Dog Walking in Kingfield, Minneapolis, MN

“Breen is a wonderful, reliable, and trustworthy dog-walker. He has been walking our border terrier, Charlie, regularly for 10+ years. (He was walking two dogs for us but we lost Rocco to cancer in December 2021.) Breen loves dogs and dogs love Breen. It is the highlight of Charlie's day when Breen arrives. I am confident that Charlie is well cared for by Breen. He knows dog body language and behavior and can usually head off any trouble before it happens. Our dynamic duo often gave him a run for his money. We really appreciate Breen's dependable service and highly recommend him to care for your beloved dog.”

“Nyree was amazing, and I’d highly recommend her! She came every morning for a week to let my fur baby out of her kennel, give her breakfast, and take her for a quick morning walk. Leia absolutely looked forward to her mornings with Nyree, and I’m so grateful for the kind, thoughtful care she provided.”

“Launa is a gem. She is patient and understanding with my dog’s quirks ;) She has been reliable and available for repeat walks and I really appreciate that.”

“Jackson is a really invested dog walker. He’s so good with our pandemic pup who seems to love the attention and walks during the day with him now that we’re all back to work and school and the pup is home alone more often.”

“Xan is being great with Hannah, always on time and excellent commutations skills! She is giving Hannah enough exercise and love to keeping her happy and relax!”

“Aichon was great! She really understands dogs. Our dog was nervous during her first visit and she handled it really well, taking things slowly and building trust with him. He warmed up to her and everything went smoothly the rest of the week! Aichon was also very responsive and great with communication, sending updates and photos every day.”

“Alana has become part of my family!! She takes great care of my 70 pound hair ball. She is extremely communicative and always always goes above and beyond! Rita (my dog) loved her and when I come home from work I can tell she has been well taken care of. It gives me ease of mind knowing Rita is with her while I’m at work. c”

About: I’ve been helping with care and dog sitting for friends and neighbors for about ten years, especially for my sister’s cavaliers (pictured) when she goes on trips. I have a lot of experience walking more anxious/shy dogs, and have also wrangled some bigger aggressive pooches - so I know how to navigate a walk to avoid socialization when needed, and keep a tight grip on the leash. I just quit my corporate job, so my schedule is open! Particularly looking to schedule some day-time walks, but flexible on timing, and can potentially do overnights as well I like to defer to the dog’s temperament and let them initiate interactions, or offer treats to grease the wheels. Ideally I want to build a rapport with them to get in some playtime and cuddles to keep them emotionally engaged while their human is away

About: With over a decade of pet-care experience, Im well acclimated to all kinds of furry and non-furry friends. From age 10-17, I had my own dog, and watched dogs and cats across my neighborhood. I became familiar with walking multiple dogs at once, and cat care. During college, I worked at a non-profit animal rescue, where I learned skills ranging from raising puppies from birth to adoption to administrating vaccines and medications to dogs with complex medical needs. I worked with feral dogs, weaning mothers, and dogs with a wide range of behavioral needs. I’ve lived with both cats and dogs, so I’m also familiar with the quirks of existing in a home with your furry friends! For those who have unconventional pets, I’m always open to loving on them as well. I owned three pairs of rats throughout grade school and college, and even trained them for name recall. I am an animal lover at my core, and will be your best friends advocate while caring for them! I will be working part-time, so I have plenty of time to come play with and love on your pets! I am also very active, so am very open to hikes or daily adventures if you have high-energy dogs that need extra time. For smaller friends, I am open and able to bringing them into my home, but for cats and dogs, please plan to have me come to you! I am a huge advocate for meeting animals where they are. I will ask you questions about your pet’s personality, and ensure that I’m approaching them in a way that makes them safe and comfortable. Windows and doors are always shut and monitored for those who may have high flight risk pets. I deeply care about your pet’s safety during my stay, so please communicate any additional precautions when we are finalizing pet sitting details!

About: I've been a pet owner for as long as I can remember, somewhere around 3 years old. While I'm just now going pro, I've often been the one friends and family trust to take care of their animals when needed. I've been through almost every scenario with pets, from the amazing to the emergent. Your pets are safe in my care and they'll be glad they met me. I work for myself, so I'm generally really flexible schedule wise. If I schedule a service with you I will be there, guaranteed. I'm punctual and work hard. I have experience walking dogs of all ages and needs, and can supply medication if necessary. While I can't bring any animals into my home, I'll make sure that yours is respected and treat it like my own.

About: I raised my previous dog from birth until he passed away at 18, so I know firsthand what it takes to care for aging pups, including patience, gentleness, and attention to changes in behavior or mobility. He was also reactive, which taught me how to stay calm, aware, and adaptable on walks. Right now, I have two young dogs, a 1-year-old and an 8.5-month-old, so I’m fully in tune with the energy and structure puppies need, too. My older pup recently graduated from a life skills class. I actively practice basic training with them, so I understand how to reinforce good leash manners and positive behaviors. I treat every dog I care for like one of my own and always aim to give pet parents peace of mind while they’re away. I work full-time from home, so I’m currently available for dog walks on weeknights (5–8pm) and weekends (8am–8pm). If you’re looking for a reliable evening or weekend walker, I’d love to help! I love walking in my free time, and getting to do it with a doggo by my side is a major bonus. I’ve got two friendly pups at home, so if your dog could use some social time, I’m happy to bring one along for company!

“Becca will be our top choice sitter going forward! She was super responsive while we were away and then I came home to a happy and healthy dog.”

About: I’m an experienced dog foster and lifelong dog lover. I've cared for pups of all ages. We love tiny, energetic pups, as well as gentle seniors. We have a friendly dog who loves meeting new friends and always helps guests feel right at home. Our yard is fully fenced, giving your pup plenty of space to safely play, sniff, and relax outdoors. Let me know how I can make your dog feel at home. I currently work from home and am able to let the pups out any time they want to play in the yard or go potty. We go for walks 4-5 time a day so your dog will have lots of activity if that's their thing. We spent lots of time in our living room area and in the yard. If your pup likes a quiet area we have plenty of cozy areas to snuggle up. We are often at home and rarely away for long. We only use our back door which goes out to our fenced yard so if you have a runner, they'll be safe here.

About: I have been taking care of family dogs/cats since a young age. I love all animals and would treat yours like my own. My schedule is very flexible. I have availability at most times and days during the week. 50% custody of my son that is also an animal lover. Work from home for my main occupation. I will make sure to respect your space and care for your pets as thought they were my own. 15 years of contractor experience working in people's homes.

“Christina was extremely flexible with our plans. Would absolutely use her again for walks and sitting.”

About: I am a dedicated pet-person who has 25 years of experience caring for pets young and adult. On a 5-mile walk or just hanging out, I love every minute of it! I have three kitties myself and had a wonderful border collie who lived to 14 years. RIP, Spooker. I teach college online and have a very flexible schedule that allows me to provide care whenever needed. I'll be there for feedings, walks, care, and cuddling. When watching pets at your home, I will keep them on their routine and give them lots of attention so that when you return they are happy. I always get down on the floor and allow the pets to come to me. Your house will also be as clean as you left it!
