Dog Walking Shoreview

About: I had a family dog growing up and I have experience taking care of dogs of all sizes and ages. I used to volunteer at an animal shelter to walk dogs. I’ve always loved dogs and I will treat your dog like my own. My schedule is very flexible, I am currently looking for work so I am able to watch your dog anytime and stick to whatever routine you already have set! I’m happy to care for your dog in their environment where they feel safe and comfortable. Just let me know if there’s anything I need to know about your dog needs or schedule to ensure their comforts while you’re away.

About: I grew up raising cattle, goats, and horses. I have had pet dogs, cats, and fish all my life. I was a vet tech in my early twenties, and a milk goat and chicken owner in my thirties. My family and I currently live with and care for a dog, cats, and an indoor rabbit. I went through the AKC good citizen training with our current dog, and use only positive behavior strategies. I love all animals, and love to house sit and pet sit for friends and family. I am an elementary special education teacher and currently have the time to pet and house sit for more families in order to make extra income for my kids’ college fund. I am also a master gardener and love caring for plants as well as pets! I am an elementary special education teacher, so I have an open schedule during the summer, weekends, and holidays. I am able to give your pet the time and attention it deserves. I treat my pets as important and treasured members of the family. I promise to treat your pets the same as I treat mine. I take pet sitting very seriously, and will do my very best to make sure your family member is getting lots of love and attention and living its best life while you are away. I know I would want the same in a pet sitter!

About: I live in Columbia Heights with my dog, Oso, my cat, Syd, an Angora bunny & five chickens! With such a full house, I’m comfortable caring for all kinds of pets, each with their own unique needs and personalities. I’ve always loved helping people and being able to do that by giving their furry family members the love, attention, and care they deserve is extra special to me. I use Rover myself when I travel, so I know how reassuring it is to have someone trustworthy looking after your pets while you’re away. I’m a real estate photographer, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of availability for pet care. Whether your pet needs a quick check in, a long walk, or some extra love and attention, I’d be happy to help! Feel free to reach out with any questions, I’d love to meet you and your pets! 🐾 I work as a real estate photographer, which gives me a flexible and ever changing schedule. I often have gaps between shoots throughout the day, making it easy for me to fit in pet check ins, walks, and quality time with animals. The variety in my schedule allows me to be flexible and dependable while still giving pets the attention and care they need. While I don’t currently offer in home boarding because I have a variety of pets of my own, I absolutely love providing care in a pet’s home where they feel most comfortable and at ease. When caring for your pets, my goal is to treat them like they’re my own while respecting the routines, preferences, and instructions you’ve established for them. I’ll follow your lead on everything from feeding schedules and walks to playtime, cuddles, and any special care they may need. I genuinely love animals and find so much joy in getting to know their personalities, keeping them happy and comfortable, and making sure they feel loved while you’re away. Whether that means an energetic play session, a relaxing walk, or simply some extra attention and companionship, I’ll make sure your pets receive plenty of care, patience, and affection!

“Carolina is always reliable and trustworthy! Her regular updates and photos give me peace and mind and a little extra joy getting to see my babies when I’m away.”

About: I grew up around dogs both big and small, cats, and many other furry friends in the house and loved every one of them; I also had the privilege of spending additional time around animals with both my parents being veterinarians. I've house sat for friends and family, walked, and simply loved on many more animals over the years. At this time, I no longer have any pets of my own but adore my parents cat and would love to love on your animals! I am currently working part-time so have a good amount of flexibility and time to love on your sweet pets, whether thats housesitting, walking, or running over to love on them in the afternoon. Your pet is my priority whenever I am with it, whether that is walking or housesitting, and I strive I to give them my best care.

“Rylan is awesome! She really loves animals and it’s very apparent just talking with her! She is a highly recommended walker or for other services!”

About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up with dogs gave me a deep understanding of the unique bond between pets and their families. As an adult, I spent six wonderful years caring for my own Standard Poodle, which taught me the nuances of high-energy breeds, regular grooming needs, and the importance of daily mental stimulation. What sets me apart is the same dedication I bring to my role as a leader and a parent. I approach pet care with patience, reliability, and a keen eye for detail. Whether it’s maintaining a consistent routine, ensuring safety, or simply providing extra cuddles, I treat every dog in my care with the same love and attention I would give my own. You can trust that your furry family member is in capable, caring hands. I work from home 3 out of 5 days. I don't live far from my office, so on the days I work in the office, I can come home for walks. When hosting pets in my home, my top priority is creating a safe, welcoming, and calm environment. I believe that a dog’s comfort comes from consistency and genuine care, which is why I prioritize maintaining your pet's established routines regarding feeding, exercise, and rest. My home is perfectly set up for active and happy dogs. We have a decent-sized, secure yard for quick outdoor play, and we are located in a highly walkable neighborhood with easy access to local parks and trails, perfect for daily sniff-and-stretch walks. What makes my home unique is that your pet will be part of our family. My 4-year-old child is a huge animal lover who enjoys helping with gentle care, like supervised playtime and giving treats. Because my child is so involved, I am very intentional about ensuring that every dog I host is comfortable around children and that interactions are always calm, supervised, and positive. Whether it’s a quiet afternoon of belly rubs or an energetic walk on a nearby trail, I ensure every guest feels right at home. You can rest easy knowing your pet is in a secure, loving environment where they will be treated like one of our own.

About: I have a deep love for animals and truly enjoy the process of connecting with them. For me, it’s more than just "watching" a pet; I love learning about their unique personalities, specific traits, and individual needs to ensure they feel safe and happy while their owners are away. PS - If you are wanting a house sit it is just me and not Thomas since we live in different areas now. Unfortunately we got an update from our housing authority (in Minneapolis) that we aren't supposed to have dogs 50 lb or more in the condo, so we can not accept bigger dogs unless its for a short duration. Thomas is a homebody and just goes into his art studio for a couple of hours in St Paul Mon-Fri. His hours are very flexible usually from 11:30am-3pm and can be less if needed to be home with a pet. My schedule is also flexible as I do online sales. I put my clients needs first! Ultimately I'm working for you so I want your cares and concerns to be met. I am very happy to use your toys to play with your pet as well as pamper them. Give them just enough attention and space to warm up to me. Let me know if your pets have any dietary needs. I have experience taking care of pets with seizures as well and giving their medicine in with their daily meals.

About: I've had dogs and cats all my life growing up. I've owned everything from brand new puppies to rescues. As an adult, my friends, family, and coworkers trust me to watch their pets when they go out of town. I am also currently employed at a doggy daycare and have had to go through over 10 hours of training modules. I love to travel around the cities, I have lots of time during evenings and weekends. I look forward to helping you with all of your pet needs. I will provide the best care for your pet as possible. I will treat them like I treat my own pets. They will be very loved and cared for.

“Victoria was great and super accommodating to my last minute needs! She took great care of my puppy and i will definitely be using her in the future!”

About: I've cared for dogs, cats, and small animals my entire life, both my own and for friends or neighbors. Working in environmental conservation, I naturally love animals and being outdoors, and I volunteered at a shelter for several years. I enjoy exploring local trails and would love to bring your dog on a run or hike whenever I get the chance. I live near a dog park, and I bring fresh water and waste bags on every trip. I am attentive to all your pets needs and can administer basic medications. I work part-time in the evenings so will have plenty of time throughout the day to feed, exercise, and care for your pet! I live in a standalone house, my neighborhood has trails and a dog park, and I have a large yard. I like taking long walks and making sure your pet gets their energy out. I go above and beyond for you and your beloved pet, sending photos and checking in with you regularly. They will have plenty of space in my home. If I am house sitting, I care for your home as well, including cleaning or bringing in your mail. I have a green thumb so will be attentive to any plants you have that may need care, too.
