Dog Walking in Carlsbad

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was very young, from my childhood dog to my own dog i adopted at 18. My sammie boy passed about a year ago and i’ve been needing some animal therapy without having to go through the heartbreak of having my own again. I would love to be your furry friends walking companion! I work full time Monday through friday 530 am-1:30 pm. I am available anytime throughout the week after 130 pm but i am flexible I have a large fenced in backyard, a 15 minute walk from the beach and I’m able to give as many updates as needed.

“Jay is truly exceptional. He walks my husky —and not just quick strolls, but long, energizing adventures that leave my dog happily exhausted. I’m consistently impressed by how much exercise my pup gets with him. Jay is the most professional dog walker I’ve ever worked with: always on time, consistently communicative, and thoughtful enough to send great photos and a map of where they walked. Most importantly, my dog absolutely loves him. Their connection is obvious, and it gives me total peace of mind. I can honestly say there’s no one I trust more with my dog. I recommend him without hesitation to anyone looking for pet care.”

About: As a big time dog lover, I would love to spend some time taking care of and loving on your fur baby! I have many years of experience with dog ownership, rescue dog fostering, and dog sitting. I also have experience taking care of and training rescue dogs with reactivity or anxiety. I am currently working part-time and have significant capacity to make sure that your pet is well taken care of when you are away. Whether that be providing companionship by relaxing on the couch, or going for a nice long walk or a run at the park or beach. Having used Rover as a dog owner, I know the importance of communication! I will send regular updates with photos of your pup so you know what we are up to and don't have to think twice while you are away. Spending time with dogs is like my own personal therapy and it always makes me feel happy to have a animal friend around. I recently had a long-term foster who I miss dearly, and I would love to have some more dog time in my life. I am currently working in person on Tuesday's and Thursday's and have limited availability those days, but starting in June I will be fully remote and available. I prefer to watch the pet at my home as I have ample space and a big, fenced in backyard for them to play and go potty! I also am open to and have experience with crating dogs for night time or when being left alone if that is prefferred.

About: Hi! I can’t wait to meet your pup or kitty. 🐶🐱 I grew up with small dogs and I have years of experience with dog walking, pet sitting, and boarding for dogs of all sizes. I have owned a cat before too and have experience caring for them. I have fostered for SD Humane Society so I am comfortable with all breeds, including Pit Bulls, Doberman, German Shepherds, and more. I’m a dog mama myself to a sweet pittie rescue pup. I adore all breeds and truly care to make your pet feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I look forward to taking care of your fur baby. ❤️ *Unfortunately Rover takes a portion of the earnings so prices are higher. I’m open to working outside the app to find a price that works for you. I work week days 7am-4pm. Otherwise, I’m available the remainder of the time for your pet! I’m currently only offering overnight care in your home - no overnight in my home. However I can offer a short daycare visit, as long as your dog gets along great with other dogs — as I do own a medium pup myself. I have a rescue dog (spaniel mix), around 35 pounds who gets along well with all dogs and people. I do not bring her to any rover jobs, unless you have a dog who would enjoy a playdate and specifically ask about her. Since I’m a dog owner myself, I’m always overly cautious for the pets safety and well-being. Pets are kept close to ensure that their safety is always #1.

“Kristina is a natural with animals and my Jake loved her as soon as he met her. She has experience with dogs and we couldn’t be happier with her. We will definitely use her again and again!”

About: Hello 👋 I have plenty of time to spend with your furry family members while you’re on vacation or working. I accept dogs up to 40 pounds. Must be non aggressive. I would love to meet and create a bond with your dogs. I just moved from San Diego to stay near family and I am a stay at home mom so I can watch your dogs all day. I have plenty of experience and we had dogs growing up. I am currently taking new clients and I am available on holidays as well. I have plenty of time to spend with your dogs or cats. I am open to boarding up to 2 dogs at the time. I am also open to boarding cats when I don’t have dogs unless both cat and dog come from the same family. I am active and love to go on walks with dogs. I am currently open Monday-Sunday. I don’t have a pet of my own. We have a nice fenced yard and my sister currently dog-sits in the house next to me. We can do a meet and greet so your dog/ cat can get familiar with me before they stay or I do drop in visits at your place.

“First time booking Adam and he was great! He walked my dog everyday for a week. Adam is professional, a great communicator and wonderful with my dog. Highly recommend his services.”

About: What sets me apart is how much I truly care about making both you and your pet feel comfortable and supported. I’ve grown up caring for family dogs for several years, so I’m very familiar with daily walks, playtime, and making dogs feel safe and loved. I’m reliable, patient, and treat every dog like they’re part of my own family. I take the time to understand each dog’s personality, routine, and comfort level so they feel secure, happy, and excited for our time together. I’m also very communicative and will always keep you updated with photos and notes so you feel confident your pup is in great hands. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine because I currently work remotely and have a very flexible schedule. This allows me to step away during the day for walks and give pets my full attention when I’m with them. I’m most available for walks in the late mornings through early afternoons, which is perfect for getting pups out for some fresh air, exercise, and a break during the day. My goal is to make every walk a safe, positive, and enjoyable part of your dog’s day. I follow your dog’s usual walking routine, from their preferred pace to familiar routes they love. During walks, I prioritize safety, secure leash handling, and staying aware of our surroundings. After each walk, I ensure your dog has water, is comfortable, and settled before I leave. I’ll also share updates and a quick recap so you always know how the walk went.

About: Hi, I'm Alex! I'm an Oceanside local here to make sure your furry family members are loved and cared for whether you're down the street or across the world. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and overnight home sitting for both dogs and cats. Every visit includes a photo update so you always know your pet is happy and safe. A little about me: I've been around dogs and cats my whole life and I treat every animal in my care like my own. I require a meet & greet before every new booking. I want to know your pet's routine, quirks, and favorite spots before you leave, so the transition is stress-free for them. I'm fully insured, background checked, and committed to being the reliable, consistent person your pet looks forward to seeing. Serving Oceanside and North County San Diego. I'm available seven days a week and happy to work around whatever schedule works best for you and your pet. Morning, midday, evening, and overnight bookings are all available. Consistency matters to me - if I commit to a booking, I show up. When I'm in your home I treat it with the same respect I'd want for my own. I double-check that doors and gates are securely closed before releasing any dog, and I never walk multiple unfamiliar dogs together without prior approval from both owners. For cats I make sure windows are closed and secure before opening any doors inside the home. I always confirm feeding instructions, medication schedules, and emergency vet information before a booking begins - ideally at the meet & greet. If anything seems off with your pet's health or behavior during a visit, I contact you immediately rather than waiting. Your house key and access information are kept secure and never shared with anyone.

“Sachi was so friendly and communicative and was so attentive to details around my dog and his needs! I fully trusted her with my boy and would definitely ask for her help again in the future. Thank you Sachi!”

My approach to pet care is always personalized to meet the unique needs of each animal, ensuring their comfort, safety, and happiness. Depending on the services requested, here’s how I typically provide care: Feeding: I follow the specific dietary instructions provided by the pet owner, including portion size, feeding times, and any special dietary needs or restrictions. I make sure fresh water is always available. Medication: If pets require medication, I administer it carefully according to the owner’s directions. This includes pills, topical treatments, or any other prescribed care, while closely monitoring the pet for any side effects or changes in behavior. Walking and Exercise: For dogs, regular walks tailored to their energy levels and physical condition are a priority. I ensure they get enough exercise and bathroom breaks to keep them healthy and happy. I’m attentive to leash safety and environmental conditions during walks. Play and Enrichment: Pets receive plenty of interactive playtime, stimulation, and affection to keep them mentally engaged and emotionally satisfied. This might include playing with toys, training exercises, or just spending quiet cuddle time.

I know the love that goes into our four legged babies and I will love your extended fur babies, big or small as if though they were your children.

I want you to feel comfortable leaving me in your home and feel relaxed to enjoy yourself when away.
