Dog Walkers in Dumfries, MN

About: My name is Emma. I've lived with and loved animals my whole life! I am currently a mom to a crazy little Westie Pom mix and a huge orange tabby cat. I live an active lifestyle so if you have a dog like mine with tons of energy who loves to run, I can run with them! If you need someone to walk/run, play with, feed, or just hangout with your pets, I would love to help! I work from home M-F and have a flexible schedule, so I can even work from your house if your fur babies just need company! I grew up with an escape artist dog, so I am very careful and conscious of safety. I am a pro at dog-proofing countertops and providing safe mental stimulation when leaving a pup alone!

“Destinee was responsive and took great care of Nemo and the house while we were out of town! Our dog loves to play with Destinee. We appreciated the updates she gave us during her stay. Would highly recommend her services.”

About: Hi there! My name is Kali, and I’ve been an animal lover my whole life. I grew up with dogs of all sizes and personalities, and they’ve always been a big part of my family. We also had a cat in the house, so I’m comfortable around both furry friends! Spending time with dogs is something I truly enjoy, whether it’s going for walks, playing in the yard, or just relaxing together. I’m patient, responsible, and always happy to match the energy level of your pup, whether they’re playful or more laid-back. I have experience with dogs of all ages, from puppies to senior dogs and I understand the different levels of care and attention each one needs. I’d love to meet your dog and make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away! Now through the end of August, I’m local in Winona and work remotely most days. I commute to La Crosse only on Wednesdays (7:30 AM – 3:30 PM), so I’m very available in Winona the rest of the week. Starting in September, I’ll be commuting to La Crosse Monday through Friday, and will be available for pet care after work hours. I’m also available some weekends, and I’ll always keep my availability updated here so you know exactly when I’m free. While I won’t be caring for pets in my own home, I take pride in providing attentive, respectful care in your pet’s home where they’re most comfortable and familiar with their surroundings. I’m happy to help with feeding, walks, playtime, crating, or anything else they need within reason. Your pet’s well-being is my top priority, and I’ll treat your home and animals with care and respect!

About: I have grown up taking care of Chow Chows! Friends and neighbors have also counted on me to look after there pets. Let me know if I can help you out as well! I'm currently working a part-time job so I have plenty of available time to look after your pets! My job depends on the weather but regardless I'll do my best to fit your schedule. I live in a pet friendly neighborhood with lots of room for excercise! However, depending on your pets personality they can also just lay around a comfortable yard.

About: My entire childhood my aunt who lived with us, bred toy poodles. So, caring for puppies to dogs is my specialty. From feeding to walks, snuggles and play, I do it all with love and care. Since having children, we have discussed fostering dogs and we found this would be the best way to love on some dogs and make an income as a stay-at-home mom of two. I am a stay-at-home mom, so we are available mostly all the time other than drop off and Pickup from school, and can move commitments around fairly easily. I have a fenced in yard, and two young children to run around and play with your fur baby, walk with them and help feed them. We live in a quiet neighborhood with a lot of running space along walking paths.

About: I have cared for many dogs over the years. I love taking our Mokes to meet other dogs and exercise areas to meet new pups! I am also comfortable administering medications, and have been a nurse for many years. I love taking our dog everywhere I go and your dog would be treated, just like my own! Throwing a ball and long walks are what every dog loves, so let me help you with your busy schedule! I’m currently working full time during the day, most weekdays. I am available evenings, on the weekends and most all holidays! I can be very flexible with last minute needs. I have one very friendly chocolate lab, that loves to have new playmates! I can also easily crate your pup, if that’s what you prefer. We love to take walks to the nearby park and play fetch. I also like to watch animals in their own environment if that is where they are most comfortable!

About: Hello! My name is Morgan, and I am 31 years old. I love animals and getting some fresh air, so I would enjoy the chance to walk your doggo, or drop in for a visit with your kitties! I have owned both dogs and cats myself, so I am comfortable with either pet. My current availability is completely open and flexible. I am not afraid of big dogs or large poos, haha! Please message me for a meet and greet! I have completely open availability and am flexible and willing to work with you on whatever your scheduling needs are.

About: I have grown up with dogs all my life and now have two of my own. I will be a great sitter because I have animal training experience and can work with behavior issues. I am a certified professional bird trainer and I am working towards becoming a certified dog trainer. I have also taken several animal training workshops! I believe in positive reinforcement training and building a trusting relationship with every animal I work with. Animal training with positive methods is very important to me and I look forward to working with you on any problems you may have with your dog or just continuing the good behavior your dog already has. I also have several enrichment ideas for any dogs that may seem bored or have too much energy. Have other pets at home? No problem! I have experience with cats, small mammals, parrots and raptors, and even a little experience with reptiles.

About: I can walk, doggy-sit during evenings and weekends. Prior military knows how difficult it is to trust others to care for your dog. Always a concern of mine when I had to go away for any period of time and so am empathetic to that type of worry and concerns. I can also offer overnights, my home or yours, and negotiable for longer periods. I grew up with dogs so am not intimidated by even the large types, but will need to overnight at your home if the dog is over 40lbs. I have a small female franchie that loves other dogs, cats and people. I work from home most days so can have your dog at my place while you work or are out. My frenchie goes out every 4-5 hours, working from home makes that more convenient. If your dog needs to go out more often it is no problem. My dog is also not allowed to have food constantly, she is fed 3 times a day and sometimes a treat or two, mainly to control her allergies. I have an apartment, the bedroom has carpet but the rest of the apartment does not so I keep my frenchie out of bedroom due to her allergies. If you have a dog with allergies I am familiar with medications and anything else you might need. I have 6 years of experience specific to the bully breed and 10 years or more with other breeds. I prefer that you can drop your dog off with me but can discuss if you need me to pick them up. I also can only take one animal at a time daily.

“My wife and I recently moved to red wing and have used Samantha as our go-to sitter/walker. She has been awesome! She’s punctual, responsive, and affordable. Not to mention great with the dogs! They are always happy to see her. We are very glad to have found Samantha and cannot recommend her enough.”

About: I have two dogs and two cats. I have raised two puppies and rescued MANY cats- I clean daily and all of my animals are up to date on everything and get their teeth brushed for bed time. I take pride in caring for your animal the way you would. I’ve loved animals ever since I was a little girl, and my day job allows me to work from home so it’s easy to care for animals with a large fenced in back yard. My animals love to play and I plan on building a dog washing station outside this summer. I have four animals, and a room dedicated to fosters, so everyday I take care of my two cats and two pups (had since kittens and puppies) and I have worked very hard to ensure they are all friends. Many may say this, but I do a great job reading animals. I’m not sure if it’s because I’ve fostered so many times or raised two kittens and puppies, but I pay attention to their feelings and needs. All of my animals follow a routine. My husband and I are both at home.

I love rewarding with treats for when animals do a good job going potty or doing tricks. I have also had reptiles and smaller animals that I would be willing to take care of along with the regular dog and cat pets. I have a good reputation for pet care with my own animals. I make all my animals a priority which means I’ll do the same for customers. I take the extra measures to care for all animals. I normally look over my dogs and cat daily to make sure nothing is going on with them. Keeping to their normal schedule with eating and potty habits.
