Dog Walkers in Hilltop, MN

About: I’ve loved dogs ever since I was a little girl! About two years ago I started a business out of it watching friends and family’s dogs and loved it so much I made it my career! I work with dogs full time now and absolutely love it! I’m looking to spread my love for dogs in anyway I can! I know how to handle all breeds and sizes of dogs, as I’ve worked with close to all of them! And I even have extra experience with dog grooming at well! My full time job is working with dogs so I spend about 40 hours a week with them and i absolutely love it! I would say pet care is definitely a big part of my routine! I offer both pet care in my home and my clients home! I have a friendly dog of my own at home which could keep your pup great company, if your dog isn’t comfortable with new friends we have multiple levels and can accommodate that no problem! I have crates or beds owners choice as well as lots of toys and a big yard to play in! If pet parents are looking for an at home stay I’m more than comfortable with that as well! I do great following instructions as well as keeping your pup company at home!

About: I've been around dogs and cats my whole life. We had 2 dogs and 2 cats when I was growing up. I've been walking dogs since I was little. And I know all the dogs in my neighborhood on a first name basis. I work from home and generally have plenty of time throughout the day for walks and cuddles. My husband also loves helping out and playing with them. I have a big backyard that's mostly fenced in (each of my surrounding neighbors have fences). There's plenty of room throughout my entire house for your little baby to make themselves at home

“Anaiah has been an incredible dog walker for our two dogs. She's extremely reliable, visiting them twice a day, two times a week. We’ve heard from our apartment building staff that she is highly professional and a joy to have around. My partner and I have found her to be a very friendly and kind person who takes a sincere interest in our puppy's training. Her dedication is clear in how she ensures our dogs get the perfect mix of playtime, potty breaks, and walks. She truly goes above and beyond for our pets, and we couldn't recommend her more highly.”

Caroline H.

“Highly recommend! Although our dog was nervous at first, Nate spent extra time getting our puppy to trust him. They had a wonderful walk together. We would book again!”

About: I have 23 years of pet ownership experience (cats, reptiles, and a simple fish tank). I also have a bit of volunteer experience training service dogs and have taken care of friends' pets while they're away. I work my other job from home and determine my own hours, so my schedule is generally very flexible. I have a weekday evening commitment a couple times a week, but I can easily work around that two hour block of time. I love animals and will do everything I can to take care of yours as if they're my own. Let's discuss medical needs before booking, and I will make sure I have your vet's information in case of emergencies. I require a meet & greet for first time bookings. This is a complimentary visit to meet your animals, learn the routines, and ask each other any questions we need to make sure they get the best care.

About: Hi there! I’ve spent years caring for dogs and cats, and I also worked with a pet-sitting company for two years, which gave me lots of hands-on experience with pets of all personalities and needs. I can’t wait to meet your fur baby and give them the same love and attention I give my own. If you have any questions at all, I’m just a message away. Excited to connect! I work Mon-Friday at my full-time job but do have a lot of flexibility during the work week/weekend. Just let me know what works for you and I will adjust my schedule! I’m very patient and attentive to your pet’s individual needs and comfort level, and I always adjust my approach to meet them where they are. I go above and beyond to ensure your fur baby receives the care, attention, and respect they deserve.

“Ryan did a great job walking Parker, often going over the allotted time. The little blurbs about how it went and the photos were much appreciated. It’s comforting to know that Parker is in capable hands.”

About: Caring for dogs since age 10, I grew up fostering pets and have experience with dogs, cats, and different personalities, providing loving, attentive, reliable care. I am available for Rover pet care services on most days of the week with a flexible and reliable routine. I can provide care in the mornings, mid-day, and evenings from Monday through Tuesday and Thursday through Sunday, making it easy to meet pets’ feeding, exercise, and companionship needs throughout the day. On Wednesdays, I am available in the morning and evening but unavailable during the afternoon, so care on that day would be adjusted to ensure pets receive attention before and after that time. I prioritize safe, respectful, and reliable care when looking after pets in their owner’s home. I carefully follow all instructions provided, including feeding schedules, portion sizes, medications, and daily routines, to ensure pets feel comfortable and stress-free while their owners are away. I also take great care to keep the home secure by locking doors, monitoring pets closely, and preventing any potential escape or hazards. Cleanliness is important to me, so I maintain tidy feeding areas, litter boxes, and living spaces while ensuring anything unsafe is kept out of reach. I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and well-being, watching for any signs of stress or illness and keeping owners updated with regular communication. Above all, I respect each home and its rules, providing a calm, safe, and loving environment so pets can feel happy and secure in their familiar space.

About: I bring a calm energy and genuine love for each and every dog especially when I have a very hyper/social pug at home. I’m very patient, which helps especially shy or anxious ones—feel relaxed and secure. I focus on routines, attentive to behavior, and keeping your pets comfortable. I’m reliable, communicative, and committed to providing loving, consistent care that pet owners can trust. Since moving to Minneapolis and currently having some free time. I have dedicated my time/availability to pet care and sitting at any day and time! For clients home I provide consistent, attentive pet sitting by following their normal routine as closely as possible. This includes feeding on schedule, daily walks or litter box cleaning, playtime, and companionship to keep pets calm and comfortable in their own environment. I also administer medication if needed, monitor behavior for any changes, and ensure water bowls are always fresh and full. I keep the home tidy by cleaning up after pets and respecting your space. Regular updates with photos and messages help keep owners reassured while they’re away.

About: I love dogs, no matter the size, age, or breed, I am determined to be your dogs new best friend! I've been dog sitting for a few years now within my neighborhood, but I started doing it professionally this year. I've always loved animals, so getting to spend time with your beloved pets is such a privilege! I am currently a college student, but I do online classes so the majority of my time is devoted to dogs. I am committed to providing personalized, and loving care around the clock. While your pets are here, I try to maintain their home schedules as much as possible, for example, if they eat at a certain time At home, that's the time they'll eat here. I've noticed that it helps ease the transition between my home and yours. To them, my home is just an extension of their home. I also have experience with senior dogs, puppies, and dogs who may be recovering from illnesses or surgeries. I can administer oral or topical medications and provide cpr if it were ever necessary. If your dog has specific or specialized needs, please let me know and I will ensure I work with you and them to provide the best care possible. My schedule completely revolves around the dogs. As I've mentioned I do online classes so I can adjust my schedule to the needs of your dog. I am very flexible with pick up and drop off times as well. You are always free to adjust times with no extra charge, just send me a message and we'll work out the best time for you. I also do not charge in situations such as a missed flight, illness, or other unforseen circumstances that may require your dog to be in my care for a little longer. My main goal is to always treat your dogs like my own! Everyday I ensure to tell your dogs how much I love them and I try to spend as much time with them as possible. I also have a large fenced in yard where your dog can run and play, during the summer I usually hangout outside with the dogs for a good part of the day. If your dog is social, my dogs love to play and socialize with yours. I have a Golden Retriever and a Havapoo, they're both neutered and very friendly, and Rex my golden is very gentle with smaller dogs. If your dogs prefer to be on their own, I can do staggered outside time and keep them separate, no problem! While we're inside the dogs will usually walk around the house with me, either in my room or following whatever I'm doing. If for some reason they need to be in their own space or if it could be unsafe for them to do that, they will be in the laundry room at times like at night when I cannot fully keep my eyes on them.

About: I love dogs and promise to love your pet the way you do, with TLC. I recently lost my pets and understand the importance of good care for your dog. I will do my best to accommodate any needs you have and care for your pet as well as you would. I love to baby dogs and give them lots of kisses. I have a fenced in yard and one dog to keep your dog company. I can also create them if you would like me to.

About: I’ve taken in many animals in need and got them supplies and environments they needed. I’ve taken care of cats, dogs, bearded dragons, sugar gliders, turtles, and snakes in my past. I currently have two cats and one dog. I work from home so I can make some times others can’t due to working out of the home. I’m not always busy on the weekends and can help take care of your fur/non fur babies. Water, walks, bathroom needs, feeding, and some medicine applications. I like to give lots of cuddles to animas who want it and I typically leave shy animas alone unless I am approached. Always start with hand sniffs before applying pets.

About: I’ve been around animals all my life, including horses and cows so it’s safe to say I am comfortable with pets of all kinds.

A few more things: -Im comfortable helping new puppies/kittens/adoptees learn any house rules and practice manners with positive reinforcement. -Im capable of administering medication with proper instructions. -Im capable of assisting elderly and/or disabled pets with a gentle touch Please reach out with any questions!

I’d like to take Sundays for myself so I’m not typically available, but I’m open to making special exceptions in an emergency so please reach out if needed. Your pets safety, and comfort is my top priority. I will always strive to not only meet your pets needs but make our time together something your pet looks forward to!

About: I’ve always had a dog around growing up, and I have had several cats, fish, even mice. I have experience with big dogs (I had a 12 yr. old Great Pyrenees!) and small. I have been a regular sitter for several families, pet sitting for weeks at a time. I’d love to meet your furry friend! I walk every day and love company from pets! I like evening walks the best, but I can accommodate and be super flexible. I am flexible with house drop ins or sitting. I am unable to allow pets in my home since it is a shared space. I have been house & pet sitting for friends and family for years. I’m a rule follower and pay attention to small details of care!
