Dog Walking Hopkins

“Dave was great!!! He was ready to step in and take care and take Oliver on a couple walks each day who is a 7 month old puppy that is super energetic and loving and thankfully persuaded with treats!!! We appreciated Dave’s help and will absolutely be booking with him again!”

“Kelly was great with my dog Brandy. Always on-time for appointments. Brandy would sit by a window waiting for Kelly to arrive, so I know Brandy enjoyed spending time with Kelly. I highly recommend Kelly for anyone needing a dog walker.”

“You can tell that Steven loves dogs, and loves walking them. Every time he returns my dog, he mentions something great that happened on a walk, whether it's a new trail he's discovered or seeing a deer. He's professional usually walks longer than 30 minutes. My dog can't wait to see him.”

About: Our family simply adores dogs. I personally have owned a dog for the majority of my life and have raised two puppies. My kids (14 and 12 y.o.) love dogs and dogs love them too. We have a very spacious fenced yard and my kids love playing with dogs and keeping them active in our backyard. We also take dogs for nightly walks. Our 7-year old (29 lbs) cockapoo Lily does great with dogs of her size or smaller, also with dogs that have moderate energy. She does not seem to feel comfortable with high energy dogs and also with dogs that are significantly bigger than her (hence we don't host dogs over 40 lbs). We don't crate (unless your pooch prefers it) and our guest dogs will sleep with us in bed (if they want). Your furry child will feel right at home with us as we will shower him/her with love and LOTS of cuddles and will treat him/her as part of our family 🐾❤️ I work mostly from home so I'm usually available to spend time with your dog giving them the love and attention they need. We currently have a dog of our own ( 7 y.o. cockapoo) who we care for daily. She is a very friendly dog. We have a fenced back yard and one dog of our own to keep your dog company. We also walk our dog on daily basis to give her extra exercise. My 14 and 12-year old kids love playing with the dogs.

About: I'm a lifelong dog lover, and over the past 5 years I've been dog-sitting for family and friends regularly. I have extensive experience with senior dogs, as well as some experience with rescues and puppies. I love taking dogs on long walks on the trails near my house and cuddling up while reading or watching a movie at home! I am a student taking online classes, so during the work week I am available for boarding, drop-ins, and walks during the day. I work in the evenings on the weekend, so I'm only available for overnight boarding and sitting during the week. I live in a quiet area with my parents, one of whom works from home during the week. Our dog passed a few months ago (she was 15!), so we're missing having a companion at home and have lots of love to give. I'm within a 5 minute walk to multiple parks and trails for walks. There is also a large yard, however it isn't fenced, so leashes are a must!

About: I’ve taken care of high-needs pets and am comfortable administering medicines. I’m very familiar with DM, seizure disorders, doing rehab for TPLO surgery for a dog, and other high needs. I enjoy being outdoors year-round and have open availability to care for your pet. I’d love to explore local parks and trails with your dogs! I’m currently our home’s manager and am home all day. My child is in daycare so I have open availability to love on your pets. I will use any leash/ harness requested to walk your dog, and I will pick up after them. I’m happy to provide potty breaks and playtime with your pets as well.

About: I’ve taken care of many different dogs for friends and families! I’m the first they call because they know how much I love it and I work from home so I am very flexible on my schedule! Also who doesn’t love a work companion or even a break to get away from work and take them on a walk! My roommates have a dog so I am around one all the time and I take him on walks when I am around and I work remote from home all week so I’m pretty much available all day. We get up and walk the dog every morning so it is a priority! I currently live with a 2 year old cattle dog mix that LOVES other dogs and is so friendly but I am also very comfortable going to a home to watch the dog.

About: I have been a dog / cat sitter for my friends, family and neighbors since I was 13. My family had both dogs and cats in the house when I was growing up. I love spending time with animals and getting to know their unique personalities. I especially enjoy taking dogs for walks and playing with them outside to help expend their energy. I currently work from home in a corporate position. I have plenty of free time and would love to spend some of it taking care of animals. Typically, I am staying over at the client’s home for the duration of their trip / vacation. The client will often have me over to their home prior to their departure to meet the animal(s) and go over their needs and any other special requests they may have. It is very important to me that the client feels safe entrusting me to stay in their home and take care of their pets.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all sizes, ages, breeds and personalities! I have experience with foster dogs and deaf dogs. I’ve taken care of multiple dogs at a time. I love puppies and old dogs and I’m excited to meet yours! I am open to house/dog sit, walking and drop ins on the weekends. On weekdays, after 4:30pm. I also work at Petsmart fulltime 6-8 hours. My services are flexible dependent on clients needs. I can assist with walking, letting dogs out in yards, feedings, and giving medications. Also, extra services like nail trimming and bath and brush outs, can be accommodated for a small fee.

About: My pet experience ranges from helping raising our 3 Rottweiler puppies growing up, to cats, guinea pigs, hermit crabs and more! Now with years of experience under my belt, I can proudly say I’ve helped with senior cats and dogs, all the way down to a 6 month old Chow Chow puppy! With training a rescue puppy of my own, you can garuntee your pet will be in safe hands! I’m currently working part time, and can block off my schedule as needed when I’m not seeing clients, so I’ll have plenty of time to give your pets some love! I very easily and thoroughly follow directions, with great attention to detail. This way, your pet can feel right at home, even while you’re away. If your pup loves dog friends, I have a 1 year old Shih Tzu mix who can hang with us :) Otherwise, I will give your pet all the one on one love they need!

About: 🐾🐾🐾I have experience with cats and dogs of all ages. I currently care for my 9yo cattle dog mix. 🐶🐶🐶Growing up, my family got a dog when I was 2. Ever since then, I enjoy being around all kinds of pets and animal companions! 🐐🐐🐐I hope to expand my experience into farm-sitting with a special interest in goats and sheep. ♥️♥️♥️ How does pet care fit into your daily or weekly routine? I currently have an open schedule besides school and babysitting! I get my dog out for walks everyday too. I usually care for pets at a client's home. Caring for the home and animal companions is a priority for me. Please let me know specific care needs in a message as you think of any.

About: My family has raised cat(s) and a Rottie. My last cat "Marco" has just went over the rainbow bridge. As a empty nester, I travel more now so need to fill my desire to be around animals through helping people take care of there fur babies. Hi! I'm excited to be back in Minnesota after recently moving home from Florida. Because of my move, I had stopped taking new clients for awhile and my rover reviews are a little bit aged for that reason. I am looking at reconnecting my past clients and meeting many new furry friends and their families! I'm a flight attendant, so my schedule varies, but I always keep my Rover calendar updated so you can easily se my availability. When I'm home, I love spending my time caring for pets and making sure they feel safe, loved and comfortable while you're away. One of my biggest strengths is having a wonderful support system. My dear friend of 30+ years is also a trusted Rover sitter, and we often help each other out with referrals, etc. when needed. It gives both of us extra flexibility and helps ensure the pets in our care always receive reliable, attentive service. Whether your pet needs walks, drop-in visits, overnight care, or just some extra love and attention, I'd be honored to care for them as i they were my own. I can't wait to work with both new and returning clients and build lasting relationships with you and your pet(s). I love helping people and animals. I know 1st hand how important it is to have someone you can trust with your furry family. I have a dependable vehicle and free time to assist people with your fur babies. I intentionally plan my schedule to ensure every pet gets the time, attention, and care they deserve. I prioritize consistency, safety, and communication. You will always receive updates and photos giving you the peace of mind while you are away.

“Patricia was awesome! prince loved her - would have her as a walker again :)”

About: Work-from-home sitter = more time with your pet, less time alone. We know leaving your pet takes trust, and we take that seriously. I (Kayla) personally handle all house sitting, drop-ins, and walks so you always know who’s caring for your pet. For boarding and daycare, my husband and I provide a calm, fully supervised home environment, one family at a time. With experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities, we tailor care to each pet’s routine and needs. Your pet won’t be left alone for more than 3–4 hours, and I’m available throughout the day for walks, playtime, and companionship — flexible to fit your schedule. We live in a townhome with multiple flights of stairs — great for active dogs, though may not be the best fit for seniors or pets with mobility limitations. Dogs are always securely leashed outdoors and never left unattended. Inside, the couch is fair game. We follow all feeding schedules, medication instructions, and house rules closely because consistency and peace of mind are the whole point. I’m available throughout the day for walks, drop-ins, playtime, and companionship. Your pet’s routine is my priority - I won’t leave them alone longer than you’re comfortable with, with a standard maximum of 3–4 hours. If your pet needs more frequent attention, just let me know, and I’m happy to tailor my schedule to fit. We want your pet to feel comfortable and at home while with us. We do not have a fenced yard but we provide structured walks, nearby trails, and access to a large dog park just a few blocks away (with owner approval). Safety is always our priority. Dogs are supervised, securely leashed outdoors, and never left unattended outside. Inside, they’re welcome to relax on the couch and settle in wherever they’re most comfortable. We carefully follow all feeding schedules, medication instructions, routines, and house rules you provide to ensure consistency and peace of mind while you’re away.

I will make sure to keep a harness/leash on at all times while outside, unless in a fenced in area like the backyard or a dog park. I will keep them reined in close to me while on walks to avoid ay possible altercations with other dogs. I will keep unsafe foods (grapes, chocolate, garlic, etc.) away from the pets.

My focus will be on your dog(s) needs and routine, and keeping them safe and happy in your home. I'm sorry I'm currently not able to care for your pets in my shared rental home.

I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and personalities, and I have plenty of hands, on experience with walking, feeding, bathing, playtime, making sure they feel safe and giving lots of attention. I’m also a dog owner myself of a golden retriever, so I understand how important it is to have someone you genuinely trust caring for your best My schedule is currently flexible as I'm in school, which gives me plenty of time to give your pet the attention they deserve. I’m available throughout the week and on weekends for walks, drop-ins, sitting, and other pet care needs! I love walking, I can do 1.5-3.5 miles in a day depending on what is good for your dog! Making sure they feel comfortable is most important while getting exercise no matter the weather. There's nothing I love more than dogs.

About: I have had dogs my whole life, small to big, puppy to senior, healthy and disabled. I love them all. I currently have 4 at home! I enjoy walking with dogs, playing on the floor, and snuggling. I'm available weeknights and weekends all day to do all that! I live meeting new dogs. I have experience with many different breeds of dogs and with different temperaments. I believe routine is important, as well as positive reinforcement. Affection and exercise to the dogs needs are important to keep them happy.
