“Jenna was awesome with my dog. Aspyn is timid and needs a calmer environment, which is just what she got with Jenna. I got several text updates with photos so I felt close to our dog even when far away. Highly recommend Jenna!”
“Joy took such great care of Jax! She sent photos and updates and he looked like he was enjoying his time there. We are looking forward to his next stay at her house!”
“Meganne was kindly able to book my puppy last minute. She sent photos and videos of him with her family throughout the time frame. If time and proximity allows it, I will book with her again!”
“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!”
“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! 🩵”
“I took my 2 dogs there for the first time, and Jordan was great to communicate with, and she gave me plenty of updates on how the dogs were doing. I would highly recommend Jordan to take care of your dogs when you need someone to watch them for you.”
About: I have taken care of pets (mainly dogs) for many years. I have expertise in walking, training, and making sure your pet gets the best care on a regular basis. I am currently in college and have classes M,W,F. I work at a daycare so my hours are different everyday but I still have availability to care for your pets! My weekends are always open. I am looking forward to help out! I care for pets how their owners care for them. I provide them with a caring personality and follow their routine and owner's regulations. That could be going on walks, feeding them, and playtime. Most importantly I want them to be comfortable with me so do that I think it is important to do things with them that they are familiar with.
About: My name is Brianna and I live in the St. Peter area, and am hoping to start getting some pet walking/sitting clients! I just recently had to put down my beagle Duke, who I had for 7 years. He was 17, so I have experience with senior pets. I will take care of your animals like they’re my own. I have part time hours at work over the summer so I have lots of free time to take care of your most special friends! I am will make your pet as comfortable as possible while you’re away, whether that be snuggles on the couch or getting out to play or go on a walk. I will do whatever is needed to keep their routine as normal as possible.
About: Hi! My name is Sage and I specialize in animal caretaking and welfare. I have lived my entire life with at least one animal in the house and I have been dog sitting on and off since high school. I am certified in three years of dog training and currently live with my lovely cat, London. I’ve never met a pet that I haven’t loved, and past employers would describe me as dependable, easy-going, and kind. My days are entirely open, except for the occasional one or two days a week where I am called in from one of my other jobs. I am also a full-time college student during the fall and winter time, but my summers are almost entirely clear. In my home, I live with my cat London, and four other housemates. If your animal stayed with me, they would never feel alone and would always have somebody in the house that can watch them or be there for all their needs. We have a lovely backyard full of grass, a back deck for lounging and sunbathing and a large neighborhood for daily walks. Your pet would feel like a king or queen in a castle! :)
About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for over 7 years through friends, neighbors, and family.

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 make sure pets stick to their normal routines as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special care instructions.

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: Hi, I’m Kaitlyn! I've been caring for animals of all shapes and sizes for over a decade — from tiny kittens to large breed dogs like my own lovable Cane Corso. Growing up surrounded by cats and dogs sparked a lifelong passion for animals, and I’ve been pet sitting since I was 12 years old. Whether your pet is high-energy or more laid-back, I’m confident in creating a safe, loving, and fun environment tailored to their needs. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, and I take that responsibility seriously. I’d love to meet your pet and make sure they feel right at home while you’re away! Pet care is a natural part of my daily life! I work a typical 8–5 job Monday through Friday, but I always make time for animals. I have a one-hour lunch break each day, which I use to go home and let my dog out, give him attention, and make sure he’s happy and comfortable. After work, you’ll usually find me walking, playing, or training with him—it’s one of the best parts of my day. On weekends, I’m completely available and fully dedicated to pet care, whether that’s watching over pets in my home or visiting yours. I treat every pet like they’re part of the family. Whether I’m caring for them in my home or yours, I make sure they feel safe, loved, and well-attended to. I follow your pet’s routine as closely as possible—feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special instructions you have. I’m patient, observant, and always respectful of each animal’s unique personality and needs. I also give regular updates so you can feel confident that your pet is in great hands while you're away.

We loved seeing all of the pictures she sent with each visit! Before the visit, she was very communicative and appreciative of the notes we gave her. Definitely recommend!”
“Cassie was wonderful with my cats. She took the time to make sure they were safe. Cassie was great about communicating during the check ins. Highly recommend Cassie for taking care of your fur babies.”
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.
About: I love dogs, and all animals for that matter. i’ve had pets all throughout my life and got my first dog of my own when I was 8. I love playing and cuddling. every dog, size and breed is amazing. I have a very flexible schedule, and would love to fill up my free time watching and taking care of dogs and cats. I hope you take my application into consideration, thank you. I have a very open and flexible schedule and can play and care for your pups and kitties for as long as needed, as I work part time. I have a clean home with a lot of back yard space for playing. I can easily crate your dog if it is necessary. I can follow feeding schedules and walking routines.
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: While my main work as a dog walker was regarding dog care, I also provided infrequent care professionally for various cats over the years. I have also lived with cats of roommates and taken care of them like I would my own pet. Beyond that, I've provided care for the felines of friends and family, from kittens who are snuggle bugs to older cats who really just want to nap in their favorite sun spot.
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!
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 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!
“She did an amazing job watching our cat! She communicated well, was professional, and sent lots of pictures! She went above and beyond by cleaning up the bathroom/litter area when our cat got upset and made a mess. We were really nervous about leaving him alone for an extended period of time for the first time, but she did a great job and we were able to enjoy our vacation because of it!”

“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!”
“Heidi was kind and considerate, took great care of my dog. Unfortunately there were a lot more dogs in her home then I was aware of, I should have read more closely of her profile. Apparently my young puppy did not get along well with one of her older dogs, so we will not be using her again.”
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.

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.

About: I walked dogs with a company for 4 years while living in New York City. The company specialized in individual household care, walking only the dogs of the household at a time. So no mess of leashes, just one-on-one (or two) dogs at a time. (I even got to walk Jimmy Buffett's dogs while working there) I cared for all manner and breed of dog, from ones that never ran out of energy and loved everyone, to dogs that just wanted to sit on the couch and didn't care about other dogs. And before that, my family always had at least one dog around while my mother trained puppies to be service animals. I have also provided care for cats over the years, having lived with them and cared for cats in dog/cat homes. My care for animals runs deep, and I love to see them get what they need to really be happy and healthy. I pay close attention to each animal and try to understand what they need and meet them where they're at, from unruly puppies to senior dogs in their sunset years. I'm currently self-employed, so I'm able to offer flexible availability to best suit the needs of each pet owner. I've grown up around pets and care deeply for their well-being, so I know how important it is for both owners and pets for the animals to get timely care and exercise. Having worked as a professional dog walker (just 1-2 dogs at a time, as to better give individual attention and care), I know how important it is to clients to be able to rely on a caregiver and trust their pet is in good hands. Each animal has their own needs that need to be accounted for, and those needs may change depending on the day or time of year. Being attentive, creative, and willing to go the extra mile means I'm giving each pet the best care I can each time.
“Cassie has been. Rey patient and flexible as we’ve been establishing our schedule. She takes the cutest pictures and texts them to me at work. It has made it easier to leave my Charliedoodle and go to work.”
About: Pets have always been a meaningful part of my life. I recently lost my childhood dog, Sophee, and her absence has reminded me just how much joy and companionship animals bring. With years of experience caring for dogs, cats, and even a variety of farm animals, I’m confident in my ability to provide attentive, loving care. I’d be honored to help make your busy schedule a little easier by ensuring your pet gets the attention, comfort, and care they deserve. I just graduated from Gustavus and am working a few jobs this summer to help me pay for my graduate school this coming fall! I work a restaurant job, so typically I’m only available before 4, or after 4, and I only know less than a week ahead. Despite this, I'm committed to making it workout with you and whatever pet you may have! Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, their safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take time to understand each pet’s routine, preferences, and any specific needs they may have. In your home, I aim to keep their environment as familiar and stress-free as possible by sticking to their usual schedule and respecting your space. I also prioritize secure leash handling during walks and double-check doors and gates to prevent escapes. I treat every pet like my own—with patience, attentiveness, and plenty of love.

About: Hi! My name is Sage and I specialize in animal caretaking and welfare. I have lived my entire life with at least one animal in the house and I have been dog sitting on and off since high school. I am certified in three years of dog training and currently live with my lovely cat, London. I’ve never met a pet that I haven’t loved, and past employers would describe me as dependable, easy-going, and kind. My days are entirely open, except for the occasional one or two days a week where I am called in from one of my other jobs. I am also a full-time college student during the fall and winter time, but my summers are almost entirely clear. In my home, I live with my cat London, and four other housemates. If your animal stayed with me, they would never feel alone and would always have somebody in the house that can watch them or be there for all their needs. We have a lovely backyard full of grass, a back deck for lounging and sunbathing and a large neighborhood for daily walks. Your pet would feel like a king or queen in a castle! :)
About: I have had dogs my entire life as a child and have one currently as an adult. I know the perfect line between discipline and love to make sure our four legged family members stay safe, loved, and happy! Pet care is best for my schedule after 4pm!! I can dedicate the most amount of time (and love!) to your furry friend once I am out of work and studying for my medical entrance exam! I love taking my dog for walks, play time at the park, bathing, and anything to make sure she is happy! Each pet pal is treated like my own with pets, scratches, and love in every activity we do!
About: I love pets, walks, and the great outdoors! I grew up on a farm where I cared for goats, rabbits, hens, horses, cattle, cats and dogs. Growing up, we always had inside pets, including kittens and puppies. As a teenager, I regularly pet sat for neighbors who had cats and dogs, which gave me a wide exposure to different breeds, personalities and schedules. As an adult, I've raised and successfully trained two puppies (small and large breed) into adulthood. I also adopted and rehabilitated 1 dog from a shelter, and 2 cats. Over the years, I've cared for several dogs and cats for friends and family, including (small and large breed) senior dogs. I have experience interacting with anxious and fearful pets, in addition to administering their medications. I work from home, which allows me to provide dedicated care and attention to your pet. During work hours, I can offer frequent potty breaks and play time in our fenced backyard. In the morning and evenings, I can take your dog for long walks on nearby trails and post-walk cuddles. Overnights can be in a kennel, couch or bed. I approach each pet with calm energy, understanding they each have their own needs and personalities. I abide by my client's preferences to ensure their pets will be comfortable and safe. When I house sit or walk new dogs, I adapt to their space as much as possible. When I board dogs, I integrate them into my environment, ensuring they feel welcome. I have a fenced backyard with a pond, perfect for fetching. I have two kids (11, 15) and a small breed (male, Jack Russell terrier) named Tony, who sleeps on their beds. Tony gets along with all dogs, but also enjoys sleeping in his kennel, when necessary. We have several rooms available, if your dog prefers privacy. We live close to a veterinary clinic, several city parks, dog parks, and walking trails. Please let me know how to best accommodate your pet's needs.
About: I have grown up in a household full of rescue dogs of every breed and mix. In my neighborhood, neighbors have asked me the past few years to watch their dogs and even some cats. It doesn’t matter the dog, big or little, I’ll be more than excited to make a new furry friend! My current schedule leaves me free time during the evenings so I could be your go-to evening gal! I will be available most nights before your dog’s bed times. I feed them, I can give them medicine, and I especially like to play with them! Come treat time, I like to make them work for their treat!

“Jenna was awesome with my dog. Aspyn is timid and needs a calmer environment, which is just what she got with Jenna. I got several text updates with photos so I felt close to our dog even when far away. Highly recommend Jenna!”
“Joy took such great care of Jax! She sent photos and updates and he looked like he was enjoying his time there. We are looking forward to his next stay at her house!”
“Meganne was kindly able to book my puppy last minute. She sent photos and videos of him with her family throughout the time frame. If time and proximity allows it, I will book with her again!”
“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! 🩵”
“I took my 2 dogs there for the first time, and Jordan was great to communicate with, and she gave me plenty of updates on how the dogs were doing. I would highly recommend Jordan to take care of your dogs when you need someone to watch them for you.”

About: Hi, I’m Kaitlyn! I've been caring for animals of all shapes and sizes for over a decade — from tiny kittens to large breed dogs like my own lovable Cane Corso. Growing up surrounded by cats and dogs sparked a lifelong passion for animals, and I’ve been pet sitting since I was 12 years old. Whether your pet is high-energy or more laid-back, I’m confident in creating a safe, loving, and fun environment tailored to their needs. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, and I take that responsibility seriously. I’d love to meet your pet and make sure they feel right at home while you’re away! Pet care is a natural part of my daily life! I work a typical 8–5 job Monday through Friday, but I always make time for animals. I have a one-hour lunch break each day, which I use to go home and let my dog out, give him attention, and make sure he’s happy and comfortable. After work, you’ll usually find me walking, playing, or training with him—it’s one of the best parts of my day. On weekends, I’m completely available and fully dedicated to pet care, whether that’s watching over pets in my home or visiting yours. I treat every pet like they’re part of the family. Whether I’m caring for them in my home or yours, I make sure they feel safe, loved, and well-attended to. I follow your pet’s routine as closely as possible—feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special instructions you have. I’m patient, observant, and always respectful of each animal’s unique personality and needs. I also give regular updates so you can feel confident that your pet is in great hands while you're away.
