Dog Walkers in Racine, MN

About: I've taken care of and owned many types of animals in my life including but not limited to Dogs, Cats, Mini horse, turtles, geckos, bearded dragons, snakes, fish, guinea pigs, hamsters, rats, ferrets, birds, and rabbits. I love all animals and nature! I currently am working a full time job 7am-3pm Monday - Fridays and want to see where rover takes me as I enjoy all animals I have 2 dogs one is 14lb and the other 22lbs. They are spoiled and love to play and will keep your pup company. I own 2 crates if needed. My dogs usually have 24/7 access to their food. However if needed during boardings (when I'm offering that service) if feedings are scheduled for a specific time this can be worked with as well.

About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats since I can remember. I’ve always had them in my home growing up and now I have a dog of my own. I also had smaller pets such as hamsters and gerbils as well as fish and hermit crabs. I love going for walks with pets or even spending time with them in your home so they feel comfortable. I work full time for the Rochester Public Schools as a Mental Health Practitioner, so I have summers off. My availability during the school year is weekdays I am available 4pm and after, and weekends I am wide open. Summertime I am available and free to fit you and your pet’s needs. I know how it feels to have something pop up last minute and have to stress on what to do with your pet, so I am more than happy to work with you on such short notice. Currently only accepting requests within the Kasson, Byron, Hayfield, Dodge Center area due to my kid’s daily schedules. I have two sweet boys, along with a cat. I know how different each dog’s personality and needs are, so I am happy to work with their routine and their comfort level. I like to make sure that there is as much normalcy for them as possible.

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’m comfortable with walks, feeding, playtime, and checking in on pets while owners are away. I’ll always treat your dog like my own and make sure they feel safe and cared for. 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 pay close attention during walks, follow feeding and care instructions carefully, and make sure pets get plenty of exercise and attention. I’m dependable, respectful of clients’ homes, and committed to creating a calm and positive environment for every pet.

About: I've grown up with dogs my entire life and I currently have a 7 year old, large breed dog. He comes with his own health related needs, including abnormal development of his hips and arthritis. This has allowed me to learn how to handle and care for dogs with similar issues, as well as be cautious and considerate of the needs of the animals I care for. I am able to follow special instructions and make sure I’m giving your pet the care they deserve. I’ve volunteered at an animal shelter for several years, providing mostly socialization and walking of the pets. I work limited hours during the summer months, but typically am working 7:30-4:00pm during the end of August-May. With most of my summers off, I am looking to spend additional time during the day to play and care for your pet(s)! I have a Great Dane/mastiff mix and he is my whole world! He has high standards for his care and knows it too. I will treat your pet just like I’d treat my own. I will do my best to make your pet feel comfortable and happy during their time with me!

“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.”

“Was patient while I talked about Finn, showed up on time and gave Finn lots of pets and love!”

About: When I was younger I started my own dog walking business, as of lately I thought about going back to my roots. Although I haven’t owned dogs throughout my life, I’ve definitely taken care of them for friends and family and I can promise you I will help meet the needs of your dog whatever they may be! I work as an RN, but have a lot of random weekdays and weekends off. I’m looking to stay busy this summer now that I’m not in school. I will respect the environment that I am in. I will treat your pet with the love, care and respect they deserve as well as your home.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs & cats for 14 years and have done Rover for over two years with many repeat clients. I had to make a new account. Family members have relied on me to watch over their fur babies, take them on walks and give oral medication. I have had my own dog & cat. I’ve have experience with puppies, senior dogs, kittens & senior cats. I’m currently working full time on weekdays but weekends are open for me. I can do overnight on weekends and drop ins and walks. I always make sure we set up and introduction with your dog and/or cat so they can get comfortable with me. We never leave the house without a leash!! Your dog will always be leashes when going outside. I won’t let your dogs interact with other dogs (due to chance of injury to your fur baby) if you do want me to have your dogs interact with other dogs let me know and I can do that.

About: I'm a current veterinary technician student who has 3 fur babies of my own (one dog and two cats). As a full-time student, Rover is the perfect opportunity to supplement my income while gaining experience.

About: I have taken care of dogs as large as an Italian Mastiff and as small as mini schnauzers. I am comfortable and confident with handling dogs of all temperaments. I currently go to college full time. I only have classes in the mornings, so my days are pretty open to spend time with dogs or take them on walks. I currently have 4 mini schnauzers at home and provide them with a safe and loving environment. I would bring that same care for your beloved pet.

About: I’ve been around animals almost my whole life and caring for them truly comes naturally to me. I currently have three cats of my own, but I also grew up with dogs starting at the age of 5 and have experience caring for pets of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I regularly help take care of friends’ and families cats and dogs as well, so I’m very comfortable working with animals outside of my own home! I’ve cared for senior dogs who need a slower pace and extra patience, as well as dogs with injuries who require close attention and gentle care. Whether your pet is playful and energetic or shy and laid back, I’ll always make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for like they’re my own. I currently work full time between the hours of 8:30-4 with two days off during the week. I manage my own schedule so I am very flexible and can be wherever, whenever I am needed! I’m an early bird so I’m ready for any needs no matter the time of day: mornings, afternoons or evenings! I am also available and easily flexible on weeks, holidays or long vacations! In my own home, I have set routines for my fur babies. They get fed at the same time every morning and every, water is refreshed every day, and their litter box gets cleaned two times a day. This is the same when I help to take care of friends and families animals; they deserve as much care as my own do! I follow every instruction and maybe even take it a step further because I know that if those were my babies being taken care of, I would want the best care possible for them. I’m very good at sticking to set routines as my priority is always pets come first! I believe this is how every fur baby should be treated and make sure they are comfortable and set in their own homes.

About: I've had pets since I was five years old, and have taken care of dogs for the last five years. I absolutely adore dogs and treat my own as a beloved (perhaps a bit spoiled) member of my family.

I have an extremely flexible schedule since I work from home, and can be available as often as your pet requires me to be. I have availability every day of the week, as well as nights. I am a very reliable and trustworthy person, who wants nothing more than to provide your fur baby with a safe and caring environment. I am also very respectful of others' space.

About: What sets me apart from other pet sitters is my unique combination of skills in puppy training and senior dog care. I use positive reinforcement methods to help puppies develop good habits and social skills, ensuring a smooth transition into adulthood. For senior dogs, I provide compassionate care that includes tailored exercise and medication management to keep them comfortable and healthy. My personalized approach and commitment to open communication ensure that both you and your furry friend feel secure and cared for while you're apart. On workdays, I start my morning with walks and playtime before my shift, setting a positive tone for both myself and the you fur babies! In a client’s home, I prioritize maintaining their pet’s routine to minimize stress. I follow their established schedules for feeding, walks, and playtime, while ensuring that their space remains clean and organized. I provide plenty of attention and affection, and I keep the home environment safe by being mindful of potential hazards. I also communicate regularly with pet owners, sending updates and photos to keep them informed and connected to their furry friends. Whether in my home or a client’s, my goal is to provide a nurturing and engaging experience for every pet in my care.

About: I’ve raised my two adopted puppies and created a safe home for both of them. All the vet visits and training and spending time together on walks helped me learn a lot about them and allowed me to show them that humans can be kind. They have their own personalities and needs. The dog treadmill keeps their stress and anxiety levels low. I groom and trim their claws. I’ve been training my dogs day to day and it never stops amusing me how smart they are. I am currently working part-time and spending time with dogs helps time go by. Weekends are always open. Obviously there are chores to take care of the house but there is always time to tend to the furry friends. I cared for my dogs when they were sick following vets instructions to give certain medications to my dogs. Adopting a dog always comes with challenges and we have overcome many of them. At home I have four rooms and two floors and a fenced backyard. I have three crates and one giant crate. I only use them if I need to run an errand or take care of myself away from the dogs. I try to ventilate the house an much as possible, frequently clean the house and make sure that my pets stay safe, healthy and happy.

About: I’ve been around and caring for dogs since I was 5 years old and have a lifelong love for animals. Over the years I’ve gained experience caring for many different pets, including helping take care of my sister’s three German Shepherds as well as watching friends’ cats and dogs. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, exercise, playtime, and making sure pets feel safe and well cared for while their owners are away. I treat every pet like family and always make their comfort and safety a priority. I run my own business so can make my own schedule to meet with my customers schedules as well. Very flexible on my days and times for stopping by your house. Can let the dogs out inside your fenced in area and sit outside until they come in. Can also do the same if they go on leash or chain around the yard. Will sit outside until it's time to go back in the house.
