Dog Walking Hawthorne

“Cathy has been walking our anxious little rescue dog for over a year plus house/pet sitting as we’ve needed her. We are always so happy to know we have such a caring person with our pets! She provides such peace of mind. Couldn’t recommend more highly.”

“Ashlyn helped me in a pinch to take care of my pup when I was at work. She did a meet and greet first where my dog took to her immediately (normally a little shy). Left great, detailed notes from the walk and even took some of my packages inside—thank you!”

About: I’m the devoted doggie aunt to some pretty fantastic pups, and I genuinely love spending time with dogs. Walks aren’t something I rush through—I’m happy to let your dog sniff, explore, get some exercise and enjoy being outside. I’m dependable, attentive and comfortable following your dog’s particular routine, whether that means a brisk walk, a leisurely neighborhood sniffari, playtime or just some extra company and affection. I’ll treat your pup like one of my own—even though I’m still waiting for one of my own! My schedule is currently very flexible, which means I can accommodate weekday and weekend visits and walks, including daytime hours when many people are at work. I’m happy to work around your pet’s established routine and give them the time and attention they’re accustomed to. I know that trusting someone with your pet—and access to your home—is a big deal. I’m mature, dependable, communicative and respectful of your space and your pet’s routine. I follow instructions carefully, pay attention to changes in behavior, and know how to stay calm if something unexpected happens. Most importantly, I’ll treat your pets with patience, kindness and affection.

“Cindy has been a godsend for our boy Henry. We hit the jackpot with her. Highly recommended!!”

About: I've been caring for pets my whole life, and for the past 3+ years I've been pet sitting on and off with my mom. I currently have a 6-year-old husky and two tuxedo cats of my own, so I understand both high-energy dogs and independent cats — and I know how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your fur babies. I treat every pet like they're my own — with patience, attention, and a whole lot of care. I'd be honored to be someone you and your pet can count on. What sets me apart: - Husky experience — I know high-energy, strong-willed breeds need real exercise, patience, and structure. I'm comfortable with big dogs, pullers, and pups who need a little extra understanding. - Cat-savvy — With two tuxedo cats at home, I get that cats have their own rules. I'm patient, gentle, and respectful of their space and quirks. - Calm and dependable — I'm the kind of sitter who shows up on time, follows your routine exactly, and keeps you updated with photos and messages so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing. - Patient with all personalities — Whether your pet is shy, anxious, playful, or a little stubborn, I take the time to earn their trust and make them feel safe. - Genuine love for animals — This isn't just a job for me. I genuinely enjoy spending time with pets, learning their personalities, and making sure they feel loved while you're away. I'm currently working part-time, so I have plenty of availability to give your pets the attention they deserve. I'm available for boarding and sitting on weekends, and on weekdays after 2pm. My routine is flexible, so I can usually accommodate drop-in visits, walks, or overnight stays with a little notice. Whether your pup needs a mid-day walk or a cozy weekend sleepover, I'll make sure they get plenty of playtime, potty breaks, and love while you're away! In my home: Your pet will be treated like family. I have a 6-year-old husky and two tuxedo cats of my own, so I'm experienced with both high-energy dogs and independent cats. My home has a safe, pet-friendly setup with plenty of space to play, rest, and explore. I keep a close eye on everyone during introductions and always supervise interactions between pets. Your pup will get regular potty breaks, exercise, and plenty of attention — plus all the cuddles they want. In your home: I follow your routine to the letter — feeding schedules, walk times, medications, and any special instructions you leave. I'm respectful of your space, keep things tidy, and make sure your pet sticks to their normal routine so they feel safe and comfortable while you're gone. I'll send you photos and updates, so you never have to wonder how your fur baby is doing.

“Lynn is communicative, punctual, friendly, patient, and was great with my dog! She helped walk Yeiko while I was away and my parents said that Yeiko would jump in excitement every time she would come to pick him up, and that is always a good sign. I will definitely be rebooking with Lynn in the future :)”

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and genuinely love caring for them. I have a 8 year old Miniature Pinscher, Norman, who has taught me a lot about patience, routines, and making dogs feel safe and comfortable in their own way. (I don’t have him with me full time) I’m comfortable with dogs of different personalities and energy levels, and I’m happy to follow your pup’s usual routine, whether that means long walks, playtime, plenty of cuddles, or simply keeping them company. I’ll treat your dog like my own and keep you updated while you’re away. I am home in the morning and evenings on the weekdays. I am free to take your pets out on walks every couple hours or as needed. I prioritize safety and trust by maintaining a clean, secure environment for pets. I ensure their routines are followed, provide plenty of playtime and affection, and always keep a close eye on them to prevent any accidents. Your pets will feel comfortable and cared for in my home or yours. I have a fenced in yard as well

About: I’ve loved animals since childhood and have over 10 years of experience in pet care. I approach pets with both confidence and affection. I enjoy getting to know the unique personalities and helping them feel safe and loved. In addition to caring for other people’s pets I’ve had many of my own Including three cats and seven dogs ranging in age from six weeks to 14 years old. I’ve trained and walked dogs of all sizes from Chihuahuas to bull breeds in the neighborhoods and along nature trails. I’ve also taken dog training classes and have volunteered at the Oakland SPCA. I’ve trained puppies, and I’ve cared for older pets. I’m here to meet your pet’s care needs with compassion, reliability, and the experience they deserve. I’m looking for work. I can do in the afternoon and or evenings Monday through Friday and occasionally weekends. I am also available for late night check-in if you need it. I offer dog walking and dog/cat sitting. I will closely follow the routines and instructions shared to ensure your pets care is up to you and your pets standards

About: I love providing care that feels personal and full of joy. Animals have always been part of my life, and after years of experience, over 90 bookings and counting; I’ve learned that connection matters most. My goal is to engage and exhaust, because happy dogs are tired dogs. Every visit is about building trust and comfort. When families choose to rebook, it’s more than a service; it’s a relationship built on love, reliability, and understanding. Dogs become part of my daily routine rather than being placed into a kennel environment. My day is structured around consistency, exercise, and calm downtime, which helps many dogs settle in quickly and feel at home. Because I work from home and with a limited number of dogs I'm able to pay close attention to each dog's needs. High energy dogs receive appropriate exercise and engagement, while more relaxed dogs are given the space and quiet they prefer. My goal is simple: when you pick up your dog, I want the dog to seem like they had a great vacation of their own.
