Dog Walkers in Lester Prairie, MN

“So happy to have found Kim to help with walking our two dogs (including a puppy) when we have to be away from home. Our puppy is still learning leash manners and Kim was so patient with her!”

About: Growing up I was always the kid who would dog sit rather than kid sit! I have loved dogs since I can remember and I now have a goldendoodle who I have raised a trained since he was a puppy! I work from home full time and have a flexible schedule throughout the day. I enjoy the morning hours and have nighttime flexibility as well. I have a decent size yard for the dogs to play in, it is not fenced in. Owners know their dogs best and I always ensure I am aware of what they feel comfortable with and the boundaries they put in place. I have ground ties if desired.

“Bailey has been amazing with Winnie! She’s always on time, takes great updates pictures, and trains Winnie while they walk!!”

“Regan is the best! She is the only person I trust to watch my dogs. She is so good with dogs and has so much experience with all types and sizes of dogs. She truly knows what she’s doing. Regan is very trustworthy and has great communication skills. She loves dogs and will be a great dog sitter for you.”

“Always great with last minute bookings dogs love her.”

“Rachel is one of my best friends and is the most responsible and caring person I know. Rachel has a strong love for all animals, which has been strengthened through years of owning and caring for pets. Whenever Rachel has cared for my dog, she provided him the most loving, safe, and fun environment. He loves spending time with Rachel, and is always sad when she has to leave. This connection is not limited to my pet, though, as Rachel has the ability to connect with any animal.”

“Claire is a wonderful walking and sitter of my little buddy. She sends photos everything day after their walks and always updates me with a Rover card. She’s prompt, flexible, and caring and I couldn’t recommend her enough!”

“Kallea has been our neighbor since 2013. We have used her numerous times for dog sitting, house sitting, and babysitting. She is extremely responsible and is very trustworthy. All around a great person! I cannot recommend her enough!”

About: Our family is an avid animal lover, dogs and cats alike! We have had several breeds of dogs and have experience with dogs with blindness, deafness, both blind and deaf, and severe anxiety. If your dog wants to hop on our couch, crawl up in our laps or sleep next to us in bed, we will gladly allow room! Previous work experience includes ten plus years working in a hospital based pharmacy setting so I am comfortable administering any medications your dog may require. I have extensive rescue experience and know what to expect with varieties of breeds. I also am active in the lost dog community. I am a mom to three children and I work from home. I am available generally at a moments notice and can accommodate to your pets specific schedule to cause as little stress as possible. I will provide the same care and experience in your home that your pet does when you’re home. It doesn’t matter if a walk is your normal potty routine or playing fetch in the backyard!

About: I have taken care of animals for many years! I have Much experience! Your animal will be in good hands with what your needs are! I’m currently in school for aesthetics so I’m doing this cause it’s something else I love! There is always someone home! But I’m home for the next 3 months! I don’t have a fence so I would need to walk your dog on a leash if they will run. I have a dog at home. Her names daisy. She’s a golden Saintberdoddle! She’s about 50lb. She’s very sweet with other dogs :)

“Laura is amazing!!! My dog is always so excited to see her! She is super accommodating and flexible! I would 100% recommend her to anyone.”

“Ever since I remember Dayjah has had a care for animals. Growing up my sister loved to take care of all sorts of animals. At a young age in the spring you would see Dayjah taking her net to a swamp to collect tad poles and watch them grow up. It didn’t end at tad poles, she rescued an injured duck, rabbits and every day she would always visit six or seven horses near our house getting to know them by there names learning from there owners how to take care of them because someday Dayjah wanted to own a horse. Anyway her love of animals has never stopped. As an adult she has fostered several dogs and cats. And found great homes for them all making sure they were good fits for the people and the animal. I myself can thank her for my two cats that were her fosters. Taking care of animals is just what she does and she has done all of her life.”

“Meghan took such great care of my dog Corey while I was away for a family vacation. Corey is an older gentleman and I was really pleased with how well they got along and how relaxed he was when we got back home.”

“There is no question that Desiree would be a fantastic pet caregiver. She has proven time and time again that she not only cares for my dog, but other dogs as well. She is responsible, loving, and has the perfect set up for a dog(s) of any size. She is always more than happy to take them on walks, to parks, and is always spot on for chow time. Desiree makes it a point to make a strong connection with whatever dog she is caring for. I have had my dog taken care of by her a few times and will not hesitate in the slightest for future opportunities. Highly recommend!”

About: I have taken care of all types of pets, and even own a few myself. At the moment I have 5 horses, 6 dogs, and 1 cat. I know what you’re thinking, wow she’s crazy, but what can i say? I love animals. I’ve always had such a big place in my heart for taking care of animals and eventually want to get a career working with them. I have pet sit for my family members and a few friends for overnight sitting, or just for a few hours during the day. I would love to take care of your munchkins for you!! I currently have school until around 2 everyday of the week. I can overnight sit Friday to Sunday. Otherwise I can watch your dog for days at a time during the week and just not be able to sleep over. When I take my dogs out to the bathroom they are on a leash, same with going on walks with them. My cat is an outside cat and he will usually go on my walks with me when I take my dogs. I wake up early in the mornings to feed all my animals and take them potty, same thing for night time. Usually i’ll try and let my pets out to the bathroom every 30-40 minutes just to be safe. And my dogs love playing outside while i throw a ball for them. Quality time and snuggling is an everyday must!!

About: Hi, my name is Jen. I’m a wife, a mom (to both humans (20, 17, & 15 years old) and fur ❤️), and a registered nurse. I’m a lover of all animals, and would love to take care of yours when needed! I’ve always had a dog, our latest dog, Maximus (an Italian mastiff) passed away last summer from an unfortunate illness-he was our light, and someday soon, we’ll find our newest love to join our family again. We’ve had dog breeds from bullies to boxers, to frenchies and beagles to mastiffs. No breed is too large or too small, I love them all! I have experience in caring for pets needing medication and physical therapy, extra attention, exercise, training, etc. I’m a patient mama who will be your gal to help you out in need! I’m a part time hospital RN. My nights are always open, but working as a hospital RN, my shifts aren’t typical, meaning I have more availability throughout the week to be open for your little fur babes! My calendar is always updated, but as working part time I may work a few hours, so just send a message my way to check my availability on any given day! 🤗 We recently moved into a new build, so a fence has yet to be installed, but we have a fantastic walking trail behind our house, a wonderful grassy yard, and hardwood floors, just in case :) We also have a camera on the front of our garage and front door, as do most of our neighbors, and our neighborhood has a Facebook group in case of emergency as well! Your pets safety is my top priority because I care for your pet(s) as I would expect someone to care for mine-just like my nursing ❤️❤️

“Brooke is wonderful with my dogs. They are excited to see her when she come to the house to pick them up. I almost think they like her better than me. After being gone, when the dogs come home they are relaxed and not stressed. She has great control with them and they listen to her when she addresses them. I have used Brooke for both in home dog sitting and drop off dog sitting. She follows instructions perfectly when my dog needed medications as well. I have a French Bulldog and a Great Dane. We give her a 5 PAW!!!”

About: I am so excited to meet your pets! I have dog training experience since childhood, having grown up with pets. I have enjoyed watching plenty of homes and animals—cats and dogs both tiny and huge, and each one receives my full attention and love! I have very flexible availability; I am currently only taking flexible work like caring for your animals, so they will receive my fullest attention! I love to walk doggos, run with them, and I am willing to work with your schedule and needs as much as possible! I reserve the right to refuse service. I am very thorough, and I’m willing to complete moderate household cleaning during any dog or cat sitting. Pets are family — yours is in safe hands with me! HYGIENE: I thoroughly clean any touched surfaces after visits. For overnights, I am willing to launder bedding and wear gloves while in the home if that is your preference! Please let me know of any special requests you have during my stay or visits. Pets’ lives are so different than ours—when their world is YOU, it is truly wonderful when you can’t be there to have someone you can trust will look after them with the same care that you would. My personal schedule is extremely flexible, so your pet care schedule is my pet care schedule! I always make sure my own dog is fed and let out first thing in the morning, has consistency, gets plenty of enrichment and exercise, and goes out right before bed. Your pets deserve this too, even when you can’t be right there for it! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I try to keep their lives and schedules close to what they are used to. However, I also love to work with you to create the ideal space and schedule for your pets! If you wish you could go on longer walks it would love to commit more time to certain training activities or grooming, that’s something I can offer during my stay! I also like to keep a clean house — no matter what state your house is in (I will never judge), my goal is to leave it better than I found it. You deserve to come home to a space that makes you feel peaceful and where you can focus on giving yourself—and your pets—the best life possible!

“Olivia was amazing to work with. Very responsible and receptive to your needs as well as your pet's needs. She did a really great job of sending any photos and updates on each visit. Winston and Darcy appreciated the visits and hope to see her again!”

“Elizabeth is wonderful with animals! Let’s start with she has loved being around animals since she was a little. She has always had a heart for caring for them making sure all of their needs are met. She has watched our dog Mylah numerous times and always gives us a report on how she did and what she all did with her. She is very responsible and reliable! Mylah always looks forward to spending time with her.”
