Dog Walking Crystal

About: Hello! My name is Andy, and I have many years of experience loving and taking care of all sorts of animals! Over the years, my family has had a variety of pets, including dogs, cats, reptiles, birds, fish, and bunnies—and we’ve also watched many, many more than that short-term. We are familiar with many types of animals and feel comfortable following your specific instructions for their care. I love animals of all kinds and will treat your pets lovingly with the care you expect and deserve. Spoiling your pet with a lot of love and personalized attention while keeping them safe and secure are my main goals as your pet sitter. I will be as active or relaxed as your dog needs- anything your dog requires for a safe and happy stay, I will gladly provide. I strive to always carefully follow your instructions. I am an animal advocate with extensive animal handlers and training experience. For many years, I have worked as an animal volunteer and foster parent for animals to be adopted. I have a soft spot for dogs of all kinds, and over the years have personally adopted spaniels, terriers, doodles, shepherds, and cats. I promise to treat your pet as if it is my own, play with it, give it tons of attention and love, and make sure it is fed and comfy while in my care. I have cared for my neighbors and friends pets for the past 30 years. I'm known by all as being a loving pet mom. I am looking forward to meeting you and your pet(s) soon! I am available daily for walks, drop-ins, and house sitting. I have experience training dogs and working with rescued animals. Our family dogs are rescues and fosters, and they were trained and cared for by me. They are now certified therapy animals. Also, I feel comfortable giving medications and caring for older animals or those with special needs. I have experience working with animals that need extra attention or care due to a rough past or neglect. As their foster mom, my dogs are rescues that came from neglectful situations and had to be nursed back to health. Both have undergone amazing transformations and are happy, healthy, loving, and playful now. I’ve taken care of many very small dogs and understand their specific needs intimately, as my family owns a number of small pets—and I’ve taken care of larger dogs and understand their needs and likes too, as I’ve supervised the maturation and training of several larger dogs. Speaking of training—I’m confident with pets of any level of training! In fact, if anything I’m something of a good influence on untrained animals, owing to my experience training animals over the years. Pets, especially clever pets, love to get a command correct and get a treat for it! As far as more “exotic” pets, I’m comfortable with a lot! I think animals are fascinating and love to meet new ones—even in elementary school I was one of the kids who took care of our class animals, including our snakes (a rainbow boa and a constrictor), and our iguana (aptly named “Iggy”)—so I’m not afraid of interesting animal friends! I’ll gladly watch your peafowl or your domesticated fox or your ferret, and I’ll take care of it like it was my own.

We would love to connect with you at a meet and greet or schedule a play date at a park to get to know you. I'm available every day of the week to walk, house sit, or drop-in on your pets. I enjoy playing with and photographing the animals I care for, giving treats, and reinforcing training. I all love animals and think of our pets as members of our family. We will treat your pet as if they are one of the family too, with much love, cuddles, and stimulating play! I am a photographer and used to work at a pet kennel, but recently moved, so I am available daily for any service you require. I will follow any instructions you leave very carefully, and will communicate with you multiple times daily to let you know how your pets are doing. My schedule is flexible and I'm ready to accommodate your pet care needs, and will send you photos of your happy pet as often as you like! I am currently working from home and am able to dedicate a lot of time to care for your pets!

“She has been a lifesaver for a rambunctious lab puppy and work from home fur parent! Highly recommend Jessica for all your pet walking needs!”

About: I have cared for animals since I was 10. Neighbors, friends and family have asked me to petsit, walk, bath and help care for their animals. I can care for puppies/kittens to seniors and everyone in-between. I rely on positive reinforcement for training. I can administer medications, trim nails and other care required. I have worked as a Vet Tech and currently I am in school to become a certified Vet Tech. I am currently in school with mostly online classes so I can seamlessly accommodate your pets care. I will send daily updates and/or photos if requested. I care for your pets from the comfort of your home giving you piece of mind while traveling while your pet will be less stressed.

“Amanda was very helpful and great at walking Gap! Will book with Amanda again.”

“My dog Owen always comes back tuckered out, thanks to Jessica. She has been on time, professional, and responsible with our dogs. Will for sure book again”

About: I've had dogs almost my entire life and have been taking care of the dogs of friends and family for the past 11 years. This ranges from absolute cuddle bug Yorkies to energetic labs. I work from 6-3:30 Sunday through Thursday, but making sure that the animals in my care have a regular schedule as best fits around that is key. First thing in the morning I'd be making sure the animals in my care have access to food and water and taken outside to do their business as applicable. Once I get home I recheck food and water needs and take care of their play and exercise needs. I have a fenced in yard and depending on the animal's needs, they can be crated or allowed to roam around the house. The specifics may vary depending on the type of pet and the owner's preferences or special instructions.

About: I love pets so much! I have two cats, Tommy and Rosie, and they’re the sweetest. I have been a preschool teacher and a house cleaner, so I’m not afraid of cleaning up any messes or accidents that may happen. I’m trustworthy and reliable because of those job experiences; my favorite part of cleaning houses was getting to know people’s pets! I also love creating a connection with pet parents. If I’m coming into your home, you and your pets become a part of my family. I’m also an actor, so if you ever want to know about shows that are happening, I’m a very good resource! It’s my goal to make sure your pets feel loved and nurtured even when you’re not at home. I create my own schedule, so I can be pretty flexible when I need to be. Mornings are my most available time, so let’s talk! I’ll follow any notes and instructions you give me, and if there’s anything I cannot do, I’ll let you know so we can work on a solution together. There may be some things I’m inexperienced in when looking after dogs(giving medication, etc) but if you show me what to do, I’m a fast learner!

“Coordinating with Emerson for dog walks is easy. My dog, Jelly, loves Emerson and I have found him to be very reliable and caring with the dog.”

About: Dogs have always been apart of my life, as I always had a dog growing up and at one point owned 5 dogs. To me having 5 dogs is no different than having 1, as long as you have enough love to go around. All they want to do is love you and make you happy, so how can you not love them in return. I have 3 dogs of my own right now and enjoy spending time with them. I probably spoil them as they know when I come home with bags that there is more than likely a treat or toy for them. I am available any day and time and have a fenced yard. I am reliable and trustworthy and would treat your dog with care, respect and love.

“Madilyn was really great! She communicated well and made scheduling and setting up our first walk with her super easy. She kept me updated and I can tell my pups enjoyed their walk with her. Thanks Madilyn!”

About: Hello, my name is Hanna! I live in Crystal, MN, and I’m a dedicated pet lover with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats. I’ve done many overnight stays and house-sitting gigs for families who trust me to keep their pets happy, safe, and well-loved. I’ve grown up with dogs and cats my whole life, and I currently share my home with my sweet 7-year-old cat, Kanga, who I adore coming home to every day. My own 3-year-old Golden Aussie has megaesophagus, so I’m very experienced with managing chronic conditions, administering medications (pills, liquids, you name it), and following special feeding routines. I also cared for my parents Golden who had epilepsy his whole life, so special-needs pups are no problem, I’m patient, attentive, and always put their comfort first. I have a very flexible weekday schedule right now, so I’m available for drop-ins, walks, occasional boarding, or longer stays during the week. Weekends can be a bit unpredictable, but I’m happy to discuss what works best for you and your pet! I’d love the chance to meet you and your furry family. Feel free to message me to set up a free Meet & Greet. I can’t wait to help care for your pets like they’re my own! I have a very flexible weekday schedule right now, so I’m available for drop-ins, walks, occasional boarding, or longer stays during the week. Weekends can be a bit unpredictable, but I’m happy to discuss what works best for you and your pet! I have a fully fenced in yard and an extremely friendly golden Aussie. I can take your dog on walks or let them run around in a yard, whatever is preferred. I can crate your pet if desired, but I love to cuddle up with them on the couch/ bed.

“Jessica was the dream to work with! She flexed with us when we were dealing with some unknown scheduling details, was so sweet with our quirky dogs, and was so responsive! We will reach out to her for all of our dog care needs in the future. You can feel confident your pups are in GREAT hands with her.”

“Very accommodating with our Bentley! My front desk workers at my apartment love her, as does Bentley!”

About: I love dogs, and would very much enjoy your dog’s companionship in my home, to join me on my daily walks in the neighborhood, an afternoon snooze, treats as allowed by you, and a lot of attention and pets. I am a laid-back person, easy going, relaxed, friendly and would enjoy spending time with your beloved pet. Life is wonderful when shared with a companion! Also, I especially enjoy senior dogs and only take one dog at a time, unless it’s two dogs from the same family. I am retired and home most of the time. My schedule is relaxed, and my attitude is to go-with-the-flow and enjoy the gifts each day brings. On occasion, I go to the grocery store or meet a friend for lunch, but most of the time I am home. My goal would be to do my best to help your dog feel comfortable in my home, and attend to your dog's needs and desires. I will keep your dog safe by making sure they don’t accidentally slip out the door, and I avoid other dogs on our walks. I will send you daily photo updates and a recap of the day's activities. Above all, your pet will be loved, well cared for, and safe.

“Kat is an amazing walker and sitter who is reliable and trustworthy. Her experience as a dog trainer is also amazing for her to handle my difficult dog. Always professional, on time, and sweet with my pup. Will keep using Kat!”

About: I provide calm, attentive care for pets of all ages and needs, including seniors and animals with chronic or complex medical conditions. My experience includes: • Senior pets and mobility‑limited animals • Chronic and debilitating conditions • Medication administration: oral, topical, and injections (IM, SQ, IV) • Strict and specialized diets • Household pets beyond dogs and cats: reptiles, amphibians, fish, insects, and birds (Drop‑In Visits only - please message me with your pet’s species and care needs) My focus is always on gentle handling, maintaining each pet’s normal routine, and creating a safe, low‑stress environment while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I don’t work outside the home due to health limitations, so caring for your pets, along with my own will be my only focus other than school. Your pets receive consistent attention, predictable routines, and a calm presence throughout the day. I do not offer boarding, but I’m happy to care for your pets in your home. I can take your dog for walks, play with them in your yard, or provide enrichment indoors. If needed, I can crate your dog safely and make crate time positive with enrichment and comfort items. My goal is always to follow your routine, so your pet feels secure.

About: I have had dogs in my life since I was born. I'm very comfortable and confident in giving them love and care! I've helped dog sit for my parents, friends & neighbors. I also had the amazing joy of raising a Boston Terrier to the blessed old age of 15. I helped train him as a puppy and in new ways once he lost his hearing and had memory loss in his senior years. I feel like it's a treat just having a fury presence in the house. My husband and I are both drawn to animals. I feel like they make the world a better place! They certainly add joy to mine! I work from home part-time, so that leaves me plenty of time to walk, play with and snuggle your pups! I'm available for boarding both weekdays and weekends. I have a nice size lot to get your dogs out whenever it is needed and also have many great parks & trails nearby for taking a nice long stroll. I am happy to have pets on furniture and sleep in a bed but also can give them the care they are used to (crate sleeping, dog bed, etc). Most important is that they feel comfortable!

About: I've had dogs my entire life and love spending time with them. I've been dogsitting for friends and family for many years, and jumping into giving rover a try! Your pets will enjoy an active and loving household, and we will love spending time with your furry family! I work from home, so I will be able to let your pups out for potty breaks during the day and have a longer lunchtime walk. I like to go to the dog park on evenings and weekends, either walking to the park near my house or driving to a bigger reserve if your dog is able to ride in the car. One to two evenings a week I have a sports league and may need to leave your dog at home for 2-4hours. I have a fenced backyard live a block from a park, and am walkable to a dog run. I dont allow dogs to sleep with me on my bed, but can accommodate crates or other pet beds.

“Great communication. So sweet with our dog!”

About: Hi Pet Parents! My husband Jake and I are excited to offer top of the line care to your pets. We have a house with a big yard and fence, and are happy to put it to good use. Your dogs will be allowed to make themselves feel right at home. We have a 6 year old dog, Koda who loves having a friend. We also have a 2 year old, so dogs must be okay with that! She loves puppies. We have experience training puppies, administering medication, and watching dogs of all ages and sizes. If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out. Otherwise, happy booking! :) I work from home and have the ability to take dogs on walks as often as they need. We have a toddler that is at daycare full time, so she’s only home evenings/weekends. We have a fenced in yard as well as a home with ADT security. Your pets are safe here and will feel right at home.
