“Kevin is a great dog walker for us and our dog. He was really receptive to how we like to walk our dog and we really appreciated his flexibility when we needed to change our time slightly. I would highly recommend Kevin, I could tell that Kevin is a real animal lover and it showed in the way he treated our dog.”
About: Hi! I’m a dedicated animal lover with over 10 years of experience caring for cats and dogs of all breeds, ages, and energy levels. From playful puppies and kittens to senior sweethearts, I provide personalized, attentive care that keeps tails wagging and pet parents at ease. Whether it’s daily walks, drop-in visits, or overnight house sitting, I make sure your fur baby feels safe, loved, and well cared for in your absence. I specialize in maintaining routines, handling special needs (like meds or shy pets), and giving plenty of one-on-one attention. Reliable, communicative, and truly passionate about animals—I treat every animal like family. Let’s make your time away worry-free and your pets day full of fun and comfort! Pet care is a regular and meaningful part of my daily life. Whether it’s morning walks, mid-day drop-ins, or evening playtime, I structure my schedule to ensure I’m available when pets need me most. I prioritize consistency, communication, and flexibility, which means I’m able to accommodate different routines—whether that’s a quick lunchtime walk or overnight house sitting. Being around animals every day is not just part of my routine—it’s one of the best parts of my life. I care for pets in their own home by following their usual routines—meals, walks, meds, and play—while giving them comfort and companionship in a familiar space. I treat your home with respect and keep you updated with photos and messages, so you can relax knowing your pet is in safe, loving hands.
“Great communication and punctual! She was able to get my Cheerio out for a walk within a couple hours of me messaging her. He came back so tired and happy. He was so excited to see her, it was like they had met before! Definitely recommend Tamany to walk your dogs, she treated my boy very well.”

“Cindy was wonderful. I felt like she went above and beyond to provide the most thorough care for my nine month old puppy. I feel like she truly cared. I have had a lot of pet sitters in the past, but Cindy really stood out as one of the best. Communication was excellent. She sent me tons of updates. Would definitely book with her again :)”
About: Hi! My name is Ashlie, I live in Brooklyn Park, MN. I live right across from the Coon Rapids Dam, so there are miles of walking trails right outside my door and a brand new dog park just a block away.

However, I’m a dental assistant M-F, typically out of the house 12:30-8pm. I have an 11 year old westie named Merlin. We love hiking and going to dog parks and breweries together. He’s a very social dog and used to being around other dogs. I love all dogs so much and will treat every dog like they are my own. If you need a dog sitter for the weekend, I will be taking your dog on several walks and to various parks each day, they will come home tired and happy! I can't wait to meet your furry friend!! Thank you for considering me! I’m mostly available on weekends to dog sit. I am happy to watch your dog on weekdays if they are ok while I’m at work from 1-8pm. I live right by coon rapids dam, so I can easily walk your dog on the many trails there or walk over to the dog park.

“I have seen Ella care for multiple breeds of dogs (and cats!) over the years I've known her, and she's always impressed me with the amount of time she puts into establishing trusting and loving relationships with the pets she's cared for. Ella puts in the work to not only make sure a pet is fed and safe, but also ensures they feel loved and cared for - she loves petting and cuddling anything with fur! Ella has a perfect mix of responsibility and humor to care for and connect with any pet.”
