Dog Walking In Encino Park

“This week was a crazy week! Tim rolled with it. He is patient and works around all the shenanigans going on at our house. He spends quality time with the dogs.”

“Samantha is very responsible and careful about her communication. You can tell a real love of animals and people are at the root of her choice to do dog walking. I think you will appreciate her services.”

Kathy R.

“Andria has been a real help to me this past week with all the weather uncertainty. She is responsible about communicating….. and on time when she is committed to a certain date and time. I think her qualifications are more than adequate for the responsibility she carries in walking our precious pets.”

Kathy R.

“Thank you so much that means the world. She’s a little out of routine as we just got back from travel and unexpectedly needed help. I SO much appreciate the care!”

Holly V.

“Yaretzi is wonderful. She’s a great communicator, punctual and so great with our Australian Shepherd, Sadie. She can get very excited for her walk and Yaretzi handles it with such patience. Highly recommended her!”

“Gennivere keeps our 4 month old puppy safe and happy, he's learned to be much calmer and more obedient from interacting with her and loves her visits.”

Liz K.

“Cole was absolutely wonderful to my dog and cat. Timely, kind, thorough updates and photos and even picked up a package for me. ??? highly recommend!”

About: I’ve cared for my dog for 5 years now and my cat for 11 years. My neighbors and family always call on me to watch their pets when they are out of town including stopping by and house sitting when needed. I have always loved all furry friends and even wanted to be a vet when I was little! I am a full time college student so in the summers I need something to fill my free time! I love staying active and doing something productive in my days and what is better than caring for some furry friends! In my home we have a fenced in backyard with locks on the gates. When taking my dog out we always have a leash on with a firm grip. This will apply to all the clients I see as their dogs care and safety is the number one priority. All pets will have my full attention at all times.

“Gihan is the best. She was super sweet, and took great care of my pups. She also sent over a bunch of pictures which is always great. :) Definitely going to reach out to her again next time I need help with pups. Thanks again for all your help, Gihan!!”

About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs my whole life—growing up with big dogs and now sharing my home with three little ones of my own. I genuinely love caring for dogs and spending time with them—it’s second nature to me. One of my favorite things is seeing how excited and happy dogs get when it’s time for a walk! I also have experience giving medication, including pills, thanks to my schnauzer who has allergies. Whether it’s a quick visit or a fun stroll around the neighborhood, I’m here to give your pup the love and attention they deserve. I’m retired Air Force and loving this chance to spend more time with the animals I adore. I’m available for dog walks and drop-in visits during late mornings, lunch hours, and early afternoons on weekdays. Weekends are a bit more limited, but I’m still happy to help when I can! Whether your pup needs a midday walk, a quick potty break, or some one-on-one attention, I’m here to make their day a little brighter. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. As a dog owner with a lively pack of three, I’m very experienced in managing multiple dogs and understanding different personalities and energy levels. I take the responsibility of caring for your pet seriously—whether it’s a solo visit or a group walk. I always follow your instructions, practice safe leash handling, and make sure every pet feels calm, loved, and secure. You’ll get regular updates, photos, and the peace of mind that your furry friend is in experienced, caring hands.

“Thank you. It would not let me leave the total I wanted to for 3-9 to 3-27. I will give you cash on Thursday.”

“Demetria was prompt and handled our 1yo pittie boy very well. He is fairly new to walking outside the house and she reported he was very good and she was attentive to what could be a distraction for a dog new to getting out and handled him perfectly. Would recommend and use again! Thank you!”

About: I've had experience with labradors as family pets for roughly 10 years. From their interesting bathing routines to their high energy bursts I understand the struggles! I also have experience with small dogs and australian shepherds. I am currently focusing on dog walking but I am more than willing to accommodate to other pet necessities. I am a full time RN which means I work 3 nights a week. Pet care will be doable for about 4 times a week! My schedule is flexible so it is not consistent every week but I am available to go for early and midday walks. I am willing to accommodate pet care should I be free to do so! I will follow the pet owners routine so that they are not confused in the change of care. I will do my best to stay consistent and to practice their upmost safety.

About: I have been pet sitting for about five years now and have experience with many different sizes and breeds of animals! I raised a lamb, goat, and a guide dog in high school and personally, I have owned a Cavachon, and a Labrador. I used to work at a dog daycare for about a year and I volunteered with Animal Defense League! Currently I am on summer break and so I have full availability! In the fall, I will only go to school on Mondays and Wednesdays. I never take my eyes off of a pet, especially if we are outside. I always make sure that they are next to me when passing someone else or another pet on a walk and redirect them is needed. I always greet animals I do not know calmly and gently, I never want to overstimulate them.

About: I’ve been pet sitting for friends and family for what feels like forever! I have two great danes, a siamese cat, two budgies, and a coop full of chickens at home so I know and love the chaos of having pets at home. I’m a college student who adores animals and I would love to be able to spend time with yours! I’m a college student still on summer break and I only work part time, so I’m available most of the time and would love to spend my free time giving lots of love. Currently my house is a little too packed full to accommodate anyone else! But one day I would love to give the full hotel experience.

“Our boy Ace loved Candice! He was very happy after his walk! Quick response and arrival!”

About: I've taken care of animals my whole life, from big farm animals to small animals like cats and dogs! I am a dog dad myself, and my lil buddy and I enjoy going out for walks, meeting new people, and just enjoying life. Whether your pet is big or small, playful or calm, I will do my best to make them happy and safe while they are in my care. Taking care of my lil buddy and other furry friends is a natural and fulfilling part of my daily routine. Whether it’s morning walks, scheduled feeding times, or play sessions, I build my day around making sure the pets in my care feel comfortable, loved, and engaged. I enjoy the consistency and joy that caring for animals brings, and I’m attentive to their unique needs. Whether I’m working from home or managing errands, I prioritize pet check-ins, exercise, and quality time throughout the day and week. I treat every pet like a member of the family—whether they’re staying in my home or I’m visiting them in theirs. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding, walking, playtime, and any medications or special care they need. In a client’s home, I make sure their pet feels safe and relaxed in their familiar environment while respecting the space and keeping everything clean and tidy. My goal is always to provide consistent, loving care so pets feel happy and comfortable while their owners are away. Whether they are full of energy or just like to relax and snuggle, I will provide the best care possible.

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have always helped care for family pets, including feeding, walking, bathing, and giving them lots of attention and love. I’ve also pet sat for my cousin’s dog and cat, where I was responsible for their daily routines, walks, feeding, and making sure they felt comfortable while their owner was away. I’m very patient, attentive, and understand how important it is to follow a pet’s routine and make them feel safe in a new environment. I’m comfortable with different dog sizes, personalities, and energy levels, and I always make sure pets get the care, exercise, and affection they need. I have a flexible schedule (work remotely) and can be available for walks, drop-ins, and sitting throughout the week. I’m especially available during afternoons, evenings, and weekends. I’m reliable, responsive, and happy to work with your pet’s specific routine and needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always follow owner instructions closely and make sure pets feel secure and cared for in their own home. I’m attentive on walks, aware of my surroundings, and experienced navigating busy NYC streets safely with dogs. I’ll treat your home and pet with the same care and respect as my own.

“So thankful to have found Abby on Rover! I just moved to the area and had to start over with finding someone to walk my dog while I worked long shifts and Abby is the perfect fit! My little dude is very shy and Abby has been so patient with him, gives me peace of mind knowing he’s getting well taken care of ❤️”
