Dog Walking In Excelsior

“Would highly highly recommend Joey. She is super responsive, caring, reliable, detail oriented, and was just overall great with our pups Mozie. She exercised him well every day and took great care of him. She also sent such cute pics every day she took him on a walk, and was detailed in her updates. We loved Joey and will definitely be using her again in the future!”

About: Grew up in a farm with tons of animals and dogs and cats, I have over 20 years of experience caring and boarding doggies. They help me a lot with my anxiety and depression and it's a full time job. Available all the time. I work from home so I'm always at home available to watch your baby. They will love making me company and that would be my pleasure. I have a huge fenced yard and I'm always at home. I have a daughter and I do domestic work at home. Animals will help me keep company.

About: I am a responsible, dependable animal lover who has cared for dogs, cats, birds, fish, and rabbits in the past. I can provide any support needed, including walking and hiking, feeding, play time, grooming, bathroom clean-up, and providing medication, if needed. I have worked as a dog walker and sitter for a company in Marin County, volunteered for two years at Wildcare, and currently volunteer and foster with NorSled Husky Rescue. I'm a part-time adjunct professor at SJSU in Environmental Studies and am only on campus on Tuesdays. My schedule is flexible the rest of the week. As a previous dog, cat, and small animal owner, I am comfortable caring for your animal using whatever instructions you provide. Setting up a time to meet beforehand to go over the details and so that you and your pet can get to know me is important, too.

About: I have had two dogs throughout my life, my current who is 14 years old! I am additionally a certified guide dog trainer (for Guide Dogs for The Blind) and have successfully trained 2 puppies through their 1-13 month respective phases. I love spending time with animals and will give full/attentive care to your pet! I am currently working full-time remote. My schedule allows me to be flexible throughout the week allowing me to provide ample time for your dog! I have a fully enclosed yard with no other (current) pets in the household. My flexible schedule allows me to keep a close eye on your pet and crate/go outside when needed!

“Great communication and patience with our dog. Tons of pics as well! We felt at easy knowing Shailyng would be taking Minnie out during the day.”

About: I’m a dog owner myself and care deeply about making sure pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I have experience caring for my own dog and helping friends with feeding, walks, playtime, and overnight care. I understand how important routine is for dogs and will make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. I’m reliable, communicative, and will send regular updates so you can feel at ease while you’re away. I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give pets attention and care.

About: I grew up with dogs and have cared for them since I was 6 years old and have helped family and friends to care for theirs while out of town. Love treating them as one of the family and giving them all the love and attention they need, As of right now my schedule is pretty open and can fit in walks, check ins and overnight care at just about any time. Consistent times work best as it allows me to schedule other activities around caring for my animal friends. I live in an apartment near the beach, I could make space in the home to setup a bed and play area within my place and we can get outside for walks along the cliffs or beach nearby. Have some open yard area for bathroom visits and possible socialization. Many dog parks nearby as well.

About: While I’m new to dog sitting, I bring a lot of patience, a love for animals, and a strong willingness to learn. I’m dependable and will follow your care instructions closely. I may not have years of experience, but I’ll treat your dog like family and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I currently work at a school, so I’m available on weekends for pet walks, pet sitting, and drop-in visits. With summer approaching, my schedule will be much more open. Please feel free to refer to my calendar, as I do my best to keep it up to date. I’m committed to providing consistent, loving care by following your pet’s routine and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away. Your pet’s well-being is always my top priority. I have over a year of experience caring for pets and offer pet sitting, drop-ins, and walks. I always follow your instructions closely to keep your pet’s routine consistent, including feeding, potty breaks, exercise, and any special care. During drop-ins and walks, I make sure your pet gets the attention, activity, and care they need. For pet sitting, I provide a calm, safe environment in your home while being respectful of your space. I care for every pet with patience, kindness, and genuine love, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away.

“Never met Nina but she was always quick to communicate over text, sent photos of Jacque, and Jacque appeared to love walks with her. Would definitely book her again!”

“Mariana graciously accepted my walk request on very short notice and alerted me right away to an abnormality with Henri’s poop. I appreciate the attention she gave to Henri.”

About: I started dogwalking in my neighborhood when I was 11 years old. I continued walking and caring for dogs when I was 16 by volunteering in my hometown dogshelter. With 18 I finally made my dream come true with getting my trainerlicence and adopting my first own dog I work as an aupair in the mornings and afternoons. During the day und the evenings and every weekend Iam always off what makes it possible for me to spend my free time with my passion, pets. I have a car which allowes me to come to your house and take care of the puppie in his environment, or take the dog out to a park, trails, a river or lakes. It’s also possible to take the dog to my place if needed. A dog who’s with me will never ever miss out any needs. I have an excellent sense and eye for animal language and their needs that they express. I can promis every pet and animal will always be in best hands and care. <3

“Alejandra has been a saving grace while I’ve been healing from plantar fasciitis and while my dog is sick with kennel cough and not allowed at his normal daycare. She has been so flexible with last minute requests, too! Highly recommend.”

About: Your pup will be in good hands! If you're new to Rover, use my code to save $20! NANCYC19805 My partner Andy and I both have flexible hybrid work schedules l so your pet will have plenty of care and attention throughout the day! We live in a 3 story home with a backyard and long driveway for dog runs. We live 10 minutes from 2 great parks. We both grew up with pets, both cats and dogs. Our rescue pup Coco passed away in Fall 2022 and we miss her very much. We now have Lulu (a sweet 9yo french bulldog) who we rescued from the same organization. Through our foster and Rover experiences, we have cared for many animals with different needs. We have experience with pets with mobility needs, shy/nervous pets, and pets that need medication. Although we have stairs, we are happy to carry your pet up and down the stairs, and we have a ramp to help them up the couch. We currently work from home and can give your pet as much (or as little) attention as they need. We typically do 2 longer walks and 2 short walks a day, but let us know what works best for your pup! On the weekends, we like to go to the park nearby or drive to parks in different neighborhoods and walk around. Let us know if there's anything special in taking care of your pet and we'll accommodate. I have a fenced yard to allow for quick breaks for your pet. We allow pets on our couch for cuddles, as long as they behave. Typically, we crate dogs at night, so please bring your dog’s crate for overnight stays. We have stairs leading up to our living room. We are happy to carry your pup up if under 30 lbs.

About: I’ve grown up with pets all my life! I’ve had a number of both cats and dogs throughout my childhood & adulthood. I currently have one tuxedo furbaby now—his name is Shiva, and I love him with all my heart. I’m currently on the search for full-time employment, so I have a completely open schedule that would give me more than enough time to incorporate pet-care into my daily routine. Since I’m mainly at home, I’m always with my pet cat, and making sure that he’s okay is my top priority. Whatever the client needs to be done for their pet is what I’m willing to do, no matter cat or dog. Just let me know how you would like for me to care for your pet(s)! Of course, I am always willing to provide the pets playtime, give them walks, and provide them with enough enrichment while you are away.

“Lesley was soooo helpful. My pups were in great hands <3”

“Great overall experience! I get worried when introducing a new person to my dog. We had no issues at all. Always on time and very respectful of my dogs demeanor. I will definitely use again.”

Michael W.

“Wow!! we've never had a walker like Crystal before! She and Luna immediately fell in love, and Crystal doted on her on every walk. She even made Luna a birthday cake biscuit ( after asking us first). At the same time, she was incredibly punctual and great at communication. She's great!”

Garry K.

“Dena walked our (recovering) reactive dog Monty and did a fantastic job. She was open to using treats and commands, and got him comfortable quickly. She’s a very calm presence with lots of experience (and love for!) with dogs. We will definitely hire her again!”

Courtney G.

“Christina is the best! We don’t have enough good things to say about her. We reached out in a pinch for last minute dog walker and she was so gracious and responsive to take care of our boys! We loved receiving pictures of our boys on their daily walks looking as happy as ever. It’s the best feeling knowing you’ve left them in great hands with someone you can trust. Christina was communicative and we would absolutely love to have her walk them again.”
