Dog Walking Chabot Park

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for both cats and dogs. I have several cats of my own, and I’ve even trained one of them to shake hands, roll over, spin, and play dead—yes, really! I believe that building trust is one of the most important parts of caring for animals, and I always use calm, patient, and positive interactions. Over the past few years, I’ve also helped care for a senior Golden Retriever and friends’ cats, so I’m comfortable with pets of different ages, personalities, and energy levels. Whether your pet is playful and curious, shy and cautious, or just wants a quiet companion, I’ll meet them where they are and treat them like part of the family. I currently offer cat boarding, small dog boarding, drop-in visits, and dog walking. I also welcome small dogs who are comfortable and friendly around cats. Since cats are part of our everyday household, I want to make sure boarding is safe and enjoyable for both your dog and my resident pets. Small dogs will be treated as part of the family and will have plenty of attention, playtime, and companionship during their stay. For boarding, I live in a spacious 3-bedroom house with my 7 friendly and social cats. My cats are used to living in a multi-cat household and enjoy having companions around. Boarding cats will be able to live, relax, sleep, and play alongside my cats as part of the household rather than spending their stay confined to a separate room. Photos Guaranteed! I love capturing special moments and will always send lots of pictures during each visit so you feel connected and reassured while you're away. If you’re looking for someone responsible, patient, and genuinely excited to spend time with your pet, I’d love to help. Feel free to reach out—I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member! My schedule is currently very flexible, so pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I’m home for much of the day and can easily adjust my schedule around feeding times, walks, playtime, litter box cleaning, medications, or any other special needs your pet may have. For boarding pets, this also means they won’t be left alone for long periods of time. I’m able to spend plenty of time with them throughout the day, whether they want to play, explore the house, relax with the other pets, or simply have some quiet company. Because my schedule is flexible throughout the week, I’m also able to accommodate different routines and provide care that stays as close as possible to what your pet is used to at home. I will hold the leash tight if we meet any dogs or human on the way, if your dog is too excited I will use my body to block the sight.

“Daria is an exceptional pet sitter who has a remarkable ability to connect with our pups. Her patience, love, and compassion are evident in her interactions with them. She has a keen understanding of our dogs’ unique training styles, and they readily follow her lead. I highly recommend Daria for any pet care needs.”

“Natalia was very patient with our border collie who can pull a lot during walks and is over all too energetic most of the time. Her walks really helped Millie be happier during the day before we came hom!”

About: I've been pet sitting/babysitting/house sitting since I was young. I am very reliable and have no problem communicating any problems that arise or questions I may have. I have experience in family/house management as well. Let me know if you have any questions! I look forward to hearing from you! My fiancee and I just moved to the area, so I have lots of free time and availability to give each pet the time they deserve. I am extremely reliable and am willing to work with any schedule and around when you would prefer your pets have attention and their needs taken care of. I understand how important pets are in someone's life and it's a serious responsibility.

About: Every dog is treated like part of our family. Unlike many sitters, we board only one family’s dog(s) at a time, so your pet receives our full attention in a calm, low-stress home environment. Because I’m home most of the day, your dog will enjoy plenty of companionship and won’t be left alone for long periods. We welcome dogs of all breeds and sizes and have experience caring for puppies, senior dogs, and dogs that require daily medications. We’ll keep your dog’s routine as close to home as possible—from feeding and walks to playtime, potty breaks, and medications—so you can travel with complete peace of mind. Throughout your dog’s stay, you’ll receive plenty of photo and video updates, so you’ll always know they’re happy, safe, and having a great time with us. I’m a stay-at-home mom with a 12-year old daughter and a 3-year-old son. Our family recently said goodbye to our beloved dog after 14 wonderful years, so I understand that pets are truly family. Because I’m home most of the day, your dog will receive plenty of attention, companionship, and care. We board only one family’s dog(s) at a time, creating a calm, low-stress environment where your pet can feel safe and comfortable. Our fully fenced yard provides a secure place to play, and I’ll follow your dog’s normal routine—including walks, feeding schedules, medications if needed, and plenty of love—so they feel right at home while you’re away. We’re a dog-friendly family with a secure, fenced backyard where your pup can play, relax, and enjoy plenty of fresh air. With your permission, dogs are welcome on the couch and are treated like part of our family during their stay. My children love animals, so for everyone’s safety, all dogs must be friendly and comfortable around kids, with no history of aggression toward children. We board only one family’s dog(s) at a time, providing a calm, low-stress environment with plenty of individual attention. I provide daily neighborhood walks based on your dog’s routine and needs. Longer walks or hikes are also available for an additional fee. Throughout your dog’s stay, I’ll send regular photo and video updates so you can relax knowing your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for.

“Lily is great! Kome really likes his time and walks with her.”

“Thank God for Marlene! My last minute work trips she always books comes through works it into her schedule. She is the best with my super hyper Belgium malinois puppy. She always provides a pic she even will do clean up service for your puppy and give them water. She's just a solid dog walker!”

About: I’ve spent three years caring for dogs through walking and sitting, providing safe, loving, reliable support tailored to each pup’s personality, routine, and comfort needs. With lots of free time in my daily routine, I’m able to focus fully on each dog I care for, providing steady attention, enrichment, and a peaceful, supervised environment. I provide a safe, reliable home where dogs can relax and feel supported. With frequent potty breaks, daily walks, and attentive supervision, your pup stays comfortable, happy, and well‑monitored.

“Thank you so much for great service. She worked with my dog so well and had great energy. Would definitely recommend and will be using again.”

About: My husband & I have been dog parents for nearly 20 years, caring for our 1st furbaby Gelato for almost 14 years (he passed 3 years ago :( ) and currently caring for his sister from another mister Nutella for the past 5 :). We know how much trust it takes to leave your pup with someone else because they’re truly part of the family. We provide a calm, loving home environment with plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and cuddles. We’re happy to follow your dog’s normal routine and accommodate feeding schedules, medications, and special instructions. We can only care for a small number of dogs at a time so every pup gets plenty of individual attention. We do have a dog at home so we will only be accepting dog-friendly dogs. My husband & I will be watching your pup! I work twice a week in the office but my husband will be home full time. We are available during the weekend full time based on our availability. We have a fence front and back yard. As long as your dog isn’t prone to jumping fences we can leave them in the front yard for some outside play time. If not, we have a backyard with a doggy door where they can go in and out all day. Backyard is fully secured.

“Sarah is a dog lover and super easy to work with. Thank you Sarah! I will definitely rebook when I need help again.”

About: Animals have been one of my biggest passions for as long as I can remember. Growing up with cats and dogs as beloved members of my family taught me early on how much trust and responsibility comes with caring for an animal. Over the past few years, I’ve also gained experience with cat sitting, dog sitting, house sitting, and volunteering at horse ranches and stables, where I’ve cared for and spent time around horses, goats, and other animals. My goal is to eventually have a career working with animals and, one day, own a homestead of my own. I genuinely love getting to know each animal’s personality and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their person is away. Trust and integrity are extremely important to me. I understand that leaving your pets and home in someone else’s care is a huge responsibility, and I take that responsibility seriously. I will always respect your instructions, your home, and your pet’s individual needs. My priority is making sure you can feel confident and at ease while you’re away. I’m happy to accommodate different routines, feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication instructions, crate routines, indoor/outdoor schedules, training expectations, disabilities, and other individual needs. I will follow your instructions carefully rather than assuming every animal should be cared for the same way. I’m also comfortable providing pets with calm companionship. Whether your pet wants lots of playtime and attention, a long walk, or simply someone nearby while they relax, I’m happy to meet them where they are. I want every animal I care for to feel safe, respected, and loved. I currently have a flexible schedule while attending school, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time to pet care. I also have a professional background as a Medical Assistant and am about to begin studying to become an EMT, so I’m accustomed to being responsible, attentive, following instructions carefully, and staying calm when something unexpected happens. I’m currently a student and also work remotely, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to pet sitting. I’m able to build pet care into my daily routine and can accommodate a variety of schedules and care needs. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, so I’m happy to dedicate my time to making sure your pets receive plenty of attention, companionship, and care while you’re away. I take the safety and wellbeing of every pet in my care very seriously. I will always follow the owner’s instructions and respect each pet’s individual routine, needs, and boundaries. Whether your pet has specific feeding instructions, medication, training requirements, disabilities, crate routines, or indoor/outdoor schedules, I will make sure those instructions are followed carefully. I believe pets thrive in a calm and comfortable environment, so I’m happy to provide companionship while also respecting their space and personality. I’m comfortable working remotely while pet sitting, which allows me to be present and available while maintaining a calm environment for your furbaby. I will always make sure they have access to food and fresh water according to their normal routine, unless instructed otherwise by their owner. I also understand that caring for someone’s pet means caring for their home and belongings as well. I am a respectful, responsible, and attentive person, and I want every owner to feel confident that their pets and home are in good hands.

About: I love playing with dogs! They are so fun to play with. Of course, I do make sure they are well fed and that they’ve gone on their walks. I like to make sure their feeding area is clean so that they don’t pick any germs or parasites and get sick. If they have medication to take, I will happily give it to them without any fear of them potentially biting me or being a bit aggressive. I am free at various times. I do attend university, so I may be unavailable at certain times. However, I am happy to work with you and your pet at whatever time is best. I like to ask questions regarding their pets routine, conditions, etc. It helps me get to know more about the owner as well as their companion. I will always make sure their pet feels safe and that they can trust me. I like to greet myself with pets by holding my hand out for them to smell so that I can pet them with their permission.

“Dora was wonderful to work with! She took great care of my dog Sassy, feeding her dinner and taking her for a walk on the days I needed to work late. She was very responsive to my messages and sent pictures of the walks. I would highly recommend her to care for your pet. Thanks Dora!”

“Rosa was great! Good communication. Took Clarence on a walk and he had a nice time”

About: Hi Friends! Auntie Lisa here, I have been taking care of animals for 16+ years. I run a local 501(c)3 Non Profit and I am an avid animal lover and advocate. I will always put your pets needs first and make sure that they are healthy and happy until you return. I have excellent client and rescue references if you'd like to speak with anyone I've helped in the past! I am very flexible and can accommodate most schedules with ease. I have a dog walking group from 11a.m -1p.m. Monday-Friday. The rest of the time I'm available. I have a house with a yard . The doggies have their own room with a couch and a loveseat and lots of doggy beds and soft blankets. I often fall asleep right in the middle of them :) . They have plenty of toys and love when they stay at Aunt Lisa's!

About: Hello! My name is Tabatha and I've taken care of dogs for the past 10 years outside of having dogs myself for my whole life. I’ve used Rover for my dog too, so I understand the level of care pet parents look for! I also foster dogs from local shelters from time to time so I’m used to working with all kinds of pups. I recently started working from home more so I have more availability to hang with your pup. :) I currently work from home on the days I’m available & love to take the dogs out for a romp in the yard or walks in the neighborhood. There’s a doggy door to my fenced backyard so they can also come & go as they please. :) I have a fenced in yard and am familiar with walks and parks in my area. I also love playing and engaging pets with toys and training.
