Dog Walking Glen Frazer

About: I offer calm, personalized care in a quiet home where your dog is treated like family, not one of many in a busy boarding facility or a home with multiple dogs. I typically host one household at a time, so your dog gets my full attention, genuine affection, and all the cuddles they can handle. My home is the right fit for friendly dogs who love companionship, walks, and settling into a peaceful routine. I'm especially drawn to dogs who thrive with one-on-one attention rather than the noise and energy of a busy multi-dog environment. I'm certified in Pet CPR, Healing Touch for Animals, and Reiki. And beyond the credentials, I'm deeply attuned to each dog's personality and energy. That attunement is what helps them settle in quickly and feel genuinely at ease. My connection to animals runs deep. I spent five years volunteering at Lindsay Wildlife Rehabilitation Center, working in both the mammal department and wildlife hospital with injured and recovering animals. That experience sharpened my understanding of animal behavior and reinforced something I already believed: animals feel safety before they understand it. My goal is always to create that feeling from the moment your dog arrives! Because I work from home, pets in my care are rarely left alone for long periods and receive plenty of attention, walks, and companionship throughout the day. When pets stay in my home, they become part of a calm and comfortable daily routine. I primarily host dogs from 1 household at a time so each pet receives plenty of individual attention. Dogs here enjoy daily walks, playtime, and relaxed downtime, and I’m home much of the day since I work from home. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality and needs so they feel safe and settled. For drop-in visits or walks in a client’s home, I follow the pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding, fresh water, walks, litter care for cats, playtime, and companionship. I’m happy to send photo updates so owners know their pets are doing well.

“What a wonderful person! I was very worried because my son's dog is unruly and wants to eat other dogs. Kyla had the dog walking along as peaceful as can be. She was truely a blessing.”

About: I’ve owned dogs and cats for all of my life and have extensive hands-on experience caring for animals. I regularly pet sit and dog walk for friends and family, including overnight stays and longer-term care when they’re away. My experience includes feeding, walking, administering medications, cleaning up after pets, providing exercise and playtime, and keeping pets on their normal routines. I’m comfortable with both dogs and cats of different ages, sizes, and personalities, and I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I genuinely love animals and understand how important it is to find someone you trust with your pets. I treat every pet as if they were my own and strive to provide dependable, attentive care while giving owners peace of mind. I have a pretty flexible schedule and can usually work around your pet’s needs. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and overnight stays, and I always try to keep pets on their normal routine as much as possible. I know how important consistency is, especially when their owners are away. I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life and regularly pet sit for friends and family. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, giving medication, cleaning up after pets, and overnight care. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own and keep you updated so you can have peace of mind.

“This is my second time with her and my dog likes her and the walk. I think this time I'm going to set up recurring walks with her. Great job! I definitely recommend Merlette!”

About: I grew up as the daughter of a professional dog trainer—my mother—and have carried on her love for all animals. I was taught how to handle reactive, nervous dogs with calm gentle confidence, keep high-energy dogs busy with engaging activities, and give mindful care of dogs that have any special needs. Dogs have been a part of my life since birth, including my 15 year old boy Chunk that is so disarming, he makes an excellent companion for even the most nervous dogs. I’ve gained a broad amount of experience as the go-to enthusiastic dog sitter for all my friends and family’s pets. I would love share a warm, welcoming home with your pet where nightly snuggles on the couch are the norm. I work from home so I can be as available as your dog needs. My partner also is home for most of the day, and only works in the evenings so one of us is almost always home. We live surrounded by trails and parks so your dog will have ample adventures during their stay. Every dog will be treated with the same love and care as if they were our own. We have a large fenced yard that they are free to roam, and a cozy home with dog beds everywhere. We allow dogs on couch and bed, though I can maintain any rules you have in your home for consistency. We do also have a cat so we cannot accept any dogs that are in any way aggressive towards cats or small critters.

“Great communication, extremely nice, and Oliver really liked you! Thank you so much!!”

About: Currently taking reservation for Labor Day!! Hello! My name is Hosana and I am currently an undergraduate college student at UCSD. I have loved animals for as long as I could remember! Growing up in a smaller home, I was never able to own a dog of my own, but being obsessed with animals, I wouldn't let this stop me from being around them an gaining as much experience as I could by taking care of pets for friends and family throughout my life. Eventually I started working at a local doggy daycare/ pet boarding facility in Walnut Creek known as, North Main Pet Lodge. I have about a year's worth of experience working professionally with a multitude of different dog breeds and taking care of their daily needs. I've worked with both dogs and cats, and other small animals such as hamsters, rabbits, and such and know how to administer medication, bathe, feed, and do other tasks related to pet care. Staying flexible and knowing how to deal with all sorts of situations is something I have come to be very acquainted with through my work experience. Communication is of big importance to me and making sure all pet parents stay informed throughout their stay away from their pets. Currently I am working on my finishing my degree online and no longer need to attend classes on campus. Therefore I will be in the bay area permanently and am looking to work with those who need the occasional sitter. Have been actively sitting for my clients since 2025. Please feel free to contact me and help this college student out with your business, as I also look forward to spending time with your pets! Thanks for reading :) Currently taking online classes. Would be ideal for pet parents who want someone to be at the house often, but also able to step away for 1-4 hrs a few days of the weekdays. Weekends I am always available all day. Almost always at home for morning, afternoon potty breaks, evening, overnight. When in a client's home, the pet's safety and health are my number one concern. With my experience, I have learned several tricks that help with a variety of temperaments and personalities that each dog has. I also believe in being respectful of my client's homes and will take that very seriously. Overall, any specific concerns or lists can be communicated to me and I will make sure to keep an open line of communication.

“Raul has been so good with my dog Willow. I was worried she would have too much energy but he handles her perfectly. I never worry when she's with him. Willow looks forward to her walks each time!”

“Caroline! You were great with the two dogs we have. Thank you for being so flexible and kind with them. They truly loved you”

“Telena does an amazing job walking our 4-year-old collie with back and hip issues, even in our very hilly neighborhood. She’s very sensitive to signs that he needs to stop and head home, and I know that he enjoys his walks because he gets excited every time her car pulls up. She has a true gift with dogs!”

Sarah M.

“She was amazing!”

Aida C.

“Danielle is awesome! I’ve hired a lot of dog walkers and she always ends up walking my dog the furthest and getting him the most exercise.”

About: Hi, I’m Joe — a lifelong dog lover who treats every pup like my own… right down to the love, the cuddles, and the occasional meatball. I’m home all day, so your dog gets constant attention, companionship, and plenty of affection. My home is relaxed and dog-friendly, with a big, fully fenced yard for safe play, sniffing adventures, and stretching their legs. Inside, pups can lounge wherever they feel comfortable — the couch, their bed, or right next to us. At night, everyone’s welcome in the bedroom, whether they prefer their own spot or decide mine looks more comfortable. (It usually does.) Being home all day means your dog gets frequent potty breaks, a calm routine, and tons of quality time. I send regular photo updates so you can see exactly how well your pup is settling in. Along with boarding, I also offer drop-in visits, in-home sitting, and dog walking, giving you flexible and reliable care options. If you’re looking for someone who will genuinely love, spoil, and treat your dog like family — with all the comfort and maybe a meatball or two — I’d be honored to welcome them. I am home full-time, allowing me to provide constant supervision and care. Pet care seamlessly fits into my routine through regular walks, attention, and companionship. In my home, dogs enjoy a large fenced yard, supervised play, and full comfort—allowed on furniture, loved like family, and welcome to sleep beside us.

“Great walker! Christopher was communicative and on time. He was excellent with our energetic puppy with some leash pulling issues. He followed instructions and gave the report that all went well! He’s confident with dogs, especially if they need some training reinforcement. Would totally work with him again!”

Hayley S.

“Quincy is super high energy but Annie does a great job getting out the puppy energy. We are both delighted with her. She's always on time and takes good care of Q.”

About: Animals have always been part of my life, and looking after them is something I genuinely enjoy. I have been pet sitting for many years, for friends and family, and I treat every pet like one of my own. I look after cats, dogs, puppies, senior pets and small animals and offer drop-in visits, and dog walking in Benicia. I will keep you updated with photos and messages throughout, and I will stick to your pet's routine. I have cared for animals my whole life whether it be my own or for others. My volunteer work at the humane society, Suisun Wildlife Center, and International Bird Rescue has strengthened my passion of caring for pets. I would love to meet you and your pet before the first booking. I am newly retired and have a very flexible schedule. My availability will work around caring for my own fur babies. I live near a neighborhood park which I use for dog walking. I will be sure to understand your pet's individual needs and routine. I will do everything I can to foster a fun and enriching experience for your fur baby.
