“Paige was a wonderful sitter! She was so kind and communicative, leaving us great updates and pictures from her visits. We didn’t worry about our boys at all! Would definitely recommend Paige😺”

“This was our second booking with Patricia, and she’s just incredible. This request came together on relatively short notice, and she responded quickly, even late at night, which we really appreciated. Even for a brief one-day booking, she was thoughtful, conscientious, and genuinely engaged with our cats. Her updates were detailed, funny, and reassuring, with lots of great photos. We feel very lucky to have found her and so lucky she’s nearby..”


About: Hi! My name is Kendall, and I am a dependable animal lover who understands that pets are family. Whether you need a dog walker, drop-in visits, or pet sitting, I am committed to providing attentive, compassionate care tailored to your pet’s unique needs and personality. My services include: * Dog walking * Drop-in visits * Pet sitting * Feeding and fresh water * Playtime and enrichment * Basic medication administration (if needed) * Frequent photo and text updates Pet care fits well into my daily and weekly routine because I am organized, reliable, and intentional about managing my time. While I do work a full-time job, I carefully schedule pet care responsibilities around my work hours to ensure that every pet receives the attention, exercise, and care they deserve. Before and after work, I am available for walks, feedings, drop-in visits, and quality one-on-one time with pets. On my days off and weekends, I have additional flexibility to accommodate longer visits, pet sitting needs, and extra playtime. At this time, I am not able to provide boarding services in my home. However, I am happy to offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and house sitting in your pet’s familiar environment, where they can remain comfortable and maintain their normal routine.
About: I have cared for animals since I was 10. Neighbors, friends and family have asked me to petsit, walk, bath and help care for their animals. I can care for puppies/kittens to seniors and everyone in-between. I rely on positive reinforcement for training. I can administer medications, trim nails and other care required. I have worked as a Vet Tech and currently I am in school to become a certified Vet Tech. I am currently in school with mostly online classes so I can seamlessly accommodate your pets care. I will send daily updates and/or photos if requested. I care for your pets from the comfort of your home giving you piece of mind while traveling while your pet will be less stressed.
“Sophia did a fantastic job with my cat, Jigs. She arrived, sent updates with photos, and kept me informed about how he was doing. I've been searching for a trustworthy person to take care of my pet when I travel, and I found an ideal sitter. I highly recommend her for your four-legged friends.”

“Leah was absolutely awesome with my cats! She shared pictures every day, and I could tell how well they were adjusting to having her come in. She fed them, changed their water, scooped litter - everything that needed to be done (even cleaning up after them when they opened up cupboards and pulled out food to eat!). I will definitely be using her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter!”

About: I'm a dog lover who relishes time bonding with pets. I have two of my own who some (my husband!) think I over indulge with attention. I'm responsible and reliable. I'm self employed and work from home so have complete flexibility in dates and times available. I prefer to avoid late nights, but can be flexible if needed. I'm available to do any of the basic in-home care, including feeding, walking, playing. I'm happy to crate if needed, or any other requirements including administering medicine.
“Elizabeth is great! She’s so friendly and was excellent with our 5 month old puppy. She’s prompt, respectful, and very dedicated to what she does. Highly recommend her for your next Rover.”

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.
“Courtney was a wonderful caregiver for Buddy while we were out of town for a long weekend. Buddy had clearly been well looked after. Calm, mellow and happy when we returned! We look forward to having Courtney look after Buddy again.”

About: Grew up with large dogs 0-22 - worked professionally at doggy day car and boarding - worked rescuing animals - comfortable with large breeds - cat experience - reptile experience I work a minimal schedule at my home office, leaving my schedule open and flexible Your pet is able to have my full attention 🐕🦺 In a client’s home, I stick closely to their pet’s routine—feeding, walks, cleaning up, and making sure they’re comfortable. I really enjoy spending time playing with pets and making sure they get plenty of exercise and attention. I also keep things tidy and send updates so owners know their pet is doing well.
About: I've had animals in my life for as long as I can remember. (Dogs, cats, parakeets, etc) For the past several years I've been caring for dogs in my spare time and remembered how much I love it. Because of some family responsibilities I cannot own another pet at the moment, but taking care of them is the next best thing. I'm currently taking a mid-life career break after living in Europe for several years. I'm very lucky that I have a flexible schedule to care for dogs. I have an unfenced yard in a private and quiet neighborhood in Wayzata. I've also done in-home pet sitting in the area and am perfectly comfortable doing that as well.
“Hayley went above and beyond for our very new puppy when I had a mandatory work obligation. Hayley was excellent in her communication, met our puppy before she watched her, and even sent me tons of pictures and videos of her!!”


About: I began dog sitting and in a few years I got my own beautiful doberman, Brooklyn. I raised Brooklyn since she was a puppy and did all of her training and care myself. Im am home all day and will be able to spend lots of time with your loved one. There is a great walking path near my home that I can take your dog on. I don't currently have any pets. Your Dog will get all my attention. There will be opportunity to go outside every few hours. Dogs are allowed in the bed at night, too.
“Carrie was great. She changed out the battery on the garage door opener when it didn't work on her second visit. And she was clearly worried when she couldn't find our super old cat during a couple of her visits. He was fin. We'll be booking her next time we travel.”

About: To dogs, I am Hugh Hefner. I work from home, so I'm around most of the time for the dog/s. Webcam available upon request. About this sitter: I work in technical support and do video editing. I am able to do both dog care and tech support because most of my support is remote. Why I love dog sitting: My folks told me that I loved dogs since I was a baby. I'm fearless of them then and now, and that helps one love dogs. I was always the one, when visiting friends and family with dogs, that just went right up to the dog and let it do what it wanted. I had cats growing up and in young adulthood, because they were less work. Boy was I missing out. As a dog owner and sitter, I'm very indulgent and I am uniquely skilled at getting dogs to relax and get along with each other. About my yard I have a spacious fenced backyard. 3000 sq fenced in area. It's not the type of fence that'll keep a determined beagle from escaping underneath, but I keep an eye on the dogs I care for when they're outside. Although the terrain is kind of blah, there are lots of smells, because there's a woods with a marsh just beyond the edge of the fence. My experience administering medication I am very comfortable administering meds, even shots. I am the only one in my family that can 'pill' a cat.

Sophia is great and we had a wonderful experience! Our dog Peep is sweet but has her quirks so finding the right person was important. Sophia is patient, attentive, and understood our pup. Communication was excellent throughout the stay and we loved receiving the updates and pictures. It was obvious she was well cared for and loved! Will absolutely book with her again 🐶☺️
