Dog Walking Carpinteria

About: I have experience working with cats, dogs, birds, horses, hamsters, etc. I have lived with 4+ pets my entire life & have had a few long-term house sitting gigs (5+ years). I feed, play, & walk all animals. I tidy up the house, bring in mail, water plants, and bring down trash cans. I am skilled at dealing with unruly animals, training young pets, dealing with pets off-leash at parks, beaches, and hikes. I have reliable transportation, and am able to take animals to local vets if needed. I am currently a part-time student & am searching for a part-time job. I have a very open schedule at the moment, and I am in SB almost everyday. I have 6 pets of my own that I will need to check in on once or twice a day, but I am able to be very dedicated to your pets and their needs. My home has two fenced in yards, I also live next to a park that is not super busy. I am able to let my own dogs off leash at said park! I live in a quiet neighborhood, on a cul-de-sac. There are a lot of neighborhood cats, and a few dogs. We do not get coyotes, or mountain lions, we do spot the occasional raccoon and opossum though!

About: We have both had dogs our entire lives and now have one pup of our own at home. We have been dog sitting for friends and on Rover for 7+ years and live an active lifestyle to keep all the dogs entertained and tired out. We dog sit all ages, breeds, and sizes and our dog is very friendly with other dogs. We are happy to provide walks, bathrooms breaks, runs, baths, and snuggles! We both currently work hybrid jobs with flexible schedules for walks, runs, and time on the beach. We are available to dog sit during the week or on weekends. Due to our hybrid schedule, we always arrange time at home accordingly for snuggles, treats, and walks/bathroom breaks. We live in a cozy 2-level condo with our own outdoor space as well as an upstairs balcony for the pups to lounge on. We are a 5 min walk to the beach and bring our own pup there almost daily. Our home is set up for dogs and we have extra beds, crates, bowls, and toys. We can feed at any designated times and provide lots of cuddles and walks throughout the day. We also have experience administering medication.

“Noah was super kind and very attentive. His communication skills were great and Moose got a good workout in for his first walk. I'll definitely be using him again.”

About: I’ve had animals in my life since I was born. I’ve had bunnies and cats and fish and dogs and birds. I’ve learned great ways to meet each of these animals with gentle and respectful care. I primarily work Monday-Wednesday 11am-8pm. I’m much more available in the evenings and weekends to take care of beloved pets. Pet walks would be most accessible on Thursdays-Sundays. I do not offer pet care in my home, I don’t have pets because I live in a very tiny apartment and know that’s not conducive for their wellbeing. In my client’s home, I show the utmost respect and care for their items, animal care needs and I triple check that I leave everything clean and locked.

About: Caring for animals & the homes they live in is something I take seriously. For more than five years, my family & I have cared for dogs of every age & personality, from energetic puppies to senior companions needing gentle, attentive care. I work primarily from home as a consultant, allowing me to spend much of the day with the pets in my care while maintaining their normal routines. I’m an early riser who values consistency, so feeding schedules, walks, medications, and daily rituals are followed carefully to help pets feel relaxed and secure. I understand that inviting someone into your home requires trust. I treat every home with the same care, discretion, and respect I would my own. My goal is for you to return to a peaceful home and a happy, well-cared-for pet, knowing everything was handled thoughtfully while you were away. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can travel with confidence.

About: My entire life I have been surrounded by the best furry family. We had well trained, obedient and incredibly kind dogs growing up. I wished upon a star at 10 years old and voila, I got my first golden retriever puppy as a present a few weeks later. Duke Skywalker was my first big responsibility, from working on potty training to letting him off leash on hikes and on the beach. He trusted me and I trusted him. During the pandemic, he was getting older and I did what I could to help him feel comfortable and loved. Even when he wasn’t able to walk, I’d place him in the back of the car and just sit with him watching the waves cuddled up with blankets. Must have patience with the older pups, and I loved every minute. I have trained my family’s adopted pups and they caught on fast. My roommate has a cat who I help care and train for when she is out of town for work, who knew training a cat actually works. Persistence, love and patience is key! I’m currently in between jobs, figuring out if I want a career switch. I have been wanting to surround myself with pets and helping anyone who needs it. I understand not having as much time as one would like, therefore happy to lend a hand in helping walk, feed, sit, even cuddle if your pet allows. I have a big space in my home and love to go outside and enjoy the fresh air, especially if it’s along the beach on a sunny day. In a client’s home, I would play with my new furry friend in the yard if they have or research nearby safe dog parks, or parks to walk with them to. And if the dogs or cats allow, always up for cuddles when sitting on the couch ‘Netflix & chilling’!

About: General Experience I’ve been around dogs, cats, and horses my whole life and I am competent with all general aspects of their care and willing to learn more. I love getting outside with dogs, whether that’s a beach day, a mountain hike, or a walk around the neighborhood. I’m also happy to help with baths and cleanup after our adventures! Whether your pet needs exercise, playtime, or simply some company while you’re away, I’m happy to meet them where they’re at. For the Cat owners: Happy to hang out with your cat and make sure they have a companion. Or if you’re someone with one of those cats that act more like a dog, we can go for a walk too! Training I’ve trained my own dog from puppyhood and helped friends with theirs. I’m not a professional trainer, but I’m happy to reinforce the routines and training you’re already working on. I’m newly active on Rover again and excited to meet new clients! I’m always happy to arrange a meet-and-greet beforehand. I am currently in between jobs and plan to take on a full or part time job in the new year. At this time I am incredibly flexible on scheduling. My apartment unfortunately does not allow for dogs but I would be able to come to you! I am extremely trustworthy and will respect your sacred space and privacy to the fullest. I will meet your pet where they are at and make sure they are comfortable. I am happy to clean up messes, and pretty much game for anything! I believe good communication leads to met expectations and I’m happy to work with you and your furry friend to find a good fit.

About: I have two pets of my own that I love and adore but looking for something to do part time. I’m available Saturday’s and Sunday’s and most weeknights. I currently do have a full time job with a flexible schedule. I’m open most of the day Saturday and Sunday! I can also do some evenings during the week. Caring for animals has always been a passion of mine. From dogs, cats to horses, I’ve spent my whole life around animals! I currently have two indoor dogs that I love dearly.

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and have always loved taking care of them. I have a dog of my own and have helped care for pets of all kinds, from neighborhood pups to family cats. I’ve participated in dog training classes, I’m certified in animal CPR, and I’m currently a pre-veterinarian major studying biology. So this isn’t just something I enjoy, I’m truly passionate about it. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and personalities, and I always try to make them feel safe, loved, and understood. Whether it’s a walk, a check-in, or just some company while you’re away, I’ll treat your pet like they’re my own! As a college student, I have a pretty flexible schedule. I have lots of time during the week and weekends to hang out with your pets. Walks, check-ins, playtime, I’d be so excited to do any of these with your furry friends. I love being outside and active, so spending time with animals is honestly the best part of my routine. I’m super mindful about keeping pets safe and comfortable, whether I’m in your home or out on a walk. I always follow care instructions closely, and I’m trained in animal CPR, so I’m prepared for emergencies (just in case!). I’ve also taken pet training classes, so I know how to read behavior and respond calmly if a pup gets nervous or overly excited. My goal is always to make your pet feel secure and happy, and to leave you feeling totally at ease, too.

About: I bring a mix of patience, playfulness, and big pet-loving energy. Whether we’re running around, snuggling, or exploring, your pet always gets attention that feels personal, fun, and full of care. Pet care fits naturally into my Wednesday-Sunday schedule. I plan my days around walks, playtime, feeding, and check-ins, making sure every pet gets unrushed, focused attention and fun I respect your home and your pet’s routine-clean bowls, secure doors, mindful of boundaries, and lots of attention. I treat your space and your pet with real care.

“Dario is the best. He has taught our dogs so much. Our dogs love him and we do too! We use Dario weekly to care for our fur babies! Thanks, Dario!”

About: We had two corgis who lived long full lives walking them out at River Park or around our old Lompoc neighborhood was always special. I believe in keeping dogs close and nurturing them with positive reinforcement. I am training for half marathons again. Our dogs were my best running buddies. I like having a pet temporarily. I work as a realtor so I am in charge of my schedule. Taking and sending photos of your dogs' stays in progress is fun. I am very responsible. Our girl corgi was a 5 week old puppy when we got her. After we adopted the boy at 2 years old he was a 4H dog that we trained and learned to train for showing. Taking care of my BFF's cat and dog while she traveled for five to seven days in a few occasions was a special experience. Providing hospitality to pets in their home is my pleasure. Looking forward to seeing you and meeting and spending time with your pet Currently the only scheduled obligation I have is an environmental horticulture class at sbcc on Thursdays ends 05/25. Taking golf this summer. Looking forward to meeting new dogs in their homes. Taking care of dogs in their own home is a seamless way for your dog to feel secure and well taken care of with minimal changes for your dog to adjust to.

“Very nice with the doggos.. She is reliable, kind and a great communicator!”

About: I grew up with pets of all kinds in my house. We currently have 3 dogs and 1 cat, and my step dad is a dog trainer so I have a bit of knowledge regarding that subject as well. I am experienced in walking, bath, and play time with all sorts of animals, not just cats and dogs. I have experience with horses, tortoises, rabbits, hamsters, guinea pigs etc. Starting in January 2026 I will be a student at Cal Poly majoring in chemistry! I have class for 4 hours Monday-Wednesday and Friday. I teach dance classes for 1-3 hours Tuesday-Wednesday evenings. My weekends are completely available! I am firm in my idea that animals need lots of attention, exercise and play time. I will listen to what your pet tells me they need whether it’s a cuddle, a walk, or a potty break!

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover who believes every dog deserves daily exercise, fresh air, and plenty of attention. As a remote worker who enjoys daily walks, I have a flexible schedule and would love to help keep your pup happy, active, and cared for. I had a German Shepherd–Husky mix who lived a healthy, happy 14 years, and I was hands-on with his meals, medications, and daily care. I’m also a proud cat mom to three rescues—two Siamese and a Ragdoll—who have made my home their own. Your pet’s comfort, happiness, and well-being will always be my priority! I work from home as a technical marketing writer for a hardware company, and my schedule is fairly flexible, with most of my meetings in the mornings EST. I’d love to make the most of my daily walks by spending that time with fur babies. Although I cannot care for other's pets in my own home as I have 3 cats (one of which is perpetually spicy) I am happy to travel to the owner's home to do check ins, play fetch, walks, etc. as needed.

About: I've always had animals and love them all. I've cared for dogs, cats, birds, fish, small animals, reptiles, and horses. My passions are rescue and bringing out the best in the scared and anxious pets I deal with in shelter and hospital. My life revolves around pet care, both mine and yours. My biggest passion is helping out with shelters and rescues locally, and across the country virtually. I have 1 friendly small dog and 3 cats. My home is their sanctuary. We do frequent walks and trips to trails and beaches. I prefer to let the furbabies snuggle with us, but I have crates up to XL available if needed.

About: I’ve taken care and house trained dogs for over 15 years. Friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets. Fur babies thrive on routine and respond to a set schedule for feeding, walking, playtime, and bedtime. I’m currently working part time and I’m able to schedule myself my own hours. So I’ll have plenty of time to play and dedicate myself to your pups. I provide care in your home, secure yard, or neighborhood as that’s where your pet is most familiar / comfortable. I ask you to please let me know if they have any special needs, if there are other local pets or people they do or do not get along with.

About: I have always loved being around animals and have experience caring for dogs and cats. I’m skilled at providing daily walks, feeding, playtime, and general companionship. Whether your pet needs extra snuggles or a high-energy play session, I’m here to ensure they feel loved and well cared for. I can visit 2-3 times a day to feed, walk, or check in on your pet, ensuring they’re happy and cared for while you're away. I’m flexible with my schedule and can accommodate morning, midday, and evening visits to fit your pet’s specific needs. Whether it’s overnight, daily care or occasional check-ins, I’m here to help! I prioritize creating a safe and stress-free environment for every pet. In your home, I make sure to follow your instructions carefully, whether it’s feeding, walking, or playtime routines. I ensure your pet stays safe by using secure leashes for walks, monitoring their behavior, and avoiding risky situations.
