“My Sadie had another great weekend at Laura & Nathan's! She loves all the cuddles she gets and playing outside off her leash in their spacious fenced back yard!”
“Thank you for your attentive care for my two girls!! This was our first visit and it didn’t take long for the girls to settle in. Great communication and photos.”
“Jamie was absolutely wonderful to work with! She was flexible when we needed to make some changes to our schedule and sent us frequent pictures and updates. I cannot recommend her enough! If I could give more than 5 stars I would!”
“Buddy had a wonderful time playing around in the yard and making friends with the other dogs. Christina was great in keeping me updated with lots of pictures, and I could tell that he was really enjoying his stay. I will definitely be using Christina's services again in the future! Would completely recommend.”
“Nicole was very good with Opie and flexible when I requested an earlier than scheduled pick up time. She communicated well. Opie was a very happy dog when I picked him up.”
“My dog had a great time with Kelli and Shane. He's a border collie, and I know he enjoyed running around in the fields and playing with the kids. It was a good vacation for him.”
“Heather was absolutely wonderful with Reka! She kept me updated with great communication, photos, and regular updates. Reka received so much love and attention from Heather, her kids, and even the neighbors. She had a blast playing with other dogs and was truly treated like a princess. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter—highly recommend!”
About: With almost 7 years of professional experience, you can trust that your pets are in good hands! I grew up on and around farms, so I have experience with pets ranging from dogs and cats, to goats and chickens, to lizards and guinea pigs and more. Now, I have my own little zoo at home, which includes a dog, a cat, two guinea pigs, turtles, and fish. I started my professional experience at the age of 16, when I started working at a doggy daycare. Once I moved to the Duluth area, I continued caring for pets through Rover and similar sites. In the last few months, I have started my own business petsitting and dog walking. In addition, I have done volunteer work through animal shelters and worked closely with dog trainers to expand my knowledge and experience with pets of all kinds. I currently work full time Monday through Friday, 8am-5pm, as well as 9am-3pm Saturdays and 5pm-9pm Friday and Saturday nights. In order to make sure that my pets are getting all the love and attention they need, I will no longer be able to do overnight visits on weekdays. I am more than happy to stay over on weekends and do drop-in visits during the week, though! I love spoiling my pets, and would love to do so with yours as well. I have a lot of experience with complex feeding and medication instructions. I am also very active, so I can exercise your pup in a safe one-on-one environment, bring them to the dog park, provide mental stimulation with puzzles, or cuddle with them if they're a little older- whichever is preferred by you and your pupper.
“Rachel and her family always go above and beyond to not only make sure that my pup is well taken care of, but sends many pictures and updates for our peace of mind! Many walks, hikes, time outside just hanging out with fellow dog friends, and plenty of pets and love were evident! Thank you again!!”
About: Hi, I’m Sierra! I’ve loved animals my entire life and have years of hands on experience caring for dogs, cats, and other pets. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, and I enjoy getting to know each one so they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I treat every pet like they’re my own by providing plenty of attention, affection, exercise, and care. I’ll carefully follow your instructions regarding feeding, medications, potty breaks, walks, and any special needs to ensure your pet stays happy and healthy. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, allowing me to give your pet the time and attention they deserve. I’ll also send regular photo and video updates so you can relax knowing your furry family member is in good hands. My goal is to provide reliable, loving care and make sure both you and your pet have the best experience possible. I look forward to meeting you and your best friend! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, allowing me to provide plenty of attention, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. I work hard to keep each pet on their normal schedule so they feel comfortable and at ease while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. I provide a clean, calm, and loving environment where pets can feel safe and comfortable. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding, medications, exercise, and any special needs. I always keep a close eye on the pets in my care and treat them with the same love, patience, and respect I would give my own. I’ll also send regular photo and video updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
“We cannot imagine leaving our two Whippets with anyone else! Joan takes such good care of them, they don’t want to come home. We love the daily updates with pics and videos that show how much fun they’re having!”
“Scout had a wonderful stay with Marly! She is a senior canine-citizen and needs a few extra potty breaks and TLC and she got exactly what she needed at Marly's house. Thanks, Marly!”
“Zane was great! He kept me updated with notes and pictures while he watched our dog and she was exhausted from all the playing when we picked her up. We will definitely be using Zane again!”
“Shiloh and her family took such great care of Pico and Maggie so we could enjoy the weekend with extended family and friends as we celebrated graduation. Thanks for the kind and excellent care.”
“Lisa took great care of our dog while we were away. She was always prompt with communication and also kept us updated with pics and videos (but not an overwhelming amount of them). Opie returned home worn out from playing with His new furry pals. He also returned mysteriously smelling like a newly-groomed dog....:) We will definitely look to Lisa for future care for our pooch while we are away.”
“Casey watched our special needs husky/lab puppy who uses a quad wheelchair to take walks. He enthusiastically learned how to care for her and was instrumental in improving her ability to use the wheelchair. He also took care of her leg wound, gave her medication, and devised a method to help protect the leg. He took several pictures and videos keeping us informed of her progress. Casey is very caring and knowledgeable about dog behavior and care. We will definitely ask him to watch Gia again.”
“Kate did a great job keeping me updated with pictures and even a video. I loved seeing how worn out my baby girl was at the end of her stay. I'll definitely be reaching out to Kate again!”

“Kate was wonderful. Our cat was well taken care of and our house was too. She kept us in the loop and took a lot of really nice pictures of our cat. We would definitely recommend her!”
“Sabrina and her daughter did such a wonderful job! We were so happy to get daily updates on our cats during the drop in visits, and are very thankful for how attentive and helpful they were. Will definitely book with Sabrina again in the future!”
“Talia is WONDERFUL! She always notifies me when she’s arriving and leaving, shares lots of photos, and it’s very evident my kitten adores her. We are so grateful to have her as a pet sitter!!”
“Courtney was the sweetest individual ever who took such good care of my kitty while he stayed with her. Most people wouldn't be willing to board a cat for near a week and she not only did but she did everything she could to make him comfortable during that time. Will absolutely be booking with her again!!”
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.
“Christina is wonderful with animals and very professional. She took care of my two cats and hamster while we were on vacation. She was reliable and kept me informed about the status of my animals. She communicates very well. I already booked our next vacation with Christina watching our pets. I recommend her 100%!”
“Alexandra has done an amazing jobs in taking care of my 2 cats when I was gone for vacation. She was so patient following all my instructions. She helped me move my two cats to their new place. I’m very grateful to her and highly recommend booking her. I will definitely book again. Thanks so much Alexandra.”

“Julia took such good care of my cats, and they warmed up to her right away. It is so nice to get the regular reports and pictures, didn’t have to worry about them at all and could just enjoy my vacation. I will definitely book Julia again when I leave town.”
“We're so happy we found Allie! She's been so kind with our ups and exceeding our expectations. One of our dogs is timid and she has been super patient with him. You can definitely tell she's an animal person!”
“Anna was a great sitter for my cat ! I was afraid he would be hiding the whole time during her visits but she took the time to win him over, and he accepted some affection. She sent lots of photos , she brought in a package for me, she even made it over during a lot of snow when travel was difficult. She came by twice so I could show her how to open our difficult front door and give her the keys, she came all the way back to drop them off to me when I got home from traveling. She also volunteered to do one last check up on him when I was going to be back later than expected because of flights. Will definitely be booking her again when I travel again.”
About: I've cared for a total of 8 kitties in my lifetime, from the daily feeding and litter scooping to claw trimming to intensive palliative care, and the 12 weeks of injections for Minky's FIP (she is totally healthy now!), and Poppy's twice daily epilepsy meds. I can handle any and all of it! Now I have 3 cats. Moki, my 16 yo boy, Minky, who's 3, and Poppy, the youngest at 2 years old. We all love our play sessions, whether that's with their wand and feather toy, their colorful springs, or exploring the outdoors in their harnesses. I will prioritize play if your kitty is comfortable with it!
About: I've had cats my entire life and have experience administering meds including insulin. I'm good at understanding their weird brain communication styles and know I need to gain their trust.
About: I was never a cat person until I found a kitten on the side of the road and took her home. Now I couldn’t imagine my life without a cat! I currently have 2 cats of my own, Jam is a 1 and a half year old Tuxedo cat and Momo is a 9 year old Flame Point Siamese. I have experience cleaning ears and giving meditation to cats, as my Momo is more on the elderly side and needs a little extra TLC. :) Of course nobody loves cleaning litter boxes, but for a feline friend I gladly do it! :)
About: My goal is to make your time away from your family member as stress free as possible for both of you. I honestly didn't create this account solely for a few extra dollars, although that's a nice bonus. I just love having extra dogs around, and my dog appreciates the company too. Socialization is (should be) a life long process after all. I have a fully fenced yard for potty breaks and we get out for walks daily. A little about me...I'm 37 and I've been in Duluth for 19 years. I moved here to attend college, and loved it so much I never left after graduating. I work from home full time for UnitedHealth Group, which my dog, Copper, is a huge fan of. I adopted him in April of 2023 and I'm looking forward to showing him a lifetime of adventures. I'm well versed in the areas of dog training and behavior, as well how dogs communicate with us and with one another. A little about my pets... Miss Nala, who's pictured in some of my photos, passed in February of 2023 after almost 14 years of being the best bud I could've asked for. I absolutely think Pitties are the best dogs out there, but decided on a breed that would be a little more hardy for our MN weather this time around and that's how Copper came into my life. I'd be happy (perfer) to set up a meet & greet before hand for everyones peace of mind. Just like people, two friendly dogs may not always get along. Of course, there's no fee for this! See my calendar for availability. Please note, although I work from home, weekday availability begins at 3pm unless the pet is okay being crated or trusted unsupervised during my work hours (to be let out for playtime/potty breaks while I am on break). Your pup will be treated like family and will have my undivided attention while in my care. Lots of space for playtime in my fenced backyard and plenty of comfy furniture inside to relax on. :)

“We honestly couldn’t have asked for a better experience with Rachel and her wonderful family! They looked after Jack while we attended a wedding, and from the moment we met them, we knew he was in the best hands. Rachel was incredibly kind, caring, and thoughtful, and her whole family made Jack feel completely at home. It was so reassuring knowing he was being loved and cared for as if he were part of their own family. We could relax and enjoy the wedding knowing he was so happy and comfortable. Jack was so well looked after, and it’s clear Rachel genuinely loves and cares for the dogs she watches. We are beyond grateful for everything she did and would recommend her to absolutely anyone looking for someone trustworthy, loving, and amazing with dogs. Thank you again, Rachel!”
“We had our dog Nala hang out for a few hours while we went on a motorcycle ride. Immediately they were so nice and wanted us to check out their space beforehand and let us know the area Nala would be. They took pictures while we were out and their daughter was excited for Nala to be there. Highly recommend these guys. They love dogs and are very hospitable. Very clean and safe environment for your fur baby.”

“Patty S. took good care of Marvin! Patty was very accommodating with a short notice scheduling and also some last minute changes in pick-up time. We look forward to having Marvin stay with her again!”
“This was our first time using Rover and leaving our slightly spoiled dog with someone he didn’t know. We couldn’t be happier with our experience and would highly recommend Jamie! Our dog has anxiety issues and Jamie sent updates and pictures and I could see he was very comfortable. After we picked him up he was calm and no anxiety! Thank you Jamie sooo much!!”
“My sweet Heidi had such an amazing time with Barbara and Peter! Every morning, Heidi would run right into their arms and ready to play with her new friends. In addition, I am very thankful for how accommodating and flexible they were to my schedule.”
“Nicole is great to work with. She is very good with my dog. She takes him to dog parks and on walks and when he comes home, he is tired!

“Not only were Aneesa and Ethan super flexible with working out pick-up/drop-off times, but Chester also came home SO happy and obviously well taken care of during his stay. Can't wait for the puppies to hang out again!”
“Heather and her family did such an amazing job with Edie. They helped her ease into a new environment and gave her lots of love and affection. Heather sent many updates during the day and in all the pictures Edie looked happy and content. When Edie got home she was exhausted from a day of fun. I would recommend Heather to anyone looking for care for their pup!”
“Casey was able to take Charlie on very short notice. He was very welcoming and greeted us both with friendly demeanor. Sent photos and a video. And welcomed her with cheese to get her to interact with the other pups. I don’t spend a lot of time in Duluth however would recommend him and will use him in the future. Casey - thank you!”
“She did a great job with Lola. We really appreciated the last minute accommodation and she was very flexible with our time. Thank you again. Will definitely use again when in the area.”
“Courtnie is absolutely fantastic! My little guy is usually a bit skittish when going to a new home for day care but he warmed up extremely well with Courtnie and her dogs! She is super accommodating and incredible when it comes to the care of dogs, very highly recommended her! Thank you so much!! ?”
About: Hi there! My name is Savannah (or Sav for short!) and I’ve worked in pet care for 6 years in Minneapolis before moving to Duluth, resulting in completing hundreds of walks and dozens of sittings- and I love what I do! I also am the dog mom of a spunky 11 year old German Shepard mix. I understand the need for detailed and compassionate care, especially in the winter and summer when extra resources like dog boots or extra water may be needed. The pets I’ve had in my care lately range from pit bulls and labs to pugs and even older dogs. I am excited to meet your dog! I spend all day, everyday walking dogs of all ages and breeds. Pet care is my full time job and I love what I do! Many dogs feel most comfortable in their own home so I am happy to provide sittings in your home to care for your pet the way you would! I have experience training and specific requests, like administering medications. I always will treat your pet with the utmost care and respect!

“Christina is wonderful with our 4 month old puppy Dolly. She has been very helpful in the training and socializing processes. She is very kind, patient, courteous and responsible. Christina communicates all needs or issues respectfully. Christina does her best to accommodate any changes to Dolly’s walk schedule. We feel 100% confident that Christina cares for Dolly as if she were one of her own. My husband and I can not say enough good things about Christina. If we could we would definitely give her way more than 5 stars. We would 100% recommend Christina to all of our family and friends.”
“Amber is the best! I'm so happy with how it's going with my pups! My chihuahua-dachshund is impossible to walk but just a couple of weeks of walking with Amber and he's walking without pulling!!”
“Audriana is fantastic! She gives my updates of how my puppy is doing on his walks and sends me pictures. She also gave me over a months notice when she was going to be out of town and not able to walk my little guy. Would HIGHLY recommend Audriana.”
About: Living on a farm, I have a lot of experience interacting with animals of all kinds. Running a farm of any size is not a one person job so my family is a big part of my life. I can’t imagine a better place to live doing something I love. Pet care is an integral part of my daily routine. Whether it is feeding and watering our chickens and cows or grooming our dogs, I work hard to ensure our animals are cared for. I am a stay at home mom so your four legged friends will rarely be left alone. I work hard to follow any instructions owners may give me. Additionally, I make sure all animals in our care have access to food, water, and love. I also like to take a few pictures of what we are up to send them to people so they know their pet is getting loved and cared for.
“Had such a GREAT experience with Sav! She knows exactly what she is doing and was SO adaptable her first time getting to know our dogs quirks. Truly, it means so much as we have a golden retriever who struggles on walks and is anxious! We will absolutely be using her again as our dog walker!”
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.
About: I have experience working at a dog daycare, (Dana’s Dog Spa and Daycare in Hutchinson, MN) where I cared for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities in a fast-paced environment. My responsibilities included supervising playgroups, feeding, cleaning, and making sure each dog was safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I’ve also spent many years caring for the pets of friends and family, providing reliable cat and dog sitting while they were away and regularly walking their dogs. I’ve always looked forward to spending time with them, and I genuinely enjoy caring for animals! I have a very flexible schedule and am available most weekdays, evenings, and weekends as I’m a college student on summer break. I’m happy to work with your schedule whenever possible! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities! I care for each and every pet with the same love and attention I’d give my own. I always take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special needs so they feel comfortable while you’re away. I’ll follow your instructions closely, prioritize safety on every walk and visit, and keep you updated so you can have peace of mind. I’m always happy to answer any questions and help you feel confident that your pet is in caring, reliable hands!
About: I work a doggie daycare/boarding kennel. I love what i do and don't ever plan on going anywhere else. That is why i signed up on here. So i could continue to help people with their fur babies in a time of need. I do it as employment 5 to 6 days a week in the mornings. I work at a doggie daycare/ kennel boarding facility. I bathe do nails teeth and ears also. I would walk dogs, can do drop in visits or afternoon shifts sitting with the animal also. I would love to spend time with your pet and make them smile.
About: Hi! My name is Anna! Since I was five I have always been around dogs. I would dog sit for my grandmother's three corgis, a few coworkers of my mom, even friends and relatives. Having a dog of my own I understand the responsibilities that are entitled. I've had experience with giving animals medicine too, so that isn't a problem for me! I promise I will give your dog my full attention whether it be for food, potty breaks, or even a good ear scratch! If any problems arise I will make sure to contact you with any and all questions I might have! Long walks are my favorite and very therapeutic, so why not give a dog a little exercise in the mean time? I am hardworking, attentive, cautious, able to follow explicit care instructions, reliable, and trustworthy towards any and all dogs and people I come across! I hope I can have the opportunity to work with you and your furry friend! I work early afternoon/evenings four days a week, so if you need someone to hang out with your pal during the day while you're at work, then I'm your gal! I am super attentive to all animals in my household. Potty breaks, exercise, food, I keep up with any and all needs. Im gentle, friendly, respectful of space and chill.
About: I simply adore animals! I will provide loving, playful, patient, high quality care that will leave your fur babies begging for more! I am able to administer medications and general care as specified. I also offer nail/claw trims for dogs and cats for $20. Just check the bathing/grooming box. I prioritize play, so even drop ins will get plenty of entertainment! Supervised puzzle feeds, or playing with favorite toys, or whatever pops up in the moment. Pup-led play is usually the most fun! My schedule is fairly open most of the time, but I am going to be starting trade school to become a barefoot specialist for equines sometime in 2026. I need a flexible work schedule so I can trim my case study horses, and the horses I already trim for a friend. - REGARDING OVERNIGHT STAYS! My rates are for ONE 12 hr overnight visit. If you need me for consecutive nights with drop ins during the day, my rates increase to cover each drop in. Walks, nail trims, daily brushing are also an additional cost. These additional charges will be discounted, not my full rate. Let's discuss it 😃 My kitties and I enjoy a peaceful life out in the country. We're new to it, and it's not our house, so I am not currently offering boarding or doggy daycare. I am incredibly respectful of others' spaces. I follow the 'leave no trace' hiking guideline into clients' homes! I respect privacy and will never invite strangers in or take photos for any other reason than to update you, the owner.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 10, from puppies to the elderly. They’re all adorable! I have experience giving medication such as pills and ear drops. I love all dogs and will clean up a mess they’ve made even if it’s inconvenient. Baths are always a struggle for most dogs, but I think of it as a fun challenge! I’m always putting my all into caring for your pet! I’m currently attending college, so I will take care of your adorable dogs when I’m not at school or at work! I have class on Thursdays, and I work at my internship on Tuesdays and Fridays! I also work my part time job in the evenings Monday-Friday. My more flexible availability would be on Mondays, Wednesdays and weekends! But if you need me to help out on any day of the week we can talk and we can try to work it out! I have always had plenty of animals in the home growing up! I’ve taken care of puppies and older dogs, I love them all! I’m always willing to go the extra mile to make sure they get what they need. You just need to communicate what their needs are and I will do my best! Your dogs comfort and happiness is my top priority always! I have experience with cats as well! I rescued a kitten on the side of the road almost 2 years ago and now I have a love for cats! :) I have a younger cat and an older cat so I have experience with cleaning ears and giving meditation!
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.

Your pup will be treated like family and will have my undivided attention while in my care. Lots of space for playtime in my fenced backyard and plenty of comfy furniture inside to relax on. :)
“Hope to meet you in person soon Emma! Thank you for being dependable and easy to work with, you saved the day and helped Frida enjoy her time at the mountain house. Will definitely call you again.”
About: I grew up around many dogs of various ages and sizes. My mom is a dog groomer and my great aunt is a retired dog groomer and boarder. I have 2 dogs of my own and provide the best care possible. I also have a lot of experience caring for small pets so can provide basic care for them too while checking in on your dog! My free time is always geared towards giving attention and care to my own pets, I’d love to be able to help assist others with providing proper care to their own pet! I am very aware of surrounding situations and will never put your dogs in harms way. I will care for your dogs like I do my own and hold the same level of safety when it comes to walks and playtime. My walks will include “training” if needed to help teach your dog how to safely walk on the leash.
About: I’ve taken care of my brothers pitbull and my mom’s Argentinian dogo on and off for the last six years and I love it! I’ve always loved taking care of animals, in a different life I would have been a vet! I’m new to the are and moved here to be a co manager at the Duluth Buckle. I’m hoping to fill my extra time with taking care of furry family members! I work full time as a manager at the Buckle, but have two days off during the week and usually time before or after a shift to help as well. I can only help animals in the home of their own parents, but can follow instructions and will do anything to help and take care of your pet.

“Buddy had a wonderful time playing around in the yard and making friends with the other dogs. Christina was great in keeping me updated with lots of pictures, and I could tell that he was really enjoying his stay. I will definitely be using Christina's services again in the future! Would completely recommend.”
“Heather was absolutely wonderful with Reka! She kept me updated with great communication, photos, and regular updates. Reka received so much love and attention from Heather, her kids, and even the neighbors. She had a blast playing with other dogs and was truly treated like a princess. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter—highly recommend!”
“Rachel and her family always go above and beyond to not only make sure that my pup is well taken care of, but sends many pictures and updates for our peace of mind! Many walks, hikes, time outside just hanging out with fellow dog friends, and plenty of pets and love were evident! Thank you again!!”
About: Hi, I’m Sierra! I’ve loved animals my entire life and have years of hands on experience caring for dogs, cats, and other pets. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, and I enjoy getting to know each one so they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I treat every pet like they’re my own by providing plenty of attention, affection, exercise, and care. I’ll carefully follow your instructions regarding feeding, medications, potty breaks, walks, and any special needs to ensure your pet stays happy and healthy. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, allowing me to give your pet the time and attention they deserve. I’ll also send regular photo and video updates so you can relax knowing your furry family member is in good hands. My goal is to provide reliable, loving care and make sure both you and your pet have the best experience possible. I look forward to meeting you and your best friend! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, allowing me to provide plenty of attention, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. I work hard to keep each pet on their normal schedule so they feel comfortable and at ease while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. I provide a clean, calm, and loving environment where pets can feel safe and comfortable. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding, medications, exercise, and any special needs. I always keep a close eye on the pets in my care and treat them with the same love, patience, and respect I would give my own. I’ll also send regular photo and video updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
“We cannot imagine leaving our two Whippets with anyone else! Joan takes such good care of them, they don’t want to come home. We love the daily updates with pics and videos that show how much fun they’re having!”
“Zane was great! He kept me updated with notes and pictures while he watched our dog and she was exhausted from all the playing when we picked her up. We will definitely be using Zane again!”
“Shiloh and her family took such great care of Pico and Maggie so we could enjoy the weekend with extended family and friends as we celebrated graduation. Thanks for the kind and excellent care.”
“Lisa took great care of our dog while we were away. She was always prompt with communication and also kept us updated with pics and videos (but not an overwhelming amount of them). Opie returned home worn out from playing with His new furry pals. He also returned mysteriously smelling like a newly-groomed dog....:) We will definitely look to Lisa for future care for our pooch while we are away.”
“Casey watched our special needs husky/lab puppy who uses a quad wheelchair to take walks. He enthusiastically learned how to care for her and was instrumental in improving her ability to use the wheelchair. He also took care of her leg wound, gave her medication, and devised a method to help protect the leg. He took several pictures and videos keeping us informed of her progress. Casey is very caring and knowledgeable about dog behavior and care. We will definitely ask him to watch Gia again.”
“Kate did a great job keeping me updated with pictures and even a video. I loved seeing how worn out my baby girl was at the end of her stay. I'll definitely be reaching out to Kate again!”
About: Call me Kim, I have loved and cared for many animals starting at a young age, while growing up in the country. I have also had pets my whole life including; dogs, cats, rabbits, birds, chickens, turkeys, turtles, pet rats, fish, pigs, cows and horses. Currently I have 2 cats, one is a 14 year old senior who is hard of hearing. He is social and gets along well with everyone. My younger cat, Timba is 4 years old and is the ‘typical’ orange cat, always ready to play, be in everybody’s business and wants to be every dogs best buddy. Currently, I am taking online classes, making my schedule flexible and open to help out other pet parents. I have grown up with a background in caring for farm animals and have experience caring for many types of animals including; horses, cows, turkeys, goats, pigs, snakes, rabbits and chickens. Please feel free to ask me any questions you might have regarding my experience. I really look forward to meeting and spending time with your fur baby(s). Thanks for taking the time to check out my profile! My senior cat is respectful and very friendly being open to any pet guests that come to visit. My younger kitty Timba loves to play, and enjoys lots of attention. I do treat any fur babies in my care as I would *my own*, so we go for rides in the car, walks, trips to the beach, the pet store for a Birthday or special treat, the local dog parks & occasional trips out to the country. I am currently doing online classes with a few afternoon appointments so your fur baby would have my full attention for fun play time, frequent bathroom breaks and leisurely walks.
“We boarded our dog Astro with Kaylee for two weeks in October. She took excellent care of him, and he clearly was fond of Kaylee and David, and felt very comfortable staying with them. Kaylee texted me photos of Astro daily, which made my separation anxiety a little easier to handle! I would highly recommend Kaylee as a caretaker for your pooch.”
“Emily was wonderful throughout the whole experience. She invited us to her home to see how my dog would be before booking the stay. Throughout my dog's stay she sent pictures and updates on how he was doing. She was also very understanding of my flight issues I had and was very flexible. I'd recommend her to everyone.”
