Dog Walking In Joaquin Miller Park

“Whitney has walked my dog, Otis, for almost a year and a half and has been so wonderful! She was super reliable and flexible with my weird work schedule. He’s an accident prone guy and she’s been so patient with his various injuries, limps, medicines, treat restrictions, etc. I always got the silliest, cutest pictures of him which brightened my day! So appreciative of the peace of mind for my little mutt! I’m moving, so I have to cancel our service and we will miss Whitney! Thank you!”

“Adam is a wonderful pet carer and our shy rescue pup immediately warmed up to him. He has a great, calming, positive energy and is completely trustworthy. As soon as I met him, I knew Chami would be in good hands. He's very punctual, always bang on time to walk our dog and responsive with messaging and photo updates. I would 100% recommend him!”

“Kaiya is an excellent communicator! Kaiya is responsible and I really appreciate the photos she sends of the walks. Rilo looks like she is having a great time.”

“Juliana was wonderful with our shy pup Chami! She took him on lovely walks in the woods and has great energy with dogs. She is highly punctual and reliable. Would highly recommend!”

About: Hello! My name is Mary. I am a lifelong pet owner and animal enthusiast. I grew up on a horse farm with dogs, cats, horses, hamsters, and the odd rogue toad, so caring for animals with love and respect is literally second nature. I'm a somatic embodiment coach by trade, so I have a unique skill set for helping animals feel relaxed and comfortable in my care. I have joyously fostered 20+ dogs and cats in their transition to forever homes, and have extensive experience with house and pet sitting. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and breeds, from 6 pound little weasels to 80 pound gentle giants. I have a special place in my heart for seniors (and have experience caring for them.) I am comfortable and experienced with administering medication. Because I work from home online and over zoom, I can accommodate animals that need a shorter window of alone time. I'd be delighted to treat your fur family with all the love and care I would give my own. I look forward to hearing from you! I have my own online business, so my schedule is very fluid and flexible. I love walking dogs and can easily do day or evening walks and stop-bys. I have experience with staying in many different homes and I know that every animal has its own unique routines, needs and rituals that help it feel in flow. I'm very happy to work with your pet in the way they are used to.

About: I have taken care of dogs, cats, bunnies, etc. for my neighbors and friends since I was 10 years old. I have taken care of newborn animals and senior animals. I am fully free for the summer! I can pop by your house, go on walks, or keep your pet company at home. I am looking forward to taking care of your pet! I will make sure that your pet feels comfortable with me in their home and spend time playing with them or simply keeping them company. I will also love to go on long walks with your dog if requested!

“Zsa-zsa is phenomenal and did a great job caring for my old dog while I was out of town. She is communicative and kind and clearly has a way with the four-legged among us. She'll be our go-to-gal from here on out!”

“Korin does a great job. We have a senior dog and a reactive 3yo dog. She comes to our house, takes them both on a walk at the same time (challenging to do) and sends photos and updates throughout. We are so lucky to have connected with her!”

“Elyse was amazing! Our normal dog walker bailed on us last minute, so we needed someone fast. Elyse went above and beyond making sure our dogs were comfortable with her and had great communication with us. She is super sweet and our pitties love her!!!”

“Great guy! Felt really confident having him walk my dog and my dog came back tuckered out and happy! Will be using him again.”

“I was amazed how calm my pit bull Dalmatian mix was after his walk with Felicia, He never sleeps through the night, being 1yr old hes always so energetic he chews my stuff up while I sleep. Toys are not enough to keep his spazyness under control lol, but after his walk he went strait to bed :) deff will be booking Felicia again for evning walks!”

About: I have had and cared for pets since childhood, rescuing (literally from the streets) a lovely pitbull named Olive when I lived in Philadelphia. Moved to CA in May 2026 from East Coast. I recently moved to CA to support my wife’s new job in SF. I have a fully open schedule at the moment and with a love of animals I thought that this would be a better way to learn and love my new community than digging through online job ads. I am willing to sit, play, walk, feed and care for your pets as needed. I’m an active (formerly collegiate) runner and can go as fast or slowly as your pet needs. I have reliable transportation and experience in pet first aid as I recently completed my tenure as an Emergency Manager with the American Red Cross.

About: My pug mix Lulu will LOVE to go on walks with your dog in the Oakland hills. Lulu loves all friends and has made so many furry friends in the neighborhood in Piedmont Pines. We are very active together and go on lots of walks, hikes and I take Lulu to Joaquin Miller dog park and Fairy Land dog meet up. I'd love to take your dog along on our adventures and host your dog at my house, or go for a drop in visit with Lulu at your house. We'll have so much fun together, especially with Lulu wanting to play constantly! Your dog's comfort and safety is my priority, and I also give them so many hugs and snuggles. Since I have my 2 year old Pug mix Lulu, we have a great routine together that includes morning and afternoon walks and taking her to dog parks in the evening. She also has her best friends up the street on Ascot and we go play with them a bunch of times in the week. Lulu's happiness and joy is my priority, and we prioritize being outside for playtime and hikes as much as possible. I'll be sure to include this care for your pets as well because they deserve to have the most fun possible!! I currently work a couple part time jobs and my schedule is very flexible. Pet care is easy for me at the moment. I try my absolute best to keep everything as safe and as comfortable as possible at my home for the dogs!! They are my priority :) I always keep a good eye on them when they are in the backyard, and I never leave them fully alone when they are outside. They also get endless cuddles from me throughout the day, which I hope helps them feel comforted and safe with me :)

About: Hi! Animals have always been a big part of my life, and I have experience caring for dogs and cats of all sizes, ages, and personalities, including senior, anxious, and high-energy pets. At home, I currently have two small dogs, Wallace (14) and Tofu (7), along with my cat Luna (9), so I understand how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your pets and their routines. I'm especially comfortable with: - Senior dog & cat care - Giving medication - High-energy dogs who need extra engagement - Anxious or shy pets who need patience and calm energy - Positive reinforcement and treat-based training I'm not a professional trainer, but I genuinely enjoy working with dogs on basic skills, confidence, and engagement through positive reinforcement. If your dog is treat motivated, I'd love to incorporate little training moments into walks or drop-ins (with your permission of course!). I have a flexible schedule and am available Monday–Friday from 7am–6pm, which allows me to give your pets lots of attention, consistency, and care. Whether your pet needs a calm companion, extra playtime, a slow walk, or just someone patient and attentive to check in on them, I'd love to help! I know pets are family, and I'll always do my best to make them feel safe, understood, and cared for while you're away 🐾 I have a very flexible schedule and am available Monday-Friday from 7am-6pm for walks, drop-ins, and enrichment time. I'm able to give pets consistent attention and adjust to their routines as needed. I focus on keeping your pet's routine as consistent and stress-free as possible while you're away. I'll follow your instructions closely, including feeding, medication, and walk routines. I'm patient, attentive, and always prioritize your pet's safety and comfort, both in your home and on walks.

“Sneha is super communicative and great with my dog Sal; I never have to worry about my dog when he is under Sneha’s care. As a bonus, my dog gets along very well with Sneha’s pup Elliott!”
