Dog Walking Berthoud

About: I live in a very full and very happy home of five rescue doggos and a cat-that-thinks-she-is-a-dog. Needless to say, I juggle many different personalities, needs, and quirks every day. I feel most fulfilled getting to know animals for who they are and building trust at their own pace. I use positive reinforcement and pay close attention to behavioral cues, especially with dogs who are anxious, fearful, or need a little extra patience. I have hands-on experience managing multi-dog dynamics, including situations with food or fear aggression, so I’m very intentional about following each pet’s specific routine and your instructions. Alongside pet care, I’ve spent nearly two decades teaching dance to all ages, which taught me how to corral a group of strong personalities. The skills translate well: patience, awareness, and keeping structure and calm when things get a little unpredictable. At the end of the day, I treat every animal like a whole little person—just one who might occasionally eat something they absolutely shouldn’t. I keep a flexible schedule and can accommodate a range of routines. I book thoughtfully so I can be fully present, reliable, and consistent for your pets. My approach centers on safety, trust, and a calm, low-stress environment. I follow routines closely, read each pet’s cues, and let them warm up at their own pace so they feel secure and understood—not overwhelmed.

“Dana is very responsive, consistent & reliable. I've always worked from home since I adopted my dog & she made me feel at ease knowing Koda was in good hands.”

“I can always rely on Robin when we need a dog walker. She is great! My dog created a mess with her automatic dog feeder and Robin was kind enough to clean it up. She is also great at communicating. I would highly recommend her!”

“LOVED having Angel walk our dog a couple times a week. Her photos and comments are great and let us know how Sydney is doing during the day. You can tell she really cares for animals, it isn't just lip service, and has a heart of gold. We've been very happy!!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was a kid. I promise to take care of yours like they’re my own. I am currently only offering visits to your house. These are for 30 minutes and can be for anything your pup or cats need. For example, I have one dog who loves to walk. So we walk for 30 and then I spend a few minutes filling up water bowls, etc. I have another dog who just really likes to sunbathe and get pets in her backyard. So we do that. I am very flexible to you and your dogs needs 😊 I hope you have a wonderful day and I would love the opportunity to meet you in the future. I am available to take care of your animals on your timetable. Whether you’re at work or on vacation, I am available to help once or multiple times a day. I will treat your animals and home like my own, with the utmost care and attention. I will not only care for your animals, but respect your privacy and belongings.

“She was go great and patient with my two babies. They fell in love with her. I’m definitely going to be booking her again. I love that she sent me pictures and a review after every walk! thank you so so much.”

“My little guy is a tough cookie to crack. He is a bit worried and stand off-ish with new people. Thank you Izzy for being as calm and patient as you were with him! He came around to you ❣️”

About: Hi! I am a lifelong animal lover and experienced pet mom with a home full of personalities - including 4 dogs (Great Dane puppy mixes, a Great Pyr mix, and a senior pittie who keeps things interesting) and 3 cats. Because of that, I am super comfortable with all sizes, breeds, and temperaments - from giant, high energy dogs, to tiny sensitive guys who need a little extra love, and even the occasional grumpy senior. I truly understand how important it is to keep pets in their normal routine while you're away and I have experience with training, medicine administration, and specialized diets as well as feeding schedules. My goal during every interaction with your babies is to make them as comfy as possible while maintaining their routine, and make them feel loved while their people are away. I am especially patient with shy, anxious, or older pets and always adjust my approach based on what they need. I also know how important communication is, so you will get updates and photos regularly! As a pet mom myself, I know how much trust it takes to leave your babies with someone, so I make sure to treat every pet like they're my own! I work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to accommodate most drop-in visits, feeding schedules, potty breaks, and pet care routines throughout the day. Since caring for my own pets is already a part of my daily routine, providing reliable and consistent care for other pets fits very naturally into my schedule. I care for every pet based on their individual needs and routine. I am used to managing multiple pets with different personalities, feeding schedules, diets, and energy levels. Safety, consistency and comfort are always my priority. For drop-in visits, I make sure pets get plenty of attention, potty breaks, playtime, fresh food & water, meds if needed, and love! I am happy to follow specific instructions closely. I am also open to pet sitting in my home for animals who are dog, cat and kid friendly. My home is very pet-centered, and I understand how important it is for animals to feel safe and cared for.

About: In college, I worked at a vet hospital in the boarding section of the building. I administered medications, as well as played with the dogs and looked over the cats while they were boarding with us. I’ve pet sat for many friends, family and coworkers over the years. I’m also currently raising a poodle puppy of my own. I’m on maternity leave through mid July. I’ll be very available to check in on your pet through that time. In July, I’ll be available Tuesdays, Fridays, and the weekends. I have a fenced yard and a very friendly male poodle if you pet stays with me. I can also take your dogs on walks, cuddle on the couch, play fetch, or whatever they need!

“Kassiandra was great with my dog. Communication was fast and I was so thankful that she was able to accept my last minute request. I’m a new mom and my dog desperately needed the exercise. Thank you!”

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I genuinely love caring for pets as if they were my own. I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities, and I understand that every pet has their own unique needs and routine. One thing that sets me apart is that I work from home, which gives me the flexibility to provide plenty of attention, companionship, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and updates throughout the day. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers a slower pace and extra cuddles, I’m happy to adapt to what makes them most comfortable. When caring for pets in your home, I treat your space with the same respect I would want for my own. I strive to leave your home clean and tidy, follow all instructions carefully, and provide regular communication so you can enjoy your time away with peace of mind.

About: I have owned a dog for most of my life - usually just one at a time. I grew up with the sweetest Dalmatian, named Sanjuik, our family dog who we had since before I can remember. A little Chiweenie named Malik who passed in 2024, was my companion throughout my 20s. I'm now in my 30s with a red heeler mix named Jupiter. All of my dogs are in my photos, including my Dalmatian and myself as a child. I am the guy that all pets gravitate towards at any home I enter, every dog park I am greeted just as much as the other dogs there. I just understand dogs somehow, and most people are quick to point it out! I have cared for family, friend's and neighbor's pets my whole life since I was child. There has very rarely been a pet that doesn't immediately love me and I always love them right back! I'm always acutely aware of an animal's unique personality, mood, emotions, needs & desires and match my energy to what they need from me. I am able to take care of your pets in your home on your schedule, either daily or overnight. I'm more than happy to take dogs on walks, provide social stimulation, interaction with other dogs in your neighborhood (or my dog, Jupiter) at a dog park, if you would like, etc. For cats, I know that feeding schedules and food preparation/feeding is important, as well social interaction and playful stimulation as well. I have a cat and a dog in my home, so I would need to have a few trial runs with other pets in my home before opening this service, so if you are looking for that, please know that it will be new to me and I don't want to provide a bad situation for your pets or mine. For now, I would love to take care of your pets daily or overnight(s) in your home, walk dogs, set up interactive play dates, etc.

“Shawn is the absolute best. So kind, reliable, knowledgable and with an overall fantastic energy that BOTH you and your pets are going to hugely sense and appreciate!”

“AJ was professional and friendly and took time to meet my new rescue dog before starting service. AJ took extra care of my dog, providing lots of care for him and communicating with photos and updates after their visit. I would highly recommend AJ!”

About: I have had cats and dogs since I was very young and during that time I had taken care of the litter of kittens that my cat had produced. I also make sure that all my pets get the medications and particular carving for the food. I am currently home full time with two dogs that don’t really need immense care so I can pop out and take care of the dogs or cats whenever I am needed. I also wake up nice and early in case it is needed. I take them for walk daily and I have a fenced yard in the back and a few extra leashes in case they are needed. My dogs can be out up if they needed to but after some time they will acclimate to the other pets in the house and be more friendly with them.

About: I have been a pet owner and lover for over 25 years and currently own 3 large dogs, 2 horses, a donkey, 6 goats, 2 cats, and a flock of chickens. Growing up my family ran a dog boarding facility which I started helping with at a very young age. We foster dogs through Sunshine Canyon rescue and I also gentle wild burrls to help find them safe homes. I am also a therapist who is trained in animal assisted therapy. I'm currently a full time therapist who works from home so my availability is very flexible to meet you and your pets needs. I am available for walks, drops ins, and for right fit doggy daycare or multiple day care on our 10 acre ranch. We live on 10 acres with no fenced in yard and have 3 dogs of our own. Our place is a dream come true to most dogs who love to run or play. I love animals and will treat them as my own when taking care of them in yours or my home. You know your animals best and I'm here to give them the care you direct.

“Lisa has been wonderful. She is excellent at communicating, prompt, and most of all patient with our challenging dog. Both of our dogs love her.”
