Dog Walking Kiesel

“Brittany is amazing! For one, she is very flexible and has been a life saver with squeezing in last minute walks for my dog, Frosty 🐾 but most importantly I can tell Frosty genuinely has a great time with Brittany. Nothing better than receiving photo updates of Frosty and seeing that he is happy and comfortable around Brittany 😊”

About: I've taken care of my dogs, friends' dogs, and house-sat for dog owners. I’m experienced with dogs of all energy levels and temperaments. I currently work Sunday through Wednesday, and I’m fully available Thursday through Saturday. On those days, I can give your pet my full attention and focus on their care, routine, and needs. On Sunday through Wednesday, I am available before 8 am and after 8 pm. I provide dog sitting and dog walking with a strong focus on safety, trust, and maintaining each dog’s normal routine. I am comfortable with small dogs and large dogs who need a lot of exercise.

About: Hi! I'm Susi, and my goal is to make your time away as stress free as possible, for both you and your pets. My experience comes from being a lifelong dog owner and understanding firsthand how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else's care. I know that every dog has their own routine, comfort level, and quirks that make them who they are. That’s why I focus on providing personalized care for one family at a time, creating a calm and comfortable environment where your pet can feel safe and loved. I know how important trust is when leaving your pet with someone new, so I'll keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages, giving you peace of mind while you're away. I'll follow your instructions carefully, from feeding schedules and medications to favorite toys and bedtime routines, so your pet experiences as little disruption as possible. When your pet stays with me, they'll receive the same love, patience, and care I'd want for my own family. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine, and I’ve structured my schedule so every pet in my care receives consistent attention, companionship, and supervision. I’m home everyday of the week and have plenty of time for walks, potty breaks, playtime, feeding, cuddles, and maintaining your pet’s normal routine. I attend school on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 9am-12pm and 6pm-9pm, but someone is always home, so your pet will never be left alone for long periods. Because I only care for one family’s pets at a time, I’m able to give them focused, personalized care instead of dividing my attention between multiple bookings. My goal is to keep their routine as familiar and stress free as possible so they feel safe, comfortable, and truly at home. In my home, I provide a calm, comfortable environment where pets can settle in and feel like part of the family. I have a large, fully fenced yard for supervised potty breaks, playtime, and outdoor enrichment, along with a quiet dog park just a few blocks away that is usually empty. I only use the park when it is appropriate for the individual dog and with the owner’s permission. I also have a dog (Jayda) of my own who is friendly, calm, and respectful of other dogs’ boundaries. I always prioritize safe introductions and closely monitor interactions so every pet feels comfortable. If a visiting dog is not comfortable around other dogs, my home has separate rooms and spaces where pets can be safely kept apart whenever necessary. Their comfort and safety always come first. Because I care for one family at a time, I can give each pet personalized attention and follow their usual feeding, walking, medication, playtime, and bedtime routines as closely as possible. For care in a client’s home, I respect both the pet’s routine and the home itself. During drop-ins or house sitting, I provide fresh food and water, potty breaks, litter box or yard cleanup, medication when needed, playtime, affection, and any other care instructions provided. For walks, I focus on safety, exercise, and letting each dog move at a pace that suits their age, energy level, and comfort. No matter the service, I send regular photo and message updates so owners can feel confident knowing their pet is safe, comfortable, and receiving attentive care.

“He watched our dog while we were out of town for four days and he was reliable and communicated with us during each visit. He sent photos of our pup on each visit and also fed and filled his water bowl. We will definitely be booking him again in the future. Thank you, Cedric.”

About: I’ve always loved animals, and I found that caring for other people’s beloved pets brings me lots of joy. I grew up caring for neighbors’ pets that included goats, ducks, dogs, cats, ponies and more. A passion of mine is volunteering at animal shelters to provide care to animals in need. I also have a degree in biology, so I have scientific background to support my love of animals. My combination of educational background and natural love for animals makes me a excellent choice when looking for pet care. I know how precious my pets are to me, and I want to provide the kind of care I would expect for my own pets to other owners out there. I know how stressful it can be leaving your pet with someone else, so you can rest easy if I am caring for your fur-babies. I have extensive experience with special needs dogs in particular. My own dog has severe epilepsy, so I am very familiar with proper medication administration. I take additional care and pride in looking after animals with medical needs. I understand the extra stress of finding care for a pet in that situation, and am happy to provide that service. I work remotely from home, so I am completely available for pet care. I have my own dog and 2 cats, though I can be flexible with my own animals’ schedule when it comes to sitting and boarding for others, thanks to my husband. I’m happy to discuss specifics to see what might work best for you. I primarily focus on drop in visits and walks, as I have a high energy dog and 2 cats at home. I also find that most pets are more comfortable and less stressed in their own homes. However, I can discuss boarding and housesitting on a case-by-case basis if that is something you are interested in.

About: I am a regular volunteer at the YOLO animal shelter and Happy Tails Cat Sanctuary. At home I take care of all of my exotic pets, I own a parakeet, cockatiel, bearded dragon, rat, and two fish tanks. I love my at home zoo and taking care of everybody, I'd love to share that joy with YOU! I currently work part-time with a flexible schedule to accommodate all YOUR pet's needs! Weekdays are very flexible where-as weekends need a couple days notice. I follow directions diligently and confidently. With all of my pet experiences your pet is sure to feel comfortable, safe and happy in my care.

About: Hello! :) My name is Mari & I grew up around various animals ranging from horses, cattle, livestock, and of course- dogs! I’m a huge animal lover & treat them with the utmost respect. I make it a high priority that pet owners & their fur babies feel safe, comfortable & confident with me. I can’t wait to meet your furry friend! ☺️ I have availability Friday - Sunday. I like to make sure pets & their owners feel safe with me. I always make sure I’m keeping up with routines, diet, exercise, etc. Respecting animals and their homes is a top priority for me. I always want to make sure that my clients can entrust in me and that they feel confident in my care and that their pet feels safe around me at all times whether their owner is present or not.

About: While I specialize in cat sitting and absolutely adore caring for feline companions, I'm also happy to help with dog sitting for friendly, WELL-TRAINED SMALL PUPS. As a cat sitter first and foremost, I only accept ONE dog PER booking to ensure I can provide the best possible care and attention. Though I'm newer to dog care, I'm patient, attentive, and eager to provide a safe, calm environment for dogs who are easygoing and enjoy a relaxed routine. I'm comfortable following detailed care instructions and making sure your pup feels comfortable and cared for while you're away. My heart is with cats, but I'm always happy to give well-mannered dogs the love and attention they deserve too! I'm currently open and have a flexible schedule, so I'm happy to work around your pet's unique needs whether it's regular visits or last-minute plans. Your pet's comfort and routine always come first. Because I may be caring for other pets throughout the day, I can't always guarantee an exact visit time. If your requested time is already booked, I'll reach out as soon as possible to see if there's a nearby time that works for you. If your pet needs medication or has a strict schedule, please let me know in your booking request so I can make sure I can accommodate their needs. I do require an in-person meet and greet before confirming any new booking. This helps ensure your pet feels comfortable and we're a great fit! As a proud cat mom, I care for my cats with a lot of love, patience, and attention to detail. Each of them has their own personality and needs, so I make sure their routines are consistent, their environment feels safe, and they get both playtime and quiet comfort. From feeding and litter box cleaning to brushing and cozy cuddle time, I treat them like family because to me, they are.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for years and understand that every dog has their own unique personality and needs. As a dog owner myself, I know how important it is to find someone who will treat your pet with the same love and care you do. I have experience with daily walks, feeding, playtime, administering routines, and providing lots of attention and companionship. I’m comfortable following detailed care instructions and keeping pet parents updated with photos and messages throughout each visit. Caring for my own dog has also taught me patience, consistency, and how to recognize when a dog needs extra space or a calmer approach. My goal is always to help pets feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away. My availability is flexible, and I’m happy to accommodate your pup’s preferred walking times, whether they need morning exercise, midday breaks, or evening strolls. As a dog mom, I know how important it is to trust someone with your pup. I provide patient, attentive walks focused on safety and happiness.

About: I’ve been a lifelong dog lover and am the proud dog mom of my own Husky–Goldendoodle, Nagi. Caring for her has given me experience with daily walks, exercise, feeding, enrichment, grooming, and understanding different dog personalities and needs. Friends and family have trusted me to care for their pets, and I know how important it is to provide a safe, loving, and consistent routine while owners are away. In my professional career, I manage programs for the State of California, so being dependable, organized, and communicating clearly comes naturally to me. I bring that same level of responsibility and care to every pet I look after. My goal is to make every pet feel comfortable, loved, and cared for while giving owners complete peace of mind. I’m available for morning, afternoon, evenings, weekend, and holiday pet care. I’m happy to provide walks, drop-in visits, and overnight house sitting depending on my schedule. I always keep my calendar updated and only accept bookings that allow me to give your pet the attention, exercise, and care they deserve. Communication is very important to me, and I’ll send regular photo updates throughout each visit. I know pets feel happiest when they can stay in their own familiar environment. I carefully follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, medications (if needed), and any special instructions. I’ll respect your home as if it were my own and make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I provide frequent photo and video updates so you can travel with peace of mind, knowing your furry family member is in caring and reliable hands.

About: I can handle bottle babies and senior needs, including administering pills or IVs. I have a separate room if your little friend prefers some privacy, otherwise, I’m happy to give them all the attention they need! I’m available all afternoons and fully on weekends. I can offer attention and or/medications early mornings as well. I can keep your pet on a specific diet schedule as well. I can set up any litter box/bathroom needs in my home. I will keep them on their regular feeding schedule and diet, and provide them any additional accommodations upon request.

“Shelby feels like family. I asked her to stop by so I could introduce her to Lala and walk her through the routine. She was on time, and she made me feel very comfortable. She was at ease with Lala, who is almost blind, and somewhat stand offish. She is definitely, a keeper!”

About: Hi there! I’m Mel. I’ve had dogs in my life for over 30 years — growing up with Golden Retrievers, German Shepherds, Border Collies, and Labs, and later caring for high-energy breeds like Huskies, Malamutes, Pit Bulls, and Dobermans as an adult. I’m comfortable with big dogs, strong pullers, and dogs who need real exercise, but I’m just as happy with a Chihuahua curled up on the couch. I spent 8 years as a nanny, so looking after something that depends on you completely isn’t new to me — it’s second nature. I offer house sitting, drop-in visits, and walks. I don’t board dogs in my own home, since I have a resident cat (a very opinionated tabby mix), but I’m experienced with cats too, including Maine Coons and other long-haired breeds, if you need a sitter for feline friends as well. I’ve handled the less glamorous parts of the job without blinking: medication schedules, backyard cleanup, even a dog who met a skunk face-first. My standard for every visit is simple — when you get home, your house should look better than when you left it, and your dog should be fed, exercised, and ready to sleep well. I treat your home and your animal the way I’d want mine treated. I’m self-employed, so my schedule is flexible and mostly built around dog care. I’m generally available 8am–6pm on weekdays, with some days running later. In the summer heat, I keep an eye on pavement temperature and adjust walk times so it’s safe on paws — sometimes that means earlier or later in the day rather than midday. Weekends are available with advance scheduling. I’m also happy to do drop-in visits spaced out over the day or across longer periods if that suits your dog’s routine better than a single visit. Since I don’t board dogs in my own home — I have a resident cat — all my care happens in your space, on your dog’s normal turf, which tends to be less stressful for them than an unfamiliar house. I follow whatever routine you set: meals, meds, walks, exercise. I’m comfortable administering medication, cleaning up after accidents or messes, and handling anything that comes up — I’ve dealt with a dog getting skunked, dogs with high energy who need real exercise, and the everyday logistics of keeping a home running while you’re away. My rule for every visit: your house should look better than when you left it, and your dog should be fed, exercised, and settled by the time you get home.

About: I've cared for & loved my own pets throughout the years. Pets are Family so I understand the importance of special care while their parents are busy. You can trust me with your babies while you're away, they'll be cared for, played with & excerized how you see fit. I can care for Pets 24 hours a day, even during Graveyard Shifts & weekends. I have my own vehicle & am able bodied to be able to run, walk & play with your pets as requested. I live in a wonderful safe area for dog walking & right across the street from a large park for play time. I can easily transport animals to dog parks or any appointments needed. At home, I can handle crates indoors temperature controlled. If I am welcomed into your home or your exterior property, I am comfortable following directions on how to care for your pet in the comfort of your home & your pets natural surroundings. I can offer services 24 hours a day, including Graveyard shifts for those who have less than traditional schedules or are physically limited. I am open to various duties with pets, inclusive of veterinary appointments, exercise, play dates & feeding. I am here to help!

“Waymon is great with our pups! They loved walking with him. Will definitely book again.”

About: Dogs have always been family to me. When I care for your dog, I treat them with the same patience, respect, and affection that I give my own. I am a dog trainer with experience using positive reinforcement, reading canine body language, and building trust with dogs as individuals. My experience comes from years of hands-on care, training my own dogs, including my service dog, volunteering with rescues and shelters, and learning from every dog I have had the privilege to know. What makes my care different is that I pay attention to the little things. I am someone who notices changes in behavior, possible ear concerns, nail or coat issues, discomfort, or anything unusual that an owner should know about. My goal is not just to supervise your dog, but to truly care for their well-being and communicate with you. I have experience with dogs of many sizes, breeds, and personalities, from small dogs around 4 pounds to large dogs over 90 pounds. I have cared for bully breeds, German Shepherds, Rottweilers, Goldendoodles, Poodles, rescue dogs, senior dogs, and dogs with special medical needs. Caring for my own Golden Retriever with myasthenia gravis and megaesophagus taught me the importance of patience, careful routines, and individualized care. I also have grooming experience, including bathing, brushing, nail trims, ear cleaning, and coat maintenance. I enjoy helping dogs feel comfortable and cared for. When appropriate, I love adding personal touches, such as sending dogs home with a toy or making homemade treats. I always check for allergies and dietary needs first to make sure everything is safe for your dog. I believe dogs need both physical exercise and mental enrichment. Depending on the dog, our day may include walks, fetch, training games, agility activities, puzzle toys, and playtime designed around their personality and energy level. My home is a dog-friendly environment where I focus on safety, comfort, and making dogs feel at home. Since I have a senior service dog, I take introductions seriously and make sure every dog is a good match for my home. My goal is simple: when your dog is with me, I want them to feel loved, understood, and cared for—not just watched. Pet care is an important part of my daily routine. I care for my own dogs in the morning, so I am usually available after 11 AM. Tuesdays and Thursdays are great days for daycare since I am home and able to provide attention, playtime, and companionship. I also take an evening break around 6:30 PM for my dogs’ dinner routine and am usually available again after 8 PM. I am happy to work with each client to find a schedule that fits both their pet’s needs and my availability. My goal is to provide reliable, loving care while making sure every dog feels comfortable and happy. I am a positive reinforcement dog trainer, and I use my knowledge of dog behavior to provide safe, patient, and understanding care. I focus on building trust with each dog by learning their individual personality, comfort level, routines, and needs. Safety is one of my top priorities. I am someone who pays attention to the details and notices changes that may be easy to miss, such as changes in behavior, possible ear concerns, nail issues, skin irritation, coat problems, or anything that seems unusual for that dog. I always communicate with owners if I notice something concerning so we can work together to decide the best care for their pet. I have grooming experience, including bathing, brushing, nail trims, ear cleaning, and coat maintenance. I enjoy helping dogs feel comfortable and cared for, and I understand that regular grooming is an important part of a dog’s overall well-being. I have created a dog-friendly and senior-friendly environment in my home. I have ramps, orthopedic beds, and accommodations to help small dogs, senior dogs, and dogs who may need extra support feel comfortable. I also keep dog first aid supplies available and take safety seriously. I have two furry friends of my own who enjoy keeping other dogs company and providing opportunities for safe play and companionship. Because I have a senior service dog, I take introductions seriously and make sure dogs are a good personality match before daycare or boarding. I also use separate feeding areas and safe separation when needed to help prevent stress and protect each dog’s space. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect your space and leave things the way I found them. I make sure your pet’s routine, comfort, and care are my priority. My goal is to create a safe, positive, and welcoming experience where every dog feels understood, loved, and truly cared for.

About: What sets me apart from other dog sitters is my deep understanding of dog behavior and my genuine passion for creating a safe, fun, and loving environment for every pup I care for. I don’t just “watch” dogs—I engage with them through structured play, enrichment activities, and tailored routines based on their needs and personalities. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine as a stay-at-home mom. I’m already used to maintaining a structured, nurturing environment, and that translates perfectly to caring for pets. I’m home throughout the day, so I can provide consistent attention, regular potty breaks, walks, playtime. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, my focus is always on creating a safe, loving, and stress-free environment.

About: I grew up with dogs, cats, birds, rabbits etc. I believe animals come into our lives to make it better and to give us unconditional love. I have trained all my puppies as well as cared for my parents elderly Bullmastiff. I am very sensitive to the needs of pets and can feel when something is wrong. My schedule is open Monday - Sunday, I am a stay at home fur mom and I can not wait to meet your fur baby. All of my cats and dogs are indoor. I believe that is the safest way to keep them healthy and protected. However, if your fur baby is outside I will make sure all gates, doors are closed, locked and secure!

About: Hi Rover friends! My name is Veronica, but everyone calls me V 🐾 With over 15 years of hands-on experience in veterinary medicine, I bring not only a love for animals but also professional training in both general and emergency care. I started my journey as a kennel/boarding technician at 18 and worked my way up to become a veterinary assistant—so you can trust that your fur babies are in safe, capable, and compassionate hands. Whether it’s cuddles, walks, playtime, or medical awareness, I treat every pet like they’re my own. My mission is to give your pets the same exceptional care and love I’ve given to thousands of patients over the years. ✨ Services & Details: • Doggy Daycare (Mon–Fri, 8:30 AM – 5:30 PM) 🐶 • Flexible drop-off/pick-up times available • Hosting pups up to 40 lbs • Daycare fun at Natomas Regional Dog Park 🌳 • House sitting available throughout Sacramento & Bay Area 💡 Important: Please confirm all bookings through Rover. Unconfirmed dates are not guaranteed and may be booked by someone else. Thank you for considering me—I can’t wait to meet you and your furry loved ones! ❤️🐾 I have a pretty much open schedule. As long as I have advance notice I can fit pet sitting into my schedule. Working with animals is a passion of mine. I care for each pet depending on every owners needs. From feeding, walking to administering medications (insulin/pills) to keeping each pup or kitty entertained. I can do do it!

About: After a few years focused on other animal care work, I’m happy to be actively pet sitting again. I recently moved back to Lincoln, and I will begin offering pet care services again beginning August 2026. In addition to years of pet sitting and dog walking, I have worked professionally in many animal care settings, including veterinary, sanctuary, boarding, and rescue for the last seven years. These settings have taught me the importance of prioritizing safety, observation, consistency, and following detailed care protocols accurately. I have years of experience with fearful, anxious, and reactive dogs and understand that trust cannot be rushed. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine, use their preferred treats or familiar cues, avoid known triggers, and give them the space or extra reassurance they need to feel comfortable. I also have a special interest in exotic and multi species pet care. I personally have two cats and a leopard gecko and have hands on experience and good foundational husbandry knowledge with dogs, cats, birds, reptiles, fish, and small animals. I’m open to caring for many species, and willing to learn any of their specific routine and husbandry requirements beforehand. One of my biggest priorities is following instructions carefully and accurately. I know small details can make a big difference, especially with medications, feeding routines, behavioral needs, enclosure care, or pets with specific safety precautions. I also understand how stressful it can be to leave your animals in someone else’s care. I provide regular photo updates and clear communication so you know how your pets are doing while you’re away. I work full time in animal care on Tuesdays and Thursdays through Saturdays. On those days, I’m available after work for walks, drop in visits, and overnight stays. I have more flexibility on Sundays, Mondays, and Wednesdays and can often accommodate daytime care on those days as well. I plan my Rover bookings carefully so I can give each pet the time and attention they need. I’m happy to discuss your pet’s normal routine ahead of time and make sure their care schedule is something I can reliably accommodate. For overnight stays, I do my best to keep feeding, medications, walks, and bedtime routines as close to normal as possible. Safety is always my first priority. Before opening doors or gates, I make sure pets are safely secured, and I always double-check that collars, harnesses, leashes, and other gear fit properly before leaving the home. I follow household and care instructions closely, including feeding, medications, walking precautions, behavioral triggers, enclosure care, and any special routines your pet may have. I also pay close attention to changes in behavior, appetite, mobility, bathroom habits, or anything else that may be important to communicate to you. I currently only provide care in my clients’ homes, which also allows pets to stay in the environment and routine they already know.
