House Sitting in Watertown

“Ashley did an exceptional job caring for our three dogs and our home. Her communication was excellent, and she was well-prepared to handle the challenges posed by one of our dogs’ medical issues. The house was left spotless and tidy, and all our dogs seemed to enjoy having her stay with them. Highly recommended!”

“Katherine and her daughter Nora have taken care of our dog several times now and every time is an absolutely great experience. Highly recommend!”

“Karri was great with our elderly dog while we were gone for a week. She stayed in our home and took care of him like he was her own. She went over and above in taking care of Ben. He has ongoing health issues that can change very quickly and she easily adapted to his needs, gave meds and even completed ear cleanings when needed. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter. We will not hesitate to have Karri stay with Ben again.”

“We love Grace! She is always willing to work with us even when it's last minute! Thanks Grace for taking such good care of our pets! We truly appreciate you.”

About: I have had both cats and dogs for as long as I can remember! I have had both through all stages of their lives, puppy/kitten - senior. I also have experience with administering medications. I am a college student who misses my own pets, and I would love to help care for yours so they do not get lonely! I am currently a college student and I do not have another job at the moment. This semester I am in class from 12pm-3pm M/W/F, and 8am-1:30pm on T/Th. Outside of that, I am a student leader so I have meetings on Monday’s from 3:30-5pm and events on some Friday's. However, I make sure to find time on my lunch breaks and before and after class to make sure pups can get outside and get a little love in between the times I have to be away. At my home, I have a fenced in yard for my dog, who is generally very well behaved, but I do not leave him unattended for long. He loves to wrestle and be brushed, so we do that often. He gets food once daily, per vet recommendations. In the past when I have had cats, they loved to cuddle and were pretty lazy. I cleaned out their litter box’s every 1-2 days, and they were grazers so I kept their food and water full daily.

“Ellie stayed to care of our pup when we had to travel out of town for a couple of days. She reached our place on time, and gave us regular updates about our pup and shared pictures. It was our first time leaving our pup overnight with a dog sitter and Ellie did an excellent job taking care of our pup. We highly recommend her as she is very good with dogs and dependable.”

“Gabby was incredible! Our older dog and our skittish dog were both so happy with her. The cat didn’t even scold us when we returned like he usually does. We received regular updates and photos throughout the week and when we got home, the house was neat and tidy. We will absolutely ask Gabby back to housesit and watch our “outlaws” again. We can’t possibly recommend her enough!!”

“Our dogs loved being with Victoria while we were away on a trip! It was our first time having someone watch them in our house, but it went really smoothly and the daily updates provided us with the peace of mind that they were doing well. We would love to have her watch our dogs the next time we are away!”

About: I’ve had a dog and cat my whole life, even in college. When my girls got old enough and could help, we started fostering to help dogs find their ‘furever’ homes and have been fostering over 7 years. Sometimes we even get our fosters back to watch for the weekend while their families enjoy their time away. I currently work from home so they’ll be minimal time alone. I have two older daughters, that love to help care for pets as well. I’m available during the week and weekends. I have a fenced in backyard and two dogs that love to have friends over to play. Your dog will be able to sleep and play just like they would at home.

“Winnie was well taken care of and was a super happy girl when we arrived back home from a vacation!”

About: I love dogs, and more importantly, I understand them. A lifetime of caring for, interacting with and learning about animals has given me the skills to keep dogs safe, healthy, engaged, and of course, happy! I enjoy all types of dogs and all personalities. I have a degree in Veterinary Technology and took additional classes in dog behavior and am comfortable with dogs that are difficult for others, such as dominant or very timid. I feel a special connection with dogs that are unsure and love using my knowledge of them to help them come out of their shell. I have worked with hundreds of dogs in veterinary, rescue, boarding and grooming settings. I have attained a CGC with two dogs and done some agility. But mostly I love just being with dogs, mine and any I come across, walking, playing, snuggling, swimming, and anything that brings that smile to their face and that sparkle to their eye. I am honest, flexible, and will respect your property 100%. I am honored to be trusted by those I work for and am happiest when I hear "I didn't have to worry at all because I knew you were there".

“Autumn was incredible! She had 5 star communication and provided an incredible experience for our dog while we were out of town! Highly recommend and hope to book with her again!”

“My husband and I just moved to the Twin Cities area and we had previously always had friends we could rely on to watch our dog and check on our cat. So this was a new experience for us (mostly me, let’s be honest), but Justin was great and kept me updated while we were gone on how they were both doing. My dog is a silly nervous boy and Justin knew how to get him to warm up. I’m so glad we could find someone we trust with our fur babies!”

About: Love all doggies every shape and size! Grew up with two beautiful west highland terriers who were the best birthday gift in the world for 10 year old me. Been dog sitting/ house sitting for my family and friends for quite some time now and thought I should start doing it more so here I am! I work a few jobs (some part time other seasonal work) super grateful that my jobs are extremely flexible and so fitting in dog care and dog sitting is easy and attainable. I’m very attentive when it comes to understanding and learning owners routines and schedules they have for their furry friends. Feeding times, what the dog likes and dislikes, how many times they need to be let outside etc. I’m always alert and aware if anything goes astray.

About: I have owned dogs all My life and cats for the last 7 years. I have been working as a vet tech for since 2007 and before that worked in a boarding facility. I love animals as much as I love my kids, they are a member of the family and that's how they are treated. I have 2 daughters they are both comfortable and respectful of animals as well. I am comfortable with administering medications if needed. My dogs are kennel trained and enjoy their space but I don't require your pet to be kenneled if it isn't something they are used to. I am flexible and willing to work with people on their needs, being I work at an animal hospital I get the luxury of taking my pets to work and could bring yours as well if they are not used to being left home alone. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! I currently work Monday-Thursday as a vet tech so I have the flexibility of bringing your pet with me to work or having them at my home. I have a fenced in yard and 3 dogs of my own who are used to keeping other Fur friends company. Also access to my fenced in yard is through a closed garage.

“Very responsible and caring. Did an amazing job with my dogs. Highly recomended”

About: I’ve taken care of many different pets growing up, cats, dogs, bunnies, etc. I own a Husky and a Leopard Gecko, so I am also very experienced in animal care of many different kinds. I am also going into wildlife rehabilitation, so a few of my volunteering work skills are very helpful in caring for all kinds of animals ᵕ̈ I am currently working part-time, however shifts at my job are scarce during the summer so I will have tons of free-time to take care of any pets that need attention ᵕ̈ I have one friendly puppy who can keep your animals company if they need to stay here, I am also able to drive to any home to care for your babies in their own comfort.

“Madelaine was a total savior! We needed last minute care for our sweet Great Dane, Phoebe. Madelaine was responsive and super flexible with Phoebe's schedule. Highly recommend!”

“Rowan was awesome taking care of both our dog and home over an extended weekend. She was very responsive and a joy to communicate with from beginning to end. We're so happy to have found her and will absolutely continue call on her for future needs.”

“We couldn't have asked for a more loving, responsible individual for Opie. Emma provided overnight house sitting and care for our boy and our home. We were incredibly grateful to have found her and will definitely ask her again when we need a companion and sitter.”
