Dog Walkers in Carmel-by-the-Sea, CA

“Bria was so amazing with Banjo. She sent lots of pictures and updates and was easy to communicate with. I will definitely use her again!”

“Elizabeth has taken care of my puppers Lupa, a siberian husky with silliness, energy, vocal opinions, and mischievous proclivities; so Elizabeth can definitely handle caring for a wide range of personalities. Elizabeth is compassionate, gentle, and is loved by animals of all kinds. She has experience with cats and dogs alike, has sufficient experience training dogs (having fostered multiple dogs prior to becoming guide dogs. She will follow whatever plans and rules you give her and ensure your furry family is taken care of. I don’t think Lupa had time to miss me or my partner with the fun she had with Elizabeth. She’s amazing!”

“Arlene has been absolutely wonderful for Shay, I’m so happy to have found her! Thank you for taking good care of my girl, I know she really looks forward to her daily walks 💜”

“Natalie walked Oso twice and I was completely comfortable both times! She followed instructions and took the best care of Oso while we were out. Would def recommend to a friend! Thanks so much💛”

“Asta is a very caring dog sitter, she cares very much for my dog, she very soft with the dogs a good person Asta I would recommend Asta as a dog sitter for anyone”

“Tamara was an absolute life saver, I booked here extremely last minute and she was accommodating and on time even though she was an entire 30 minute drive away! My boys loved the walk and her company. I highly recommend her.”

“Andrea is a true empath who connects with animals deeply. She is kind, prompt and goes above and beyond. I would choose Andrea again and again when it comes to caring for my pets. Having Andrea care for your animals is like hitting the jackpot!”

“Shiloh loves Natalie and took to her very quickly. By the second day, he was already waiting for her by the door for his walk! She's really good with him. I'd recommend Natalie to anyone looking for a trustworthy dog walker.”

“I have known Charlie for over 25 years. Both as a friend, and as a colleague through our respective law enforcement careers. He has watched our dogs on numerous occasions in our home, to include a hospice dog that has since passed. When traveling, I always have peace of mind that my dogs are safe, cared for, and most of all, loved. Dogs are his passion. Don’t overthink. Book with Charlie for all your house sitting and dog walking needs. You won’t be disappointed.”

“Jehan is an excellent candidate for Rover and is a responsible and loving pet caregiver. Jehan had cats and dogs growing up, and has always provided the highest standard of living for her four-legged friends. Additionally, Jehan has petsit for my family and I while we travel for the last 5 years. She is well-versed in animal care, is incredibly responsible, and follows directions with great attention to detail. I have no doubt that any pet owner could leave their beloved animal with Jehan and feel confident that they would be safe, loved, and carefully cared for. Jehan has my highest recommendation.”

“Kaia loves having Kristin walk her! My dog is around 65 lbs and can "take the lead" on walks sometimes, but Kristin does a great job handling her. Thank you for giving my girl love.”

“Elena is a lover of all living things, especially animals large and small. She also loves whales and all sea creatures. She grew up learning how to care for horses, dogs and cats. She grew up riding horses until our last horse passed away, who lived for 32 years and that speaks to the level of care they received. I rescued a Shih Tzu when she was just 6 years old and she loved Oreo until the day she passed at 20 years old. The level of care your furry loved ones would get from Elena is beyond any care anywhere. She loves animals and I would trust her to take care of any of my furry loved ones. She goes the extra mile and enjoys every minute. She is definitely an animal whisperer. Hire her…..you will be so glad you did!”

“Great, responsible walker😎”

“Thank you for having the best day with Nahla ✨✨”

About: I’ve been around animals since I was 6. I think all animals deserve love and care and now being a pet parent myself, I understand the time and energy that goes into taking care of them. Sometimes there isn’t enough time. And I’d like to help you with that. I work full time but have a couple days off that are open for walks and drop ins. And I will always make time when I can. Animals have routines just like us. And I do not want to deviate from a pet’s routine. So I will ensure that they are checked on and taken care of as if I am their own parent. I want them to feel loved and safe.

About: Hi!!! I'm Raquel and your pets' next BEST friend! & I love all animals although I'll admit to dogs being my favorite. I'm a recently retired Army veteran and looking for fulfilling ways to fill my new found excess time @). I grew up with dogs and have owned & sat several different breeds (ABPT, GSP, Huskies, Vizsla, Pomeranian, Lab, etc). I am adept at caring for senior pooches as well as tiny puppies. I do not currently own a pup but the photos are of my most recent puppers, Apollo, Duke & Dice, whom l've had to reluctantly re-home due to military commitments. I miss the companionship of an animal. The sight of an animal brings me INSTANTANEOUS joy. I enjoy caring for our furry friends whom we humans do not always deserve. I love to run and play with energetic dogs just as much as I love to cuddle with ones who prefer to lounge around. I live in Carmel Valley and revel at the opportunity to engage with the many different animals I encounter on my daily walks (pigs, wild turkey, horses, deer, neighborhood cats and dogs). I especially love bringing grapes to the three not so little pigs who live just down the road from me; I think they like me too would love the privilege of looking after your beloved animal family members while you travel knowing they're well cared for and showered with love and attention. I have tons of time on my hands. I am a recently retired veteran and currently not working and love spending time with animals. 😊 I will follow all of your instructions to a tee and go above and beyond to ensure the safety of your pet and care of your home.

“Julia quickly became an essential help for me to get my dog Rocky stimulation and exercise that allowed me to focus on the primary reason for my trip! She is knowledgeable of all of the dog fun-spots and very aware of safety of the pets she cares for. Julie communicated often and it felt like I was along for the fun. She sent pictures that quickly became favorites on Facebook and most of all, she developed a bond with Rocky where he loved every visit and I could tell she enjoyed Rocky as well! I highly recommend Julia for all your pet needs in the Carmel area!”

“Athena watched our dog Brad on several occasions when we went out of town. We came home to a happy dog and knew that he had been well cared for. We have left our dog with another person a couple of times and were nervous the whole time we were away. Athena sent us several photos and videos that made us feel like Brad was on vacation too! Athena is a caring person and a loving pet owner herself. I would highly recommend her for your pet needs.”

“Amy is truly exceptional. Her communication skills are top-notch, she's always punctual, very friendly and being around her naturally puts you at ease. I will be booking more dog walking sessions with her! My pup came back thoroughly exercised and in the best mood—tired yet content and mellow.”
