Dog Walking Homelands

“I can always count on Cynthia to take the best care of my dog!”

Pamela H.

About: I’ve had and taken care of dogs almost my whole life. I’ve always cared for animals in general and have taken care of family dogs of different breeds. I'm also very comfortable around tiny dogs to big dogs! I am currently a stay-at-home mom so I’m home all day every day! I do have my 3-year-old with me on weekdays so If your desired drop in visit falls on a weekday, he will be going with me. Of course I will always make sure that is no problem with you, but he is a super well-behaved kid that also loves being around dogs. At my house, your dog will never be alone more than 30 min, I have 1 dog that your dog can play with she is a Maltipoo and is super playful and loves other dogs and people. I am available Most of the day with the exception of dropping off and picking up my kids from school. In my home, I have a fenced in yard, not huge but definitely plenty of room to play in. I also have 3 kids that love spending time with our dog so I’m certain your dog will get plenty of love! I always make sure to have water available and potty breaks when needed! In your home, I will always respect your space your home and your dog! He or she will get lots of love and cuddles while I'm there. Potty breaks of course and feeding if needed. I won't ever rush even if I'm booked with you for only a certain amount of time if I need to stay a little longer to ensure your dog is okay that is fine with me. I want to make sure if I'm doing house sitting or drop in visits, your dog is okay before I leave.

“Virginia was great with our dogs who can be a little mischievous at times and stubborn too. She was very communicative and even let me know about cuts on my dogs paws. both of my dogs are very large dogs and she handled them well.”

“Janet was absolutely amazing while we were away for a week! She was always reliable and on time, making sure our dog Soul got plenty of exercise and that Soul, along with our two cats Pickle and Michael, received all the love and attention they needed. She sent daily updates and photos, which gave us total peace of mind. It's clear she truly cares about the pets she looks after. We’re so grateful to have found her—Janet is definitely part of our pet care team from now on! Woof woof, meow 💜”

“Zoarel is so good with my dog Brady! He loves walking with her. She gives great updates and walk cards with lots of information about how the walk went. I will definitely be booking with her again!”

“Alanis is so wonderful. She walks our energetic golden retriever on occasions and our pup cannot wait to see her! She is very communicative and details our pup’s behavior and any concerns, etc. she may have. We feel so comfortable knowing we have her coming over to help out. She provides sweet love and care to our girl and we will continue to request Alanis’s help as often as we are able to!”

Jessica M.

“Monique is wonderful with my puppy! She is kind, patient and dependable. Her schedule is very available and flexible as well which is an added bonus. She communicates freely and always leaves detailed messages and at least 3 photos after every walk with my puppy. Also she puts her clients’ needs first and asks if there’s anything else needed before she’s done for the booking. Definitely got lucky finding her.”

About: Hi, my name is Bree! For as long as I can remember, I have always felt a strong sense of connection, compassion, and care for animals. Currently, my only pet is a cat, but I grew up with chihuahuas, a bird, and have pet sat for many friends and family members. After moving away from my hometown, I missed hanging out with all type of animals, so I decided to start pet sitting again. I love all animals, but I feel most comfortable and confident with cats and smaller or lower energy dogs. I am also happy to care for other animals, like birds, fish, and reptiles. I have experience administering oral and topical medications. I’m an excellent communicator and will tailor my care to your pets’ needs. I have a strong attention to detail and will love and care for your fur babies like they are my own. I am self-employed and work primarily from home, so my schedule is very flexible on both weekdays and weekends. On days when I work outside the home, I can drop in before and/or after my other responsibilities. I treat all homes with respect and cleanliness, and will follow your instructions for care. My goal is to make your pet feel safe and loved in your absence.

About: Hello! We live in a lovely neighborhood in La Mesa. I work from home with the occasional errand to the grocery store, so you can be assured that your pup will not go long periods of time without someone at home. We spend a lot of time out of doors, and get in lots of snuggles on the couch as well. We welcome your pup into our daily routine, and do not limit where they can go, unless you wish us to do so. Our home is your pups home. We'd love to meet you and your pup prior to booking, but realize schedules don't always allow such luxuries, so we are open to last minute bookings. We limit the number of guest dogs per night, so your dog will get an individualized experience suited to their needs. Please let us know if you have any questions for us! We'd love to get to know you and your pup. Come visit us!

“Kyra is excellent! A great communicator and ensures that issues are quickly addressed. She really took care of my girls and I can't recommend her enough. I will be using her again.”

About: Hey! My name is Chris… also known as Cherry’s Dad. I am very enthusiastic about people’s pets, have had dogs my entire life and will continue to be a dog person forever and ever. Fun fact: my mom owns a dog grooming shop in LA! I’ve worked a lot in the shop and have handled literally hundreds of pet dogs. After 15 years in corporate, I’m now a Business owner with flexibility in my schedule. I walk my own pet 3 times a day, and frequently take breaks to complete my put duties! At home, I pay attention to the dogs signals and adjust accordingly - are they happy? Nervous? Thirsty? Whining? I speak pretty good dog by listening. During walks, I never allow strangers, especially children, to approach someone’s dog I am in control of who isn’t mine.

“Ivania was AMAZING!! She was great with our two dogs and carefully listened as I explained care instructions. Ivania was so easy to work with and kept us up to date with pictures and videos each time she was with them. I definitely recommend her and will contact her again in the future. :)”

About: My name is Daisy I’m 28. I’ve been working with pets for 9 years as a dog groomer/dog walker/pet sitter so that means I deal with dogs and cats of all shapes, sizes, and age. I can’t imagine doing anything else for work! I just get dogs and they get me. I have two big babies of my own. I am available for dog grooming needs upon request. I like to do meet and greets with dogs/cats before making set plans just in case but I understand sometimes reservations are last minute. As an animal lover I understand that sometimes dogs are picky about people and it could take awhile for a dog to get used to somebody new. I’m all about animals. They run my life. I like to make myself available for my clients and their pets as soon as they need me. Im pretty open to whatever the client needs both in my home and yours. I do require that your animals are friendly with cats/dogs as I have both if we’re doing over night stays.

About: Ever since I was little I dreamed of owning a doggy hotel. But growing up I realized most doggy hotels are caged or crated the majority of their stays. I would never like my own dog to be caged in all day and only allowed a certain amount of outdoor time, so I started pet sitting at home! I have cared for my friends dogs for over a decade now. I enjoy experiencing different breeds and truly understand them. I have a deep tub for them to splash around in on hot days and a twin mattress in the garage for them to snuggle up in at night! Not a luxurious hotel I dream about but we will get there soon! Pet care is easy for me! I wake up and they are my first priority. I watch them all eat during feeding time and make sure no one is bullied out of their food. And separate those that need to be fed alone. I work full-time from home, which gives me the flexibility to provide plenty of attention and companionship to your pets throughout the day. Because I’m home while working, I’m able to maintain your pet’s routine, provide regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, meals, and lots of love and attention. My flexible work-from-home schedule also makes me a great option for house sitting, as your pets won’t have to spend long periods of time alone. I can be there to keep them company and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you're away. At My Home Your pet’s comfort, safety, and activity level are always important to me. Pets in my care have opportunities to spend time in both the backyard and garage, where I spend much of my time with them. This can be a great fit for dogs who enjoy being active or need extra outdoor time throughout the day. Most guests have access to the backyard and garage while supervised, depending on their individual needs and temperament. At night, dogs typically sleep in the room with me so they have companionship and aren't left alone. Crate accommodations are also available for pets who are crate-trained or whose owners prefer that option. To help prevent food-related conflicts, dogs are separated during feeding times when necessary, allowing everyone to eat comfortably and safely. In Your Home When caring for your pets in their own home, I focus on maintaining their normal routine while giving them as much companionship and attention as they need. I enjoy keeping pets active through walks, playtime, and other physical activities appropriate for their age, energy level, and abilities. My safety Your pet's safety and well-being are always my priority. My partner may occasionally check in on me and can be available to assist if needed, helping ensure I have additional support while caring for your pets.

About: Currently, an employee of a 24hr animal hospital, as well as, worked as lead staff in a dog daycare for six years I'm certain your dog will have a very safe and fun time! I've had 2 dogs for 18 years and still have my one mini-Aussie and we frequently go on hikes and road trips. I'm also versed in a little grooming having done it my own Aussie. I currently work full-time on the weekends so weekdays are my main free schedule. I typically go on hikes (short or long), walks for photography, and sometimes go for a run. I believe in "leave no trace" and as an organized and neat person, I will tend to clean up for others ensuring that everything is well kept as my way of showing respect for other's homes. I will follow any routines and guidelines for your pet and also get frequent notifications on their status along with professional pictures (if requested). I can also offer to take your pet on hikes with me as I tend to go frequently. As an employee of an animal hospital, if any accidents were to happen I can take it upon myself to take them with me to the hospital.

“Very professional and Fenway took to Erica immediately. She was extremely thorough in meeting us as well as reviewing what Fenway would need going forward. Our cat actually came out of hiding to meet and interact with Erica, which was a great sign!”
