Dog Walkers in Cologne, MN

About: MY family and I foster through the Carver-Scott humane society, with 2 Maine Coon cats of our own. I have 2 assistants (11 & 7) that would join me if approved to play with and cuddle your pet. We are understanding of varying personalities and intricacies of all animals and needs they may have. Our family is a homeschooling family that has day and night opportunities to serve your family. Our schedule is constantly changing, but can make time that fits into your schedule as well. We will come to your home to do the items you wish - feed, play, walk, cuddle with your pet. If your pet prefers a quiet environment with no kids, I will come solo. If your pet loves to play and get cuddled the 2 children will be happy to love on your pet. They are trained by the humane society and are well equipped to handle pets in different situations.

About: When it comes to animals, I love them all. I have extensive experience working with animals especially at a non profit no kill rescue that is unique giving everyone a chance no matter if they need high amounts of medical care. With that background, I'm comfortable caring for cats and dogs with medical needs, of all ages. I am most comfortable with small and medium dogs that are easy going and like going for walks! I work remote from home and have flexibility to adjust as needed for weekdays and weekends. I do need advance planning for anything more than a drop in. It's deeply personal to come into someone's home and care for their fur baby, I understand completely! Part of the planning process involves asking questions about your needs, preferences, expectations so we are in the same page!

About: I treat every pet like family—because they are. Reliable, detail-oriented, and full of love, I tailor care to your pet’s unique needs, from energetic play to gentle walks and extra snuggles. You’ll always get clear updates and a happy, cared-for best friend when you return. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I work with a flexible schedule that allows me to plan walks, drop-ins, and cuddle sessions around your pet’s needs—morning, midday, or evening. You can count on me to be consistent and reliable, so your pets get care right when they expect it. Your pet’s safety and comfort come first. In my home or yours, I create a calm, secure environment where pets can relax and feel at ease. I follow your pet’s normal routines to reduce stress, keep a close eye on their behavior, and make sure they’re never left in unsafe situations. I use secure leashes and harnesses for walks, double-check gates and doors, and ensure fresh water and clean spaces at all times. You can trust that I’ll treat your home with the same care and respect I give my own—and treat your pets like family.

About: I have over two years of hands-on experience providing loving, dependable pet care, including drop-in visits, in-home dog sitting, and dog walking. I’m lucky to have several amazing regular clients and truly enjoy building strong bonds with the pets I care for. One of my absolute favorites is Remy, a playful white Labrador I’ve been trusted to watch for over a year, he always keeps me smiling! I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and currently have four of my own, so caring for pups is second nature to me. I’m passionate about making sure every dog feels safe, happy, and loved while their owners are away. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or cuddles, I treat every dog like they’re part of my own family. I am currently in school, but I have a very flexible schedule that allows me plenty of time to check in on pups and spend quality time with them. I love being able to give dogs my full attention, whether that means extra playtime, long walks, or just keeping them company and making them feel comfortable and loved. Because I have four pups of my own at home, I do not offer pet sitting in my home. However, I am very comfortable caring for pets in your home, where they can stay in their familiar environment. I’m happy to keep your home tidy, follow your routines, and provide your pups with plenty of companionship, attention, and love while you’re away.

About: Ever since I was a little girl, I’ve had dogs in my life. From growing up with family labs to currently caring for my own black lab named Mae! I love giving dogs a life full of fun, adventure, and exercise—whether that’s walks, hikes, games, or just quality playtime. As a former collegiate athlete and current physical therapy student, I bring energy, patience, and knowledge of safe movement, which helps me care for both energetic pups and senior dogs alike. I value treating every dog like family and strive to make each visit engaging, safe, and full of love for your precious pup :) Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. As a physical therapy student completing much of my coursework remotely, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate walks, drop-in visits, and pet care throughout the week. I am often available on weekends and have availability during weekdays as well, including evenings. Being active and organized, I thoroughly enjoy incorporating pet care into my day and can provide dependable attention, exercise, and companionship for your four-legged family member When it comes to caring for dogs, I value giving them my full attention. From the moment I meet them I want to make sure we are getting outside and being active. I find so much joy in making sure their cup is filled whether that’s us hanging out or going on long walks:)

About: I've grown up caring for three dogs at once in a busy household, so I’m no stranger to managing multiple pets with love and attention. I’ve also worked at a dog daycare, gaining hands-on experience with dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I’m especially confident with dog walking and making sure every pup gets the care, exercise, and attention they need. I’m currently working part time at cub so I’ll need to schedule around that but other than that I’ll be free most of the time. I treat every pet like my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I follow your instructions closely and keep your home clean and secure.

About: Growing up on a farm I understand the connection animals give us. We had at least 3 dogs around us constantly. Their care and comfort is my number one priority. I have experience with reactive and timid dogs. As a young teenager I did 4H with my boarder collie. We competed in agility, rally’s, and basic obedience. My GSD and I worked through his reactivity to other dogs and people. I personally trained him to be the best boy he can be, and he earned his K9 good citizen. I love all types of personality’s, from teething puppies to seniors who just need some company. I excel in dog training, I love a good challenge. I currently work part time so I have a lot of time to spend with your four legged family members! I am available until late May! I thoroughly follow instructions for your pet, and the safety of you’re home. I understand that some dogs are timid, and that some dogs are reactive on walks. I will be sure to make my time with you’re pup comfortable and enjoyable for both of us.

Family friends, coworkers, and even travel agents come to me for puppy/animal care! Pet care fits in perfectly with my routine. I am very responsible when it comes to other people’s pets and am very flexible and available. In my home, someone is almost always around.

In my clients homes, I take time out of my day to spend time with their animals, and work according to the animals schedule, not mine.

About: I have owned and cared for many dogs all throughout my life. From smaller dogs to Great Danes and even helping birth, care for, and train multiple litters of puppies.

My yard does not have a fence but my dog enjoys being outside on a long leash and roaming around our yard. My dog has a very large crate fit for 2 dogs and I also have another separate (1 dog) crate.

About: I had a family dog until he passed when he was 16 years old that my family & I adopted when I 6 years old. I took over care for him in my teenage years, as we were attached at the hip.

My family has also owned a cat, a turtle and a fish! I have a fairly flexible schedule, so my days are open and welcome the addition of taking care of fur babies during the day from late morning to early evening!

“Thank you!!! Adryona is the best. Pups picked up her ‘vibe’ the minute she arrived and acted as though they had known her for years and years. And she’s a great photographer!”

About: Had dogs my whole life. Usually labs. But always enjoyed them more than humans 🤣. Recently had my dog of 15 years pass away and am just looking for some animal atttention! *Update: got a new golden doodle puppy! So as long as your dog is friendly they can play!
