Dog Sitting in White Bear Lake

About: I have taken care of friends and families pets for years. Now I am in college looking to put my animal loving heart to good use. I work part time but my afternoons are open, usually filled with a walk and I’d love to be accompanied by your furry friend! I am very good with animals and always try to keep them near me at all times because I understand how important they are to their owners.

“Jeffrey does an amazing job checking in on our 3 dogs during the day. He’s communicative, timely, and always polite. Our dogs very much appreciate his drop-in visits. I recommend him for your dog care needs.”

About: I’m confident and comfortable with both dogs and cats, including puppies, senior pets, high-energy dogs, shy animals, and pets that need extra patience or attention. I also have experience with potty training puppies, reinforcing routines and basic commands, and making pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I have worked professionally for years as a pet sitter for a wide variety of animals. This has given me experience and confidence in handling different temperaments, routines, and care requirements. I also grew up homeschooled on lots of land, so pets have been part of my everyday life for as long as I can remember. Because I was home during the day, I spent a lot of time helping with feeding, training, socializing, exercising, and caring for animals of all ages and personalities. What sets me apart is my genuine love for animals, whether they’re my own pets or someone else’s. I truly view animals as part of the family, and I believe every pet deserves individualized care, attention, patience, and love based on their unique personality and needs. I would treat every single pet as if it was my very own fur baby. I recently got married to the love of my life and moved to Mahtomedi! My husband works full time, I, however, have a completely wide open schedule! I have always loved animals and would love to fill my week days with taking care and of other people’s fur babies. Monday- Friday I am available any time of day all day. I am also available on weekends depending on the weekend, so please feel free to reach out and ask if the weekend you’re hoping for aligns with my summer plans. If I am staying in the pets home, I am sure to keep their routine as similarly as their owners do, so that both the pet and the owner feel as safe and comfortable as they can. I would be more than happy to send pictures and videos of their pet to update them on how they are doing. If the pets were in my home, I would do my best to make that temporary transition as smooth and as comfortable for them as possible. Whether that be bringing their own toys or bed, or letting them snuggle in the bed with me if that’s what they are used to. With my schedule being solely dedicated to pet sitting, your pet will never lack attention in whatever ways they need! Whether that’s endless walks and tug of war, snuggles on the couch, or just having a safe hand around to make sure they are picked up after.

About: I've had lots of experience with a wide variety of dogs from family pets to working with Wag! I have a 8 month old German Shepard/Lab, Opal, so I am comfortable with puppies and high energy breeds. I also have experience caring for senior animals. I am currently a stay-at-home mom. I am mostly available for weekend care but can do walks & check ins during the week if I bring my youngest with me. I am open to boarding and other care during the weekends. I have a fenced in yard for lots of fetch & play time. We love walks & hiking so lots of opportunities for exercise, fun & bonding with the dogs. I also have experience with crating if that is necessary.

“Brianna has been doing drop in/walk visits with Parker. She’s fantastic with him, so clearly a dog lover!!! I couldn’t have asked for a better person to take care of him, and I would highly recommend her!!”

“Nicole was great! Went above and beyond when I had a power outage scare while out of town. Great communication and on-time drop ins.”

About: I have taken care of dogs and cats since I was a small child. Animals have such sweet souls and are absolutely family! I will make sure they get the very best care, snuggles, and attention they deserve while you are away. :) I’m currently working part-time so I have a lot of flexibility during the week generally between 10am-4pm. If later times in the day are needed, I can’t guarantee I will be available, but I will always try my best to accommodate those requests whenever possible. In clients homes, I pay close attention to any instructions they give me for providing pet care. For dogs, I make sure there is clean drinking water for them, feed them, and take them out for potty breaks as needed. For cats, I check to make sure the litter box is in safe and clean condition for use, take care of feeding, and ensure they have clean drinking water. I also set aside playtime for both cats and dogs as needed.

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for pets, especially dogs. Whether it’s daily walks, overnight sitting, playtime, or providing extra patience and comfort, I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. I currently volunteer with a local dog rescue and also serve as a foster home for rescue dogs, which has given me experience with dogs of all ages, sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. From shy or anxious pups needing gentle care to energetic dogs who love adventure, I’m comfortable adapting to each dog’s unique personality and needs. Reliability, communication, and compassion are extremely important to me. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care, so I always aim to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free experience for both pets and owners. Whether your dog needs a fun walk, drop-in companionship, or just someone who genuinely loves animals, I’d be happy to help! I am filling in my evenings with casual dog walks. I can also help out on weekends, especially for those long days you want to be on the lake. I provide a comforting and loving presence with pets. I do not currently offer services in my home, but I will follow any and all safety guidelines you have for your pet at your home or while on walks. I want to make sure your pet is safe and cared for while in my care.

About: I grew up fostering dogs and have experience with up to 6 dogs in a household. I have experience with a wide range of sizes and age from 17 year old chihuahuas to 4 month old pitbulls. I also have experience with medically complex dogs including epilepsy, heart disease, extreme anxiety and more. I am very flexible and accommodating schedule wise. I am available on all weekdays and willing to stop by during the day. I am up early and willing to stay late if needed I am neat and tidy in a home and attentive to the animals. When walking dogs I am careful to stay away from other dogs and to keep a short leash.

About: Hello! We would love to welcome some new dogs into our home either for short trips or longer stays. Our family has a 4 year old golden doodle who loves to play with other dogs. We are an active homeschooling family and my husband works from home as well so someone is home a majority of the day! The kids are often playing in our large fenced in backyard and love to throw balls, run around with or just snuggle with dogs! We love to get out for walks and spend a lot of time on the couch reading so there are ample amounts of time we can spend loving on your fur-babies! Please reach out if you have any questions or would like to see if our family would be a good fit. We want to be a place where you can feel comfortable leaving your dogs while you are away! For the safety of my family, my dog, and your dog we require all pets to have a meet and greet before booking. This will allow us to make sure that we are a good fit for each other and that I can provide all the care your pet needs while also keeping my family safe. As a homeschooling family and work-from-home dad someone is usually home during the day. We can work with the families to make sure that we can provide all the love and care that your dog needs and desires! We have a fenced in backyard and a sweet medium sized goldendoodle to keep your dogs happy and well exercised! As each dog is different we are happy to work with families to make your dogs stay away from home as comfortable as possible!

“Really reliable and super helpful”

About: Pets have been part of my family for my whole life. Current animals in my home include Timber (a 8-year-old English Cream Retriever) and Cedar (a 6-year-old tuxedo cat who is comfortable with cat-friendly dogs). My 1/4 acre lot features a large, fenced yard with plenty of room to run, and I am home almost all the time, so I can provide all the care and attention your pet needs. I look forward to meeting your furry family member! I work from home with a ton of flexibility. My schedule allows me the flexibility to give your pet all of the care they need. Your pet will receive constant care and attention with plenty of opportunity to play in my large, fenced yard. The interior of my family's home features plenty of space for your pet to relax comfortably, with room for crating if your pet needs. I have experience with pets who need medication (my own takes a twice daily medication) or special care. I would love to invite you to stop by for a meet-and-greet!

About: We have both had dogs since childhood, and our whole family (kids included now) LOVE giving our pet, and others, loads of love and attention. We already care for our dog with a daily walk and three meals a day. We homeschool, so plenty of potty breaks during the day as well. We hope to incorporate your pet into our daily life the same way that we include our dog, Mokki. Walks, playing outside, and relaxing in the house.

“Emma did a great job working with my puppy Paddy during her drop in visits. She kept me updated and sent lots of pictures! Will use her in the future!”

“Bailey took wonderful care of our amazing doggos while we were on vacation last week, and we would highly recommend her for anyone needing drop in care. It put our mind at ease knowing that she was taking such good care of our babies, and that our elderly dog could stay in the comfort of her own home. Thanks soooo much Bailey!”
