Dog Walkers in Lewis Lake, MN

About: With a background as a veterinary assistant, I bring both medical know-how and a gentle touch to every pet I care for. I have plenty of experience working with anxious and nervous animals, using patience, calm energy, and lots of love to help them feel safe and at ease. Whether it’s playtime, medications, or just quiet company, I’m here to make your pets feel comfortable, cared for, and right at home. As a dog mom of two, taking care of pets is just part of my everyday life. From morning walks and messy mealtimes to those quiet cuddle moments at night, I’ve built my routine around keeping my dogs happy and healthy. It’s taught me a lot about patience, understanding animal behavior, and rolling with the unexpected — especially with anxious or high-energy pups. So when I care for someone else’s pet, it just feels like an extension of what I already love doing every day. When I care for a client’s pet, I treat them like one of my own. I stick to their routine, whether that means regular walks, feeding times, play, or just quiet company. I take time to understand their personality and any special needs, making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away.

About: Hello! I have had experience pet and dog sitting since I was 15. I have taken care of animals ranging from pigeons to bunnies to dogs and cats to horses. I have experience with old and young, as well as experience with animals needing medication. I personally have three cats and a XL dog, so I am comfortable with any size critter. I work at a school so I currently do not have work during the summer. I am available all days. There maybe some days where I am out and about, but I will still be available to check on them during the day and stay with them at night. I will not be available to bring them to my home, as we have a pretty crazy house with extra critters, however I am able to stay in my clients' homes. I can easily adjust to your pet's daily schedule — whether that be daily walks, medication, or scheduled meals. Staying in your home, I am also able to do things such as collect mail, water plants, and just care for your home as well as your pet.

About: I’ve spent years caring for my own dogs and raising animals, which has taught me patience, responsibility, and an understanding of different personalities and needs. I treat every pet like family, making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. What sets me apart is the genuine bond I build with animals and my dedication to their happiness, whether that means playtime, walks, or simply giving them the attention they deserve. Caring for pets is already a part of my daily routine. Between feeding, walking, playtime, and keeping up with my own dogs, I’m used to giving animals structure and attention every single day. Whether it’s early morning walks or evening walks, pets are always the center of my schedule. In my home, I make sure pets have a safe, comfortable space where they feel welcomed as part of the family. I stick to regular feeding schedules, provide plenty of playtime and walks, and give lots of love and attention. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to follow their routines as closely as possible, whether mealtime, walks, or bedtime, so pets feel secure and stress-free. My goal is to always create consistency, comfort, and trust.

About: I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life. I love animals, and I love being outside, no matter the weather! I’ll happily walk your furry friend! To me, the well-being of animals is only second to the well-being of people. There is ALWAYS time to care for our furry companions, and even more time to love them. I live on a farm, so my dogs have LOTS of room to run and play because I believe exercise is crucial to a dog’s well-being. I use harnesses rather than collars while they’re on their leash to prevent any pain or discomfort on their neck or throat. :)

About: I have raised several dogs from the time they were puppies. I have done obedience training with all of them. I truly enjoy the loyal companionship of a dog. I am currently on SSDI, so I am retired. I do have a karaoke DJ business, but that usually only takes me away one or two nights a month. I currently have a French bulldog who is fixed and he is very friendly with other dogs. I also have two cats, but I have the ability to separate them from the rest of the house.

About: I lived with 2 cats for a majority of my life. I have experience watching animals for family and friends, looking to meet new best friends. I am currently working full time and going to school part time to earn my master’s degree. Looking for a fun side job to keep life interesting. I am open to having the animals out in the open or crated when not around. Would love to have a yard to play with animals, but not opposed to going to local parks.

About: I have taken care of pets ever since I was 15. My family and friends rely on me to feed, water, and walk there pets. I have my Vet assistant certificate. I have 3+ year of experience in animal care. Let me know if your pet has special need requirementsthat I need to know about. I have delt with that type of stuff before. I am available on the weekends and week days, all the time. I am very flexible when it comes to taking care of your pets. I do have some stuff to do otherwise your pet gets my full attention and love. I cannot provide services in my home as my dogs are not friendly with other dogs. I do provide services in other people's homes if they would like, I will take dogs on car rides if nice out, will treat the dog like it is my own dog.

About: I am coparenting a 90 lb golden retriever and miss him so much when he’s away! He is not fond of new places, so I understand the importance of keeping your pets safe in your home while you are away. I have experience house and dog sitting for my sister and friends and I love walking and snuggling. I would be honored to take care of your little furry children! I work full time in a corporate setting in downtown Minneapolis, but I only go to the office twice a week. I have a fairly flexible schedule and would be available to work partial days from home as well. My typical work hours are 8:30am-5pm. I raised my now 6 year old golden retriever and cat, and am comfortable with all things puppy, kitten, teen, and adult related. I love going for walks and taking dogs to the park if they like to be social. I treat my own pets as my children and would love to dote on your babies in the same way!

“Abby does a great job!”

“Crystal was outstanding! My puppy took to her right away. She got a full walk in and was ready for a nap afterwards. I will 100percent be having Crystal do more walks in the future!”

About: I have a passionate and caring personality especially for animals. I'm well trained in meeting the needs of pets and have been pet sitting for family friends and people in my community for about 4 years now. I value patience and giving everyone the love they deserve. I am a part time online college student. I do occasionally gig work around Minneapolis but my schedule is very open on weekends and weekdays. If in a clients home I am flexible to whatever boundaries and guidelines they put in place. In my home we value a quiet and calm environment but both me and my brother are willing to play and make things fun for pets!

About: I can provide a safe quiet home for your pet to visit when you’re away. I work from home and spend the days with our almost 8 year old boxer mix, Aggie. We love taking walks to the park near our home and we have a small fenced in back yard with a privacy fence. Aggie gets along with almost every dog and will sometimes play. She can be pretty vocal when she plays but is otherwise super quiet. She’s a great role model for younger dogs :) I work from home so I am usually home with the pets for most of the day. We take daily walks when the weather is good. We have a large dog crate if your dog needs. Our yard is fenced in and dogs wouldn’t usually be home alone for more than a few hours.

About: I’ve always loved being around animals and have years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all kinds. I make sure to follow each pet’s routine so they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for.

I’m happy to provide dependable care and regular updates so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands. I work full-time during weekdays, but I’m available for pet care before work, after work, evenings, and weekends. If you prefer someone with your pets at all times, my wife works remotely and can step-in during work hours for that additional companionship and supervision. I work remotely, so I’m home most of the day and have the flexibility to give your pet attention, care, and playtime throughout my workday. I’m happy to care for your pet in the comfort of their own home, where they feel safe and secure. I follow your instructions closely and make sure your pet gets all the attention, care, and love they’re used to.

About: I grew up with dogs, so I’ve always had a soft spot for them. There’s just something about their loyalty, personality, and the way they become part of your life that I really love. I, myself, when just 6 years old had a poodle and the responsibility to care for him. And along my life I always proudly owned a dog and took care of friends’ dogs when they were out of town. We recently lost a member of our family, a gorgeous German Shepherd Husky, to old age and would love to give my extra pet love to an amazing dog! I have a hybrid and very flexible work schedule that allows me to be available and work from home almost always. I have a fenced in yard, great for multiple potty breaks and playing time. Caring for a pet comes down to consistently meeting their physical, emotional, and health needs. The exact details vary depending on the animal, of course! -I have a fenced yard, and pet gates in the house; -I love to go for walks with pets; -I love to cuddle and play with pets if that’s what they are into; -I feed them a balanced diet per owners’ instructions. Fresh water is always available. -I’d love to comb them if tools are provided from owners; -I provide lots of daily update pictures and/or videos; -And would be open to any reasonable requests owners might have.

About: Hello there! My partner Andrew and I share a true love of animals, as well as traveling, and over the past 11 years we have offered our services as pet sitters and care-givers as a way to pursue 2 passions at once! We like to see it as a win-win for us and you, as we have used this platform and others as a way to both earn, and save money, while having meaningful experiences along the way. Having both grown up with animals and then having our own, as well as both being the eldest sibling of large families, has given us a lot of genuine experience. We are definitely what you would call "naturals". Animals not only like us but feel safe and comfortable with us. Our reputation and references are something we have worked hard for and consider of the utmost value. We are grateful to have had the opportunity to do this professionally and have had a great experience here on Rover, as well as via word of mouth. We have recently returned to Minnesota where I am from and once again offering ourselves up as dog walkers and house/pet sitters! I know leaving not only your pet but your house takes a lot of trust and so I would love to do whatever I can to assure you they are both safe. As you can see we have glowing reviews on Rover, and additionally, tons of glowing reviews on airbnb which I can provide a link to if you send us a booking request. I can think of no better way than to prove we are what we are what we believe ourselves to be, something we pride ourselves on being able to say, and shows the effort we have put into each sit/stay to take care of animals and homes as if they were our own. Some of the other things we do for work and are passionate about are: music, food service, teaching Spanish, writing, and instruments, child-care, coaching, and various outdoor activities. Please feel free to ask any questions and thank you for reading. Heather We are both working from home so are able to devote a lot of time to any animals we may be caring for. We are also very flexible and able to adapt to changes in scheduling. We are not currently able to host pets in our home but are able to accommodate any needs you or your pet may have in order to be and feel safe.
