“I’ve re-booked with Stacy now and it’s been so seamless each time! She’s been flexible and my dog Jax really enjoys it here and appears very comfortable while under her care!”
“My pup loves Cynthia and her place! Lots of dogs to socialize with, tons of exercise in the big and fenced backyard, plus abundant love and care is given to all the 4-legged friends. Just between you and me, I think my pup would rather live there than go home with me! A good problem to have 😁 Can’t recommend enough!”
“Absolutely wonderful. This was Oliver's first time going to a pet sitter. I of course was worried but of course my worry was unwarranted. Oliver had a great time playing with the other dog and came home happy, healthy and exhausted from the ability to play and socialization that dogs need. I would recommend Drew without hesitation.”
“Jennifer took wonderful care of my dog while I was away, and I really appreciated how attentive and communicative she was throughout the stay. She sent daily updates, checked in about any concerns, and was very thoughtful when my dog didn’t want to eat the first day — which is normal for her in new environments. I also appreciated the time she took to have us come over beforehand so we could meet her and her dogs and make sure it was a good fit. She was responsive, caring, and clearly experienced with dogs. I felt very comfortable leaving my dog with her and would absolutely recommend her to others.”
“Can you give double 5 star ratings?? Margarita was so wonderful for us and our fur baby! She treated Pip like part of the family, sent us pictures, created fun videos, dealt with the spring shedding season, and even gave him a bath so he would be clean for the trip we were taking after picking him up. She is amazing!”
“Brooke did an excellent job taking care of my dog, Bruno. He’s a large German Shepherd and can be pretty anxious in new situations, but she handled him with patience and care. She clearly knows what she’s doing and took extra time to make sure he was comfortable. She also kept me updated throughout the day, which I really appreciated. Everything went smoothly, and I wouldn’t hesitate to trust her with him again.”
“David was great to work with and we felt very comfortable leaving our pup in his hands. He consistently communicated with us providing updates which gave us peace of mind that Bo was in good company & care.”
“Andria took amazing care of our two dogs for a 9 day stay. I felt like they were really just part of her family for the week. We got updates and some cute photos too. I would not hesitate to book with her again!”
“Michelle was fantastic with Juniper. Juniper is a super nervous dog and Michelle was very patient with her. Gave me plenty of updates knowing how nervous I was. Will definitely book with her in the future!”
“Very friendly people who made my Pom feel comfortable and happy. Great to have a very accessible backyard fence to roam and play with their two dogs. Someone home all the time. Great communication and photos each day.”
“Rachel was great with our dogs, she took them on short notice, she treated our dogs like family, took them for walks, sent us pictures and videos daily. We would absolutely recommend her and use her again! Our dogs loved her! Thank you!!!”
“Took great care of my dog, Scout!! Took the time to find out about her needs, routines and behavior. I knew right away she would be in wonderful hands. Definitely would recommend!!”

“Brittany was quick to respond to our request for help and checked in on Alice, our cat, multiple times over the course of a few weeks, offering great pictures and updates every time. We really appreciate how enthused she was about the check-ins, and of course for providing Alice top-quality care.”
“Aly was so communicative and helpful! She got my shy kitty to show his face and was extremely detail oriented when providing summaries and her observations of my cats and house! She even helped with ants that had taken over my house!”
“Angelina was very prompt with her messaging. She was reliable as she showed up at the appropriate time and followed my pets care instructions exactly. I came home to find my furry friend properly cared for. I would use her again!”

“Shylina, Shyliiinaaa! Top notch! We are so blessed and thankful to have found such a good person to check in on our fur baby! We can’t sing her phrases enough! Our cat has diabetes and needs a little extra care and attention around feeding time. Shylina gave us peace of mind while away for one of his feedings & injection. Binx was so well taken care of, and we didn’t have to worry about a thing. Shylina gave us a full report and sent pics of Binx. The drop in visit went without hitch and we couldn’t be more happy. Shylina is so professional and good with our pet. She is a true animal lover. Honestly, in terms of finding a pet sitter it’s more of a question of: Does she have time and want to come back than, would we have her back? We wouldn’t hesitate. Again, we are grateful to have found someone trustworthy and who cares about our pet. 😆 Shylina is the best! Thank you Shylina!”

I would love to make pet sitting/walking a major part of my life. I would be able to watch pets at the owners' home. I will be able to watch them overnight, and or come over to check on them as well as taking walks and playing with them.
“We are so happy to have had Shurie come by to visit with our cats this weekend. So nice to be able to get away and know that your family is in good hands. We so appreciate Shurie!! She is so nice, and the cats loved her. Thank you so much Shurie, we thank you very, very much!!”
“Samantha and her kids took great care of my kitten while I was getting my new apartment ready.

She will treat your pet like royalty while under her care!”

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover and a proud pet parent who truly believes pets are part of the family. ❤️ I’m dependable, caring, and attentive, and I’ll treat your pets with the same love and attention I’d want for my own. I know how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pets in someone else’s care, so I make communication a priority.

At this time I do prefer to watch pets in their own home where they are familiar with their surroundings. I will board pets at my home, but I do live on a fairly busy highway with an unfenced yard. If you wish for me to watch your pet in my home, I do ask that they are very well trained off leash or are content being on a long leash outside. I ask this for your pets safety & would absolutely hate for something to happen. When watching pets in my home, my husband comes home every day for lunch during the week and can accommodate play time & bathroom breaks.

“Margarita has been a wonderful, flexible, accommodating, understanding, champion for me and Spike. He is having a good time there. When I get him he is always a happy puppy and I can tell he is well taken care of. He comes home and he likes to take naps afterward, poor puppy having so much fun with her dogs and her cute youn son. Nice open space for Spike to walk on leash and not worry about his safety. Definitely booking again (already have the reservations). It’s nice to know that my 11week puppy has a loving and caring place that takes care of him while I am at work.”
“Matt and Angela took great care of my dog Osi! Osi and their dog, Alfie, had so much fun together. Osi is definitely looking forward to his next play date. Highly recommend Matt and Angela!”
“Andria's family and dog are all very friendly towards my puppy. Nori had a blast there. He got home and fell asleep within 30 minutes, so I didn't have to spend a lot of time playing with him in the evening:) Andria also captured a few great photos of Nori running in the snow with his new friend. Love the photos!”
“Rhea was fantastic with Dodger! I needed a sitter within two hours of reaching out to her and she made it happen. Very grateful for her. She's great, trust her with your pup.”

“My dog and I had a great experience with Scott and Jennifer! I unexpectedly needed to travel to Rochester for the day from Minneapolis and Scott and Jennifer were extremely responsive and able to accommodate a last minute booking for my 13 week old puppy and sent me lots of videos and photos of their adventures throughout the day. Would definitely recommend and use again next time I am in the area!”
“David was so great. He took Bandido on last minute for an afternoon and evening. Went very smoothly. David was obviously comfortable with big dogs. I will definitely use David in the future.”
“Michelle was great! She helped me out with a last minute request. Arlo had a great time staying at her place. I would definitely recommend boarding with her! Thank you so much Michelle :)”
About: Relocated here from Iowa. Enjoy working with different dogs. Pet lover. I completed 6 months of Veterinarian Assistant classes online. Life happened and I had to take a pause. But I am thinking about going back and finish obtaining my associates degree in the field. So whether it be house sitting with the animals or simply doing some walking or activities, I don't mind and will enjoy my time with them. Its something I enjoy as one of my hobbies. I am available during the week days. Every other weekend I work night shift at this time. I enjoy play time with pets because they too have different personalities. Love Dogs. We cuddle mostly and play. Take walks outside. Play fetch with their toys. It's cool to go to the backyard and be socialable with nature. I think it helps with sensory awareness.

About: I have 5 amazing dogs of my own, 1 pitbull, 2 American Eskimo mini and 2 Pomeranians. I had 2 liter of puppies from my dogs (1st liter was 10 pups, 2nd liter was 5 pups) and was able to raise them well for their furever home. I run a lot, so if your dog needs to exercise, you can count me in. Or simply needs a rest day, or any kind of special needs, I’m your girl. I work full time and have my own babies to care for, but I’m a super dog mom so I’m pretty flexible and prepared for anything. With my own experiences of owning 5 dogs, and raising 15 puppies, I feel like that should speak for itself. I do have a fenced in yard, I love dogs and I want them to be happy while they're with me or their own homes.

I can do early mornings to late nights. I’m always able to help with anything! I’m very detail oriented and need straightforward instructions in order to properly care for a pet. The more straightforward the instructions the better! I treat any pet as if they were my own. Maybe a chance to spoil with my special frozen pet friendly watermelon slush for the hot summer days? Or a little trip to get a pup cup? My dogs are spoiled and I miss them so much so this would be a win-win for the both of us 🤣

About: Hi there! My name is Savannah, and I recently moved to the area! I grew up around dogs/cats of all kinds my whole life and have previous experience with dog sitting for friends while they were away on trips. I’ve also volunteered at my local animal shelter, where I spent time caring for and walking both dogs and cats. You don’t need to worry about traveling, as I have my own vehicle to travel. Because I work part time at a clinic, I’m available only afternoons and nights during the week. However, I'm available all day during the weekends. If you need a sitter, I would be unavailable to take them to my own house, but can stop in/stay at your place. Caring for an pet greatly depends on the pet themselves and the owner's desires. I love to play and be active with the animals if allowed. If a pet is older and doesn't like to be active for long, I enjoy just spending the quality time so they aren't lonely while their owner is away. I also always check in with the client about their pet's basic needs, such as how much they are fed and how often, how often they are let out, if there is any needs for any disabilities, etc.

“My wife and I recently moved to red wing and have used Samantha as our go-to sitter/walker. She has been awesome! She’s punctual, responsive, and affordable. Not to mention great with the dogs! They are always happy to see her. We are very glad to have found Samantha and cannot recommend her enough.”
About: I have taken care of kittens, puppies, dogs. I have also trained my dog when I was younger when she was a puppy. I’m just here to help. If there’s anything I can do please let me know. I’d love to be a part of making sure your vacation or your day is less stressful I am in school and also I will be working from home. Going to the office a couple times a week so I am very flexible. I will ask to understand your needs wants and values period if there are certain things that you need accommodations, for I would love to understand them so that we can have a very clear understanding so that you can enjoy your time away from your pets as best as possible.

“I’ve re-booked with Stacy now and it’s been so seamless each time! She’s been flexible and my dog Jax really enjoys it here and appears very comfortable while under her care!”
“My pup loves Cynthia and her place! Lots of dogs to socialize with, tons of exercise in the big and fenced backyard, plus abundant love and care is given to all the 4-legged friends. Just between you and me, I think my pup would rather live there than go home with me! A good problem to have 😁 Can’t recommend enough!”
“Absolutely wonderful. This was Oliver's first time going to a pet sitter. I of course was worried but of course my worry was unwarranted. Oliver had a great time playing with the other dog and came home happy, healthy and exhausted from the ability to play and socialization that dogs need. I would recommend Drew without hesitation.”
“Jennifer took wonderful care of my dog while I was away, and I really appreciated how attentive and communicative she was throughout the stay. She sent daily updates, checked in about any concerns, and was very thoughtful when my dog didn’t want to eat the first day — which is normal for her in new environments. I also appreciated the time she took to have us come over beforehand so we could meet her and her dogs and make sure it was a good fit. She was responsive, caring, and clearly experienced with dogs. I felt very comfortable leaving my dog with her and would absolutely recommend her to others.”
“Can you give double 5 star ratings?? Margarita was so wonderful for us and our fur baby! She treated Pip like part of the family, sent us pictures, created fun videos, dealt with the spring shedding season, and even gave him a bath so he would be clean for the trip we were taking after picking him up. She is amazing!”
“Brooke did an excellent job taking care of my dog, Bruno. He’s a large German Shepherd and can be pretty anxious in new situations, but she handled him with patience and care. She clearly knows what she’s doing and took extra time to make sure he was comfortable. She also kept me updated throughout the day, which I really appreciated. Everything went smoothly, and I wouldn’t hesitate to trust her with him again.”
“David was great to work with and we felt very comfortable leaving our pup in his hands. He consistently communicated with us providing updates which gave us peace of mind that Bo was in good company & care.”
“Andria took amazing care of our two dogs for a 9 day stay. I felt like they were really just part of her family for the week. We got updates and some cute photos too. I would not hesitate to book with her again!”
“Michelle was fantastic with Juniper. Juniper is a super nervous dog and Michelle was very patient with her. Gave me plenty of updates knowing how nervous I was. Will definitely book with her in the future!”
“Took great care of my dog, Scout!! Took the time to find out about her needs, routines and behavior. I knew right away she would be in wonderful hands. Definitely would recommend!!”
“Kami is the best! She took such great care of our two dogs who stayed with her for 2 weeks. We loved all of the photos she sent and we could tell how happy and loved our dogs were. Highly recommend!”
