Dog Walkers in Lafayette, CA

“Joseph evidently has a way with dogs. Even my nervous German Shepherd. In a matter of 30 mins filled with patience and confidence he managed to get my 90lb dog to engage with him in positive interactions and that is almost a miracle for my dog who has had little socialization. Not everyone knows how to handle big dogs so I am super thankful to have found Joseph! He is communicative, genuine and timely. Looking forward to booking more sessions for my Enzo!”

“Valerie is wonderful to work with. She is prompt, reliable and truly loves animals. I felt completely comfortable with her walking our dogs. She asked many questions about them and took time observe their behavior and gave them yummy treats. Would definitely recommend Valerie!”

“Carrin is great with our high-energy Golden Retriever puppy! He loves his walks, and she is very communicative and reliable. We love the pictues and feedback.”

“Jose is awesome! My pup loves him and we will continue to use Jose and recommend him. My fu baby is about 90 lbs and he handled him with such care.”

“Juli was great with our dog. She was early to the appointment, and had a great attitude. We will be hiring her again to do walks withour dog.”

“Very sweet with Charlie. On time and walked with care.”

“Sierra & Karma were amazing with our pups. Excellent communication, reliable & super knowledgeable. And our dogs had a blast! Booking with them again for sure !”

“Felix was a wonderful dog walker and support for our housesitter while we were away for 9 days. Our dog took to him right and away, and if you said “Felix,” our dog would race to the gate wagging her tail :). Felix was prompt and responsive on texts…we are so appreciative to have found him!”

“Stephanie has walked our lab on a couple occasions. She’s fantastic! Great with our dog and sends a picture and summary of their walk after. She also always shows up right at the time discussed which I really appreciate!”

“Amazing experience with Nate, who walked our dog daily for a week. He was prompt with timing and communication- this was appreciated as I was out of town and loved the updates! Nate is easy going, kind, and good natured. He is professional and I felt confident having him open and close the house up. My dog immediately took a liking to him and enjoyed the visits and walks. Most importantly, you can tell Nate genuinely loves animals and taking care of them. Would recommend to anyone, and use again in a heartbeat.”

“Quinn and Kat were great! They were very nice and took great care of our dogs on their walks! We will definitely be using them again and would highly recommend them!”

About: - Fear Free Certified - Insured with Pet Sitters Associates - Nearly 10 years of experience Proudly providing a cozy second home for your pet! I started out pet sitting years ago when my cousin’s family needed me to watch their Pomchi while they were on vacations. Said Pomchi now loves me so much that the mere mention of my name sends her into rapturous zoomies! The feeling is very much mutual, of course. I enjoyed it so much that I’ve taken on multiple clients as a dog walker and sitter since then, mostly met spontaneously while out on walks. I work from home and and have a flexible schedule. I'm at home most of the time, working on my laptop. I have a few regular clients I do drop-ins for in the mornings and evenings, and of course I take my dog and whoever is staying with me for at least one walk every day. This is often my main form of daily exercise, so I cherish these walks. Safety is my top priority, but I also strive to provide an enjoyable and stress-free experience for your pet. I love connecting on an emotional level to animals through play, pets, and snuggling, making sure to read their body language closely and always respecting their boundaries. When your pet stays with me, they can expect a quiet, calm, private area with blankets, toys, water, and a crate available to them if they want it. Meals will be served exactly according to your specifications, and in general I will do my best to minimize any changes to your pet's normal routine and environment. They will of course be more than welcome to hang out with me and my dog in the main living room area as well. I'm also experienced in house sitting and have no problem doing tasks such as moving garbage bins, taking in mail and newspapers, and more. I ask that all clients type up a simple cheat sheet listing the pet’s feeding/walk/potty schedule, notes on the pet’s needs and personality, and any notes or requests regarding caring for the home if the job includes house sitting. Finally, please try to ensure your pet is relatively stink-free before dropping them off for boarding or daycare. Many thanks :)

“I have been so crazy with work that I have not had a chance to truly meet Audrey (just a quick hello), but clearly my dogs, all three, give her 5 stars! They are so excited when she shows up and they come home from their walks so happy. Considering my craziness, she is a fabulous communicator and that is so important to me. I would recommend her 100%!”

“Kristi is so sweet and energetic and truly a dog lover! My dog had an accident in the house and she diligently cleaned up the mess which she totally did NOT need to do! She was more concerned about the well being of my pup! She is always my first pick!”
