About: I share my genuine love for long walks and outdoor adventures—because a tired dog is a happy dog! I pair that exercise with plenty of treats, endless smiles, and lots of love. Whether it’s a relaxed stroll or a playful romp, I make sure your pup feels safe, happy, and truly cared for every step of the way I have a full time remote (work from home) career with flexibility to add some walks and cuddles to my day. I am able to drop in for a walk/feeding/attention or I can accommodate extra furry friends at our home. I am a wife and mom of an active family of 5 with 3 college kids and a 5 year old golden retriever. I live in a quiet neighborhood on a lake where I spend as much time as possible outdoors.

About: My entire life my family has always had two dogs, at least two cats, and a horse. My jobs have always involved animals. When I was in middle school and could not work I would spend my time volunteering at an animal rescue shop and at a horse stable taking care of the horses. My very first official job was at MN Horse and Hunt at the barn taking care of about 30 horses. I also had a 15 year old dog that sadly passed away recently. She had three legs due to an accident when she was a few months old. With this I have many years of experience taking care of a dog with special needs including special food, supplements, and even diapers. Every morning my dog or cat wakes me up, and it is time to let them outside and get ready for the day. Once I am ready they are more than excited to eat breakfast. Then I go to my morning class and let them out as soon as I get home. This is about my everyday schedule. The most important thing for me is making sure my pets are happy. I like to make sure they all get at least an hour a day of play and pets. I think playing is very important. Even my 12 year old cat is still very healthy, active, and playful. I believe the playtime really helps keep her body and joints healthy and capable.

“Amy is always very responsive and quick to accommodate my requests. We’ve been utilizing her very frequently for about a month now. She sends updates and pictures every time she stops by to check on my puppy. I truly don’t know what I’d do without her!”


“Paige did a wonderful job with Ruby and I really liked that she took time to meet us and Ruby before the walk. I hope to hire Paige again to walk Ruby. Paige seems to really love animals and care about them. She was on time and did a little training along with the walk.”

Unfortunately at this time my yard is not fenced but they would never be left unsupervised outside.

About: I’ve had pets growing up my whole life. I own a cat myself. I also frequently babysit my “nephew” (St. Bernese Mountain Dog) frequently, along with many other family members who have pets! I currently work part time and my schedule is pretty flexible. I work mostly nights, so I have plenty of downtime during day time hours. I have an indoor cat so he is pretty relaxed in his environment. I have family members with fenced in yards, tracking collars, and/or just a simple chain and post.

“Janneke is great with Leo. She gives him a great walk and when the weather doesn’t cooperate she will play with him inside and still give him a potty break. She’s very dependable!”


“She was awesome! I got picture and text updates. He had to lay low for a few days and she took the energy to keep him separated from the other dogs. She also came and picked him up when she was out and about, knowing it would make it easier for me. Chicken loved being with her and the family.”


About: I genuinely treat every pet as if they were my own, focusing on their individual needs, routines, and personalities. I'm dependable, attentive, and communicate openly with owners, ensuring peace of mind while they’re away. Whether it's extra playtime, careful attention to health needs, or simply being a calming presence, I go above and beyond to make sure each pet feels safe, loved, and happy. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine I plan my days around feeding times, walks, play sessions, and any special needs a pet may have. Whether it’s early morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening cuddle time, I make sure each pet gets consistent attention, exercise, and care throughout the day. Their well-being is always a top priority in my schedule. In my home, I provide a safe, comfortable, and pet friendly environment where pets can relax, play, and feel at home. I stick closely to their usual routines, offer plenty of attention, playtime, and outdoor walks, and make sure they have a cozy space to rest. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all instructions carefully to keep pets in a familiar, low-stress environment. I focus on maintaining their normal schedule, giving them lots of love and engagement, and keeping owners updated with regular photos and messages.

About: I love dogs, and more importantly, I understand them. A lifetime of caring for, interacting with and learning about animals has given me the skills to keep dogs safe, healthy, engaged, and of course, happy! I enjoy all types of dogs and all personalities. I have a degree in Veterinary Technology and took additional classes in dog behavior and am comfortable with dogs that are difficult for others, such as dominant or very timid. I feel a special connection with dogs that are unsure and love using my knowledge of them to help them come out of their shell. I have worked with hundreds of dogs in veterinary, rescue, boarding and grooming settings. I have attained a CGC with two dogs and done some agility. But mostly I love just being with dogs, mine and any I come across, walking, playing, snuggling, swimming, and anything that brings that smile to their face and that sparkle to their eye. I am honest, flexible, and will respect your property 100%. I am honored to be trusted by those I work for and am happiest when I hear "I didn't have to worry at all because I knew you were there".

About: I have had a lifetime (literally) of experience with pets. From the time I was born until current I have had dogs and have even helped with farm animals and cats. I have experience caring for healing/injured dogs, dogs with limited mobility, seniors, and dogs with anxiety. I have trained dogs from basic training to crate and potty training. I am a stay at home mom which gives me quite a bit of extra time throughout the week to be able to care for your pets. My home has a fenced in yard and I have two friendly dogs who like to play (or nap on the couch). I am in a calm neighborhood which makes great for walks.

About: Pet Care Experience Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I’ve volunteered at animal shelters, fostered dogs, and worked professionally as a supervisor in a dog and cat boarding/daycare facility. There, I gained hands-on experience with dogs of all breeds, ages, and temperaments—including reactive pups—and was trained in K9 body language and behavior. What sets me apart is my deep understanding of animal behavior, my ability to handle challenging situations calmly, and my genuine love for spending time with animals—whether it’s playing tug, going for a run, or just laying in the sun. I’m also experienced with senior care and puppy needs, and always keep safety and communication with pet parents a top priority. My flexible schedule allows me to be there whenever your furry family member needs a little extra attention or playtime! I am currently a stay-at-home mom, which allows me to have a flexible and consistent schedule. Pet care easily fits into my daily routine because I'm already home and used to managing multiple responsibilities. Whether it’s feeding, walking, playing, or providing extra attention and care, I’m able to give pets the time and love they need throughout the day. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets—whether in my home or a client’s. I always take time to understand each pet’s unique personality, routines, and any specific needs or health concerns. In my home, I maintain a pet-friendly environment that’s clean, secure, and free of hazards. I provide structure, supervision, and plenty of affection to help pets feel calm and comfortable. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their care instructions closely to ensure consistency and reduce stress. I respect the space, keep communication open, and always update owners with photos and messages so they can feel confident their pets are happy and safe.
