I'll make your pup tired and happy!

Pet care experience

I'm a 24 year old law student at Mitchell Hamline School of Law, and would love the opportunity to walk your dog! I've always considered myself a dog person, and have never lived without one. When I was a small child living in St.Paul, I learned how to care for my family's Sheltie, Rosie. When we moved to the suburbs when I was 11, we got a much larger collie names Sadie, who I loved taking for long walks through local parks, paths, and fields every day. During college, my roommate had a an elderly border collie who I took for walks and potty breaks while she worked long hours as a vet. My parents recently got a new dog, a lanky mutt named Rufus, who is extremely energetic, so we run and play for hours every time I visit! Currently, I live with my fiancée's Lhasa apso Kirby, who is a sleepy old man. He has stiff joints and can only handle short walks. So, let me do your dog walking for you!

I contacted Preston with almost no notice and he was able to accommodate my request. While I was away from the house, I got Preston's Rover Card showing the time, distance, and route of their walk, plus a photo of my happy dog. Perfect!

Preston showed up on time and got right to the task of walking my dog Rufus. They covered about 1.5 miles in each half-hour walk. I really liked seeing their route, potty report, and the photo of my dog in the Rover Card sent to me at the end of each walk. Preston told me after their second walk that they encountered a man sitting on the ground next to the sidewalk, lacing up a pair of skates. For some reason, Rufus was afraid of him and wouldn't walk past him. Preston picked Rufus up--all 55 pounds of him!--and carried him past the man. My pup loved his walks with Preston, and there's no doubt that I will hire him again.

What does one look for in a dog walker? A hearty person with a gentle soul. Someone who loves animals and the outdoors. Someone who will be there as scheduled and whom you can trust in your home. Preston is all of those things. I have known Preston for many years; he has walked and played with all three of my dogs, and they’ve all adored him. The same goes for our cats. I can say without reservation that Preston is an honest, respectful, trustworthy, compassionate young man. He has a good heart.

Preston was really great with my elder dog (13 years old) walking him and putting in his eye medications! You will not be disappointed by hiring him!

Information Preston D. would like to know about your pet

I love herding dogs because I grew up with them, but I've never met a dog I didn't get along with! I guess I'd need to know whether your dog is aggressive or has any special needs.

A typical day

I love nature, so wooded parks make for some of my favorite walks. However, I also love the city, and walking a dog through neighborhoods or along bustling paths is always a good time.
