Dog Sitting White Bear Lake

About: I had a few dogs growing up (a cairn terrior and a yellow lab) and have been dog sitting for the last 6 years off and on from anywhere from a few hours up to 3 months. I work from home Mondays and Thursdays and have a typical 8-430 schedule. My significant other, Jake, has a flexible schedule as well for drop off/pick up times. While working from home I am available to take doggos on walks/runs and play! For days that I am in the office, I am able to run home on lunch for potty breaks if the doggo needs! I have a house with a large yard. While it is not fenced in, there is plenty of room to run and play on our 30 ft cable. I have a 12 year old son who loves to play with and love on doggies. I live near a lake and a park with a swimming beach if your doggo likes swimming! (I am more than happy to gives baths as well) I will also take lots of photos and have open communication so that owners can know their furbabies are having fun and in good hands!

“Rachel is our go to for a reason! She is the best of the best and is so easy going and makes us being away from our dogs easy and worry free!”

About: I've shared my life with animals for years, and both of my pets came to me needing a second chance. Andy, my cat, was a stray I took in as a graduate student. He started out wary and skittish, and learning to earn his trust taught me patience and how to read the quiet signals cats give when they're stressed, content, or not feeling well. Stevie, our dog, is a rescue, and helping her settle into a new home showed me how much consistency, gentle routines, and a calm presence matter to a pet adjusting to change. I was raised by a single mom who showed me what steady, attentive care looks like, and I bring that same nurturing energy to every pet I look after. Whether your cat needs a quiet drop-in or your dog needs a good walk, I'll follow your routines closely, keep you updated, and make sure your pet feels safe and loved while you're away. I'm currently working part-time, so my schedule is very flexible! I am happy to work around your schedule and accommodate as best as I can! In my home, pets get a calm, pet-friendly space and plenty of attention. In your home, I stick as closely as possible to your pet's normal routine: the same feeding times, portions, walk schedule, and bedtime habits. I'll make sure food and water are fresh, litter boxes are scooped, any medications are given exactly as directed, and doors and windows are secured before I leave. For dogs, that means walks, potty breaks, and playtime; for cats, it means quiet company, play, and a close eye on appetite and litter habits, since those are often the first signs something's off. Either way, I'll send photos and updates after every visit so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing. If anything seems unusual, I'll contact you right away and won't hesitate to get vet care if it's needed.

About: Hi, my name is Mark. I love meeting people's pets of all kinds. I have been caring for animals since I was a child. I also have a master's degree in behavioral science. My combination of lived experience and knowledge of behavioral science uniquely equips me to care for your animals in a kind and gentle manner, while still being responsible and reliable. These skills prepare me to help relax and de-escalate with anxious animals. I have a job which is flexible with my schedule, including working from home and choosing my own hours, which allows me more time with pets! I have a back yard with a fence that my senior dog can play in, as well as many parks nearby my home in Roseville.

About: Loving animals is at the heart of why pet sitting is such a fulfilling experience. Dogs, in particular, have an incredible capacity for unconditional love and loyalty. When you open your heart to care for them, you're not just providing a service; you're forming a bond built on trust and affection. Every wagging tail, wet nose nudge, and happy bark is a reminder of the pure joy that animals bring into our lives. I would love to take care of your Pet. PET sitting allows you to immerse yourself in this love, creating unforgettable moments and strengthening your appreciation for the wonderful connection we share with our furry friends. I’ve had Many Experiences with animals. As far as Young to growing up. I am working part time so I have plenty time for extra activities! I am free as a bird to enjoy time spending with your dog However I don’t have a fence yard.. but I will keep them on Leash all times! We could go on walks or just about anything! I am always able to run out for potty breaks!

“Chelsea is awesome! Very caring with our wild puppy. She is super attentive and noticed small and big changes- we had a couple of concerning days/issues and was super quick to notify us and wait for our responses. Definitely recommend!”

About: ✨️🐶 Please continue to read my profile (including availability and pricing sections) before requesting a meet & greet I have always loved and cared about the welfare of animals ever since I can remember, and even had several different pets of my own growing up that I cared for, including a couple of dogs (one of which lived to be 17 years old!). I have past experience with volunteering at organisations such as the SPCA (providing care for cats, dogs, and rabbits) and caring for cats at AniMall Cat Clinic. I have helped several close ones and neighbours thoroughout the years with pet care needs for their dogs and cats, which included: feeding, walking, providing transportation to veterinary appointments, and spending quality time with the pets, just giving them affection or playing games such as fetch/tug of war. I have experience with caring for breeds that are reactive to other dogs (but still love the company of humans), and with breeds that are often subject to housing or insurance restrictions, some of which have included: Pit Bulls, German Shepherds, Belgian Malinois, Huskies, Dobermans, Staffordshire Terriers, and American Bullies. I focus on understanding each dog's individual temperament, communication style, and needs. I am also experienced in administering medication to both dogs and cats in oral, injectable, and topical forms. 🐾 I require a meet and greet with all new/first time clients before officially booking a house sitting. Please know that a stay is considered confirmed only after the meet and greet is completed, the booking has been mutually agreed upon, and has been officially booked through Rover. For longer stays (especially longer than 1 week), I would recommend you to reach out once you've reviewed my profile and pricing details, and you have fully decided that in-home care through Rover is the option you'd like to pursue. 🐾 Please also note that I do work a hybrid schedule M-F full time, excluding major holidays. For house sits that fall on weekdays, on the days that I am required to go into office (which I communicate with pet parents), my standard is to provide care in mornings before work, evenings after work, and of course, stay overnight in the home. I am not able to provide midday breaks due to my schedule and nature of my work. For walks and drop ins in particular, I would be a great choice for pet parents that need care in evenings, nights, and weekends. I will listen to/observe your pet's body language and demeanour before approaching, and will always interact with them gently and kindly. On walks and out in the yard, I always use a leash or harness to keep the pet safe. Furthermore, I always strive to keep an eye out for any potential hazards to pets while they are in my care, whether that is something that spilled on the floor, or an unfamiliar object in the yard, and will always act swiftly to remove the hazard so your pet will be out of harm's way. I believe good pet care includes planning for the unexpected, so I like to establish emergency contacts, veterinary/animal hospital information, and contingency plans with every client before a stay (and preferably have these included in written directions too).

About: I grew up with a lot of pets. Dogs, cats, fish, birds, and for the last 3 years I've been doing pet care along with child care for a well respected small company in Northern MN. I love working with animals and I'm very good at taking care of them, whether that's short term, long term, or just for a day. I'm currently not working outside of pet sitting, and I try to be very active so daily walks are a must have along with trips to the park and indoor play time. I keep a consistent sleep schedule so I can easily cater to the schedule of your animals. I live in a townhouse community near a lake with a walking trail and a large open field perfect for longer walks with the pups! When I'm in a clients home, I will communicate with you first to learn if you have a schedule for the pets you'd like me to follow. Then I will make sure their needs are met and have plenty of play time in and outside so they get their exercise in between naps and cuddles.

About: I love animals, I'm the type of person who gets distracted by the dog on the street and I want to go to your house if you have a cat. For those of you from the 90's, if I could be like Ace Ventura the pet detective and fill my whole home and life with animals, I would. Clearly this isn’t the 90's and my apartment wouldn’t be able to house all the animals happily and comfortably of my dreams, so there comes rover, my opportunity to spend the time I want with all the animals of my dreams. Jokes aside , I have a background in social services and caring for others is in my nature, I've decided to go back to school in my mid 30's. I’m focusing on school so I’m no longer working my full time job, so I have plenty of time on my hands to provide lots of love and care to your loved ones. I grew up with 4 cats and as adult I have always had cats. I haven’t had the opportunity to have dogs of my own due to living in apartments or the preferences of my very particular feline friends, but I absolutely adore dogs and all animals. I grew up with family members and friends with dogs and I often will volunteer to pick my grandparents dog up for walks, just because. I have ample experience with temperamental cats, see my profile for paisley, my beauty queen of a kitty. I also have a lot of experience with medical needs and chronic illnesses for kitties, per my two kitties at home, see Jinx as well. I also have experience administering medications etc to other peoples pets as well. Friends and family ask me to watch their pets because they know how attentive and loving I am with animals. Animals are my passion. Fun Fact:I’m known to help rescue homeless kitties or wild life, keep dog treats and cat food in my trunk for kitties in need or dogs who need a snack <3. I love small critters to large live stock. You could say I’m a fan of the animal kingdom, no doubt. My availability is quite flexible at this time, per the fact that I'm going back to school ad not working full time. I’m happy to work with pet owners to accommodate their scheduling needs, as I have a lot of open time in in my schedule. I'm currently not taking sleep overs but potentially would be open to after a relationship is established and it’s a right fit for both parties. but I'm happy to check on your pet before bed and in the morning. While at your home, I'm a guest. I will respect your home via your guidance, directions and handle your home and animal loved ones with attentive care and discretion.

“Madeline was great! I had a last minute need for a drop in visit and Madeline was very quick at responding and accommodating. My cat does not like other people but he came out of hiding when Madeline visited which speaks volumes!”

“Thank you so much Ned for your service in taking care of LucyLulu and London on Election day so I could be an Election Judge for 15 hours and not have to worry about the dogs with you coming three times. I appreciate your report stating they were both good. Take care and thanks again. Tip processed.”

About: I have owned a dog since I was 3 years old and never looked back. I am the go to person for my friends and family when they are out of town. I will take care and love your best friend just like they are my own. "Dogs are not our while life, but they make our lives whole." I currently work at a group home doing a few overnights a week and also work part time as a server. I am available most days for walks and drop ins. I have a 1 year old German Shepherd who is very sweet and playful, so if your pup is friendly, we can discuss doggy day care as well :) I have a fenced in yard and one dog of my own (German Shepherd) who is very playful, and my roommate has a Grey Hound who is pretty lazy and just lays on the couch all the day. My dog enjoys playing fetch in the yard, going to the dog park, walking the trails by our house, and snuggling up on the couch. Please let me know if your dog is reactive when going on walks, along with if they are friendly towards people and other dogs, as I'm sure there will be plenty of people asking if they can pet your dog! I am guilty of being that annoying person who always asks if I can pet a dog lol My dog is my fur baby and I know how hard it is to find someone who you can trust to treat and take care of your fur baby just like your own. I will spoil and give them love just like they were my own, and just like they deserve :)

“Makayla was so amazing!! She sent all kinds of pics and I could see in my dogs face they were so happy and comfortable with her. Kept me at ease!”

About: I am an energetic person and love to work with animals outside. I do enjoy walks with them, and I got to work on a dude ranch a few years ago! Animals were always around! I love to engage with pets and keep them engaged till they are ready to relax. I am a full-time archaeologist, but I have time when I'm not traveling for work in the afternoons. I am looking to take on some extra work and get to care for some pets! I can't have a cat or dog due to my travel, but I love to be around them. I love to play with cats and dogs whenever I care for them. I give them the time they need to get used to me, and play more when they want to be near me or give them as many pets as they request. I am huge on getting dogs outside and getting their energy out.

About: I have taken care of dogs pretty much all my life and im very friendly! Im very animal focused as i have a dog, a cat, birds, and other exotic pets :) I also have experience with taking care of senior dogs Im currently working part time so i would only be able to take care of your pets in the afternoon (past 3) or overnight! As for weekends im usually free both days! I always make sure my own animals are played with and always make sure if i open doors they are far away from them! If animals have boundaries i always make sure to respect them as i see that they also have feelings :)

“Noelle is great! She is wonderful with our dog and understands how to deal with her anxiety with strangers.”
