About: I grew up with dogs and cats of all ages, and I'm familiar with giving meds (pills, insulin, etc), going on walks, and lots of cuddles! I am a part time nanny, but I have full availability Thursday-Sunday most weeks! My fiancé and I are also full-time cat parents to our boys Mike and Chicken Nugget. I have two kitties who want to be your pet's friend! I love to help out with cleaning and organizing when possible, and I will send you lots of pictures of your babies!

About: I've always been a pet lover. Did pet sitting as a pre-teen and teenager. I had a soul cat for 15 years and a soul dog for 13 years. I have 2 grand-pups who I often dog sit or just take for a day adventure. I've had guinea pigs, hampsters, fish, you name it. I pass you and your animal on the street don't be offended by me going straight to them first! Animals (all animals) seem to love me back too which I LOVE! I'm currently not working or occasionally working remote contract jobs so I have plenty of time to spend spoiling your furr baby! And spoil them I will!!!! I have a condo in Minneapolis near the Sculpture Garden and Loring park. I am on the first floor with a patio and yard so plenty of space to do their business or to take a great walk. My building is small and very pet friendly. I'm also comfortable traveling out to your home since I'm central to the area.

“Darwin was excellent - consistent, thorough, highly communicative, and respectful. From the outset, they came prepared with treats, poop bags, and care questions, which made me feel that my cat was in good hands. Throughout the week, they carefully adhered to my cat's routine, including the daily administering of medication, and followed up with thorough care cards/reports. They even went above-and-beyond to scrub my cat's litter scoop. Most importantly, they were very patient and gentle in building trust with my apprehensive kitty, who warmed up to pets and cuddles within a matter of days. I came home to a content cat and a clean home. I would absolutely recommend Darwin to any pet parent!”

About: With over 8 years of experience in animal care, I’ve had the pleasure of working with a wide variety of pets—including dogs, cats, rats, and even lizards! I’m confident handling pets of all ages, from playful puppies to senior companions who need a bit of extra TLC. I also have experience administering medications like pills, topical creams, and pet inhalers. I’m always happy to learn your pet’s unique routine and needs so they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I’m a student at the University of Minnesota and love spending my free time caring for animals. While my weekday schedule is limited due to classes and work, I’m fully available on Fridays and weekends and would be happy to dedicate that time to pet care. I look forward to meeting new pets and giving them the attention they deserve! Since I care for pets in their own homes, I always try to make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you're away. I stick to their usual routine—whether that means walks, meals, playtime, or meds—whatever they need to feel at ease. I know how important it is to have someone you trust in your home, so I’m always respectful of your space and do my best to leave things just as I found them (or better!). I’ll also send plenty of photo updates so you can see how your pet is doing and feel reassured while you're away. I treat every pet like they’re my own and try to make the time you're gone as stress-free as possible for both of you.

“Tanya was awesome! She came to meet us before our scheduled drop in to make sure it was a good fit and she had all the details to take care of our dog. The visits were great- lots of photos and Stevie was very happy when I came home. I will definitely book her again next time we need a drop in.”

“Clara took excellent care of my kitties while I was away! Great communication and response time. I would recommend Clara for any of your pet sitting needs!”

“Ryan always takes the best care of our cat when we are out of town. She is very high energy and Ryan's visits are always full of play and treats so we know she will be happy while we're gone. Thanks, Ryan!”

Brooke L.

“Abigail was wonderful with my boys, and very communicative each time she dropped in to care for them. It was a holiday week so I was very happy to have gotten her booked.”

Lisa R.

“We've been working with Andy a few times now and appreciate the updates she shares with us on how the cats are doing. Her visits have resulted in us getting some great pictures that made us smile.”

Charissa & Benjamin T.

“Andrew came through with almost no notice and showed up promptly—total lifesaver. He was kind, calm, and instantly won over Princess Leia 🐾 (she says he’s welcome back anytime to play). Highly recommend!”

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life: dogs, cats, hamsters, snakes, fish, turtles, you name it. I also work from home so your pet can get steady company and attention during the day, not just a quick in-and-out visit. Happy to water your plants during drop-ins too, so everything’s thriving when you get back. Friends, family, and neighbors have relied on me for years to feed, check in on, and snuggle their pets when they’re away, and I take that trust seriously. When a friend’s cat needed an emergency vet visit while they were overseas, I was there to handle it and keep them updated every step of the way. I also take direction well so if you’re working on training with your dog, I’ll follow your routine closely to keep things consistent while you’re away. I’m currently working from home so I am flexible with daytime walks and visits! I’m available for walks and drop-in visits, usually between 11am and 6pm I treat others space with the same respect I’d want mine to be treated with: I’m careful with entry access and making sure doors and gates are secure before I leave. I always double check food, water, and litter areas. If anything comes up, I stay calm, act quickly, and keep you informed the whole time.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a kid, frequently being asked to watch the neighbors pets. I love going for walks and am happy to go fast for energetic dogs, slow for seniors, or whatever pace the dog wants to go! I have my own 10 year old dog who I care for always. I currently work full time so I am available to walk dogs before or after regular working hours. I have my own dog so I understand the importance of getting walks in daily! I cannot take dogs into my home, but I am used to caring for a dog so I understand essentials of care that they need.

“Jessica was fabulous! I can't say enough about how prompt, communicative, and accommodating she was with our cat. She went above and beyond to ensure everything was just right, and her updates gave us such peace of mind while we were away. I’m incredibly thankful for her care and will absolutely be using her again without hesitation!”

“Larissa is caring and gentle with my dogs. She has exceptional communication. She handled a 8 week puppy and a 2 year old high energy GSD all within one visit and did an amazing job! I have great amount of trust in her, 10/10 recommend!”

Hailey L.

“Wonderful!! Thank you so much Juliana! You gave our puppies a much needed break and on top of it, you came with such short notice on Thanksgiving Day! You’re awesome!! Mike and Claudia Wondra”

Claudia W.

“The dogs are always so happy to see Brooke when she checks in! She keeps up updated on how they did and we come home to happy and relaxed pets.”

Sara N.

“Shykala did a wonderful job taking care of my cat while I was out of town. She really took the time to bond with him and she provided detailed updates, including lots of photos. I'll definitely book with Shykala again in the future!”
