Dog Walkers in Vermillion, MN

“Christina has been wonderful with my pups! My dogs are high energy and she does great with them. She always sends me lots of photos and videos throughout the visit. I would highly recommend her to anyone needing a sitter/ walker!”

About: Hi! I’ve been caring for animals my whole life—starting on my family’s farm in southwest Minnesota with dogs, horses, sheep, and plenty of barn cats. I’ve worked in animal shelters and vet clinics, caring for all kinds of pets—from dogs and cats to reptiles and birds. I’m Low Stress Handling certified and have hands-on experience with walking, grooming, giving medications, and more. At home, I have two sweet senior Springer Spaniels and help care for family pets and farm animals. I love being outside—whether it’s hiking, walking dogs, or just soaking up the fresh air. Most of all, I love making sure animals feel safe, happy, and loved—just like family. I am a free-lance graphic designer and baker, otherwise I have been a stay-at-home mom. Both kids are now in school full time, and I have started a part time job at Dakota Pet Hospital as a Client Care Representative. I cannot walk my own dogs, due to their mobility restrictions and age, so why not walk yours! I would be caring for your pet in your home and around your neighborhood through walks, drop in visits and play times. I want to get to know you and your pet so that we know that we will work well together. I want you to feel safe having me caring for your furry family member and best friend, and I want to feel safe and comfortable with your pet(s). I want to see how you interact with your pet so that I can give them the type of care they are used to receiving!

“Alex was great with our active puppy Cady, and Cady loved all the attention given to her. Alex was a big help to us this weekend, and will be having her come again.”

About: I grew up around livestock and all sorts of other animals. I recently lost my own dog but when I had her I used Rover to help find a regular dog sitter for when I went on teacher conferences. I recently became trained in dog and cat CPR and first aid. I am not afraid to give medications to an animal and have taken care of dogs that have special needs such as anxiety, fear of fireworks, fear of guns and high energy. I am currently on a teaching schedule but after memorial day I will be available most days. If I am away during the summer it's usually just during the day. They will take first priority, getting food, water, any medications prescribed and taken to go outside will all take place before my needs. I can provide a kennel at my home and kennel trained my own dog understanding the process for that.

About: I would love to take care of your fur baby🐶🐾 I truly believe our pets are our family, and they deserve to be treated with patience, love, and attention. I’ve grown up with huskies and understand their energy, intelligence, and big personalities. I had a husky growing up, and now I rescued one of my own — so I’m very used to daily walks, playtime, structure, and staying active. I’m also a foster mom, which has given me experience with dogs of different temperaments, backgrounds, and needs. Caring for foster dogs has taught me patience, adaptability, and how important it is to make every dog feel safe and comfortable. Over the years, I’ve cared for all kinds of dogs — from small Yorkie/Shih Tzus to big Labs. I’m comfortable with different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I also have experience administering medications, including oral medications, eye drops, ear drops, and other basic care needs. You can feel confident knowing your pet is in capable and attentive hands. My goal is to give you peace of mind while you’re away and make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and right at home. 🐾 Pet care fits easily into my routine! I currently work in the service industry, which gives me a fairly flexible schedule. My usual days off are Wednesdays and Thursdays, which allows for extended availability those days. On most other days, I’m available for morning walks and check-ins if you reach out in advance. Since I already have an active routine with my own dog, adding walks and care for your pup fits in perfectly. I’m happy to communicate and coordinate to find times that work best for both of us! 🐾 I treat every pet like they’re part of my family, with care, respect, and plenty of love. My husky has gone through several training courses, so I’m used to teaching commands, helping with training, and teaching new tricks when needed. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy. I create a calm and positive environment, supervise them closely, and adapt to each pet’s personality. You can trust that your furry family member will be in loving hands! 🐾

“Great communicator. Reliable. Above and beyond with my pups !”

“Yascha has been doing regular walks with our dogs for a few weeks now. Dogs are super excited when he arrives. Yascha has been very responsive and has been accommodating to all requests (harness type, protective dog clothing in inclimate weather, wiping dogs feet etc). Would definitely recommend Yascha!”

About: I have had dogs my entire life and have love for all animals. I have also worked with rescue groups and almost all of my pets have come from rescue situations. I am currently working part time and therefore have plenty of time to care for your pets. I have grown up with animals my entire life. At this time I am not offering sitting at our home as we are having work done to our home but hope to in the near future

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and puppies since I was little. I treat them all like my own. If your animal has been requests I can accommodate. I work from home at night time so any time works for me since I have a yard for them to play and live life I don’t mind hosting them in my own or going to the clients home to assist the animals I take my own dog on a walk three times a day so if I am taking care of your dog they will get enough walks as well

“Great communication, thank you for walking cooper!”

About: I have had experience caring for dogs of all ages and breeds. I have a very open and flexible schedule, and love working with animals! I’ve just moved to the area from Florida where I was working full time in pet care, so I’m looking to build back up my clientele and do what I love the most which is helping others take care of their pets! I’m in an apartment so I don’t currently offer any boarding services. However, I’m happy to provide exercise and play time with your animals and give them all my love and care!

“Gracie had a great time on her walk with Katie! Katie was great with communications working around some app glitches, punctual, and was very accommodating to Gracie’s neurosis : ) Will be walking with her again for sure!”

About: I am a very loving person all around. I have many years and experience in pet sitting and in pet therapy, rescue and fostering. My friends and family trust me completely to take care of their animals. Myself and my husband and side kick Bob, love all kinds of fur babies and decided to turn our passion into a business, where both of us have the pleasure of meeting you, your pets, and doing drop in visits in your home. Mostly, we will treat and love your fur babies just like they are our own. I for sure will make visiting your home and your pets a top priority. I have a lot of flexibility in my schedule to meet your needs. I have a safe and clean environment. I have plenty of toys and cat treats. I have lots of playtime and keep a regular routine for them. I get down to their level and give them lots of love and attention, as I would with your pets as well. I also have a husband who is a great cat daddy and is a wonderful wingman and he loves animals including dogs as much as I do. We would treat our pet sitting responsibilities seriously, as well as respecting your home and pets for pet sitting.

About: I have been taking care of animals of all kinds including senior dogs and cats, puppies and kittens, gekkos, rodents and many things in between since I was 14 years old. I started out with people around my neighborhood, but have since expanded all around the metro! Reach out to me with any of your pet needs! I am currently working at a non-profit in Cottage Grove. Most of my days are 8:30am-4:30pm, but i get an hour long break! This schedule usually works great for pet sitting whether it’s a drop in visit or an over night stay. I will care for your pets like they are my own. I love animals of all kinds and their safety and your home’s safety are of the utmost importance to me. Keeping your home safe and secure is something I keep as a priority, setting me apart from other sitters. I can be trusted with detailed care instructions as well as basic normal animal task instructions. I look forward to taking care of your pets!

About: I had dogs growing up and I currently have my own dog. Iv taken care of two litters of puppies. Our family pug had puppies and so did our springer spaniel. We also had a chocolate lab. My current dog is a 1 year old Rottweiler. He is so much fun! Iv been walking dogs for about a year using Wag. I have a full time job and I take care of pets part time. Im usually available after 3pm everyday. I try to walk at least 3 dogs a week. I truly love dogs, all dogs. I will give your dog my full attention while we walk together, meaning I give eye contact, call their name in a playful way, and give them treats (with owner’s permission) and water if they listen to my commands. They will see me as their source of entertainment while getting a great exercise. I will walk or run depending on what your dog wants. Your dog will be very safe with me, I’m strong enough to handle any dog and I double check the harness is secure and double wrap the lease around my wrist.

“Michelle is great! She was very communicative and asked a lot of good questions to make sure she was prepared to give my dog the best care. My dog and cat instantly clicked with her. Looking forward to more future bookings. :)”

About: I’m a remote worker who has been lucky enough to love and care for my own cat, dog, hamster, and horse, as well as numerous other critters in kennels, barns, and animal shelters. I work remotely, so my time is very flexible. I’m happy to drop in for a visit or walk any time of day, rain, blizzard, or shine! I live in a quiet house with an eleven-year-old Miniature Schnauzer who loves playing tug-of-war and snuggling with his furry buddies. When I’m working with a pet, I always play off of the animal’s behavior and respect their boundaries. The health, safety, and cleanliness of your pet are my top priorities.
