Dog Walking Highgrove

“Elena was very friendly and confident in walking my 120 pound German Shepherd Sampson. He was excited yo walk with her. I like how Rover sends pictures of your dog on his walk.”

About: I’ve been a dog owner for the past 6 years, so I understand how important it is to make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Over the years, I’ve gained hands-on experience with feeding, walking, playing, and taking care of my dog’s everyday needs. I’m a responsible, outgoing, and active person who genuinely enjoys spending time with dogs. Whether it’s going on walks, playing outside, or just keeping them company, I always make sure they get plenty of attention and care. I understand that every dog has its own personality and routine, and I’m happy to adjust to their specific needs. My goal is to make sure your dog feels right at home while giving you peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands! I’m currently a student at UC Riverside, where I’m involved in clubs, intramural sports, and other campus activities. Although I stay involved with school, my classes are primarily in the mornings, which gives me plenty of flexibility throughout the rest of the day to care for pets. I’m able to work around my class schedule to provide dog walks, feeding, playtime, and house sitting. I can also go back and forth between campus and your home to make sure your dog is fed, checked on, and given the attention they need. I enjoy staying active and spending time with dogs, and I’m committed to making sure your pets are well cared for while you’re away! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well taken care of. Having my own dog for the past 7 years has taught me how important it is to follow a pet’s daily routine, whether that’s feeding, walking, playing, or just giving them attention and company. I understand that every dog has different needs and personalities, so I’m happy to follow any specific instructions from their owner. I also make sure to keep the home clean and organized, respect the owner’s space, and provide updates so they know their pet is doing well. My goal is to make sure your dog feels loved and comfortable while you’re away!

About: As a registered veterinary technician (nurse) I have the background and education to give you the peace of mind that your fur babies are well cared for. I have experience caring for all animals from pocket pets to livestock and everything in between! I am also fear free certified so I know the signs of stress and how to help your pets feel the most comfortable. I just graduated from college so I am completely available for all your pets needs. If you need a one time visit or a regular schedule I am here. I will bring all my expertise into their own home, keeping their routine consistent. I love to play, cuddle, or sit on opposite sides of the house whatever they prefer.

About: I have a deep love and respect for every pet I care for. I adopted a sick puppy, and through patience and nurturing, he has blossomed into a beloved member of my family. This experience has taught me the profound bond that can develop between a pet and their caregiver, highlighting the importance of kindness and understanding in every interaction. I’ve also gained experience by showing care and compassion to animals in need around me, making sure they feel safe and comfortable. Each animal has its own unique personality and needs, and I strive to create a warm and welcoming environment for them all. My commitment to treating every pet with compassion ensures they feel loved and secure while in my care. I work remotely as a freelancer, which gives me the flexibility to integrate pet care into my daily routine seamlessly. This allows me plenty of time to spend with furry friends, playing, cuddling, and ensuring they receive the love and attention they deserve. My schedule enables me to provide a nurturing and engaging environment, ensuring that every pet feels comfortable and cared for throughout the day. When caring for pets in my home or a client's home, I prioritize their safety and comfort above all else. I follow their food schedule diligently to ensure they maintain a healthy routine. Engaging with pets through playtime and interactive activities is essential, as it keeps them stimulated and happy. Since I do not have pets of my own, I can provide a safe and distraction-free environment for them. Living in an apartment allows me to easily take them for walks outside in green areas, where they can explore and enjoy some fresh air. If needed, I can safely crate pets to provide them with a secure space to relax. My home is a welcoming environment filled with love and attention, ensuring every pet feels safe and at ease. Building trust is key, and I take the time to understand each pet's unique personality and needs, creating a positive experience for both them and their owners.
