Dog Walkers in Hams, CA

“As reluctant as I was to allow a stranger to come into my home, I was that much more hesitant to allow a stranger to walk my three dogs, in the end I knew I had no other choice but to hire someone due to my work schedule. While searching I came across Jef’s profile and I decided to go with him in booking dog walking for my three dogs. Jef even came to meet my dogs before he was to begin walking them the following day. From the initial message to the first time meeting, Jef maintained great communication and updated me each day after their walks. Jef definitely has something about him that made my dogs very comfortable around him. He quickly gained their trust and vice versa. Jef is also very persistent and knowledgeable in training dogs and helping to improve any bad leash habits. I will definitely be booking Jef for any future needs and I would definitely recommend him to anyone with pets.”

About: I was raised on a ranch with all kinds of pets. I can't recall life without dogs we are so fortunate to have them in our lives they are unconditional in the love and affection they give . I was in dog rescue for 21 years as a foster. I had 7 dogs all were what was considered not able to be put in a home do to behavior issues the only option for these dogs was to be euthanized so I kept the rejects and had to stop rescue as to the inn was full and I still dog sat for the dogs that had been at my home until a new home was found . I have extensive experience with all types of dogs . I have a cat who pretends dogs do not exist so she just stays away, my cat was a ferel rescue cat and is now a fat and sassy house cat . I have a large home so have part of it sectioned off where her litter box and food are to keep dogs out of both . If I house sit I have experience with farm animals for feeding. I garden so watering is in my range. I'm home 75% of the time so I'm available. I may run a errand but that's about it . If weather permits and you have a road dog car rides with me are perfect. I spend a lot of my time cooking and blogging I cook for seniors in my community. If I'm gardening outside the dogs are welcome to be with me. I have a double lot so plenty of play room . Half of it is fenced for plenty of play room . I have a crate if needed . Your dog will have free roaming access in my home and allowed on the furniture . If I'm sitting your pet in your home it's your home and your rules that I follow . I have passed my Background check here on Rover to take care of your fur babies. I have passed my 2nd Government Background check to take care of children. I have passed my 3rd Goverment Background check to take care of elders . The point is I want you to be assured your fur babies are safe with me .

“Chelsea is great! She responds quickly, shows up on time, is flexible, and has worked with me to address my dog’s needs. My dog takes a while to warm up to people, but she felt comfortable with Chelsea almost immediately and I did as well. If you are in the Jackson area I highly recommend Chelsea as a dog walker.”

About: I'm capable of administering medications including shots if needed. I had a cat that had diabetes and he had to have shots 2 X per day. I've owned dogs, cats, guinea pigs, and horses. I know how hard it is to find good care where you can go on your trips and feel comfortable that your furbabies are taken care of. I'm trustworthy and will take care of your pets as if they were my own. I'm happily retired and looking for something to do that will bring me joy and help out pet owners. My availability is open for all days and nights. I will take as good of care of them as I have taken care of my own. I love animals of all kinds and look forward to being able to care for them in their own space where they are most comfortable as needed.

About: I have been owned by cats and dogs in the past. I recently transferred with my job from the East Coast to Utah, and now reside in Northern California and currently frequent the Humane Society to visit with the cats and dogs waiting for homes. Pet Sitting - I am able to walk them/feed in the mornings and after 5 p.m. Monday-Wednesday and Thursday - Sundays more frequently. I do prefer overnight pet sitting. I am reliable, responsible and have a "knack" with most pets. I do need to know about any behavioral issues (likes to chew on things that aren't their toys for example). Do they do well with new people? I prefer not to sit pit bull terriers, but mixed breeds I don't have a problem with.

I'm comfortable with administering medications, following special diets, and sticking to detailed routines to ensure your pet feels safe and happy in your absence.

I take the time to understand each pet’s routine, preferences, and any special needs to create a secure, calm environment. In a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all instructions closely to ensure their pet feels safe in a familiar setting. If I’m caring for pets in my own home, I provide a clean, pet-friendly space that’s fully secured and free of hazards. I supervise interactions, keep a consistent routine, and always provide plenty of love, enrichment, and downtime to help pets feel at ease. I also keep communication open with regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is in great hands.

About: I’ve carried for Dogs, Cats, Horses, and many other family pets my whole life. My family says I have a special talent for animals of all kinds. I’ve trained all of my dogs, at home and through classes. I am patient and gentle, kind hearted, and so much more. If you give me the opportunity to handle you furry friends, I am sure to guarantee they will be in the best care possible. I am currently attending SJVC for Veterinary Technician with the schedule of Mondays and Wednesdays from 7:15am-12pm. My schedule should not come in the way of me caring for your fur babies. When I am carrying for your pets in your home, I am always respectful to your home and your belongings. I will always follow your home rules and if any situations were to arise I would immediately contact the owner. And I am always the kind of clean up any kind of messes that may occur. I always leave the property clean and presentable. When carrying for your pets, depending on their personality and their comfort abilities, I will always allow them to come to me first with no pressure. If they have any skills or training and the owner gives permission, I do practice those skills and trainings with their pets. I will always make sure your pets are calm and happy because that is all I want for them.
