Dog Walking Glenoak Hills

About: My headline is probably my most asked question anywhere I go lol. My family has had a multitude of different pets over the years, so I actually know how to care for a lot of animals including an African bullfrog if you can believe that. I've also been house sitting/dog sitting for friends and family for years. I'm also really good with cautious dogs, I know how to make a dog who doesn't like strangers warm up to me. It might take a little while but eventually they love me. As far as walks go I love walks and who better to do it with than a dog? But I'm also conscientious of heat, where to walk on hot days so their paws don't burn and water for us to drink. I have a decent amount of control of my work time. So I am able to take breaks when needed to take animals for quick walks, playtime, and of course potty breaks. My goal is not to leave animals without these types of interactions for more than 5 hours at a time. Of course for special needs animals and puppies this can be appropriately adjusted. I strive to keep animals at ease by keeping their normal routine. So I often ask about what the animals normal day looks like and plan accordingly.

“Angeline was incredibly sweet and patient with our dog Zeus. She really tried her best with him and was always kind and understanding, even when he was being stubborn and didn’t want to go for walks. I appreciate her patience and positive attitude throughout the whole experience. She clearly cares about the dogs she works with. Thank you, Angeline! 🩵🐾”

“Kristine was great! It’s always hard leaving your dog babies but she had my mind at ease while I was away. On time. Quick responses. Photo updates. I’ll be rebooking!”

“Andrea was absolutely amazing! She took such great care of my furry babies while I was away, and I couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter. She kept me updated with pictures and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind knowing they were happy, safe, and well cared for. I’ll definitely be booking with her again for future trips. Thank you so much, Andrea, for everything you did for our babies ! 🫶🏻”

About: Hi! I have been caring for pets for over 20 years. Currently, I have a 2 year old 60-lb Boxer dog and I also had 3 Shih Tzus for 16 years so I am used to large and small dogs, energetic pups and senior dogs. I’ve taken classes with trainers that trained with Cesar Milan focused on dog psychology and calm confidence. I can care for senior dogs and administer eye/ear drops, medication, and gentle handling. I can also care for playful or large dogs and help get their energy out. I am available for short or long walks, short or long overnight stays, house sitting, companionship (and cuddles!), bathing, and drop ins. I have a flexible schedule and reliable transportation. I’m available for requests to care for your pets and am excited to meet your fur babies! I am very aware of my surroundings and doors/gates to ensure dogs to not escape or run off. I am diligent in making sure they don’t have something in their mouths that they shouldn’t. I have a high energy 2 year old boxer that I have crate trained and am used to taking all necessary precautions to make sure pets are safe and secure.

About: Dogs have been my life's work for over 15 years — every breed, every age, every personality. My background covers both sides of the leash: I worked at a training and boarding facility and at a veterinary clinic, which means I read body language early, handle high-energy and nervous dogs with the same calm, and know when something is "just an off day" versus something that needs a vet. I'm comfortable with feeding and medication routines, puppies who are still learning the rules, and senior dogs who need patience and a slower pace. I reinforce the training you've already put in, so your dog doesn't come home having forgotten it. I've been through real medical emergencies, and I stay calm and act fast — that's what you're actually hiring when you leave your dog with someone. Most of all, I genuinely love dogs. Yours won't be a booking to me. They'll be family for as long as they're in my care. I am lucky in the fact that my career is remote and I get to make my own schedule. So I am open and willing to work with clients on the time and days they are needing help with! I treat every pet and home with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I follow feeding, medication, exercise, and training instructions closely, keep doors and gates secure, maintain a clean environment, and provide regular updates. With my veterinary-clinic & 911 Dispatch experience , I also know how to stay calm and respond appropriately if an emergency arises.

“Anthony jumped into action when we needed a last minute dog walker when going out of town. He was very communicative and clearly enjoyed the time with our pup. Looking forward to booking him again and knowing Finley is in good hands!”

About: Hello 👋🏻 My name is Kaylee and I’ve been a professional pet sitter for about 5 years now. Over the course of those 5 years I’ve cared for all of the following animals: dogs, cats, birds, fish, snakes, turtles, lizards, hamsters, rabbits and horses. I’m in college getting an animal science degree and I’ve worked with a wide age range of animals. From puppies all the way to senior dogs and kittens all the way to elderly cats. *please know that while my listed prices are accurate additional surcharges may apply. (All prices will be disclosed before booking) I have a lot of availability for pet care in my schedule, I do have college classes I must attend and the occasional appointment with these being non-negotiable blocks of time I must leave the clients home to attend (which will be discussed ahead of time). However aside from that I have a plethora of time available to dedicate solely to your pet(s). *jobs that are “constant care” and/or have strict rules regarding how long the pet(s) can be left alone WILL incur a surge charge. I haven’t had a pet escape or get lost on my watch yet, and I don’t plan to start now. My childhood dog escaped once as kid, and even thought he was quickly found, it made me realize the horror of potentially losing a pet. As a result, I take pet safety very seriously. I will not walk a dog without a leash. I always double and triple check that doors are closed/locked (when appropriate).

About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up in a home with several pets, primarily Golden Retrievers, and had the privilege of helping raise two litters of puppies. Those early experiences taught me the value of patience, consistency, and creating a loving environment where dogs can flourish. When I was sixteen, our family dog welcomed a litter of eleven puppies, and I was actively involved throughout her pregnancy, the delivery, and the puppies’ early development. One of those puppies became my soul dog, deepening my appreciation for the extraordinary bond between dogs and their families. Over the years, I’ve gained knowledge with caring for puppies, adult dogs, seniors, and pets recovering from surgery. Above all, I make it a priority to help every pet feel protected, nurtured and content while maintaining the routine they’re accustomed to. Whether we’re exploring a neighborhood trail, playing with their favorite toys, practicing positive reinforcement with owner-approved treats, or simply enjoying quiet cuddle time, I strive to make every pet feel like they’re spending time with a trusted friend—not just a sitter. Building trust is one of the most rewarding parts of pet sitting. Every dog deserves patience, kindness, and individualized attention, and I take the time to create a genuine connection with each one. My hope is that you’ll return home to a settled companion with the confidence that they were treated like a cherished member of my own family. I currently have open availability as I am working instacart and obtaining my Yoga teacher training certification. If you need someone reliable and loving to take care of your fur baby, I will be there! I understand that every pet and every family has unique routines and preferences. My priority is to provide care that aligns with your pet’s normal schedule so they feel safe and loved while you’re away. Whether you need drop-in visits, walks, or overnight care, I’m happy to accommodate your needs. I’ll treat your home with the same respect I would my own by keeping it clean, tidy, and secure. My goal is for you to return to a happy pet and a home that’s just as you left it.

About: I have had a love and respect for all animals for as long as I can remember. I grew up on a small farm with chickens, goats, peacocks, ducks, one pig, and family dogs and cats. I remember waking up early before school to go feed all the animals with my grandma every morning(she lived with me and my parents). We’d take in every stray cat that wondered on our property. My grandma and i would catch the stray cats in a cage and take them to the vet. The baby goats would occasionally be rejected by their mothers which resulted in me and my grandma having to bottle feed the rejected baby. I truly had a blessed childhood to be surrounded by animals. Our first family dog was named Pepper and she is a Flat Coated Retriever. My baby passed over the rainbow bridge this past May and i was destroyed but she gave us the most amazing 16 years of her life being the most perfect angel well behaved dog. When i turned 14 i asked for a puppy and my parents said yes as long as i understood the puppy would be my responsibly since they both work and at this point in my time my grandma had passed 2 years prior. I said i understood and they got me an Alaskan Malamute puppy. I love him dearly but geese he was a stubborn trouble maker. I worked with him every day to potty train him and cate train him until we were comfortable with him free roaming the house. I also taught him tricks and how to walk by my side when we went on walks and hikes. He grew to the 120 pound gentle giant he his now. He lives in norcal with my parents while i’m here in socal for college. I currently do mainly remote social media marketing work. However i do have to go in person to my work randomly throughout the month but not super often. I live in a house with a fenced yard and six other female roommates. I love animals and believe attention and enrichment is very important when it comes to pet care and so I will do my very best to make sure your pet feels cared for and comfortable whether that’s in my home or yours or simply on a walk!

About: I've been working with animals for 5 years, and as of right now I am now currently working at a general practice animal hospital. I currently work full time, four days a week with 10 hours shifts, and I receive my work schedule a month in advance. I’m generally available on my days off, after work and on Sundays. I’m also able to bring pets to my work (if need be). I understand that every pet and family has different needs, so I’m always willing to do my best to accommodate special scheduling requests whenever possible. Even if a date or time doesn’t appear available on my calendar, please feel free to reach out and ask! I may be able to adjust my schedule or make arrangements that work for you and your pet. My goal is to provide dependable, and attentive care while making things as convenient as possible for both you and your pet. I treat every pet in my care as if they were part of my own family. I want them to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re with me. I enjoy spending quality time with them, whether that means relaxing at home, playing outside, going for walks, or visiting the park for some exercise. I also work as a veterinary assistant, which has given me hands on experience caring for pets with a variety of medical and special care needs. I’m comfortable administering medications as directed, including oral and injectable medications, as well as providing subcutaneous fluids and other routine supportive care when appropriate. I always follow each pet parent’s instructions and routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise and any special care needs. Most importantly, I make sure every pet receives plenty of attention, affection, and supervision while in my care.

About: I have always had a love for dogs. Growing up we had two black labs (big big dogs) and I would do everything with them and just took a lot of pride In making sure they were always taken care of emotionally and physically. Since getting older I have loved taking on rolls of helping family friends with watching or walking their dogs and giving them the same treatment I would give to my own. I currently just moved to the Temecula area so at the moment I do not have a job so I am totally free and open to take on the roll of caring for multiple dogs ! I understand that all dogs are different and some just need a little more one on one play time so that would never be an issue (would never be in a rush)! I also love going on long walks as it’s a form of exercise for me so your dog will never get a bare minimum walk being in my hands:) I treat any dog like it’s my own and I understand what it’s like to leave your dog with a stranger and be so scared of the what if’s so I take a lot of pride in communicating with the owner and sending pics to let them know their baby is in good hands, having fun, and being cared for as they wished! I also encourage cameras inside clients homes because I know that you can never get enough extra reassurance and it’s always good to make sure your animal is genuinely being taken care of as the care taker says! So if you have cameras in your home I will never have an issue ! I love to make sure both me and client are comfortable for their pets best interest!

“Don’t know how we survived without you!”

About: My name is Kristina, and I love pets! I believe that our pets are our reflection. I think you've noticed this tendency while walking :) Unfortunately, my husband is allergic to animals' hair, so we can't keep them at home. I realize my love for animals through the service and help other "pet parents". I'm working part time, so I'm ready to help you with your beloved pets. I'm also happy to help you on weekends or when you have a family gathering in another city. I understand that you as a pet parent rely on me, so I always do my best to keep pets in safety, feed them on time, play if they want, just pet, sometimes it's the only needed: to show love.

“Erick is great with dogs. Calm and very patient. My dog was so happy when I got home. 5/5 would recommend!”

About: I have been trusted to take care of others’ pets for approximately ten years now. I absolutely adore animals and think they deserve the world, so your pet’s wants and needs are my number one priority! If my prices are not in your range, I am happy to negotiate something that is fair for us both. I am a new nursing student who is focusing on school right now. I have plenty of time throughout the week to walk, bathe, feed, and play with your fur baby! I will go above and beyond to make sure your pets are comfortable while you’re away. I am willing to check in on your pets as many times as you feel necessary, or even stay with them throughout the day. I always say “treat others how you would want to be treated,” so I hold the same expectations to myself that I would have someone who was watching my pet.

About: I don't just love dogs; I know how to take care of them responsibly. As much as working with animals is enjoyable and fun for me, I am aware of the responsibility and skill level required to maintain a safe and healthy environment for your dog (or cat). I also know how hard it can be to leave your furry family members behind with a new person, so I'd love to reassure you with daily texts and photos of how our visit is going. I'm a former animal care professional with experience as a vet tech, pet store assistant manager, and groomer, and truly have an interest in the health and well being of your pet. I'm the type of person that double checks and will pay attention to the small details in your pet's behavior and appearance. And of course, I absolutely love dogs. My favorite thing about them is their ability to break up the seriousness of a moment by being absolutely silly! I've had the chance to meet dogs of all types and temperaments, and am comfortable walking energetic, leash aggressive, or nervous dogs. I understand how important exercise and quality time are in making your pup happy. My resume and references are always available upon request. I’m currently working part-time and will have plenty of time to be at home with your fur baby. My hours are flexible and we can work on setting up a schedule specific to your pets’ needs. I mainly care for pets in your home, using guidelines you provide me with. I’m open to boarding requests but do not currently offer this service on short notice.

About: I have experience with walks, overnights, and many different breeds of babies! I have taken care of elderly dogs that need medicine and extra care to young, playful puppies that need extra attention and of course cats! I love gaining my own exercise with dogs, they motivate me to get out and about. I am happy to stay at your home. I have 2 dogs myself that loved and spoiled! I’m excited to meet your pets and see if I can help your family by taking care of your pets for any period of time. See you soon! I work Monday-Friday 9-5, but have a very flexible schedule. I can drop in multiple times a day for check ins and walks. I live in Murrieta and work in Temecula. I love being able to end my work day with a walk with a dog. When in your home I like to be very respectful and caring. I like to leave your space just as you left it or better.

“Krysta has been dependable, reliable, and great with our two high energy dogs. She goes above and beyond to make sure the dogs are taken care of and get the proper attention they deserve. I highly recommend Krysta.”
