Dog Walkers in Big Sur, CA

“Valerie is wonderful! I would highly recommend her if you are in need of a dog walker”

“Shayne is amazing! My dog is very hesitant to leave the house without me but when she comes to get him he follows her right out the door and loves to be around her. She’s very consistent and always updating me and sending pictures. She’s also able to come every day I work and it brings so much relief to know my dog is getting sometime outside with someone he loves to be around!”

About: I have been a dog lover for as long as I can remember. I have years of experience walking dogs of all types. On a walk I will take your dog's overall well being very seriously, but I will also assure that they have a great time outside of the house while on their adventure. I know that putting your dog in someone else's care can be scary because I have done that personally, but I am honest, trustworthy and I truly care about every dog I encounter. I would love to take your dog on a walk! I’m currently a new graduate and waiting to start my career in the Fall. I have tons of free time until then and would love to spend it with your pup! I have a fenced in backyard and can walk them around my very safe neighborhood or walk them on a safe outdoor trail/path! There are no children in the house.

About: I have loved and taken care of animals my entire life - I believe animals are precious members of our families! They trust and love us unconditionally and it is our responsibility to ensure they are cared for as we would any other family member! My adult daughter and son-in-law are animal lovers through and through and are on hand between school and work to shower your pups with love and playtime! I work from home so am available all-day during the week for your pups with time inside and walks outside in the neighborhood and on the weekends if your pup likes we will head to the beach or longer trail walks as well. I look forward to meeting and playing with your fur baby soon! My home is available for your fur baby to come and play/rest/enjoy providing your fur baby with some company and fun and set them at ease while you are away! My adult daughter and son-in-law also live with me and are deeply involved in the care of all of our pup visitors so rest assured your pup will have lots of love and exercise (if they want 😉)!

“Mari is fabulous! Nat was a bit unhappy to be woken from her nap but Mari handled it like the pro she is. They had nice, productive walks and her communication was top notch. She was always on time, gave me a full rundown and she is a lovely person. After meeting with her, I was at ease knowing me sweet senior pup would be well taken care of and I was spot on. I will happily use Mari again and recommend her without hesitation. In fact, I already have some upcoming dates in mind and felt comfortable in booking my next trip knowing my baby would be well taken care of in my absence. Thank you Mari for taking such good care of Nat and being so accommodating.”

“Yasmine has a love for animals and especially dogs. She is extremely compassionate and knowledgeable about temperament, grooming and socialization. When she has cared for my dogs I never have to worry and know that they are in the best care possible.”

“Amazing!! Missy has a hard time with new people and Wendy was great !”

“Amanda is a true dog lover but I think it’s more the other way around. Dogs just love her energy. Her compassion and love for animals just settles their nerves when I go out of town. We always miss our babies when we travel but the peace of mind Amanda brings us priceless. Jasmine is usually anxious when I leave unless Amanda is here to house sit.”

“Always so nice to have Amy care for our pets throughout the years. She has great energy and is always willing to spend time giving them individual attention.”

About: Ever since I was little, I have always loved taking care of animals. I can't remember a single day of my life with no animals in my house. As I grew up, I've had over 6 dogs, in which were all rescues. All including bulldogs, Australian Shepards, and an Australian cattle dog. Thats not counting the ones I have spotted on the side of the road and have taking under my wing for a night or two. I've taken care of dogs as young as 6 months old to as old as they can get. I also have had cats my entire life. I grew up taking care and nursing kittens back to health as well as assisted with queening (cat giving birth). I've also dealt with and am dealing with the rowdy, awkward, chaotic stage of the teenage 8-month-old cats. Definitely feel like banging my head on the wall a few times with those guys. I have experience house sitting with multiple animals in the same residence. Some including two cats and two dogs to my most recent one with two cats and a 16-year-old lab. Not only have I taken care of cats and dogs, but I also have taken care of horses, guinea pigs, and fish. I am currently working part-time (weekends) and go to community college online, so I have plenty of time to take your furry friends for a stroll. I love going on walks around the neighborhood. I also love hiking so if you want, they can always tag along. I even have a cat backpacks and harnesses too! I have a fenced in yard and have two friend furry pups to keep your animal's company. Both are dog friendly and cat friendly as they both grew up with seeing many different faces. If needed I can also crate your animal as well. In my house dogs are allowed onto the beds and couch's but if that's a problem please let me know beforehand. If in your house there is any rule regarding certain places they can and can't go, please do inform me.I also will only take care of one client at a time so they have my full attention.

“Andrew was amazing. He was able to walk my dog same day and had flexibility. We appreciate him very much.”

“You will not find a more caring, loving and trustworthy care giver for your dog. Sean has cared for our 2 labrador retrievers in everyway; dog walking, dog feeding, dog sitting and staying in our home while we were on vacation. We are VERY particular when it comes to someone caring for our labs and Sean suppasses all expectations. He is responsible, reliable, prompt and most importantly has a wonderful rapport with our dogs. I have seen Sean in action and he plays, cuddles and walks our 2 big girls with great care. I have used several dog walkers and care givers and without a doubt, Sean is the best around!”

About: I love all animals unconditionally, I will be happy to take them on walks, playtime, cuddle time or even nap time! I am a very trustworthy candidate. I currently have a full time job so I’m mostly available on the weekends but I can do evenings during the week as well! My schedule can vary so let’s talk about it! I have a fenced backyard and I have a sweet pup of my own however I have many rooms that are not in use where I can keep my dog by herself since she’s a big girl and gets really excited. Cuddles are guaranteed!

“Kyrsten rocks as a pet sitter! Our dog adore her, and we can travel worry-free knowing Lita is in good hands. Highly recommend Kyrsten for pet happiness!”

About: I’ve owned dogs throughout most stages of my life and over several decades, mostly labradors and cocker spaniels. Recently my neighbor had 13 puppies over two litters and I was able to help raise them. At times, I was watching six puppies have free reign in a play area without fences … chaotic but fun! I am currently available at all times and happy to help. I do not currently own a pet so I am able to give my full attention to your dog. I would follow your household rules, of course. Generally I would make sure the dog has access to food and water and any available training treats. The time would be used for play and cuddling.

“Jess is our family pets loving patience care giver. They just love they way he speaks to them with a genuine care for their comfort, while we away from them. His nature walks with our pets are calming while meeting their activity needs. I never worry about my pets when in Jess’s care. Our family members often mention that caring for animals is Jess’s true joy in life.”
