“Courtney is very professional, thoughtful and gentle, with my energetic Golden Retriever. She helped us in an over heat week. She planned routes with shade, and kept a very close eye to the dog during the walks. We will definitely book again!”


“I really appreciated Michael’s excellent communication skills, promptness, and reliability. He was also very patient with my pup, even in the face of her anxious barking behaviour.”


“Caleb has walked my dog Bennett almost everyday this week. He is nothing short of amazing. Very professional, respectful, loves your dog like his own! He brings my pup back happy and tired! He's considerate of the weather, and carries water to make sure your dog stays hydrated. He goes above and beyond, and Bennett thinks he is his new best friend! I cannot recommend him enough!”


“Maddie was great with my dogs. The are older dogs, but one acts like a puppy and the other acts more like middle age. Maddie did great making both of them happy. She sent over tons of pics each visit. She texted me during the visit to tell me how the older one was doing. I'd highly recommend her.”


About: I've taken care of dogs for 35+ years. My dogs have lived to 16-17 years, so I am familiar with pill schedules and tailored meal plans. I moved for work and secured dog-friendly housing (we're a package deal). Currently, we go on daily walks and outdoor adventures. I have safe spaces so the dog can "take a break", but snuggles are always available. My daily routine ensures your dog will go for a walk every day. Your dog's walks will include time to sniff and explore. I will respect your dog's wish/desire to be pet and cuddled. For example, my dog's morning routine includes nose to tail body rubs and a kiss on top of the head. However, that's the end of "snuggling, petting, cuddling" for the day. :-D I have a fenced yard for my dog that he has access to when needs it. He has his crate that he uses for naps or just to hang out in a comfy spot.

“Trina is dependable and very sweet to our dog who isn’t the easiest to take on walks due to her reactiveness around other dogs.”


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.

About: My husband and I moved to Los Altos Hills to help care for my father and I have recently left a career in marketing. I’m looking to fill my free time with more caring! I’m experienced carer for dogs & cats of all ages, sizes, and temperaments including the Big Boys. I’ve raised all our dogs from puppy and currently own a 13 y/o F Border Collie and 10 y/o Shitzu-Bichon mix. Our 4 y/o, 110lb German Shepard died in 2023 of lymphoma and I have experience in end of life care. He was an anxious dog and gave me lots of experience in dealing large dogs w/ difficult temperments. I have house sitted many other dog breeds as well. In addition I own a very vocal 16 y/o Main Coon Cat and have cat sitted cats of all ages and temperaments. I also have experience with fostering young kittens and caring for kittens. To round out the menagerie we also have a 4 y/o Chinchilla and I have many years experience caring for Rabbits, Rats, & Hamsters. I’m so lucky to live near family who can cover my pet-mom duties for me so I’m currently free full-time. I will adjust my schedule as my availability changes. I’m happy to stay over night, administer medication, cook meals if diet requires (fee applies), do long walks or short walks, long check-ins or short drop by, comfortable with crates, loud dogs, and dogs that are all over you.

“My German Shepard absolutely loves Katja. Katja is just amazing with him. He waits patiently at the door for her to show up to take him on walks every single time. It’s super adorable! Katja is so kind, fun and responsible. We love her and feel so lucky to have found her.”


“Elise was great as usual. I was stuck at work all day for two days in a row, and she did an excellent job walking Pippa for me two times each day. Pippa was happy and relaxed when I returned.”

susan p.
“Susan is a responsible and loving dog owner. She always made sure vaccinations were up to date (that's how I learned about the mobile vet service!) to keep her pups health. Cody and Tucker had their daily walks and meals - they even dined "al fresco" on the patio. When my dog heard Susan's car, he would jump over and wait for her at her front door. She took my dog along for walks in the nearby forest/park. When I couldn't find Speckles, I'd walk over and pick him up from her house.”
