Dog Walking in Maplewood

“Xinia has been great with my dog! She shows up on time is very kind to my Frenchie Harriet and even gets her stubborn doggie butt to go on a walk with her. Harriet is usually difficult to walk for strangers as she just stops and acts stubborn. The last time Xinia walked her Harriet was excited to see her for a walk! This is has been wonderful for me since I can't walk her for a while as I just had foot surgery.”

“Erin was a life saver this week! With my husband out of town for a week and me with my hands full with a three year old and baby, getting out to walk our energetic and LOUD husky was going to be a challenge. Erin was always right on time and such a great communicator. I liked and trusted her immediately and Aurora Dog warmed up to her right away as well. She started waiting at the door for her in the morning. Thank you so much Erin!”

About: I've taken care of dogs from puppies to seniors. I can help with basic training and manners, as well as lots of "walkies" and couch time! Whatever your fur baby prefers, they will be loved by my family and I. I currently work from home, so I am available to your babies 'round the clock. If they need to be let out at specific times or take timely medications, I am available for that as well! I have a fenced yard with a very friendly male, beagle mix to keep your dogs company. I can also crate or separate easily if necessary! I can come to take them for a walk or let them out, no matter the Minnesota weather! I can provide pictures/videos, and updates as often as you'd like. They will be loved by family and I, and treated like one of our pack!

“We came home to a very happy pup! Loved seeing the photos of Piper during the walk!”

About: Ever since I can remember I've always had a dog in my house, all different kinds. My own, and some of my parents fostered or took in temporarily from friends. I'm ready to walk, run, play, or nap with your pupper or kitty! Some of my favorite things are walks, fetch with a ball, and blowing bubbles. I have a dog named Wheezer and a cat named Titan. I'm so excited to meet you and your furry family members, thank you so much for your consideration! I am currently self employed in theatre (in the process of creating my own company) and have lots of spare time, especially during the day, to help take care of your pets! I have a high functioning car, and am ready to travel to you and your pet and/or being them to their favorite park! I live in an apartment, so my current favorite way to help out is to come to you and your furry friend!

“Carolyn is absolutely wonderful - treats my dog as if she were her own. My dog loves her daily walk with Carolyn. I especially appreciate how she takes into consideration the age and special needs of my dog. Thank you for everything Carolyn!!!”

About: I have been caring for pets since I was a teenager. From my animals on my parents farm to dog and cat sitting for friends and family, I have a wide range of experience with animals of all ages and energy levels. Having owned two German Short Hair Pointers, I am great with big high energy dogs. I am a graduate student with a flexible schedule. When I am not doing school work, I am usually with friends or doing something outdoors. I am very gentle and loving when it comes to animals. Being raised on a farm I learned how to interact with all kinds of animals. From angry steers to sweet ducklings to very hyper puppies, I know how to manage all kinds of critters. I am very affectionate and playful with even tempered animals, but I can also coexist peacefully with more reactive animals.

About: I have had dogs and cats always! I would love to care for yours too! I have experience with puppies to seniors to care for as family! I also have given medication and shots to my fur babies I am flexible with my schedule and can cater to your pets needs while your away to make them as confortable as possible. Would love to pamper your fur babies! I would love to come to your house where they are most at home and comfortable I will give them love and attention while your away!

About: I have grown up with animals of all shapes and sizes. From mice, to baby goats and deer. Wisconsin girl so all animals are friends to me! Even the odd ones. I have full availability at the moment as I am inbetween jobs. I can be there whenever you and your pet(s) need me! Whether it’s a morning walk or an evening feeding. A list of any extra important information would be preferred but I am able to follow proper care instructions for any type of care as long as it’s provided / mentioned! Some pets require more attention than others and that’s completely okay! As long as you let me know I will be able to provide the proper care for your loved one.

“Leann was great! Our pup had surgery and she was extra cautious with him. Asked questions. She truly cares and was a great help for us! Thank you! Highly recommend her and she'll be my first request in the future!!”

About: I’ve watched dogs my whole life, my family and friends rely on me and trust me watching their animals when they are away from home I’m a senior in highschool about to graduate soon in June. But my school schedule is 8am-11:45 or 8am-1:35pm on weekdays. But next quarter my schedule changes to 8am-11:45. When caring for pets in a client’s home, my top priority is maintaining their familiar routine to minimize stress. I ensure the home remains secure and tidy, double-checking locks and gates during every visit. I strictly follow all house rules, from designated walk routes to feeding areas, and provide frequent photo updates so owners feel connected. By staying in their natural environment, I can provide personalized attention while ensuring the pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved in the space they know best.

About: From the time I was four years old, I picked out my best friend. My dog Maggie lived with us for 17 years and shaped my life for the better. From 2019-2023, I became an auntie to my brother's dogs, Gunner and Cannon. My brother worked usually from 7am to 4pm or 5pm and since I worked a flexible work schedule, I was around to walk them, feed them, and enjoy playdates. During that time, I was also asked by several coworkers to take care of their animals as well. I will always give my time to animals in need. I recently moved to Minnesota in 2024. I currently live with my boyfriend and a roommate with an 11-year-old lab. Because I am mostly at home, I spend my time taking her on walks, feeding her, and partaking in tug-of-wars. I also spend time taking care of my boyfriend's sister's dog, Nora. I am currently working towards finding a job with my degree of Natural Resources during the winter season, so I am free any time Monday to Friday. Thank you for your consideration and how I could be helpful for your animals! In my client's home, I will always respect their needs and rules for their pet. I have always followed exactly what anyone expects of me and will always do whatever is needed. I can only offer taking care of someone's dog in their own home, as my roommate's dog I care for does not get along with other animals. Let me know how I can be of assistance to you!

About: Hi! I’m Eden and I am 19 years old. I can’t remember a time where I didn’t have a furry (or non furry) companion with me! I grew up with dogs and pet birds. I have fostered dogs and puppies with a local rescue, SecondHand Hounds since 2020 and have leash, crate, and potty trained them. I taught basic skills such as sit, stay, come, lay down, and leave it. I have babysat numerous different dogs during the past four years. I have been quite interested in the veterinary field so by doing this, I am able to gain more experience with different breeds and sizes of pets. I currently have two dogs and a pet gecko! 🩷 I’m currently in my sophomore year of college and trying to save up more money! So I have plenty of time for your furry friends! I have two lovely dogs to help keep your dogs company! I always make sure that I am giving your furry friends my undivided attention.

“Elle has such a great vibe for our dog - calm and in no hurry. We will hire them whenever they're available - super reliable, never have to worry.”

About: Hello my name is Chelsea and I love animals. Growing up I lived on a hobby farm with cats, dogs, horses, goats, fish and chickens to now when I have reptiles, two dogs and a cat. My dream job would be to work with animals every day and build a trust between owner and sitter because I know the feeling when you can trust that your animal baby will be cared for to the fullest extent. I have always cared for animals and have been to a few basic animal emergency classes that I learned a lot from such as cpr on cats, dogs and reptiles to learning basic signs of pain or uncomfortably. I can’t wait to meet more animals and am excited to start. I have always had a routine and the pets were just a part of that. If I leave the house the have each other but I’m never gone for more then an couple hours. I care for them as I would my own, they are apart of the family and I wouldn’t want it any other way. If they need water; I would fill the bowl, same with food. If they needed potty break I would take them outside; and if they wanted to cuddle and watch a movie on the couch I would allow it.

“Sierra has taken care of our pets a few times now and we’ll definitely book her again. She is very reliable and takes great care of them. Highly recommend!”
