Dog Walkers in Solway, MN

About: I’ve always had dogs growing up, so caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life. Along with my personal experience caring for pets, I also have a background working with children through Early Head Start and as a pediatric nurse in both clinic and hospital settings. My experience has made me very patient, attentive, dependable, and calm under pressure. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I’ll always treat them with the same love and care I would my own. I work three 12-hour shifts each week, which gives me several days off and flexibility throughout the week. On my days off, I have plenty of time for walks, drop-ins, playtime, and giving pets the attention and care they need. I’m organized, dependable, and able to balance my work schedule while still providing reliable and consistent care for pets. Your pets will always be treated with the same love, patience, and attention that I give my own.

About: Hi, I’m John! I’m here to help fill the gap for you. I only allow one client in my home at a time to give your dog the attention they deserve. *Note* while typically I mainly do dog boarding, I am available to do drop in visits and dog walking until 6/21/26 If you would prefer a meet and greet before you bring them over for a long stay, let me know what time works best for! I offer pick up services for your pet if you don’t have time to drop them off as long as you are within a reasonable distance and it doesn’t conflict with my work schedule. Let me know how I can help! I work from home full-time during the week and my job allows me to give attention as needed. I typically give potty breaks every 2 hours We’re pet people, too. I allow pets on my furniture. I feed my dog in the morning but can do as many meals as you require and feed your pup separately if they’re good aggressive.

About: I've had pets since I was 8 years old. Started with dogs and cats, then horses, cows and chickens! I've cared for babies, young animals, middle age animals and senior animals. I've got a pretty flexible work schedule, sometimes I work from home and sometimes I’m on the road. My two dogs are extremely friendly and great with all people! My male dog generally doesn’t get along with other male dogs. I've done extensive obedience, rally and agility work with both of them. I would love to drop in on your dogs or cats during the day to let them get some of their energy out! I could always go for a good walk too! Feel free to ask me anything, I'm not shy. Can't wait to meet you and your animals! I work from home sometimes and on the road sometimes. My schedule is pretty variable. When I’m available, I can stop in and check on things reliably. I follow all directions exactly as they’re given to me. I love when pet parents leave me written instructions with lots of details! I always follow the pet’s lead for activities and play as much or as little as they want. If they just need some pets and snuggles, I’m good with that too.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats (along with other animals) my whole life! I grew up with dogs and haven’t known a house without them! My family currently has 6 dogs (14, 7,5,4 ,2,11 weeks) and we just recently had to put down our dog who was 12. I was her primary caretaker ensuring she got all of her meds and that she was comfortable. I also do a majority of the puppy training when we do get new dogs! Along with dogs my family has 2 cats (11,5), 2 fish, and 2 hamsters! To say I’ve been taking care of animals my whole life is an understatement! Along with that I also volunteer at my local animals shelter! I currently work part time along with being in school. My days are pretty open in the mornings! I’m open for house sitting all day/night on weekends and then in the morning on weekdays! I have class during some parts of the day but only for an hour. I work from 4-9 Monday - Friday but I am more than willing to work after that! I am currently unable to take care of any pets in my home but I am more than willing to travel to take care of yours! I would make sure to honor their space (and your of course)!

About: I have experience not just with dogs and cats but with farm animals (goats, horses, chickens, etc) and small mammals (rabbits, mice, guinea pigs, etc). For dogs, I have experience with everything from young puppies to senior citizens and understand all their individual needs. I have helped out family and friends with their beloved pets over the years. I drive school bus so I work from 6-8:30 am and 2-5pm but have plenty of time between/after those hours to spend with your pet. I treat your pets as my own when I am in their house (and I have 6 dogs and 3 cats that I would rope the moon for).

About: I have been around dogs almost every day of my life :) I have worked with all kinds of breeds! I absolutely love them and I love spending my time around them. I am open most weekends and after 3pm on weekdays! Although I am able to come home at anytime from 7am-3pm for walks, bathroom breaks, or eating. I have two other dogs in the home to keep other dogs company. If there is any issues with other dogs I have a nice garage to keep either my or other dogs comfortable!

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life! I can offer just about everything when caring for your puppers, I absolutely adore dogs. I have a 5 year old black lab, Ryker. He’s my first born haha, and just recently adopted a female black lab, Oakley. We are thinking she’s around 6. I am married, my husband Nicholas loves animals just as much as I do. We are both Marine Corps Veterans. I’ve cared for dogs as soon as from when they were born. I love taking my dog on walks and to the dog park so I would love caring for others fur babies when you are in need of someone to help out! I am currently working from home so I can watch your dogs at any time, my schedule is pretty open on nights, weekends and holidays as well. I have extra dishes big or small. I do not have a fenced in yard but I always make sure dogs that I’m watching are on a leash. Regardless of how well behaved the dog is, I do not want them running off or getting hurt.

About: I have been a pet owner for 30years and worked at a kenneling business for 12 years I also done limited grooming and training basics I have 4 friendly dogs and a kitty who love to play I have a strong bond with dogs and cats animals are my passion I treat them as though they r my children

About: Hello! I have grown up with pets my entire life and have spent the past couple of years learning how to care for cats and dogs. I have helped raise dogs from puppies to adulthood with everything from grooming to exercise. The breeds I have the most experience with are Labrador and Maltese dogs. For training, I have experience both in training my own dogs and carrying on the training set by the owners of the dogs I watch over. I love to exercise with pets and enjoy walking with them alongside playing with toys. I have no preferences when it comes to pets as I will happily care for and love them all! I work a part time job with a very flexible schedule so I am easily able to fit pet care into my weekly schedule alongside care for my own animals. I am experienced with both crate-trained and free roaming pets. I am also keen on pet welfare to ensure the animal’s physical safety and happiness.

About: I have cared for all kinds of animals since I could remember, from raccoons, rats, horses, and Guinea pigs to your more normal cats and dogs and lizards. I currently have a pup so I do pet care every day all day. She is a part of my family so she is never lacking when it comes to her care and exercise. I currently live in a townhouse and I don’t have a yard so we go for long walks on the edge of town multiple times a day as well as car rides. In my clients home I use the resources they have available (big yard either fenced or not) or we will just go for walks throughout the day. I make the care of the client the priority.
