“Tim has always been available every time we have needed him to walk our dog. He’s friendly, knowledgeable and great with our very shy rescue. I am grateful for him and his help learning how to book and his positive attitude toward our requests. I would highly recommend him!”


“Breen was very helpful with me as I began the process of using Rover. Most importantly, Duke has been well cared for and happy with each visit.”



“Jackson is a really invested dog walker. He’s so good with our pandemic pup who seems to love the attention and walks during the day with him now that we’re all back to work and school and the pup is home alone more often.”


“Charlie loves walking with Tracy. She has a calming and positive nature that helps with his high energy. He watches out the window for her. I really appreciate it, along with her flexibility with my schedule.”



“Aichon has been our dog walker and soon-to-be pet sitter. She has been on time, sends updates, and posts lots of pictures. She responds to any requests and questions promptly as well. I've been very happy with her flexibility and professionalism as we are figuring out what times/days work best for our puppy to be walked. I highly recommend Aichon for your pet care needs!”

“Larissa is absolutely wonderful. Our dog Paco, who tends to be wary around new people, grew to love her immediately, and with good reason. Larissa is so responsible, warm, friendly and kind, and she instinctively "gets" animals. She radiates positive energy and I am SO glad we found her. Five stars across the board!”


“Gabrielle did a fantastic job getting my dog on a couple walks to break up my long day at my sisters wedding. My dog was happy and well cared for when I came home, and Gabrielle gave updates with photos so I knew my dog was good throughout the day.”


“Sarah has been amazing! I recently adopted a 4 year old German Shepard, and I work long hours. She’s has been great with coming over and taking my rather dog for walks, and also helping him to acclimate to being in the city. She’s very patient, and always sends pictures and updates. She has spent more time with him than she has had to, and we both appreciate her extra time and care! I will continue to have Sarah take Duke for walks!”


“Very responsive, forgot to leave out the keys and he was able to come back latter in the day to complete the walk! Thank you so much”


“Izzy was on time, super friendly and trustworthy. She was confident with handling our 80 pound lab on their first walk. I would definitely recommend Izzy to anyone!”


“Launa is a gem. She is patient and understanding with my dog’s quirks ;) She has been reliable and available for repeat walks and I really appreciate that.”


About: Hi! My name is Yekaterina, and I would love to meet you and your dog and/or cat! I’ve cared for animals for over 15 years and currently have two cats, Bernie and Rosie, and one playful pup named Bumi. I understand how much pets are family, and I bring that same care and attention to every pet I look after. I have experience with both puppy and senior pet care, including administering medications, basic training, and managing special diets. Whether it's going on long walks, keeping up with an energetic puppy, or giving a senior pet the slow-paced, gentle care they deserve, I tailor my care to each animal's needs. I'm responsible, communicative, and happy to send updates so you can feel confident while you're away. Thank you for considering me in your search, I’d love the opportunity to care for your furry friend! I’m a recent Master’s graduate and currently working part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to pet care. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and extended stays, and I’m happy to adjust my routine to meet your pet’s needs. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, their safety and comfort are always my top priority. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and needs to create a calm and familiar environment. I closely follow care instructions, keep living areas clean and hazard-free, and give lots of attention and affection. I'm respectful of clients' homes and always aim to build trust, with both pets and their people!

“My lab Roxy absolutely loves Maureen! I don’t have to worry about my dog when I’m at work because I know she will be loved and well taken care of. My dog is my literal child and I 100% trust Maureen!”


About: I've had 22 years of experience living with and loving black labs in south Minneapolis. I can accommodate dogs of any age. I love to be outdoors and enjoy walking. My work week is full; however, I am fully available on the weekends to dote on your pup. I am a teacher. From mid-August to mid-June my weeks are full. My weekends are open. I'm available over holidays. I am also available throughout the summer. I have a small home with a fenced-in yard and a park within blocks. For the past twelve years, I had a dog, and we walked every day. I greatly miss my companion and would love to shower your dog with lots of love and care.


“She is as always wonderful with our Samantha. Sammy has special elder dog needs and Alisha has been so patient and kind with her , you’d think she was her own.”


“Olivia is great with my dog and provides great updates and photos! She has been prompt, flexible, and accommodating of my dog’s needs. Highly recommend!”


“Wow what a great walk you squeezed into 30 minutes! Appreciate your communication and help! Would definitely reach out again.”


About: I've had a dog almost my whole life. I currently stay home with my 3 young children (9, 7, 4) who love dogs and help me care for our young dog, Suki. Suki LOVES all people and dogs and loves to make new friends. She is easy going and passive around other dogs and just wants to play. We like to be outside and have play dates in our fully fenced in backyard. Your pup would be treated like a member of our family and get lots of belly rubs and exercise while staying with us! Dogs will need to be familiar with, and friendly with children to stay with us. I am home full time, so pups at our house will get many potty breaks and can have multiple walks a day. No kenneling necessary unless needed and there will almost always be someone here to hang out with your pup. We have a fully fenced in yard with a young, friendly dog (+ 3 kids) to keep your dog company. We have a crate we can use for comfort or if we leave the house. Our pup loves to play in the backyard or sun herself on our large deck. It's a perfect backyard for puppy playdates!

“Rachel was so sweet with my dog and reliable!”


About: I’m a lifelong animal lover and proud pet parent to a talkative dilute tortie cat, so I understand how important it is to feel secure when leaving your furry family members in someone else’s care. What sets me apart from other sitters is my personalized approach to each animal. With a friendly and upbeat attitude, I create a positive environment where pets feel safe and comfortable. Plus, I know how much peace of mind matters, so I keep pet parents updated with daily photos, videos, and messages, so they can enjoy their time away without worry! NOTE: I only house sit, do drop in visits, or provide walks for animals. I work a flexible hybrid schedule of some days in the office, but work mostly at home. To ensure we are on the same page, I will work with you by discussing scheduling ahead of time with your timing needs and any special accommodations for your furry companion. I care for pets by following your explicit instructions that you leave for me about your pet and keeping their routine consistent. I will also provide you daily updates (written update, photos, and a video) about your animal!
