Dog Walkers in Carlton, MN

About: Hi! I am a small business owner with pets of my own. I love to be inside or outside and have a very flexible schedule. Communication is my super power so you will always know that your pets are safe and sound! I am also very patient as I am a caregiver for my aging mother. I work for myself, so my schedule tends to be very flexible and variable. Also sat on schedule and thus can flow with changes as needed. Each pet has different needs, each pet owner has different expectations. I am very ready to listen and deliver what you need for your pets.

About: I have owned my dogs since they were puppies and trained them myself for general commands as sit, down and come, and also potty training. I also grew up with cats. I also used to have a roommate where I would assist in the care of her German Shepherd as well who does not do well with strangers, which makes me used to big dogs that seem scary and can pull if they want to. I am able to do bathing anf nail trimming if requested as well. I have already had COVID-19 and also am fully vaccinated for COVID-19. I currently work full time 9-5 job Monday-Friday straight. I can easily schedule drop ins and walks fitting around this schedule as my regular schedule is extremely predictable. I’m flexible in needing to leave work early if I need to on certain days and may be able to accommodate for last minute changes in your needs. I am comfortable with both shy and overly exitable pets of all sizes and can match their energy and needs. I will take pets on outings and work with training on request.

“Amber is the best! I'm so happy with how it's going with my pups! My chihuahua-dachshund is impossible to walk but just a couple of weeks of walking with Amber and he's walking without pulling!!”

“Sabrina was very helpful and communicative. Really appreciated her responses, quick thinking and support with our high anxiety dog.”

About: I’ve cared for dogs of all ages and personalities for over 15 years, starting with family and neighbors and continuing through friends and repeat clients. I also volunteer walking dogs at the Humane Society in Superior, where I regularly work with nervous, high-energy, or more challenging dogs. I take a calm, patient approach and adjust to each dog’s needs, earning trust is always my goal. If a dog is difficult, I see it as an opportunity to connect. I truly love dogs, and I already love yours. I have a flexible schedule and work from home most days, which allows me to be present and attentive throughout the day. With about three days’ notice, I can adjust my schedule to accommodate pet care needs. On days I’m in the office or traveling for personal reasons, I communicate clearly in advance to ensure expectations are set and care is consistent. Safety and trust are always my top priorities. I have two friendly dogs of my own, and I’m mindful about introductions and routines. If a pet needs a quieter or separate environment, I have family nearby who can care for my dogs as needed. I have a partially fenced yard and use leashes and close supervision for outdoor time. I follow care instructions closely and focus on providing a calm, structured, and safe environment.

About: Hi there! My name’s Spicer, and I’m a lifelong dog lover/owner who believes every animal deserves to feel safe, happy, and loved while their owner is away. Whether it’s cuddles on the couch, long walks, or just keeping up with their favorite routines, I’ll treat your pet like my own. I go above and beyond to make sure your pet feels comfortable and cared for. You can count on regular updates, photos, and messages so you can relax knowing your furry friend is in good hands. From daily walks to overnight stays, I make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, playtime, and affection. My goal is to give you peace of mind and your pet the love and care they deserve. I can’t wait to meet your best friend! I am currently am awaiting for my university classes to begin, during this time I am free weekdays and weekends, and am flexible with time! Any specific requests for them? Let me know! I allow them on my bed and couch, unless you prefer them not to in your house. I am happy to positively reenforce all of the rules in your household for your pets. I always keep the water bowl full and pets happy and healthy. Allow me to meet yall and lets play fetch!

About: Living on a farm, I have a lot of experience interacting with animals of all kinds. Running a farm of any size is not a one person job so my family is a big part of my life. I can’t imagine a better place to live doing something I love. Pet care is an integral part of my daily routine. Whether it is feeding and watering our chickens and cows or grooming our dogs, I work hard to ensure our animals are cared for. I am a stay at home mom so your four legged friends will rarely be left alone. I work hard to follow any instructions owners may give me. Additionally, I make sure all animals in our care have access to food, water, and love. I also like to take a few pictures of what we are up to send them to people so they know their pet is getting loved and cared for.

About: My husband and I have two spunky and energetic dogs as well as a one cat. Autumn is our sweet and big baby of a German shepherd and Nina is our headstrong and independent Husky. Nugget is our adorably sweet and cuddly tabby cat. I have a passion for animals that started very young, my dad would always bring home all sorts of animals from work such as a kitten, box turtle and even a squirrel! I have loads of experience with your average pet such as cats and dogs and even experience with your not so average animals such as turtles, birds and even squirrels. I also have experience and the utmost patience when it comes to working with deaf and blind animals. I completely understand that your dog(s) or cat(s)are like your children. We totally get it, we feel the same way! Any animal in my car will be treated with the utmost care, they’ll never be unhappy when you leave them in my care. I love meeting new people but I love meeting new furry friends even more! I am available for pet care 24/7. This is my full time job because it brings me so much joy and happiness to work with animals all day every day! I do not board or provide doggy daycare in my home as I have a large crew of my own and do not have a fenced in yard to be able to provide the best care for my clients. However I am more than happy to come to you. I often find that animals who stay in the comfort of their own environments are less likely to become stressed while their owners are away.

“My young dog had a poo accident and Kim took care of him and cleaned the mess. He was obviously ill and she showed him only love. Which I love. Thank you so much.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 10, from puppies to the elderly. They’re all adorable! I have experience giving medication such as pills and ear drops. I love all dogs and will clean up a mess they’ve made even if it’s inconvenient. Baths are always a struggle for most dogs, but I think of it as a fun challenge! I’m always putting my all into caring for your pet! I’m currently attending college, so I will take care of your adorable dogs when I’m not at school or at work! I have class on Thursdays, and I work at my internship on Tuesdays and Fridays! I also work my part time job in the evenings Monday-Friday.

About: I love animals of all shapes, breeds, sizes etc. Growing up I was surrounded by a variety of dogs; collies, mastiffs, and great danes. There was never a time we did not have a dog. I have a lot of experience with dogs and some with cats. I am also very familiar with geckos and bearded dragons. I had a crested gecko as well as a bearded dragon. I currently have two dogs: Skye and Bella. They are sisters who look and act completely different. Skye has had some medical issues so I'm familiar with medication administration and cleaning out ears. I work short shifts at my regular jobs so just message me to see if I am good fit for your fur babies! I will always do my best to make things work In my home, I walk my dogs around the neighborhood 3-4 times a day. So I would do the same for your dog(s). We love to go to the dog park and try to do that every week. With your approval that is always an option. In your home, I will make sure to follow your instructions so that you and your fur baby are as comfortable and happy as can be.

About: Hello there! I have been working in the pet industry for 6 years now and two years not in the industry. I have done everything from training to grooming. Currently living in Minneapolis, I have one larger dog named Gros tet (big head). He melts like butter and plays according to the animal visitors play type! When you book with me know your animals are in good hands, I will ask questions before the final book to make sure it is a good fit for you and for me. Communication is key in my eyes, and I love sending photo updates throughout the day! 2019 I left the active duty military, and my husband of 3 years is still active duty Marines. (So if you have an energetic pup that needs some run time we would be happy to accommodate!) when it comes to grooming, I operate my at home salon…well at home… could be good for some doggies and not so much for others. Ask away! I love giving recommendations to educate people about their pets:) Much love, The Legers At the moment I do not work but I go to online college! I’m typically home all day unless I need to step out for errands. We go to bed around 10-12pm and wake up around 7am everyday. Pretty relaxed. If you have a list I’ll gladly go through it. Every dog is different and with ever dog routines need to be adjusted. Since I already have a dog in home usually, visiting dogs like following him around, typically he is a very good trend setter! I will only do things I feel comfortable with, for example, if weather is bad and you would like a walk during the day, the animals safety comes first! We will try other games around the house! Or maybe even a training/mental stimulation session!
