Cat Sitters in Lakeville, MN

Dave

Dave was a great sitter. Totally reliable person. Everything he said he would do, he did. He is so easy to work with. He also took great care of our dog, who is not low maintenance (border collie). House was in great shape when I returned as well. I will be happy to have him stay here again if he is able.

lynette

Lynette was a great sitter! Super communicative and took great care of my place and pet!

Frank

Frank was a great sitter! He was thoughtful and easy to plan with, and handled the 8 day sit without issue. I came home to happy dogs and a well-tended house. I would happily sit-match with Frank again!

Beth & Bruce

Beth & Bruce came to stay for a week with my cats and took great care of them and my house! I got the right amount of check ins with happy cat pics. They were kind and helpful and tidy - I'd have them back anytime and would recommend to anyone looking for great sitters. Thank you!!

Mary & Art

Mary and Art did an excellent job of caring for our “kids.” Left the house in excellent shape and our dogs were in perfect shape. We are very pleased with Mary and Art and would recommend them to anybody without reservation

Julia

Julia was such a great sitter. She was willing to get to know us beforehand, and came over a few weeks before the sit to walk Rufus with us. She left the house immaculate and was very communicative throughout her entire stay. She was willing to flex with our travel schedule and Rufus loved her too!

Jessa & Noel

Jessa and Noel we’re simply wonderful! Excellent communication throughout and when I came home, I found a very happy tired dog, which means I know he had good playtime and walks! The house was spotless, and my plants had been taken care of. Highly recommend this wonderful couple and their dog Tonka!

Michelle & Peter

I couldn’t be happier with Michelle’s sit - she was amazing! She came early for an orientation. Michelle had clearly carefully read the welcome guide as she was already up to speed on everything. When I returned home, Wilbur was happy and chill - a sure sign he loved his sitter. She updated me with photos and news about how Wilbur was doing. The home was spotless upon my return. I’d love to have Michelle sit for me anytime!!

Karen

Karen did a phenomenal job looking after Zoe and Alfie, and our house was even cleaner than when we left! We would not hesitate to recommend her!! Mark and Kate

John & Shannon

My cat Zephyr and I love it whenever Shannon and John are free, because they are so kind, courteous, thoughtful, and communicative! They even brought him a new toy to play with, and sent me delightful photos of Zephyr really enjoying his time with it! Anyone would be lucky to have them over, but I’m secretly hoping that I get dibs on them whenever I am out of town, hahaha!

Anne

Anne watched my two cats and did an excellent job! She left the house super clean, was a great communicator, and even earned the love of my less-friendly cat! I would definitely have her back and recommend her to anyone looking for someone to care for their fur babies!

Aleasha & Lee

AleaSha and Lee were so incredibly kind, conscientious, and communicative. While I was away, they won my cat over with treats and doted on him until he got cozy with them which is huge considering that, as a former stray, he is painfully shy! I’m so grateful that my cat Zephyr was is such good hands! They even went above and beyond to even return a defective ikea shelf that I bought, brought home a replacement, and then BUILT IT. When the sit came to an end, they tidied up the place and left it sparkling clean.

Sheree and Mary Margaret

This was the third time Mitch stayed with Dora and we are always delighted when he has the availability to be her pet sitter. We had regular updates, Dora was well looked after and was bonded with Mitch on the first day we were away. Mitch took me to and from the airport and cooked us a lovely dinner on our return. He's a very nice person and we welcome him back anytime he is wanting to spend time with Dora. If you have the chance to get Mitch to sit for you, don't hesitate.

Lori

Karen was the best house sitter we’ve ever had. She is very friendly and thoughtful and communicated so well with us while we were in Europe. She arrived early so we could do a walk-through of the house - which I appreciated so much. That way we could both be comfortable that our needs would be met. She took meticulous care of everything and I felt very confident that the house and my two cats were being loved and cared for - which they were! We would definitely have her back anytime she wanted to visit San Antonio again!
