Dog Walking Fontenay Villa

About: • 🐶 Experience with pets of all ages and temperaments, including seniors and rescues • ❤️ Reliable communication — I’ll always keep you updated with messages, photos, and peace of mind • 🏠 Respectful of your home and routine, keeping everything just the way you left it I have full availability at the moment and I have my own reliable source of transportation. I am very much open to communicating to work out scheduling With years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats and I treat every pet like they’re my own. I’m not just here to feed and walk your pet, I’m here to give them love, attention, and a safe, stress-free environment while you’re away. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care. My goal is to make you feel 100% confident that your furry friend is in loving, capable hands.

About: I’ve taken care of and owned animals of all kinds for well over a decade. Taught and trained by my mother, who’s been a vet tech for over 40 years! I have extensive knowledge of proper pet care practices and continue to keep up to date with all the latest information and research. I have experience handling, training, and caring for pets of various sizes and breeds; including large-small dogs, senior dogs & cats, puppies & kittens, and high needs pets! If your fur baby has behavioral issues or quirks, needs daily medication, and/or has strict dietary guidelines, you can trust that your pets special needs will be met to your standards while in my care! New to Rover, but experienced in Pet Sitting! I work part time as a creative professional and musician with a relatively flexible schedule, so I have plenty of time to care for your pet family! If I’m scheduled for a pet care service, I will plan and dedicate my time accordingly. ADDITIONAL/ADJ service fees: I charge a $4 late fee per 30min of service used beyond the agreed upon pet sitting period *this only applies to stays lasting longer than 8 hours* I of course am willing to wave this fee for extenuating circumstances. Thank you for understanding! I am a very attentive, intuitive, and patient person with both humans and pets. I pride myself on being organized, structured, and honest in home & work environments, and have always lived by the golden rule of leaving a place better than you found it! If the service you choose requires daily and/or overnight stays at your home, you can rely on me to treat your home and pet/s with all the respect and care it deserves.

About: I have cared for dogs, cats, fish, and other animals all my life! I rescue animals when I can, have fostered, bottle fed, treated injuries, given injections and medications to many animals. Animals are my comfort zone- just being around them is my joy! I can do short walks, herding dog games, feed, or provide overnight care. I especially love herding and other working breed dogs, and typically get along with even difficult animals (feral cats for example!) I would love to meet you and your pets! I am in Redwood Estates, in the Santa Cruz mountains. I am a recently retired high school teacher sill working part time at UCSC, so am available most days to care for your pets. I have 2 dogs and 2 kitties at home, bit can easily help out pet parents who need extra walks, play time, or vacation care! My pets are my family (fur babies!) i will care for your pets like my own! I can care for your pets in your home- the least stressful for them! Or take them to a park, hikes, or a leisurely walk. In your home I will make sure to keep everything tidy, and treat your pets as my family- lots of snuggles and playtime!

“James has been a wonderful Dog Walker for my spaniel and I highly recommend him. James has a very flexible schedule and is an excellent and prompt communicator. He has been very accommodating, and extremely helpful with my last-minute requests. In addition to taking excellent care of my dog, he also brings in heavy unexpected packages without being asked. I will definitely use James in the future.”

About: Hi! My name is Cambria and I absolutely love animals. I’ve grown up in a home where we have always had at least 10 animals at a time, so caring for pets has been a part of my everyday life for as long as I can remember. Because of that, I’m comfortable with all kinds of animals and personalities. I’ve taken care of just about every type of pet you can imagine, including dogs, cats, bunnies and so much more. I regularly dog sit, cat sit, and help friends, neighbors, and family members care for their pets when they’re away. I’m very patient, attentive, and truly love spending time with animals. Whether it’s walks, feeding, playtime, or just keeping them company, I make sure every pet feels safe, happy, and loved. I treat every pet like family and make sure they get the care, attention, and love they deserve. I’m also happy to do a quick meet-and-greet before any booking so you and your pet feel completely comfortable. I’m very flexible and happy to work with your pet’s routine to make them feel comfortable I also love sending pet parents updates, photos, and videos while I’m taking care of their pets (only if you’d like them!). I know it can be hard being away from your animals even for a day, so I’m always happy to help you feel reassured that they’re doing great. I’m a college student with a flexible schedule, which allows me to spend plenty of time caring for pets. I’m available for drop-in visits, walks, and pet sitting throughout the week and on weekends. I always make sure pets get the time, attention, and routine they’re used to so they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for while their owners are away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special needs so I can provide the best care possible. I’m very attentive and careful when entering and leaving homes, making sure pets stay safe and secure at all times. I also love sending updates, photos, and videos if owners would like them so they always know their pet is happy and doing well.

“Jennifer did an amazing job getting our super timid dog to be comfortable with her and with walking our two dogs. She was prompt and very communicative. Would highly recommend for anyone looking for a dog walker!”

“Meghan was excellent! She was punctual, friendly, and well-suited to handle my large breed dog! I’m super grateful for her efforts and I would absolutely work with her again!”

About: I am a responsible, nurturing and kind individual who loves all animals. I have owned small dogs, large dogs, a cat, aquatic pets, and taken care of many of my friends', family members' pets and been referred to many to care for their dogs and cats. In my last relationship I took full responsibility for three large dogs, one which was a rescue adopted as a puppy, (feeding, administering medications, training, exercise, bathing, grooming, vet visits) for about 5 years. I am currently working part-time and taking a break from school while I prepare to apply to a health profession program. This gives me a very open and flexible schedule, allowing me to accommodate a variety of pet care needs, including morning, afternoon, evening, weekend, and overnight care. Because of my flexible availability, I can devote plenty of time and attention to your pet, ensuring they stay on their normal routine with regular walks, playtime, feeding, potty breaks, and lots of love and companionship. I look forward to working with you and providing your pet with the compassionate, dependable care they deserve while you're away! I provide loving, reliable pet care in your home using your pet's own supplies to help keep their routine as normal as possible. I use the food, treats, toys, bedding, leashes, litter, medications, and any other pet essentials you provide, so I don't bring my own pet supplies. This helps your pet stay comfortable in their familiar environment while you're away. I live in a quiet, small neighborhood with about 0.75 acres of yard space and keep a clean, tidy home with plenty of room for pets to roam and relax. If boarding or daycare is arranged at my home, I will use any pet supplies you provide to maintain your pet's routine and comfort. Whether I'm caring for your pet in your home or mine, I'll follow your instructions closely and treat your pet like family, giving them plenty of attention, exercise, and affection.

“I have asked Mary Ann to help with the care of our family dog twice now and both times she was responsive with booking, cleaning up an accident inside the house, giving meds and showing up in time frames requested. We are really grateful for her help and service.”

About: I've been taking care of animals for quite some time now! I have two senior dogs myself and snakes. I look forward to meeting you both! I usually have a routine with my senior puppies, therefore creating one that suits your dog's needs will be no problem at all! I'm flexible at the moment since it's summertime. I will follow the safety protocols! If there are any additional instructions or care needed that will be applied to the routine as well. Ensuring all doors and windows are locked while all food is put away.

“Thank you for giving our pups so much love!”

About: I grow up with animals since I born. As a trainer, my close circle always trusts me to take care their pets. I am an influencer (400K followers, you can check how legit and trustworthy I am, cuz I am partnering with worldwide companies & showing my peaceful daily life), so I am creating my own schedule. Animals are my true passion & they all are my babies to me! I love them all so I choose to be a professional pet sitter. I have extensive experience with animals. For their separation anxiety I prefer to watch them in their own environment. Since I was a teenager, I was helping street dogs & cats to found homes. I took classes, and I learned how to take care animals. I learned about proper diet, housing, and medical care for variety of animals. I do have lot of experience with other animals as well as dogs & cats. I am super familiar with bunnies, turtles, chickens, cows, goats, sheeps, ducks, birds especially since I am a kid, I spent my holidays at my father’s farms. Your pets will stay happily entertained to have the best Pawsome VIP Vacation! We will have so much fun together with your dearies! I want to make sure you will be so happy and at peace leaving your pup with me; with their new best friend! I welcome meet & greets at parks, but they are not required. I can do long walks, plays, and every other needings for our dearest animals! I guarantee it will be a Dog Gone GOOD Time! I am home and at parks all of the time with All My Dearie Guest Paws and I love it! This is my full time job, and my day centers around their care, safety, health, entertainment, and much happiness in the most hygienic PawsInn! I am a full time pet sitter & that is the only way how I can see possible to do pet sitting job proper. I can fully supervise “kids” and make sure they all good and happy ;) Kindly give a bath to your most lovely puppies before giving them to me pretty please. Otherwise I need to give bath & grooming for my dearie guest paws. I will charge it. I have a fenced front yard, backyard at PawsInn, so l am supervising dearly puppies all the time, even when they are having fun at my garden. We shall do long walks, plays at the safest neighborhood parks, and fenced football fields constantly. My favorite park is next to my home, and it is our favorite because I can safely let few puppies run there leash free since this park all fenced up.

About: I understand the various and complex needs of dogs of different breeds, ages, sizes, and reactivity. As someone with a high energy large breed dog I have specific experience with dogs that need a little more to get their energy out. I am confident that I will be more than able to get your pup that care that it needs to be happy and healthy. I am a college student that is currently home for the summer. I have open availability and should be able to accommodate almost any busy schedule so your pet can get the care it requires. Your dogs safety is my number one priority. I would love to hear any specific needs that your pet may have and will do everything in my power to accommodate them. I have experience with very large/strong dogs as well as reactive or high energy pups. My goal is to create a walk that meets the specific requirements of your dog and ensures that they are safe and comfortable.

“Heather jumped in at the last minute for a dog walk and dinner time prep routine. Her communication was trustworthy and even included a walk photo!”

About: Hi there! I'm a college student on summer break with tons of free time and a huge love for animals! I've grown up around dogs and pets my whole life and have always enjoyed caring for them. Whether your pet is full of energy or more of a cuddle bug, I'm here to make sure they feel happy, safe, and loved while you're away. I'm very active and would be thrilled to take your dog on adventures such as beach walks, redwood hikes, or just fun neighborhood strolls. I’m reliable, attentive, and always happy to match your pet’s needs, whether that means extra playtime, lots of snuggles, or sticking to a specific routine. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, overnight care, or just keeping your pet company during the day. With my flexible schedule and love for animals I’d be honored to care for your pet like they’re my own. I have a two year old pitbull named Alfred who is a very active pup. I try to take him on hikes to the river or to the beach most days. My girlfriend also has two dogs who I help to care for when I can. I have a very open summer with lots of free time and I would love to spend that time with your animals. I care for each pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable in any environment. I’ll stick closely to their usual routine to help them feel at ease. I’m happy to take your dog on as many walks—or runs!—as they need, and I’m great at following specific instructions, whether it’s feeding times, medication, or special routines. Every pet is unique, and I’m here to make sure their needs are met with care and attention.

About: I love dogs and I love taking them out and about on walks! I have taken care of many dogs from the age of 2 to 16. My most recent experience includes taking care of senior dogs. I am currently a teacher on summer break so I have lots of time on my hands to dog sit and take dogs on walks! I take care of pets in clients homes by ensuring the dog has all of its needs met. I always make sure to spend extra quality time with the dog if I noticed that it is feeling sad that its owners are away.

“Dawn was very quick to respond to our request for dog walking and able to meet with us prior for a meet and greet. She did awesome with our little guy! She is very accommodating and has a great personality!”
