She is kind and meets their individual needs. I am so happy to have met her personally on a meet and greet. Looking forward to more bookings in the future!”

“Katie did an amazing job with our girl. We have a cat who hates everyone but us, and Katie got her to warm up and accept some pets and play time while we were gone. She was attentive, professional, kind, and communicated well. I can’t wait to have her come watch Stella the next time we leave.”

About: Oh my gosh, where to even begin... :) I started and built, Girl Meets Dog Pet Care Services - Chicago, from 2000, through 2018, when I became too ill with Lyme Disease, and needed to move back to my hometown to be closer to my family until I became well enough to get back on my feet. Now, I have little home in Spicer, MN, with a big deck and a fenced in yard. I work from home so it's me and my big sweet Ni'ta girl (100 lbs. of Great Pyrenees sweetness) hanging around here all the time, so we've decided it's time some other sweet kids get to come soak up this perfect dog loving life with us! You can find more about us via Girl Meets Dog - Spicer on the FB as well. I miss having a house filled with 'nieces and nephews' for me to dote on and spoil rotten, so, if your kid deserves to be treated like like true children (or even better than that, in my book ;)), then this is where they belong. I had clients that called it 'going to camp' when they were coming to stay with us (the dogs and I - it's just me, and my pup-girl here, FYI :)). Since I work from home, I am home with my dogs and kitty 95% of the time, so I am able to provide all the love and company to visitor kids they could possibly want. I do daily walks and have a fenced in yard. They own the place. I just live here and dote on them, basically. :) I am almost always here (at most I'm gone for a 4 hour stretch 2-3 times a week).

About: I have had dogs and/or cats my entire life. My beloved Llewelyn setter passed in early 2025 and I have since moved into a homeowners association that doesn't permit pets. I recently sold my business and moved to Willmar to be near family. Pet care will be my only obligation and it will be a pleasure for me to care for pets. I will provide care in your home where your pet is most comfortable and follow owners' instructions to provide consistency in your pet's daily routine.

“Abby was great at communicating and did an outstanding job with our Wednesday.”

About: Ever since I can remember I have adored animals. I have always been the person who would go over to a friend's house and end up sitting by their pet the whole time! When I became old enough, I started volunteering at my local animal shelter and pet sitting as much as I could. At the shelter, I walked dogs, spent time playing with cats and kittens, and helped clean kennels and cages. I have a senior dog and senior cat that I have had their whole lives so I have extensive experience raising and training pets, as well as experience with senior animals. I also have a rabbit so am familiar with different kinds of pet care as well! I am currently unemployed, though I do have potential offers in the works, so for now I have full availability! I will update my availability as it changes. Due to having 2 senior pets that hate all other pets but each other, I am unable to offer boarding at this time. However, I will provide any sort of care necessary for your pets in your homes! I am very good at following directions if you have a list for me, but I am also good at just knowing what goes into caring for pets, such as watching for potty cues and noticing when they need mental or physical stimulation.

“Great experience! I will be rebooking with him again. Thank you!”

“Faith did a drop in service for my dog. She sent pictures and reports on how my dog was doing. I was happy with the service she provided and would use her again!”

Medication administration if needed, Exercise is essential in my care for younger aged dogs, as well as dogs that require special diets.

About: I have a lifelong passion for caring for animals, always having a beloved pet by my side. With years of experience as the go-to pet sitter in my family and friend group, I take pride in giving animals my full, undivided attention. I genuinely enjoy spending time walking and playing with all types of pets. I am committed to providing reliable and dedicated care for your pets, anytime and anywhere you need me. As a full-time pet sitter, I’m just one message away, ready to meet your needs. Your pet’s well-being is my top priority. I ensure they are well-fed, hydrated, and never miss a potty break. Daily walks and engaging playtime are always part of the care I provide. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily and weekly routine, as it aligns with my passion for animals and my flexible schedule. Whether it's for my own pets or those I care for as a sitter, I dedicate specific times each day to feeding, walking, and playing with them. My focus is on providing loving, personalized care that meets each pet’s unique needs. I maintain the pet’s routine, following specific instructions for feeding, medication, and exercise.

“Great sitter, always sends pictures of your pups. Let’s you know how they’re doing. I will definitely have her as a sitter again. She’s was great with my pups and cat they loved her. I recommend her 100% she’s very friendly and great.”

About: I'm a teacher and an animal lover! I'm great at caring for others. 😄 We have two friendly cats and would love to host some dogs. I'm available most weekends and all summer. I'm available to board your pet most weekends! You can always reach out even if my schedule says not available. Those that have boarded with us love that their pet was clean, relaxed and well cared for. My kids love animals and your pet will be given a lot of attention. We have two cats that we love dearly. Our animals are part of our family. We hope to meet a few nice families that want their pets to get some extra attention in evenings or weekends.

About: I’ve taken care of my own pets as well as neighbour's occasionally for about 5 years! I feed, bathe, and exercise my pets as needed. I have also taken care of other animals, such as guinea pigs, turtles, bunnies, and cats! I am very flexible! I just graduated high school and looking for a temporary summer job before I move off to college! I can work Sunday-Friday anytime from 7am-5pm! I have two friendly outdoor dogs, as well as a big outdoor dog kennel if they needed to be separated. I also have a smaller cage to keep your fur baby inside if needed!

About: As someone who grew up with animals in the house, i view cats and dogs as an extension of the family unit. In having grown up with and around both dogs and cats, I have an inside knowledge on what is required to ensure your fur baby feels safe, loved and cared for. I will make it my goal to ensure that my home is a safe haven where your animals see it as a "home away from home". I initially got into pet sitting after having my friends, neighbors, and co-workers, ask me to watch their pets for a few days so that they were able to go on vacation, have a date night, go away for a business trip etc, and from there I've found myself continuing to assist going on over two years. One thing that has compelled me to expand my services has been the cost-to-level-of-care ratio and the hassle that Boarding has had on my parents, co-workers, and friends. As someone who acknowledges the constraints and the need and desire of pet mom and dads when seeking out care for their fur babies, I invite you to book with me so that we can make sure that your pet can feel as if they are at a "home away from home". I work from home and am able to dedicate the time, energy, and care required to take care of animals with a spectrum of needs. Dedicated room for kennels and boarding, fenced-in back yard, safe neighborhood, ability to take extended stays due to a flexible schedule, bathing, walking, and potty training

“We were very pleased with Rachel Ann. She spent a lot of time with our 2 cats and was not in a hurry to just get in and get out. She was professional and very personable. I’d recommend her to anyone who asks.”
