Dog Walking Saint Louis Park

“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.”

“Kayla was a life saver for me this past week! I typically work from home but was traveling for work - so Kayla came over during the workdays to take Barley for a walk. She was flexible, responsive, and loving towards my two-year-old golden. She even offered to bring Barley a raincoat when it was raining one day the days! I will definitely be using Kayla again on my next work trip!”

“Daisy loves animals and is very kind. She does this work because she likes it not because she has to . She is easy to work with, responsible and trustworthy. You couldn’t ask for more.”

Candy P.

“Melissa has been a wonderful addition to our list of walkers. She’s reliable, on time, and I know Gable enjoys time with her. I really enjoy the updates from her about their walking adventures. She also responds quickly to any questions or requests. I highly recommend her. She’s great!”

About: Hi, I'm Caitlin! Being a pet parent is special, and I genuinely understand what it means to trust someone with your pet. I lost my 15-year-old dog last year, and that kind of loss changes how you see pet care, and it's exactly why I take this seriously. Every animal in my home gets real attention, a consistent routine, and the kind of care I'd want for my own. My home is a calm, adults-only environment with a fully fenced yard to ensure safe outdoor time, and my neighborhood is a quiet tucked away pocket near Cedar Lake. While I try to board pets only from the same home, there can at times be exceptions (mostly holidays). While my main living area is on one level, there are stairs required to get into the home via the front door. I also welcome & love cats. I've been fostering through Pet Haven for over a year, so I understand what a cat actually needs in a new space (spoiler: it's not just food and good vibes), and how to introduce pets to a decompression space and other pets they are not familiar with. I keep my roster intentionally small so I can give every animal genuine attention, not assembly-line pet care. You'll get photos and updates throughout, so you can actually enjoy your time away. If you want someone who treats your pets the way you would, please send me a message! I'm currently in between jobs, which means I have maximum flexibility for mid-day walks, drop-ins, and check-ins. I only confirm stays I can genuinely support. I build the routine around the pet to the best of my ability. I'll ask you what your animal's schedule looks like at home and do my best to mirror it. I know consistency matters! I treat communication as part of the service. You won't wonder how your pet is doing. At my home: As often as possible I try to start every stay with a meet-and-greet so your pet arrives already familiar with the space and with me. I'll ask you in advance about their routine (feeding schedule, walk preferences, any quirks or triggers) and I follow it to the best of my ability. My home is calm, adults-only, and has a fully fenced yard for dogs. For cats, I set up a dedicated decompression space so they can settle in at their own pace. I typically do not take overlapping bookings unless the pets are from the same household, but there are sometimes exceptions. At your home: I follow whatever directions you leave. I'll send photo updates so you know things are normal, and I'll flag anything that seems off rather than wait until you're home. For cats especially, in-home sitting is often the lower-stress option, and after a year of fostering, I know how to read a cat who's fine versus one who isn't.

“Charles is friendly and caring with my pup,and you can tell he knows what he's doing!”

“Vida seemed very happy and at least slightly tired (not an easy feat for an 8 month old vizsla!) when I got home. It looked like she had a good time with Laura, and I was happy that I was kept in the loop! We'll definitely be repeat customers.”

Katie K.

“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: i’ve been dog walking and pet sitting for two years, in addition I have my own five-year-old pup who I raised and means the world to me. I am patient and dependable, and will always treat your pet with the same attention and love I would want for my own! I am available weekdays and weekends and have flexible hours so I can accommodate if needed, but preferably mornings or afternoons and evenings work best! I have a friendly medium sized dog if they enjoy company otherwise I live right next to a park that they can have long or short leash walks in a very nice area!

“Carly was responsive and did a great job walking Perry. He came back happy and tired.”

About: I have been a veterinary technician since 2009 and wouldn't trade it for anything. I work at an animal hospital 5 blocks away from home, so medical care is always close by if needed. I grew up on a little horse farm and always had animals of all sorts, especially dogs. Though Rob didn't grow up with pets, he now wants to bring in any animal that needs a home. Monday and Tuesday we are both in the office, but everyone is still able to be let out every 4 hours. The other days there is usually someone home most of the day. We recently had, what we like to refer to as, a senior center for elderly cats and dogs. But they have all passed and we now have 2 young large dogs, Gramps and Nana. Small senior dogs have our hearts, and we are more than well trained to care for them. Dont let our dogs size deter you, because they are their favorites too. We typically only take on one family at a time. If there are multiple requests for the same dates we will check with both families and meet the dogs before we consider taking them both on. All dogs are family in our house. They get all the same snuggles and get to sleep in the bed if they normally do. I know I love to get picture updates when my dogs are at the sitters, so I like to do the same. If you're dog is unsure about being around our pets, we do have a lot of space and they can have their own room (our dogs are our kids). Taking care of pets is my job. So if you're pet needs medications, injections, fluids, etc. I am happy to do it. We are available for pet care in our home 7 days a week. If you are needing care in your home that will be on a case by case basis of availability. We supervise everyone while they are outside and have 2 separate fenced in yards. One of the yards is larger and contains an in ground pool. They are only allowed in that yard supervised and if you are comfortable with it. If that's the case, we do like to know ahead of time if you're dog likes to swim. If they do enjoy swimming I am happy to clean their ears afterwards so they don't get those pesky ear infections. We have XL and small crates if your dog needs to be crated at night or when we leave. I also have cameras on them to keep an eye out when we are out of the house. Two days a week we are both at the office. I am able to come home during lunch and let everyone out, then Rob comes home a few hours later. Otherwise someone is usually always home. Everyone usually only stays on the main level of the house, except when spending the day working with Rob they can be in a gated area downstairs. There are also about 4 steps to get in and out of the potty yard. This works well for most dogs, but we do carry our seniors.

“so kind and caring with my dog. Will definitely use her again!”

About: I’ve owned a number of well-trained dogs over the years and all of my friends always comment about how much animals love me! I take care of a number of friends/ acquaintances pets while they are away. I teach full time so I work until 5:30 Monday-Friday but I’m off the clock any time other than that! I’m also able to potty during break. I house/ pet sitting for a number of people in my personal life so I’m accustomed to adapting to whatever lifestyle your pet may need!

“Jeff was fantastic with my pets. He made sure to tend to every detail and took my dog on long walks. My cat requires daily medication, and Jeff made sure to take care of her medical needs every day. He made me feel very comfortable leaving my dog and cat in his care. I will definitely reach out to Jeff again for my pet care needs!”

About: I am a registered nurse in Minneapolis who is looking to pet sit/walk on my days off. I grew up with cats and dogs my entire life, and I was one of the main caretakers for them. I also sit for my coworkers, family, and friends when needed. I am very active and love to bring pets on long/short walks and runs. I work as a registered nurse who works 2-3 12 hour shifts a week. I have many off days to care for your pet for the entire day. I have a fenced yard and safe neighborhood for walking. My house is very clean and decluttered so no animals would get into anything to harm them.

“Lauren was great and our dogs loved her! We would recommend her to anyone!”

“Dafflyn has been great with Granger. She’s helped me during long work days and had great communication. I can tell when I get home that my pup has been well cared for. Highly suggest!”

About: I’ve had cats and dogs most of my life, that's Stella, my 16 year old grand dame best girl in the photo with me. CATS: I've sat for my friend's cats, my daughter's cats and enjoy getting to know and love, oh and respect each cat's unique personality. I've cared for other senior cats, given I.V.'s and meds and lovingly helped kittens adjust to their new homes and their hooman's schedules. DOGS: I adore dogs and they love me! Enough said! I can't wait to meet your cat(s) and care for them in your home! I’m retired, so I have lots of available time to care for your fur-babies! I will feed, play, and snuggle with your cat or dog once or twice a day in your home as you and your pet prefer! After I've met you and your cat(s) or dog(s), and we've planned out your pet's schedule, I will visit your home and put fresh water and food in your cats' or dogs bowls, once or twice a day, walk your dog or scoop the litter box and dispose the waste outside your home, and most importantly, love on your most precious friend and have playtime, either once or twice a day, depending on you and your pet's needs.

“Hailey has been amazing with walking my reactive terrier mix. She is knowledgeable about dog temperments and body language, and keeps an eye out for my dog's reactivity triggers. She is super prompt, communicative and goes above and beyond to meet my dog's needs. Cannot reccomend her enough!”

About: I’ve taken care of cats my whole life, from kittens to seniors, and since I was 12 I’ve watched my friends and neighbors dogs as well. I’ve given both cats and dogs medication as well as bottle fed them if they were too young for solid food. I have an incredibly flexible hybrid work schedule! Whatever you or your pets needs, I will be able to meet them without any work conflicts. You know your pet better than anyone. Whatever instructions you give me to keep them safe, happy, and healthy, I promise to follow exactly. I love animals and my schedule is very flexible, so whenever your needs are, I will do my absolute best to meet them!
