About: I love dogs and with years of experience as a dog parent to my own two furry friends, I've honed my skills in caring for dogs of all ages and breeds. I'm a patient and gentle soul, especially with our senior friends who need a little extra TLC. You can count on me to provide reliable and trustworthy dog walking services, tailored to your pup's unique needs. I also offer assistance with leash training to help your dog become a well-behaved walking buddy. Let's take a stroll and make some unforgettable memories together! Dogs daily routine will be 7am wake up and walk, 8am breakfast and relax, 1pm potty break and treat toys, 6pm dinner and walk, 10pm bedtime. Dogs will receive all the care they need. I can accommodate special needs for extra special dogs. On request, I could work on leash training.

“Maya walked my dachsund Calvin every day after I had knee replacement surgury and she was a godsend! She is very sweet, punctual and Calvin loved her! I feel comfortable with Maya and will happily trust her with our pup again!”



About: My passion for pets and commitment to their well-being, have helped me acquire invaluable experience caring for dogs of all ages and temperaments. From energetic puppies who can’t get enough playtime to seniors who prefer a cozy spot by the window, I tailor my approach to meet each dog's unique needs. I understand the importance of routine, which is why I prioritize punctual feeding and walking schedules. For many dogs, these moments are the highlights of their day, and I strive to make every experience enjoyable and fulfilling. Whether it’s hiking for the adventurous or gentle leash walks for those who like to take it easy, I’m dedicated to ensuring their happiness and comfort during their time apart from their owners. Additionally, I'm attentive to the emotional needs of pets who require extra affection and support. I take pride in creating a nurturing environment that helps ease their anxiety and keeps them engaged and content while their family is away. With my pet care experience, you can trust that your furry family members will receive the love, attention, and care they deserve! My schedule allows me to be flexible enough to adapt to your pets schedule! Thursday nights are when I'm on a tighter schedule but I'm glad to talk this over! I make sure to make their time away from you as close to their daily routine as possible. I make sure to know their likes and dislike to make them feel as safe and comfortable as possible. There are some dogs that do not feel good in loud and busy areas. So I make sure to go on walk them in quieter places. Also, if I am house sitting some prefer to co-sleep and I am comfortable doing so. Every pet care experience is catered to your and your pets liking :)

About: I have a 65 pound labrador retriever, she is very sweet and is still a puppy! She loves life and is looking to play with other dogs! I've owned a cat for 7 years and a small french terrier dog as a teenager. I stay home all day, and will walk your dog multiple times a day. I usually like to take my dog to either the dog pool club, the beach, the city, or the dog park. I have a fenced potty area and unfenced front and backyard. We have a big play area for dogs inside the house where the dogs could play, and sleep.


About: Our family has had a black lab/boxer for over 8 years, and I grew up with dogs in the household. I am active and we love to take our pup on walks, to the park, and play around the family. Would love to extend my care to your dog, as a home away from home or puppy playdate treat. I'm currently a stay at home mom and freelance artist, so available for flexible doggy day care and overnight boarding. Please reach out for initial meet and greet or to schedule. We have a fenced in yard, active middle aged dog who gets along great with all size pups, and a loving home with 3 girls who also love animals.

About: I have taken care of many kinds of dogs since childhood, including a German shepherd, cocker spaniel, Bichon frise, and American Staffordshire. I also have about 5 years of experience working at animal shelters and dog and cat sitting. I have walked, fed, played with, and trained dogs, including elderly and anxious dogs and played with and cleaned up after kittens and adult cats. I am full-time PhD student, so my schedule is very flexible. I would love to take care of your dog or cat whenever I am not in class. I work extremely hard to ensure a safe and enriching environment for the pets in my care. If there are specific instructions, I will follow them closely and carefully. I am happy to pick up mail and take care of house plants too. Above all, I love animals and want them to be healthy and happy.


About: I have had dogs since I was 15y old, since then I understood that these loving creatures need our attention and care to be the best they can be and behave the way we need them to by providing guidance, boundaries and understanding. I am looking for a new career, that actually I could be passionate about, caring and training dogs have seem a dream for me and now even gets paid is a dream job. I don't own a house but there's a dog are in my complex, so boarding at home only for small dogs is possible, at client's home I keep the dog(s) entertained and exercise as needed, so they could be calm and the time away from dog parent(s) would seem short and free of anxiety, just like my dog at home.

I've also walked and looked after neighbors' and friends' dogs, ensuring they get plenty of exercise, attention, and love. Whether your pup needs a fun walk, belly rubs, or extra patience, I treat every dog like family! As a student, home from college, it's easy for me to fit pet care into my day.

About: A couple of years ago, I worked for Primal Canine Dog Training as a Kennel Tech and was training to become a dog trainer. As a Kennel Tech., I cared for about 20 dogs a day, all different breeds and sizes. I cleaned their kennel area, feed them, gave them water, took all of them on walks, did agility training through an obstacle course on-site, worked on their basic obedience, showered them, cleaned up any messes they made, and of course, gave them lots of treats, pets, and overall, love. Since I left Primal Canine, I have continued my dog care and training through working with owners like yourself in taking care of their dogs. I have been walking many dogs as well as dog/house sitting. The difference from working at Primal Canine and working as an independent dog caretaker is that I now have the opportunity to develop a stronger and closer bond with each dog I care for since I spend more time with them. I also used to live with two Pomeranian dogs and worked with dogs on film sets, filming them as they "acted" on command. To me, all dogs, no matter how big, are like little children. They need to be loved, respected, played with, strengthened, and guided to do the right actions. I see each dog has its own unique & individual self. In this, I treat each dog different from others and with the same love and respect I'd give for all dogs.

About: I’ve dog sat and walked dogs since I was little and love taking care of dogs. I also have a dog so I know how to take care of dogs and pets! I’m working part time! Friday-Monday I’m available for sitting and walking. Looking for some dogs to hangout with, walk, and watch for weekends or during the day! I have a fenced in yard and one dog at home. My dog receives two walks a day and plenty of attention during the day!

About: I grew up helping my grandma walk her dogs, and more recently, I supported my host family in caring for several dogs—feeding, walking, and keeping them company. I’ve learned how to read their body language, respect their boundaries, and keep them safe and happy. I’m patient, responsible, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I'm mostly available on weekends and can also do evening check-ins if you're away for multiple days. I'm flexible and communicative—feel free to reach out to schedule! Since my apartment doesn’t allow pets, I’m not able to host them in my home. I provide care at your home or nearby for walks. I always prioritize your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine, and I make sure to respect your space just like I would my own.
