“Abigail was an amazing sitter. We immediately felt comfortable with her from the moment she met our pup. She had great communication and gave our pup all the love. Would highly recommend to anyone with any type of pet, her background gives her great experience and she is a sitter to be trusted.”


“debdatta was absolutely wonderful! I was out of the country for a week and she took care of my small dog and I couldn’t have asked for a better person to do so! debdatta has a very calming and gentle nature and made sure my dog felt comfortable in her home. She even bought my dog some different dog food since I had run out of the food one day. She kept me updated daily and was extremely responsive. Would recommend 10/10! :)”

“Samantha sent great updates and took good care of our fur friends while we were out of town. She took care in our home, as well. We will definitely request her services 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!”

“Stephanie was great! I can tell my pet was well cared for and I also came home to a house that was just as clean (if not cleaner) than when I left it. I will happily use her again!”

“Elizabeth was a wonderful pet and house sitter for us and would heartily recommend her to others. She was great with our elderly cat, who was happy and calm upon our return. She had clear, frequent, and professional communication that helped us enjoy our time away, knowing all was well at home.”

About: Retired but a “young” 61 . Lost my dog this year and can’t have pets where I currently live so I’ve been getting my cat and dog fixes watching family and friends pets ! I’m a new Grandma so expect your pet to be spoiled and get lots of attention - love if they want to sleep with me . I can do overnight, day sitting or drop in at your house . Will meet you prior and check my references- I will do a good job for you and you can relax while away ! I’m retired so my time is my own -7 day a week availability-and I can hang with your pet all day if wanted - will walk and take outside to potty Sadly my dog passed recently- I’ve stayed at my sisters many times with her dogs —one is a senior and one is a puppy - big fenced yard and lots of in and out . They are welcome in my bed - love to snuggle with them
“Autumn is such an amazing dog sitter, I wish I could give her a 10 star rating! She takes such good care of our 2 dogs, so much exercise and love while we are gone. She’s a gift to doggy parents!”

About: I’ve been taking care of neighbors’, friends’, and families’ pets since high school. I have experience in both daily care (including feeding, walking, playing, and bathing) and overnight care. I love all dogs, big or small, and also have more recent experience with cats. I am comfortable with young dogs as well as old dogs, including administering medications. My love for animals makes pet care one of my favorite experiences! I am currently home for the summer from college and have a pretty flexible schedule. Most weekdays I work for a few hours in the evening (usually around 4-8pm) but have a relatively open schedule otherwise for both weekdays and weekends. My daily experience with pets through my own pet ownership and through nannying families with their own pets ensures that I have the experience needed to meet the needs of all pets throughout the day. I can easily work around a pet’s schedule and prioritize the pet’s needs. I also have a car if any transportation is needed.
About: With over 4 years of dog sitting experience for multiple families, and nearly 2 years in pet hospitality, I have extensive experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and varying health conditions! I have experience in safely administering medications to numerous dogs including oral medications as well as eye and ear treatments. I have a very flexible schedule and can accommodate a variety of needs! I am available throughout the week, including weekends, and can provide consistent supervision, exercise, feeding, and administer medication if required. Your pet's safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities. I believe pets are happiest in their familiar environment, so I work hard to maintain their normal schedule while you're away. I carefully follow all care instructions, including feeding, exercise, medication administration (such as oral medications, eye drops, and ear drops), and any special needs. I treat every home with respect and every pet as if they were my own, providing attentive care, and plenty of affection to ensure both you and your pet feel comfortable and confident while you're apart.
About: Growing up on a hobby farm gave me experience with,and love for, a wide range of animals. I have a great deal of experience with cats and dogs, but also a long list of farm and exotic animals. In my circle, I tend to be the person that people call for help or knowledge with their fur babies. I am experienced and comfortable administering oral, topical, inhaled, and injected medications. I am well versed in first aid/wound care and am CPR certified. I own my own business so I am able to be flexible with my hours to accommodate all of my clients and their fur babies needs. Attention to detail and communication is important to me. So when I am caring for a furry family member in your home or out on a walk I am sure to follow all direction given. In addition, I will always provide you with updates and check ins on how your fur baby is doing.
“Aziz has been amazing on every front. When I needed a pet sitter with almost zero notice, he was at my house the next day. He was flexible with timing, always responsive, and kept me up to date. My dogs loved spending time with him and were all over him. He took great care of my house, too. He’s a smart, reliable, and compassionate sitter who I will ABSOLUTELY use again.”
About: I’ve had many animals while growing up. I’ve had 4 dogs, 3 cats, a hamster, a guinea pig, snakes, countless fish, and chickens. I am confident in my abilities to care for any kind of pet. I am able to administer meds, groom, train, etc. I love animals and love working with them! I work part-time as a server, but am very flexible with my schedule outside of that. I’m able to stay late at night and come early mornings if necessary. I am able to stop by during the days and in case your pet needs a friend I can bring my own around! I have a fenced yard as well as invisible fencing. I feed my dogs and cats each day, walk and potty them, and scoop litter. When my older cat was around I administered his meds and helped to keep him clean. Any accidents that happen can be cleaned easily and i love cuddling with the animals!

How fortunate was I to find Teresa. She provided all the TLC for my pups they needed and more. One dog has special medical needs and she handled them perfectly. I could tell from the photos she sent me that my pups were content and responded to her in ways only I would understand. Book Teresa and you will have assurance and peace of mind.
Molly did a wonderful job with our very shy 1 year old Bernese Mountain Dog puppy. She took great care of him and stay in communication with me while we were out of town. The house was in order when we returned as well. Molly was very professional and responsive. I would definitely ask her to watch him again!!

Sophia met our dogs multiple times over the course of two months so we would feel comfortable leaving them for an extended period of time. She did a great job walking our two large dogs and playing with our small one. She sent over videos and photos as well. The dogs were always happy to see her and when we came back we could tell that she really did a great job taking care of them!

Deborah stayed with our almost 14 year old dog for two weeks. She was a great communicator, asked questions when needed, and sent daily photos. She kept a consistent routine including administering medication and two walks a day. What a relief to know that Dandy was well cared for while we were away for so long!

Delanie was a fantastic dog sitter for our puppies! They warmed up to her quickly and got lots of walks, which they love. Delanie was communicative and followed the schedule we left her, which was much appreciated! We’d absolutely welcome Delanie back into our home to watch the pups again!
