“Noel did very well with Bailey. I was a little concerned about her being not in the country where Bailey is use to having such a big yard to run but Noel took her to the lake, dog park, fetch in the yard. She also had a nice playmate for her. I got several pics of her enjoying her time there and that was nice. I would definite use Noel again.”

About: As a cat owner and former foster, I understand how to make cats feel safe and comfortable, especially shy or anxious ones. I’ve cared for a variety of cats, from energetic kittens to senior cats needing extra patience and attention. I tailor my care to each cat’s unique personality, whether that means playtime, quiet companionship, or gentle grooming. I also ensure litter boxes stay clean and fresh, creating a stress-free environment for your feline friend.

“Britt took excellent care of my two cats while we were away for the weekend. I got nice pictures and updates, and I came home to happy kitties. Definitely recommend!”

Christiana M.

About: I have owned cats my entire life. My very first pet was a Siamese cat named Emma that I got for Christmas when I was 7 years old. Since then I have owned pretty much every breed of cat throughout my lifetime. I have owned mama cats, and kittens. I have no problem cleaning litter boxes and have no allergies.

“Sav came to my rescue when I needed care for my 9yo Newfie following an unexpected health event of my father and sudden change in plans. Knowing my pup would receive high quality compassionate care allowed me to focus on my out of state family. Sav was responsive, attentive to detail, in tune with my senior pup’s needs, and her exceptional service brought me calm+confidence. I’m excited to have found a dependable new care giver that I can look to for future needs.”

“Julia took wonderful care of our cat, Harvey. She was very responsive and communication was excellent throughout. We felt completely at ease knowing he was in good hands. Highly recommend!”

“Liz was a wonderful caretaker of our 13 year-old male cat. He did not make it easy for her as he was a bit cranky, but she hung in there and did a great job.”

About: I’ve taken care of pets for atleast 10 years, for friends and family. I’ve become a pro walker and bather for furry friends. I’ve worked with seniors to puppies. I’ve given animals meds before as well! I’m currently working on my own hours as I please so I’m free for any walks or play time or just some good pets and treats! I have a big home with a big backyard, that isn’t fenced but I do that ties for pups that may need it but I don’t leave dogs unsupervised for potty time or playing fetch in the yard. I also have a kiddie pool for the pups that enjoy it like my lab puppy does! We love to take hikes around the area too so If your pup is up for it so am I! I do have 2 small dog crates for about 10lbs pups, and then I do have a crate for about a 70 lb pup if needed for anything. I also do have a lake property on the range with a dock that is available to use for hot summer days for pups that may be interested in jumping in and swimming!

About: Never lived without any animals. Family and friends relied on me since day one. To feed them, bathe, take them for walks, and too keep them longer then one night. All i do is sit at home right now, Rover is my job. Whenever a owner needs me, i’ll be available. Animals are my daily routine! I have a nice big home, with a big yard, that’s fenced in. The pets can lay on furniture, I have water and food down all day. But if they need there own space to eat, i got that covered. They will have there own area to them selfs.

About: Growing up surrounded by dogs, I developed a deep love and understanding of pet care from an early age. My home was always filled with the joy and energy that multiple dogs bring. This lifelong experience has given me a strong foundation in animal care and behavior. Today, I continue to nurture my passion for pets with two dogs of my own, ensuring they receive the best care and affection. We have a very large unfenced yard on 40 acres. We do not let dogs outside without being watched. Me and my Husband both work from home so your pets will never be left alone in a strangers home for hours on end! We can frequently step away to make sure your dogs allowed outside every couple of hours. I prioritize safety, trust, and environmental care when looking after pets, whether in my home or yours. I create a secure environment by eliminating hazards, using pet-safe products, and being prepared for emergencies. I build trust by understanding each pet's unique needs and keeping you informed with regular updates. I'm also environmentally conscious, using eco-friendly products and minimizing waste. Your pet's well-being is my top priority, ensuring they receive the best care in a safe and green environment.

About: My background in training dogs through agility classes, working with shy and special-needs animals, fostering cats, and managing dogs of all sizes at a daycare makes me uniquely qualified. I’ve also cared for farm animals, including geese, and I’m skilled in pet grooming. My patience, reliability, and ability to adapt to each pet’s unique personality ensure your pets are safe, loved, and well cared for. I have a steady work-life balance, working Monday-Friday from 6 AM to 3 PM. Pet care fits easily into my routine, as I am available for early morning, evening, and weekend visits. On Mondays, I travel to Duluth for agility training, so I can take pet-sitting jobs in that area. I’m also willing to drive within a 100-mile radius of my home to provide care, ensuring flexibility for pet owners who need reliable and loving service. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets, whether in my home or a client’s. I take the time to understand each pet’s needs, personality, and routine to create a stress-free and comfortable environment. I’m experienced with shy animals and work patiently to help them feel safe. In a client’s home, I respect their space while ensuring their pets receive attentive care, from feeding and playtime to maintaining a clean environment, including litter box upkeep. Whether it’s keeping a routine, providing enrichment, or offering extra care for special needs pets, I always prioritize their well-being.

About: I can be trusted to walk, feed/water, clean up after, trim nails, administrator medication for animals of all kinds. I have owned reptiles, cats, and dogs for many years. And worked on a farm. I have a full time job with flexible hours to suit your needs. As long as we speak ahead of time about a schedule. Available most weekends and holidays I am unable to care for cats or dogs in my home due to already having those pets myself. But upon discussion, you would be able to come to my home to see how I care for them.

“Julia is so great with my dog! She sent good photos and provided thoughtful feedback.”

About: I have owned dogs my entire life. I grew up with long haired dachshunds. I have also owned labs, a Dalmatian, huskies, you name it. I love big cuddly dogs the most, but will love up on the smallest to the biggest dog the same. I also have a big heart for senior pets. I work full-time during the week but I am always on the go and able to help with pet sitting, dog walking, helping with caring for animals as needed. I am available for house-sitting depending on the days/times. When I go to someone's home to care for their pet I will treat it as though it is my own pet, which is with the utmost care, kindness and love. I have a huge heart for all living beings including animals and humans. I am highly responsible, and responsive.

“I received a cuter pic of my dog sitting so pretty than I’ve ever been able to take. Sav was punctual and had good communication throughout. I know my dog is in good hands. Will book again!!”

I have a dog named ollie that I share custody of with my mom. he comes with me on all of the road trips and hikes. I’ve sat for family members and people in my area since I was 15. I also have reptile experience caring for chameleons and snakes. I’m here for any pet! Taking care of animals is my passion ☺️ I do photography full time so my schedule stays pretty flexible. I’m typically available on holidays! I don’t mind to travel a little for your furry friends, so don’t worry too much if you’re far away! I love spending most of my time with my cats. No matter what I’m doing—they’re at my feet or on my lap. My cat moo comes on hikes with me! I enjoy getting fur babies out of the house into the world. I have a dog cover on the back seats in my car. I will always reach out to ask before traveling with your dog, this is not necessary, just an offer! :)
