Dog Walking in Castro Valley

“My husband was gone on a business trip and I needed some help walking Kiki in the afternoons. I wanted someone experienced with pitties just in case some of her behaviors came out during the walk and Alex did great! She was always super excited to see him and we can’t wait to book him again :)”

“Erin was amazing with our dog! She was super responsive, caring, and treated our pup like her own. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for dog and couldn’t be more grateful. Highly recommend Erin to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving pet sitter!”

“Jackie and Jannalea were very sweet and patient with my dog Ponyo. Ponyo got her walks and they managed to take the same route that I usually do without my prompting! Got photos and updates each time so I knew what was going on. Wouldn't hesitate to book again!”

About: I treat every pet I care for like my own, because to me, pets are a true gift, full of intelligence and personality. I believe in using compassion and patience with every pet, taking the time to understand their breed and temperament so I can provide the best care possible. As an active person who loves hikes and walks, I enjoy getting pets outdoors and giving them plenty of exercise. I also personally bathe and groom my own dog and have experience caring for sick dogs, including post-surgery care, administering medication, and monitoring for any signs of concern. I've been a dog lover since I was a kid and have about 8 years of experience with owning and caring for dogs. I’m familiar with caring for and training puppies, including potty and crate training. Every pet deserves thoughtful, dedicated care, and that’s what I offer! I work remotely and have the flexibility to fit pet care into my daily and weekly routine with ease. Whether it's stopping by to take your pet on walks during your workday, offering boarding services in my home (which has a spacious yard for playtime), or providing quick drop-in visits to feed and relieve your pets in the comfort of their own home. I'm able to accommodate your needs. My schedule is adaptable, so I can ensure your pet gets the attention, exercise, and care they need when you're not around. When caring for pets in my home, I offer a safe, comfortable environment with a spacious, fenced yard for plenty of outdoor play and exercise. My quiet neighborhood, with low traffic, ensures a calm and peaceful atmosphere for pets to feel at ease. Plus, I’m within walking distance of three parks, including Lake Chabot Regional Park. For pet care in your home, I make sure to follow your pet’s usual routine and provide them with everything they need whether it’s feeding, potty breaks, or just some quality playtime. I always strive to make your pet feel comfortable and loved while you’re away, whether in my home or theirs.

“Brian is the most prompt and consistent dog watcher I have booked from Rover and I have used Rover for many years. I am so thankful for him and will definitely be booking again!”

“After my initial meeting with Ann-Marie I felt very secure with leaving Mia in her hands while I’m at work. Ann-Marie has been walking Mia during the week for a few months now and has proven to be very professional, consistent, responsible, and truly cares about Mia’s well being. I would 100% recommend her to for your pet care needs.”

“Great communication and reliable!”

About: I have always had a deep love for dogs, having been surrounded by them since childhood. My journey as a dog owner officially began four years ago after we bought our first house. Being committed to responsible pet ownership, we conducted thorough research before adopting our dog, and our learning curve continued to rise after bringing him home. This journey has not only enriched our lives but has also led us to form meaningful friendships with fellow pet lovers. Apart from caring for our own dog, we have had the pleasure of looking after the furry companions of our friends outside Rover. My biggest strengths lie my meticulous attention to detail and a profound sense of responsibility. I am fortunate to be a stay-at-home spouse. My daily routine involves caring for my plants and my beloved dog, activities that bring me immense joy and fulfillment. If you can tell me more about your furry child, such as what he/she is allergic to and what he/ she doesn’t like…This allows me to ensures that they feel comfortable and loved during my visit. I bring energy, love, and reliability right to your doorstep. Your furry family gets tail-wagging walks full of sniffs, exploration, and just the right amount of adventure for their personality. During drop-in visits, I'm the friend who brightens their day with belly rubs, playtime, fresh treats, and all the attention they crave. I don't just follow routines—I bring them to life! Whether it's that special walk route your dog adores or remembering exactly how your cat likes their afternoon snack served, I make every visit feel personal. Plus, your home stays secure with mail collected and a lived-in look that gives you peace of mind. Your pets stay happy in their favorite spot, while getting the exercise, companionship, and care that keeps their tails wagging until you return.

About: I have my own dogs and treat them like they’re my children. I go out on walks pretty often and workout outside with my dogs just to stick with them. I can work anytime and any day except Friday and Saturday nights due to my part time job but any other day during the week is great! I play with them a lot, give treats but not too much, I watch tv with my dog and they seem to enjoy it as much as me!

About: I had my own pet sitting business for many years, and have been taking care of dogs and cats my whole life. I also do volunteer dog walks at the animal shelter so I’m experienced with all types of dogs. My sweet baby angel dog of 13 years was special needs (cancer and diabetes) so I am very familiar with animals that require medical treatments and special needs. He recently passed so I’m looking for ways to be around dogs again. I love them all, all ages all sizes all shapes. Please let me meet them. I work from 5am-4pm Monday-Friday (every other Friday off), but I just moved to the area so I’m available pretty much whenever I’m not at work. I will take your pup out for a walk wherever you want, or come play with them and take care of them at your place. Will send lots of pictures.

About: I’ve had pets my entire life and for the past three years, I’ve started caring for others in addition to my own. I have experience caring for dogs and Cats of all different sizes and breeds. Any dog I’ve met I have loved like my own! Growing up, I had my German Shepherd, and two cats. From pet sitting, long or short walks, I’ve also administered medication to dogs of all ages and sizes. Our pups were rescued as well, with little training, so teaching them tricks was always a fun time! Thank You, From your animal caregiver. I’ve cared for puppies and for senior dogs with problems such as blindness and arthritis. I’m able to give them any medication required. And cats with catarects. I have a safe and large fenced in backyard. All dogs are separated at feeding times of 7am and 6pm, unless you feed more and have a slightly different schedule. I am used to serving regular dry, wet, mixtures, raw foods, and administering medications including injectables.

About: I have been an animal care giver for most of my life being raised in the hills with horses dogs chickens and cats lol. I know how hard it is to trust someone with your animal, I would give you the reassurance you deserve knowing your pet will be loved and cared for in the safest and most responsible way. I have been a pet lover/owner my whole life and a pet nanny for almost 14. I have flown animals to and from destinations and have house sit animals of all kinds. When it comes to knowing your pet will be safe/cared for with a genuine love/interest for animals, and over all knowledge of animal behavior and needs, I’m your girl! I am currently a flight attendant looking for part time work. I work out of San Francisco. I have a frenchie named Dio. Born and raised in the bay. My favorite animal are cows. My favorite amphibian are frogs. I most relate to a cat. 😂 The most important thing when caring for another persons pet is knowing their routine and keeping them active in what they enjoy so there is less time to miss or worry about mom or dad lol. When I am caring for another animal in someone else’s home I would stick to their schedules with meals walks and play time. My routine for my dog walks after breakfast and dinner and afternoons are usually for cuddling and snacking lol.

About: I am very friendly individual. I make sure the pet gets all the needed attention. I will make sure they are in safe and healthy environment with ample of waking and keeping them busy with their toys and playing with them. I just got laid off. I am a software test engineer. I love to hang out with the pet and make sure they gets needed attention for taking them to potty, feeding them and Ofcourse playing with them. I will take care of the pets as if they are in their own home. Provide with all the attention they need including walk, potty , feeding them and Ofcourse playing with them.

About: I have over 20 years of experience volunteering, fostering and homing dogs and cats. I have pet sat for people in the past, and dog walked. I currently work from home and are have fairly open schedule if needed. I also have weekends free so I am open 7 days a week for walks or board and care. I live in an one bedroom apartment in the back of my parents home and we have a friendly dog but he lives in the other house so can hang out there if needed. I have a backyard with a fence.

“Meeting Ann and Wen was the best lifesavers for Ciri and myself. I really appreciated the kindness that Ciri received. Ciri really look forward to her walks. We will miss you both. Thank you so much.”

About: Hi! I'm Eva, and I enjoy caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities. What sets me apart is my personalized approach—I take the time to understand each dog’s unique personality, routine, and specific needs to provide the best care possible. I respect and prioritize my clients' expectations, ensuring your dog's comfort and happiness are always my top priorities. I’m also very active, so whether your dog needs leisurely walks, multiple outings a day, or even runs to burn off energy, I’m happy to accommodate! Additionally, I have some flexibility in my work schedule, allowing me to adapt to your dog's routine and provide the care they need when they need it. My goal is to deliver attentive, loving care tailored to your dog's individual needs. Caring for your pet is an essential part of my routine, and I make it a priority to ensure each pet gets the care they need. I have the flexibility in my work to take on pets with varying needs, whether they are more independent or require extra attention and care in their routine. On a daily basis, I dedicate time for walks, feeding, and play, following any special instructions provided by pet parents. Weekly, I also set aside time for grooming or extra exercise as needed. Whatever the schedule is, I’m happy to accommodate and make it work to ensure your pet receives the best care possible! Your pet's safety and care is my number one priority. I pay close attention to them whether it's during walks or playtime or feeding time. I also take routine and instructions to the "T" - meaning if you are deliberate in your instructions on how to care for them, I will follow them accordingly. **I will send you photos/videos of your pet regularly!
