Dog Walking Berryessa

About: Saturday has been an avid cat-lover all their life. They currently live with mostly senior cats and have lots of experience with subcutaneous fluids, medication, and general senior cuddling. But fear not! Saturday has also fostered many kittens, including those abandoned by their mamas and in need of bottle feeding. Saturday is an all ages cat-carer. Saturday has recently discovered their love of dogs as well. They love providing care, short walks, and lots and lots of snuggles to their canine friends. Saturday does best with small and medium dogs. They only take large dogs if they don't need walks. When they are not entirely absorbed by pet-cuddles, Saturday can be found reading, writing, or attempting not to kill their garden. As a full-time pet sitter, your fur babies are the focus of my day. I'm available for drop-in visits either morning (6am-noon), afternoon (noon-5pm), or evening (5pm-10pm). If I'm house sitting for your pets, we'll come up with an agreed upon schedule for when they need me home. I appreciate being able to care for pets in their own environments where they feel safe. I will respect your home just as if it were my own. At our meet and greet will discuss any house care (ie: mail or plant watering) as well as any house rules (ie: Miffie isn't allowed in the office). We will also discuss sleeping arrangements, if that applies.

About: I have grown up with dogs, cats, and many more different types of animals! I love taking dogs on walks and runs and playing with cats. I have experience with all types of personalities (loving, aggressive, shy, etc.) and can read animal behavior very well. I also have some experience teaching dogs tricks! I am a recent graduate with a B.S. in Biology and am looking to get more experience working with animals! That being said, I currently have a very flexible and open schedule. I am available mostly during the week days but can do weekends as well. I currently do not have a pet but previously, I would walk my dog once or twice a day and play with her often. When I have lived with cats, I would play with them using stringed cat toys. I believe that all animals should get some form of attention everyday to keep them mentally and physically stimulated. With all animals I typically feed them once in the morning and once at night.

“Maria’s love for dogs is undeniable! I am grateful for her dedication to my dog and overall professionalism - always punctual, communicative, and prioritising my dog’s wellbeing. My dog warmed up to her very quickly the first time they met and I am finally confident in leaving him alone with a walker. We look forward to having Maria as a regular walker for him.”

About: I’ve cared for my 2 big babies for about 8 years now. At first I had only one dog, then she got pregnant and I helped deliver all her babies at home. We found homes for all of them, but we kept one. So now they are mother and daughter duo. I’m currently open to work from 10 am to 5 pm from Monday through Friday. Please consider me to take care of your fur baby when you’re away from home. At home I have two loving dogs that are freed to roam everywhere. They are friendly with people just not so much other fur babies.

About: Hi! My name is Angelina, and I've been around dogs my entire life. Growing up with dogs has taught me how important they are as members of the family, and caring for them comes naturally to me. I currently have two dogs of my own. My first dog is 7 years old and truly means the world to me. My second dog is a Shih Tzu (3years old) who originally belonged to my grandma, and he's become a very loved part of our family. Caring for both of them has given me experience with different personalities, routines, and needs. In addition to my personal experience, I attended grooming school and became a certified dog groomer. My training has taught me how to safely handle dogs, recognize their individual needs, and make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I'm patient, dependable, and attentive, and l understand that every dog is unique. Whether your pup enjoys a brisk walk, a leisurely stroll, or extra love and attention, I'I make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for. I'll treat your dog like one of my own and provide updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while they're with me. I would love the opportunity to meet your furry family member and provide them with the same love, care, and attention I give my own Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine because I work part-time, which allows me to dedicate more of my time and attention to caring for pets. I have a flexible schedule and enjoy spending my free time with dogs, taking them on walks, giving them plenty of exercise and attention, and making sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I provide a safe, clean, and comfortable home environment where pets can feel relaxed and cared for. Although I live in an apartment, I have a private patio area and plenty of nearby outdoor spaces where I can take dogs out frequently for fresh air, potty breaks, and enjoyable walks. I make sure pets are supervised, kept secure, and given plenty of attention throughout their stay. I understand that every pet has different needs and routines, so I do my best to follow their normal schedule, including feeding, bathroom breaks, walks, playtime, and rest. My goal is to make every pet feel comfortable, safe, and loved while they are in my care. 🐾❤️

About: Hello! My name is Xiuhui (Sophie). I’m a dedicated dog sitter with over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs. I have a poodle of my own, so I’m very familiar with daily routines, grooming, feeding, and creating a calm, structured environment. I pay close attention to each dog’s habits, diet, and emotional needs, and follow their usual routine so they feel comfortable and secure. My goal is to provide a safe, low-stress, and loving home away from home. I also have experience caring for senior dogs and dogs who may need extra attention. Over the years, my own dog has experienced various health conditions, so I’m patient and comfortable providing gentle, attentive care when needed. I intentionally keep my boarding small (usually 1–2 dogs at a time), so each dog receives focused attention, consistent supervision, and personalized care. You’re always welcome to schedule a meet & greet to see if it’s a good fit. I spend most of my time at home, so I’m able to give dogs plenty of attention and care throughout the day. I follow a consistent routine with regular feeding, potty breaks, and light exercise. I provide a calm and comfortable environment and am best suited for dogs with moderate or lower energy levels, so they can feel relaxed and at ease during their stay. I live in a very pet-friendly apartment community. My home has a comfortable private patio where dogs can relax, enjoy fresh air, and sunbathe safely. Right downstairs, there’s a fenced dog park where dogs can safely go off-leash for potty breaks and light activity, making daily care convenient and stress-free. I always ensure dogs are in a safe, calm, and clean environment.

About: Hi, my name is Sheela and I do Dog-sitting out of my own house. I have had a German Rottweiler and 2 bunnies myself in the past. I loved them dearly and always provided the absolute best care for them. I have done pet-sitting for my sister's German Shepherd and Terrier mix and my friend's Chihuahua mix. Just recently I boarded 2 wonderful Bulldogs at my house for 3 months while their Guardian was traveling for work and also had a lovely Old English Sheepdog stay with us as well as plenty others. At the moment, I have a 13 yr old female Bernese Mountain/Shepherd mix who we adopted and a 4 yr old male Chugle tripod rescue, so your pet will have nice playmates while they stay at our home. I also have a super cute rescue bunny! I have a 17 year old daughter who loves animals and is very respectful to them. I am very passionate about animals and I am an animal advocate, I do whatever I can to help and fight for animals. I sign petitions, write letters to decision makers, build awareness, etc. My future goal is to work in animal rescue or rehab one day, and to live on a small farm when I retire. We have a 1 story, 4 BD house w/a large fenced backyard and we are located a short walk away to a very nice neighborhood park. Feel free to contact me anytime to discuss your needs for your precious one :-) About this sitter: Born and raised in SJ Bay area.

About: I adopted my Shiba Inu, Freddy, when he was almost 2 years old, and he turned 7 in July this year! Some people say Shibas are difficult to take care, but Freddy is absolutely amazing and well-behaved. My wife and I treat him like our son, and we walk him at least twice a day since Day 1. His meals consist of boiled chicken breast/thighs/legs, cabbages, broccoli, carrots, and dog food, etc. Spending time with dogs is one of my greatest joys because they truly are the most loyal friends humans could ever have. Having Freddy in my life has been one of my greatest blessings. From Monday to Friday, I start my workday early in the morning and finish around 2pm. Since my office is only about 10 minutes from home, I have plenty of flexibility and am free from around 3pm until midnight every day. We have a backyard where Freddy can enjoy the fresh air and sunlight, and we even built a small door so he can go in and out freely whenever he wants. Since day one, he’s been covered by pet insurance, and we make sure to bring him in for annual check-ups, including heartworm tests and comprehensive health screenings, to keep him in the best shape possible.

About: I have over 5 years of experience caring for dogs, cats, and birds. I grew up in a home full of animals, including our family dogs, cats, and a sweet cockatiel, so I’m very comfortable with different personalities and needs. I’m patient, gentle, and always make sure pets feel safe, happy, and loved. Whether it’s feeding, walking, playing, or just keeping them company, I truly enjoy taking care of animals like they’re part of the family. I have open availability and can easily work around your schedule, whether it’s weekdays, weekends, or holidays. I’m flexible, dependable, and happy to accommodate last minute needs whenever possible. I care for pets like they’re my own following their routine, giving them love, play, and comfort. I keep things clean, calm, and cozy so they feel safe and happy.

About: I am a lifelong lover and owner of pets with over 25 years of experience. Having had companions, including several dogs, cats, birds, hamsters, and even a rabbit, I have a knack and love for caring for and playing with animals. I am a current fur dad as well to an Australian Shepherd and a rambunctious little Seal Point Bengal. By the way, if your dog isn’t prey driven, I don’t mind rollerblading them and helping them to get some exercise if that is an option! All of what I make here by the way is going towards my MBA degree at USC and continuous veterinary bills for my dog with prescriptions and dietary restrictions. Pet care occupies my time outside of my day job and it gives me an excuse to get outside, provides possibilities of having some company and socialization for my dog (she does especially well with puppies), and other opportunities to get out and be the excitement in or exercise opportunity for a fur baby or fur babies outside of my own. I usually give the animal space and time to feel me out, as well as the environment if they are in my home. I know that not all animals warm up right away and that it may take several visits for the animal to become comfortable with me - I am patient and perfectly fine with this.

About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats of every kind and grew up with them since I was young. Animals have always been part of my everyday life. I have experience with senior dogs up to 15 years old, dogs recovering from surgery, and cats with different personalities. I always adjust my care to meet each pet’s needs. My dog gets along well with both dogs and cats, and since I work from home, your pet will have plenty of attention and supervision. We have a fully fenced yard and live in a quiet hillside area with very little noise or traffic, which helps keep the environment calm. I work from home, so I’m usually around throughout the day. Pets are never left home alone. When a new dog arrives, I don’t rush introductions. On the first day, I usually keep them physically separated so they can get used to each other’s scent and presence. On the second day, I allow controlled sniffing and short, supervised interactions. By the third day, I continue observing and adjusting based on their comfort level. Most dogs settle in naturally with this gradual approach. Their safety and comfort matter most to me - it’s important that they feel secure in a new environment. I never leave pets loose together without supervision. If we ever need to briefly step out, we have play pens and crates to safely separate them.

“Omigosh, let me just say. I absolutely LOVED Laurelle! She met us for a meet and greet the weekend right before our trip and she was so loving and caring with our fur babies. I know that I am a helicopter paw parent, and I felt so comfortable and safe having her stop by and take our dogs for walks. I mentioned my fear of Minnie getting lose (she’s a crazy puppy) and she assured me she would be safe. And she went the extra mile to inform me that she had her heavy duty waist harness so there’s absolute no way she could get lose. She does a BEAUTIFUL, Summary of the walks and adds lots of pictures. She is my GO TO!”

About: What sets me apart is the love and attention I give to every pet. I treat them like family, making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for. I go the extra mile with walks, playtime, and snuggles, while keeping owners updated with regular pictures and messages. Your pet’s comfort and happiness are always my top priority. I work part time, which gives me plenty of free time to care for pets. I’m available most mornings, making it easy to schedule walks, drop-ins, or cuddles when your pets need them most. I’m also flexible and can adjust to fit your pet’s routine, especially during weekdays and weekends. If pets stay in my home, I make sure they feel comfortable and part of the family—lots of playtime, walks, and snuggles. If I’m caring for pets in your home, I’ll follow their normal routine so they feel safe and relaxed. I always keep things clean, stick to feeding schedules, and send updates so you don’t have to worry while you’re away.

“Paola was reliable and respond to messages quickly. Will definitely keep her as one of our regular dog walker.”

About: I have taken care of a large variety of pets, including cats, dogs, reptiles, fish, and rodents. They have ranged from newborn to elderly, and I have experience with pets with behavioral and medical concerns. I have worked in a professional capacity as a dog groomer and in a boarding facility, and trained my own puppy, Maisie! I've been petsitting since I was young, starting with neighbors and family, and animal care remains one of my greatest passions. I'm excited to meet your beautiful pets! At this time, I'm not offering overnight services, because my own puppy is too young to be left alone at night. Throughout the day I am available to dedicate my energy to making sure your pet is happy and having all of their needs met ♥️ As a pet owner myself, I know how nerve-wracking it can be to be away from your pets. For that reason, I make sure that I know exactly the routine and requirements you're looking for in a sitter, and I keep regular communication with you — both to ensure your expectations are met and to share updates and cute photos of your furbabies whenever requested. I know how central my pets' well-being is to my life, and the safety and happiness of your beloved companions are no less important to me.

About: Hello! I'm a lifelong animal lover with years of hands on experience caring for pets of all kinds. Growing up, I had one beloved dog for 15 years, and now I'm a proud dog mom to an energetic 2 year old pitbull mix. In addition to caring for my own pets, I've helped friends and family members by looking after their dogs and other animals. Throughout my life, I've owned and cared for a variety of pets, including birds, reptiles, rabbits, hamsters, and fish, giving me experience with many different personalities and care needs. I truly adore animals and will make sure your pet receives the love, attention, and care they deserve. I am especially understanding and patient with dogs that have behavioral challenges, as I have experience with a pup who can be a handful at times. Every pet is unique, and I strive to provide a safe, caring, and stress-free environment where they feel comfortable and loved while you're away. If there is anything I should know that will make you and your dog more comfortable, please do not hesitate to be specific! I am an educator and I am currently off for summer break from June-July so I have plenty of time to care for your pet. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities while caring for them in your home. I will carefully follow your instructions and maintain your pet's normal routine to help them feel secure and stress-free. I always ensure doors, gates, and leashes are properly secured, keep a close eye on pets during walks and playtime, and make sure they have access to fresh water, meals, and any medications they may need. I will also respect your home and provide regular updates so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry family member is safe, happy, and well cared for while you're away.
