House Sitting in Woodland

“Stephanie took great care of my girls and my house. She was an excellent communicator and I loved the photos she sent while I was away. I would definitely have her back to care for my dogs again!”

Nicole G.

“Oliver was warm, professional and clearly experienced with dogs. Updates and photos gave us peace of mind. Our pups were happy, healthy and well-loved. We recommend Oliver for housesitting/pet sitting, and we’ll ask him to come back in the future.”

“Jamie was prompt, communicative, and kind enough to pick up more treats and TP when we left home with a low supply. Our dog is happy and cared for. Thanks!”

Renata S.

“Elizabeth was great! My dog can be a bit of a diva but everything went well and River felt calm around her. I received updates and messages throughout and my house was left very clean!”

Kiana E.

“Teresa was wonderful! I have a senior dog with some limitations and I felt safe leaving my dog with Teresa. You can tell she genuinely cares for animals and enjoys spending time with them. She left the house cleaner than I left it for her. I highly recommend!”

“Katy did a great job pet sitting for our four pets while we were out of town for a long weekend. Despite a lot of instructions around our animal care routines (we have three senior pets, and all of our pets are either on meds or prescription diets), she handled everything in stride. She communicated frequently, clarified any questions she had, and kept our pets happy and cozy at home while we were gone. This was the first time we've ever used Rover, or a pet sitter we didn't know personally, and thanks to Katy's efforts, we will feel safe doing so again. Thank you, Katy!”

“We were very happy with Margaret. She obviously loves dogs, and she gave our dog much love and attention. Our dog loved Margaret! Additionally, the house was clean when we returned and the laundry was done! I would definitely use her again.”

Jane S.

“Deb was fantastic! She was consistent with communication and photos and details which we appreciated so much! We would definitely have her back.”

“Rachel was absolutely wonderful with our two puppies! She helped us out in a pinch when we had to leave for a last-minute weekend getaway, and we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. She was reliable, responsive, and clearly cared deeply for our pups. We came home to two happy, well-loved dogs and a peaceful house. We’re so grateful for her flexibility and kindness — we’ll definitely be reaching out to her again!”

“Christian was amazing at taking care of our dog and house! Our dog Louie, was well cared for, walked three times per day, clearly cuddled/loved, and our house was clean and plants watered. Christian communicated with updates often and went above and beyond in care, cleanliness, house care, and communication!!!!! We will definitely book with Christian anytime we go out of town.”

About: With over 20 years of hands-on experience raising multiple Norwegian Elkhounds, I’ve turned daily dog park visits into a joyful, high-energy ritual. Whether your pup loves a brisk walk, a game of fetch, or simply needs attentive full-time care, I’m here to provide it. From playful puppies to wise senior dogs, I tailor my approach to meet each pet’s unique needs—ensuring comfort, companionship, and peace of mind for you. Regular Off-Leash Dog Parkvisits to these parks: Susan E. Lurton Park - Orono Lake Minnewashta - Excelsior Carver Park Reserve - Victoria Pet care works well for me as I only have part time work with an investment thesis I am writing about. Local to Deephaven and the Lake Minnetonka area for 10+ years. I have a fenced yard and one 9 year old Norwegian Elk Hound who is dog friendly or I am able to dog/house sit at your place. Glad to provide a daily update.

“Brooke did a great job with our high-energy dog, Isa! Brooke is very knowledgeable about enrichment activities and was both patient and proactive with our dog. Isa can be sensitive while we’re away. It made such a difference that Brooke sent wonderful updates throughout our trip and Isa looked happy and very well cared for. We came home to a clean house and a happy dog!”

“Eleanor was great, she quickly responded to my last minute booking request, was very friendly and easy to communicate with. It was only a one night booking but she sent updates and photos still and my apartment was in great condition when I came back.”

About: I’ve been a pet owner my entire adult life. I grew up with dogs and raised three of my own. I was a foster parent for Secondhand Hounds before adopting two of my own rescues. I’ve also raised animal lovers and my daughter is currently attending Cornell to become a veterinarian. I’m an awesome photographer and you’ll likely come away from the experience with some great photos of your furry family member. I currently work full-time, until June, when I am retiring from owning a daycare. Until then, I’m available evenings and weekend. Starting in the summer, I will be wide open for extensive pet sitting. I have a fenced in yard for my dogs, but am familiar with invisible fence dog security and love long dog walks around the neighborhood.

“Stacy took such good care of Bentley! I got photo updates all day and felt so good, especially since it was my first time leaving him. Truly couldn’t have asked for better!”

Lisa S.

“Kristen is truly a phenomenal pet sitter and all-around wonderful person! She took care of our dog, cat, and fish for nearly two weeks while we were on vacation—and went above and beyond by also tending to our home and garden. We’ve entrusted our pets to Kristen for several years now, and every time we leave, we can rest easy knowing they’re in her incredibly capable and caring hands. She’s responsible, communicative, and genuinely kind to our animals. We feel so lucky to have found her!”

“Autumn was incredible! She had 5 star communication and provided an incredible experience for our dog while we were out of town! Highly recommend and hope to book with her again!”
