Dog Walking in Mandan

About: I'm a dedicated dog mom with years of experience caring for dogs of all ages and breeds while fostering shelter dogs and through my work as a trainer. I am currently available in the mornings before 9, mid-day lunch visits and after 6pm during my work days. While I do not offer boarding at this time I can stay with your pets overnight. I look forward to spending quality time with your pets and giving them the very best care while you are away! I treat every animal as an individual and take the time to get to know each one.

About: I’ve been around and loved dogs since as early as I can remember. I’ve owned and cared for a dog myself for over half my life and have experience in puppy training as well as senior dog care. I’ve worked as a kennel assistant at a dog boarding shelter and cared for a multitude of dogs. I understand how every dog is different and needs to be cared for in various ways depending on their needs. My love for animals continues to grow daily. I'm currently in school everyday from 8:30-2:30. After that I have many available hours of free time depending on what I have planned for that day. I’ve been unemployed for more than 3 years due to complications and unavailability and health complications, but now doing much better and having so much extra time on my hands. I thought that pet care would be a great fit for me right now and as it’s something I enjoy on a daily basis and have a passion for caring for animals. I have a fenced-in backyard with lots of room for them to run around and play, and/or lots of comfortable places for them to relax indoors. I will welcome any and every pet take them in and care for them to the best of my ability. making sure they’re getting the best care and love while they’re away from home. I know how hard it can be to trust your beloved pet with someone while you’re away but please trust and know I will care for them as I do my own, with love and respect until they’re back in your arms.

About: I've been around and taken care of many dogs since I was a kid! As an adult, I've had many friends, family members, and neighbors trust me to care for their pets! Right now, I work a seasonal job and I am available on Wednesday and Thursday. I'm also available on many evenings opposite those days, as well as some mornings. In My Home: Pets are treated like family! I provide a safe, cozy, and low-stress environment with lots of love, playtime, and attention. Walks are tailored to your dog’s energy level, and I stick to their routine as closely as possible—including feeding, meds, and bedtime preferences. I also offer quiet spaces for pets who need a little extra comfort or downtime. In Your Home: I respect your home and your pet’s routine. I keep things tidy and make sure your pet feels safe and loved in their own space. I stick to feeding schedules, provide enrichment, and make sure they get plenty of exercise, affection, and clean-up. I can also send regular updates so you know your pet is happy and doing great while you're away.

About: For the past eight years I have house/dog sat for my aunt (and her 2 German Short-hair Pointers), her daughter (and 2 labs and mini schnauzer) and my mom's college roommate (and her yellow lab). My aunt's two dogs have grown into seniors and in taking care of them on a fairly regular basis I have gotten comfortable administering medication, when necessary, and checking for unusual bumps, scratches,etc. I love playing with all sorts of dogs and am comfortable with daily brushing.

“Ashley was amazing. Punctual and easy to work with. She did great with our energetic puppy and the walks truly helped to wear her out. Next time we need a walker she’ll be the first person I reach out to.”

About: I’ve taken car of pets all my life as I have had 3 dogs each a different breed, with different personalities along with a cat, and fish! I am available to stop by and watch, play, and take care of your furry babies on the weekends when you are in need of a sitter. I take care of all animals as if they are my own, by playing, meeting their needs, and following whatever requirements you may have for your animal.

About: I’ve been a dedicated pet owner for 28 years, with experience caring for dogs and other animals, including those with IVDD, separation anxiety, and senior pets. This hands-on experience has taught me patience, compassion, and attentiveness. I’m committed to providing safe, tailored care that meets each pet’s unique needs. **To ensure safe handling and quality care, I focus on small dogs (25 lbs and under), which allows me to give each pup the attention and comfort they deserve. I’m available most days to shower your small dog with love and care during drop-in visits. For safety and the best care for your pup, I'm currently only handling dogs 25lbs and under. I’m flexible with timing and always make sure your pup feels happy, safe, and comfortable. If your pet needs a ride to the vet or groomer please feel free to ask! I can transport your small pups to their appointments! In my personal experience caring for my dachshund, Scarlett, we enjoy daily walks and playtime in a fenced area. She has scheduled medication and meal times, which has helped me develop strong skills in following routines and managing special needs with patience and attentiveness. I prioritize creating a calm, safe, and comfortable environment for every pet in their own home. During drop-in visits, I follow your routines closely to minimize stress and ensure your dog feels secure. I keep a watchful eye on their behavior and health, and I’m prepared to respond calmly to any emergencies. Your pet’s safety and trust are my top priorities, and I always communicate openly with you to keep you informed.

He’s also a JRT mix. He’s pretty high energy at the moment, but he gets along with all dogs very well, and he is up to date on all vaccines. I have experience caring for all sorts of pets. I was in 4-H dog club for 5 years as a teenager, where I was trained in many aspects of dog care and training. I also volunteered at a dog shelter for several years.

We are fully stocked with dog toys, bowls, leashes, and grooming supplies. My husband Alex works a very flexible schedule from his home office, and I work only 4 blocks away, so we are fully available to give your pets plenty of care and attention at all times of the day or night. I’m a big advocate of brain games and I love using Licki mats to help mentally stimulate them with frozen treats like goats milk and other natural, raw foods. All other treats are wholistic and without soy, corn, wheat, or byproducts. We have plenty of safe toys available of all different types. We only use plant based and natural cleaning products as well.

With my schedule it would be hard to have an animal of my own but I would love to hang with your fur babies in the mean time. Unfortunately I don't have a private yard or anything for animals - and the best option would be to host your animals at your home in the comfort of their own space!

I have had cats in my house ever since I was young and I received my first pet dog at a very young age as well. I love being outdoors and would always take my pets for walks on beautiful summer days and take them to the dog park as well so they can run and play with other dogs. My favorite thing about having pets is the love and companionship they provide for us. They know exactly how to put a smile on your face and brighten up your day! I’m working part-time this summer and I would love to take care of pets with the extra time I have! especially with the beautiful weather! I want to keep your fur baby safe and comfortable and I can do that by giving them the attention they need as well as allowing several breaks outside and time to play of course!

About: There has always been at least one dog in my family since before I was born. I am now 21 years old, and I have 3 dogs of my own. I have been walking and dog sitting for just over a year now, and I absolutely love it. I even hope to one day open my own walking/boarding/daycare company for dogs. But that probably won’t happen for a while, so for now I’m just trying to rack up as many practice hours as I possibly can, and learn about dogs as much as possible. There is something new to learn with every walk and every sitting job, and I would love to have the opportunity to learn about your dog and hang out with them!

About: I've had dogs my entire life and enjoy their company greatly. I have experience administering insulin and oral antibiotics.

I provide a very comfortable lifestyle for my pets and expect to deliver the same quality to yours. Every day, I do my best to show up for my animals, whether through affection, attention, or enrichment. Our animals only know the life and world we provide them, so we must show them the best version of it.

About: I have a very active 3 year old bernedoodle at home. I have been taking care of her needs like walking, feeding, and potty breaks. I love going for walks and playing with any type of dog.
