Dog Walking Downtown

“Nicky took SUCH good care of our dog. We were nervous about leaving our pup but Nicky updated us very frequently and my anxious dog loved her. Nicky gave her so much love and it made us feel so good about being away from our pup knowing how good of hands she is in. My pup is a reactive dog and Nicky was able to handle her better than we even can. I’m so grateful to have had her take care of our pup. Couldn’t ask for better! :)”

“Cristina was great! My dog can be a bit much on walks, since she is a high energy dog and can be reactive at times, but she seemed to manage her just fine! It was so convenient that she lived in my area. I would definitely recommend anyone, Loba took to her very quickly!”

“Esteban is wonderful! Our dog Luna took to them right away, and it's clear they genuinely care about the animals in their care. I also really enjoyed getting to chat with Esteban—they're warm, friendly, and easy to talk to :)”

“Sophie has been amazing with my girl Rosie as she adjusts to city life. She has made a huge impact on keeping her calm and helping keep her active by giving her good exercise and working with to stay calm and focused while encountering squirrels, other dogs and loud noises on their walks. I have noticed such a change due to Sophie's interventions. Sophie is prompt, communicative and kind. A one of a kind! Rosie adores her!”

“Christine is detail-oriented and incredibly caring in her approach! She was communicative throughout, asked good questions as needed, and took extra care to ensure my dog Ellie trusted her and had a good time. An excellent helping hand!”

About: I’ve cared for pups for friends, family, and neighbors, and have also had the joy of fostering dogs. I love getting to know each dog’s personality and giving them plenty of love, attention, and cuddles. I will send all of my clients high-quality (and cute!) daily photo/video updates 🎞️ My schedule is pretty flexible! I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, boarding, and house sitting throughout the week, and most weekends as well. I’m in class Wednesday evenings from 6–9pm and one weekend a month, but otherwise I have plenty of availability to spend time with your pup. I live in a dog-friendly apartment with my 6-year-old Frenchie, who gets along great with other dogs. I live in a smaller space so I will only take 1 booking at a time for boarding. I’m an anxious pet parent myself so I strive to give other humans peace of mind via detailed updates.

“Danielle really cares about the dogs and is an excellent communicator, she shows up on time and is so kind!”

About: I’ve taken care of family’s and friends’ pets anywhere from puppies to older dogs, and also larger dogs like huskies. I respect every household’s rules for caring for their pets, and ensure the pets are safe, healthy, and happy! Currently at home full-time, so very flexible and open to caring for your pets when you need a break or have travel / social engagements! I can keep a crate in my home and live right on Lake Merritt with a large grass pasture just across the street by the lake where I would take dogs to. Walking around the lake/grass is a fan favorite!

“Jerri was very comfortable with our 2 big dogs greeting har at the door. They can be a bit overwhelming, but she handled their attention. She provided along walk for our husky and was very confident and personable.”

About: Hi, I’m Lauren, a graduate student looking to spend a little free time with the best kind of company! I've personally sprinkled love over a variety of small and large dogs and I’ve bent the knee to a competing array of cats! I’ve been a pet parent to both so I also know all about pet codependency AND personal boundaries lol. I believe the “Pets of Bookings Past” would describe me as patient, energy-matching, adaptable, reliable and fun (my *REAL* reviews will confirm this lol). I enjoy playing games, practicing tricks, and going on exploratory walks! I am available for short term and reoccurring walk requests, drop in services, and home sittings. I look forward to building relationships with new pet families! I’m available for morning/evening walks and drop ins midday /evenings. Flexible availability most weekends! I’m open to regular and reoccurring bookings as well ! I’m attentive, and intuitive,I love playing! I monitor food levels, clean messes, and embrace routines so everything feels normal with minimal frustration and maximal ease!

About: Hey there! I've had dogs my entire life, they are earth angels 😇 and it is a pleasure and honor to be able to care for them. I am available for sitting overnights at yours or my place anytime year round! I have been professionally pet sitting for about 9 years and love it! I am capable of supporting any training you have going on and I use positive reinforcements. Experienced with many personalities and needs, I am a patient and reliable animal lover. While I am home 95% of the time, if they have severe separation anxiety, it is helpful and preferred if you provide anti-anxiety medication, as I do still have to step out briefly occasionally. My goal and priority is to make them as comfortable as possible while you're away, and to give you peace of mind that they are safe and happy! I live in an apartment with great natural light near Lake Merritt, making walks very accessible. I am highly attentive to their needs and our surroundings, and am a cuddle master. We can discuss and tailor as you see fit! I love cats and others also, so if a dog isn't your need, I got'cha! I check in with photos at least 1x a day and can add or reduce based on your preferences. I'm passionate about eco-sustainability and regeneration, enjoying life, beautiful food, and overall wellness for everyone. I have a decent amount of flexibility, which allows me to be present the majority of the time to spend with them, and I'm a homebody. I am happy to work with your schedule. I'm affectionate, I communicate clearly, directly, and friendlily. With you and your animals. I am protective and highly intune with my surroundings and those in them. I make sure everyone has what they need!

“Lily took great care of Murphy while I was out of town. She’s really friendly and showed up on time and took him for a nice long walk. I will definitely be using her services again, highly recommend! Thank you Lily!”

“Winston and I love Tami! I always get the best updates and pictures of my dog, and she really cares for his well-being! This is probably the 4th time Tami has walked Winston and I will continue to rely on her. She is simply the best”

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs my whole life within my family but I’ve also taken my own path on raising puppies from the liter of my own dogs in my parents home having babies. As I’ve gotten older, I’ve taken in two dogs from the streets and have been raising them since one month old. I work for myself so any time I’d need to accommodate for your pups needs I can do that ! I just want to be of convenience for the dog parents because I know how hard it can be managing your life with your fur baby. I have crates if preferred to be used but I also have my own babies that I can bring over to spend time with your fur baby so they don’t feel alone or left out. My babies love other dogs, they are so playful and fun !

“Patrice was very prompt and communicative. She helped my nervous senior dog to feel comfortable with her and was able to take him out for a successful walk when he has been very shy with other dog walkers. Would definitely book with her again!”

About: I have over 15 years of experience caring for both cats and dogs. Since childhood, I’ve been surrounded by pets and learned to understand their body language and unique needs. At 25, I adopted and personally trained my own dog, who grew into a smart, well-behaved companion. I also fostered many cats and dogs and volunteered in animal shelters. Now in the U.S., I adopted two rescue cats who are thriving with me. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me for years to walk, feed, bathe, and comfort their pets. Whether your furry friend is playful, shy, senior, or full of energy, I provide loving, safe, and attentive care as if they were my own. Pet care is my full-time focus right now, so I’m available around the clock — mornings, evenings, weekends, and overnight. I don’t have a separate job pulling me away, which means my day is built entirely around your pet’s routine: walks, feeding, medication, playtime, and steady company. Last-minute bookings and longer visits are rarely a problem for me. With many years of experience caring for both cats and dogs, I understand how important it is to follow your instructions exactly and to make your pet feel safe and happy. Friends often trust me to foster their pets, and I always make sure they feel loved, played with, walked, and even lightly trained if needed. Whether I’m in your home or welcoming your pet into mine, you can be sure I’ll provide the same level of care, attention, and affection as I do for my own two rescue cats. Your pet’s comfort and well-being will always be my top priority.

About: I grew up with cats and dogs. I was taught to care for them with kindness and patience. I was taught how to bottle feed, clean litter boxes, make sure bowls are clean and play with all pets to make sure they get the attention they deserve I’m available weekends starting Thursday for home drop ins or walks. Thursdays and Friday after 5:30pm, and Saturday and Sunday all day work best for home drop ins and walks I’m very active and can do long walks or plays. I can also do drop-ins. I’m flexible and communicative to ensure you don’t have any extra stressors and able to enjoy your travels/ days off.

“Emily was so kind with my chihuahua mix. My dog is not the typical dog who wants to walk or play fetch but Emily was very patient with her and gave my pup a friendly face every day!! Emily is the best!!”
