“Max and Maggi were very relaxed and comfortable when we returned home which tells me they were treated very well! Mara communicated with us prior to the stay and was prompt to arrive. Thank you!”

“Anna was a phenomenal sitter and took excellent care of my four senior dogs. She was kind and attentive, sending periodic updates while I was away. I will be using her services again in the future, and I highly recommend her to others for house/dog sitting.”

“Alison was a very attentive and communicative sitter when watching my dog George. He was sick at the time and she very appropriately reached out as needed with questions. I wouldn’t hesitate to hire her again!”

“Hannah is great! The pups love her. She even cleans up and puts her sheets in the laundry. We will definitely have her back! Thanks Hannah for taking such good care of our fur babies!”

“Brittany did awesome with my foster pup! She went above and beyond for him. My pup is scared of new people and she came over beforehand to make him feel more comfortable. 10/10 would recommend Brittany for any dog sitting needs.”

About: I've been around dogs my entire life, both big and small! I've helped take care of my family dogs since I was 7, and been working with dogs beyond my family for 2 years. I have experience working with puppies, senior dogs, and dogs with disabilities. Your pup will never be wanting for affection! I'm working full-time during the week, so I am available for house sitting on weekends. I am available for dog walking and play dates during the weekday evenings and weekends. I can provide your fur baby with the bathing, brushing, medicating, exploring, and loving that they need to thrive. I have a small, friendly pup of my own who can play with your dog, and a car that can take them to the dog park if desired. Otherwise, I'm more than happy to provide them every comfort of their own home.
About: I have 5+ years of professional experience walking and caring for pets at a veterinary clinic and 12+ years of experience walking and caring for my dog, Chico. Medications are no problem! My dog is diabetic, so I know how to administer insulin shots if needed. I work full time during the day, but I am available most evenings and weekends if you need me to walk or care for your pet. I walk, feed, medicate, and play with your pets to ensure your furry loved ones remain happy and comfortable in their homes while you are away.
“Nick did an excellent job as always! We can tell our dog was happy to have him watch, and we know Nick went beyond our asks to keep our dog happy and entertained while we were away. We will absolutely book again!”

“Kelle was wonderful with Dany and Sadie — caring, reliable, and attentive. She gave us regular updates, which gave us real peace of mind. We truly appreciated her and would happily work with her again!”


“Lauren took such great care of my dog Katie when I was out of town for almost a week! She provided at least daily communication through updates and pictures. It was my first time leaving Katie with someone outside of my family and for that long and Lauren eased any worries I had. I would definitely trust Lauren to watch Katie again!”

“I can not say how much it meant to be able to have someone come over to take care of our senior dog. We were able to enjoy our daughter's wedding in Cannon Falls without being worried or distracted. Our grumpy old dog was better for Anna then he is for us.If you need a dog sitter, I recommend Anna you will not be disappointed.”

About: Hello! My name is Griffin and I'm 20 years old. I have owned dogs my entire life and I have two living with me along side a cat! I currently work at The Family Fido just outside of Stewartville. During my time there, I have worked with many different breeds and sizes of dogs while supervising group play! Not all of the dogs that stay with us are dog friendly so I have worked with solo dogs too! The Family Fido is a boarding/daycare/rescue facility so as part of my job I take care of feeding and medications. Since I started, we have had 5 litters of puppies that I have helped to raise before they have been adopted out to families. I have learned a lot of training skills and I will be attending dog conferences in the future to build my experience even more! Working at a boarding and rescue facility I work with dogs daily and for hours at a time. I own two dogs as well that I work with around the house daily! I am able to do walks, feeding, bathing, nail trims, play, and continue any training that your dog may currently be working on! I am also open to working with anxious or less confident dogs as well as handling more than one dog at a time!
About: I'm a life-long pet owner, and current happy pet parent to two senior cats. I've helped others with pet care in casual and professional settings, including house sitting, walking, medication administration, and cleaning! I love animals of all kinds and ages, and would love to meet yours! My job leaves me available Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays to help take care of your pets during those busy weekends or house sit while you're away! I have a protective nature, and this will apply to your pets and home. I will respect your desires for your home and pet, including routines and security.
About: With over 20 years of hands-on pet care experience, I’ve had the joy of working with dogs at every life stage—from the playful chaos of puppy training to the tender, attentive care our senior pups need. In my home, every pet is family. Whether it’s trusted neighborhood walks, cozy overnight stays, or just some much-needed belly rubs, I pour my heart and soul into making sure your pet feels safe, loved, and genuinely happy. I have extensive experience working with anxious dogs and understand the patience, calm energy, and trust it takes to help them feel at ease. I’m also fully comfortable administering medications—whether oral, topical, or injections—so your pet’s health routines are always safely maintained. I know how deeply our animals can comfort and connect with us—especially when we need them most. That’s why I care for every dog as if they were my own. Tail wags, happy hearts, and becoming your pet’s new best friend—that’s what I’m here for. Pet care fits beautifully into my life right now. I’m a 32-year-old single travel nurse currently between assignments, using this summer as a season of pause and purpose while I navigate my next adventure into entrepreneurship. With a flexible schedule and a heart deeply rooted at home, I’m able to be fully present for the animals in my care—because that’s exactly where I want to be. My entire world revolves around my sweet 12-year-old yellow lab, Missy. She’s my heart dog, my daily joy, and the reason I’ve come to cherish slow mornings, long walks, and quiet snuggles on the couch. Being home with her as much as I can is what matters most to me these days—and extending that same love and attention to your pet is something I don’t take lightly. Whether your pup needs a calm, reassuring presence or a new best friend for playtime and companionship, I’m here to show up with open arms (and probably a pocket full of treats). Whether your pet is staying with me or I’m caring for them in your home, their comfort, safety, and happiness are my top priorities. In my home, pets are treated like part of the family—free to roam, curl up on the furniture, and enjoy all the belly rubs they can handle. We go on daily walks through the neighborhood, explore local trails, and make time for fun at nearby dog parks if they love to run and play. If I’m coming to your home, I’m happy to stick to your pet’s routine and respect any specific instructions you have—whether that’s feeding schedules, medication, calming routines, or even helping with small errands or tasks while you’re away. I aim to create a calm, trusted environment wherever I am, so your pet feels safe, seen, and loved.
About: I have cared for many dogs over the years. I love taking our Mokes to meet other dogs and exercise areas to meet new pups! I am also comfortable administering medications, and have been a nurse for many years. I love taking our dog everywhere I go and your dog would be treated, just like my own! Throwing a ball and long walks are what every dog loves, so let me help you with your busy schedule! I’m currently working full time during the day, most weekdays. I am available evenings, on the weekends and most all holidays! I can be very flexible with last minute needs. I have one very friendly chocolate lab, that loves to have new playmates! I can also easily crate your pup, if that’s what you prefer. We love to take walks to the nearby park and play fetch. I also like to watch animals in their own environment if that is where they are most comfortable!
