Dog Walking in Diamond Lake, Minneapolis

“Breen is a wonderful, reliable, and trustworthy dog-walker. He has been walking our border terrier, Charlie, regularly for 10+ years. (He was walking two dogs for us but we lost Rocco to cancer in December 2021.) Breen loves dogs and dogs love Breen. It is the highlight of Charlie's day when Breen arrives. I am confident that Charlie is well cared for by Breen. He knows dog body language and behavior and can usually head off any trouble before it happens. Our dynamic duo often gave him a run for his money. We really appreciate Breen's dependable service and highly recommend him to care for your beloved dog.”

About: I’ve taken care of pets for family and friends for 4 years. I have two cats of my own named Gretchen and Danger. Whatever your pet needs I am ready to be calm and patient. I currently work remotely so I have plenty of time to adapt to any pets needs. Whether its an early morning, late night, or anything in between I am happy to be available. I know how to keep a cat safe home being cautious about anything a curious friend could do. Well-being is my top priority and I value being someone others can trust.

“Lydia is fantastic - she does a professional job with my pup who isn’t the easiest on the leash, and communication is always easy and timely. Can’t recommend her enough!”

About: I've had 22 years of experience living with and loving black labs in south Minneapolis. I can accommodate dogs of any age. I love to be outdoors and enjoy walking. My work week is full; however, I am fully available on the weekends to dote on your pup. I am a teacher. From mid-August to mid-June my weeks are full. My weekends are open. I'm available over holidays. I am also available throughout the summer. I have a small home with a fenced-in yard and a park within blocks. For the past twelve years, I had a dog, and we walked every day. I greatly miss my companion and would love to shower your dog with lots of love and care.

“Launa is a gem. She is patient and understanding with my dog’s quirks ;) She has been reliable and available for repeat walks and I really appreciate that.”

About: I have been around dogs and cats for my entire life! I helped to train our two current dogs. I am happy to go for walks, give them baths/other grooming needs, feed on time, and love 'em up!! I speak spanish, so I can communicate effectively with families/pet owners who primarily speak spanish. I am a teacher in Richfield. Animals are really special companions, like members of the family and deserve to be treated as so. Any animal that I have the opportunity to care for will be loved and treated very well. As a teacher, I have a structured daily routine with some flexibility around my working hours, so I can easily stop by for pet care visits in the late afternoon or early evening. On weekends and during school breaks, I have even more availability to spend quality time with your pets. Plus, I don’t work much during the summer, which means I can offer even more attention and flexible scheduling for your furry family members. Caring for animals is something I truly enjoy, and I make it a priority to fit pet care into my daily and weekly routine so your pets always feel loved and well cared for! When caring for pets in my home or my client’s home, I focus on providing a safe, comfortable, and engaging environment tailored to each pet’s needs. For pets in my client’s home, I follow all care instructions carefully, keeping up with their daily routines and making sure they have everything they need—fresh water, meals, exercise, and lots of attention. I make sure pets have plenty of space to relax, play, and feel at ease. I stick to their usual routines as closely as possible, including regular walks, feeding times, and play sessions. I also provide updates and photos to keep you informed and reassured while you’re away.

“Amanda has been wonderful with my dog and came through last minute to help with walks when I couldn’t do them. Kind, reliable, communicates well, and Henry is always happy to see her. I always know he’s in good hands!”

Alissa H.

“Wow what a great walk you squeezed into 30 minutes! Appreciate your communication and help! Would definitely reach out again.”

Megan M.

“Joanna was amazing and gave us so many updates on Chi-Chi while we were away. I was so happy she made time to meet us in advance and asked many questions to get to know Chi-Chi better. We came home to a very happy pup! 🐶 🐾 💕 Highly recommend 10/10”

About: Hello my name is Allison! I am deaf and fluent in American Sign Language. I also have the ability to lip read and speak (most of words). I am a dog lover! I adopted my dog, Hunter from Rochester, NY. I moved back here in Minnesota with my dog. He is 10 years old. A sweet and loving dog! I currently live in a house with fenced backyard for my dog to play and run around. I always make sure that dogs get sufficient attentions by playing with them, taking them out for their daily walks, feeding them, and letting them out to play in the backyard / have potty breaks. I definitely will play with your dogs with their favorite toys! My dog had ear infections before, I provided the specific meds / wipes to clean his ears. Let me know if your dogs have medical needs, I’d love to help out too! I usually work in the mornings from 8:00am to 5:30pm everyday from Monday to Thursday, 8am to 3:30pm on Fridays. Most of the times I will be home for the full time. I’m also mostly free on weekends - full time. For the summer time, I am mostly free from June to August! I’m off from the school year. I love to cuddle with dogs and give them good pets. They are one of my favorite animals. I always loved giving dogs many good belly rubs. They all loved it. Text is easiest for me to communicate with you guys. I’d also send the pictures of your dogs playing or doing something! I will get up early in the morning to let them go outside potty for the first thing and after that, I feed them their breakfast and treats. After that we all have free time by playing with toys or running / playing around in the backyard. I also take them out for a walk at anytime during the day time. I have a fenced backyard for your dogs to run and play with my dog and me! I’d always make sure to have them to have a lot of fun and safe at my home.

“Marissa is super reliable and was willing to be flexible to adjust to my work schedule. I never worried about the care Layla was receiving and she appeared to be very happy and pooped out by the time I got home”

About: I have been around animals my entire life. I also used to work at ADOGO, which offered full day doggy daycare and boarding. I adopted my own fur baby from 2019-2023 (I sadly had to put him down in December). I love dogs of all breeds and sizes, and I am a huge cat person too. I have helped train puppies up to 8 weeks old, and with my experience at ADOGO, I have given medication as needed to senior dogs. I have a full time job. I work Monday-Friday from 8:00am-5:00pm. However, I am willing to house sit any day during the week. I have an hour lunch, so in the past I have taken my lunch to go to said house and take out the dog and make sure their needs are met. I am usually completely free on weekends, so I can be at the house at all hours. I am very flexible with any specific needs that have to be met. When I took care of my dog, I would take him out 4 times a day (minimum), with 1-2 longer walks and feed him twice a day. I understand that each dog is different, and am willing to accommodate to their schedule.

About: I currently work at a doggy day care, and have lots of experience pet sitting. I have work with and cared for a variety of pets, but I have the most experience with Dogs, Cats, and my own 2 rabbits at home. I have experience with all breeds, sizes, ages, and pets with medical conditions. I have been trained to pay attention to behavior and listen to what your pet is trying to tell me. I always clean up after my self and your pet, and fallow all directions given. I focus my attention and energy on giving your pet the love and care it deserves. I have always loved animals and what sets me apart from others, is I put that love into the work that I do. I work a part time job at a doggy day care and the rest of my schedule is flexible! I always make time for furry friends! I always respect my clients home and space. I always clean up if needed, and follow all directions for your pet and the home. I can easily crate your pet and keep them in the approved areas. I can easily follow food schedules and portion out servings. If medication is needed, I always fallow the directions and ask questions if necessary. Your pet’s safety and your trust is my priority. I am tidy and clean and always double check everything. I will send updates as often as you want. I always bring a slip lead for emergencies, and extra doggy bags. I am always prepared and ready to go!
