Dog Walking Loring Park

About: I’ve taken care of cats my whole life, from kittens to seniors, and since I was 12 I’ve watched my friends and neighbors dogs as well. I’ve given both cats and dogs medication as well as bottle fed them if they were too young for solid food. I have an incredibly flexible hybrid work schedule! Whatever you or your pets needs, I will be able to meet them without any work conflicts. You know your pet better than anyone. Whatever instructions you give me to keep them safe, happy, and healthy, I promise to follow exactly. I love animals and my schedule is very flexible, so whenever your needs are, I will do my absolute best to meet them!

About: Hi! my name Juliana. As an experienced pet caretaker, I have the knowledge and skills that make me the perfect choice for taking care of your pet! I have taken care of both family and friend’s pets ( cats and dogs) and I understand the importance of providing attentive and loving care to make sure they are comfortable and happy. As a Dachshund owner myself, I know how important it is to follow routines and keep in mind specific needs. You can trust that I will provide your furry friend/child with the same level of care and attention that I give my own. Currently my schedule is limited because I don’t work from home, except for Fridays. Therefore, I’m available Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays for walks and drop ins. I can easy walk your dog and provide the exercise they need around the North Loop / Downtown Minneapolis area. For cat owners, I can provide visits to make sure food and litter are taken care of. Additionally, I volunteer at Minneapolis Animal Care & Control with both cats and dogs, which has helped me to understand behaviors and how to manage difficult situations.

“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!!”

About: I have years of hands-on pet care experience, including caring for my own cat and providing babysitting for both dogs and cats. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, cleaning litter boxes, playtime, and following specific care routines. I’m patient, attentive, and love building trust with animals so they feel safe and comfortable. I treat every pet like family and always prioritize their well-being, safety, and happiness. I am available for part-time pet care in the evenings after 6 PM on weekdays due to my full-time work schedule. I am also available on weekends with more flexible hours. I do not have a car, so I focus on local clients and can provide dog walking and in-home pet care at the client’s residence only. I am not able to board pets in my home, but I am reliable, consistent, and committed to giving pets attentive and loving care during my visits. I provide pet care in my client’s home by following their established routines to keep pets comfortable and stress-free in their familiar environment. This includes feeding, providing fresh water, walking dogs, cleaning litter boxes, and engaging pets in play and companionship. I always follow owner instructions carefully, including any special dietary needs or medications. I focus on safety, patience, and building trust with each pet so they feel secure while their owner is away. I do not board pets in my home, but I am available for in-home visits and dog walking services only.

“Darwin is incredibly reliable, and they work very well with our pup Sage. We have been able to rest easy during the work day (and check our pet camera less!), because we know Sage is in good hands with Darwin. They have even taken some time during our booking to reinforce training with Sage!”

“Coordinating with Emerson for dog walks is easy. My dog, Jelly, loves Emerson and I have found him to be very reliable and caring with the dog.”

About: I am a very loving person who has ALWAYS adored animals. My first very pets were two kittens named Tiger and Amy - who were brother and sister - and ended up having a litter together. I also had a dog named Sunshine who was a very energetic golden retriever. I took her on walks around our neighborhood and to the park for fetch and frisby. Most recently my parents got a puppy named flowers who is now almost 2 years old. I fed him, watched him when my parents were gone, took him for walks and did some training with him. Animals get a nice feeling around me and warm up to me fairly quickly. I am open to all dog types. Much love.

About: I have both adopted and fostered young and senior dogs. The youngest dog I have fostered was 1 year old (Golden Retriever - 45 lbs) named Benny. The oldest dog I have cared for was my resident dog, Bubba (Black Lab/Husky Mix - 80 lbs) who I had for 4 years who recently passed away at 11. Dogs are my pride and joy! I work full time on the weekdays and am free on the weekends. I am available during the week sometimes after work. Willing to stay the weekend if needed. I treat dogs like I would my own. On walks I make sure I have everything we need before going out. I respect each pet and go with what they want to do. IE adhering to their boundaries. I am also great at following directions that the owner provides. I want all parties, pets, parents, and myself to feel comfortable.

“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 am an elementary school teacher on summer break so I have a very flexible schedule. My family has always had dogs, and I have a big chunky dog of my own whose name is Teo. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and temperament, I have gone through different training programs for my own dogs so I have picked up a few skills on working and training dogs. I love spending time with dogs and caring for them. I love to run and bike if you have a high energy dog who needs more than a walk to get some energy out. I look forward to caring for your pet! I am a teacher and during the summers I have time to give your pup plenty of attention. I am pretty active so I can take dogs for runs, hikes, or just sit in the yard with them. I can care for your pet in whatever way they feel most comfortable. Whether they need lots of stimulation or just a pal to sit next them for a while, I’m here to make sure your dog’s needs are met. I am on summer break so I have a very flexible schedule.

“Jessica did a wonderful job walking our high energy dog, Isabella! She was available for a meet and greet beforehand, has been great to communicate with, and our dog was very happy after the walk. We look forward to having Jessica walk Isa again!”

About: Hi! I am a life long dog lover and former dog mom of a sweet, rambunctious German shepherd mix who unfortunately passed from cancer in 2025. I’m not quite ready to bring another dog home but I miss having a pup around, so I’m excited to offer love, walks, snuggles, and care to yours like they’re my own. More About My Experience: I have had years of practice in caring for dogs of all ages, breeds, and sociability. In addition to raising my own dog, I have had an active role in raising and caring for 3 other dogs from puppyhood to adulthood. I am regularly entrusted by family, friends, and neighbors to feed, walk, play with, provide medication to, and stay overnights with their pets. I also have experience with dogs who have extra care needs such as medications, seizures, selective socialization, leash reactivity, and high prey drive. I am more than happy to learn the specifics of your dogs needs to give them the best care I can! I work remotely and typically have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide care as needed and in line with your dog’s regular routine throughout the day. A positive experience for both the dogs and the owners is of the utmost importance to me. I am happy to take pups on walks, to the dog park, or simply play with them at home! I’ll send picture/video updates regularly and will give your pup as much love as I can while also providing any specialized care that is needed.

“Nijah made the effort to clarify times that would work for the walk and saved us last minute. My dog Lady seemed enthusiastic after her visit !”

“I'm so glad that my pup, Cash, and I have Autumn. I was gone for a long time, and it meant a lot that Cash got extra mental stimulation on his walk because of Autumn's extra efforts to do a little training on the walk. She was also above and beyond helpful in tending to some of my particular requests and the logistics of the walk.”

About: I’ve grown up with pets and have had both cats and dogs for the last 20 years of my life. I love spending time outdoors and having a furry companion alongside my adventures. I believe that each animal has a unique personality and that they all have different needs and requirements that need to be met, which I am more than happy to meet. It is always a blast to get to know people’s pets and to see their personality come out even more over time and our bond and the trust between us grows. I am very responsible and am passionate about animal wellness. I will take care of your furry family as if they were my own. Let me know how I can help. :) My schedule is very flexible, so I can easily make time to come care for your pets in whatever way they need. From morning walks, to mid-day play/potty visits, I will happily care for your fur baby as if they were my own. I have experience with dogs and cats, and love getting to know their unique personality! I’m happy to care for them in the way that suits them best.

“Sydney has walked our dog, Gus, a few times now and he can be a bit hard to manage. He’s very excitable, reactive, and loves to jump and lunge at things that catch his eye. Sydney has done a great job of managing (all 70lbs of) him and keeping him safe! He is SO excited when he sees her walking up to our door, which makes me trust her even more.”
