Dog Walking South Saint Paul

About: I grew up with cats, dogs, a bearded dragon, and a whole lot of fish. I have a soft spot for spicy cats as I have one of my own. Currently, live in a space where I can't have a dog but if I could it would be a loveable rescue who loves to play and to go on walks. I've taken care of many friends and family pets over the years and excited to make some new furry (and scaly) friends! Through the summer my schedule is very flexible. I work at an elementary school as a reading tutor so during the school year I am available late afternoons/evenings and weekends. I am organized, outgoing, and friendly and as long as you have detailed instructions I feel confident taking care of your pets in your home.

“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!”

“Carrie was amazing! Great communication, on time and great pictures of our dog for her walks! Millie seemed like she had a blast with Carrie and had lots of play dates with her dog! I felt very comfortable leaving Millie in her hands. Thanks again!”

“Isabella was reliable, punctual, and communicative. Isabella sent reports and photos daily. Luna was excited to walk with her every day and came home weel exercised,ready to rest!”

“Kristine does a great job with my dog. He can be stubborn or get scared on walks and want to go home. If that is the case she will stay and play with him in the backyard. But she also gets creative and communicates with me on strategies to get him to walk and it has worked. Overall great communication and very timely. Would recommend her to walk or care for your dog.”

Laura L.

“Erin was a life saver this week! With my husband out of town for a week and me with my hands full with a three year old and baby, getting out to walk our energetic and LOUD husky was going to be a challenge. Erin was always right on time and such a great communicator. I liked and trusted her immediately and Aurora Dog warmed up to her right away as well. She started waiting at the door for her in the morning. Thank you so much Erin!”

About: Ever since I can remember I've always had a dog in my house, all different kinds. My own, and some of my parents fostered or took in temporarily from friends. I'm ready to walk, run, play, or nap with your pupper or kitty! Some of my favorite things are walks, fetch with a ball, and blowing bubbles. I have a dog named Wheezer and a cat named Titan. I'm so excited to meet you and your furry family members, thank you so much for your consideration! I am currently self employed in theatre (in the process of creating my own company) and have lots of spare time, especially during the day, to help take care of your pets! I have a high functioning car, and am ready to travel to you and your pet and/or being them to their favorite park! I live in an apartment, so my current favorite way to help out is to come to you and your furry friend!

About: Caring for animals has been apart of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up with pets and owned several of my own as an adult, so I know firsthand what it means to love an animal like family and what owners need when they hand them off to someone else. I'm comfortable with the full range of needs: puppies, senior pets, animals with medical conditions or special diets, and multiple pets at once. I've administered daily medications, followed strict feeding routines, and handled it all without missing a beat. Because I don't currently have pets of my own, I bring a lot of enthusiasm to every sit. Honestly, I miss having animals around and your pets get the full benefit of that. I take this seriously enough that clients have flown me across the country to care for their animals, which I think says more than anything else I could write in a bio. If you're looking for someone who will love your pets like their own and give you genuine peace of mind while you're away, I'd love to meet both you and them. Pet care isn't something I squeeze into my day. It is my day. I'm fully available and not juggling a rigid 9-to-5, which means your pets get consistent attention and care throughout the day rather than just morning and evening check-ins. Walks, feeding times, medications, cuddles, everything happens on their schedule, not mine. Whether you need someone for a quick drop-in or an extended house sit, I'm flexible and can make it work. I primarily care for pets in their own home because I believe animals are happiest in a familiar environment. Uprooting them from their space adds unnecessary stress, and keeping them in their element means they stay calmer, eat better, and settle in faster. When I'm in your home, I treat it with the same respect I would my own. I stick to your pet's existing routine as closely as possible, follow all instructions to the letter, and keep everything clean and tidy throughout my stay. I send regular photo updates so you always know how things are going without having to ask. My goal is simple: for you to come home to a happy pet and a home that looks exactly as you left it. The trust you place in me when you hand over your keys and your animals is something I take seriously, and I make sure you feel that from day one.

“Louie is always so excited for Jessica to come for his weekly walk. He waits by the door for her! She is the best!”

“Melissa was great! She connected with our dog, who looked forward to her arrival each day. was prompt and friendly. I will hire Melissa again without hesitation.”

About: 🐾 Hi, I’m Jayme — your dog’s new best friend🐾 If there’s one thing you should know about me, it’s that I’ve been obsessed with dogs for as long as I can remember! 🐶❤️ Dogs have always been a huge part of my life. Growing up, my family had Huskies and I experienced four litters of nine puppies—yes, 36 Husky puppies! 😂 At one point in high school, we had 18 dogs at once! As an adult, my love for dogs has only grown. My family currently has three Pomeranians, and I regularly dog-sit for friends and their pups. I’ve also helped care for and raise four litters of Pomeranian puppies, so I’m very comfortable with dogs of different ages, personalities, and needs. Whether your pup needs a fun walk, some extra playtime, companionship while you’re away, or just someone who will love on them like they’re my own, I’d love to help! 🐾 Your dog isn’t “just a dog” to me—they’re family. ❤️ I’m available Monday through Friday from 10 AM–3 PM while my daughter is at school, giving me plenty of time to provide reliable, loving care for your pup! Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. With a lifetime of experience caring for dogs, I provide a safe, loving, and trustworthy environment where every pup can feel comfortable, cared for, and right at home.

About: I’ve been around animals since I was a kid. Growing up on a farm, raising animals for 4-H, and having our own cats and dogs. I’ve never been without a pet in my life. Love meeting new furry friends! I work as a flight attendant, so I have several days off a month to take care of your pets! Usually I work long weekends (Thursday through Monday-ish, but only four days at a time), so weekdays are best! I have a backyard and extra leashes to easily take your pet outside whenever, plus two chill middle-aged dogs at home to play with your fur baby if able!

“Jacqueline is amazing! Reliable, kind, and my dog just loved her. I couldn't have asked for a better person to help me care for my fur kid. Really appreciate her.”

About: I’m a dependable and caring pet lover who treats every pet like family. I also volunteer at a local cat shelter and have experience caring for my own dogs and cats and friends and family’s pets when needed. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, administering basic medications, and keeping pets on their normal routines so they feel safe and happy while you’re away. I’m responsible, detail-oriented, and always make sure pets get the love, exercise, and care they deserve. Fun fact: I am also a Nurse so I am familiar with caring for others, mediations and recognizing changes in conditions! I’m currently working full time 3 12 hour shifts per week overnight as a nurse in a hospital. I have a lot of days off and prefer to work on my off days. My schedule varies each week, but I am willing to be flexible and open about sharing my schedule and working with you to help care for your pet. My cats have their own bedroom. I use a liter robot for waste removal, have scheduled play time, and administer their food on a schedule. Routine is important to them, but I also will do something fun or extravagant with them every once in a while, such as taking them on a walk in my pet stroller.

“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!!”
