“Kelley is far and away the best dog sitter I’ve ever had. I left my dog with her for a long weekend and had absolutely no worries that he was safe and happy! I appreciated the updates and pictures from Kelley throughout, and it was clear my dog was so happy! I highly recommend Kelley, she is great and genuinely loves dogs.”
“So thankful for Mary and her availability this weekend! We traveled in and needed somewhere for our fur baby to stay, and she was so willing on a last minute notice. The updates sent throughout the day reassured me he was in good hands! Her communication is clear and I know I’ll suggest in the future for any of our traveling friends in the future. Thank you again Mary ❤️ wishing many blessings for you!”
“Kayla was great to work with. She was efficient and organized. It’s clear our little guy received great care with her. We will totally contact Kayla again if we need a sitter! She seems to have a true heart for animals!!”
“She was very sweet, sent me pictures of my baby, always keeping me updated. Took her on walks to nice places and made sure she was comfortable, made the process very easy and will work with your schedule of things. Great pet sitter <3”
About: I’ve grown up surrounded by animals my entire life and have cared for just about every kind of pet you can imagine — dogs, cats, bunnies, chinchillas, birds, and more. Animals have always been a huge part of my home and my heart. I’m comfortable with all personalities, all sizes, and all needs. Your pet will be treated like family, because that’s the only way I know how to care for them. Pet care fits easily into my routine because I have a very flexible schedule and am available most days and times. I prioritize the pets I’m caring for, so I’m able to adjust my day around their needs — whether that’s feeding, walks, playtime, or drop-in visits. I’m reliable, responsive, and able to accommodate last-minute or recurring bookings. I care for pets by keeping their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. In a client’s home, I follow all instructions closely — feeding schedules, medication needs, crate routines, potty breaks, and preferred playtime activities. I make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and well-supervised, and I always take extra time for love, attention, and enrichment. I keep the home tidy, respect your space, and send regular updates and photos so you know your pet is happy and well cared for.
About: I have loved animals since I was old enough to walk. I’ve always been drawn to them. I currently work in a vet clinic where I get to fulfill my passion and would love to be able to take care of your pets :) I work 4 days a week right now but I am looking for a little extra money to put aside for a new car eventually! I have two friendly dogs and a cat that would love to keep your fur baby company (the cat not so much) and I want to love on them just like you!

“Julianne was great! Cats were fed, watered and boxes were cleaned, so I was very happy. The only bad thing was I think they forgot about me and think of Jules as their new human servant!”
About: I’ve watched animals for family, friends, neighbors, and strangers for many years. I have a very flexible schedule due to being an Graduate student. I have taken care of all kinds of dogs and cats, and I promise to take care of them like they’re my own! I am a full-time student, but my schedules allows for open mornings, afternoons, and evenings. I can take up to a 1 hour walk each visit, and visit your home up to 3 times a day. I will take care of your fur baby like it’s my own.

About: While I love all the animals I’ve cared for, cats are my favorite. I am passionate about cat rescuing, recently just adopting my own FIV+, mostly toothless, sweet kitty. Having worked with so many cats, I very much understand cat psychology and body language, and I can adjust to whatever your cat needs from me. Whether it’s lots of pets, playtime, or someone to fill their food bowl and keep my distance, I will do whatever I can to make your cat happy.
About: I have loved and taken care of dogs since before I can remember. I own a 1 year old German shepherd. So I am well versed on the puppy phase struggles as well as the teenager phase. I love dogs probably more than people and will be a great sitter for your dogs. I am currently a senior at the University of Dakota. Being a senior I have a more relaxed schedule as I have only a few classes left to take. This means I have time to fill and why not spend it doing something I would enjoy. I also want to make a little extra money. In the recent year, I have started working for a dog trainer on the weekends and have learned a lot. I am confident to say I know dog behavior and how dogs work. I love playing with dogs and have many toys of my own I could bring to play with your dogs. I will feed/water and take your dogs for walks. Anything you might ask of me to do for your dog I will do. I will not be doing in my own home Dover night dog services as I have roommates who would not approve.

About: I’ve taken care of a variety of dogs from the time I was 8 to present. I own big dogs and love making them happy. I’ve taken care of my neighbors dogs, friends and family to include feeding, walking, bathing and dropping in on their pets from time to time. I work full-time but have a flexible schedule to drop-In on pets and/or walk your furry loved ones. I enjoy the outdoors and long walks and would love the company of a furry friend. Also, what animal doesn’t love stretching their legs and enjoying the outdoors. That’s my goal, let them get some exercise in this crazy busy world. Currently, I’m in the middle of a move so I would like to stick to walking and drop-in care for dogs. Hoping to have a fenced in back yard when house closes.

“Kelley was such a kind person that put me at ease when taking care of Nala. We got updates throughout the day and came home to a tired, well taken care of puppy. I definitely would recommend Kelley to anyone looking for a quality, caring dog sitter.”
“We love Kasey! I will always pick her to watch our fur baby when we have the chance. Our pup comes back happy & tired. Her pup is the best for ours to socialize with & I trust Kasey to treat our dog like family!”
“We're from out of town, brought our dog with us- last minute decided we wanted to go to the water park and needed someone to watch our dog for us. Mary was great and responded quickly to the request eventho it was late at night. We have never had anyone other than family watch our dog, so this was a great first experience for us!”
About: I have trained and owned animals my whole life. I graduated with a veterinary assistant degree from western Iowa tech in Sioux city Iowa. Animals are my world and I love working and hanging out with them daily. I own a dog and 2 cats and love to cuddle them and train them so they can become and live their best life possible. I can give all my animals baths, exercise, positive reinforcement and love anytime they need it. I have a huge back yard and love to play with them outside too.
About: I have a been a pet owner since I was born practically. From Bunnies, dogs, birds, hamsters, almost everything that can thrive a home! Growing up I always had 1-2 dogs in the house a time, all breeds too from small dogs to larger guard dogs. And of recent I have added farm animals to list of the last 3 years! I work 100% from home! So I am able to play, feed and love the animals all day long and give great exercise to them on the property. I have a black lab who is extra friendly with other dogs! I am able to also kennel your dog during the day when no one is in the home as well.

About: With over a decade of pet care under my belt, I have experience in doggy daycare, pet boarding, dog walking, and in-home pet sitting. I’ve personally owned dogs, cats and reptiles my whole life. Starting as a young teen, I cared for neighbors dogs and cats for up to three months at a time when they were away. In highschool, I worked at a doggy daycare and pet boarding center, gaining experience caring for a large number of animals with a variety of temperaments and needs. I administered medications such as pills and eye ointment, and cared for dogs ranging from puppies to seniors. In addition to dogs, I cared for cats, birds and small mammals. Throughout college, I walked dogs and did in-home pet sitting. My many experiences makes me very comfortable handling a wide variety of pets, from dogs with special needs to spicy cats and more. I am dedicated to giving families peace of mind that their furry friends are well cared for when they are away. I am available early mornings (5-7:30 am), during my lunch break, (11-1 pm) and in the evenings (after 5 pm) and I have open weekend availability. My job is flexible with what time I arrive and leave. Taking care of your home while you’re away is equally as important to me as caring for your pets. I will insure that your home is always in the same condition as you left, whether that means cleaning up bathroom accidents or keeping a tidy litter box. Additionally, with any client where I’m entering their home, I will always check for signs of suspicious activity such as broken windows or open doors. Keeping your fur baby safe means making sure your home is safe.
About: I have loved animals ever since I was a kid. I am very patient, willing to work that a variety of different animals, and greatly enjoy making your pet feel loved. I take animals health very seriously making sure they are well hydrated, feed, exercised, clean, and safe. I am great at communication and flexible to help you with your furry family member. I am very flexible and willing to talk with clients about when and where times work out best. I take care of my cat on a daily basis and understand the responsibilities of pet ownership.

I will always communicate any questions and send updated photos of your pet.
About: I have been around dogs my whole life and have always been hands-on with their care. Feeding, walking, playing with, and being around dogs feels natural and is super enjoyable for me! I am patient and attentive, and enjoy making sure each dog feels loved while their owner is away. I am currently a student-athlete at USD. I will be able to fit pet care into my days between class and training. I often have open times in the morning, mid-day, and evening that would be the perfect time to show your pets some love!
