Dog Walking Northeast Park

“Dave was great! He sent pics and was timely. The dogs were very happy!”

About: I’m a college student who had the pleasure to work with the PAWS program at the University Of Minnesota which helps people meet animals safely. It helped me educate more people about how pets support mental health and wellbeing. My favorite thing in the world is hosting those angels in my residence. I’m currently taking classes mostly Monday and Wednesday morning but when i’m not in school i’m usually at home with the pups. I take a long walk every morning so i usually like to have a buddy to accompany me! I prefer to adjust to the owner’s style rather than doing my own way. I’ve learned that some pups can get overwhelmed with sudden changes to their environment and routine.

“Nice person that cares a great deal for animals! My Lola likes to pull on her leash and it’s nice to know someone has the care and patience”

“Coordinating with Emerson for dog walks is easy. My dog, Jelly, loves Emerson and I have found him to be very reliable and caring with the dog.”

“Claire has been wonderful helping out our dog Mabel with walks while we’re at work! She’s very communicative, works with our schedule, and our dog loves her!”

“Angelica shares the best updates on her walks with Rufus! She communicates clearly and is punctual. Really happy she is our regular dog walker.”

“Darwin is incredibly reliable, and they work very well with our pup Sage. We have been able to rest easy during the work day (and check our pet camera less!), because we know Sage is in good hands with Darwin. They have even taken some time during our booking to reinforce training with Sage!”

About: We LOVE dogs and have a city sized house full of people that love giving them attention! We have 2 school age children but are home full time in the summer with a good sized fenced backyard and our own friendly pups, Oli and Lulu. We go back to our full-time jobs as educators on August 25, so our calendar reflects our school year availability (mostly weekends and some school breaks!) I (Kara) grew up always having a dog in the family, and as soon as I could, I acquired one of my own. I've learned that dogs need people, but people need dogs just as much. All this to say, we can't imagine a world without these furry little companions! With many attentive people in our household, your dog will never have needs unmet. Whether it be snuggles, toys, pets, walks, playtimes, food... be assured we can handle it! We can't wait to meet your dog! We both work in education, so our summers are very open & flexible and offer so many opportunities for dog walks, dog parks, pet cuddles, etc. Once the school year starts, our calendar reflects our weekend and school break availability! We have a fenced back yard and get on many outings with our own high energy dog. We do on long walks daily and often to the off leash dog park (if your dog is licensed in Minneapolis). We have a friendly cat that mostly keeps to herself around dogs, but she does not allow other cats in the home (so we are unable to board cats.)

About: Hi, I'm Kristi! I'm a PhD student at the University of Minnesota, and I am a major animal lover (dogs, cats, birds, you name it.) I grew up taking care of my family's dogs, which included Boston terriers, pit bulls, American bulldogs, miniature pinchers, pomeranians, and so many other cuties! I love dogs of all breeds, and I'd love to take yours on a walk! I also adore cats. I have two cats, Darcy and Pebbles, who are my babies. I've also been volunteering for Feline Rescue, a Saint Paul-based cat rescue, for three years now. I have a lot of experience with both cats and dogs and am happy to do drop-in visits for you! My schedule is very flexible. I'm working on research for graduate school, and I have very few fixed time commitments, so I'm available to walk your dog or visit your pets whenever! I look forward to taking care of your pet! I'll make sure they have food and water, are fully entertained, and receive any care that you request! I am also comfortable giving medications.

“Shawntil is a gem. So happy when she drops in to take care of my 3 pups. 💗”

About: Local resident of NE Minneapolis and owner of a 4 yr old Husky, I love dogs of all breeds and sizes! I provide daycare for your beloved furry friends at my house while I work remotely. My home has a fenced in backyard with a kiddy pool for them to run around in, a walking trail down the street, and a dog park nearby! I provide daily walks to the local park or trips to the dog park so they are well exercised and socialized while you are away. There is amble space for the dogs to play in the house (no crates are provided) with toys to plays with and treats! For overnight stays, you will get daily updates on how your dog is doing with photos. I work from home so I can let your pups outside into the backyard for potty breaks often, take them for a daily walk, and offer engaging treats/toys while I work. I’m done by 3pm most days so trips to the dog park are very common! Reliability, trust, and a calm environment are at the center of what I do. Your dog will be welcomed into a clean, secure, and loving home where they’ll be treated like family. I prioritize consistent communication with owners, close supervision, and plenty of affection so you can feel confident and at ease while you’re away. My goal is to create a safe, stress-free space where your pup feels comfortable, happy, and cared for.

About: Hi friends! My name is Robin, I’m 29, and I’m an artist living in northeast Minneapolis currently working in the service industry. While I don’t have any pets of my own, I am my community’s right-hand-gal when it comes to pet care. I also spend my free time often reading and consuming content about dog training and working with reactive pups. It is important to me that my presence is known by the animals in my life to be calm and joyful and consistent. I’ve got lots of attention to give and lots of patience - looking to overflow back into the families around me through helping care and tend to their pets. I am most familiar with having small dogs be a part of my family but have built my pet experience recipe to the brim with dogs of all sizes and ages as well as playful & shy cats and kittens. Don’t let the “gap in my resume” fool you - I’ve been servicing families in my area consistently (they just text me the old fashioned way ;)). I am currently in-between jobs so I have more open availability than normal. I currently have a standing commitment Wed-Friday 1pm-3pm, but that is my only limitation at this time. I am located in NE Minneapolis. I like to simulate what a normal day might look like for them while adapting to their particular needs surrounding getting to know a new friend (me!). I pride myself in being able to match the energy of animals and display to them that my job is to make sure they’re safe and I do not need to be in their physical space when they don’t want it. I love cuddling up with a lil silly sleepy pal but I won’t even be putting my hands on them regularly until/unless it is absolutely clear that they’re ready and wanting attention from me like that.

About: I’ve grown up around dogs and absolutely love caring for them! I currently have a Golden Retriever puppy of my own, so I’m very comfortable with puppies, potty training, walks, playtime, feeding routines, crates, and all of the energy that comes with younger dogs. I also have experience with adult dogs of different sizes and personalities. I know how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pet, and I’ll always treat your dog with the same patience, attention, and love that I give my own. I work Thursday-Sunday afternoons or evenings as a server. Here is a rough overview of my class schedule: Mondays: done by 10:30 Tuesdays: done by 12:00 and class again from 4-5:15 Wednesday: done by 10:30, class again from 6-9pm Thursday: class from 10-12:45 Friday: done by 10:30 Right now I live in an apartment, so id be able to stay at your house. I’m very used to staying overnight at other people houses

“Thank you Amy for a great first visit with Sage! The details you shared about how the visit went, as well as the multiple photos, were much appreciated :)”

About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats as a service since 2016. Every animal is different so I enjoy speaking with the owners beforehand and getting to bond with critters that are different than mine. I’ve cared for dogs of all ages and sizes and love caring for cats. I have cared for Guinea Pigs, chickens, pigs, goats, sheep and cattle as well. Farm sitting outside of the Twin Cities area available on weekends only ( Fri.pm-Sun afternoon). Weekly stays available only in Minneapolis due to full-time employment. I’m available weekends for walks and animal care. I’m a full-time employee so weekday evening walks after 5pm work best for my schedule. Previously, I have stayed overnight to keep the in home animals company and keep the house safe while folks are away. I can clean and bring in the mail. Whatever your expectations are I am happy to accommodate.

About: *IMMEDIATE AVAILABILITY* --I offer short-term & extended stays, and daily drop-ins for cats and small dogs-- *20 years experience *Senior Cat Care, can administer oral meds via syringe [In process of earning Red Cross Pet First Aid/CPR certification] Cat owner since childhood, cat sitter since high school, and cat lover since birth. I have 20 years of experience caring for my own kitty companions along with pet and house-sitting for others. [DOGS: While I've primarily focused on those of the feline persuasion, I do have experience dog-sitting and can accommodate small dogs for drop-ins, walks, and extended stays.] I've coaxed food, detangled mats, successfully snuck oral syringes, clipped claws, combed out fleas, popped pills, decoded morose meows, wiped butts, and scooped a whole lot of poop. I am well-versed in the subtleties of cat body language and highly perceptive of any small changes that might indicate illness or distress. I have experience caring for elderly cats with health issues including gastrointestinal, kidney disease, frequent UTIs, and respitory changes. I also have experience caring for cats who love to munch on plastic bags, leap into open fridges, sneeze in my face, and choose scraps of paper and cardboard boxes over premium catnip mice and luxury cat sofas. I'm responsible and dependable with a clean background check and driving record, own reliable transportation, and currently have few commitments and a very open schedule so frankly I would love nothing more than to get your mail, water your plants, and cuddle your cats (or dogs!) Available for full day and overnight stays or daily drop-ins and will happily provide detailed updates and photos. [Now offering separate dog walking!] I look forward to getting to know your closest companions and honoring their unique needs, and I promise they will love every meow-ment with me! (And I have a feline I will too) **IMMEDIATE AVAILABILITY** I accept as little as one-day prior reservations so if you are scrambling last-minute, I can be your go-to gal for a couple days, or even a couple weeks! Extended stays are no problem. If I'm not staying overnight I prefer afternoon and evening drop-ins/walks but can accommodate mornings on a case-by-case basis Currently on the job hunt so please let me cuddle your fur babies and water your plants instead of working on my resume I will always be respectful of your space and your pet's needs. I am a non-smoker, won't raid your fridge, or ever bring another person into your home. For extended stays I have no problem with special requests like bringing my own bedding, avoiding using your fancy espresso maker, or not messing up your netflix algorithm--this is YOUR space and I don't judge boundaries. I will always find and check on your pet as soon as I arrive and right before I leave, and I'll double-check that every door and window is shut and locked. I'm willing to water plants, get mail, and I won't miss garbage day--also open to discussing additional housekeeping needs. I strive to leave your space clean and tidy so upon your arrival home the only thing you'll need to focus on is reuniting with your best furr-iend.

About: My husband and our family have been watching dogs on Rover since before it was even called Rover. We've lived overseas a few times so if you see gaps in our reviews, that is why. We are very active with our doggie guests and would love to host your dog. We typically go on walks once a day and on weekends typically try to be outside more (as the winter weather permits). We're open to requests to take your pup to dog parks, bike rides, or walks depending on your pup's preferences. Note: you will typically see delayed responses past 9PM but will get back to you as soon as I see your messages. Thanks! Both my husband and I work full time M-F but I work from home and would be able to take bathroom breaks or walks mid-day. If you needed someone to stop by and let your dog out, it would have to be within the Columbia Heights, Fridley, Shoreview area. We have a fenced in yard in the back that we take out the dogs to hang, throw a ball, or relax. Inside the house we leave it open range as long as your pup can handle no accidents, no chewing the kids' stuffies (it's hard I know!), etc. When we are gone, we do like to crate our visitors so they don't get into mischief while we are gone.

About: Hello! I have been consistently house/dog sitting since 2023. I have experience in watching dogs from Chihuahuas to Great Danes. I previously have watched three dogs at a time, so if you have more than one dog that is no problem. I also have experience in providing dogs with medications needed throughout the day. This includes insulin shots and capsules/pills mixed into their food. While you are away I prefer to keep the dog in its original home rather than hosting your dog. I do require a meet & greet before services. This is for my safety alongside for you and your puppies comfortability with my presence. Beyond all else it’s important to me that your dog stays comfortable. I have cared for anxious, storm scared, epileptic, loud barkers, and jumpy puppies. It’s important to me that you communicate your animals behavior or traits so I can care to the best of my ability. Without a doubt I will accommodate to your dogs feeding requirements and potty breaks. Alongside that give them lots of cuddles, kisses, playtime, and walks. As for you… I will communicate how your puppy is doing, when I arrive, if any complications arise, and send photos! Your dog is in safe hands. I currently work at a coffee shop a few times a week! My hours usually range from 4-5 hours. So it’s never long enough to leave your puppy for long periods of time. I will always honor your puppies scheduled eating times and potty breaks throughout the day! Pets are so so important! As a caregiver, I want to relieve your stress and allow you to know that your pets are in safe hands! If you would be so kind to welcome me into your home, I can take care of them there. I would prefer to keep your animals where they feel most comfortable. A fenced in backyard is preferred, but taking them out on a walk is no hassle! Provide me with all of the important details on your puppy, and I can provide service towards them! ❤️
