Dog Walking New Hope

“Madilyn came over to walk my dog Bane on super short notice. She was timely and so sweet, and my German shepherd loved the long hour walk they went on!”

“Andy takes great care of my baby's! Andy is easy to communicate with, and takes great pictures. When I come home the dogs are always excited in a way I know they had a nice time with a new friend.”

About: Hello! Thank you for taking the time to review my profile. I am a huge animal lover and have grown up/cared for dogs for as long as I can remember. I grew up with mostly Norwegian Elkhounds but had one Carin terrier find his way to my family. Currently I have 1 Norwegian Elkhound named Bear who is about 6 years old and my best friend. My boyfriend and I recently adopted 2 cats from the animal Humane Society named Jack and Lucas. I have been pet sitting since high school and have taken care of cats, dogs, rabbit, fish and hamsters. When I am not with animals I can be found hiking, reading, knitting or playing video games. I am currently making my way through the Nancy Drew series and hoping to finish a scarf by Christmas time. I try to stay active and like taking my dog on long walks especially in the summer. I am currently go to school full time. Which allows me to prioritize caring for my pets and lets me fit a wide ranging of scheduling needs. My pets currently run the home. They have free reign of the entire house and nap, eat and sometimes even potty where ever they like.

About: I love dogs, and would very much enjoy your dog’s companionship in my home, to join me on my daily walks in the neighborhood, an afternoon snooze, treats as allowed by you, and a lot of attention and pets. I am a laid-back person, easy going, relaxed, friendly and would enjoy spending time with your beloved pet. Life is wonderful when shared with a companion! Also, I especially enjoy senior dogs and only take one dog at a time, unless it’s two dogs from the same family. I am retired and home most of the time. My schedule is relaxed, and my attitude is to go-with-the-flow and enjoy the gifts each day brings. On occasion, I go to the grocery store or meet a friend for lunch, but most of the time I am home. My goal would be to do my best to help your dog feel comfortable in my home, and attend to your dog's needs and desires. I will keep your dog safe by making sure they don’t accidentally slip out the door, and I avoid other dogs on our walks. I will send you daily photo updates and a recap of the day's activities. Above all, your pet will be loved, well cared for, and safe.

About: I have had dogs since my childhood and have helped train multiple dogs. I love all dogs and I would enjoy spending time with dogs again since I currently don’t have one. I spend a lot of time with my mom’s dog and frequently care for him when she is out of town. I get out of work by 2:55 everyday except Wednesdays and the last Thursday of each month. On those days I am done with work at 3:20. I am a teacher so I have winter break and spring break off as well. I have a small condo that I own that allows small dogs. I don’t have any pets. If you have a larger dog, I would be happy to come to you. I will follow whatever directions you leave and treat your pet like I would my own. I am a 2nd grade teacher and I’m very responsible. I take my commitments seriously and am very dependable.

About: As fellow dog parents, we know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your best friend! My husband and I have both grown up with family dogs and have experience with a variety of breeds, personalities, energy levels, and care needs. While we weren’t the primary caregivers for our family pets, we were actively involved in their daily care, including feeding, walking, playtime, training reinforcement, grooming, and providing lots of love and attention. For the past three years, we’ve been proud dog parents to our own pup and have continued to expand our knowledge of positive reinforcement training, enrichment activities, exercise, and creating a safe, happy environment for dogs. We understand that every dog is unique, and we strive to provide personalized care, plenty of affection, and regular updates so pet parents can feel confident and at ease while they’re away. Our home is built around a consistent, dog-centered routine, and we extend that same level of care and structure to any pets staying with us. Alex is a full-time teacher and is home during the summer months, providing plenty of daytime supervision, companionship, and care. When he is in the school year, we maintain a balanced schedule with reliable coverage and regular check-ins throughout the day. Kyra works full-time from 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM in a dog-friendly workplace, which allows for flexibility, occasional breaks, and at times bringing our own dog into the office. Each day starts with a morning walk, breakfast, and potty break, followed by structured care throughout the day, including afternoon exercise, enrichment activities, playtime, and attention. Even during the workday, dogs are never without a predictable routine and are set up for comfort, rest, and stimulation. We provide a warm, structured, and enrichment-focused home where dogs are treated like part of the family. We are a married couple living in a quiet, dog-friendly neighborhood next to the Brooklyn Park Community Park trails, making it easy to enjoy regular walks and outdoor adventures. We have one friendly dog of our own who loves playmates, as well as a fully fenced backyard and plenty of indoor space for play, rest, and relaxation. We welcome dogs into our home as part of the family, including allowing them on furniture for comfort and bonding. For safety and structure, we prefer crate sleeping at night and always ensure dogs are settled into a calm, secure routine before bedtime. All dogs are fed separately to avoid any food-related stress, and we’re attentive to individual needs and preferences. We love incorporating enrichment into each dog’s stay, including puzzle toys, training games, and interactive play, alongside daily walks and outdoor time. Our goal is to provide a safe, comfortable, and engaging environment where every dog feels at home and well cared for.

“Lauren was dependable, communicative and took great care of our dog. We needed a last-minute booking and we are grateful she was willing to do it.”

About: I love pets so much! I have two cats, Tommy and Rosie, and they’re the sweetest. I have been a preschool teacher and a house cleaner, so I’m not afraid of cleaning up any messes or accidents that may happen. I’m trustworthy and reliable because of those job experiences; my favorite part of cleaning houses was getting to know people’s pets! I also love creating a connection with pet parents. If I’m coming into your home, you and your pets become a part of my family. I’m also an actor, so if you ever want to know about shows that are happening, I’m a very good resource! It’s my goal to make sure your pets feel loved and nurtured even when you’re not at home. I create my own schedule, so I can be pretty flexible when I need to be. Mornings are my most available time, so let’s talk! I’ll follow any notes and instructions you give me, and if there’s anything I cannot do, I’ll let you know so we can work on a solution together. There may be some things I’m inexperienced in when looking after dogs(giving medication, etc) but if you show me what to do, I’m a fast learner!

About: Dogs have always been apart of my life, as I always had a dog growing up and at one point owned 5 dogs. To me having 5 dogs is no different than having 1, as long as you have enough love to go around. All they want to do is love you and make you happy, so how can you not love them in return. I have 3 dogs of my own right now and enjoy spending time with them. I probably spoil them as they know when I come home with bags that there is more than likely a treat or toy for them. I am available any day and time and have a fenced yard. I am reliable and trustworthy and would treat your dog with care, respect and love.

About: I've had dogs almost my entire life and have been taking care of the dogs of friends and family for the past 11 years. This ranges from absolute cuddle bug Yorkies to energetic labs. I work from 6-3:30 Sunday through Thursday, but making sure that the animals in my care have a regular schedule as best fits around that is key. First thing in the morning I'd be making sure the animals in my care have access to food and water and taken outside to do their business as applicable. Once I get home I recheck food and water needs and take care of their play and exercise needs. I have a fenced in yard and depending on the animal's needs, they can be crated or allowed to roam around the house. The specifics may vary depending on the type of pet and the owner's preferences or special instructions.

About: I have many years of loving dogs. I am extremely patient. I believe every dog is unique and they all have a story to tell. I am retired and able to give 24/7 care. I was a licensed CNA for years. I walk every day. I am an advid reader. I also work puzzles and knit. I like my gardens also.i can sit inside or out with your dog. I am very responsible. Although I have a fenced yard I would never leave your precious pet alone. I have nothing in the reach of your fur baby that could cause harm to any animal.

“Amanda was very helpful and great at walking Gap! Will book with Amanda again.”

About: Have taken care of family dogs off all breeds and sizes. Have been trusted to overnight sit and bathe dogs along with walks! Love to be around all dogs and show them the best love! I am an athletic trainer who is off in the mornings and summer. Have several available days and times that would work for dog walking! I do not have a schedule in the summer so I am available at all times. It is important to me that all pets feel loved and get the exercise that they deserve. All pets will be given treats (within moderation and if allowed) and as much pets as they want! Walks will be focused on the dog, their comfortability, and getting to smell the fresh air!!

About: I provide calm, attentive care for pets of all ages and needs, including seniors and animals with chronic or complex medical conditions. My experience includes: • Senior pets and mobility‑limited animals • Chronic and debilitating conditions • Medication administration: oral, topical, and injections (IM, SQ, IV) • Strict and specialized diets • Household pets beyond dogs and cats: reptiles, amphibians, fish, insects, and birds (Drop‑In Visits only - please message me with your pet’s species and care needs) My focus is always on gentle handling, maintaining each pet’s normal routine, and creating a safe, low‑stress environment while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I don’t work outside the home due to health limitations, so caring for your pets, along with my own will be my only focus other than school. Your pets receive consistent attention, predictable routines, and a calm presence throughout the day. I do not offer boarding, but I’m happy to care for your pets in your home. I can take your dog for walks, play with them in your yard, or provide enrichment indoors. If needed, I can crate your dog safely and make crate time positive with enrichment and comfort items. My goal is always to follow your routine, so your pet feels secure.

About: I believe every dog deserves a cozy, happy place where they feel loved and cared for. I’m attentive, responsible, and focused on making sure your pup has a calm, fun, and comfortable stay. From cuddles to walks to sticking closely to your dog’s routine, I’ll make sure they’re treated like one of my own. ♥️ I work from home, so I have a flexible schedule and am available for dog walking between 9:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m. I also provide overnight care for partial or full week stays, depending on your needs. If helpful, I can also come by to pick up your pup from your home. My home includes two young boys, ages 8 and 6, who love dogs and are very comfortable around them, so your fur baby will be welcomed into a warm, family-friendly environment. 🐶 My yard is not fenced, but your dog’s safety will always be my top priority. When we’re in the backyard, I will keep your dog securely on leash and never let them out of my sight, so you can feel confident they are always supervised and cared for. My house is always pup friendly. Whether your bestie needs a bed of their own or prefers to cuddle with hoomans, I want to give them the best experience away from home possible 🐾

About: I have lived with dogs & cats my entire life & have owned a cat for 4 years now! I care for my moms dog still & walk her all of the time. My schedule is flexible, I am available late morning to early afternoon Monday-Thursday and in the evening. Weekends are mostly open! so I am available to care for a pet anytime outside of those hours! I own a cat right now so I take care of her daily by feeding, cuddling, changing liter box, grooming. I also walk & help care for my moms dog at her house.

“Anna is honest, communicative and sweet to my pup.”

“Rachel did a great job walking our 190# mastiff on one of the coldest days we've had so far! She was at ease with our gentle giant and you can tell she has a caring nature. Most importantly, our dog loved her!”

About: I love being around dogs and treat them as family, as they should be! I currently have 3 fur babies, two back labs who are brother and sister and a pitbull. They are my world and I will treat your dogs as such as well. Every dog deserves love and cuddles! I've worked with puppies through senior dogs and understand that every pup has its own personality and needs. I have experience giving medication as my girl receives daily meds for her Addisons. I love being active with dogs whether that's playing catch in the backyard, tug-o-war or going on long walks. I can't wait to meet your dog! I currently work from home so if I'm staying at your place of residence for an extended stay your family member will receive all the attention needed during the days. I have experience crating dogs if needed while I stay at your home. Because I work remotely I'll be able to play with and walk your pet throughout the day.
