Dog Walking in Downtown, Santa Barbara

“Cassandra was so thoughtful to leave me pics during their walk that reassured me Lucy was in excellent hands! I’m looking forward to using Cassandra again on my next excursion knowing Cassandra is the best!”

“Amira was so kind and did a great job walking my girl while I was at an event. Would definitely book her again if I needed it”

“Super friendly and on time! Reg is nice and tuckered out after the walk.”

“Amber is great with animals. Every time we see her she makes sure to give all of our pets love. I don’t think I have seen her be able to walk by a dog she didn’t try to pet. Highly recommend her!”

“Rowena took care of our pets on two occasions. We have an elderly Chihuahua rescue and a puppy. She gave them both loving and attentive care”

“Alejandra has always been the best pet owner/trainer/caretaker I have met. The work put into the dogs as well as love and attention is unmatched. Taking a dog that refuses to sit and being able to teach it to sit in such a short amount of time is impressive. They hold a vast knowledge on dogs and just pets in general and I have not seen a pet that has not taken a liking to them due to their caring nature. I always trust them with any pet I have for I know they are truly in the best hands.”

Additionally, we make a daily trip to the leashed side of Hendry's Beach or one of the many local parks that are dog friendly and our favorites like Hale Park or Toro Canyon Park plus I plan other interactive and exciting outings based on the individual needs and preferences of each pet. Transportation is not a problem, as I have a dog-friendly Honda Accord equipped with harnesses, bungees, dog seat belts with bungees, and a crate for small to medium size dogs.

I am always happy to provide excellent service and tailor my approach to meet the individual needs of each pet.

“Testimonial for Chris “Chris is an absolute gem when it comes to pet care! His kindness, patience, and genuine love for animals shine through in everything he does. He goes above and beyond to ensure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and truly cared for. Not only is he incredibly reliable and professional, but he also has a natural ability to connect with animals, making even the most nervous pets feel at ease. Chris doesn’t just provide pet care; he provides peace of mind. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your furry family members like his own, Chris is the perfect choice!””

“Bethany is wonderful and my pup adores her! She is friendly, trustworthy and an excellent communicator. She went the extra mile when in-home sitting for my dog by taking her on special outings to get exercise, sending text pup-dates, and she left the house immaculate. I didn't have a single worry while I was away. I highly recommended Bethany and will definitely use her again!”

“Great experience Honestly everything you could ask for Dependable and great with my Sheepadoodle Would highly recommend and will definitely use again”

“James was great for Apache. He was on time, communicated throughout and sent me lots of photos which I appreciated very much. James even went out of his way to take Apache for a few car rides (with my permission of course) for different walk destinations. Overall James has been amazing! I will definitely get James to walk Apache again and recommend him to anyone.”

“Natasha is fantastic. Super friendly and professional, and she was so great with our pup. We are definitely going to keep requesting her for more walks with our pup!”

About: I had a dog when I was 10 and usually took him out for walks. Unfortunately, he passed away few years ago. And now I have 2 cats back in my parents’ house. Im willing to take care both cats and dogs! I often take dogs out for a walk from shelter and i am enjoying it! I am working part-time and have plenty of time to do something else. I can spend time to play with pets and I do enjoy playing with pets. I have fenced yard and camera around the house that I can check on the pets. I have cats equipments at home since I already have 2 cats.

“Sarah is an absolute gem! I needed help with dog walking while my husband was traveling. She is prompt, reliable, so sweet and will update me with pictures which is always comforting. Also she would send me a Rover card with a map and updates from my dogs walk, love it! Our Pom loves her and we are so happy we found her!”

“Grace took excellent care of Jett while I was on travel. She was very prompt for this afternoon walks as well as detailed in the Rover reports. Highly recommend booking with Grace. Thanks so much :)”

“Ellie is the absolute best dog sitter/walker! She is very responsible, honest, and a great communicator. My dog Henry loves her. I highly recommend her services.”

“Kathleen is amazing! Incredible with dogs and very patient and kind with humans as well. You can tell she loves animals and has a lot of experience with them!”

About: I have been working and training dogs and cats, birds and exotics for over 15 years and if I can provide your animals with comfort while you’re away from home, I’m here to help. I am an active person and can take your dog on long walks multiple times a day, or we can relax and enjoy the comfort of their home just by sticking to their normal routine. Places I like to walk dogs so that they can get a full days exercise is the Douglas preserve on the Mesa in Santa Barbara, More Mesa location in Goleta off of Patterson, Tuckers Grove off of Turnpike, the Hot and Cold Springs in Montecito, as well as a few others. My car is fully equipped to transport dogs up to 70lbs and I do not drive with more than 2 dogs in my car at a time. Thank you for your allowing me to be of service to you and your furry loved ones and I look forward to our meet and greet 😊 Pet care fits into my routine simply by being the amazing animals they are. They keep me busy and away from my desk, and give me an opportunity to go out and do the things I love to do where I don’t have to do them alone. For example, hiking and walking. They’re always with me and they will have my undivided attention. Two blocks from two parks and a drive away from Douglas preserve and many other incredible places for dogs.

“Great communication. Pictures every day and updates on the walk. It was great to know a dog lover was taking care of my girl.”

“Alex took care of my English Shepard named Riley in Portland, OR throughout the pandemic and I could not have been happier with the way she treated him. She was consistent and compassionate, treating Riley exactly the way I try to -- even when he was especially moody after a surgery. On the human side, Alex was responsible, a great communicator and a dog-lover and I know she's eager to get to spend more time working with dogs since moving to Santa Barbara. High high recommend!”
