Dog Walking Christie

“We have a newborn, so it's a huge relief to have Deborah walk our dog every morning. Our dog Lucie waits for her by the window and is always so excited to see her. That tells me she treats the doggies well and develops a good bond with them! Deborah is communicative and easy to work with. Highly recommend!”

“Merlette was so patient with our dog who was a little shy on the first visit. She’s also a great communicator and made the whole process easy. So relieved to have found someone who can walk our dog.”

“Quincy is super high energy but Annie does a great job getting out the puppy energy. We are both delighted with her. She's always on time and takes good care of Q.”

About: I truly love cats and have two of my own. One, Tiga, was rescued from my yard, and the other, Truffle, was adopted from a shelter. I also have plenty of experience caring for cats of different ages and personalities. I’ve cared for cats that need medication as well. I’m patient and responsible, and I always make sure cats feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. My schedule is fairly flexible, so I can usually fit cat visits into my daily routine. I mainly offer drop-in visits and boarding for cats. I can help with feeding, refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes, giving medication if needed, and providing attention and playtime based on each cat’s personality and routine. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize safety, cleanliness, and respect for their space. I carefully follow all instructions, ensure pets are well fed and comfortable, and keep the home tidy. I understand that many cats can be shy, so I take a gentle, patient approach and let them warm up to me at their own pace. I also provide regular updates so owners feel at ease while they are away.

“Sophia did a great job getting Winnie out of her shell and on a good walk while I was at work. I will definitely keep her in mind the next time I need someone to walk her”

“Cody & I did a meet & greet with Victoria. He was happy to meet her. He has a lot of puppy energy but she understood that. Hope we can have a few regular walks in the future.”

About: I’ve taken care of my puppy and have experienced training him since he was 8 weeks old and now he’s over 2 years old and very energetic and playful. I’ve also taken care of my cat and experienced administering medications through injection and orally when he got really sick. He’s now 5 years old and thriving. I work from home 3 times a week so I have flexibility and on the days I’m in office, I can still make time early morning or evening. We live in a single family home and have dog gates to separate cats and dogs as needed to give them safe spaces. We also have a fenced backyard so doggies can run and play catch.

“Michael was excellent in all respects! Great communication, always arrived as scheduled, dried pup off and cleaned paws at drop-off. Couldn’t have asked for more!”

About: Currently taking reservation for November and December!! Christmas sitting still available on calendar :) Hello! My name is Hosana and I am currently an undergraduate college student at UCSD. I have loved animals for as long as I could remember! Growing up in a smaller home, I was never able to own a dog of my own, but being obsessed with animals, I wouldn't let this stop me from being around them an gaining as much experience as I could by taking care of pets for friends and family throughout my life. Eventually I started working at a local doggy daycare/ pet boarding facility in Walnut Creek known as, North Main Pet Lodge. I have about a year's worth of experience working professionally with a multitude of different dog breeds and taking care of their daily needs. I've worked with both dogs and cats, and other small animals such as hamsters, rabbits, and such and know how to administer medication, bathe, feed, and do other tasks related to pet care. Staying flexible and knowing how to deal with all sorts of situations is something I have come to be very acquainted with through my work experience. Communication is of big importance to me and making sure all pet parents stay informed throughout their stay away from their pets. Currently I am working on my finishing my degree online and no longer need to attend classes on campus. Therefore I will be in the bay area permanently and am looking to work with those who need the occasional sitter. Have been actively sitting for my clients since 2025. Please feel free to contact me and help this college student out with your business, as I also look forward to spending time with your pets! Thanks for reading :) Currently taking online classes. Would be ideal for pet parents who want someone to be at the house often for daily routine, but also able to step away for up to 4 hrs at a time few days of the weekdays (usually Mon, Fri). Weekends I am almost always available all day. Almost always at home for morning, afternoon potty breaks, evening, overnight. When in a client's home, the pet's safety and health are my number one concern. With my experience, I have learned several tricks that help with a variety of temperaments and personalities that each dog has. I also believe in being respectful of my client's homes and will take that very seriously. Overall, any specific concerns or lists can be communicated to me and I will make sure to keep an open line of communication.

About: I'm super reliable, very patient and attentive when left in care of your fur babies I like to chill and lounge on the couch with them or go on long walks or spend time at the park P.s will follow special instructions if there is any needed to follow :)) For days that I have available for pet sittings I like to know if they will have a schedule to follow or not so I usually go by that but I have most days off with just gardening to do or stuff to do around the house/lounging or hiking/ running errands. I make sure to keep any toys, food or medication nearby. I’m comfortable caring for pets that may need more attention than others or that may be more independent.

“Danielle is awesome! I’ve hired a lot of dog walkers and she always ends up walking my dog the furthest and getting him the most exercise.”

About: Hi! My name is Vivi and I love dogs. (Actually, I love all animals!) I grew up with family dogs and adopted my own last year (she's a complete sweetie). I also have a cat, a bearded dragon, and fish. I worked in a local dog daycare and hotel for over three years and loved it! Now that I'm in a graduate program, I couldn't keep up the hours but missed the dogs. My favorite part of that job was walking the dogs and now I'd love to walk your dog. I really enjoy connecting with each dog, getting to know their personalities, taking care of them, and giving them the attention, stimulation, and fun that comes from being together and enjoying the day. I am currently working on my clinical hours for my degree and am busy Monday and Wednesday after noons 1-5pm and Thursdays at the same time and at 7am-10am every other week. Any other time is all good for me! When I take care of a pet, I care for them in any ways that they might need. I have had experiences with reactive dogs, dogs with specific medical needs, young dogs who are practicing training still, and senior dogs. I want to do what is most comfortable for the dog and am super happy to accommodate for any needs that they have when caring for them! I have experience reading and reacting to cat and dog body language and know when my presence is invited by them and when they might need more space. It's important to look for the animals consent and comfort when working with and taking care of them so they can remain as happy and stress free as possible!

About: I have been in the animal world since 2017 with my first job being at an animal shelter. In 2024 I graduated from a university to earn my bachelor's degree in canine science to further my knowledge and skill. I absolutely love dogs and all animals; I treat them with the same respect I would another person. I specialize in reward based training (positive reinforcement), dog body language, and behavior. Dog training should be fun for you and the dog. Positive reinforcement is the best way to train because it helps build better bonds between the pet parent and the dog, as well as teach important behaviors and discourage and substitute unwanted behaviors. In my care, your dog(s) will be treated as a part of the family. My main goal is to keep your pup(s) happy, calm, exercised; this should feel like their home away from home. I currently am working home full time for the business, from dog training to grooming to walking to daycare & boarding, we are here for you! There will always be someone here to keep an eye on your pup(s), when I leave my partner is here to help out. We are open everyday. The pups are always treated like my own. When staying over, they keep company with me and my dogs. We are always watching the dogs and making sure they are safe and comfortable. If I am going to your place I will always treat your place with respect.

About: I’m patient and compassionate with older pets, and I’m comfortable with administering medications, helping with mobility, and understanding the signs of discomfort or stress. I’ve worked with everything from high energy puppies learning the ropes to senior dogs who need gentle care, medication, and a slower pace. Pet care is a natural part of my daily and weekly routine especially with pets of my own. It’s not just a job, it’s something I genuinely enjoy and prioritize. I plan my schedule around the needs of the pets I care for, making sure they receive consistent attention, feeding, playtime, walks, and any special care they require. Whether it's early morning feedings, midday walks, or evening cuddle sessions, I build my day to align with each pet's routine as closely as possible. When caring for pets in their own home, I follow your instructions carefully to stick to your pet’s normal routine. I make sure they’re fed on schedule, get the right amount of exercise, and have clean water and a tidy space. I also take time for play, affection, or just quiet companionship! Whatever your pet is most comfortable with. I’m respectful of your home, keep everything clean and organized, and always provide updates so you know your pet is doing great while you’re away.

“Carly did a great job walking Cooper. I will user her in the future after Cooper and I get back in town. Cooper learned to be much more comfortable during his walks with Carly. She made a slightly nervous dog feel much more at ease. We highly recommend Carly.”

About: Hi my name is Nneka and I happen to love dogs very much and I will be happy to keep an eye on and/or walk him/her anytime. I currently work nights from 5pm-2:30am. So I am available in the daytime to be there for your pet! I will care for your pet as my own and I will do well to make sure that your dog is being well taken care of. I have taken care of my sister’s, my aunties and many of my friend’s dogs before so I have a bit of experience. I also have a dog who is currently with my mom. I would love to meet you and your dog and give them the best experience. Thank you! Since I work at nights, caring for your pet will fill a lot of my mornings up. Whether it’s exercising with your pet or checking in with them, my mornings will be filled with joy. How I will care for your pets, whether it is walking them or going to your place for a check in, is make sure their needs are taken care of. I will not put them in harms way nor will I do anything to jeopardize their safety.

About: I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities for 15 years. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, play with, and care for their pets while away. I’m patient, attentive, active, and genuinely love animals. I understand the importance of making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I love taking dogs on hikes and to the beach as well. I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to your pets. I’m available for dog walking, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the week and on weekends. I enjoy staying active, spending time outdoors, and making sure pets get the care, attention, exercise, and companionship they need to feel happy and comfortable. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I provide a calm, loving, and attentive environment and always follow the owner’s instructions carefully regarding feeding, routines, medications, walks, and special care needs. I pay close attention to pets’ behavior and body language to ensure they feel safe, secure, and well cared for at all times.
