Dog Walking in Lynnhurst, Minneapolis, MN

“Grace is so professional, and does above and beyond the required dog walking duties. She’s stepped in during off times, dropped off a “sample” to the vet’s office, and is giving my pup, needed training. She’s the best!”

“Nyree took amazing care of my fur baby and was very attentive. It’s hard to trust a stranger with your baby but Nyree made me feel very comfortable and at ease and I knew my pup was in good hands.”

“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.”

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 administer 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: 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!

“We just love having Carla come to the house for visits! I really look forward to her updates & truly love all of her photos & walk narrations she sends. I am so thankful for her consistent communication, reliability & flexibility! She’s the best, highly recommend for any care you need for your fur babes!”

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!

“Kate did a great job walking Keena; Keena was always super-excited to see her”

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: What you can expect when I watch or walk your dog: I have over 10 years of experience watching and walking dogs of all sizes, and have owned my own Yorkie mix for 4 years! I love spending time with dogs and will send frequent updates and will respond to all messages quickly. If possible, I prefer to meet you and your dog before our first walk/stay! I currently work full-time, but have the option to work from home as much as I would like. My schedule is very flexible so I will have plenty of time to play with and walk your pups! I live with my husband and our resident dog is a friendly, 20 pound Yorkie mix. We have a small fenced in yard for off leash plays and are also two blocks away from Lake Harriet. We have a spare room if your dog needs some chill time. If watching your pup at your home, I will keep them on their routine and give them lots of attention, potty breaks and will communicate with pictures and updates often!

About: I grew up with multiple dogs from golden retrievers to hound/lab mixes, so I have experience with different dog personalities and energy levels. In the past few years, I’ve gotten more experience pet sitting for friends including both dogs and cats and have really enjoyed it. I’m on summer break from medical school, so my schedule is fairly flexible which means I am able to cater to a variety of schedules that work best for your pet. My goal is for your pets to feel comfortable while you are away. I’m attentive to details and instructions you provide for any specific needs your pet has.

About: I have had dogs and cats in my life since i was born. i trained my dog since she was 10 weeks and she wound up having very good recall and other skills like “touch” and “kennel”. she crossed the rainbow bridge 2 years ago and i’ve been needing some dog time since. she was very reactive and anxious at times so i have a very firm grasp on dog body language, and how to make them feel safe and comfortable. i have experience with dogs of all shapes and sizes and am always happy to help with training and maintaining skills. I work night shift in the ER so depending on the day I’m either sleeping during the day or up later in the day. On my days off i’m usually free between 12pm and 11pm. On the days I work I’m free usually between 4pm and 9pm. I work every other weekend and alternating weekdays. I love making any pets feel comfortable and safe, and I do this by paying attention to their body language and the messages they’re sending me. I make sure my pets are well fed, well exercised, and feeling content with their living situation.

About: I’m an experienced pet lover with a calm, nurturing presence and a deep respect for animals. I share my life with Bernie, my red standard poodle, who’s part social butterfly, part therapy dog, and 100% good boy. He’s taught me how important patience, consistency, and playfulness are when it comes to animal care. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, house sitting, and even boarding depending on your pet’s needs. Whether your pup loves a long walk, needs medication, or just wants a cozy companion while you're away, I’m here to help. I’m dependable, communicative, and flexible—especially during the summer months. I take pride in treating every pet like family, creating a safe and loving environment where they can relax and thrive. I’ve worked with dogs of all ages, temperaments, and energy levels—and I’m happy to tailor my care to your pet’s unique personality. Let’s set up a meet-and-greet! I’d love to learn more about your furry friend and how I can support you both. Right now I have a flexible schedule, so I can plan my days around what your pet needswhether it’s a morning stroll, a midday check-in, or overnight company. I know how important it is to have someone you trust with your furry family member, and I don’t take that lightly. I treat every pet like they’re my own. I take caring for pets seriously, whether I’m coming to your home or possibly hosting. I currently focus on walks, drop-ins, and house sitting, where your pet stays comfortable in their familiar space. At home, I live with my red standard poodle, Bernie. He’s great with other dogs, but since I have a small one-bedroom apartment, I only consider boarding calm, dog-friendly pets on a case-by-case basis. I'm happy to talk it through and see if it’s a good fit!
