Dog Walkers in Dayton, MN

“Isabelle is so thoughtful with her communication before and after Winston’s walk. I can tell by the photos how excited he is to walk with her. Thank you Isabelle. We appreciate you very much!”

“Amber was a pleasure to work with. She communicated even minor updates, cared so much that she cleaned up a small excitement piddle on the floor, and other things she noticed as things to be aware of. She was kind enough to also move a delivered package indoors for us. We absolutely look forward to future care with Amber as the need arises.”

About: I may be new to Rover, but I’ve grown up around dogs and currently have a dog of my own, so I understand the patience, attention, and care pets need every day. I’ve also helped friends and family care for their dogs, including feeding, walking, playing, and making sure they feel comfortable while their owners are away. What makes me different is that I truly treat every dog like family and want them to feel safe, loved, and cared for, not just watched. Since I am not in school right now, I have a very flexible schedule throughout the week and weekends! I’d love to help care for your pets and make sure they feel comfortable and loved while you’re away. I provide care for pets in my client’s home so they can stay comfortable in a familiar environment and keep their normal routine. I make sure pets are fed on schedule, have fresh water, get plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and bathroom breaks, and I always try to make them feel safe and cared for while their owners are away. I also respect my client’s home and keep them updated with photos and messages for peace of mind.

“Amy was so informative and loving with our baby. I was traveling and got pictures of my baby while I was gone. It is hard to leave your baby but I trust Amy with our baby.”

About: Use my code to get $20 off your first booking with me - TRINIP09328 I have had animals in my life since I was little and I’m extremely passionate about making sure every animal’s life is lived to the greatest extent! I have taken care of neighbors, friends, and family’s animals growing up (and our own family pets) and just absolutely love getting to hangout and love on all types of animals! Pet care is something I genuinely enjoy and make time for in my weekly routine. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide reliable care, regular walks, feeding, playtime, and plenty of attention. I understand the importance of consistency for pets and do my best to maintain their normal routine while you’re away. Whether your pet needs an energetic play session or a calm companion, I’m happy to tailor my care to their individual needs. Although I don’t have a big, fenced in yard.. I love going on walks and being outdoors. I would love to bring your fur baby along with me! I am very cautious and aware of my surroundings at all times so I will be sure that when your pet is in my care, they are safe!

“Thank you so much for checking in on our fur babies! We appreciate what a good job you do and are always happy when you are available 😊”

“Andrea was fantastic! She was so responsive, on time, available at short notice, and loved my big fluffy dog! 100% recommend. Thankful we found someone so great.”

“Our sweet girl loved having Logan come and walk her every day while we were out of town. Even though my older kids were home, it gave me peace of mind having Logan check in on our sweet girl. The extra attention was greatly appreciated. The updates were helpful. I highly recommend hiring Logan.”

About: Hey everyone! My name is Audrey and I'm currently attending grad school for physical therapy. Over the years, I have done plenty of pet sitting gigs for friends but just recently downloaded Rover! Thought this would be a good way to make some cash on the side while I'm on that grad school grind since I love pets! I'm a born and raised Minnesotan so I'm not afraid to walk your pup outside in the freezing cold months of the year! Did dog agility and obedience competitions for years growing up as well! Grew up with my own cats and dogs and really don't have a favorite breed. Currently in between jobs so have no restricting schedule besides the days I've marked as unavailable. Would take your dog for daily walks and have plenty of time to play! Our home has a spacious 2 acre backyard and a large house to reside in. I am happy to house sit, take your dogs on walks, or do drop ins.

About: Hi! My name is Katelyn and I love working with all kinds of animals! I volunteer at the Animal Humane Society in Coon Rapids as a Animal Care Assistent where I walk, engage, entertain, and comfort dogs of all kinds and sizes twice a week. I have taken care of dogs, cats, bunnies and chickens my entire life. I just enjoy being able to give animals the entertainment, exercise and love that they deserve. I am currently a student-athlete at Northern Michigan University but am home for the summer in Elk River. I am available almost any day of the week and at almost any time to take care of your pet! My dog at home, Millie, is a very nervous dog overall so I am very patient and calm with her to make sure she is comfortable. I know when she wants to be left alone or when she wants to play or be pet. My cat is very independent but likes to be around people if he is not sleeping. He doesn’t love to be picked up or pet a lot so I just enjoy when he is present in the room.

“David and Amy have been walking Angel four the past several weeks. I've found them to be reliable, enthusiastic, and caring dog walkers, and feel confident that my dog Angel will be safe in their care while I'm at work. They leave detailed Rover cards following each visit that outline the walk taken, as well as a summary of Angel's activities. They also provide fabulous photos taken during each walk - several of which I plan to have framed!”

About: I currently have two pomskies, a russian blue, and a black cat. I also had two 80 lbs Weimaraners, a black cat, and a teddy bear hamster growing up as well as taking care of all the neighbors pets when they would go on vacation prior to starting Rover! I now have interacted with almost every size of dog and multiple cats through my services. - I was a dual-sport athlete in college where I did gymnastics and track, and I currently weight lift. I preface this because some pet owners in the past have said I appear to be a smaller girl but I am stronger than I look and have walked/taken care of big dogs and very high energy dogs😂 - My services include: •30 minute dog walks include a fun stroll around your neighborhood to give your pet some fresh air and exercise during the day. •30 minute drop-ins include potty breaks, feeding, playtime, and of course plenty of love to make sure your pet is comfortable while you’re away. You may book two per day! •I’m always open to any extra needs or modifying for your situation!! I’m currently in law school and have class mid-day from August to May. I have mornings and evenings/nights open for drop in visits and dog walking during these months. From May to August, I work very early mornings 5x a week. I’m free 2pm and onwards during the summer months for drop-ins and dog walking services. I also stop by prior to my 6am start time for work to do drop-in visits as well. Please don’t be afraid to reach out for anything at all! •I always allow meet-and-greets for a quick 10 minute appointment (free) prior to any drop-ins or walking services so that I’m no stranger to you or your pet before I stop by for the first service. This also allows us to establish what needs your pet may have and your expectations for me. These aren’t mandatory to be able to book with me, just solely a comfort thing! •I remember the way pet items were stored in your home and return them back to the way they were after I’m done using them. •I always message you and ask for permission prior to entering any other part of the house that’s not necessary to the service. This rarely happens, but for example: a dog I came to walk was sleeping in the master bedroom so I messaged the owner first prior to retrieving him for our walk😂

About: I have a real love and passion for all animals. I have special skills in diabetes care for my sisters elderly cat and I have trained my own pups (Shar pei, lab pit bull mix and chocolate lab). I am currently a stay at home dad looking to make some extra money. I have pretty open schedule Monday- Sunday starting at 8am I am available. I currently have a miniature schnauzer and I let her outside hooked up to a chain and I go on multiple long walks around our neighborhood. I could easily crate your dog if that is what you prefer. I do keep little Buttons crate over night but that is by Buttons preference (she just loves her crate) and she roams free during the day.

“We’re so grateful for Sarah! Good communication and great with Monte. We were out late, and it gave us peace of mind to know that Monte would be well taken care of. I would not hesitate to use Sarah‘s services again!”

About: I have been a Rover pet sitter since 2023. I will care for cats, small to medium dogs, and small animals. Cats are my speciality. I am also available for dog-walking and dog mid-day let-out. As for small animals, I have experience with guinea pigs, bunnies, and fish. If I haven't had experience with a type of small animal before, please give me very specific instructions and I will thoroughly research the animal and its care before the booking. In my lifetime, I have lived with five cats and four dogs, was the primary caregiver for two cats and my many fish, and helped to care for the other animals throughout their lifespans. Growing up, I attended three summers of horse camp at Camp Kici Yapi and also had one year of English riding lessons. As a young adult, I volunteered at the Animal Rescue League of New Hampshire. I have experience with administering tablet, liquid, topical, and eye drop medications, and have been vet-trained to give injected medication such as insulin. I also have experience with specialized diets and with various special needs, and have cared for animals while they were having medical issues. If your pet has some degree of aggression issues, please describe it in your message so I can better determine if I am qualified to care for your pet. Please note that Rover may tell you that I am not available on dates when I actually am if another client is pending a Meet and Greet for a booking with any of the same dates, even if there are no overlapping time slots. Pet sitting is now my full-time job. I have an open schedule and am available from 8am-9pm every day of the week. I am studying to become a translator and I have Japanese lessons three days a week in the evening, but the system has me book time slots every week that can vary, and usually I have enough notice from a client to book the lessons around my pet sitting schedule. However, if I am given shorter notice, I may not be able to move around the lesson times and may have to fulfill an evening visit at an altered time on a particular day. When I arrive for drop-in visits, I hold my supply bag in front of me as I enter the door to prevent cats from escaping. For evening visits, I may also leave a light on at the entrance as another measure against an escape. I store all keys in a designated bag and label them when necessary; I avoid opening the key bag inside the car, where keys could fall into difficult-to-reach places in the car. I maintain the cleanliness of the food and water dishes and litter box each day and clean up any accidents, vomit, or hairballs that I find. If I need to administer oral or topical medication to a shy cat, I will need you to close the doors to certain rooms in the house where the cat can get into more difficult hiding places, and may even need to keep the cat isolated to one room. I will handle old, frail animals more delicately, particularly if I need to grab them for a medication.
