Dog Walkers in Saint Wendel, MN

About: I have had a dog since middle school. I had a standard poodle, and now my family has a golden retriever. I have lived with roommates in college with a chocolate lab and a rescue puppy. I am currently in my hometown for the summer months and looking to earn a little money before grad school. I love dogs and have a lot of experience with a multitude of different dogs due to family, roommates, and friends. I love to go on walks and understand the stress it causes owners to be away from home so long without being able to take their pet out to use the bathroom/walk. I would love to help in that regard! I will have respect for your home and dog’s/your safety. I prefer instructions so I can meet all your requests! Obviously there is a lot of trust needed for this type of work and I want to make sure to respect that.

“Out of town plans for both my husband and I. Miranda was able to come to our house and I let her in using my garage app to open the door. I'm sure Rosco was excited to see her and go for a walk. Super nice service and she was reliable.”

About: ​I have been surrounded by dogs and cats my entire life, learning from a young age exactly what it takes to keep pets happy, safe, and comfortable. Whether your fur baby needs a high-energy walk, a strict feeding schedule followed, or just some dedicated cuddle time, I treat every animal as if they were my own. I'm incredibly attentive to their body language and daily routines to ensure they feel right at home. Im currently working a part time job at the hospital so I have plenty of time for your furry friends!! Im available at any time!! I live in an apartment with two of my own fur babies. I have a huge yard out front and back and live in a nice community area good for walking dogs. My apartment is very spacious for any animals coming over and my cats are very friendly and adapted to all types of animals.

About: *Note I go by Danny, but Rachel is my legal name. And then my partner Morgan sometimes helps me out on my visits. About me: I have taken care of cats all my life, and when it comes to dogs I've babysat more than I can count. I love them all. I can handle gentle types. Even loud ones. Let me know if they need special commands or to be talked to. I love to talk personally with the animals and just be with them. :) This is my primary job for now, so I would be available whenever YOU want. I also work with my 3 lovely cats on a daily basis. If I have your pet at my home, they will mostly be just for walks. We could sit and watch TV at home, or maybe learn something new? I like to grow with the animal.

About: Hi, my name is Valleri. I am a 25 year old college student, working on my degree. I have been around animals my entire life. I love all animals regardless of shape, size, or age. I have been pet sitting since I was 12 years old. I grew up with 4 large dogs and 2 cats at home, along with several different exotic pets including a lizard, a bird, hamsters, and Guinea pigs (at different times) I run a very loving and compassionate home, I have a Golden Retriever named Rasa (7) and a Lab named Samhain (3) and a Ball Python named Cressa (2). I am highly responsible and easy to contact. I take caring for your pet very seriously, I am always willing to go the extra mile to make a pet have an exceptional time and to ensure that you are satisfied with my services. Professional references are available upon request. If you are looking for someone to be around your pet all day long, giving then love, walks, and affection, I am perfect for the job! I'm currently not taking classes and only working part-time, so I have plenty of time to give your pets some extra love! From walking to playing to just being near. I'm always happy to gobthe extra mile for a furry face. I am happy to keep your fur babies entertained in any way needed, from exercise to games, to sitting on a couch so they don't feel alone. Any and every specific need your pet requires!

About: Guaranteeing love, attention, and compassion when you need to step away from home regardless for length of time or reason. I am highly dedicated to my families and their furry family members. I add a touch of difference with the care I provide to all of the animals I work with in that I treat each one individually and never work in a "cookie cutter" approach. I started working with and training animals (horses and dogs) at the age of fifteen. Throughout the years, my interest and passion with animals grew, as well as my experience. I currently have two dogs, a german shepherd and a very entertaining rescue mix. With my german shepherd, we are a K9 team with a search and rescue organization where we are called upon by law enforcement only for people who go lost or missing throught the upper Midwest. I still currently train dogs of all breeds, ages, and temperaments, in addition to training service dogs through an individually owned local business. Due to my long-term experience, I am able to adapt to your pets' individual needs with age, both young and old. I am trained in pet first-aid and CPR, and I am comfortable with any prescribed medical care needs you may have necessary for them. I truly enjoy building a sincere bond and connection with each family I encounter so that when they step away, they can feel at ease and enjoy their time without distress or worry. Topnotch care is my priority! I have decided after many years of working in family care industries, that my remaining years, I want to follow what was my childhood dream. Working with animals, yet still getting to keep my other passion, family care. I couldn't ask for a better combination. With my many years of experience, I always adapt my care to each of my pets needs. As I previously had mentioned I don't believe in "cookie cutter care" approach. I tailor my care to each pets individual needs and concerns.

About: When I was little I used to rescue dogs from the street and take them home to bathe them and feed them. My mom helped me find them a house or sometimes we stayed with them. I know the importance and respect they deserve. I work and take care of my house, currently I don't have any time to invest in anything other than that. That's why I'm currently quitting my job to try something more different. I will only walk dogs, I live in an apartment so for the moment no animals can enter. I apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.

About: I grew up having dogs my whole life- both large and small. I have a home with my mini schnauzer, Gus, in Sartell. I am responsible and caring! I am willing to care for as many pets as needed. If you have any questions please ask! I can’t wait to meet you and your pet! Thank you for your time! :) I work full time, but enjoy coming home to my pet on my lunch to snuggle. I also love taking my dog for long walks morning and evening! Another pet would fit in perfectly! I care for all pets as if they are my own. I also am available to help with pet care for weddings and other events! I care for other pets as I would my own! I understand how stressful it can be for dogs to be away from their paw-rents so I try to ensure they are safe and happy as can be!

“Amazing walk with my dog! It was a little hot so she accommodated the walk to the grass outside our home. On time, very patient with our dog who is nervous around new people. Sent pictures to update us. 10/10 would book again.”

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and have hosted over 30 foster dogs for our local Humane Society. Some of our foster mamas have even given birth to their puppies at our home. I currently have a wonderful golden retriever, Mya, who is always happy to meet new friends. Mya and I enjoy hiking, camping, and spending as much time outside as possible. I have a horse (not on the property) and have had a variety of pets over the years including rabbits, guinea pigs, cats, chickens and sheep.

About: Hello! My name is Siona, and growing up in the Caribbean around animals has given me years of hands on experience caring for pets of different sizes, ages, and temperaments. In addition to personal pet care experience, I worked as a veterinary assistant, where I gained experience handling animals, observing behavior, and supporting their daily needs. I am patient, reliable, and attentive to each pet’s unique personality and routine. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or simply providing companionship, I strive to make every pet feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for. I am also fluent in four languages: English, Spanish, Dutch, and Papiamentu. This allows me to communicate effectively with a diverse range of pet owners and provide a welcoming experience for both pets and their families. As a university student with a flexible schedule, I am able to provide reliable pet care throughout the week. My classes and part-time work allow me to plan ahead and dedicate quality time to each pet’s needs. Whether your pet needs feeding, walks, playtime, medication reminders, or companionship, I am committed to maintaining their routine and ensuring they receive attentive care while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. As a former veterinary assistant, I have experience handling animals, recognizing signs of stress or discomfort, and providing care in a calm and patient manner. I follow all owner instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, exercise routines, and any special care requirements. Whether caring for pets in your home or during visits, I strive to create a safe, clean, and low stress environment where pets feel comfortable, secure, and loved.

About: I strive to provide the care and professionalism that I need and expect to be provided to my own pets. Dogs are wonderful creatures that deserve proper love and attention integrated into their family life. I have experience with successful training of my own dog's basic obedience skills (sit, stay, heel, eat, touch, shake, etc). Have taken care of many other dogs, reptiles, and fish for people in my life. I am especially interested in helping reactive dogs or dogs with behavioral issues. I work freelance so I set my own schedule for the most part. Completely flexible for clients needs. A few weeks of the year I'm booked for longer gigs but that is easily identifiable up front for potential clients. Care for clients is completely dependent on their needs and comforts. I will always defer to the client for what is needed for them and their environment. Open and honest communication is the foundation for care and comfortability.

About: I have some experience taking care of neighborhood dogs and cats, but most of my care experience comes from the animals I grew up with in my own home. I grew up with bigger dogs most of my childhood and even had a cat for a short time! I love all animals, big or small. I am a student who is quite involved on campus. I may have some availability during the day, but mostly in the evenings and on weekends. When at your place, I am comfortable taking your pups on walks, playing with them inside or outside, and doing really anything else they may need. I also love playing with cats or cuddling up with either of your pets on the couch if they just need some affection while you’re away.

“Great care”

About: Hi, I’m Stephanie—an animal care professional with 13+ years of hands-on experience and a lifelong passion for creating safe, enriching, and loving environments for animals of all kinds. My journey has taken me from the wilderness of Alaska*, where I raised and cared for a team of Alaskan Husky sled dogs, to leadership roles in animal welfare—working my way up to Operations and CSR Lead at an animal shelter, while also serving as a Client Experience Coordinator at a busy animal emergency hospital. In early 2025, I proudly founded my own rescue, Pawsitive Tales Rescue, where I continue to advocate for and care for vulnerable animals in need. Animals aren’t just my career—they’re my life. Whether I’m caring for playful puppies, senior dogs, shy cats, or medical-needs pets, I bring patience, experience, and genuine compassion to every animal I meet. My background in shelter medicine, emergency veterinary care, rescue work, and behavior gives me the confidence to care for pets with a wide variety of personalities and needs. When I’m not working, you’ll find me outdoors adventuring with my retired sled dogs and my corgi—usually hiking, exploring, or chasing the next view. The mountains have my soul, but my heart belongs to every kitty and pup I’ve had the privilege to love. If you’re looking for someone experienced, dependable, and deeply passionate about animal welfare, your pets will be in caring and capable hands with me.
