Dog Walkers in Dougherty, CA

“I recently had Slava and Sanjana walk my dog for the first time and it was a great experience. They were incredibly attentive, asked thoughtful questions to understand my dog’s needs and personality, and made the walk a true pleasure. Now, we’ve set up a weekly schedule with them, and I’m looking forward to many more positive walks ahead!”

“We wanted to thank Mitchell for taking care of our boys. Mitchell was very accommodating to our change of plans and the boys were very happy to see him and go for their walks. Thank you so much!!!”

“Great dog walker. Milo loved going for the walks with Zcarina. She always on time to walk Milo. She sent pictures and told us how he was every time she walked him. We will definitely use her again.”

About: I have grown up surrounded by pets of all kinds. Our family loves animals. We took care of our senior dog of 16 years and have experience with the special needs of a senior pet. We now have a sweet Shih Tzu and a 2 year old cat. We are comfortable with dogs of all ages and will provide special care for your pet as needed. We are working from home on a regular basis so there will always be someone with your pet to look after and care for them. We love going on walks with our fur baby and taking him to the park to play with his doggie friends I have a fenced in backyard and plenty of place to play. Our Shih Tzu loves having other dogs over and will give your dog company. Our cat has grown up with our dog and likes and gets along well with other dogs

About: I have taken care of animals my whole life, specifically cats. I love working with animals and used to volunteer at Valley Humane Society! I also worked at the SD Zoo Safari Park for a few months before having to leave to focus on school. I just graduated from college and have the summer free! I’m pretty flexible but really prefer notice. I will always try my best to accommodate your needs! I cannot bring animals to stay in my home, but I will take the best care of your pet! I always prioritize safety whether it’s closing gates or keeping animals separate from others

“Jenarae took care of our dog Ruby for 8 days and did an amazing job! Ruby was well taken care of and given lots of love (our cat Meg and our many fish were also given lots of attention and care). I received information each day about how Ruby was and what she was up to as well as lots of great pictures of her in action. I would highly recommend Jenarae for all your pet sitting needs.”

About: As a devoted pet owner and active foster volunteer, caring for animals is a huge part of my daily life. I currently care for my own dog, two male cats and regularly foster kittens, giving me hands-on experience with pets of different ages, personalities, and needs. I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply sticking to their normal routine, I'll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you're away. I have experience caring for puppies, adult dogs, senior pets, and young kittens. I'm attentive to details, reliable, and committed to providing regular updates, photos, and communication so you can have peace of mind during your time away. I treat every pet like they're part of my own family and look forward to meeting you and your furry friends! Pets are a big part of my daily routine. I start each day by feeding my resident dog and foster kittens, cleaning litter boxes, refreshing water bowls, and making sure everyone gets the attention they need. Throughout the day, I incorporate walks, playtime, enrichment activities, and plenty of affection into my schedule. Because I foster kittens, I'm experienced in maintaining consistent feeding schedules, monitoring behavior and health, and creating a safe, comfortable environment for animals of all ages. Caring for pets isn't something I fit into my routine—it's already a regular part of my life and something I genuinely enjoy every day. When caring for pets, my goal is to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. For house sitting and drop-in visits, I follow each pet's feeding schedule, exercise needs, medication instructions (if applicable), and any other care preferences provided by the owner. I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, playtime, enrichment, and affection while their family is away. During dog walks, I prioritize safety and tailor the walk to the dog's energy level and needs. For drop-in visits, I ensure pets have fresh water, are fed, have potty breaks, and get quality one-on-one interaction. As a pet owner and foster volunteer, I understand the importance of trust and communication. I provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident that their pets are happy, safe, and well cared for.

About: I have always been in the childcare and education field, and the last few years has brought me to the world of dog sitting! Dogs tend to become very comfortable with me right away! I wake up early for walks, and your pup will receive about 3 per day, including lots of ball and toy tosses and tons of love and attention! I live in a condo with a spacious living room for plenty of play and to keep crates and beds. Walks are always leashed. Pups are allowed on the couch and in bed. Snuggles are very important!

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I've been caring for dogs and cats for as long as I can remember. Our 5 children have grown and living on their own, so I currently have my sweet 2 dogs, Chica & Luna, who keep life fun, active, and full of love. In addition to my experience with pets, I've taught preschool and first grade, where safety, patience, and attentive care were always top priorities. I offer dog walks, drop-in visits, house sitting, and can comfortably administer oral medications when needed. I truly enjoy caring for pets of all personalities, whether they're social and energetic, calm and relaxed, or a little nervous and shy. With a gentle demeanor and a strong understanding of animal body language, I take the time to build trust and help every pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you're away. During my first year of retirement, pet care fits naturally into my flexible schedule, allowing me to provide reliable, attentive care while enjoying creating fine art on the side. I provide attentive care for pets in their own home, helping maintain their normal routine, comfort, and security. I can assist with feeding, walks, playtime, companionship, oral medications, and keeping pets happy and relaxed while their owners are away.

“First time using Leilani’s walking services for our dog. We used her for 14days. We met prior to the service and I could tell my dog loved her instantly. She took the time to get to know my dog. She discovered a hotspot on our dog and she assisted with applying the medication as well. She sent pictures of our dog during their walks. I would definitely use Leilani again in the future.”

“Glad we found Anne. She helped walking our dog when we were traveling. She was always on time and shared pics and updates about the walk. Cookie really enjoyed spending time. Anne is very accommodating. Highly recommend.”

About: Since 2023, I’ve volunteered at a high-risk animal shelter, working with animals who needed extra care, patience, and love to feel safe. I also have two pets of my own, so I understand how much they mean to you! In addition to my own pets, I’ve cared for many friends’ and family members’ animals, including dogs, cats, and even a chicken ! so I’m comfortable with a variety of animals and their unique needs. I also have a lot of experience working with pets that are anxious and fearful. I always treat your pets as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and well-behaved while in my care. And don’t worry, I welcome all the loving, protective “helicopter pet parents” out there, because I’m one too! My schedule is very flexible, and I’m happy to work around what’s best for you and your pets. I’m generally available any day of the week, and mornings work especially well for me. I can also help out on weekends! I always prioritize the safety and well-being of every pet in my care. I make sure the environment is clean, secure, and free of hazards, whether that means checking gates and doors, keeping toxic items out of reach, or creating a calm space for shy pets. Don’t be afraid to ask for pictures every hour because I do that too! In your home, I follow your instructions carefully to maintain your pet’s routine and make sure they feel comfortable in their familiar environment. If caring for pets in my home, I will always provide a safe and cozy space where they can relax, play, and feel loved. My goal is to earn your trust and help your pets feel as happy and safe as they do with you!

About: We have been frequently taking care neighbors and friends’ pets. My two teenagers love to play with animals and specially dogs. We can take your dogs to the park for walking and sniffing. I am available taking care your dog at home. Also I have two little helpers to play with your fur babies to make them happy. We are living in a single house with a large yard, dogs can run and play around in the back yard even in raining day.

“Laura has been walking my golden, Brodie regularly for a few weeks now and I'm really happy with how reliable and caring she is. She sends me updates and photographs on where they walked and lets me know if there are any issues. I really hope she'll continue walking Brodie and I highly recommend her dog walking services.”

About: Ive grown up feeding and walking my family dogs my whole life. I’ve pet sit for my neighbors and family friends dogs and cats. I love all animals and know how to handle all personalities of them. I am currently home from college, I go to California State Long Beach and am free for the summer all days of the week for pet sitting! I cannot have pets at my home, but at a clients home I will follow directions and respect all privacy and have respect to the home of my client.

About: I know how important it is to trust someone with your dog, and I take that responsibility seriously. I’m reliable, communicative, and always focused on your pet’s safety and happiness. Whether it’s walks, drop-ins, or just hanging with you pup, I make sure your dog gets the attention, exercise, and care they deserve each time! Tell me all about your dog's personality and needs and I'll be happy to accommodate. I've spent the last year caring and training my own pup full time. He's learned basic commands (sit, stay, up, down, lay down, come) and enjoys swimming, playing games like hide-and-seek within our home, and camping. I know all about the puppy phase and struggles with teething, their high energy and need for extra sleep as well as older dog's careful routines and need for company. I am a stay-at-home dog mom so my schedule is open and accommodating! I'm free on weekdays and weekends from 8am to 9pm. I have a bernedoodle puppy at home who is crate trained, walked daily, fed 3 times a day, and enjoys hide and seek and training games. I'll care for you dog as much as I care for my own. During house visits I'm capable of following your dogs particular routine for feedings, bathroom, walks, play, and sleep schedule. We can enjoy all their favorite activities together to ensure their comfort and safety as that is my top priority.

About: I’ve lived with animals my whole life; at both houses we had at least 3 cats and 3 dogs at a time with the occasional hamster, rat, snake, or rabbit. I’ve adopted most of my pets from shelters, and have helped raised two litters (one was kittens, the other was puppies). Having a wide variety of animals introduced me to a wide array of personality types from friendly and cuddly to moody or shy. These experiences have taught me to have an abundance of patience and understanding, and to be able to adapt to individual needs. The animals I’ve watched/raised/trained have been all different breeds and sizes; from a 3 pound chihuahua to a 85 pound German/Pitt mix. I’ve taken care of older dogs, who need extra care, as well as sick dogs and/or dogs with preexisting conditions who require medications once, twice, or three times a day. Not only have I helped with my animals, but I’ve watched other peoples houses/pets as well. I’m pretty much a homebody, so aside from a couple hours each day, I’m available and flexible and can hangout with your pets for as long as you need. I’m a great communicator too, so if an issue were to arise, I will reach out right away because your pet’s health and well-being is my top priority. I’m currently self-employed, so my schedule is open and flexible. I do prefer a couple of days of notice in advanced, unless it’s an emergency. I will take care of your pet however you need me to. When it comes your pets health and well-being, I know you know what’s best, and I will never disrespect your wants or needs. If you need me to house sit, I will respect your property. I’m very neat, organized, and clean (slightly OCD) so I would never leave a mess.

“Jane was fantastic. Super communicative and caring. My trip was so much more relaxing thanks to her time, attention and updates. Absolutely plan on using her again!”

About: when I was young I had a dog, he was accompanied me for a few years till someday he passed away, since then I didn't want to have a dog as I was so sad. Last year my second dog just passed away because of illness while he brought me another unforgettable time. After a year now my enthusiasm of taking care dogs restarts even I don’t have a dog with me. My wife and I work at home, so we have plenty of time. I tends to walk dog twice a day, sometimes I will go hiking with dogs. I have a fenced back yard, and dogs always sleep on sofa or in the cage, they will enjoy a fenced back yard with enough safety. I have experience of taking care of many dogs in the past years, and get experience of feeding and giving medicines to him, also I know some health issues about general senior dogs. the most important thing for a sitter is to have passion of loving dogs, all dogs are easily to handle if they feel love from you.

About: I have had pets my entire life and they are my prized jewel. I believe the love on an animal is like no other. I have pet sat for years and I will treat every animal like my own! Whether it’s a walk, drop in visit, or over night stay. I will make sure your fur babies get the love, rubs and attention they deserve! I am currently not working and I have all the time to spoil your babies! Whether if you plan a trip in advance or last minute needs, I would be honored to support! My cats are spoiled as they should be. From their multiple cat towers, to their unlimited rubs, I would say THEY truly run the house. I do everything in my power to ensure they are loved and cared for like my own children. I have never met an animal that hasn’t been comfortable with me, and I ensure they are in a calm, safe environment.
