Dog Walking in Californial Heights, Long Beach, CA

“Raymond has been my dog walker for a while now. I have a big boy, who can sometimes be a lot but Raymond always treated him with care. My dog comes back happily tired after his walks. Even with last minute requests, Raymond has made it available to walk my dog. Thank you! Definitely recommend him to anyone!!”

About: Hi! I’m Sophia, a lifelong dog lover based in Lakewood, CA, where I live with three rescue pups. I’ve been caring for dogs since I was a kid - from energetic puppies to senior sweethearts. Nowadays I'm the go-to pet sitter for my family and friends. With a career in government and politics, I bring the same level of professionalism, dependability, and attention to detail to every walk, drop-in, or overnight stay. Whether your pup needs a leisurely stroll or a high-energy adventure, I’ll treat them like one of my own. Let’s get those tails wagging! Right now, I’m focusing solely on dog walking and pet care as I take a break from my full-time career. I’ve always loved being around animals, and this time has given me the opportunity to fully dedicate myself to caring for dogs—whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or just making sure they feel safe and loved. Since my schedule is currently flexible, I’m able to prioritize each pup’s unique needs and build consistent, dependable routines with them. It’s something I genuinely enjoy and feel passionate about every day. While I don’t offer care in my own home because I have three rescue dogs, I’m more than happy to care for pets in their own familiar environment. I believe dogs feel most comfortable and secure in their own space, so I focus on keeping their routine consistent—whether that’s feeding, walking, playtime, or cuddle time. I pay close attention to each pet’s needs and personality and make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while their owners are away. I also keep owners updated with regular check-ins, photos, and notes for peace of mind.

About: Puppy cleanup, Obedience training or freestyle, Heinz 57 to AKC, I enjoy their company and I can keep them safe when our and about or at home. I am available for this work 7 days a week and holidays. From morning through evening. I especially like working with your babies on Sundays. I do dog walking and pet sitting in your home. Dogs and cats. Puppies and kittens. Big litters are ok too. Brushing, leash training. Many skills.

About: I've been around dogs my whole life since elementary school having a couple of different breeds in my home from maltipoos to huskies. I've grown to become patient and dedicated to learning how to handle all different kinds of energy levels and tempermants. I've taught my puppies basic obedience training, understand puppy needs from house training to endless playtime, providing gentle and patient care especially for older dogs to make sure they're comfortable and safe. My experience comes from years of caring for dogs belonging to neighbors, friends, and family. I'm currently waiting for my work start date in August and am available to walk everyday early morning to night time and during work hours too! Your furry friend's safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I want to make sure I create a secure and positive environment for them. I will make sure to take the time to get acquainted and warm up with your dog and build a bond of trust. I will offer small treats to make sure they're comfortable with me. I'll make sure to walk them in a nice, peaceful and calm route so they aren't overstimulated. I'll make sure the concrete isn't too hot for their delicate paws before stepping out. I'll give them lots of sniffing opportunities, make sure they aren't getting close to hazardous objects or waste on our walk. Afterwards, I'll wipe their paws and make sure their body is clear of any random objects that might've caught onto their coat/inside their entryways. I want to make sure I keep a stress-free, enriching and overall safe walking experience for your pet so they're happy and tired when they come back home! :)

About: I’m a recent college grad with a passion for pet care! I’ve been taking care of animals since I was 5 years old.

I’m currently working part time so my schedule is quite open! I care for my pets every day and would love to add yours to my routine. I live in a very cat-friendly home outfitted with the finest luxuries for my felines (not one but TWO cat trees). I also have a puppy gate in my backyard.

About: I am a CPDT-KA certified trainer as well as Fear-Free certified, and have been working for over 2 years as a trainer. I’ve worked with all ages of dogs and cats and would love to take care of your pets! I work for myself as a trainer so I can make my own schedule! I have plenty of time to come to your house or have your pet stay with me. I have a fenced yard and a pool to keep your pet entertained, and we have plenty of training and enrichment activities for your pet. I live with another dog but he is cared for by my parents so your pup will have my full attention! I also have a crate so your pup can feel right at home. If I come to your house, I can bring all my enrichment and training things too so your pup will have lots of fun.

About: I love dogs and know how important they are to their family. I've been around dogs throughout my whole life and have watched all kinds of dogs varying in size and age, and will take care of your dog with the love and attention they deserve. I have a flexible work-from-home situation and work on-call in the evenings so I tend to have a lot of time in the weekdays. I can usually accommodate last-minute care if my availability is free. I have an 11-year-old dog (mixed-breed, medium size) who can accompany your dog if you'd like them to get interaction. Comfortable walking up to 3 dogs at a time, can feed, play fetch, and crate your dog if required to help them exercise and stay on track with their usual schedule.

About: Pets are family and animals are my life! I have always had pets growing up as a child and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. I have a passion for learning and understanding all different types of animals. My experience in pet care is from having my own pets as well as caring for family and friends pets. I'm currently employed by Trots Dogs Walking, which has added to my knowledge and experience. I provide safe, nurturing care for all animals. I’m friendly and trustworthy putting pets and their families at ease with reliable, loving care. I'm currently working part time as a dog walker for Trots Dogs, so I have plenty of down time throughout the week to pet sit and love your furries. I follow the specific instructions and guidelines, ensuring all pets are safe, well-fed, exercised, loved, and comfortable. I make sure each and every family pet member is taken care of just like you would.

About: I missed having dogs at home. Unfortunately I lost both of them last year. I had them for 16yrs. I have experience with senior dogs. I know how to put injections such as Insuline shots and give them medicine. I live in Long Beach, very close to LBG, very convenient airport. I like to keep the dogs at the house and just have a daily routine as they do at own home. I tried not to take them to places unless is required. I'm currently working part time and working from home. I'm available most week days and weekends. I'd rather take reservations from Thursday thru Sunday and some holidays too. Only one family at the time, no more than 3 pets. I just moved to Long Beach. Bixby Knolls area. Very close to Long Beach Airport. Very convenient and easy airport to flight from. Safe environment, a lot of places to go for a walk and 3 story townhouse, hard wood floors with small balcony, small patio and garage. Enough space to spoiled your dog. Gates to keep the dogs away from the stairs as well.

“As always Shawn does an amazing dog of caring for my pup.”

Our pup was a vital part of our lives and his care was our priority - we’d love to share that same love with other animal friends out there! As educators who work remotely, we have the flexibility and time to provide personalized attention and a safe, comfortable environment for your companions. We genuinely enjoy spending time in our local community and would be thrilled to include your pet in our daily routines.

Your pet will enjoy companionship, regular walks, and plenty of love. Why choose us? * Experienced & Caring: While our hearts are still healing from the loss of Milo, our years of experience caring for him have instilled in us a deep understanding of animal needs and a genuine love for them. Plus, both of us grew up with different household pets and family cats and dogs so it truly is natural for us! * Flexible & Available: Our remote work schedule allows us to be readily available for your pet care needs. * Safe & Secure Environment: Your pet's safety and well-being are our top priorities.

Working from home in a space with access to a yard and a walkable neighborhood makes for the opportunity for your furry friend to spend their days (and/or nights) with complete access to company, bathroom breaks, walks, and of course some treats too! With our dog Milo, we never left him home alone for more than 4 hours at a time and most days it was less than 1 - safe to say all 3 of us had a little separation anxiety! With that in mind, know that we get how important the comfort of our pet companions is and in our care your furry friend will have every comfort of company we can provide. In our home we have 4 separate spaces that can be enclosed. There is also a fenced in yard for our friends who like to spend time lounging in the grass or on the warm stone pavement in the garden. Our home is located in a comfy and quaint neighborhood with tree lined streets, great sidewalks and parkways for walking, and even some nearby parks. We are patient and very loving and will adhere to all specifications to suit your pets needs. It’s so important to us that everyone feels safe, comfy, and can have fun while away!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs ever since I was little. I am a dog mom myself and love spending time outdoors. I have had neighbors asked me to take care of there babies before. I am currently working part time during the night time so I am free all day to spend time with your pup. I can take care of your pup for the day or just for a walk whatever you prefer. I have two friendly dogs who love to play. They are very friendly and we love to walk and go to the dog park, beach, or on a hike all the time.

About: I grew up with all different types of animals in the house. We had puppies all the way through senior dogs in my home and my mom had her own pet care business that I often helped her with. I miss caring for pets! I work part-time in a restaurant so I am available often. My shifts tend to not be too long so I'm generally available before and/or after! I am used to having instructions explained in regards to specific care for your pet. I will ensure it is the care they require/deserve. I'm very accommodating and want to make sure the experience of being apart from you is as comfortable as it possibly can be for your pet.

About: I have loved animals my whole life. I’m well experienced with cats and dogs of all sizes and all different temperaments and personalities . I have worked as a veterinary assistant and pet sitter / walker for 5 years now and have loved every minute of it.

I also have awesome belly rubbing and treat giving skills as well. I treat every pet as if they were my own and my pup is pretty spoiled. I would absolutely love to pet sit / walk your fur baby on those busy work days, out of town trips and holidays.

About: At 6 feet tall, I’ve got the strength to handle even the rowdiest pups, but my real superpower is connection + gentleness. I’ve been loving and living with dogs and cats since I was a kid, and I treat every pet like family. Whether it’s an energizing walk or a calm cuddle session, your fur baby is in safe, loving hands. I’m currently working part-time, which means I’m typically available during mornings and afternoons — perfect for regular walks, playtime, or just keeping your pet company while you’re away. I genuinely love walks, animals, sunshine, and being out in nature, and I bring that positive, grounded energy into every visit. I care for every pet like I do my own three sweet kitties — with love, attention, and a focus on their comfort and safety. In each client’s home, I create a calm, clean, and caring environment where pets feel secure and happy.
