Dog Walkers in Big Oak Flat, CA

“Kenneth is amazing with my pets. My dog takes a while to warm up to new people, but warmed up to Kenneth immediately. Greatest pet sitter ever. I highly recommend this him. He is amazing with dog and cats and is always reliable. Provided great pics with his walks. So happy I found Kenneth to help, when I travel.”

“As reluctant as I was to allow a stranger to come into my home, I was that much more hesitant to allow a stranger to walk my three dogs, in the end I knew I had no other choice but to hire someone due to my work schedule. While searching I came across Jef’s profile and I decided to go with him in booking dog walking for my three dogs. Jef even came to meet my dogs before he was to begin walking them the following day. From the initial message to the first time meeting, Jef maintained great communication and updated me each day after their walks. Jef definitely has something about him that made my dogs very comfortable around him. He quickly gained their trust and vice versa. Jef is also very persistent and knowledgeable in training dogs and helping to improve any bad leash habits. I will definitely be booking Jef for any future needs and I would definitely recommend him to anyone with pets.”

About: I have always had the responsibility of caring for my own animals, but I love getting to help other people care for their pets. I love meeting new animals and have lots of experience in this area. I have been walking dogs around my neighborhood since I was about 10 years old. I loved this experience which is why I have decided to dedicate myself to this line of work so I can always be available to help an animal in need. Currently I work an evening shift at a restaurant 4 nights a week so I have the day open before 5 pm Friday through Monday and Tuesday Wednesday Thursday I am completely available. My schedule also will be opening up more soon. I have a very large area for dogs to run around and two very friendly dogs of my own. I always start by making sure the space is free of any hazards, like toxic plants or loose wires and that they have a cozy spot just for them. Building trust is key, so I take things slow, using positive reinforcement like treats and praise to create a bond. Whether it's playtime or just chilling, I'm all about keeping their routine consistent to minimize stress.

About: I have over 20 years experience taking care of other people’s “fur babies”. I love them like they are mine. I am very responsible, dependable, observant and able to handle any unexpected situations that might arise. I am self-employed and work part-time so I have a lot of availability. I have the ability (and desire) to give pets quality time and attention. Every pet is unique and their needs are different. Some pets prefer physical connection while others prefer having a ball thrown for them to chase. Like us, pets each have their own love language. I endeavor to “speak” love in the language each pet prefers.

About: I have owned dogs, horses, chickens and pigs my entire life. Prior to having my twins, I worked at a vet office for three years as a receptionist and vet assistant. While working at the vet office, I pet sat for clients dogs and cats when they went out of town. I also worked at a pet boarding facility before the vet, but at both places I cared for all the animals as if they were my own. I am currently working part-time night shift, I am a mom to my twin daughters that are three years old and my son who is seven months old. My husband is a mobile mechanic and makes his own schedule so if there is a prior commitment that I have my husband can be around for the short time that I am out. I treat every animal and home I pet sit at as if they're my own! I love sharing pictures with the clients to ensure they can feel at ease that they’re pet is being well cared for.

“Thanks so much for walking Loki!”

About: I am a born and raised farm girl. I have taken care of all kinds of animals especially dogs and cats. I love to take them on walks around the neighborhood. I have a lot of experience in general care and would love to meet and care for your fur babies. I am currently a part-time student and work mainly online so I will have plenty of time to be with your pets and spend quality time playing/exercising. I have friendly fur babies here at home that would love to play with yours. I do happen to have one dog who isn't as friendly but he is always crated when other dogs are around so there is no worries in your pets getting hurt here. I assure you that they will get the best care and love here.

About: I grew up on a ranch, so I have extensive experience with all types of birds, horses, goats, cats, and dogs. I’ve house/pet sit for family and friends over the years. I have one fur baby of my own that stays with my parents when I’m not home. Dogs are the sweetest animals to walk this earth, change my mind. I work three days a week traveling, so I typically have 4 days a week available. Can travel in the Calaveras and Tuolumne county areas. My schedule give me the flexibility to check in with your pet throughout the day. Unfortunately, I don’t offer pet sitting for my house as I live with friends. I’m happy to take care of your pet in the comfort of their own home/ safe space. I am ever vigilant on walks and take into account things like daily temperature when scheduling or planning walks/outings.

“Best experience by far!! Viktoriya was super friendly and she even brought her dog and some treats along (both with my permission) and I swear my dog honestly couldn't have had a better time than this. Highly recommend!!”

About: I have been caring for pets as long as I can remember. My family always had family dogs and cats when I was growing up in addition to the occasional turtle, bird, and fish. I’m very comfortable with any animal you may own with four legs and have experience in providing care for special needs dogs including giving medication as needed. I currently have two cats and two rabbits of my own so I know how important it is that your pets get the proper care and attention. Currently I am in my off season waiting for the fire season to start back up in June. Luckily for you that means that I am available every day of the week, excluding a few hours on Sundays for church but I can happily still make sure your pets aren’t alone for the rest of the day. I have my phone with myself more often than not so please reach out anytime. Whatever your preferences are for your pets I am happy to accommodate! I am very active and love to play with animals that like to play or chill with those that are more laid back. Your pets are important to you and I pride myself on being someone that you can be confident and comfortable with having your pets in good hands.

About: I’ve had dogs since I was a kid. I currently have a 3 year old beagle named Stan who loves to be outside. I have had several dogs with different energy levels - from a crazy Jack Russell to a super sweet golden retriever. I am very patient and most of my dogs have been rescues. Stan came from an animal testing facility & had never been outside or touched grass when I rescued him. I work remotely from home with a really flexible schedule. I live on 3 acres with my beagle, Stan. I’m very active & love to hike. Stan loves other friendly dogs and would be a great buddy for your dog. We love to snuggle up and takes lots of walks. I do have a crate here at my house if that is needed.

About: Hello! I am 25 years old and I am a huge animal lover and would love to get to know your pets. I am based in Tuolumne near Sonora, CA. I’m extremely active in my day to day so daily exercise will be a guarantee. If allowed, I would love to take your pet on local walks or runs. I’ve had experiences with animals almost my whole life and I have a dog of my own. My dog, Riley, is a 7 year old German Shepherd/Border Collie mix. He goes to Grandma’s when I am housesitting! I grew up taking care of animals and riding horses. I’ve watched hamsters, guinea pigs, dogs, goats, sheep, and horses for friends while they were away. There’s no animal I wouldn’t love! I work part-time so I’m very flexible and can be available for multiple check ins throughout the day. I will make sure your pet gets lots of love just like my own pupper <3 I am very flexible for whatever schedule your pets need and have a very active lifestyle.

I would care for your pet exactly as you would like. I’m very responsible and clean.

“My dog Tonka loved Kinny for the walk and she was attentive to me being a bonehead and leaving the oven on! Crisis averted and will definitely keep Kinny in mind for next time.”

My journey as an animal enthusiast and companion spans across my life. Growing up, I've shared my home with a diverse range of animals, from playful puppies to spirited teenage dogs, and even wise senior canine citizens. This experience has not only deepened my love for animals but has also provided me with a comprehensive understanding of their needs and behaviors at every life stage. With my part-time job and flexible schedule, pet care easily fits into my routine. I make sure to stick to a regular feeding and walking schedule, and I use my free time to play and bond with my pet. Grooming and vet appointments are scheduled during my available hours, ensuring my furry friend gets the attention they need. This balanced approach helps me provide the best care for my pet while managing my work commitments. I've established a solid routine for looking after pets at clients' homes and during walks or drop-ins. Alongside ensuring they have proper food, water, exercise, and playtime, I'm careful to adhere to any specific guidelines provided by the pet owners. This can involve tasks like giving medications, sticking to their regular schedule, and creating a secure setting. I also maintain open communication with clients to foster trust and guarantee the well-being, happiness, and health of their pets.

About: I've got 23 years of veterinary technician experience as well as petsitting experience. I also worked for an organization that rescues Cocker Spaniels for 3 years. I was the manager and I took care of 25 dogs at a time as well as 2 horses, 2 goats, 2 pigs, 4 roosters, and a feral cat colony. I fed all the animals, cleaned their living quarters, picked up the yards, bathed as well as shave them if needed, nail trims, sanitary clips, administered medications of all types, did basic training with them, went to vet appointments if needed, laundry, and walked them. Being in the veterinary field has been a blessing for many clients whom have hired me to care for their furry babies because I am more attune at things many people may not notice. Clients are very grateful for that knowledge. I also water plants and clean houses and bring in mail for overnight stays. I am currently a stay at home mom with lots of time to spare. I've always juggled pet care and my family with no issues. I follow the instructions the client gives me no matter what. If they want the dog to wear a harness while.out for walks, then that's what I will do. If they don't want the dog left unattended outside even though they have a fenced in yard, then I'll stay out with them for as long as needed. I always do a parameter check to make sure there are no holes in the ground for the dog to have access to escape.

“Kian did a great job especially on a very hot day.”
