“Rhonda was very nice and responsive!”


“Katie's messages and updates I enjoyed reading every day. Always punctual and extremely polite. Our dog had the best week with her and highly recommend her for any service.”


“Cecilia was absolutely great! She communicated well and asked about the dogs habits and needs before she went to visit so she knew about any special needs. She also sent a ton of pictures which was very much appreciated. I live that she spent so much time with our pets and made sure they weren't lonely or bored.”


“Kaycee was very responsive and prompt. It was a relief to know that my diabetic cat received his insulin shots on time while we were away. I would hire Kaycee again!”


“Kaleb did a great job giving me updates and sending pictures of my dogs when we were away. No issues, would recommend!”


About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and truly love caring for them. I grew up with a variety of pets including cats, dogs, chickens, ducks, and bunnies, which gave me a deep appreciation for animals of all kinds. Over the years, I’ve gained hands-on experience providing pet care, including overnight stays, administering medications, and keeping pets comfortable and happy in their home environment. I always focus on maintaining each pet’s normal routine—whether that’s mealtime schedules, daily walks, playtime, or a bit of training and structure. I’m also experienced in caring for senior pets and can support their specific needs with patience and care. My goal is to treat every pet like family and give you peace of mind while you're away. I can also send you daily updates/photos of your fur babies so you know they are being well taken care of! I have both a dog and cat that I take care of every day. My dog is a one year old energetic lab/springer mix and I have a one year old orange kitty. I love getting outside and having playtime or going on walks with my dog and playing with my cat. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or visiting yours, their safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I create a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment, following any specific instructions you provide—like feeding schedules, medications, or routines. When pets stay with me, my home is set up to be a safe and welcoming space where they can relax and feel at ease. During drop-in visits, I’m respectful of your home and make sure to keep everything just as I found it. In all cases, I take the time to build trust and move at each pet’s pace to ensure they feel secure and loved. My goal is to make your time away as stress-free as possible—for both you and your pets.

About: I am Annie! 29 years old and currently working part time at mayo while I wait to get into nursing school! I have a 4 year old dog, she is a spayed female English springer and field spaniel mix! About 35 pounds and she goes everywhere with me, she is friendly with dogs, cats, humans and kids! Before I decided to start the nursing program I was a vet tech for 8 years and pride in my experience of caring for animals. I have delt with ill animals, medications/injections, non ambulatory, incontinent, aggression and more. I have done dog and house sitting for about 10 years, it started with friends and family and continued to grow. I am easy going, active and very independent. Not married and no kids so I have a lot of free time! I’d love to help with a short stay, long stay or drop in/walk! 🐶🐱 Pet care is part of my daily schedule, I take pride in it and love the companionship. If I didn’t have my animals, I’d be lost. Safety first. I will always go above and beyond for your pets, as if they were my own! Our pets are apart of our family.

About: I provide reliable, loving care tailored to each pet’s needs. I’m experienced with puppies, senior dogs, and those with special diets or medications. I'm also great with shy or anxious pets and enjoy building trust with them. Caring after pets fits perfectly with my usual schedule. I'm free on weeknights and completely available from Friday through the weekend, making weekend getaways easy to plan! When I care for pets in their own home, I make sure to follow their normal routine so they feel safe and comfortable. I give them plenty of attention, playtime, and love, just like you would. I also keep everything clean and make sure they’re well-fed, exercised, and happy while you're away.

“We hired Maya to give our dogs a potty break while my husband and I were out for the day, and she was absolutely wonderful! It gave us such peace of mind knowing our pups weren’t stuck inside all day. Maya was prompt, reliable, and kind. Highly recommend her if you’re looking for someone trustworthy and caring with your pets.”


“Emma is absolutely wonderful with my dogs and they loved her. She communicated with us as needed and to provide updates and even sent pictures. I felt so comfortable leaving my dogs in her care. 10/10 recommend!”


“Our first visit together went very well. Emily and Gunnar will become very good friends I’m sure. We discussed his diet, his nuances and habits. Nothing Emily won’t be able to handle!”


“Alyssa was so great with communication and sending us photos and documentation of her visits with our dog! We are super grateful for her care and will absolutely be booking her again in the future”


About: Hi, my name is Megan. I have been volunteering at my local Humane Society, for over 2 years, so I’ve had lots of experience with so many different breeds of dogs! I enjoy all types of animals. Potty breaks I know are important along with tons of play time. I am able to learn/ adapt to your pets needs! All animals are wonderful in my eyes! Lots of pets and scratches, and belly rubs also included! I personally would love to be able to watch your pets. It’s my dream job I’d say! I’m very laidback, and have a calm personality . Also I’ll treat your pet as I would my very own. I work part time! So most days I am available to walk or watch your animals! Just message me to talk more about how I can care for your animal(s)! I would do anything for my animals. There is a fenced in big back yard! My 2 dogs love it. I keep my two dogs as healthy as possible! I love them like family.

“Jennifer is a wonderful sitter who took our dog for a walk after feeding him. She is highly responsible and caring and I plan to have her help out often. Thanks so much Jennifer!”


About: Growing up, we always had animals in the house! I enjoy being around them, & giving them back the love & care they so selfishly show to us. I would LOVE to take care of yours while you’re away :) I work a full time job, but I am off most Tuesday afternoons, Fridays, and weekends. M-Th is usually busy for me, but beyond that I am open (with timely notice). I am more than willing to visit your house to take care of your pet and their needs! Whether that means playing with them indoors, or outdoors (no matter the conditions) I would be happy to. I currently do not offer pet sitting overnight in my household / yours, just due to my family’s current schedule.

“Couldn’t recommend Paige highly enough. She did a great communicating with us and sending pics. This was especially appreciated when our pup got into a little trouble.”


About: I’ve been dog sitting for family and friends for 3+ years. Growing up with dogs, I’ve always been big into play dates, walks, and giving them lots of love. I’m big into walking/running and would be more than happy to have your dog tag along if you’d like! I do work full time, typically between the hours of 7-4, but my schedule can vary from day-to-day. With my dogs in the past, I’ve always made time to accompany, exercise, and entertain them because they deserve it. I will always make time pets of any kind. Pets with me will not only be in good hands, they will be cared for, loved, and exercised like all great dogs deserve. With me previously having dogs who were very full of energy, I enjoy doing all of this stuff more than anything. I can hardly look at a dog without petting it!

“DeeDee was fantastic in every way. I didn't have to stress about the cares my cat received while away. Communication was great. We met up beforehand to exchange keys and to introduce one another. All worked out great and I couldn't be happier. Would definitely recommend!”


About: I have had dogs and cats all my life and love taking care of them. I work full time but my job allows for me to come home for breaks. I am on 2 week breaks and three to four month breaks through the year! Looking to fill my time as pets are my furkids! I work full time but it allows me to come home during my breaks to let pets out! Looking to care for more pets! ❤️❤️ I do not have a fenced yard but we do 3-4 daily walks a day. We go to dogs parks and hike as much as we can.
