Dog Walking in Almaden Valley, San Jose

“Maddie was great! She responded very quickly, and arrived a few minutes early for the walks. She was great with the pup and he was happy to go with her. Will definitely be reaching out again the next time I need help with the dogs! Thank you ?”

“Maria has been our dogwalker for a few weeks now. She has been super great and attentive to our dogs needs and follows our instructions well. She has also been super flexible and understanding of our scheduling changes.”

“Shaden took great care of Jake while we were gone, including walks, feeding, and keeping him company. The next time we need someone to watch him when we're away, she's my first choice!”

About: I have grown up with dogs and have cared for them as an adult for over 15 years. I currently have 3 dogs of my own who are well cared for and VERY loved! I am a part time soccer coach and have practices in the evenings, which means I get to be home with my animals (or yours) in the morning to afternoon time! Try me out with this code: CHARLM07840 My animals are always first priority in my home, and it would be the same for a client's home. I understand the importance of gaining an animal's trust, and giving them the best, quality care.

About: I volunteered with the Humane Society of Silicon Valley to help socialize rescue dogs and cats of all levels of shyness. My own dog was a rescue who needed a lot of time and care to open up to people. I have also dog sat for multiple dogs at a time! I have very open availability! I am a university student on break so I have no other obligations. I can stay overnight as well to keep your pet company. I'm used to cleaning up messes if your pet gets sick, and am able to let your pet out to pee/clean their litter box at any time! I also have experience giving medicine to dogs.

“I was really impressed with James. He took our two dogs on a morning walk and our puppy actually came back tired. James was fully capable of walking two big, energetic and excitable dogs. Sadie and Maverick were so happy when they came back from their walk. James clearly loves animals and has a kind and gentle demeanor around them.”

About: I have grown up around dogs, I am familiar with administering meds for health and treats for training. And I enjoy getting my steps in with a furry friend. I am currently working part time and enrolled in a graduate program. While needing to step away from a computer screen every so often I figured walking with a pet who is eager to let out some energy is a great trade off. I have a fenced yard with a friendly puppy my roommates just adopted. He is fully vaccinated and full of energy. My #1 concern is safety so ensuring comfortability is my main priority when dog sitting/walking.

About: I've had a pet dog since I was 13 years old, almost 10 years ago. I have also cared for & walked neighbors' dogs as needed, and I would like to help out other local dog owners in a similar way. Each dog has their own favorite forms of play and exercise, and I greatly enjoy letting dogs show me what theirs are. On walks, I can let the more adventurous ones explore and let the more routine-oriented ones stick to familiar ground. I will let them socialize or guide them away from other dogs based on your needs. I adapt my walking pace to each dog I handle - my own is a fast walker, and my neighbor's is more laid-back and plodding. I've loved dogs for my entire life - to the extent that my Eagle Scout project was dedicated to helping a local animal rescue organization. Inspired by the doghouse I had built for my own dog, I led the construction of three more to be donated to the Pup Plaza event site in Cambrian Park Plaza. I am currently searching for full-time jobs, so I will be flexible with my schedule. I would like to arrange initial visits before committing to ensure that the dog and I will be a good fit. I am able to play with, feed, and walk your dogs, as well as ensuring their water is filled up. In addition to play, I will also be open to simply providing company. I am not currently able to host your pets within my own home.

“Yaisa was awesome for walking Toko and Arya when I was away at work during the day! She showed up on time and would take them for a nice long walk through the neighborhood. My pups were surprisingly well behaved with her and I loved all the pictures she would send me! They always looked happier on days after she visited. I will definitely book again when I need someone to check in with them if I'm out on a day trip or any long work weeks.”

About: I’ve been babysitting dogs (big and small) since I was 9 years old as I grew up loving animals. I’m especially great with dogs that are not very trusting and fearful of humans. My family dog who I adopted from a terrible environment used to be very scared and timid; so with lots of patience and love I know how to make your pup feel safe with me too! I am very aware of what dogs need and how they should be treated; however, if you would like me to follow specific directions for your pet(s), I will be more than happy to do so. It would be my very pleasure to baby sit your pet(s)! Although I’m more experienced with dogs, I also have experience taking care of cats while my friend goes away for vacations for weeks at a time. Since my schedule differs, please contact me if in need of care for your dog(s). Thank you! I currently have a very flexible schedule at the moment. Just contact me ahead of time and let me try to work out a schedule with you and your pet! Since I’ll be watching your pet at your place, feel free to tell me exactly what you want out of your pets’ care and I’d be eager to go above and beyond you and your pets expectations!

About: Hello! Ever since I was young I have had a love for all dogs breeds. Being with dogs have always been a passion of mine. When your dog is in my care you can be rest assured I will treat them just like our family dog, with lots of love and attention to safety at all times. I am excited to bring attention, love and exercise into your dog’s life. I am looking forward to meeting your dog! I’m currently doing online school, so I have plenty of time to stay with your dogs. My schedule is very flexible and I’m open any day of the week. I’ll always make sure your pet is safe at all times. If you have any specific instructions for your pet, I’ll always have it done.

“Rick took great care of our dog and had a great walk!”

About: My entire life, I have never lived without a dog. I've had 2 huskies, 2 labs, and a malti-poo. I love walking dogs because since leaving for college I don't have the capabilities to own a dog on my own and I miss my dogs back home! I'm currently working full time but love to stay active and be around dogs as much as I can. I work late hours so if your dog is okay being alone from 9pm-1am I can take boardings and overnight stays, but otherwise, I am happy to walk your dog(s) or take them to parks, or on hikes!! I am happy taking multiple dogs at once as well! I do not have any pets of my own except a couple of fish at the moment, I have a fenced in yard and am happy to accept crates for overnight stays if requested. I am happy doing drop ins for pets who are alone for a while, going for walks/hikes around client's homes or mine. Pretty flexible with hours, days, and times!

About: He tenido mascotas desde niña. Mi amor por los animales es enorme, velo por su bienestar. Ellos lo son todo para mi. Ellos son felices conmigo. I'm at home every day. My care will be full-time. They will feel at home with me. I love going for a walk with them. I have a closed yard where the pets go out to sunbathe and during the day they are inside the house. I really enjoy your company.

“He came and walked Tango for the full amount of time. Tango gravitated to Matthew immediately. Booked him a second time. Thank you for your assistance during a real time of need.”

About: Born and raised in a ranch, I've been surrounded by animals my whole life. From the classic cats and dogs, to goats, horses, cows, chicken and so on. I love them all! Although I have not trained animals formally (aside "look at me/sit/down/heel"), I will give your pet all the love one can give. Pets are dear to my heart and I understand how important they are to you too. I am currently unemployed and am home full time (aside the grocery runs). I am available for walks in the mornings as well as early afternoons. I have 2 dogs who are very friendly. If taking your dog on a walk, I'll be sure to chat with you before hand to check if they're ok around other animals, or if we should cross the street when other dogs approach. If you'd like me to sit your animal, they must be ok around other dogs as well as big kids.

“Phoenix is gentle and tender with my dog. She is keen about his safety as well. He absolutely loves her. She is very responsive and has clear communication skills.”

About: Hello! My name is Hanna, I've been surrounded by critters since before I can remember. I've always been passionate about animals, and so I was the first request for friends and families when they would go out of town. My goal is to make this as much fun for your pet as it will be for me. I want to hear all about your pets so I can keep them happy while you're away. Don’t hesitate to reach out if you'd like to learn more about me or any specifics you'd like me to know about your furry friend! I’m here to help make you and your pet’s life easier. So looking forward to meeting you and your pet in the future. AVAILABILITY: I'm generally available before the work day, at lunch time (which is flexible), and evenings, with open availability on the weekend. I work full-time, but have a flexible schedule that allows me to leave when needed. I'm generally available before the work day, at lunch time (which is flexible), and evenings, with open availability on the weekend. Unfortunately, I don't have the space to bring your animals into my home- so I do only offer care in your home at this time!

“Great work and very understanding.”
