About: Hey there! I’m a local college student currently studying to become an RN, and I’m home for the summer bringing fresh energy and a genuine passion for pet care. I’ve been caring for animals for as long as I can remember and grew up on a family farm surrounded by animals of all kinds, from horses and donkeys to our beloved dogs, cats, and everything in between! Over the years, I’ve helped walk and care for dogs for many different families, including first responders and nurses with long or unpredictable work hours. I understand how important it is to have someone reliable and caring looking after your pets! My flexible schedule allows me to provide dependable care tailored to your pet’s needs, and my active lifestyle means your dogs will get plenty of exercise, attention, and playful energy. I treat every animal like family and would love the opportunity to care for your furry friends! I am a senior college student at Biola University studying to get my bachelors in nursing. Currently, I am home for the summer looking to further my experience in the pet sitting business. My scheduling gives me lots of flexibility and opportunities to take care of your furry friends whenever possible. I am a very outdoorsy person and you will often find me outside enjoying sunshine by running or hiking with my dogs. Whether it’s a long walk or some playtime in the park, it’s a great way to keep your pets happy and healthy. I believe it is necessary to respect your home and maintain your pet's routine, including feeding schedules and favorite activities, to minimize stress. I send pictures and text updates ensuring you are well informed and aware of your pups activity. Additionally, I personalize each pet's playtime. Whether it’s extra cuddles for a shy pup or more active playtime for an energetic one, I know it is important for the well being and safety of each dog to be aware of their personal needs and preferences.

About: I have had dogs most of my life. I had dobermans as a young kid, a yellow labrador as a teen, and a beagle and a mixed shepherd as an adult. I currently still have my mixed shepherd who I rescued 11 years ago. She is 12 now. I love all dogs, big and small. I am retired so I am available on most days and most times. I have my own transportation and I am able to drive to anywhere within reason. I have a fenced in 1/2 acre property. I have a doggie door that can accompany a large dog. There is plenty of shade in the backyard.

“Justice did great. Punctual and followed my requests. The dogs looked happy in the pictures. Handled three dogs at once which is huge because my dogs are a handful. Great work !”

“We are absolutely thrilled with the exceptional care Lily provided for our beloved pup, Hazel! Lily's patience, kindness, and attention to detail made all the difference in Hazel's walks. She took her time, ensuring Hazel felt comfortable and enjoyed every moment. The detailed report card Lily provided after each walk was impressive, giving us a clear picture of Hazel's adventures. We're so grateful to have found Lily and can't wait to have her as our go-to for weekly walks. She truly is a dog lover's dream come true! Five paws up!”

“My family and I highly recommend Alexis and Adam as dog walkers! They walked my two German Shepherd mixes early in the morning for 16 consecutive days for an hour each while we were on vacation. Always on time, always submitting report cards with photos and the route they walked. On top of that, my dogs, who are rescues with shyness or aggression toward strangers AND severe dog reactivity on walks, LOVED Lex and Adam! As a professional dog trainer and walker myself, I’m extremely careful with people who interact with my dogs, and Lex and Adam exceeded my expectations! It’s clear to me that they take caring for their clients’ dogs seriously and both are extremely nice and personable. Thank you Lex and Adam!!”

“Lety was amazing! She was so patient and kind with my pup who is a bit reactive. She was also very attentive and communicative. She let me know how sofie was doing each time she checked on her and gave her lots of love and cuddles while we were away. Really appreciated her help when we were out of town and will definitely be requesting her for future services. Thank you, Lety!”
