Dog Walkers in Jakeville, MN

About: I’m an animal lover with 3 amazing dogs of my own. I’ve had dogs for 14 years and they’ve spent the whole time spoiled, and I’d love to do the same for yours! I have 10 acres of farmland and a large home with lots of space for your pet to roam and have fun and play! Your pet will be well cared for and loved, played with and treated as one of the family! I love all different breeds and sizes of dogs, so no matter what dog you have big or small they’ll be welcome with us! I’ve been around dogs of all sizes before, so I know how to cuddle the little ones and handle the big guys! I’m also an approved foster for a local rescue, so I’m used to having all kinds of furry friends coming in and out of my home. I have experience with shy animals and know how to help a scared pup settle in and feel safe. I hope you’ll trust me to care for your special furry friend! My husband and I work only a few days a week on opposite schedules, so we’re almost always available to be home playing and snuggling our furry friends! We love dogs, so it’s a priority in our days to spend time with them. I’m very comfortable caring for dogs on their level. I’ve worked with extremely under socialized animals, and also dogs that need to be kept separated from other animals, so I have the space to make sure every dog is comfortable during their stay.

About: I work with all kinds of breeds and behavioral levels involving large and small dogs. I have experience working with dogs that are trained working dogs and personal protection. I take my work very serious when it comes to safety. I am certified through animal behavioral college as a dog trainer along with certified in canine and equine massage therapy. I run my business from home so I am able to make my schedule very flexible. I am very easy to work with providing open communication if changes need to be made for my clients so they feel reassured choosing me to care for their pets. All pets must be up-to-date on vaccinations and a copy of vaccinations must be brought at time of appointment emergency contact lists must also be left with pets. I am also in Netwerk with local vet clinics in case of any emergencies. Any animals with special needs must be listed before time of drop off, and any specific dietary restrictions must be listed along with daily care, schedules set by owners with their pets to have during their care.

About: I have always loved animals! I am a very experienced care giver when it comes to animals. I worked as a manager at a dog boarding facility for almost two years. During that time I learned how to administer medications, handle special needs dogs/elderly dogs, how to see the warning signs from aggressive dogs, how to handle K9 unit dogs, and much more. Next to that I also have my certification in grooming and training from ABC (Animal Behavior College). Lastly I volunteer at a non-profit called PawPads. They train service dogs from diabetic alert dogs to parapoligic service dogs. I have been doing that for almost 5 years now and absolutely love it. I miss working with animals everyday and hope to be able to do this on a frequent, part time basis!

About: I have 2 kittens of my own, and I have grown up with dogs my whole life! I’ve also dog sat and walked for my family for a few years. I currently work full time 3 days a week and part time the other two. My schedule is completely flexible at the moment! Just let me know and we’ll make something work! :) I’m dependable, respectful, and trustworthy. I have experience and I make sure all the animals are walked, fed, played with, loved on, and given all the pettings!

About: Hi! My name is Rachel, and I’m based in the Saint Cloud area while attending the College of Saint Benedict. Caring for animals has always been a big part of my life. I have a sweet 1-year-old Maltese mix puppy named Crunch, and before him, I had another Maltese who was a beloved part of my family for nearly 12 years. I’m currently on a pre-vet track with the goal of attending veterinary school in the future. Over the years, friends and family have trusted me to care for their pets—whether it’s daily walks, feeding routines, playtime, or just keeping them company while they're away. I also volunteer at the local humane society, where I’ve gained valuable experience with dog walking and general animal care. On top of that, I’ve had the incredible opportunity to do veterinary work abroad, further strengthening my skills and passion for animal health and well-being. I have plenty of free time during the summer, which allows me to offer flexible and consistent care throughout the week—whether it’s walks, drop-ins, or overnight stays. During the school year, I’m still available most evenings and weekends for pet care. In a client’s home, I aim to keep your pet’s routine as normal as possible. I’ll make sure they get plenty of attention, regular walks, fresh water, and lots of play or cuddle time, depending on their needs and personality. I also take the time to follow any specific routines or instructions you provide.

About: ​I have been surrounded by dogs and cats my entire life, learning from a young age exactly what it takes to keep pets happy, safe, and comfortable. Whether your fur baby needs a high-energy walk, a strict feeding schedule followed, or just some dedicated cuddle time, I treat every animal as if they were my own. I'm incredibly attentive to their body language and daily routines to ensure they feel right at home. Im currently working a part time job at the hospital so I have plenty of time for your furry friends!! Im available at any time!! I live in an apartment with two of my own fur babies. I have a huge yard out front and back and live in a nice community area good for walking dogs. My apartment is very spacious for any animals coming over and my cats are very friendly and adapted to all types of animals.

About: When I was little I used to rescue dogs from the street and take them home to bathe them and feed them. My mom helped me find them a house or sometimes we stayed with them. I know the importance and respect they deserve. I work and take care of my house, currently I don't have any time to invest in anything other than that. That's why I'm currently quitting my job to try something more different. I will only walk dogs, I live in an apartment so for the moment no animals can enter. I apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.

About: I have had a dog since middle school. I had a standard poodle, and now my family has a golden retriever. I have lived with roommates in college with a chocolate lab and a rescue puppy. I am currently in my hometown for the summer months and looking to earn a little money before grad school. I love dogs and have a lot of experience with a multitude of different dogs due to family, roommates, and friends. I love to go on walks and understand the stress it causes owners to be away from home so long without being able to take their pet out to use the bathroom/walk. I would love to help in that regard! I will have respect for your home and dog’s/your safety. I prefer instructions so I can meet all your requests! Obviously there is a lot of trust needed for this type of work and I want to make sure to respect that.

About: Hello I'm Jillian! I have taken care of many different pets and have a couple of my own. Im very experienced! I own a dog and a horse but have other experience from many other farm animals and pets! I have taken care of dogs that needed medications such for diabetes and pain management. I’ve also taken care of newborn puppies. I’m also pretty flexible for payment and scheduling. Message me for any other questions! I work night shifts at a hospital so taking care of your pet during the day will be easily fit into my schedule and if needing any watching for night time we can work that around! I take care of my clients pets just like my own. Kept well fed and exercised. Multiple walk during the day for the younger ones and a calm relaxing day for the elders.

About: Since day one, I have always had a dog in my life. A cat in my adult years and a few other critters throughout the years. They are all family! All my dogs have always been a big part of my life and I care for them deeply. Family/Friends have trusted me to care for their pets when needed. I am always happy to lend a helping hand, or a lap to cuddle on, an arm to throw a ball, or even lacing up those tennis shoes for a walk. I currently have a “teenager” (6 year American Staffordshire Terrier… major cuddles, playful, very sensitive stomach) and recently our senior Luna past over the rainbow bridge. I am patient and have energy for any requirement you may need while your babies are in my care. Working from home, I am quite flexible most days. I am an early riser and stay up late. So feedings, playtime, bathroom breaks, etc is not an issue for me. We have 5 acres of unfenced land to run around in. I also have a very large fenced Garden the dogs are allowed to roam in for off leash fun, as well as a sizeable wrap around deck to chill on and soak up the sun. We are outdoor people, so are our dog(s), so if it’s nice, you will find us out and about. With our training they do well to stay within our property and listen well if running around the yard. Communicate if your dog(s) need to be leashed (also have a leash line setup between trees to enjoy the outdoors as well). I would hope in any environment that your pets are trained and do well in the space provided or within, please communicate any special concerns, etc. I do have experience with “shock” collars for more so the ‘tone’ button, as we have wildlife and woods surrounding our house, we use this to protect our dogs from our surroundings periodically throughout the year. So I am comfortable using this method to ensure your pups stay safe.

About: I have always had a love for dogs, ever since I was little. I will provide the best care for your dog, while making it comfortable and fun for them! I've had dogs and many other animals all my life and know exactly the care they require (including a hedgehog, bearded dragon, bunnies, and fish) I also raise mallard ducks, which has nothing to do with dogs, but I have doctored them up from some pretty gruesome injuries, as well as when my own puppies are injured, I make it my first priority to take special care of them and give them the love and tender care they need! I have a lot of experience with large dogs, and handle them very well, as well as small dogs. I work part time at the hospital, so I do work every third weekend and a couple days during the week. The days during the week that I work depend on if I worked that weekend or not. So check my calendar and it will be up to date as far as availability! I like to make the dogs (or cats) feel right at home. I want them to feel comfortable around me and safe. I will take very good care of them and make sure they have everything they need. We will make sure to have fun too!
