About: I have owned and cared for animals since I was four years old, and began caring for others’ pets around the age of eleven or twelve. I have experience in anything from dog walking to administering oral medication to making a pet feel at home with me. I will go the extra step to care for and protect your animals of any size and breed, and am more than excited to get to know and love all kinds of great pets. I am currently on summer break but working a part time job with variable hours. I more than likely will be able to fulfill a request, please just let me know what works best for you and I will respond as soon as possible. I have lots of experience with all kinds of animals including snakes, fish, birds, cats, and dogs. I will make sure to meet whatever needs you seek and will use everything in my knowledge to make your pets feel at home and well taken care of with me. Additionally, I am more than willing to look after the security of your home and do tasks like mail pickup and moving garbage if you request.

“Sydnie is amazing—caring, attentive and excellent at communicating. Our dog eagerly waits by the door for her and she’s truly the highlight of his day (along with the post-walk treats, of course!)”


“We were fortunate that Joy was available on short notice to walk our dog for 2 days in a row. She was reliable, showing up on time, and did a great job of handling our energetic 60lb golden doodle. We highly recommend her!”


“We’ve been so grateful to have Hanna walking our dogs, Ellie and Coco! She’s been incredibly reliable and always responsive to messages, which gives us such peace of mind. Hanna shares the sweetest photos from their walks, and it’s clear our pups adore their time with her. The best part is knowing that Ellie and Coco are in such good hands — we couldn’t ask for a better dog walker!”


About: I offer personalized care for dogs of all ages and needs, from energetic puppies to senior pups requiring extra TLC. With experience in basic puppy training and a strong focus on comfort and safety, I ensure every dog gets the attention they deserve, whether it's a playful walk or a calming cuddle session!" “Dog walking fits perfectly into my daily routine as I’m available Monday through Friday from 9 AM to 4 pm . This gives me the flexibility to dedicate my full attention to your dog, ensuring they get the exercise, love, and care they need during the day." Pet care is a natural part of my daily life. I have a fluffy French Bulldog named Henry, and we go on daily walks around Rancho Lake and visit the dog park. Henry loves meeting other dogs, so if your pup is looking for a walking buddy, I’d be happy to bring Henry along—with your permission, of course! "I take safety very seriously when walking your dog. I treat each dog like my own, ensuring they are always on a secure leash and closely monitored. I stay aware of my surroundings to avoid potential hazards and take extra precautions to make sure your dog is not only safe but also happy during our walks."

About: I can only remember life with a dog in it, my family has always had one since the day I was born. I am an active runner and walker so love getting outdoors with my family dog and friends dogs. My schedule changes weekly, but I am flexible depending on the week. I can walk mornings, afternoons, or in the evenings Monday-Friday and some weekends. I care by feeding my dog, walking my dog, taking him to the dog park, on trails, and running errands. I would like to take the dogs for a walk or exercise and return them to their home.

About: Ever since I was young, I’ve been surrounded by animals and have taken care of them with deep love and responsibility. From tiny hamsters to loyal dogs and independent cats, I’ve grown up understanding the unique needs and personalities of each type of pet. Every animal that has come into my life has been more than just a companion—they’ve been a reminder of the trust and bond that exists between humans and the animals we choose to bring into our homes. I believe animals are sacred. Once we domesticated them, we took on a serious responsibility: to treat them with kindness, to understand their needs, and to provide them with safety, comfort, and affection. They depend on us completely, and in return, they give us unwavering loyalty, joy, and emotional support. Because of this, they deserve the very best care we can offer. It’s not just about feeding and walking them, it’s about valuing their lives as we would our own. My boys mean everything to me. Deniro, Yuki, and Mochi are the reason I get up some mornings. Deniro is my old man, taking on 15 years of age. He's a King Charles Spaniel and Terrier mix. Due to his age, Deniro developed cataracts. I'm very gentle and mindful of his condition. He requires more patience if I'm brushing him or walking him because of his poor eyesight and heightened senses. Deniro is also missing some teeth so I make sure his food is soft and well mixed. Yuki and Mochi are my Persian cats. Yuki is 5 years old and Mochi is 3 years old. Since they are Persian fur requires a lot of grooming. I comb them at least once a day. Besides taking care of my pets, I love spending time with them. On top of that, they love playing with each other. I think it's so important to keep your pets enriched so they don't get sad or depressed. It not only helps them stay active, but helps my mood as well! I love my boys :) I have 3 pets, so pet care fits into my daily life very easily. I don't view them as a responsibility, but more like companions or friends. I take care of them as if they were my own and give them the treatment I would want! There will be a mutual understanding of what to expect when we discuss our expectations. I'm very flexible, so if there is anything you would like me to do or NOT to do we can discuss that on a needed basis. I believe in respecting everyones home as I would respect my own. That would mean doing the dishes, cleaning up after myself, and of course our furry friends! Every home has their own rules, but my morals and respect for each client is unwaivering.

“Jacob has done a great job handling my two large, energetic pups. He went the extra mile by reaching out that they were running low on food and offered to help make sure they were taken care of.”

About: Hey there! My name is Melanie and I'm 27 years old. I have two adorable dogs of my own, Brody and Dylan, and a sweet cat named Gravy. I have over eight years of experience caring for both dogs and cats whether that be at-home care or walking. I'm available for over-night stays, as well as drop-in visits. I have a fairly flexible schedule this summer and would be more than willing to accommodate your pet's specific needs. As a pet owner myself, I understand the importance of making sure your pets feel loved and cared for even while you're away. That's why I would not only look after them, but care for them as if they were one of my own. Thank you for your consideration! I am home from school for the summer, so my schedule allows me ample flexibility to accommodate your pet's specific care needs. This not withstanding schedule conflicts with other clients. I do not board pets in my own home, as I prefer to provide your pet with all the love and care right in their own home.

“Hilary was awesome. Great communication. She knows how to handle high energy dogs and was very professional. She went above and beyond with her services. I would highly recommend her.”


About: My years of experience have taught me that walking is way more than just exercise—it’s like a social gala for your pup! It’s essential to let your furry friend check their “p-mail” and hit “reply all” before we move on to the next exciting adventure in their inbox! I chat and interact with your dog as if they’re a little kid—full of patience and an open mind. After all, dogs are our best friends, so why not treat them like the VIPs they are? Let’s make every walk a tail-wagging good time! 🐾 Caring for pets is my primary job, and I take it seriously. I am available 365 days a year. By reserving my services, you guarantee your pet priority treatment and lots of love. I love caring for pets in the cozy comfort of their own homes! It’s so much fun to take your dog on adventures to their favorite spots, making sure they feel safe and happy. And when it comes to our feline friends, I totally respect their territory—cats are in charge! I let them set the rules, so they can feel right at home. 🐾

Very responsible, conscientious, and strives to do the very best job possible, which is his approach to his daily life and future college plans. As someone who is willing to take on challenging tasks, he was able to administer their daily meds (which can be quite difficult with cats) successfully. Along with their daily feedings, he made sure they had fresh water, kept their boxes clean and enjoyed playing with them. You can trust that your furry family will be well taken care of by him!”

Steven C.
“I have had my cat for nearly 12 years. He really is my world. I had to go up to the Oregon coast a few weeks ago and I had Steve take care of my kitty. He was very attentive and very loving. Kept the litter box scooped and kept him fed and watered. He also spent the nights here at my home so that my kitty would not be lonely. He even sent me photographs! I would highly recommend him to watch your pet, whether a dog or a cat. He’s responsible, communicative, and quite kind.”
