Dog Walking Kenwood

About: I’ve grown up with dogs in my family home, spending lots of time taking care of them and pet sitting for my parents once I moved out. I love the opportunity to spend time with animals during a time in my life I’m not able to have one of my own! Pet sitting fits perfectly into my routine because I currently have a very flexible schedule. I can provide dependable care, attention, walks, feeding, and companionship whenever needed. I possess a strong attention to detail and love following a schedule, so I can ensure that everything will feel as normal as possible for your pet while you are away.

“Charles has been absolutely amazing with our leash & stranger reactive dog Ollie. He has been patient and accommodating with us and now Ollie is excited to see him when they go on walks!”

About: I've always been a pet lover. Did pet sitting as a pre-teen and teenager. I had a soul cat for 15 years and a soul dog for 13 years. I have 2 grand-pups who I often dog sit or just take for a day adventure. I've had guinea pigs, hampsters, fish, you name it. I pass you and your animal on the street don't be offended by me going straight to them first! Animals (all animals) seem to love me back too which I LOVE! I'm currently not working or occasionally working remote contract jobs so I have plenty of time to spend spoiling your furr baby! And spoil them I will!!!! I have a condo in Minneapolis near the Sculpture Garden and Loring park. I am on the first floor with a patio and yard so plenty of space to do their business or to take a great walk. My building is small and very pet friendly. I'm also comfortable traveling out to your home since I'm central to the area.

“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!”

About: I’ve had a deep love for animals for as long as I can remember, and caring for them has been a major part of my life since I was young. I attended summer camps through the Humane Society and the Minnesota Zoo, where I learned more about animal behavior, care, and enrichment from an early age. I’ve also always been surrounded by pets and have helped care for seven cats throughout my 20 years. Because of that, I’m very comfortable with feeding schedules, litter box maintenance, administering basic care, and recognizing when something seems off. In addition, I’ve been dog sitting, cat sitting, and dog walking since I was 10 years old, giving me experience with pets of different ages, sizes, and personalities. I put as much patience and attention into every animal as I can. Over the years, I’ve cared for senior dogs, energetic puppies, large breeds, and shy or nervous pets. I understand that every animal has their own routine, personality, and comfort level, and I always do my best to help them feel safe and secure while their owner is away. Whether that means sticking to a familiar routine, spending extra time playing, or simply offering a calm and reassuring presence, my goal is always to make your pet feel comfortable, loved, and well cared for while providing dependable care you can trust. I currently work part-time as a hostess, where I work four 5-hour shifts each week. Outside of those shifts, I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of availability for dog sitting, cat sitting, and dog walking. I'm happy to accommodate your pet's routine whenever possible and would be able to ensure they receive the time, attention, and care they deserve. In my own home, my cats are indoor cats, but I also let them safely enjoy supervised outdoor time, because they love watching the birds and squirrels in the yard. It's one of their favorite parts of the day, and I love seeing how much happiness it brings them. I have experience walking dogs on leash and, when appropriate and with the owner's permission, in safe off-leash areas. I'm also comfortable letting dogs outside in both fenced and unfenced yards while always following their usual routine and your instructions. Whether your pet loves to play, explore, or simply relax, I'll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for every step of the way. I'm also experienced with crate training and safely transporting pets in carriers, and I'll always prioritize your pet's comfort, safety, and well-being as if they were my own.

“Great dog walker! One of my dogs is very anxious around strangers and Hisham handled that really well. Timely communication, punctual, and positive & calm with the dogs. I will absolutely be recommending him to others.”

About: Experience with dogsitting, catsitting, and housesitting. I've provided pet/house care for families who have taken extended vacations (2-5 weeks). Love to be active and play with animals! I'm responsible and consistent and willing to help with extra tasks in your home (plant care, light cleaning, taking out trash, etc.). While I can't have your pet in my home, I am able and willing to stay overnight, drop-in for extended visits/walks, and/or do what your pet needs to be comfortable. I have years of experience nannying in people’s homes and I’m currently working as a speech therapist in school and hospital settings. I hope you’ll give me a chance to take care of your pet(s)! My work schedule varies, but I generally work 3-4 weekdays from around 8-4pm. I’m able to stop by before work, after work, weekends, and of course stay over if that works best! I always try to incorporate exercise and/play into the pet’s day if possible. I try to make sure animals feel safe and cared for, giving space if they need.

“Kayla was a life saver for me this past week! I typically work from home but was traveling for work - so Kayla came over during the workdays to take Barley for a walk. She was flexible, responsive, and loving towards my two-year-old golden. She even offered to bring Barley a raincoat when it was raining one day the days! I will definitely be using Kayla again on my next work trip!”

About: I’ve loved animals since I was a child. I went to horse camp and farm camp avidly every summer. I have taken care of cats essentially my whole life. Hi I am Jordan! I am a queer, artist and creative located here in the twin cities! I’m currently freelancing part-time, so I have plenty of time to play with your pets! I am open from Wednesday-Sunday, but if you need me to cat sit I am open to discussing. I currently do not have any pets living with me. I have a spacious one bedroom apartment. I work from home so I always have time to give your pets the time and attention they deserve. I live right next to Lake Bde Maka Ska and would love to take your dog for a walk around the lake!

“Jenna goes above and beyond to care for her client and their pet. Very attentive, accommodating, and respectful of changes and dedicated to making everyone happy. I have great respect for her and she always does a great job and is very transparent. Love having her support and attention to detail especially with my puppy. Means a lot! Can’t recommend a better dog walker/sitter!!”

“Daisy loves animals and is very kind. She does this work because she likes it not because she has to . She is easy to work with, responsible and trustworthy. You couldn’t ask for more.”

About: I work from home and attend university online as well. So I will be with my furry friends 24/7. I never really leave them alone. When I doggy sit, I've always thought of them as my own while they are around. While I have them, I get to play with them, walk around and get my walks in, enjoy Netflix on the couch, and more importantly naps and cuddles together! When I walk them, I am always aware of other dogs and I'm always protective of "my" dogs, unless I know for sure the other dog/s are super nice. I love a happy dog. My partner can tell you I cry easily when I see a suffering animal of any kind, especially dogs. So If I'm doggy sitting, I make sure they know love. I work from home so this would be a great opportunity for me to make extra money but to also have a dog around. My two cats, Felix and Oscar, past away recently (they had a great 20 years!) and I miss having a pet buddy around. I've been a regular dog sitter for my friends (shout out to Jake the shy but awesome boston terrier, Kingsley the lovable and kind pit bull and Gus Gus the instagram famous french bull dog!) So, I know this will be a great opportunity for me. I work from home and attend university online so I am home 24/7. Unless it's an emergency, I will be with your dog ALL the time I'm with them. I love and follow instructions very well and in detail pertaining to the dogs' specific care given to me. I ALWAYS send daily photos and messages with updates about the dogs.

“Ryan does a fantastic job caring for our pets (🐶😺) whenever we're away. He is trustworthy, communicative, and goes above and beyond to make sure our animals are happy and healthy.”

Brooke L.

“She has done wonderful with my fur baby. Very patient with great communication.”

“Vida seemed very happy and at least slightly tired (not an easy feat for an 8 month old vizsla!) when I got home. It looked like she had a good time with Laura, and I was happy that I was kept in the loop! We'll definitely be repeat customers.”
