“Kristy is the best! We had the best weekend away knowing Izzy was well taken care of. We received tons of photos & Izzy went on several walks. Even when Izzy decided to be a handful, Kristy handled it with grace! 10/10 would recommend and definitely would re-book (if Izzy is allowed 🤣)”

“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.”

“Amelia was so giving and caring. She made sure the Yorkie was loved and asked me questions before trying new things to calm her. Loved the respect and honest report with Amelia. I would trust her to take care of any dog.”

About: I've lived with and cared for dogs most of my life and they always love to hang out with me when I'm around. My friends tell me when I come over I spend more time playing with their dog than I do hanging out with them. Always stoked to meet more fur friends! Currently working part time sharpening clipper blades and scissors for groomers so I get to see local fur friends often and I have plenty of time to hang out with them. I am very good at intuitively knowing when a dog needs something when I take care of dogs in their home, and I am also very attentive to the preferences of the owner for any special treatment their pup might need. I prefer to get familiar with a new dog before bringing them to my house but I can be an excellent host! I have acres of land out at my place and tons of groomed trails to take them around me.

About: I have many years of personal experience caring for dogs, cats, and rabbits. I love animals and will treat your pets as if they were my own. I work full time, but I’m available before 9 and after 5 M-F. I have all day availability on Saturday and Sunday. I might be able to go during my lunch if close by. I have a fenced in yard. I great responsibility to care for my animals. I make sure to keep dogs in a leash when walking them and to use caution crossing the street and around cars.

“Our girls had a great time staying with Mary. They were well taken care of care of and we got pictures and updates often! We will be using her again!”

“Scott was very easy to work with!”

About: I have 2 Dogs and one cat of my own. One of my dogs is diabetic so she receives two insulin shots a day. This is something I can provide to pets. I am currently working from home and would easily be able to walk dogs or check in on animals at anytime throughout the day. This would fit well. I have two friendly dogs of my own and my yard is fenced in. At other people’s homes I would walk dogs on a hand held leash if the yard was not fenced in.

“Talia did an awesome job house and pet sitting while we were out of town for a little over a week! She was always quick to respond to my texts and came right up for a meet and greet before booking. She sent lots of cute pictures and updates on the kitties and pups while we were away. She is Baby cat's new best friend! And she was very patient with our shy kitty who is new to house sitters. Upon our return home, the house was in great condition and the pets were all well loved and cared for. We highly recommend Talia and we look forward to having her come again on our future trips!!”

“Thank you so much for going above and beyond on a Holiday weekend. We truly appreciate it. We will definitely use you again. You’re fantastic”

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.

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.

“Had a great vacation knowing my Kitty Boy was taken care of! Thank you so much!”

Aimee S.

“Amber did a great job! When our cat didn’t eat breakfast and take his medicine, Amber went back in the evening to check on him! She went above and beyond. Thank you, Amber!”

Carrie J.

“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.”

Candice M.

“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!”

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: 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 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.

“Wonderful service. Am glad she is walking our Wilma weekly!”

About: I have two cats of my own. My tuxedo lu has been around since I was super little, I’ve carried her with me everywhere i go! My fluffy boy moo was a rescue a few years ago, he’s a big sweetie. 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! :)

“Kristy is the best! We had the best weekend away knowing Izzy was well taken care of. We received tons of photos & Izzy went on several walks. Even when Izzy decided to be a handful, Kristy handled it with grace! 10/10 would recommend and definitely would re-book (if Izzy is allowed 🤣)”
