“ChatGPT said: I recently had the pleasure of leaving my 12-year-old dog, Pebbles, with Dee for 5 nights, and I couldn't be more pleased with the experience! Dee provided excellent care for Pebbles, always keeping me updated with great communication. I could tell Pebbles was comfortable and well-cared-for, which made me feel at ease during my time away. Dee's attentiveness and kindness truly shine, and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a loving, responsible dog sitter!”

“Shelley was great with our dog! She sent us photos and updates daily and was very communicative. She stopped by our house after pickup to grab something I accidentally brought with me when I picked up my dog. When my dog saw her again, she got all sorts of excited and showed her tons of doggie love which showed me how much my dog enjoyed her time there. The yard isn't fenced in which was a concern for me but it ended up not being a problem.”

He was living his best while he was with them, going on walks, hanging out pool side, meeting new people and fur friends. Loved the pictures and follow up Brandon provided. Definitely recommend him. Gibson was totally happy and exhausted when I picked him up. Thanks for taking such good care of him.”

We received updates along her stay and you could always see Mabel looked quite at home. Brooke’s updates let us know Mabel was loved and cared for while we were away. So glad we found Brooke!”

I would absolutely recommend Patricia to anyone needing a caring pet sitter.”

Camila sent us many beautiful photos of Bella throughout the weekend, which we thoroughly enjoyed and looked forward to receiving each day.

We would definitely recommend Camila to other pet owners and will reach out to her again when we need someone to watch our cat! Thanks, Camila!”

“Stop Scrolling! If you’re looking for professional, reliable help with your home or pets while you’re away, you’ve found her!

She even went above and beyond - handling an emergency that arose while we were across the country. She is definitely the only person I will call for house and pet sitting 💛”

We would definitely use her as a sitter again in the future!”

“Chelsie was amazing with our dog, Frankie! He’s nervous with new people, so she let him tag along behind her and nap nearby, and her kids were very soothing and gentle with him. She also sent 3 photos throughout the day. I would absolutely book her again! Thanks, Chelsie!”
“Lydia has been so flexible with pick-up/drop off times and is willing to watch our dog on short notice. Mac absolutely loves her and I know he’s so well taken care of when he stays with her. Most times he doesn’t want to leave! We will use Lydia for as long as she’ll have him! ❤️”

The dogs alternate between play outside and relaxing inside. She seems very competent at managing different dog's energies and needs. It isn't just a free for all playgroup. RIver makes sure dogs are a good match and supervises closely.”

About: i have several years of experience with both dogs and cats. I grew up on a farm and still live on one. Animals are my passion. I have trained a few of my personal dogs the basics and would love to spend more time with more animals. I drive school bus in the mornings monday - friday and host open houses on the weekends. i am very flexible during the day and evenings I take great pride in having the best care for the animals i look after. I always take care of every animal like my own. they are family not pets in my house.
About: Family of 4 animal lovers! We’ve had pets our entire lives and for the past year have been helping with dog fostering. Our two daughters love to help so your pet will receive plenty of attention, love, and playtime in our fully fenced backyard! I work from home so your pet will rarely be alone and will have plenty of companionship throughout the day. Pets are family here and are welcome to any furniture during their stay. We’d love to care for yours like one of our own! Our backyard is quite spacious and fully fenced in. If you’d like, we can definitely take your dog for a walk as our neighborhood is in a quiet suburb of Prior Lake without through traffic (our kids bike around with no fear). We also have two friendly cats who mostly keep to themselves (or cuddle with each other!) and will happily give your dog space.

I am an active retiree who loves to take walks with my dog, usually twice a day. Dogs in my care are treated as members of my family! I live in a quiet, friendly neighborhood with access to a large nearby park. My friendly Scottie will provide companionship & help calm initial jitters, if any. Food & treats are provided per owner's instructions. Water is always available. Pet updates provided per your request. Regular exercise and rest periods are provided daily.

About: I've been a pet owner since I was a child. In our 40+ year marriage, my wife and I have owned two Maltese, two Shelties, and two Shih Tzus. Each pair simultaneously. Intermittently during the last four decades, we have also owned cats. In addition, I took care of our daughter's Labrador mix for a year while she studied in Europe. And now, I fly to Austin, Texas when she vacations to care for her Great Pyrenees, a Chihuahua mix, and a cat. I currently manage the remnants of a company I founded from my basement office. My work typically occupies less than an hour daily and can be done outside regular business hours, so my pet care schedule is very flexible. I regularly walk our Shih Tzus around the neighborhood and, weather permitting, take them to a nearby dog park. I also play Fetch with them in the house and give them daily massages. I usually take one of the dogs with me when I run errands in the car.
“Nina was awesome walking Lucy! Lucy loved her and got great exercise with Nina! Nina communicated amazing with us sending pictures and giving us an update after each walk. Lucy can’t wait to see her again!”

About: I have taken care of dogs the last 5 years from walking dogs to staying overnight in others houses! Having dogs come here to sit makes me so happy and excited:) I have a 5 year old lab-husky mix who loved walks:) I have loved animals forever and know how to handle difficult situations! I’m currently working part-time as a restaurant server/bartender and my hours are no longer than 7 hours a shift on a long night. Other than that I currently have no commitments and have plenty of time to care for some puppers!! Lokkee is great with other dogs! We have a large yard, however, not fenced in. I have a spacious home with plenty of room for some doggy friends!
About: Growing up in Minnesota, I’ve had dogs my entire life and have also had a cat for most of my life, so caring for animals has always been a big part of who I am. In addition to caring for my own pets, I have house sat for several families and looked after their pets while they were away, providing dependable and loving care. I understand that every pet has their own unique personality, routine, and needs, and I strive to make them feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for while their owners are away. My experience babysitting, working at a daycare, and coaching children has also made me responsible, patient, and attentive, qualities I bring to every pet I care for. My goal is to treat every pet like my own, giving owners peace of mind that their furry family members are in good hands. I recently graduated from college and am home in Minnesota for the summer, which gives me full-time availability and plenty of flexibility to care for your pets. My schedule is very open, allowing me to accommodate walks, drop-in visits, house sitting, and overnight stays throughout the week and on weekends. I’m committed to providing dependable, attentive care and can easily adapt to your pet’s routine and needs. In my home, pets will be welcomed into a safe, loving environment in a friendly neighborhood with a nearby park and plenty of walking trails for exercise and enrichment. I understand that every pet has their own routine and comfort level, and I strive to make them feel as comfortable and at home as possible. When caring for pets in their own homes, I treat both the animals and the home with the utmost respect. I will follow all care instructions closely, maintain your pet’s regular routine, and provide plenty of attention, playtime, and affection to ensure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away.
About: I am certified in first aid and cpr for cats and dogs! Caring for pets has been such a joy for me and I will always go the extra mile for them. I've gained valuable experience in ensuring the happiness and health of household animals like cats and dogs, as well as farm animals like chickens and goats, enjoying every moment spent with these furry and feathered friends. Pet sitting fits well into my part time job as a server while still allowing me to provide the best care I can give to your babies. Whether it's feeding, playtime, or walks, I prioritize each pet's needs throughout the day. This flexible arrangement ensures pets receive consistent care and companionship. Caring for someone's pet in their home involves maintaining their routines and providing plenty of attention and affection. When pets stay in my home, I ensure they feel comfortable and loved while sticking to their familiar routines and introducing them to enriching activities. In both settings, my goal is to create a stress-free and enjoyable experience for the pets under my care.
About: I’ve owned and cared for dogs and cats for as long as I can remember. From our neighbors cat who we invited to our birthday parties as kids, to the 3 precious dogs I’ve had the honor of being a mama to. Nash (weimer) left us in 2019 at 12 years old. We just said goodbye to Oliver (Puggle) in August of 2025 at 17 years old! And we currently still get to love on Riggins, our 10 year old Frenchie. With Nash and Oliver living such long lives, I have experience caring for all ages, from puppies to seniors. I work from home full time as a sales executive, so my flexible schedule allows me to step away as needed for care. I am also an early riser, so I am available to breakfast feed an walk early. My dogs are my babies, so I know the importance of having someone to rely on. If you need me to drop in and/or feed or give medicine, potty break/walk etc. at a specific time, I understand how important it is to not be late. If they need something at 3:30, it will be 3:30, not 3:45.
About: I have owned Dogs, cats, Guinea pigs, rabbits, rats and more. Also have delivered puppies. I’ve always had animals growing up! I am very flexible on time and don’t mind making multiple runs or walks. Grooming is an option as well, boarding. I can and am willing to do a wide variety of requests. Experienced in training dogs and general health of animals. If I don’t know something specific, I am more than happy to do the research and educate myself properly to fulfill any questions or requests. Prices are also negotiable so don’t hesitate to give me a call at anytime. I look forward to hearing from you. Currently have a a flexible schedule. Available most times and days. Feel free to reach out with any specific time requests. I would be glad to help. I have a fenced in area for the dogs, cats are in home as well as kids. If animal does not get along with any of these, I will not accept.

They asked all the appropriate questions and it was very clear they wanted to make Bear feel at home while we were away. They were responsive, flexible, communicative, and so friendly!! We got several picture updates while on our trip and it made us feel so comfortable with being away. Bear looked so comfortable and happy in the pictures. He was taken on so many walks and played with… We could tell he was shown so much love! When we picked him up, he was still giving love to Amanda!

Miya, the beautiful furry friend, let Teddy into her home, shared her bed, walked with Teddy (many times a day) and even shared her humans!💕 With the continuous conversations and photos with Carrie, I knew how Teddy responded to a new home and how welcomed he felt in the 6 night stay. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone that needed their high energy, medium anxiety, and well loved dog taken care of for a few hours or a few days. Did I mention our English Setter likes a human to be next to him while he eats??? Thanks Mark, Carrie and Miya!”
“If I need care for my yellow lab again in the future, I wouldn't want to take her anyplace else! I appreciated Nicole and David's "meet and greet" so all of us could be sure it was a good situation for her. Nicole and David are lovely people, and my dog was well-cared for.”
“I was so anxious about leaving my baby with someone else since we’d never been separated, but River made sure I got videos and pictures daily, and she replied within a reasonable time whenever I inquired about my boy. I’d definitely recommend and plan to use her services again!”
