“Joy took wonderful care of our dog. She sent pictures and was very communicative. Our dog seemed very happy while in her home. I would definitely recommend Joy to others, and we plan on using her again.”

“Miko was in good hands! He came home tired and happy because he got to play with a couple of other dogs during his stay. We also had to come home a day early due to bad weather, and she accommodated us with no issue. Highly recommend!”

“Jenna took great care of our puppy and clearly loves animals! This was our dogs first time away from our family and she was extremely well cared for and happy/relaxed on her return. Jenna was professional and asked all the right questions about our dog’s routine and quirks. We loved receiving the daily photo updates and texts—it really put our minds at ease! Thank you Jenna!”

“Beth and family were awesome to my fur baby. My GoodleDoodle enjoyed all the attention and play time and came home tired out which was great for me to relax to. Will definitely use again!”

“Gloria is everything you want in a pet sitter! She kept us updated the entire time and took care of our dog as if he was her own. It’s evident how much she cares for animals (her “kids” 🤍). Definitely recommend!”

“Heidi was so wonderful!!! I was in town for a wedding over the weekend with my dog and Heidi watched my dog. She was so accommodating, easy to communicate with, and I was very comfortable leaving my baby with her. I wish Heidi was closer to my home because she would be my go-to sitter for my dog every time! I couldn’t be happier with working Heidi. Thank you!!!”


“Pete had a GREAT time with Colette! He came home super happy and very tired from all the playing. Colette was great with updating me on how Pete was doing and being very flexible for drop off/pick up. My trip extended very last minute and Colette was very accommodating. I can’t wait to bring Pete here again in the future.”
About: Hello! I am a life long pet lover and healthcare provider. I live on a farm with lots of fresh air and space to run. I can’t wait to meet your pup! Feel free to message me with any questions or to schedule a meet-and-greet. I work Tuesday -Friday. Also available for potty breaks during the day. I am mostly available on the weekends but could easily make a day during the week work as well. Our yard is not fenced in but we live on a dead end road. Dogs will be leashed while outside and supervised. Pets allowed in house and living room.
“Lynn was GREAT!!! I have had the same sitter for about three years so I was very nervous to live my Millie with someone new, but Lynn made me feel very comfortable! You can tell she’s an animal lover. After meeting her, I knew Millie’s safety and comfort was going to be #1. When I picked Millie up, she was jumping on Lynn like they had know each other for years. Highly recommend!!”

About: I’ve had my dog Zelda for eight years now. Still, each day is just as fun as the last. Her personality is never a challenge, and I love to play with her and take her on walks. My extended family also has many dogs I grew up with, so I am experienced with different types of dogs. I typically have free time in the mornings, as well as in the afternoon. Very willing to be flexible. My weekends are almost always open during the day; and that would be the best time for me to do longer days of care rather than just a couple hours of watching your pet. When I am not at school I have more flexibility during weekdays. In my home, my yard is not fenced, so Zelda is usually on a handheld leash (for quick outside time) or on a long leash (usually tied to the ground) when she wants to do her own thing. I always am supervising her outside to ensure her safety. I am very willing to adapt to different ways of having your dog be outside, as long as I am informed of them beforehand. When inside I always keep a close eye on my dog, as she tends to get into trouble here and there. I always make sure I have toys on hand, as well as treats. Whenever I am taking care of a dog I always try to make sure they are as comfortable as possible.
“My dog was very well token care off and was very happy, she sent videos I could show my daughter that he was doing ok. I would recommend jordan to anyone and well for sure being leaving my dog again with her!”

“Maisie was such an amazing help to us! She was very attentive to our newly rescued dachshund and was extremely communicative with us during the sit. She really cares about the pets she sits and we had a great experience with her helping sit Sophie while we were away for Thanksgiving. We will absolutely be booking her again, thank you! 🩵”

About: I’ve had a dog ever since I was a little girl! I love watching dogs play together & joining in on the fun! We have wide open spaces out here at our place! Your dog will be sure to enjoy the outdoors here with my 3 dogs, 3 kids and myself! My current work schedule is Monday-Thursday, so I’m available for weekend care Friday-Sunday! Other arrangements can be made if more days are needed! I’m very flexible! Your dog will be so cared for out here! Although we don’t have a fenced in area for your dog to play yet, I will ensure that your dog will get out as much as possible whether it be in a leash or indoors.

About: Hi! I’m Aleah, a lifelong animal lover with years of hands on experience caring for pets. I grew up in a home with 6 dogs and 3 cats, so caring for animals has always been a huge part of my life. From energetic puppies to senior pets who need a little extra patience and attention, I’m comfortable with animals of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I currently have a dog of my own, which has given me even more experience with daily care, exercise, training reinforcement, and understanding each dog’s unique needs. I know how important it is to find someone you trust with your furry family member, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply having a calm and reliable companion while you’re away, I’m happy to provide personalized care to keep them comfortable, safe, and loved. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! Because I currently have open availability, I’m able to be flexible with scheduling and can accommodate last minute bookings, extended stays, and pets who need more frequent attention throughout the day. Pet care is something I genuinely enjoy, so I have the time and dedication to focus on providing reliable, attentive care for every animal I watch. I care for every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owner is away. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication administration (if needed), and plenty of attention and affection. In a client’s home, I respect both the pet’s routine and the owner’s space, providing regular updates, photos, and communication for peace of mind. I make sure pets get the exercise, mental stimulation, and companionship they need while maintaining a clean and secure environment. When caring for pets in my home, I provide a calm, safe, and pet friendly environment where they can relax and feel at home. I pay close attention to each animal’s personality and needs, whether they prefer active playtime, long walks, cuddles on the couch, or a quiet place to rest. My goal is always to ensure pets are happy, healthy, and stress-free while their families are away.
“Christina and Cody were fantastic. This was Zane's first time boarding and they cared for him so well and kept me updated with photos, which I loved! Lovely Family! Will definitely book again!”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for over 7 years through friends, neighbors, and family. I genuinely love spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I’m dependable, patient, and attentive to each pet’s individual needs, whether that means walks, playtime, feeding, medication, or just extra cuddles and attention. I also understand how important communication is, so I always send updates and photos to help owners feel at ease. I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention, playtime, and care throughout the day. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, overnight stays, and pet sitting during weekdays and weekends. I always try to accommodate each pet owner’s routine to help pets feel comfortable and stress-free while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I make sure pets stick to their normal routines as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special care instructions. I provide a calm, clean, and loving environment and pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and needs. I’m also happy to send regular updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is being well cared for while you’re away.
About: Hello! I am a HUGE dog lover and I would love to hang out with your fur babies! Long walks, beachin, park dates, fetch, and cuddles are some of my favorite things, if this sounds like your pup I think we will become the best of friends! I have many years of dog walking and sitting experience and we always have the best time and I look forward to seeing my little friends again soon. I have no preferences on breeds and any size. I do have a Puggle (pug and beagle) at home and he gets along well with all dogs. If you have any specific questions, I’d love to connect with you and answer any question you may have. Looking forward to hearing from you soon! ~Ciara

About: I have a cat who I’ve had for 4 years. I have always had a passion for animals and try my best to be in tune to their languages. I currently own one cat, which requires pilling. If you have a pet that needs a gentle and loving sitter, or even someone to play and keep them stimulated, then I would love to take care of them! I am currently working full-time as a social worker and I am available from 6pm to 10pm Monday through Friday, and 24/7 availability on weekends. I try to let the kitties/puppies take the lead within reason. I like to try to engage them and play, but I will be gentle and calming if they are showing signs of stress. I’m very observant with body language and try to accommodate for them while still maintaining structure.

“Ali did drop-in visits for our three cats while we were out of state for our wedding. She updated us daily with messages and photos. Our cats were happy and well-cared for when we got home. Highly recommend!”

About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life. I have watched dogs for my friends and family before. I work a a vet clinic and have experience with many breeds I do work normally 4 days a week. But I am available after work during the week most of the time. And am pretty flexible on weekends. I am not able to have pets in my home. But would be able to walk your pet or let them out for the bathroom while you are gone. Or watch them in their home.

About: While I haven't owned any cats myself, I've grown up around them. My family and friends have always owned cats, and I absolutely love being able to take care of them. Whether they're playful, cuddly, or chill, I will give them the best care possible.
“Brienne did a fabulous job taking care of our animals while we were on vacation. She followed our routine perfectly and was very considerate and caring to our pets. We loved getting new pictures at each visit. Brienne is truly a 5-Star Pet Caretaker ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️! We will definitely use her again!!”

About: I’m a animal love person every animal I have had has been a rescue animal and adoption. I love to take dogs for walk, throw toys for them. I treat the animals like there my own. After a fun day outside with them, they can relax by getting a bath. I donate to animal shelters and sell homemade dog treats.. I have 30 years dealing with parrots. I had 10 parrots of my own. I’m home everyday I give a hundred percent to the pets. I have a vehicle that can take them to talk parks. When I take dogs outside I go with them to give them company. I have a fenced yard, toys, I have televisions throughout the house I play animal plant all day for them, when it’s hot out I don’t keep them out long, I bring them in to give them water and treats.

“She was great! She was on time, sent us lots of pictures, kept us informed on everything, and went above and beyond. Our dog was content and happy when we got home and we are very appreciative.”


About: I work in a veterinary clinic as a vet assistant and have worked with cats for a long time, even before the clinic! I’ve always had kitties in the house and know that every cat has their quirks! Cats can be more hesitant to warm up to people but I make it my mission to find that good scratch spot so we can be friends!

“Onnika was AMAZING! I just got a new kitten and my other cat is still adjusting to that change and she took every step to make sure both of them not only felt comfortable but loved. She took both of their feelings into consideration and tried out different things to see what was working best for them and what seemed to make them the happiest. For an anxious cat mom who has never left her babies with anyone besides family/friends she was a life saver and sent so many pictures and videos that put my mind at ease. I recommend her SO much and will definitely be using her again in the future :)”

About: I have been around animals for as long as I can remember. I have the biggest soft spot for them, and I have two dogs of my own. I have had my own dog since I was about 19, but have had outdoor farm dogs for as long as I can remember. I have been around dogs, cats, guinea pigs, and other small animals for as long as I can remember. I am patient, detail orientated and I truly just love spending time with animals. Big or small, I love them all! I do work during the day, but I have the ability to pop out if/when I need to. I am free evenings and weekends. My schedule can be flexible if needed. I have a dog friendly home. To me this means there’s nothing but toys on the ground. Garbages are hidden and I am very aware of what is around my animals. I also have a dog park in front of my apartment!
About: I treat my 2 dogs like children. Spoiled rotten. I enjoy animals more than I enjoy humans. Sorry, not sorry. My special skill is love lol I'm a travel nurse, working in different towns. Need more activities to do on my days off. I usually will have 3 days off. I have my dog with me and know how important he is. He is home. I prefer to go to the clients home and check on your dog and let him to go potty and or go on a walk.
“Allison did a great job with our two cats, four guinea pigs, and two hamsters! Our cat, Juniper, who is usually more on the shy side, warmed right up to her and loved the attention. She gave daily updates and sent pictures. Thank you Allison!”

About: I believe pet care is more than feeding and letting them out. I take the time to interact, play, and be present, so they feel relaxed and cared for while their owners are away. Whether a pet wants activity or quiet company, I make sure they get the attention they need. I’ve spent many years raising and caring for a variety of pets, including dogs, cats, and birds. With that experience, I know how to help animals feel safe and comfortable quickly, and I’m able to build trust and a positive connection with them! I am currently working remotely, so I will not be gone for hours on end. I have other activities I like to do like go to the gym, but most of my day will be spent in your home caring for your loved ones! Everyone knows that each pet responds differently to their parents leaving, so I like to go with the flow, making sure they are comfortable. If they want to spend a lot of their time relaxing and by themselves, I will give them their space, but will I always be there for them if they want to play!

About: I have taken care of cats and kittens for as long as I can remember. From helping out with grandma’s barn cats to spoiling my own, I’m well equipped for any situation! Cats need more attention than most people assume, and I’ll be sure to make sure your precious kitty isn’t neglected while you’re away. With me, they’ll get never-ending snuggles (if they so desire), play time, and a clean litter box! You’ll also get plenty of photos during your time apart from them! I am experienced with easy, picky, disabled, old, young, and grumpy cats. Some like lots of TLC, others need their space! I’m adaptable to their needs :)
About: I have had dogs my whole life growing up and I currently have 2 large dogs. I would prefer if they are already potty trained. I am a full time college student with class in the mornings and afternoons. I would be able to do visits very early in the morning or after class/later in the day too. I am willing to exercise your dog with either a walk, throwing a ball or some other activity they like. Or on the flip side if they love chilling and getting attention I am totally down for that too.
About: I grew up on a farm so taking care of animals come second nature to me. I just love being around animals, they are just the cutest things ever. Just recently quit my job to open more free time. Monday through Friday my schedule is open. I’m also available every others weekend will be busy the other two weekends during the month with my daughter Making sure I give all pets enough attention, I treat every pet as if they where my children. The safety and well being of your pet is my number One responsibility.

About: I’ve owned cats all of my life and often pet sit my friends cats. No matter what anyone says, I think everyone is deep down a cat person. They have this calming affect like no other animal. And they make the best snuggle buddies.

About: We had a pup for 16 years and sadly he had to leave this world behind. We have a lot of love to give but don't have the time to commit to another pup full time. We'd love to help you with your pup dog - while on vacation or even some time to walk. We both work from home so your dog will receive extra attention all day! We are able to get walks in a few times a day and enjoy the time outside as well. We also have a teenage girl who loves pets, so when she's home, there another person around to love on your dog. Our house is welcoming, and we welcome any trained dogs to our house. We have three levels and animals are allowed throughout the house. We do not have a fenced in back yard but it is very open for them to run and play.
“Anna was great with our puppy! Her teenage grandsons loved having another dog around. A huge backyard and free reign of the deck and inside makes for a laid-back day with the dogs She is so friendly and so easy to work with! We will be rebooking for daycare and overnight boarding in the future!”

About: I have taken care of dogs my entire life. I am part of a rescue and have had many fosters throughout my home, along with many dogs myself. I had a special needs basset hound and loved giving him the extra help he needed during his life. I also have experience with puppies, big dogs, blind dogs, and shy/breeder release! I did train my dogs starting at age 12 as well. Open at any time! Walks, potty breaks, petting session and everything in between! I have very few scheduling conflicts. Available almost all day every day :) With compassion and care. I would take care of your pet as it is needed and however you request! I would treat your animal and home as I would mine.
“Took great care of our dog. Lots of friends for him to play with and he got lots of snuggles. Good communication on scheduling and sent us lots of pictures and updates to let us know how he was doing. Would recommend.”
“I would definitely recommend Heidi to anyone who has a pup in the Mankato area. She took amazing care of Beans! The attention and care she gave to Beans was outstanding! Beans always was happy to go with Heidi and when I went to pick him up. Beans was happy and content with the attention and care he received. Plus the picture updates were always great to see how Beans was doing. I am beyond grateful for the great care and service Heidi provided.”

About: I absolutely love dogs of all breeds. I am very familiar with the “bully breeds”, and larger breed dogs. I love cuddles and exploring, playing with toys, and meeting new friends at doggy parks. Working from home allows me to not have to leave your babies home alone for more than a couple of hours if I need to do errands. My 12yr old loves all animals and is willing to keep your babies active or relax and lay around. We can be a very active household, but we like to have a relax day here and there as well. Our favorite time of day is walking or running outdoors. We are pleased to have any age dog around! When your pup is with me, they will be loved and treated as if they have been in the home with us their entire life. I currently work from home so have plenty of flexibility. We have a big yard with plenty of pup toys, we are very observant and make sure everyone is doing good at all times. I am a dog trainer as well so know a lot of different skills to work with most dogs.
“This was Harvest’s first stay at Beth’s. He had an amazing time. Harvest rarely eats when left with others (because he can be anxious). He ate all his food there! He is a tired out pup tonight. Harvest will definitely return!”

“Maisie took care of my millie so well. kept millie busy all day and took her on walks. sent pictures and updates throughout the day. i didn’t have to worry once while she was with maisie.”

About: For over 38 years, I have had animals from cats, dogs, and pigs. I have a dedicated love and passion for animals; everything from walks to cuddles to playtime and treats. I'll make sure your fur babies feel loved, happy, and healthy. I am reliable and compassionate and excited to take care of your babies while you are away. I work from home during the week, which allows me to provide consistent and attentive care throughout the day. Whether it’s walks, pets, or cuddles, I’m able to be present and responsive to their needs. My priority is to ensure the safety so I will first check for fencing and leashing preferences of the family to ensure we are safe. I’ll also seek to understand all relevant home rules as they relate to pets and preferences.
About: If you are anything like me I find it stressful to leave my fur babies in someone else's care. I can provide a safe loving space for your fur kids to stay. Between a spacious home and a large privacy fenced shaded backyard for them to explore and play, we hope your pups will find our home a relaxing environment to stay. Our pups are our kids and are treated as so. We have owned dogs all of our adult lives and feel we understand dog behaviors. While you are away we will provide around the clock care in a safe loving environment. Whether your pup is a social baby and would like to lounge next to people or more comfortable in there own space I have the ability to meet those needs. Safety is a priority. With the large fenced in backyard, this gives the pups the ability to go outside and do their business, lounge, explore and play without the fear of run offs. Since I have always had dogs and cats it has been a priority to make sure my home is pet safe.

Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply having a calm companion nearby, I’ll make sure they receive personalized care, plenty of affection, and the attention they deserve throughout their stay. work a hybrid schedule, which gives me flexibility to provide pet care during lunch breaks, after work, and on weekends. This allows me to accommodate walks, drop-in visits, feeding schedules, playtime, and overnight care while ensuring pets receive consistent attention and companionship. I’m happy to work with pet parents to find a schedule that best fits their needs. I provide care in my clients’ homes to help pets stay comfortable in their familiar environment and maintain their normal routine. I carefully follow each pet owner’s instructions regarding feeding schedules, walks, exercise, medications, and any special care needs. I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, companionship, and playtime while keeping their environment clean and secure. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident their pets are happy and well cared for while they’re away.
About: Pet Care Experience: I’ve cared for pets of all kinds—from energetic puppies to gentle seniors—and I pride myself on giving each animal the same love and attention they’d get from their family. I’m experienced with administering medications, following special diets, and providing calm, reassuring care for anxious pets. Whether it’s a long walk, playtime, or quiet companionship, I adapt to each pet’s unique personality and needs. What Sets Me Apart: I focus on building trust through consistency, patience, and clear communication. I take time to learn each pet’s routine and preferences, making sure they feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. My background in handling multiple pets at once and caring for animals with special needs means you can relax knowing your pets are in capable hands. Pet care is a regular part of my daily routine. I plan my days around feeding times, walks, and check-ins to make sure each pet gets the attention and consistency they need. I’m flexible with scheduling and can accommodate afternoon, or evening visits depending on your pet’s routine. Whether it’s daily drop-ins, overnight care, or weekend stays, I make sure your pet’s comfort and routine always come first. If I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat their space with the same respect I’d want for my own. I follow all care instructions closely, keep things tidy, and provide updates so you always know how your pet is doing. Whether it’s sticking to training routines, administering medication, or giving extra cuddles, I adapt to each pet’s personality and comfort level.
About: I have experienced with animals of all shapes and sizes. I worked in a doggy daycare/boarding facility for about a year. I’m so grateful for that experience because I learned so much. I learned to read doggy body language really well, so I have the utmost confidence that I can help your pup feel comfortable around me! I currently work at a veterinary clinic as a vet assistant. I’ve worked with cats and dogs of all sizes, temperaments and I’ve had my fair share who are picky eaters. So I won’t be offended if your pup doesn’t take treats from me! I have worked with dogs who are confident, and dogs who are shy and just need some extra time to warm up to me. While the puppy appointments are great, I also have gotten a lot of work in with senior pets too! Whether your pup is going to push me out the door to play fetch, or would rather spend some time in the couch getting snuggles and belly rubs, they’ll taken care of just like they were my own fur baby. Hi there! I’m Elizabeth! I currently work from 7:30 - 5 Monday through Thursday. I am currently available for house sitting almost every Friday and weekend. I am available for walks or play times after 6 pm most days Monday through Thursday! I currently have 3 amazing basset hounds and 2 cats that I live with. Our bassets have a fenced in yard, but I’ve also lived with mixed breeds. My mixed breeds have been anywhere from smaller dogs to 100+ pounds! I understand that some pets are cautious around new people. When at work at my veterinary clinic, I take my time with dogs that are more shy. I want all pets I encounter to be my friend, and I know it can take longer with some pets.
About: My experience comes from life. I’ve taken care of bunnies, reptiles, cats, and dogs. For dogs specifically, I worked at a doggy daycare before moving here, and before that, I watch many of my family friends' animals while they went camping or traveling. I have a lot of experience with all kinds of dogs including Great Danes, senior cats and dogs along with lots of puppies. I’ve also had a bit of training experience with puppies. As far as bunnies go, my roommate for a year has bunnies, and some friends from home do too. While living with my roommate, I’ve watched her bunnies many times while she was away. My best friend has reptiles that I’ve fed and taken care of as well. Since leaving the doggy daycare and moving, I have truly missed the joy of connecting and building bonds with animals, and there’s nothing like having the pet parents proud or happy with the work you’ve done. I am currently working part time so I’m flexible on time. I am also in college however I do most of my classes online so I still have time:) I minimum like to spend 30 minutes with any animal to be sure all of their needs are met however, if it looks like the animal wants more, I end up staying for an extra 10-15 minutes so the animal can also gain a level of comfortability with me. I like to leave knowing that the animal is cared for but more so content with the attention and love that they deserve to have every day.
About: I treat my 2 dogs like children. Spoiled rotten. I enjoy animals more than I enjoy humans. Sorry, not sorry. My special skill is love lol I'm a travel nurse, working in different towns. Need more activities to do on my days off. I usually will have 3 days off. I have my dog with me and know how important he is. He is home. I prefer to go to the clients home and check on your dog and let him to go potty and or go on a walk.
“Maisie was awesome with our greyhound! She walked her for a full hour, about 2.5 miles. She was great to communicate with and super friendly! Will definitely use her again in the future.”

About: I have been around animals for as long as I can remember. I have the biggest soft spot for them, and I have two dogs of my own. I have had my own dog since I was about 19, but have had outdoor farm dogs for as long as I can remember. I have been around dogs, cats, guinea pigs, and other small animals for as long as I can remember. I am patient, detail orientated and I truly just love spending time with animals. Big or small, I love them all! I do work during the day, but I have the ability to pop out if/when I need to. I am free evenings and weekends. My schedule can be flexible if needed. I have a dog friendly home. To me this means there’s nothing but toys on the ground. Garbages are hidden and I am very aware of what is around my animals. I also have a dog park in front of my apartment!
About: I had a family dog for 13 years who was a shih tzu. Since she passed i’ve helped out friends, neighbors, and family members take care of their pets! I love spending time with all animals. I now even own my own kitty named Finny! I am a busy college student but I would love to help out your animals in my free time! I only have class on Tuesdays and Thursday while staying here most weekends! I will cater to you and your pets needs. I do not watch dogs in my own home as I currently live in a dorm. I will do whatever is best for the both of you!

About: I’ve been caring for pets longer than I can remember - from helping grandma with her horses and barn cats to spoiling and training our own dachshund puppy and two amazing kitties - I am well equipped for any situation. Some background for me: I was born and raised in Alaska! There I took care of cats of varying abilities/disabilities/age, dogs of all sizes and abilities/disabilities/age, and fish! There’s been instances where I have stayed over a month to look over a special needs cat, and dug my car out after a heavy snow to make sure a hyper puppy gets a good hike in! I’m adaptable and communicative - you can be sure that I’ll send you plenty of photos and videos of your pet while you’re gone! Now I’m here in Minnesota to finish college, start life with my new husband, and take care of the pets in Southern Minnesota! I’m currently still a student! But I have Tuesdays, Thursdays, and the weekends for the most part completely open! Otherwise, I will make sure to check in on your pets between classes to ensure they don’t go more than four hours alone. I can’t have a pet in my apartment right now 😭 but when I’m back home in Alaska, we had a fenced area for our dog while she was still with us, and we have two full-time indoor cats. We love to spoil our animals - lots of love, kindness, and a patient environment. Just positive reinforcement and steady routines over here!
About: I’ve cared for all types of dogs with all different personalities and energy levels while volunteering at the animal humane society with both dogs and cats along with having my own pets. I love spending time with all animals furry, scaly and feathered. I do work a few days out of the week and I’m a college student, but I do have a bit of free time to spend with your animals! No dog (or cat) is too big or small for me to care for and I have experience with special needs animals. I know that pets are like children to many people out there and I’m prepared to give your pet as much attention as they want and need. Thank you for considering me!
About: I’ve always been surrounded with animals, including dogs, chickens, cats, bunnies, and goats. I’ve dealt with a lot of different breeds ranging from Great Danes to Chihuahua. I’m currently a college student going to school for social work! I work at a nursing home as a CNA. I’m also in the Army National Guard. While that does keep me busy I do love taking care of animals in my free time and being active! I have been to a few training sessions with my own dogs, so I can help out with some basic training tasks. I can easily go on walks and runs with your dog. I’m very flexible with your needs so just let me know!
About: I’ve grown up with all different breeds and ages of dogs. I understand that all dogs have different personalities and their own traits that make them unique. I love getting to know their different personalities!! I currently work full time as a nurse but I have many days off during the week and weekends. My schedule varies slightly from week to week. But when I’m off, I’m usually spending time at home! I have my own fur baby who gets along great with other dogs and loves to have company! I allow him free rein of the house if I have to leave for any reason. But I do have a kennel and am able to gate off areas of my house if needed! My family has a farm place about a mile away with a large fenced in area that my dog loves to run in. I also love going for walks and cuddling on the couch and watching movies with my pup.
About: I have grown up with dogs from old age to puppies. Our family always has dogs around, big or small! I love them all tremendously. I grew up with labs, bichon-poodle, GSPs and wiener dogs. My job is very flexible. It is a work from home but also a mix of out in the field. I can pick my own schedule so whatever fits for me and your pupper I am happy to cater to their/your needs! I have a two-bedroom apartment that is large enough for dogs. I can bring them outside for walks, to the bathroom and just to play. If you prefer a fenced in I can take them to a dog park. I love to cuddle and let the dogs on the couch/bed. I am very attentive to what you prefer their schedule to be.

About: I have grown up with two lovely pups in my house. I helped taking care of them and even helped in training our hunting dog! I love being around animals and especially dogs. I am currently a college student I go to school at the university of Minnesota state Mankato. I am majoring in sports management with a minor in marketing. Moving back to college means I’m away from my dog at home. I am not ready to commit to getting a dog of my own due to living in an apartment, but I wanted the opportunity to be around dogs. So, that’s when I found rover and thought it would be perfect for someone like me! I give a lot of attention to the dogs and of course love to take them on long walks as I am quite active myself.

I couldn’t be happier with working Heidi. Thank you!!!”

About: Hi! I’m Aleah, a lifelong animal lover with years of hands on experience caring for pets. I grew up in a home with 6 dogs and 3 cats, so caring for animals has always been a huge part of my life. From energetic puppies to senior pets who need a little extra patience and attention, I’m comfortable with animals of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I currently have a dog of my own, which has given me even more experience with daily care, exercise, training reinforcement, and understanding each dog’s unique needs. I know how important it is to find someone you trust with your furry family member, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply having a calm and reliable companion while you’re away, I’m happy to provide personalized care to keep them comfortable, safe, and loved. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! Because I currently have open availability, I’m able to be flexible with scheduling and can accommodate last minute bookings, extended stays, and pets who need more frequent attention throughout the day. Pet care is something I genuinely enjoy, so I have the time and dedication to focus on providing reliable, attentive care for every animal I watch. I care for every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owner is away. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication administration (if needed), and plenty of attention and affection. In a client’s home, I respect both the pet’s routine and the owner’s space, providing regular updates, photos, and communication for peace of mind. I make sure pets get the exercise, mental stimulation, and companionship they need while maintaining a clean and secure environment. When caring for pets in my home, I provide a calm, safe, and pet friendly environment where they can relax and feel at home. I pay close attention to each animal’s personality and needs, whether they prefer active playtime, long walks, cuddles on the couch, or a quiet place to rest. My goal is always to ensure pets are happy, healthy, and stress-free while their families are away.
