Dog Walkers in Gonzales, CA

“Becky took great care of our girl. She sent pictures and regular updates to let us know how she was doing which made us feel really good. Caramel seemed really happy when we picked her up. We will definitely use Becky again when we need to go out out of town and can’t take our dog with us.”

About: Starting in high school I worked for an adoption center and have worked with animals ever since. From dogsitting, cat sitting, volunteering at the animal shelter, and more, I’ve always enjoyed being involved with animals. My main job is an online fitness coach and so I can work remotely due to that. For that reason I’m able to work with just about any schedule your animal may have. I’ve worked with elder dogs as well as puppies to help them maintain their usual routine. I’m also practiced in giving eye drops, medication, and insulin shots through my other pet sitting jobs I’ve done in the past. For me the most important thing is not breaking routine. I’m a creature of habit myself so I appreciate descriptive texts or notes that way I can help keep your animal in the same pattern as they would be if you were home.

“We have been very happy with Gabriel and his dog walking services. The dogs love him and are always happy to see him.”

I’m open for contact throughout the day while caring for pets.

About: Breeds I have taken care of: German shepherd Great Dane Golden Doodle Great Dane/Mastiff Hi! I’m Marissa — dog walker, house sitter, and part-time therapist for a German Shepherd named Kai, who has decided I’m his entire personality now. Kai started as a very reactive, chaotic dog at first, but now he’s out here heeling, minding his business around other dogs, and acting like he’s training me. He’s still protective but he’s not as reactive to other animals. So yes, I’m totally comfortable with big breeds, reactive dogs, anxious dogs, and dogs who are a little… dramatic. 🐾 Please note: Bookings that require extended travel or constant care may require a rate adjustment. I’m calm, patient, and I actually pay attention to your pet’s vibe. Whether your furry friend wants zoomies, snuggles, or a silent stare-down from across the room — I can match their energy. If you want someone reliable who will love your pet, hype them up, and send you funny updates, I got you. Also Kai wanted me to tell you he approves this message. I am a part time student so I’m mostly free on weekends. I spend most of my free time either studying, walking Kai, or going to the gym, so I can easily squeeze in some pet care/house sitting. In a client’s home, I focus on keeping your pet’s routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow your instructions closely — feeding schedule, walks, potty breaks, medications, and any house rules you have. I give lots of positive reinforcement, calm company, and plenty of play or enrichment depending on what your pet enjoys. I also keep your home tidy, double-check doors and gates, and keep you updated with photos and messages so you always know how your pet is doing.
