Dog Walking Chorro

About: My family has our own dog Wilbur (see profile pic) who I love to take on walks and runs! I also like to play with him! One of his favorite games is tug of war. I’m a student on at Cal Poly SLO. I’m in class Monday-Thursday, with no classes on Fridays. I’m available in the morning and afternoon throughout the week. I’m willing to work with you so we can find the time that works best for both of us! I will make sure your dog is hydrated by offering water during walks. I also like to give Wilbur a treat at the end of our walks, and I’ll do the same for your dog if you like! When checking up on your dog, I will make sure they have enough food, water, and attention.

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with personal experience caring for both dogs and cats. My dog, Malibu, was part of my family for 16 years. She lived with my parents for the first nine years of her life, and I cared for her personally during her final seven years. She even became a world traveler with her own pet passport. Caring for Malibu through her senior years taught me patience, consistency, and how important it is to adjust care as a pet’s needs change. For the past two years, I have also helped care for a cat named Sami. That experience has taught me how to build trust with cats, respect their boundaries, and pay close attention to their routines and behavior. I’m dependable, organized, patient, and respectful of other people’s homes. I carefully follow feeding schedules, walking routines, litter-box instructions, and any special requests. I also provide regular updates and photos so pet parents can feel confident that their pets are safe, comfortable, and receiving plenty of attention while they are away. I work remotely Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., which allows me to be home with your pet throughout the day. I can provide regular potty breaks, walks, meals, playtime, companionship, and supervision while still maintaining their normal routine. Because I’m home during the workday, your pet will not be left alone for long periods. I’m also available for overnight care, evenings, and weekends, depending on my schedule. I live in a quiet neighborhood with several safe and enjoyable walking routes nearby. My two-bedroom apartment provides a calm, comfortable environment, and I have a fenced back patio that is perfect for supervised sunbathing, fresh air, and naps. My home also has air conditioning to keep pets comfortable during warmer weather, and there are multiple parks less than five minutes away for walks and outdoor time. I carefully follow each pet parent’s instructions, including feeding schedules, walk routines, medication directions, household rules, and any special care needs. Whether I’m caring for a pet in my home or theirs, I prioritize safety, consistency, cleanliness, and regular communication. I also provide updates and photos so pet parents can feel confident that their pet is comfortable and well cared for.

About: I’m an Animal Science student with 8 years of experience caring for and working with animals. I have experience with dogs of different sizes, breeds, energy levels, and personalities. I’m comfortable handling active dogs and making sure each walk is safe, fun, and suited to your dog’s individual needs. I’m dependable, attentive, and happy to provide updates and photos after walks. I’m currently a 3rd-year Animal Science student and have plenty of availability in the afternoons and evenings around my class schedule. Dog walking fits perfectly into my routine, and I love spending my free time outside and staying active. My schedule varies slightly by day, but I’m happy to work with owners to find consistent walking times. I have experience working with dogs of all sizes and personalities and can easily adjust each walk to your dog’s needs and comfort level. I pay close attention to my surroundings, your dog’s behavior, and any instructions you provide. I prioritize safe leash handling and will always treat your dog with patience and care.

About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all ages and personalities since I was young, from energetic puppies to senior pets needing extra attention. As an Animal Science major on the pre-veterinary track at Cal Poly, I have a strong understanding of animal behavior, health, and proper handling. Additionally I have worked in a Veterinary clinic for a while. This background helps me recognize subtle signs of stress or discomfort and respond with calm, informed care. I treat every pet like my own—patiently, gently, and with genuine love. Whether it’s walking, feeding, bathing, or playtime, I always prioritize safety, comfort, and happiness. Pet care fits perfectly into my weekly routine! As an Animal Science student, I make time every day to care for and spend time with animals—it’s one of the best parts of my week. I’m available for walks and drop-in visits on weekdays, and for longer stays on weekends. Spending time with pets helps me unwind and apply what I’ve learned in my animal behavior and care courses to real-life situations. When caring for pets, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. In a client’s home, I respect their space and routines—keeping pets on their usual schedule for feeding, walks, and play. With my background in Animal Science, I pay close attention to body language and behavior, making sure each pet feels calm and cared for throughout my visits.

“JOSH was great to work with. He was very prompt and also very flexible if a time needed to change on occasion. He and my dog, Shiloh, seem to bond quite well over the weeks that I needed JOSH‘s walking services. I highly recommend JOSH for taking care of your pet, without reservation.”

I love to play with and walk dogs at their own pace and preference, and am happy to help support and reinforce your training plans and pet rules. I have been an elementary teacher for just over a decade and am taking some time off, so my schedule is very flexible, and I would love to fill it with helping care for dogs in our community! I know it can be hard to leave pets at home for work or social events, but rest assured that with me your pet is in loving and safe hands so you can work, play, and enjoy life without worrying about your furry friend. After teaching for over a decade, I am taking some time off and would love to fill it with caring for pets to help others in my community! I have a very flexible schedule and am available to visit, walk, and care for pets on weekdays between 8 and 6. I can also be available on weekends with prior arrangement. I grew up with dogs and pet-sit often for my friends and family. I have a fenced-in yard and live in a quiet, very walkable neighborhood. I am also a close driving distance to many parks, including the Laguna Lake dog park. I am happy to drive within the Central Coast area to visit, play with, and walk your beloved pup as well!

About: Growing up I have always been surrounded by and taken care of animals, including my own dogs. I have pet sit for the past couple years over the summer for various families, so I have years of experience under my belt.

I am a current college student at Cal Poly, so I am free typically after my morning classes, in the afternoons and evenings as well as weekends. I will always make sure your dogs get the best care they can in your home and will take care of them to the best of my ability.

About: I have two dogs at home and have had a lot of experience dog and cat starting in elementary school and every year since then! I’m a college student so my schedule is a bit all over the place.

About: I have worked with neighbors pets since I was in high school, haves pets of my own since I was born and am currently a hospice volunteer. My schedule is very open as I am a fourth year student at cal poly that doesn’t have many classes left to take. I also wake up usually pretty early if needed to feed pets early in morning. I like to make sure that in my house the environment is set up especially for a puppy for instance that it can’t go out running in the street and using positive reinforcement to help train the puppy to make the experience safer while walking the dog.

About: I grew up on a small farm with dogs, cats, chickens, ducks, and goats, so I've got a lifetime of experience with all kinds of furry friends. Professionally, I've worked at a couple different dog boarding/daycare/training places before switching to a job that was more fitting to what I went to school for. I’m comfortable with various types of pets in terms of breed, age, temperament, and lifestyle (up-keeping training, giving meds, disabilities, etc). I'm currently working full time but am free most mornings in the week for walks or playtime. I'm free most weekends for overnight pet sitting and am open to extended at homesitting as well.
