Dog Walking In Jefferson-Monticello Park-Woodlawn Lake

About: I have taken care of animals for as long as I can remember! I am constantly around animals and having to commit myself to taking care of them. I am comfortable around all dogs and am willing to adapt and learn how to best care for your animal. When I come to take care of, play with, and walk your dogs I will dedicate my time to loving them. I would love to be able to take them to the dog park where they can also interact with other animals while you're away! I am available for drop ins when needed! I am also flexible and can accept last minute bookings. When in your home, I would love to take your fur babies for walks, to dog parks, anything you already do with them to make them the most comfortable I work in the morning, after 12:30pm I am available to care for your small loved ones. Walking, running, and feeding are my specialties. I enjoy frequenting dog parks and going on walks while also considering the necessities. Hydration, disposable, potty bags, and proper breaks. I offer thorough and considerate care for all animals

“Sara was a lifesaver for our two dogs and cat while we had a long weekend trip. She walked them and played with them twice a day and sent several great pictures. Will definitely rebook with Sara again!”

About: I grew up in a house that always had pets - cats, dogs, or both! As a teenager, I began to take a very active role in taking care of our animals and have not stopped since. I adopted my own dog in 2020 after I graduated college, and my husband and I adopted another dog last year. We adore our dogs and prioritize their care at every turn with extra attention to details like mental stimulation, plenty of exercise and homemade dog food. I have the most experience with medium to larger sized dogs, but am comfortable with dogs of all sizes. I also have experience taking care of senior dogs and dogs with unique medical concerns that require special medication or attention, such as allergies, tremors, and ear infections. I am well equipped to handle whatever specific care your fur baby might need, and look forward to the opportunity to step in and love on them while you are away! I currently work full-time, but have flexibility with when I take my breaks. My husband (who will help me with any boarding responsibilities) also works but is completely remote and thus has lots of flexibility. However, my evenings and weekends are typically wide open. At our home, we have a fenced in backyard, security cameras and floodlights, and live in a neighborhood with lots of sidewalk access. We have a routine with our own dogs that includes twice daily feedings, bathroom breaks every few hours, daily mile long walks, evening play sessions, homemade dog food, and lots of cuddles. We do not crate our dogs because they are well behaved enough to be trusted, but we have an extra crate or can accommodate your crate in our home pending your preferences. I am quite familiar with the greater San Antonio area and feel comfortable getting out to walk dogs in other parts of the city. I believe in keeping furry friends as close to their routine as possible while their owners are away to minimize stress and anxiety and make sure they feel loved. That said, I always take guidance from pet parents when traveling to take care of new pets!

“Mel has walked Ace for me several times now and each time he is very timely, very kind, and communicates well. He is wonderful with Ace and I never worry about my fur-baby when he’s with Mel. He is also great about responding very promptly and flexible with scheduling. Definitely give him a try, you won’t be disappointed! Thank you again, Mel!”

“Ignacio is incredible with pets- both my dog and my cats love him. I have been using Ignacio for over a year now with both my dog and my cats and I don’t ever use anyone else. Ignacio is really patient as Pinky can sometimes be a handful, he works with her on her walks and always goes above and beyond . I highly recommend him. He’s professional, on time and truly loves animals.”

About: I am a vet tech and pet sitter with over 20 years of experience. I am comfortable with the sensitive souls, the anti-socials, the bully breeds and the old folk. (I’m particularly good at giving medicine) I can also do nail trims and basic grooming. I am a fast walker who can handle large and athletic dogs, or I can move at a slow pace to enjoy the sights and smells. Whatever you need, I am an experienced pet sitter that you can trust. I am currently working as a stay at home mom and a relief veterinary technician. My schedule is flexible and I am committed to making sure that your pet receives the most top quality care. At my home, I have a secure fenced in yard and a dog-friendly mixed breed named Cricket. Whether it is pet sitting or dog walking, my main priority is the safety of your pet. I want to make sure that they are comfortable and in a safe environment that will set them up to have the best experience possible.

About: My parents bred/showed dogs all my life so I grew up with dogs in all stages of life around and also have experience training and showing. I have a 2 yr old dog who does agility and diving. I'd love the opportunity to hang out with your pet. Im not currently working as I am disabled but am looking for something to help me be more active. I'll have plenty of time to hang with your pet. Im available pretty much any time with some notice. I will care for your pet as if they were my own. I will respect your home and am big on following whatever directions you have for me for their care.

About: I’ve cared for dogs of all ages and energy levels, so I’m comfortable adjusting to what each dog needs. Whether that’s gentle care for a senior dog or making sure a high-energy dog gets enough movement, I’m attentive and consistent. I’m also very observant and communicative—I stick to routines, notice small changes in behavior, and keep owners updated so you feel confident your pet is in good hands. I keep a flexible schedule so I can provide consistent, attentive care throughout the day. Whether your pet needs regular walks or specific timing, I’m able to accommodate and stay reliable. I provide care exclusively in my clients’ homes so pets can stay comfortable in their own environment. I follow routines closely—feeding, walks, play, and rest—while making sure active dogs get the consistent exercise they need. I’m respectful of your space, keep things clean, and aim to create a calm, steady environment while you’re away. I also send regular updates and photos so you can feel at ease.

About: Dedicated and dependable walker who has raised his own dogs, including a service dog. My fiancé certified in dog first aid and experienced working with dogs, will happily join our walks to provide extra care and attention. Pet care is a meaningful part of our routine, and we dedicate Fridays and Saturdays to providing focused, reliable walks. We plan those days around each dog’s needs to ensure they receive safe, attentive care, exercise, and plenty of positive interaction. For added safety, my fiancé joins me on walks. She is certified in pet first aid, which gives us an extra layer of preparedness and peace of mind for every pup.

“Ericka is absolutely amazing! She has been an incredible dog walker for my standard poodle, Gigi, and I couldn’t be happier with her care. From the start, Ericka has been so sweet, flexible with scheduling, and consistently reliable. She always communicates promptly and very quickly learned the French commands that I use with Gigi. Gigi absolutely LOVES her walks with Ericka. She gets so excited when Ericka arrives, literally jumping with joy, and it’s clear how much she adores her. Ericka does a fantastic job managing Gigi’s high energy levels and always ensures she gets the exercise and attention she needs. I trust Ericka completely with Gigi and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dedicated and caring dog walker. Thank you, Ericka!”
