Compassionate Care For Your Household Pets As If They Were Our Own

We do more than just dog walking and sitting. We treat all of your household pets just as you would; with compassion, care, and plenty of love and attention.

V.I.People & Pets is a family-owned & operated business. This is the best way I’ve found to ensure that your pets get the right care, all of the time. I don’t hire contractors or employees, because I want to build a rapport with your pets that also becomes a lasting relationship with you and your family. Whether it’s a dog, cat, hamster, guinea pig, rat or mouse or any other non-venomous/non-aggressive household pet, having the familiarity of a single sitter or walking companion is essential.

Consider all of the ways that you could benefit from my unique and highly-rated service:

• I am PSI & NAPPS Certified/bonded/insured since 2005. These certifications provide pet sitters with a broad-ranged and in-depth program in pet sitting. The curriculum includes topics in pet care, health, nutrition and behavior, as well as business development and management, and a complete American Red Cross Pet First Aid/CPR course. You are guaranteed quality care.

• Your dog will be regularly walked on the days you choose, and at the times agreed upon. This keeps a familiar routine, even if you will be away from the home for an extended business trip or vacation.

• I’ll walk your dog in any weather that is safe for me and your pet. Snow? No problem: AWD, and Minnesota snow-driving experience! Muddy paws will be wiped with provided towels if the walking forecast calls for rain.

• I’ll refresh your pets’ food/water and keep all bowls clean, keep cat litter boxes fresh and clean, give daily medications including injectibles, clean up accidents, and perform any of your other daily pet care tasks.

• Caged pets will receive fresh food/water/bedding and cage-cleaning/treats on a regular basis.

• We proudly maintain a perfect 5-star online review rating! You will find some at the footer of each page.

A Pet Sitting & Dog Walking Service For Busy Animal Lovers

Having pets in the home is one of life’s greatest joys, but there are moments when pet care simply becomes too much. You could be running out of time in your schedule, planning a vacation, or simply need a break with a day away from the home.

Whatever the reason, you can get help with a local dog walking and pet sitting service that takes care of your furry friends, with all the love and affection that your animals deserve.  V.I.People & Pets is your perfect choice!

With a local in-home pet care and dog walking service, all of your house pets will have individual attention. Dogs get a regular yet adventurous walking schedule, and time to play outside under close supervision. There’s no interruption to the normal routine, and this is one of the most important things that you can do for your dog, cat, rabbit, fish, reptile, bird, frog, turtle etc, even if you don’t have the time because of other obligations.

Regular walking is critical to the health of your dog. As you will know from the time spent with your pet, this can improve their health and temperament.

• Regular walking gives exercise and stimulation. This keeps your dog happy and mentally sharp.

• Walking helps to maintain a healthy weight, reduces the likelihood of arthritis and other conditions, and helps with bone growth and conditioning.

• When your dog regularly walks and exercises, (s)he will get rid of excess energy. This can improve their mood and ensure better behavior at home.

• Walking can even be considered as a training opportunity. Dog’s aren’t naturally inclined to walk with a leash, so regular excursions can help to build discipline.

If you are going to be busy with work, family commitments, vacation, or recovering from sickness or injury, you’ll have several options available: 

• You could ask a friend or family member to take care of your pets, but this could be inconvenient and not as consistent as you would hope. 

• You could hire a large company to watch your pets, but cost can be expensive, payment system is rigid, and high employee turnover means you never know who might be coming into your home. 

• You could leave your pets at a long-term boarding facility, but this would take them out of their normal environment and could lead to unnecessary stress, anxiety and sickness. 

• Finally, you could choose to have V.I.People & Pets right in your own home, which will work out best for the unique needs of any house pet.

If you’re going to be away or too busy to regularly walk, feed, and socialize with your beloved pets, then V.I.People & Pets is the best option. You can contact me today to discuss your needs for the days and times that suit you best. You will also receive ONE FREE VISIT as a new onboard.

Why It’s Better to Have a Pet Care Professional Visit Your Home

Pets feel most comfortable when they’re at home. Taking your dog, cat, or any other pet to daycare or a kennel might seem like the best choice at first, but there are some downsides to doing this.

• I am an experienced Certified Professional Pet Sitter that has a proven system in place, including readiness plans for less common yet potentially serious occurrences.

• Your pet could become confused and anxious in an unfamiliar environment.

• Illnesses can spread throughout a daycare and kennel, leading to unhappy pets and expensive vet bills.

• Your pet may not respond well around other animals, or vice versa. This could lead to injuries or anxiety.

• The level of care is not the same as what your pet would receive at home. You don’t want your dog locked in a kennel or your cat kept in a cage while you don’t have time to care for them.

Any way you look at it, your beloved pets are going to feel their safest and most comfortable when they are in their own familiar environment.

Just like people, pets need familiarity. We will visit your home at regularly-scheduled intervals, ensuring that your pet is cared for without stress or interruption to their normal routine.
