About: I’m a college student who had the pleasure to work with the PAWS program at the University Of Minnesota which helps people meet animals safely. It helped me educate more people about how pets support mental health and wellbeing. My favorite thing in the world is hosting those angels in my residence. I’m currently taking classes mostly Monday and Wednesday morning but when i’m not in school i’m usually at home with the pups. I take a long walk every morning so i usually like to have a buddy to accompany me! I prefer to adjust to the owner’s style rather than doing my own way. I’ve learned that some pups can get overwhelmed with sudden changes to their environment and routine.

About: I’ve taken care of many different animals! I just moved to North Loop a month ago and as I look for a job I want to give all of my attention to as many animals as possible! I have always had a passion for pets and making sure they are given what they deserve! I have a lot of free time, therefore I am available most days. I will mark off the days that I am not. I am very excited to meet some amazing animals! I will make sure I follow any rules and guidelines you may request! I have a Great Pyrenees which weighs 110lbs and have no difficulty walking her!
“Karina was wonderful when I needed help last minute while sick - my dog, Ollie, absolutely loves her and would rush out the door to greet her. Super reliable and easy to work with too. Highly recommend!”


“Lauren is such a wonderful person! Very personable, great communication, and she took such great care of my dog Skylar. They went for an hour-long walk around my neighborhood. Skylar looked so happy and was perfectly tired from the exercise. Highly recommend Lauren and will definitely book again!”

“River is a very warm person with an obvious love for animals. We really appreciate the custom care they’ve given to our dog Rosco, and their attention to his high energy needs. Highly recommend!”

“Alana went above and beyond to take care of my dog RITA! Her communication was awesome and she updated me all day! She even reached out after her stay, just to check in! I feel like I have found thee BEST dog sitter in the cities!”

About: I will love your animals like they are my own. Have owned multiple dogs and cats and have fostered many dogs as well. My dogs have the best training possible and I have learned a great deal from trainers.. I respect the owners’ needs for their furry loved ones, and understand how much you miss them when you are away.. Currently, I am retired and available for drop by walks throughout the day.. I can also have the pups come to my home when needed. I live next to a beautiful park for walks, I have a built out basement for indoor exercise - lots of room. My own dog is a small chihuahua who can slowly get to know any new fur baby in his own way.
“Laura is an excellent dog walker! She took a preliminary walk with us to learn my dog’s habits and routines, and was great at communicating upcoming schedules. My dog was so happy to see her and walk with her each day and I got great updates. I would highly recommend Laura for dog walking or dog sitting.”

“Darwin is incredibly reliable, and they work very well with our pup Sage. We have been able to rest easy during the work day (and check our pet camera less!), because we know Sage is in good hands with Darwin. They have even taken some time during our booking to reinforce training with Sage!”


About: ***NEW SCHEDULE: Weekday Evenings after 6PM are free, overnights are fine, but I would be away for work. Weekends always free. Rates are negotiable, I’m reasonable. Thanks!*** - Love all animals like their my own; My favorite breed for dogs are Golden Retrievers and Labradors. Love the Golden and Labra Doodles as well! - Self-titled GOLDEN RETRIEVER SPECIALIST! I can not get enough of Goldens, I had three growing up: Duncan, Murray, and Henry. All had distinct personalities. Duncan thought he was a human. Murray is anxious, moody, and very goofy. Henry is energetic, attention obsessed, pathologically loyal, and can chase a tennis ball (on land or thrown into a lake) for HOURS. They inspired my love of dogs. - I can handle dogs of any size for walks/overnights, I've walked dogs as small as toy Italian Greyhounds and Shihtzus, all the way to Burmese Mountain Dogs and Great Danes. - Genuine, vigilant, and experienced walker and sitter. - Self-titled GOLDEN RETRIEVER SPECIALIST! I can not get enough of Goldens, I had three growing up: Duncan, Murray, and Henry. All had distinct personalities. Duncan thought he was a human. Murray is anxious, moody, and very goofy. Henry is energetic, attention obsessed, pathologically loyal, and can chase a tennis ball (on land or thrown into a lake) for HOURS. They inspired my love of dogs. - Experience primarily with dogs, many cats as well. - Pride myself on excellent communication and thoughtful updates. - Have experience caring for animals that need special love (Elderly, Separation Anxiety, Blind and or Deaf, Medication Dependent, Insulin Injections, and more!) - Will truly bond with your furry companions, providing insight in personality and temperament. - Historically do very well with dogs regardless of their “Male Stranger Danger”. - I take direction very well, and will consult with clients about any specific tasks they may need for their pets or their home (Such as bringing the mail in, watering plants, letting in maintenance or cleaning workers etc.) - As long as the dog is comfortable in the rain or snow, I’ll be the same. Have appropriate gear for rain or shine. I do work from home most days, which means I can give your dog a 15 minute walk every 2 hours so they can do their business as well as a 30 minute walk around 2pm to let them get some more energy out until the evening when I can give your dog a longer walk and all of my attention and love. I can have food placed out at anytime in the day regardless of me working. I have experience with scheduled insulin injections as well as long as the owner lays out specific times. I'm in a new apartment, but as far as safety goes anything that could be harmful to even an infant is stowed away. All medications would be locked in a cabinet in my bathroom which would be shut.
“Amber did an amazing job walking our dog while we were our of town, and for several days beforehand! Our girl is a reactive rescue, and Amber was so kind and calm with her, which made all the difference. Our dog happily went with Amber for each walk, which was amazing, and Amber even braved a snowstorm to take our girl out for her walkies! Amber was also so flexible with scheduling, which was a huge help. We’ll definitely keep working with Amber in the future.”

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong pet lover and proud dog mom to my Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, Scotch. Animals bring so much joy into my life, and there’s nothing I love more than giving them the care, cuddles, and attention they deserve. I have years of experience caring for both dogs and cats of all ages and personalities. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime adventures, or cozy snuggle sessions, I always adapt to their needs and routines so they feel completely comfortable. When you’re away, you can count on me to treat your furry family member like one of my own — safe, happy, and loved every step of the way. I can’t wait to be your pet’s new favorite friend! 🐾💛 Pet care is a natural part of my everyday life. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give your pet the attention they need — whether that’s daily walks, drop-in visits, or extended stays. I enjoy starting my mornings with fresh air and exercise, so walks fit perfectly into my day, and I’m equally happy to spend time playing, cuddling, or simply keeping your pet company. Weekends and evenings are just as open, so I can easily adjust to your pet’s routine to keep them happy and comfortable. When I care for pets in their home, I make it my priority to keep their routine as familiar and comfortable as possible. I follow your instructions closely — from feeding times and walks to favorite toys and cozy spots — so your pet feels safe and at ease. I provide plenty of love, playtime, and companionship, and I’m attentive to their needs and moods. I also keep your home tidy and secure, and I send regular updates so you can relax knowing your furry friend is in loving hands.
About: I grew up with cats, dogs, doves, horses, chickens, bunnies, ducks, and many other animals! I have a range of experience caring for these pets and making sure they know that they are a part of the family. As an adult, I have attended puppy training classes with my dog, and have volunteered at the humane society. I’m working part time right now, so my schedule has many openings! I am mostly available before 4pm on any day. I am an early riser, so I can do early mornings no problem! I have a lot of experience safely walking dogs in a city setting, and I know just how crafty animals can be when it comes to getting into things they shouldn’t. I will make sure your pet stays safe!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Downtown West
I loved having Jessica walk Rhys last week! Everything was easy and smooth -- on time, great communications, and a pleasure to talk with. Rhys was overjoyed to see Jessica come up the front walk each day, and came home satisfied. Couldn't ask for a better experience.

Kiah is great! This was our first time using someone to take care of our dog and we were in great hands. She put in time to understand our dogs personality and needs so he would be happy and cared for. Our dog was happy to be with her and was even playful, which he normally takes some time to do with new people. We are so happy to have her help and so is our dog!

Sydney is new to our pups but she handled them like a pro and they instantly took to her. She was on time and did a great job dealing with the nuances of access to home, their leashes, interaction with other dogs, cats that like to try to escape, etc. Thank you Sydney!

Abbey was fantastic to work with! She helped do daily walks for our pup while our regular dog walker was out of town for a couple months. She was wonderful to work with; communicative, professional, and fantastic with our dog. Our pup is a big and energetic puppy and can be challenging but she was great with him!!

He has walked my dog multiple times and has done an amazing job! He was super flexible the whole time and was able to adjust the walk time every time I had a change in schedule. He was also super good about communicating (running early, running a little late, etc.) and took multiple really cute pictures of my pup every time Jarrett walked him. My pup also seemed to really like him. I would definitely use him again!

Autumn is amazing! She has an intuitive sense of animals and knew exactly how to befriend our dog Paco, who can be initially wary of new people. He adores her and goes running to the door whenever she arrives. Autumn is incredibly focused and attentive and kind, and we (and Paco) are so grateful for her.
