy and ready to come back again!

I have plenty of space to walk your pet outside and can take them out as many times as needed. Our Rex sleeps with the kiddos and a wonderful snuggler and we love all this kisses and anuggles.

“Nancy was fantastic! She was extremely flexible and accepted the drop in visits on short notice. The picture updates she sent put my anxiety to ease. I couldn’t have asked a better person to take care of my cat while away on vacation. 10/10!”

Laken S.

“Melissa was fantastic to work with! She was able to gain so much tryst from my cat, Sapphire, who is very shy and scared of people she doesn't know. She even went above and beyond to get my cat out of a small crawl space in our attic so she could get her medicine! Thank you so much Melissa!”

Tanya & Anthony B.

“Carter takes good care of our little kitty and is reliable! Thanks so much Carter!”

About: I will care for your dog as I would my own! Experienced animal/dog lover, I’ll give your dog time & attention while you are away. I am calmly assertive and responsible and will give your pup hugs & kisses and/or runs and ball-throwing, whatever he/she may need that day. I have a flexible schedule and thought it would be a fabulous way to spend my day ? I am a professional equine bodyworker- so I work with horses on a daily basis. I have had multiple dogs throughout my life. As a matter of fact, I can’t remember a time that I haven’t had a dog. I enjoy dog training shows & interest in dog psychology. In the process of getting my dog certified as a therapy dog. We also have a pet pig named Lola. ☺️ In slower times of the year in my other animal business (specifically winter), I will dedicate time to dog walking when many are not wanting to be outside (cold) but dogs still need exercise. I have (limited) transporting experience also. I bring my dog to a variety of places when I travel & am used to keeping her safe although she listens to commands well & is socialized. I am confident I provide a safe environment for animals.

About: I have cared for all kinds of animals since I could remember, from raccoons, rats, horses, and Guinea pigs to your more normal cats and dogs and lizards. I currently have a pup so I do pet care every day all day. She is a part of my family so she is never lacking when it comes to her care and exercise. I currently live in a townhouse and I don’t have a yard so we go for long walks on the edge of town multiple times a day as well as car rides. In my clients home I use the resources they have available (big yard either fenced or not) or we will just go for walks throughout the day. I make the care of the client the priority.

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: I am a huge animal lover! I have 3 cats, 2 are 9 years old and 1 is 8 years old, all boys, and I also have a 6 year old black lab. I take my cats outside, take them for walks in there stroller, play with there toys, make frozen tuna snacks, and love them with everything I have they are currently in the cities with my mom. My dog is very active we got for walks everyday, play with all his toys, LOVES to swim/bathtime and he’s a huge water baby. I also make homemade dog treats and ice cream! Anything my pets want they get and would do that for anyone’s pets because they all deserve the best life possible! I treat any animal with love and compassion and can’t wait for your pets to spend time with us! Currently my cats are staying in the cities with my mom and it’s just me my boyfriend and our dog! It fits in my daily schedule from the moment I wake up and until I go to sleep! Breakfast, a few snacks through the day, potty breaks, and supper time. Make sure they are taken care of, feed, potty breaks and play time. I also have a 6 year old black lab at home with me and your fur baby will have someone to keep company as well other than me.

“I highly recommend Janet to watch your pet 110%!! My puppy has high anxiety / separation anxiety and you never would have known it!! He had a great time 😃. Lots of pictures and videos throughout the day.”

Lori H.

“I was incredibly relieved to find it’s not male dogs my dog has issues with, it’s the dog. Her black lab is incredibly sweet and docile. My dog actually whined with excitement as we got close, the second day. She was super flexible with drop off times”

Shelly N.

“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!”

Nichole N.

“Heidi was wonderful, Buddy seemed to really enjoy his time with her!”

Nichole N.

About: I've had a dog since I was five. We got her from a cabin up North who was not a breeder. From the moment we got her to the moment she passed, she was my puppy. I taught her all the tricks she knew, I walked her, I did everything with her. She was 15 years old when she passed two falls ago. My family now just got a puppy during Covid. Again, when I am living at home (not at school), she's my dog. My fiancé and I moved to Pequot Lakes in April 2023. We now have a Springer Spaniel puppy named Maverick, who will be 2 in April. I work in Crosby, but I am out the door early in the morning and typically back by 3:30 pm. I could do a really early morning visit, but the afternoon/evenings would fit my schedule better during the week. Otherwise, I work from home on Fridays and the weekends my schedule is more open. When I go for walks, I ALWAYS make sure I have poop bags with me as I hate when people don't pick up after their dogs. I'm not afraid to pick up after dogs!

About: I have been surrounded by dogs my whole life and now have a german shepherd and blue heeler of my own that keeps life exciting with play and training. I am currently working part time from home so I have plenty of time to care for others pets and am available most days for care such as dog walking, pop-ins, or all day care! I have my own fur babies, a gentle giant german shepherd and a blue heeler and do training with them daily. We have 40 acres so they get plenty of exercise and play time. I keep many different toys and treats in the home for rewards! I am a animal lover and treat my pets like my kids!

“Nancy is a great communicator, and an excellent dog walker. My pup is always excited to see her.”

“Carter took good care of our elderly lab and sent two pictures of her while on the walk”

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.

About: I had a dog growing up for several years where I not only took care of, but she was also my friend and companion! Growing up with a dog was a good responsibility and taught me how to care for something else. I’m currently in occupational therapy school and I have a month and a half break where I am looking to earn some extra cash! I would be available on weekdays or weekends. I will create a safe, and trusting environment for your pet while providing tailored care specifically to your own pet. I want to provide a comfortable environment and build rapport with your pet. Meeting up with your pet prior before providing pet care will ensure this safe environment.
