Dog Walking Avon

About: Hi! I’m one of those people who can’t walk past a dog without saying hi. If I see a dog while I’m out, I’m probably the person asking, “Can I pet your dog?” My child is exactly the same way! We’re both naturally drawn to dogs and genuinely enjoy having them around. Dogs have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. Three of my own dogs were with me for 16, 16, and 18 years, and they truly became members of the family. I understand how much our dogs mean to us and how important it is to feel comfortable with the person caring for them when we can’t be there. Our current dog, Pancake, is a rescue and a small, friendly girl who enjoys having company. She’s an important part of our family and will be your pup’s little host during their stay! I also volunteered at two animal shelters, where I spent time caring for dogs with different personalities and needs. I am patient, attentive, and respectful of each dog’s individual temperament. I have a large, fully fenced yard where dogs can safely enjoy outdoor time. My home is a good fit for dogs who are comfortable around children and other dogs. Because I have a child at home 50% of the time, your dog must be comfortable and safe around children. I also want every dog who stays here to feel comfortable with Pancake, so I take introductions and meet-and-greets seriously. ❤️ What I Want for Your Dog I want your dog to feel like they are staying in a home where they are genuinely cared for, not simply being dropped off somewhere for the night. I’ll take the time to learn your dog’s routine, personality, favorite things, and anything that helps them feel comfortable. Whether your pup wants to run around the yard, play with Pancake, follow us around the house, or curl up somewhere cozy, I’ll respect their individual personality. During their stay, I’ll provide: 🐾 A comfortable home environment 🐾 A large, fully fenced yard 🐾 Regular potty breaks and outdoor time 🐾 Attention, companionship, and affection 🐾 Meals according to your instructions 🐾 Their normal routine as much as possible 🐾 Photo updates so you can see how they’re doing 🌿 New to Rover, Not New to Caring for Dogs I’m just getting started on Rover, so I’m offering introductory pricing while I build my profile and get to know local families. While I’m new to Rover, caring for dogs is something I’ve been doing throughout my life. I’m looking forward to getting to know some wonderful dogs and their people and hopefully becoming someone you feel comfortable calling whenever you need a home away from home for your pup. I’d love to meet you and your dog and see if we’re a good fit! 🐶❤️ I’m available for boarding at evenings and weekends. All-day-Thursdays are also available. Walks from 6-7 a.m. - Mondays and Tuesdays Walks from 5-6 p.m. or 6-7 p.m. - Mondays and Tuesdays My yard is fully fenced, my dog is friendly, and the dogs will be welcome inside the home and on furniture as well. I really want them to feel they are in they home-away-form-home

“Great communication, extremely nice, and Oliver really liked you! Thank you so much!!”

About: I have been petsitting since I was 12. I have experience with taking care of dogs of all ages and energy levels. I have had the pleasure to gain these experiences from my own previous pets and offers of my friends and family members. While I currently don’t own any pets in my own home, I am looking to expand my love for animals services to my community! I would love to use my extra time in my weeks to help other’s in their busy schedules. My love for animals is unconditional and I love getting to know each animal for who they are and what they enjoy. I have also had past experiences with cats and bunnies and I am comfortable with getting more experience with them! I am currently work part-time and tend to have a lot of free-time. I have reliable transportation and I am an active person so I enjoy walking and adding a furry walking buddy is even better! I like to follow other’s house rules and I like to keep everything clean and organized. My goal is earn trust with clients and their furry loved ones!

About: I trained my reactive childhood dog at 16, and had great success! After he passed, I began volunteering at my local shelter. I can’t afford a dog right now, so I have much love saved up to share with everyone else’s dogs! I work part time, and I’m in school. I’m free Mondays after 2pm and Wednesdays after 2pm - Thursday before 4pm for an overnight stay. I have a separate unit in my home where my cats stay when dogs come over, so don’t worry if your dog isn’t cat friendly! I have a large fenced yard, with lots of things to sniff and squirrels to chase.

“She is great 😃”

About: I have patience caring for dogs, including end of life for senior dogs and dogs age 1 year and up. This includes bathing, walking, tending to wounds, playing with and taking them along on vacation! I am a college student that is studying to be an accountant. I need a flexible job. Dog walking is a perfect job for me, because I love dogs and spending time with them outdoors. I can play with your dogs, give them long walks, brush their fur, and keep them company with dog play until the are tired and happy.

“Rebecca was great! We have no issues and our dog Molly loved her. We will be reaching out to her in the future for our doggy needs! I would definitely recommend Rebecca to friends.”

About: I love caring for dogs. Short or long walks, playing at the park or in their yard. When they are happy it makes me happy. Feeding time or treats always on owners timeline! I am currently not working so available to be with your pet all day! Feedings, walks, whatever is needed they will feel safe and happy. I like to care for pets in their own home where they feel most comfortable. I will be able to keep them on their daily schedules where they feel safe.

About: Hi, I’m Joe — a lifelong dog lover who treats every pup like my own… right down to the love, the cuddles, and the occasional meatball. I’m home all day, so your dog gets constant attention, companionship, and plenty of affection. My home is relaxed and dog-friendly, with a big, fully fenced yard for safe play, sniffing adventures, and stretching their legs. Inside, pups can lounge wherever they feel comfortable — the couch, their bed, or right next to us. At night, everyone’s welcome in the bedroom, whether they prefer their own spot or decide mine looks more comfortable. (It usually does.) Being home all day means your dog gets frequent potty breaks, a calm routine, and tons of quality time. I send regular photo updates so you can see exactly how well your pup is settling in. Along with boarding, I also offer drop-in visits, in-home sitting, and dog walking, giving you flexible and reliable care options. If you’re looking for someone who will genuinely love, spoil, and treat your dog like family — with all the comfort and maybe a meatball or two — I’d be honored to welcome them. I am home full-time, allowing me to provide constant supervision and care. Pet care seamlessly fits into my routine through regular walks, attention, and companionship. In my home, dogs enjoy a large fenced yard, supervised play, and full comfort—allowed on furniture, loved like family, and welcome to sleep beside us.

About: I dog sit of my friend dog once a while for almost 5 years. She normally stay with me more than 7 days. I’m good at take her out for a walk even during raining day. I love to give them belly rub. I spend most of my weekend at home so I have time to take care pet during the weekend. I like to take pet wherever I go, otherwise I feel bad for leave them at home for a long time. I live in a two story townhouse with 2 bedrooms, offering plenty of space for small dogs to comfortably move around and go up and down the stairs. There’s a community park right outside my home, and I love spending time outdoors. I’m happy to take dogs on long walks and make sure they get plenty of exercise and fresh air, especially if they enjoy being active.

About: Hi my name is Nneka and I happen to love dogs very much and I will be happy to keep an eye on and/or walk him/her anytime. I currently work nights from 5pm-2:30am. So I am available in the daytime to be there for your pet! I will care for your pet as my own and I will do well to make sure that your dog is being well taken care of. I have taken care of my sister’s, my aunties and many of my friend’s dogs before so I have a bit of experience. I also have a dog who is currently with my mom. I would love to meet you and your dog and give them the best experience. Thank you! Since I work at nights, caring for your pet will fill a lot of my mornings up. Whether it’s exercising with your pet or checking in with them, my mornings will be filled with joy. How I will care for your pets, whether it is walking them or going to your place for a check in, is make sure their needs are taken care of. I will not put them in harms way nor will I do anything to jeopardize their safety.

About: Ive taken care of dogs since I was 9 and I’ve taken care of cats since I was in kindergarten. When going to friend’s homes I am respectful of special diets for their fur babies and follow the family’s list of requirements for their pets. I’ve taken care of pets for both friends and family. I’ve helped feed, walk and administer meds. Im working part time so I will have plenty of time to spend with pets to play, feed, walk and help enrich their lives while you’re away. I am playful, caring and gentle with furry friends. I like to make them feel as comfortable as possible around me so they know they can trust me. I like to also get to know the family and how they care for their pet in different circumstances to make sure I am doing things that your pet is used to.

“Emily is incredible! She has been walking our 2 (big) dogs for about 2 weeks now and the boys are loving the walks. Emily is very alert to all their needs and is even helping to train them along the way. Booking with Emily was super easy and she always responds quickly to any/all messages. I would definitely recommend her services! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

About: For 2 yrs, I was a volunteer for an animal shelter, Berkeley Humane, and took care of dogs & cats needs. I’ve also have plenty experience watching overs friends’ loved ones and had no problems at all. I’ve been and capable to watch, walk, play and make sure your loved one gets all the attention as if they were my own. I absolutely love dogs & cats. I’ve grown up with many pets before, and now I have a sweet, yet energetic of my own. I love to walk and I would love to get the opportunity to walk your dog. I’m currently a full-time artist at home. I’m almost home 24/7. I’m only gone for 2 hours to go to the gym. However, I do keep my dog inside the crate too so I would need your dog to be crate trained in case I need to leave the house. This provides a safety and peaceful nap-time for the babies so when I come back, we are all ready to play again! I’m very respectful and clean of one’s property and of my own. I follow instructions clearly and ask important questions needed to ensure I have all the correct info. All always update you and ensure your fur baby is happy & loved :)

About: Currently taking reservation for November and December!! Limited spots still available on calendar :) Hello! My name is Hosana and I am currently an undergraduate college student at UCSD. I have loved animals for as long as I could remember! Growing up in a smaller home, I was never able to own a dog of my own, but being obsessed with animals, I wouldn't let this stop me from being around them an gaining as much experience as I could by taking care of pets for friends and family throughout my life. Eventually I started working at a local doggy daycare/ pet boarding facility in Walnut Creek known as, North Main Pet Lodge. I have about a year's worth of experience working professionally with a multitude of different dog breeds and taking care of their daily needs. I've worked with both dogs and cats, and other small animals such as hamsters, rabbits, and such and know how to administer medication, bathe, feed, and do other tasks related to pet care. Staying flexible and knowing how to deal with all sorts of situations is something I have come to be very acquainted with through my work experience. Communication is of big importance to me and making sure all pet parents stay informed throughout their stay away from their pets. Currently I am working on my finishing my degree online and no longer need to attend classes on campus. Therefore I will be in the bay area permanently and am looking to work with those who need the occasional sitter. Have been actively sitting for my clients since 2025. Please feel free to contact me and help this college student out with your business, as I also look forward to spending time with your pets! Thanks for reading :) Currently taking online classes. Would be ideal for pet parents who want someone to be at the house often for daily routine, but also able to step away for up to 4 hrs at a time few days of the weekdays (usually Mon, Fri). Weekends I am almost always available all day. Almost always at home for morning, afternoon potty breaks, evening, overnight. When in a client's home, the pet's safety and health are my number one concern. With my experience, I have learned several tricks that help with a variety of temperaments and personalities that each dog has. I also believe in being respectful of my client's homes and will take that very seriously. Overall, any specific concerns or lists can be communicated to me and I will make sure to keep an open line of communication.

“Heather always arrives on time. She's enthusiastic about taking our Sarah on her walk, and Sarah always returns happy and exercised. I can't recommend her enough.”
