“We highly recommend Brenda and Al! Great communication, flexible and took exceptional care of our big guy. It was so nice to go on vacation and know he was with genuine and good people who cared for him like he was their own! Thank you!! Steve and Laurie”
“Maureen was so accommodating with our last minute search for care for our 9 month old puppy. Being our first time leaving Addie overnight, we were somewhat apprehensive. However, Maureen put our mind at ease with listening to our needs and requests, her reassurance, and in providing the care we wanted our puppy to have. The texts throughout the day and pictures of Addie reassured us we made the right decision in choosing Maureen. We will definitely contact her in the future when the need arises.”
“Amy was FANTASTIC with Lefty! He was at home there almost as fast as we arrived. Amy sent several pictures a day. We were completely at ease about Leftys care while we were gone. We’ve already booked another visit with Amy!”
“Derek and his family were wonderful caregivers for our dog Zoey for 10 days. Zoey came home happy and healthy and it was apparent she adores Derek! We are so grateful and will use Derek again in the future.”
“April is the BEST!! Always sends me adorable photos or videos of Maggie and her playmates. I can work or travel with no worries since I know Maggie is enjoying herself. April gives her a lot of TLC♥️?♥️”
“Tanya does a great job communicating and letting us know what is going on with Lucky while we are away. We feel safe and comfortable leaving Lucky with her and her husband.”
“We are very grateful we found Kyle for our dog, Lucy. She has some anxiety issues, and Kyle and his wife handled her just fine. They sent photos and little anecdotes about funny things Lucy did, which made us feel so much better. Lucy had a great time with the other dogs, too. We will be using Kyle again in April, and feel really good about leaving Lucy with them.”
“Renee & James took great care of my English Bulldog who needed medication during his stay. The medication administration was not planned when we booked. Renee & James sent pictures and communicated concerns about my dog with me throughout his stay. My elderly English bulldog is proving to be a typical bulldog with complex needs and Renee & James handled all his needs extremely well.”
“Judy did a great job watching Bianka! She kept me updated about her and was very good at giving her her meds and sending photos and when I picked Bianka up, I could tell she was very happy that she stayed with Judy. I would definitely book with Judy again”
“Lori was amazing! She made Nipsey feel like a part of the family! She updated me everyday and sent pictures of Nipsey. Nipsey definitely enjoyed himself and we will most certainly book her again!”
“Our dog felt comfortable right away in their home … so comfortable we thought he might want to stay. He got a lot of attention and walks and play time. We would definitely have him stay here again.”
“Maria was great with Tootsie. She sent several pictures, videos and updates during Tootsie's stay with her. I would definitely recommend Maria and book her again.”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter than Shreya. She boarded our dog for a full week and treated him like family. She was attentive, patient, and very communicative, sending frequent updates and photos. Our dog came back relaxed and happy, which says everything. It’s clear she genuinely loves dogs. We will definitely use her services again and strongly recommend her.”
“I’m giving a well-deserved 5-star rating to Manami! Booking was super easy. She took time to meet Lulu a few weeks before watching her. They hit it off right from the start! She was very accommodating on drop off and pick up times. Lulu got plenty of exercise. And then plenty of naps! We appreciated Manami’s great communication, including several pictures while we were away. She’ll definitely be our first call the next time we need to leave Lulu with someone!”
“We found Melinda in the last moment, as our previous sitter was hospitalized a few days before our trip. Melinda was amazing. She took such a great care of our senior dog. Bentley usually has separation anxiety, but with Melinda he quickly got comfortable and had a great time. The weather was extremely cold, and yet Melinda took him out a few times a day. She was sending us detailed updates and pictures every day. Communication with her was excellent. We really appreciate the wonderful care Melinda gave Bentley for the whole week. We would strongly recommend her and for sure will rebook her for Bentley.”
“Kay and her family are the best! I was a little concerned leaving our 15 yo mini schnauzer only because we have never boarded her or had her stay outside of our own home but I just knew that Kay was the perfect fit and I was not wrong. Sooo happy to have a found somewhere that I have complete confidence that our little princess is being taken care of. Highly recommend!”
“Nicole is an awesome sitter! We have two dogs that are often scared of other dogs. Nicole and family always had people around looking after and cuddling with our two guys. And her pets were great with our dogs! Nicole sent daily pics of our pups enjoying laps and sofas. I would most certainly take my dogs back to Nicole and family in the future!”
“Sophan was wonderful!! She sent pictures every day and kept me informed on what he was doing. Dudley was so tired when I bought him home because he had so much fun! I will definitely use Sophan again when we need someone to watch Dudley!”
“Kathryn was extremely nice and easy to work with. She responded promptly and was very accommodating. Loki had a great time with her, and we would definitely feel comfortable leaving him with her again.”

About: I love being around dogs and treat them as family, as they should be! I currently have 3 fur babies, two back labs who are brother and sister and a pitbull. They are my world and I will treat your dogs as such as well. Every dog deserves love and cuddles! I've worked with puppies through senior dogs and understand that every pup has its own personality and needs. I have experience giving medication as my girl receives daily meds for her Addisons. I love being active with dogs whether that's playing catch in the backyard, tug-o-war or going on long walks. I can't wait to meet your dog! I currently work from home so if I'm staying at your place of residence for an extended stay your family member will receive all the attention needed during the days. I have experience crating dogs if needed while I stay at your home. Because I work remotely I'll be able to play with and walk your pet throughout the day.
“I just love April and how she takes care of my cat! I’m so glad I found her. She has cats also so she always tries different fun things with my cat. I like that. And if I didn’t want April all to myself I would tell everyone to hire her for their pets…! She is great!”
About: I’ve always had dogs in my life. In the past 3 years we’ve welcomed almost 50 fosters into our home, many with behavioral issues. We currently have two rescues that are our life - and we want to welcome your pup into our home. We are heavily involved in the rescue world. We crate train, work on obedience, have the tools for a smooth transition, and go on walks multiple times a day. I currently work from home and am active on breaks with walks, training, and providing puppy love. We believe in routine and keeping dogs on a schedule. We watch our dogs, crate and rotate if needed, and always walk with a secure harness or harness lead. We allow pups to transition as long as they need as being away from home can be stressful!
“We had a short time window to book care for our two cats, with one needing insulin injections. Sara's info indicated she had experience with cats and injections. We did a video interview, as we weren't able to connect in person before our trip and Sara was able to come to our home to handle all duties without issue. She bonded very well with both cats and they even started looking forward to her visits - greeting her at the front window and door! She notified us of visits, as well as pictures and notes, which we appreciated, being far from home. Will definitely look forward to using Sara again! Thanks Sara Bella and Bree, Mary and Scott”
“Amber did such a great job taking care of our two kitties while we were away. She was so communicative and sent photos of the time she spent feeding and playing with them. That put our mind at ease, which allowed us to enjoy our vacation knowing our kitties were in good hands Thanks Amber!!”

“Maureen was a wonderful caretaker for my foster pup. She kept him busy and he was wiped out by the time I picked him up! Lots of good photos and updates throughout the day. She was flexible with pickup time too which was super helpful considering I work 30 mins away and my commute can vary given traffic. Time. She made my foster dog feel very loved!”
“I was so thankful that my dog could hang out with Kyle and Coco while we took a long day trip. When our plans changed, Kyle was understanding and accommodating. I would definitely book with Kyle again.”
“I have no idea where to start with this review! Adam and Leang are such a wonderful couple and they were so good with Lilo. They sent me photos and videos to see how she was doing throughout the day which definitely made me feel at ease and you can definitely tell they love and care for their animals since they treated mine like their own. After our meet and greet Lilo was so excited to see her new friends the next day and passed out after her day was done. I will definitely be using them again!”
“Ryder had a great first visit with Kira today. She sent several pictures throughout the day so I knew that he was doing well and gave me updates. We will certainly be using her for future daycare.”
“Melissa watched Rico on 6/13. Rico is shy and somewhat anxious. Melissa did a great job of making him feel comfortable outside before bringing him in to meet her other dogs. Melissa did a great job at providing me with up-to-date information. Rico had a great day at Melissas!”
About: Hi! I am a dependable, experienced pet lover who treats every animal like family. I grew up on a farm with 3 boxers, so caring for animals has always been a part of my life. As an adult, I have had a Boston Terrier, two French Bulldogs (one is still with me at home), several cats, lizards, fish, and I currently care for a Koi pond-so I am very comfortable with a wide range of animal personalities and needs. I work from home, which means your dog will get plenty of supervision and attention throughout the day. I have a very friendly French Bulldog named Bubble (age 7), who loves having visitors, plus a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor play and exercise. I am close to several walking paths near a lake, and dogs are allowed all throughout my home. I know firsthand how hard it is to leave your pet when you're busy or away-I've been there myself while working long hours in the office plus having to commute. That is why I am committed to making sure your pet feels safe, loved and engaged. I promise to keep them happy, healthy, and having fun while they are in my care. I offer walks, daycare, and overnight stays in my home. I am happy to follow your pet's routine closely. I can also handle feeding schedules, basic medications, and provide regular updates with photos so you always feel connected and know what is going on. Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities-and I truly enjoy building trust with both pets and their owners. I would love to meet you and your pet! I work from home with a very flexible schedule. I am home most of the day already with my dog -unless having to run errands. The same holds true if I am watching your pet. I will be around the house with your pet all day! I have a 2 floor home, fenced back yard, small shallow koi pond, doggy door, and gates at the top of the stairs for pets.
“Yulia was excellent ! I hadn’t left Simba with sitter before , so I was a bit of nervous . Her communication was awesome and pictures provided were much appreciated. The hand-off was easy . Simba loved her and her family . Will definitely book Yulia again ! Thank you for taking care of our furry baby !”
About: I believe every dog deserves a cozy, happy place where they feel loved and cared for. I’m attentive, responsible, and focused on making sure your pup has a calm, fun, and comfortable stay. From cuddles to walks to sticking closely to your dog’s routine, I’ll make sure they’re treated like one of my own. ♥️ I work from home, so I have a flexible schedule and am available for dog walking between 9:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m. I also provide overnight care for partial or full week stays, depending on your needs. If helpful, I can also come by to pick up your pup from your home. My home includes two young boys, ages 8 and 6, who love dogs and are very comfortable around them, so your fur baby will be welcomed into a warm, family-friendly environment. 🐶 My yard is not fenced, but your dog’s safety will always be my top priority. When we’re in the backyard, I will keep your dog securely on leash and never let them out of my sight, so you can feel confident they are always supervised and cared for. My house is always pup friendly. Whether your bestie needs a bed of their own or prefers to cuddle with hoomans, I want to give them the best experience away from home possible 🐾

I provide a safe, calm, and loving environment where pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. I’m comfortable following feeding schedules, giving oral medications if needed, and caring for both puppies and senior dogs. I understand that every pet is unique, so I adapt to their individual needs and routines to help them feel comfortable and happy while you’re away.

“Lori is watching my boy goose for a longer stay coming up in a few months so we did a daycare day for a trial to get him acclimated etc. Lori is phenomenal with communication and the sweetest picture updates. It was so helpful to know goose was happy and healthy while I was in office all day with meetings and he can’t wait to play with her pup jiggs again! I would absolutely recommend Lori for any and all of your pet sitting needs!”

You can tell that Shreya truly cares about welcoming any dog she cares for as family - and I was soo comforted knowing she was the one watching Diggory. Highly recommend. I hope to have Shreya watch my pup many more times in the future!”
About: I’ve been an animal lover my entire life. Growing up with a father who was a veterinarian, I learned early how to care for pets, rescue animals, and stay calm in unexpected situations. I’m a Science Teacher with years of experience working with children, including those with special needs. My career has taught me patience, responsibility, and attention to detail, qualities I bring to every pet I care for. With a background in dentistry and a genuine love for dogs, I’ll treat your pet like family and make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I work full-time as a middle school science teacher, but I’m currently on summer break and have a very flexible schedule. During the summer, I’m available throughout the day to provide attentive care, walks, playtime, and companionship. Once school resumes, I’m available on evenings, weekends, holidays, and school breaks. Your dog’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. We have a fully fenced yard and a safe, secure home where dogs can relax, play, and feel comfortable. All outdoor time is supervised, and I carefully follow each dog’s routine, including feeding, potty breaks, walks, medications, and any special instructions. I provide plenty of love, attention, and regular photo updates so you can feel confident that your pet is in caring and responsible hands.

About: As fellow dog parents, we know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your best friend! My husband and I have both grown up with family dogs and have experience with a variety of breeds, personalities, energy levels, and care needs. While we weren’t the primary caregivers for our family pets, we were actively involved in their daily care, including feeding, walking, playtime, training reinforcement, grooming, and providing lots of love and attention. For the past three years, we’ve been proud dog parents to our own pup and have continued to expand our knowledge of positive reinforcement training, enrichment activities, exercise, and creating a safe, happy environment for dogs. We understand that every dog is unique, and we strive to provide personalized care, plenty of affection, and regular updates so pet parents can feel confident and at ease while they’re away. Our home is built around a consistent, dog-centered routine, and we extend that same level of care and structure to any pets staying with us. Alex is a full-time teacher and is home during the summer months, providing plenty of daytime supervision, companionship, and care. When he is in the school year, we maintain a balanced schedule with reliable coverage and regular check-ins throughout the day. Kyra works full-time from 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM in a dog-friendly workplace, which allows for flexibility, occasional breaks, and at times bringing our own dog into the office. Each day starts with a morning walk, breakfast, and potty break, followed by structured care throughout the day, including afternoon exercise, enrichment activities, playtime, and attention. Even during the workday, dogs are never without a predictable routine and are set up for comfort, rest, and stimulation. We provide a warm, structured, and enrichment-focused home where dogs are treated like part of the family. We are a married couple living in a quiet, dog-friendly neighborhood next to the Brooklyn Park Community Park trails, making it easy to enjoy regular walks and outdoor adventures. We have one friendly dog of our own who loves playmates, as well as a fully fenced backyard and plenty of indoor space for play, rest, and relaxation. We welcome dogs into our home as part of the family, including allowing them on furniture for comfort and bonding. For safety and structure, we prefer crate sleeping at night and always ensure dogs are settled into a calm, secure routine before bedtime. All dogs are fed separately to avoid any food-related stress, and we’re attentive to individual needs and preferences. We love incorporating enrichment into each dog’s stay, including puzzle toys, training games, and interactive play, alongside daily walks and outdoor time. Our goal is to provide a safe, comfortable, and engaging environment where every dog feels at home and well cared for.

About: I have had dogs since my childhood and have helped train multiple dogs. I love all dogs and I would enjoy spending time with dogs again since I currently don’t have one. I spend a lot of time with my mom’s dog and frequently care for him when she is out of town. I get out of work by 2:55 everyday except Wednesdays and the last Thursday of each month. On those days I am done with work at 3:20. I am a teacher so I have winter break and spring break off as well. I have a small condo that I own that allows small dogs. I don’t have any pets. If you have a larger dog, I would be happy to come to you. I will follow whatever directions you leave and treat your pet like I would my own. I am a 2nd grade teacher and I’m very responsible. I take my commitments seriously and am very dependable.
About: I cared for puppies all the way up to geriatric dogs, providing love, exercise, companionship, nutrition, comfort, safety, enrichment, routine, attention, socialization, and support for them.

I am an active, animal-loving person excited to offer a safe, caring environment for your beloved pets. Although my yard isn’t fenced, I always keep dogs on a leash when outdoors to ensure their safety. I live in a wonderful, dog-friendly community with plenty of scenic walking paths—perfect for getting fresh air and exercise.

Their memory inspires me to continue giving love and care to other animals. I'd be honored to look after your sweet fur baby and treat them like part of my family while you’re away.
“Natalie has been amazing! We needed a quick solution for a dog walker and she was so helpful to manage walking our dog and helping with the place our dog was staying while we were traveling. I hope to have Natalie in our home to watch our dog and dog walk again! Her communication and care for our dog has been exceptional!”

About: I love all animals! I feel confident navigating different doggy behaviors and personalities🐶 I raised a Shiz tzu puppy, volunteered at Dunn County Humane Society in college and recently fostered a staffy for 3 years. I worked with 3 trainers with him and learned a lot about reactive behaviors and how to navigate them! I have dog sat for friends and family and am looking to help others! I work 10 mins from my apartment home and can give lots of potty breaks and love to your pups! I am close to the arbour lakes walking path and love a four legged walking partner! I understand that pet parents differ and want to work with you to determine what works best. Some dogs love their kennels, some don’t. Some have strict routine and some do not. Please let me know! I have a pet spa and am able to return the extra squeaky clean at a charge.

From cuddles to walks to sticking closely to your dog’s routine, I’ll make sure they’re treated like one of my own. ♥️ I work from home, so I have a flexible schedule and am available for dog walking between 9:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m. I also provide overnight care for partial or full week stays, depending on your needs. If helpful, I can also come by to pick up your pup from your home. My home includes two young boys, ages 8 and 6, who love dogs and are very comfortable around them, so your fur baby will be welcomed into a warm, family-friendly environment. 🐶 My yard is not fenced, but your dog’s safety will always be my top priority. When we’re in the backyard, I will keep your dog securely on leash and never let them out of my sight, so you can feel confident they are always supervised and cared for. My house is always pup friendly. Whether your bestie needs a bed of their own or prefers to cuddle with hoomans, I want to give them the best experience away from home possible 🐾

“We highly recommend Brenda and Al! Great communication, flexible and took exceptional care of our big guy. It was so nice to go on vacation and know he was with genuine and good people who cared for him like he was their own! Thank you!! Steve and Laurie”
“Maureen was so accommodating with our last minute search for care for our 9 month old puppy. Being our first time leaving Addie overnight, we were somewhat apprehensive. However, Maureen put our mind at ease with listening to our needs and requests, her reassurance, and in providing the care we wanted our puppy to have. The texts throughout the day and pictures of Addie reassured us we made the right decision in choosing Maureen. We will definitely contact her in the future when the need arises.”
“Amy was FANTASTIC with Lefty! He was at home there almost as fast as we arrived. Amy sent several pictures a day. We were completely at ease about Leftys care while we were gone. We’ve already booked another visit with Amy!”
“Tanya does a great job communicating and letting us know what is going on with Lucky while we are away. We feel safe and comfortable leaving Lucky with her and her husband.”
“We are very grateful we found Kyle for our dog, Lucy. She has some anxiety issues, and Kyle and his wife handled her just fine. They sent photos and little anecdotes about funny things Lucy did, which made us feel so much better. Lucy had a great time with the other dogs, too. We will be using Kyle again in April, and feel really good about leaving Lucy with them.”
“Renee & James took great care of my English Bulldog who needed medication during his stay. The medication administration was not planned when we booked. Renee & James sent pictures and communicated concerns about my dog with me throughout his stay. My elderly English bulldog is proving to be a typical bulldog with complex needs and Renee & James handled all his needs extremely well.”
“Lori was amazing! She made Nipsey feel like a part of the family! She updated me everyday and sent pictures of Nipsey. Nipsey definitely enjoyed himself and we will most certainly book her again!”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter than Shreya. She boarded our dog for a full week and treated him like family. She was attentive, patient, and very communicative, sending frequent updates and photos. Our dog came back relaxed and happy, which says everything. It’s clear she genuinely loves dogs. We will definitely use her services again and strongly recommend her.”
“We found Melinda in the last moment, as our previous sitter was hospitalized a few days before our trip. Melinda was amazing. She took such a great care of our senior dog. Bentley usually has separation anxiety, but with Melinda he quickly got comfortable and had a great time. The weather was extremely cold, and yet Melinda took him out a few times a day. She was sending us detailed updates and pictures every day. Communication with her was excellent. We really appreciate the wonderful care Melinda gave Bentley for the whole week. We would strongly recommend her and for sure will rebook her for Bentley.”
“Kay and her family are the best! I was a little concerned leaving our 15 yo mini schnauzer only because we have never boarded her or had her stay outside of our own home but I just knew that Kay was the perfect fit and I was not wrong. Sooo happy to have a found somewhere that I have complete confidence that our little princess is being taken care of. Highly recommend!”
“Nicole is an awesome sitter! We have two dogs that are often scared of other dogs. Nicole and family always had people around looking after and cuddling with our two guys. And her pets were great with our dogs! Nicole sent daily pics of our pups enjoying laps and sofas. I would most certainly take my dogs back to Nicole and family in the future!”
“Sophan was wonderful!! She sent pictures every day and kept me informed on what he was doing. Dudley was so tired when I bought him home because he had so much fun! I will definitely use Sophan again when we need someone to watch Dudley!”
“Kathryn was extremely nice and easy to work with. She responded promptly and was very accommodating. Loki had a great time with her, and we would definitely feel comfortable leaving him with her again.”
“We were quite happy leaving Marlowe with Melissa for a long weekend we were out of town. Marlowe seemed to have a great time, and Melissa was very helpful and communicative. We have used many Rover sitters thru the years, and we'd highly recommend Melissa for your pet-sitting or boarding needs!”
“My dog’s stay at Promise house was absolute wonderful! It was like camp for dogs! Great communication, updates and a loving caring environment, what more do you want?!”
“Sophia was great! Our Weimaraner had a great stay at her house and loved her huge, fenced-in yard. I appreciated getting pictures & updates while we were away. I highly recommend Sophia!”
“Great experience working with Leza! Was away for the weekend and she sent many pictures and messages to keep me updated. Scout seemed like he had a great time. Would highly recommend!”
“Extremely considerate and sent me updates and pictures of my cat! Consistently responded on time and made accommodations for my schedule change. Top tier cat boarders thanks again Elizabeth and Erik!”
