Dog Walkers in Shafer, MN

About: I not only will walk your dog but I provide dog waste removal from your yard as well. Additional fees apply. I provide many different services I currently work an early am shift part time. I am available every day after 10:00am. I work in loss prevention so I understand the importance of taking care of property that isn’t mine as if it was. I also have three kids that absolutely love animals. Ages 13, 12, and 9. We are fully insured as well. I care in every way possible. This can be walks with shorter intervals or a normal pace. It all depends on the clients request. All dogs deserve to walk the neighborhood and sniff trees and we can make that happen.

About: Hi! I’m based in St. Croix Falls and share my life with two rescue dogs, Frank and Bentley. I moved here from Washington State, where I built up all my current Rover reviews. It’s been a few years since then, but now that I’m in the Midwest, I’m excited to add some new ones! My Animal Experience: * Household Pets: Dogs, cats, rabbits, snakes, lizards, rats, mice, and more * Farm Animals: Horses (mini to draft), cows, pigs, sheep, llamas, goats, waterfowl, and more I’ve done it all—scooped litter boxes, mucked stalls, played fetch until my arm ached, changed bandages, held my bladder so I wouldn’t disturb a purring house panther, collected mail, thrown hay and grain, watered plants, administered meds, clipped nails, and, of course, handed out a million hugs and kisses. Your fur baby will always receive the same love, care, and attention I give my own. I have tons of glowing references and can’t wait to meet (and spoil) your furry family member! I’m currently not working, so I’m available all day, seven days a week—including holidays. I’m happy to accommodate early mornings, late nights, and even last-minute requests. When I’m in a client’s home, I make it a priority to follow the pet’s normal routine and schedule. This helps ease the anxiety of having someone new in their space while their parents are away. I also respect your privacy—I know how it feels to have someone go through your belongings, and I could never imagine violating that trust.

“Michael made sure to check in with us with pictures and let us know how each walk went. He was super sweet with our big pup. We have a pitbull who has a tendency to pull on the leash sometimes and if he can handle that he can probably handle your dog great as well! I could tell he really cared. I'd trust him to help us again if needed in the future!”

About: dog are not pets they’re family, and I will treat them with the same love and respect you would a child. I have some dog training from my time working with an animal rescue. I have two cats, an out black domestic short hair who does come inside on occasion and a bambino Sphinx. Yes you can come see the Sphinx. I will take great care of your fur baby if it be walking, playing, them sleeping over, and grooming. I’ll even make them treats for their birthday, and get them a gift. Over night stays will require a meet with my cats and younger child to assure their will be no issues. Give me a call and rest assured they will be happy dogs!

Also, if you are new you can click this link and save $20 on your first booking!!! https://www.rover.com/sit/maiahk93978 I am currently a SAHM but I have babysitters that I can utilize when a job comes up! Who doesn’t love animals?! I unfortunelty don’t get to own one due to my family having allergies which is why I would love to be apart of this service! I will follow any schedule YOU set! It’s all about their schedule and how they feel safe best! I feel as though I have a gentle demeanor which will hopefully help with the more skittish ones.

About: I have pet sat both dogs and cats before and have lots of experience with both animals as I have my own. I have experience with all ages and sizes of dogs and am happy to help out with whatever needs you may be. My schedule is very open so feel free to reach out with any questions. I am able to offer dog sitting for any amount of time and can provide as many potty breaks as you think is necessary. I am good with sticking to a schedule which is another reason I will be a good pick for the job. I have a strong love for pets and can't wait to help out and love your pets just as much as you do. I work full time but half of the day I work from home so I have a lot of open time. My weekends are also very open. I will care for your pets just as I would for for my own pets. I will also care for them just as you instruct me to.

About: I have had my own dogs the last 18 years. I've had big and small dogs. I absolutely love all animals. My German shepherd was a special needs dog that was diagnosed with megaesophogus disease. She has since passed but we did everything to take care of her needs and keep her healthy and happy with that devastating diagnosis. I have had a black lab and a coonhound. I am willing to do anything and everything for dogs. I just absolutely love dogs. I currently have 3 dogs myself and they are my life so I understand how animals are a part of the family and each one is special. I have 2 young pups that I adopted and a beagle that is an old man.

About: I've had dogs and cats all my life. I am the type to keep my dogs active whether it be playing fetch in the yard or throwing the stick in the lake for them to fetch. I believe in lots of play toys and chewys so they never get bored. I also understand the dog who might be more calm, maybe a little shy and likes time alone, and that is very understandable. I am a retired nurse and know pretty well the signs and symptoms of pain or discomfort. I understand the importance of proper nutrition and availability of fresh water. I lost my 14 yr. old lab to old age 2 years ago, and just recently got a new yellow lab puppy here in March. I really missed having a travel companion! I'm a unique pet/house sitter in that I travel in my beautiful Canadian Roadtrek Campervan and can house "watch" while taking care of your pets. I do not need to stay in your home. Any additional duties other than "watch" your house can be negotiated- like water a few houseplants, etc. I do ask that you provide a household electric (120V) outside plug in. My small RV uses approx. $2-$3 per day of electricity. I love animals. I have a yellow Labrador myself! I travel often in my RV and we make great travel partners often stopping at dog parks 2-3 times a day on our adventures. Beau would love to have playmates! I can only provide mobile pet/house sitting. I am unable to pet sit in the home I live in. I am a recently retired nurse. I am trained not only in human CPR, but I also have dog and cat CPR training. I have given pets medication, induced vomiting -per instructions while on the phone with a vet tech (after dog ate 1 1/2 lbs of bing cherries - pits and all. Happy ending! :). When I go into a home I find myself scanning countertops and floors for potential hazards for pets - things like medications, foods, hot boiling water on stovetop with handles pointing out, etc... I am constantly monitoring for potential dangers. Sometimes things happen though, unfortunately, that can't be avoided and that's when first aid, CPR, poison control line, and Vet info should all be available and handy. I ask that all instructions be written down and text/emailed to me 24 hours prior. That way if I have any questions, they can be answered before you leave on your relaxing worry-free vacation!

About: I’ve worked at multiple doggy day cares near Forest Lake MN and I have 2 dogs of my own! I love all animals and treat them like my own! I’m a college student who needs to make more money than what I’m currently making and I’m pretty available Monday through Friday depending on the times! My dogs are walked everyday and played with all the time! I understand the time it takes to care for a dog or cat and so I’m very patient with them.

“So responsive and helpful!!! Gave me huge peace of mind knowing my dog was in good hands.”

I’m pretty flexible and open to accommodating the needs you require to be met. I’m a very upfront and honest person with the biggest heart towards any fur baby! I look forward to speaking with you :) I work full time from home, but am able to step out here and there to attend to your pets every need. I’m more than willing to work something out. :) With whatever it may be that your pets usual routine is, or what their schedule is like, I am willing to figure out a course of action to make it seem like it’s just another day for them, to keep them as safe, comfortable and happy as you would.

About: I just recently had to put my 14.5 year old Yorkie Poo to rest. I miss having a buddy at my house but not ready to take on another animal full time yet. I supported my dog through pancreatitis, congestive heart failure and other health considerations. We had him since he was a couple months old until his golden years. I have watched other family members, friends and neighbor’s dogs and always treat them like my own! I currently work from home as a Master’s level Social Worker and have very flexible hours. My children are at school during the day and in summer care during the summer months. The pet would be with me with most of the time, outside of errands. *Please reach out in a message regarding availability! My availability changes and I would like to give you the most up to date information! Thank you!* I currently do not have any animals in the house. I can take the dog on walks and out to use the restroom throughout the day as I do not have a fenced in yard. I have a large yard if your dog can be trusted off leash with supervision. I love to have dogs snuggle, so they are just like any other family member, allowed on the furniture. I will be home to either schedule feed, have the graze eat or kennel as requested.
