“Xinia has been a blessing in my life! Bingo is so lucky to have an amazing walker that goes out of her way to ensure my bingo is well taken care of and most importantly she makes sure my bingo is loved! Xinia has been very patient with my bingo as it takes her time to trust new people, but Xinia has done and outstanding job being patient & caring towards her. I would recommend her to anybody that’s looking for a a sitter, or a walker! 12/10 from me!”

About: Growing up with two Labrador Retrievers and a Shih Tzu, I am well-versed in the needs and personalities of both large and small breeds. I worked at the home of someone who bred German Shepards for 2 years, caring for 10 dogs at a time and completing tasks such as bathing, walking, feeding, giving medicine, and cleaning up after. I also have multiple years of experience caring for friends & families pets. My priority is to ensure every dog feels safe, loved, and happy under my attentive watch. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or just some extra cuddles, your dog will be treated like one of my own. I’m currently working part time at a restaurant, so my schedule is very flexible! On days that I do work, I start at 3pm or 4pm and work until 9-10:30pm depending on the night, giving lots of flexibility with my availability. I have experience caring for pets in friends and families homes as well as a job working with German shepards where I tended to the dogs at my employers home, and I treat each persons home & pets with the utmost respect. I recognize it is a lot to trust someone inside your home. I value communication during these times to ensure comfortability on both sides!
About: Growing up in a house of animals, and having a small zoo of my own (2 dogs and 2 cats), I have a lot of experience taking care of animals. I have dog and cat sat for friends for years. I am currently available for Drop ins and Walks. I try to spend a bare minimum of 15 minutes with any drop in to make sure they get all the attention that they need. As the owner of a 15 lb dog and a 80 lb dog, I understand that all Walks aren't created equal. My Walks always vary based off of the needs of the dog. I am also an avid cat lover. I am more than happy to stop by and feed, clean the litter box, and snuggle/play with your feline friends. Currently I work full time on the West side of the cities, but I have Sundays and Mondays off to help with your animal needs. My hope is to expand my availability over time. My current weekend lines up with some weekdays. I spend most of those days out and about, so I'd love to check in on some cute animal while I am at it! Slow and steady is always best. I am a believer in letting animals come to you. I have experience with a kennel trained and unkennel trained dogs. As the owner of a 15 lb dog and a 80 lb dog, I am experienced in walking all sizes of dogs.
About: I grew up on a hobby farm taking care of a variety of animals. I have done senior care for dogs and cats previously. I have two cats of my own (neutered males) who are easy to get along with. I have worked with dogs and cats as young as 8 weeks old through their entire lifespan. I am happy to do senior care. I have pet sit for a variety of families before. I currently work full time but a flexible schedule. If you need someone to drop in midday to walk your dog or check in on your pet I’m happy to do that. I also wake up early to take care of my two cats. My job can be remote so if needed I can stay home for specific times. My two cats usually sleep most of the day. I do not have a fenced yard. I live in a three bedroom with the cat boxes in the basement but scooped and cleaned regularly. I have multiple cat trees and many cat toys. My two cats also usually play with each other or sleep the day away. I am used to protecting client privacy, so your information will always stay secure.
About: I've lived with dogs my whole life- from 10 lbs to 50 lbs to 80 lbs, dogs are my FAVORITE! I couldn't imagine a life where I didn't come home to my pups! My full time job is dogs!! I've been dog sitting for 2 years, caring for up to 4 dogs at a time! I'm very active and would love to play outside with your pups or run with them! I love playing fetch, tug of war, but especially cuddling! I've been through training classes myself with my own dogs, and along the way learned a lot of good cues! I'll treat your pup with all the love and time I give my own, I know I'd want that for my dog when I was gone!
About: I have had and lived with dogs for about 20 years and first pet sat (chickens and two cats) at about age twelve (~14 years ago). I have been watching animals (mostly dogs) with frequency since about age 13. I began by watching the neighbor's dog on occasion, and a couple years later spent the summer volunteering in an animal shelter (cats and dogs). After moving to Minnesota, I began to watch my aunts' dogs and cat when they would go out of town and watched, walked, and cared for my roommate's cat and neighbors' dogs between 2020 and 2024. I still watch my aunts' dog Cinnamon for them periodically and sometimes walk their neighbors' dogs. I grew up with a three-legged golden/lab mix, and following that and other experiences, dogs with special needs such as senior and disabled dogs hold a special place in my heart, as do dogs with anxiety or nervousness. While I have the most experience with dogs, I have also cared for and/or spent time with other pets and critters including cats, chickens, hermit crabs, exotic birds, and goats! I am a recent graduate working very part time while I work on next steps. This fortunately means that I am often free while others are at work during the day and accordingly happy to walk, feed, and keep pets company when you are away. I am generally a calm and put-together type of person. If I am hired to stay over with a dog or cat--as opposed to simply walking/taking them out or feeding them--you can expect me to play with them if they want, or curl up on the couch with a good book if all they want is company/cuddles. My super power with dogs is regulating myself to help regulate them--something I learned working with anxious shelter dogs--I have lost count of the number of times I've heard variations on "I've never seen her/him this calm/friendly meeting someone before."
“Sy has been a lifesaver helping me with Lilly during the week!! She was super quick to respond to my initial request, which I was so grateful for because I needed services suddenly. And to top it all off, Lilly loves her so I feel like she’s in great hands whenever I’m gone! She goes above and beyond, even helping me with her medication when I asked. And she seems to really care about Lilly’s wellbeing, like she’s her own. Definitely recommend!!”
About: I have been told that pets are more comfortable with me than other people they've met- which is great because I love animals, ever since I was small! I am passionate about making sure that your pet is taken care of to the highest degree- as a member of your family, they deserve the utmost care. I have experience with cats, dogs and rats. These include animals of all ages (baby and senior included), dispositions (nervous & confident, low & high energy), and sizes (I am most familiar with small and medium breeds, but I am comfortable with big breeds too!). I work part-time, and am looking to fill my schedule doing something I love. I currently work Thursdays and Saturdays, and am otherwise able to work around your schedule unless I have important appointments. I love getting to know new animal friends! I understand that just like people, some are quick to open up and for others it takes more time. I take a gentle and open approach, letting your pet set the pace for the interaction. Since you know them best, your animals will be taken care of to your specifications. Unless otherwise specified, I will send you pictures of your pets so you can feel confident in the quality of your pet's care.
“Remy is great with my dog! She is communicative and thorough. I know my dog is in great care with her. She is also a great photographer and sends the best pictures! I highly recommended Remy!”
“I am so happy I chose Carolyn. My dog sometimes takes a while to warm up to people, but she liked Carolyn right away. Carolyn is an excellent and prompt communicator, which I really appreciate; my dog always looks so happy when Carolyn sends me pictures from their walks. Thank you so much for all your hard work, Carolyn!!”
About: My names Jeremiah and I'd love to take care of your pet. Been around pets my whole life. Mainly cats, but I love all animals. Most pets I've known or taken care of before have warmed up to me quick cause I let them get comfortable at their own pace and show lots of love and patience. Owned many cats myself and have gotten really engaged with taking care of other relatives or friends of relatives pets. I enjoy watching sports and trying out new food and going places I haven't been before. Huge fan of history and reading in my spare time. Avid fan of sleeping and eating more food than I should but always get things done on time. If a zombie apocalypse were to happen I'd be the one you'd want in your group
“Sharron does a great job and communicates well with us on schedule adjustments. Fiona my Goodendoodle waits at the door for her to pull up to the house and is excited to see her every walk.”

Sarah did an excellent job walking Hazel while our family was out of town. She was on time, friendly and great with an energetic lab. She paid special attention when we let her know that Hazel gets anxious while around other dogs and on a leash, and came up with some tricks to ease her anxiety. We’d absolutely recommend Sarah to anyone needing a dog walker!
Xinia has been great with my dog! She shows up on time is very kind to my Frenchie Harriet and even gets her stubborn doggie butt to go on a walk with her. Harriet is usually difficult to walk for strangers as she just stops and acts stubborn. The last time Xinia walked her Harriet was excited to see her for a walk! This is has been wonderful for me since I can't walk her for a while as I just had foot surgery.
Claire was awesome! She took great care of my pupper on their daily walks, and was clear and communicative. Followed all my directions and was even nice enough to give me pup some extra time when he was anxious about construction workers at my building. Will definitely be hiring her again :)
Siri was fantastic with my two labs. She showed up on time, took them for a long walk and returned back exactly as we asked. The girls loved her and have found a new friend. We have already booked her for another week. Highly recommend Siri to care for your animals.
Kerry’s passion and knowledge about dogs is a gift! I’m so thankful that she walks my Fred and shares her knowledge with me. Fred is comfortable and calm when I get home. Fred enjoys his time with Kerry. Kerry is also dependable and responsive, proactive and observant. My goodness, Kerry is a gem.
