About: I worked at an animal hospital for one year and then worked at a boarding facility for a variety of different animals. I’m experienced in walking/caring for almost any breed and I truly enjoy giving animals the attention that they may need. I am a part time student at St. Mary’s University and I find that caring for animals is a huge stress reliever. I also think that participating in dog walking is a great way for me to do what I love. School and work can be stressful, and if I can have a job that minimizes that, it’s a bonus! I look forward to working with you, thanks! I am a single mother and working full time whiles in school. I have free time on the weekends and would love to fill it with caring for your pet baby’s. I am adaptable and would be more than willing to adjust to your home and pets needs. I have a two story home as well as a backyard that always for play and outdoor play time.

“Tamany treated my pup with so much care and he loved spending time with her and her daughter. He got so excited seeing them. He knew that he was going to have a great walk. This was my first experience using Rover and I was so worried about trusting my baby with a stranger. Tamany arranged a meet and greet first to make sure that she would be a good fit. I knew within the first 5 minutes that she would be perfect. Thank you Tamany for treating Remmy like he was your pup! I would recommend her in a heartbeat!”
“Amazing! Booked at the last minute and Kelly made it work! She saved the day since my husband and I had two long working days! Really grateful for her and taking our sweet girls for a walk!”
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. I have dog sat often for a variety of dogs for about ten years now. I have a 12 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. If you need a dog sitter, I can take your dog on several walks and to various parks each day, they will come home tired and happy! Your dog is welcome to stay in my home or we can stay in your home if preferred. I can't wait to meet your furry friend!! Thank you for considering me! Currently I have a lot of availability. Please message me with the dates you need a sitter. I am currently available all week and during spring break. Please let me know if you’re comfortable with me bringing my dog to your house. He does well with other pets and mostly keeps to himself.
“Amber was a pleasure to work with. She communicated even minor updates, cared so much that she cleaned up a small excitement piddle on the floor, and other things she noticed as things to be aware of. She was kind enough to also move a delivered package indoors for us. We absolutely look forward to future care with Amber as the need arises.”
“Kayti has been great for Snoop. She walked him this week while I was having construction done at my home. She went above and beyond as there was an incident and she stay longer to ensure he was ok. I’m so thankful for her professionalism and care.”

About: I’m recently unemployed and looking to get my steps in and earn some dollar tree money! I have experience running a BOOMING neighborhood dog walking business in the 90s! Also the proud owner of 1 Bombay cat. Not much specialized experience, but wide open availability to help at run of the mill drop ins and/or walks. Hope to meet you! Newly unemployed, so availability is quite literally wide open! I would like to avoid far drives. Would love some weekly walking jobs (rather, my fitness app would love) I will follow your instructions and treat your family members how I treat my own! I am not well versed with special care but am willing to try and learn
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was about 10 years old and I grew so much love for them. I enjoy being active with dogs and making sure that they get their playtime and I love cuddling cats and making sure that they’re getting the attention. I’m currently working full-time and I’m off by five every evening. And off at 3 on Mondays. And have Sunday and Wednesdays off I would love to take a day out of my week to play with your pups! My dog does not have a fence at the moment, so I’m constantly taking her on walks and making sure she’s going outside if your dog needs to be created or on a leash I would be willing to do so!! I enjoy taking my pup on walks
About: I believe every dog deserves a cozy, happy place where they feel loved and cared for. I’m attentive, responsible, and focused on making sure your pup has a calm, fun, and comfortable stay. From cuddles to walks to sticking closely to your dog’s routine, I’ll make sure they’re treated like one of my own. ♥️ I work from home, so I have a flexible schedule and am available for dog walking between 9:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m. I also provide overnight care for partial or full week stays, depending on your needs. If helpful, I can also come by to pick up your pup from your home. My home includes two young boys, ages 8 and 6, who love dogs and are very comfortable around them, so your fur baby will be welcomed into a warm, family-friendly environment. 🐶 My yard is not fenced, but your dog’s safety will always be my top priority. When we’re in the backyard, I will keep your dog securely on leash and never let them out of my sight, so you can feel confident they are always supervised and cared for. My house is always pup friendly. Whether your bestie needs a bed of their own or prefers to cuddle with hoomans, I want to give them the best experience away from home possible 🐾
“Anneka is reliable, a good communicator, very kind and caring. Our puppy gets so excited when she shows up. She has done a great job helping him learn walking manners while burning off energy. Thank you!”
About: Animals have always been a big part of my life. I currently have both a dog and a cat, so I'm comfortable caring for pets with different personalities and needs. In addition to caring for my own pets, I spent the last five years fostering dogs of all ages, sizes, breeds, and temperaments. From energetic puppies to older dogs and those needing extra patience or structure, I've gained experience helping dogs feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, or simply a calm companion while you're away, I'll provide dependable, attentive care and treat them like one of my own. As a teacher, I have a very flexible schedule during the summer, allowing me to accommodate morning, afternoon, evening, and weekend visits. This flexibility means I can provide consistent care, plenty of attention, and stick to your pet's normal routine. During the school year, I'm still available for evenings, weekends, holidays, and school breaks. Your pet's safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities. In my home, I have a friendly dog, a cat who will most likely just keep his distance, and an almost 4-year-old daughter who has been around animals her entire life. She has learned to be gentle and respectful with pets, and all interactions are always supervised. While I don't have a fenced yard, that means my own dog is accustomed to multiple leashed walks and outdoor breaks throughout the day. If your dog stays with me, they'll receive the same regular exercise, attention, and supervised time outside. When caring for pets in your home, I'll follow your instructions closely to keep their routine as consistent as possible. Whether it's feeding, walks, playtime, medication, or plenty of companionship, I'll treat your pet like one of my own.
About: I love being around dogs and treat them as family, as they should be! I currently have 3 fur babies, two back labs who are brother and sister and a pitbull. They are my world and I will treat your dogs as such as well. Every dog deserves love and cuddles! I've worked with puppies through senior dogs and understand that every pup has its own personality and needs. I have experience giving medication as my girl receives daily meds for her Addisons. I love being active with dogs whether that's playing catch in the backyard, tug-o-war or going on long walks. I can't wait to meet your dog! I currently work from home so if I'm staying at your place of residence for an extended stay your family member will receive all the attention needed during the days. I have experience crating dogs if needed while I stay at your home. Because I work remotely I'll be able to play with and walk your pet throughout the day.

Danielle is a caring, skilled, and patient dog walker. Today was the first time for walking both of my dogs together, one of which is not as "seasoned" of a walker as the other. After a noisy start (my dog barked for a bit), Danielle handled both dogs like a pro and they had a successful walk. I have complete trust in Danielle that, when she leaves with my dogs, she'll return them to me happy, tired and ready for a nap ;-) KUDOS to Danielle!
Nicole is amazing! We had a great first meet up and she’s been awesome ever since. She walks our two Poms, Hank and Norm, and we get pictures of them on their walks where they look the happiest they’ve ever been! We are so glad we decided to hire Nicole to walk them, worth every penny and then some! Cannot recommend Nicole enough!

Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
