Dog Walking Irvington

“Karem walked Kiara and our puppy came back happy! We will book again.”

“She was always on time, with a perfect attitude and providing quality walking time for my dogs. 100% recommended, they had an amazing time and came back to the apt super tired, meaning they walked a lot! Thanks for taking care of the walking process with Sola/Chanel!”

About: I have a dog who is my whole entire world. I have always loved and cared for dogs and cats. Have done pet sitting for friends and family for the past 5 years I am currently in college and taking hybrid classes so I free 80% of the week. I am more than willing to discuss schedules and times. I like in an apartment with a small back porch but also a lot of grass and space around my apartment complex. I have a small maltipoo to keep your babies company. I can easily crate your baby if needed.

“Andrew is hands-down one of the BEST sitters/walkers I’ve ever trusted my fur babies with. He’s kind, incredibly easy to work with, and a great communicator — quick responses, smooth coordination, thoughtful questions, and the CUTEST photo updates (which made my entire day) of my dog living his best life. Andrew is the kind of person you just know will treat your pets the way you would — honestly, in my case, even better. He didn't just take Nyoom for a quick stroll around the block; he gave my pup so much affection/love, extra time to play, explore, and get ALL the zoomies out. And even though I only booked a dog walk, he still took the time to check in on my cat and send a little check-in update about her too, which meant so much to me and speaks for his incredible genuine character. Andrew treated my pets like his own. His level of service and dedication made me feel like this wasn't just a gig to him. He truly loves pets and building bonds with them and their humans. That kind of care is rare. I’ve already rebooked him and have been recommending him to all my pet parent friends and family. He’s the kind of sitter your pet will sprint to the door for, and I’d book with him again in a heartbeat. 11/10!”

“Alani is hands down one of the nicest people I have met in a while, and my two dogs fell completely in love with her! I broke my leg while my husband was out of town and was unable to walk my dogs and she literally came to my rescue. She is punctual, communicative, trustworthy, and really went the extra mile to help me. Thanks Alani! -Max, Butters, & Lana.”

About: We have shared our home with dogs and cats for over 30 years. For more than two decades, we've served as a foster home for Furry Friends Rescue, caring for dogs and cats of every age, breed, temperament, and medical need while they waited for their forever homes. That kind of fostering means we've handled it all: bottle-feeding newborn kittens, house-training anxious rescue puppies, managing senior pets with arthritis or special diets, and giving extra patience to animals recovering from neglect or trauma. We know how to read an animal's body language, spot early signs something's wrong, and adjust our approach to fit each pet's personality rather than expecting them to adjust to us. We no longer have pets of our own, which means your pet gets our full attention, energy, and home, without competing with a resident dog or cat for space or affection. Our house is calm, comfortable, and set up for animals to feel safe. We do still have foster cats that are friendly with other animals. Whether your pet needs a quiet, structured routine, extra TLC, or just an experienced hand who won't be fazed by anything, we've likely already seen it and handled it with care. Pet care isn't squeezed into our schedule, it is our schedule. Both of us are home full-time, with no kids and no pets of our own, so your dog(s) or cat(s) gets our undivided attention rather than fitting in around a job or a household routine. With two of us in the home, we can cover any schedule your animal needs, whether that's specific feeding times, medication a few times a day, or simply consistent company and playtime throughout the day. If one of us needs to step out, the other is always here, so your cat is never left alone for long. We're also equipped for whatever the situation calls for. We have crates and carriers on hand, and a large SUV if transport is ever needed, whether that's a vet visit, a pickup or drop-off, or anything else that comes up. Because we no longer have pets of our own, your cat isn't sharing our time, space, or attention with a resident animal. Our days are genuinely built around being available and present, which is exactly the kind of routine that comes from over 20 years of fostering. We own our home, which includes a large fenced yard and patio, giving pets plenty of safe space to run, play, and explore outside. We have no neighboring animals, so there are no surprise fence-line encounters or added stress from unfamiliar pets nearby. For dogs, we get outside for walks every day, rain or shine, so your pet stays on their normal exercise routine even while away from home. Indoors, pets have the run of a calm, comfortable home rather than being confined to one room. We tailor our approach to each animal's personality, whether that means a structured routine, extra quiet time, or simply consistent companionship throughout the day. For longer stays we can send pictures too. We have an established relationship with our own veterinarian and are comfortable handling special needs animals, including pets on medication schedules, seniors with mobility or dietary needs, or animals recovering from illness or injury. This comes directly from over 20 years of fostering through Furry Friends Rescue, where we regularly cared for animals with medical or behavioral needs that required extra attention and consistency. Whatever the service, boarding, drop-in visits, or house sitting, your pet gets a safe, secure environment, plenty of space, and two experienced caregivers who know how to watch for and respond to their individual needs.

“Shirley is nice, kind, and seems to do well with dogs! She asked questions that made me feel confident to leave Bruce in her hands :) I would recommend Shirley to anyone who needs someone to trust to take care of their fur baby 🐶”

“Paige was very responsive & accommodating with our last minute request, and took great care of our dog Kiara during her walk. She was very gentle with Kiara, & it was evident that Kiara loved her walk. Will definitely be booking Paige again!”

About: I raised my own Scottish Terrier from 2010 to 2022. I would walk Terry with other dogs around Lake Elizabeth anytime there was the sun in the sky I’m free anytime from 8am to 2pm. I typically go for a walk around 9am or 10am anyways throughout the week or weekends so I would love any doggy companion. I live in a brand new apartment complex by Lake Elizabeth in Fremont. I love going for daily walks and bringing dogs to the dog park or a ring around the lake!

About: Hello my name is Hunter! Having grown up with dogs for over 20 years, I've had the joy of caring for pups of every shape and size. I have had dogs from 10 pound little ones to 130 pound gentle giants. Whether we are navigating the neighborhoods of Fremont or enjoying a leisurely stroll, I bring a lifelong passion for animals to every walk. I pride myself on having a natural way with pets, and my calm energy helps keep dogs relaxed and comfortable, regardless of their size. I know the rules of the road for safe walking and always prioritize your dog's well-being. I can't wait to meet your pup! Since I work remotely, my schedule offers great daytime flexibility for pet care. I am consistently available for walks and also take new clients with 2 days notice. I am available Monday through Friday from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM. This makes me a perfect fit for pet parents who work during the day and need a dependable, midday potty break and exercise session for their dogs. For walks and drop in visits at a client's home, my top priorities are safety, respect for your space, and your dog's happiness. I ensure leashes and harnesses are properly secured before we step outside, and I remain constantly aware of our surroundings during the walk. When returning home, I always check that water bowls are filled, paws are wiped if needed, and doors are securely locked behind me. I treat every client's home with the utmost respect and leave things exactly as I found them.

“Diana is great! Highly recommended”

“Kruti was amazing taking care of our three puppies - she walked them for a long time and they came back exhausted. She was also extremely attentive and caring, I do feel like she took care of them like they would be her own”

Iulia Z.

“Charlene is absolutely wonderful with our dog! She’s our go-to for walks three days a week and has been incredibly reliable and attentive. She communicates clearly, always gives thoughtful updates, and I can tell she genuinely cares. I always feel confident that our dog is safe and well taken care of when he’s with her. Highly recommend!”

About: I have 9 years of hands-on animal rescue experience including fostering, TNR work and caring for pets from outdoor rescues. Through this volunteer work and my unconditional genuine love for all animals, I’ve learned to be patient, observant, and gentle, giving each animal the time and care they need to feel safe and comfortable. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine, and I make sure I have the time and flexibility to give each pet my full attention. I prioritize consistency, clear communication, and unhurried visits so pets feel relaxed and well cared for. I’m especially comfortable caring for rescue pets and understand that trust can take time, so I always move at each pet’s pace and respect their individual boundaries.

“Lauren was great with walking my dog. They made sure he got water breaks, sent updates and pictures after each walk. They were also available to extend the walk to an hour and for a super last minute booking, so I totally appreciate the flexibility. Thank you Lauren!”

“Bella had a wonderful week and was well cared for by Jacqi. She even towel dried and held her after a rainy walk to make sure she was not cold.”
