“In such a short notice, Andrea was able to fit in Louie to her schedule! It’s been a while since we booked with Andrea but Louie surely remembered her and her dad which was very comforting. She also made sure we were updated with pictures and videos! I highly recommend her services!”

“I love having Jasmine watch my dog while I am out of town! This is the third time she has cared for my dog and I can tell my dog has a great time while we are away! Highly recommended Jasmine!!”

“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.”

“Drew was very responsive. He also was very understanding about a new allergy complaint for my dog which required Benadryl and ointments, which he was gracious enough to administer during her stay. Would definitely recommend!”


“Michelle is amazing! She made sure our dog Rue had a fun and comfortable stay and was very responsive. Her kids were also very respectful of our dog and it sounds like she had lots of fun with them! Will definitely book with Michelle again!”

“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.”

“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.”

“Margarita was very nice and knowledgeable about dogs. Our dog was only there a little over 24 hrs, but she sent pictures and made us feel quite comfortable with choosing her for dog care. Highly recommend her to others!”


“10 STARS !!!!!! Our sitter canceled at the last minute and Katelynn was able to take all three dogs. We were leaving for a 10 day cruise trip and so appreciate her taking them in. These boys received absolutely THE best care. WE could tell through the pics and video we received. Katelynn was thorough, confident, loving and definitely trustworthy. We could not be happier! Oscar, Rain, and Jasper had a great time with Katelynn, I could tell! Do yourself a favor and book your pups in a beautiful home with lots of doggie love! Thanks again to Katelynn and her husband for making our vacation a relaxing one!”

“Cooper enjoyed his stay at Cynthia’s place. Couldn’t have asked for a better place for our dog. Cynthia was flexible and communicated with us about Cooper during his stay. We have found a home away from home for Cooper and will book again!”

“Our pup came home totally exhausted after a few days with Em! Our Arlo can be a handful and we had absolutely no worries leaving him at Em’s place. The photos & updates were wonderful. Highly recommend – we will book again!”

“Ruby had a great time with this sweet family. Kyle was very responsive and sent lots of pictures for us to see while we were away. She came home seeming to have good energy, which tells me she was happy there. Thanks for caring for our fur baby! Hope we meet again!”

“There aren’t words to describe how happy we were with Elizabeth and the care she provided our Beau… she treated him as if he was hers and I couldn’t have asked for more… The amount of pictures and updates she provided was absolutely fantastic and so so so greatly appreciated! I didn’t worry about him in the slightest while we were away, just missed him! Thank you so much Elizabeth ❤️”

“Charity made our pup feel like he was right at home and part of the family. Communication was great. Will definitely be reaching out to her when we have another trip out of town.”

About: I have been around dogs and cats for many years, and some farm animals. I currently have two adult cats and one young dog. We live on 5.5 acres that are fenced-ish, but the yard is certainly not escape proof. My dog Scribble loves to play, especially with new dog buddies. He never gets tired. We have loop trails through meadow and woods all year round on the homestead but will also explore all of Dodge Center with pups on leash walks. I will also try obstacle courses and other games depending on what your dog is up for. I have yet to meet a cat I could not draw out at least a little. For dogs, we will have to try a temperament test with Scribble, who always wants to play more. I can offer boarding on weekends only because I am at my day job for long days Monday through Friday. I can offer pet drop in visits or dog walks in the evening year-round as long as your dog will share a walk with Scribble. A quick cat visit is easy any evening. Your pup's weekend will involve play sessions, games, leash walks and possibly unleashed walks and play, and exploring with exercise. Until I know your dog can be trusted off-leash and we explore the full property a few times, we will do leash walks only on our loop trails (about 20 minutes casual pace to walk them all). Our field is great for playing and offers lots of space to run around. There is always plenty to sniff and explore, with a trail around a pond, and many rabbits, squirrels, birds and deer about. Scribble never gets tired of exploring, and neither will your pet, even if we stay on leash. For cats, I can set up a private spare room and time to explore chaperoned. A private room will have a human bed, cat beds, catnip mats, and at least one climbing tower. Your cat will need to be okay with my guys hissing under the door initially and Scribble coming around to say hi with his tail wagging.
“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.”

“Emily did a fabulous job taking care of our cats for the week. We were amused and entertained by the photos on each visit. She learned the cats’ personalities and gave each the attention they wanted. Came home to healthy and happy fur babies!”

“Angelina did a wonderful job checking in on my three cats while I was on vacation. She sent lots of photos and updated me on how my cats were doing while I was away, which took a lot of weight and stress off my shoulders. Thank you very much! Would happily request again for any drop-in needs.”

“Aly did a great job looking after my kitty Paprika. Wonderful daily updates, plants watered, mail collected, and everything tidy just as I left it. Would definitely book again!”


About: I am fluent with cat-speak and tail swishes and will quietly bond your furballs be they active or sleepy. I have worked with strays and super shy, scared kittens, drawing them out with cardboard box houses, string toys, butterflies on a wire, or just sitting and reading with them.
About: I have been around animals my entire life and have always had a special place in my heart for dogs. Growing up on a farm, I gained hands-on experience caring for a variety of animals, including dogs, cats, rabbits, chickens, and goats. From feeding and providing daily care to making sure each animal was safe, comfortable, and well cared for, animals have always been an important part of my life. I have also provided dog-sitting and pet care for family members and friends over the years. These experiences have taught me the importance of being dependable, attentive, and patient while caring for someone else’s pets. I am currently working as a nanny part time with days varying by week. I am available all weeknights after 4:30pm and most weekends Thursday-Sunday! I provide care in the owners’ homes, allowing pets to remain in a familiar environment with their usual routines, belongings, and comforts. I take safety seriously and will carefully follow your instructions regarding feeding, medications, walks, access to the home, and emergency contacts. I will also keep your home secure, provide regular updates, and treat your space and pets with respect.

About: I’ve been around cats my entire life and have experience caring for family members’ cats while they were away. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes, providing playtime and companionship, and making sure cats feel safe and comfortable in their own environment. I understand that every cat has a unique personality, and I’m happy to adapt to their needs—whether they love attention and play or prefer a calmer, quieter approach. My goal is to give both you and your cat peace of mind while you’re apart.
“Brittney was so amazing with our two kitties. She was responsive and gave them so much attention and really made us feel secure while away. I will definitely be using her again in the future!”


“Emma was great with communication and I felt comfortable leaving Avena in her care. Clearly Avena had a great day because she’s been napping on and off since I picked her up 😂 thank you, Emma, for taking care of my girl ☺️”

“We were very impressed with Hound's thorough care of our needy girl! It was clear that Paprika warmed up to Hound quickly -- we could tell in the many wonderful pictures we received of Paprika on Hound's lap. I appreciated Hound's openness to take on this last-minute booking for our energetic cat. We definitely will rebook with Hound next time we are looking for a sitter.”

About: I have experience caring for my family’s dogs as well as my boyfriend’s dog while their owners are out of town. I ensure they are taken outside for bathroom breaks before coming inside, maintain a consistent feeding schedule, and always make sure they have fresh food and water. I also enjoy working with dogs on basic training and have successfully taught my own dog commands such as “sit” and “shake.” Im currently a full time student at RCTC in the dental assistant program but I am willing to accommodate what works for you and your pets! I care for pets like they’re my own. I make sure pets are well feed and have water. I make sure to keep an eye on them well outside.
About: I have always been around animals and have had pets my entire life, including cats, dogs, and even birds. I really enjoy taking care of all animals and providing excellent service. My family has a bird, two shih tzus, and a cat. I have frequently been around bigger breeds as well so I am comfortable with any-sized pet. I have experience walking other people's dogs and pet sitting for family and family friends. I am busy this summer preparing for college in the fall, but I wanted something that I care about to fill some of my free time. I am also saving up for college expenses. 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've used Mikaela quite a few times now and have always been very impressed with her! She does so great with our old kitty. And she always goes above and beyond bringing packages in, or even putting ice melt down on our driveway after an ice storm while we were gone! As long as she keeps doing it, we will keep using her!”


“She did an amazing job with my cat Mickey. She provided a lot of updates about what was happening at my house and how Mickey was doing. I would recommend her to anyone who needs someone to watch their pet!”

“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.”

“First time at doggy daycare for our 7 yr old Chi mix - both he and our puppy were well cared for and arrived home this evening tired snd happy. Knowing they were safe made our time away worry free! Thank you Stacy for a great experience.”

“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.”

“Bean had the best time with Scott & Jennifer! They kept us updated & sent adorable pictures of Bean throughout the visit! We highly recommend them & will be bringing Bean back again!”

“Maple is a quarky dog so he can a lot at times. Takes him a bit to settle in and enjoy new surroundings. Matt and Angela were awesome and so welcoming. Takes a special person to open their home and help out others. They are the best.”

“Jennifer gave Roxie breakfast and dinner every day. I think my dog liked to play with kids and other dogs. They have a big yard, so she enjoyed in the yard. I think she had a good time there. I would like to use that dog care when we go to Rochester. Thank you very much!!”

“Marissa had our dog over for daycare and he had such a great time playing with her dog. He was happy and tired when he got home. Marissa was great with providing updates and photos frequently and she was very quick to respond to texts. Overall, she's a great sitter and we will definitely be contacting her again for more doggy daycare 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 :)”


“Katelynn made our first experience with Rover so easy. Leaving a new puppy with someone for the first time can be stressful but Katelynn sent us photos of our girl warming up and settling in. She has so much knowledge and experience with pets and things went so smooth we already have our next sitting scheduled.”

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’ve always loved being around animals and have experience caring for dogs of different personalities and needs. Over the years, I’ve been trusted to care for pets while their owners are away, making sure they’re fed, walked, played with, and given plenty of love and attention. I know how important it is to leave your pet with someone you can truly trust. I pay close attention to each dog’s normal routine and personality so they can feel as comfortable and happy as possible while you’re away. Whether your pup loves long walks, playing outside, cuddling on the couch, or just having someone nearby, I’m happy to give them the kind of care they’re used to. I’ll treat your dog like they’re my own and make sure you feel comfortable too. I’m also happy to send plenty of pictures and updates so you can see how your pup is doing while they’re with me! 🐾 I work from home, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to be available throughout the day for your pup! I also have a Golden Retriever of my own, so walks, potty breaks, playtime, and lots of attention are already a natural part of my daily routine. Since I’m home most of the day, I’m able to give your dog plenty of attention and companionship without them being left alone for long periods of time. I’m happy to adjust to their normal feeding, walking, and potty schedule so they can feel as comfortable as possible. Having another furry friend around would be a welcome addition to our day! 🐾 Your pet’s safety and comfort are extremely important to me. We live on just over 5 acres with plenty of space to explore and our own walking trails throughout the property, which are perfect for getting outside, going on walks, and getting some energy out! Since I already have a Golden Retriever of my own, our home is very dog-friendly and we naturally have plenty of dog toys, supplies, and space for pups to feel comfortable. Our property is not fenced, so dogs will never be allowed to roam outside unsupervised. I’m more than happy to use a secure in-ground tie-out for dogs who are comfortable with one, or keep them leashed whenever we’re outside. I understand that every dog has their own routine, personality, and comfort level, so I’ll always follow your instructions and do my best to make your pup feel safe, loved, and at home while they’re in my care. Before their stay, I’d love for you to tell me a little about your pup—their personality, daily routine, favorite things, any quirks or tendencies they may have, and anything else you think I should know. The more I know about them, the better I can make their time with me feel comfortable and familiar! 🐾

“Emily is great with pets and went above and beyond to give my pup a good day and plenty of exercise. Great communication and photographs, prompt replies to everything.

About: HELLO! I have been taking care of all kinds of dogs from pups to senior pets who have special needs. I have done stuff like this ever since I was in middle school.

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 🤣

I also enjoy working with dogs on basic training and have successfully taught my own dog commands such as “sit” and “shake.” Im currently a full time student at RCTC in the dental assistant program but I am willing to accommodate what works for you and your pets! I care for pets like they’re my own. I make sure pets are well feed and have water. I make sure to keep an eye on them well outside.

“Miranda and her husband took fantastic care of my puppy. This was our first experience with a boarder and Penny was welcomed and felt very comfortable with them. Highly recommend!”

“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.”

“Drew was very responsive. He also was very understanding about a new allergy complaint for my dog which required Benadryl and ointments, which he was gracious enough to administer during her stay. Would definitely recommend!”

“Emma was great with communication and I felt comfortable leaving Avena in her care. Clearly Avena had a great day because she’s been napping on and off since I picked her up 😂 thank you, Emma, for taking care of my girl ☺️”


“Michelle is amazing! She made sure our dog Rue had a fun and comfortable stay and was very responsive. Her kids were also very respectful of our dog and it sounds like she had lots of fun with them! Will definitely book with Michelle again!”

“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.”

“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.”

“Margarita was very nice and knowledgeable about dogs. Our dog was only there a little over 24 hrs, but she sent pictures and made us feel quite comfortable with choosing her for dog care. Highly recommend her to others!”


“10 STARS !!!!!! Our sitter canceled at the last minute and Katelynn was able to take all three dogs. We were leaving for a 10 day cruise trip and so appreciate her taking them in. These boys received absolutely THE best care. WE could tell through the pics and video we received. Katelynn was thorough, confident, loving and definitely trustworthy. We could not be happier! Oscar, Rain, and Jasper had a great time with Katelynn, I could tell! Do yourself a favor and book your pups in a beautiful home with lots of doggie love! Thanks again to Katelynn and her husband for making our vacation a relaxing one!”

“Cooper enjoyed his stay at Cynthia’s place. Couldn’t have asked for a better place for our dog. Cynthia was flexible and communicated with us about Cooper during his stay. We have found a home away from home for Cooper and will book again!”

“Our pup came home totally exhausted after a few days with Em! Our Arlo can be a handful and we had absolutely no worries leaving him at Em’s place. The photos & updates were wonderful. Highly recommend – we will book again!”

“Ruby had a great time with this sweet family. Kyle was very responsive and sent lots of pictures for us to see while we were away. She came home seeming to have good energy, which tells me she was happy there. Thanks for caring for our fur baby! Hope we meet again!”

“Matt & Angela were amazing and couldn’t recommend them more! I have never left my dog, Jax, with anyone other than family while I was out of town. Finding someone I could trust, and love on him as their own was extremely important to me. Matt sent daily pictures and updates to me letting me know how Jax was doing and what he was up to or enjoying that day. Both Matt & Angela went above and beyond to make sure Jax was comfortable and well loved. We will definitely be booking again :)”

“There aren’t words to describe how happy we were with Elizabeth and the care she provided our Beau… she treated him as if he was hers and I couldn’t have asked for more… The amount of pictures and updates she provided was absolutely fantastic and so so so greatly appreciated! I didn’t worry about him in the slightest while we were away, just missed him! Thank you so much Elizabeth ❤️”

“Charity made our pup feel like he was right at home and part of the family. Communication was great. Will definitely be reaching out to her when we have another trip out of town.”

About: I have been around dogs and cats for many years, and some farm animals. I currently have two adult cats and one young dog. We live on 5.5 acres that are fenced-ish, but the yard is certainly not escape proof. My dog Scribble loves to play, especially with new dog buddies. He never gets tired. We have loop trails through meadow and woods all year round on the homestead but will also explore all of Dodge Center with pups on leash walks. I will also try obstacle courses and other games depending on what your dog is up for. I have yet to meet a cat I could not draw out at least a little. For dogs, we will have to try a temperament test with Scribble, who always wants to play more. I can offer boarding on weekends only because I am at my day job for long days Monday through Friday. I can offer pet drop in visits or dog walks in the evening year-round as long as your dog will share a walk with Scribble. A quick cat visit is easy any evening. Your pup's weekend will involve play sessions, games, leash walks and possibly unleashed walks and play, and exploring with exercise. Until I know your dog can be trusted off-leash and we explore the full property a few times, we will do leash walks only on our loop trails (about 20 minutes casual pace to walk them all). Our field is great for playing and offers lots of space to run around. There is always plenty to sniff and explore, with a trail around a pond, and many rabbits, squirrels, birds and deer about. Scribble never gets tired of exploring, and neither will your pet, even if we stay on leash. For cats, I can set up a private spare room and time to explore chaperoned. A private room will have a human bed, cat beds, catnip mats, and at least one climbing tower. Your cat will need to be okay with my guys hissing under the door initially and Scribble coming around to say hi with his tail wagging.

“We are beyond happy with Stevie’s stay. It felt like we were leaving her with family, not just boarding her at a strangers house. She was spoiled and loved on and it showed through the pictures that we got while away!”
