Dog Walkers in Glenridge, CA

About: I have experience with different dog sizes and breeds. My girl who died recently was an American Akita. She lived a full life with me. I know puppy to senior care. I’m available for full-service boarding in my home. I’m open to afternoon and evening walks. I WFH much of the time. My schedule is more flexible than many. I really enjoy outings with dogs. I own my home. It’s a condo. Minimalist decor. Tile floor. Dog-friendly door. Not messy. I welcome your dog bed, toys, and anything else your girl or boy needs. I do have emergency supplies. I don’t leave dogs alone much. Dogs that aren’t destructive or prone to dangerous anxious behaviors don’t need to be crated. I have a lot of outdoor space. I’m close to Glen Canyon Park and more. I have a car, so I can get around easily and quickly.

“Joey was very communicative, confident, and professional, and ready to keep Kaia occupied during her walk. I could tell Kaia had a great time with her! Would definitely rebook. Thank you!”

About: I've loved animals my whole life and naturally connect with both dogs and cats. If I'm at a party, there's a good chance you'll find me hanging out with the pet instead of the people. I had a cat, Nellie, for 11 years, and I've also lived with and helped care for an untrained puppy for two years, so I'm comfortable with the patience and consistency young dogs need. What sets me apart is that I genuinely enjoy earning an animal's trust and understanding their individual personality, helping them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you're away. I have a part time job right now so I have lots of time to play with your fuzzy friends. I also love exploring the city and would love to be joined by your pups! I am patient, respectful, attentive, and responsible, and I enjoy making sure each pet gets the attention, exercise, and affection they need. Whether it's taking dogs for walks, playing with energetic puppies and kitties, or spending calming time with everyone, I take pride in treating every pet as if they were my own. I have house sat many times before, and have 3 years of babysitting experience, so I have been in unfamiliar environments and am respectful and responsible.

About: Hello! I’ve been walking and sitting animals for more than a decade, and love making new furry friends. I’ve cared for puppies and older dogs, high-energy and anxious animals. I have a wily, wonderful pug-mix at home who loves a chance to socialize, too. I currently work from home, for myself, so I have room to take on clients in the mornings, afternoons, or evenings. Weekends and weekdays both work! I approach all new animals with sensitivity and respect for their space and needs. I love getting to know a dog and learning their personality traits, favorite routes, and funny quirks. This helps me get to know what they need, when.

“Anna is an incredible dog walker, she’s super sweet and has been a lifesaver as i’ve started work! My dog loves his walks with her and I can’t recommend her enough for anyone else that needs help with getting their dog some long walks!”

About: I have worked in dog hotels as an overnight caretaker (no humans, just dogs), I have been a dog walker and a dog owner for nearly my whole life. I trained our family service dog (recently passed) on my own and got her professionally certified. I am home everyday as a homeschooling mom. Your pet is a part of the family while they are here. My kids and I are a chill group, Dogs are a natural fit. I have a small deck in the back, my kids and I go on walks constantly, the dogs are welcome on the beds and on the couches. My home is their home.

“Super communicative and helpful! Thanks Marie!”

“This was our first time working with a dog walker and Lani did a wonderful job meeting us. Playing with our pup and walking her around the neighborhood. Lani was very respectful and helpful. Will definitely be booking her again!”

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. I’m available for house sitting, walks, and drop-ins throughout the week and weekends. I make sure pets stay on their normal routine with feeding, walks, playtime, and plenty of affection. I treat every home and pet with respect and care. I follow the pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special instructions. I always keep pets safe, secure, and supervised, and I’m happy to send regular updates and photos so owners feel comfortable while they’re away.

About: I’m a 42-year-old gay dog lover who recently said goodbye to my own pup after 13 incredible years together. Caring for my dog has always been one of the best parts of my life, and I genuinely love getting to know every breed, quirk, zoomie level, and cuddle style out there. Pet care has been part of my daily routine for years. I recently lost my dog after 13 wonderful years together, and before that we took at least three walks a day — everything from quick neighborhood strolls to longer adventures exploring different parts of San Francisco together. I genuinely miss having a little shadow by my side, so caring for and walking dogs still feels like a natural and meaningful part of my everyday life. I love getting to know each dog’s personality, energy, and favorite routines. I focus on making pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in both my home and theirs. I follow each dog’s routine closely — including walks, feeding, medications, playtime, and cuddle preferences — while giving them plenty of attention, affection, exercise, and calm energy. I also love sending photo updates so owners know their pups are happy and well cared for.

“Michelle was wonderful to work with, as well as my dog now considers her his fun-auntie. She communicated well, was timely, and friendly. Additionally, on another occasion when she watched my dog at her home, she was able to train him to be calm around cats! A miracle patience fairy kind and caring to all sorts of beings. Highly recommend her services!”

About: I've grown up with dogs of all sizes and have hands-on experience training and caring for a wide range of breeds and temperaments. I currently have two dogs of my own, a 14 year old Pekingese and a 8 year old Husky, which has given me daily experience managing both small and large dogs with very different needs and personalities. Whether your dog is energetic and active or prefers a slower pace, I'm comfortable providing safe, attentive care, exercise, and companionship. My background with dogs big and small allows me to adapt to each pet's unique routine and help them feel comfortable and well cared! My flexible schedule allows me to give your pets lots of attention, love, playtime, and exercise. I'm committed to making sure they feel happy, comfortable, and cared for every step of the way! My number one priority is making sure your pets feel comfortable and secure in their own home. I understand that every pet adjusts at their own pace, so I give them the time and space they need to build trust and feel at ease. I follow their usual routines as closely as possible, whether that means walks, playtime, feeding schedules, or quiet companionship. My goal is to provide attentive, loving care while helping them feel safe, relaxed, and happy in their familiar environment.

About: I have babysat: 1) a medium sized 50 lb hound mix dog for a month at a time every year for 13 years (over the course of its life time from when she was a puppy to death) whose personality was very energetic and anxious. It needed a lot of exercise everyday, stimulated play, and long walks which I happily enjoyed! But she also needed to be watched carefully to ensure she didn’t scare anybody by playfully jumping on them. She would tug a lot during walks and would get excited seeing other dogs but I’ve always managed to calmly steer her away if aggression showed or if the other person or dog she was meeting showed signs of being uncomfortable. This dog always stayed at my place when I babysat her. Made sure she was fed on time twice a day and provided fresh water everyday. 2) two cats at a month at a time for the past 4 years. Stayed at the owner’s place every time. Had to be fed at certain times twice a day, gave them treats throughout the day and attention whenever they requested it. Sometimes I would initiate the contact but if the cats weren’t feeling it, they would communicate it and I would stop. They were indoor cats so I also made sure that any windows that were open were secure and they couldn’t slip through. Had no issues of escaped cats. 3) an energetic 8 year old pomsky and an 18 yr old cat for 10 days. House-sat the owner’s place the entire time where I had to walk the dog 4 times every day at a set schedule and feed them both & provide medication to the cat at set times. The Pomsky was very energetic so also took the time during the afternoon to play with her when she had the zoomies. And have the cat tummy rubs and butt scratches whenever she requested it. 4) a large 50 lb, 2 year old, Old English Sheepdog (named Cura). House-sat & dog-sat Cura for 10 days in Los Angeles, CA. Highly energetic who needed a lot of exercise everyday. Very obedient and could be taken off leash. But I always establish a level of trust and learn the dog’s mannerisms before taking them off leash in the park or around the apartment/house block. Cura also had a tendency to be scared of aggressive dogs or loud noises so I always maintained a level of reassurance and safety with her. Also had to be aware of the high temperatures in LA (given the summer time), hence I’d walk her early in the morning and late at night. 5) a 5 yr old, 25 lb, hound whippet mixed dog named Phoebe - house sat and babysat her for 12 days. Highly anxious who needed to be administered an anxiety pill every morning and needed constant attention and long walks. 6) Hamsters - babysat them for a week at a time for friends whenever they went out of town. Fed and cleaned the box. Would occasionally bring it out of its cage to let it roam around the room in its ball. 7) I have my own pet - a red eared slider turtle who I claim to be my aquatic dog 😉. He is 18 years old and I got him when he was just the size of a quarter. But he gets excited to see me whenever I enter the room and will follow me in the apartment when I let him out to walk around. He can also recognize me out of a group of people! 8) I have a ton of plants that I have grown in the past 6 years - huge monstera (from a 1 foot baby to now a 7 ft giant with 30 inch wide leaves), verraccusum, constellation monstera, cacti, pothos, glorosium, etc. I’m currently unemployed (taking a hiatus from being an accountant in the corporate world) so I have all the time to take care of your pet(s). Available anytime to feed, walk, play, and assist in providing medication. I have a pet turtle that I’ve had for 18 years that I have by a sunny window. But every other day, I’ll let him out in the apartment to walk around and explore (but he will often just follow me around😉). I currently live in an apartment that doesn’t allow dogs or cats so over the last few years, I’ve always taken care of pets at the owner’s place. Either living at their place or coming to their place at set times to feed and/or walk their pets.

“Mick was great. He came through for me after my initial sitter cancelled last minute. This was my first time using Rover, and Mick made it a smooth, easy process.”

“I can’t recommend Surekha as a walker highly enough! She is incredibly reliable and genuinely so sweet with my dog. It’s clear how much she cares, my pup is always happy and well-exercised. Most importantly, she is trustworthy, which gives me total peace of mind knowing my dog is in such good hands.”

Virginia K.

“I had a fantastic experience with João! He was incredibly easy-going, friendly, and most importantly, loving to my pet. João was there for us when we needed him the most, and I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. Highly recommend!”

“Five stars just isn’t enough for these great walkers. They took care of my dog while I was sitting with my wife in labor for three days. My dog was sick, and apparently there were some issues I wouldn’t even have known they did such a great job”

“Chelsea was easy to communicate with, very responsive and great with our little Donny. Highly recommend her for dog walking and dog sitting. We'll be booking again!”

Adam W.

“Highly recommend! Joyce was wonderful, reliable, kind, and great with our pets. She took our dog on long, 1-hour walks while my husband and I were working, and she also has experience with cats, helping administer eye drop medication for us. We really appreciated all her help.”

Katerina A.

“Lauren was great with my dog! I wasn't worried at all about Violet while I was gone, even when she got an upset stomach and felt sick. Lauren communicated well, asked good questions when I showed her the ropes, and clearly responded to Violet's needs. I would recommend her to anyone!”
