Dog Walkers in Marion, MN

About: My husband and I have had dogs all of our lives! We recently lost our 140 lb. Bouvier des Flandres (Oscar) and our kids are missing having a pet! We are currently pet-less, non-smoking, clean home, looking to love a dog for the weekend or during the summer when we are off. We have a huge yard (2 acres) and can keep your pet on a leash or nearby while we play outside! We love walks and snuggles! We prefer non-shedding breeds. No aggressive dogs. We are currently working/at school - so weekends are it. Once school is out (June-August) we have all summer to watch your pup! We are also an active family, so if you need your dog walked, we can do it! We will keep a close eye on your pup. Our kids are super gentle and are the sweetest kids. Your dog will be our priority if they are here! We want you and your pet to feel at home. We have been dog lovers all of our lives and we used Rover with our last dog and know you want a trusting home - we get it! We don't currently have any other animals and will only take 1 dog at a time (unless from the same family).

“Lindsey met my wife in a timely manner at condo entrance. Per my wife, she was friendly and Memphis came back wagging his tail. Appreciate Lyndsey time and it was our first experience using Rover!”

About: I have always been around animals and have had pets my entire life, including cats, dogs, and even birds. I really enjoy taking care of all animals and providing excellent service. My family has a bird, two shih tzus, and a cat. I have frequently been around bigger breeds as well so I am comfortable with any-sized pet. I have experience walking other people's dogs and pet sitting for family and family friends. I am busy this summer preparing for college in the fall, but I wanted something that I care about to fill some of my free time. I am also saving up for college expenses. I would love to make pet sitting/walking a major part of my life. I would be able to watch pets at the owners' home. I will be able to watch them overnight, and or come over to check on them as well as taking walks and playing with them.

About: We (Sean and myself) welcome both dogs and cats! Many years of experience between the two of us. Love taking care of pets and just want them to have a safe and loving environment. We have two kids who are 8 and 4 and they love all animals. I work full time as a nurse but all shifts are at home. I am off on the weekends. My significant other, Sean, stays at home as well and we care for the animals together. I am there to walk and play with them. Feed and water them when they need it. Can take for frequent potty breaks. Also just want them to have fun!

“Hound has been great with our dogs and they seem relaxed and happy when we get home. Manages the needs of our very old husky and young border collie mix very well so they both get the attention and exercise they need.”

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and have several years of experience caring for pets for friends, family, and neighbors. I’m dependable, patient, and active, and I enjoy making sure dogs get the exercise, attention, and care they need.

I am 100% open to all dog walking and sitting!! Drop ins too! Summer time is here and I would love to care for and look after your dog :) I always make sure pets feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while their owners are away.

I’m dependable, respectful of clients’ homes, and committed to creating a calm and positive environment for every pet.

About: I’ve had dogs since I was a kid! I currently have two golden retrievers, a cat and a horse. I am very responsible, and I love to be outside walking! I currently own my own spa, so my hours are fairly flexible around appointments. I always schedule time into my day to be able to walk my own dogs, and I only work 4.5 days a week at the spa I am used to walking two big dogs together, sometimes 3 when I babysit my sisters dog. My younger dog is quite rambunctious, so I am good with energy

About: From growing up with cats and dogs to helping pet-sit for the furry friends in my neighborhood, I have been caring for pets my entire life. I love to cuddle, walk, hike, play, and adventure! Contact me if you're looking for someone to check-in on your fur baby, spend some time playing with your cat or dog, or take your dog on a walk. I can't wait to become your fur baby's new friend! I am doing this in addition to my professional job. I, too, get lonely when my people are working their 9-5, so I'm hoping to fill some of my days off making your fur baby feel better when you can't be with them. Because I don't have set days I work, my schedule can vary, but I tend to have many weekdays available! Safety is my first priority! I want to keep your fur baby healthy and happy while you're away, so you can spend quality time together when you return! In my current living situation, I'm unfortunately unable to have pets. Please know that when I talk about "my pets," they are my family's pets that live with my parents. I do not have any pets in my current household. With that being said, if I am walking your dog, I require a supplied leash or harness and leash combo whether we are walking the neighborhood or your dog is hike-friendly. In your home, I will make sure to carefully open doors in/out of required spaces to ensure your fur baby does not go places they are not supposed to. I will also help get your baby back in their crate if desired!

About: I am finishing chiropractic school this December along with completing my animal chiropractic certification. Growing up with numerous pets allowed me to realize my passion I have for animals. I have worked at a boarding facility for dogs, cats, and exotics for three years. I also worked at a grooming salon for all sizes of dogs. Additionally, I have volunteered at a variety of humane societies including fostering for the past 12 years where I have worked with all behaviors and breeds of dogs. I have pet sat for different families over the past six years. These experiences have all included the duties of feeding, medicating, exercising, and making sure all needs of the animals are met. I strive to go above and beyond when caring for people's beloved pets. I currently am finishing up my last chiropractic internship M, W, and F that has a 2 hour lunch I can come over to let the dogs out while being off Tu, Th, and the weekends. We don’t have a fenced yard, but I love taking multiple walks with the dogs all depending on their regular activity level and willingness of course.

“Mia was able to accommodate walks for Willow, even when we had to make some last minute switches, which we really appreciated. She was communicative and sent photos/updates after the walk. Would highly recommend!”

About: I have cared for everything from puppies to senior dogs as well as cats, small mammals (guinea pigs, hamsters, etc), and lizards. Each animal has such personality that I am excited to learn. During the school year (September-May) I am available evenings and weekends. During the summer (June-august) I have way more flexibility and can work with your needs. I unfortunately cannot take care of any fury animals in my home due to my family members allergies. However, I will follow whatever guidelines you may have.

“She did amazing!”
