Dog Walking Lakeside

“Frida is very good with my timid dog, Xochitl. 😊 Xochi doesn’t open up to everyone but she comforts Xochi quickly. She loves walking with her now!”

About: I bring over 8 years of hands-on experience from owning my own dog, which has taught me everything from daily care and routines to reading a dog’s body language and understanding their needs. Along with that, I’ve also cared for friends’ pets, giving me experience with different breeds, personalities, and temperaments. I’m patient, reliable, and treat every dog like my own. Because I already care for my own dogs, pet care is a regular part of my day. I’m used to morning walks, meal times, and keeping pets on a steady routine. I’m flexible and easily make room in my weekly schedule to give each pet the time and attention they need. Whether pets stay in my home or I care for them in yours, I keep their routine consistent so they feel secure. I stick to their feeding schedule, provide regular walks, and give plenty of playtime and attention. I focus on creating a clean, safe, and loving environment and always stay in touch with updates and photos.

“Liz is fabulous. She is getting to know Shasta slowly, coming over for walks and just to hang out. We are building up to Liz staying overnight while we leave town and leave Shasta alone for the first time ever (7 years!). Liz is amazingly patient with this process knowing that Shasta is a fairly damaged rescue dog. We are extremely grateful to her for being so patient and understanding. Shasta will be in good hands.”

About: Hi there! I’ve had my own dogs and cats my whole life and have done pet sitting for over 10 years. I am also well-versed in dog training and have worked extensively with cats at a pet resort. They call me the animal whisperer. 😋 I am a freelance photographer so my schedule is very flexible. I am available on weekdays and weekends and you can guarantee you’ll get some nice photos of your furry friend while you’re away. I have a senior cat at home so I don’t allow other pets at my home but I’m available for drop ins and walk dates no problem.

“Audrey has been walking and caring for our little JRT, Fio. She is very flexible with our schedule and willing to take on more days at a moment's notice.”

“My family and I highly recommend Alexis and Adam as dog walkers! They walked my two German Shepherd mixes early in the morning for 16 consecutive days for an hour each while we were on vacation. Always on time, always submitting report cards with photos and the route they walked. On top of that, my dogs, who are rescues with shyness or aggression toward strangers AND severe dog reactivity on walks, LOVED Lex and Adam! As a professional dog trainer and walker myself, I’m extremely careful with people who interact with my dogs, and Lex and Adam exceeded my expectations! It’s clear to me that they take caring for their clients’ dogs seriously and both are extremely nice and personable. Thank you Lex and Adam!!”

About: Hi! I'm new to the Rover app, but I'm not new to caring for animals. I've always had a natural connection with animals and they seem to gravitate toward me wherever I go. I’m a stay at home mom of a 3 and 5 year old so I am always home and always active and my fiance is home while I run errands. We have a decent size fenced yard where your animal can get some energy out while staying safe. I truly believe animals are family, and I care for every pet as if they were my own child. I'm highly communicative, reliable, and genuinely empathetic. I pay close attention to each pet's unique personality and needs, making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you're away. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playtime, or just having a calm companion, I'll make sure they receive the care and attention they deserve. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your furry family member. That's why I'll keep you updated with plenty of photos, videos, and messages throughout each visit, so you always know how your pet is doing and can enjoy those special moments even while you're apart. If you're a busy family looking for a dependable dog walker or pet sitter who will treat your pet with patience, kindness, and lots of love, I'd be honored to help. I can't wait to meet you and your best friend! I am a mom of two girls. I have a flexible schedule and I’m willing to do whatever’s necessary to make sure your pet is taken care of. I’m a hair stylist on weekends and I love when people bring their dogs to their appointments. Rover is great way for me to play with animals, get some exercise, and make some extra income. Just message me 😊 I make sure the dog goes outside to use the bathroom . Make sure the food and water bowl is always fresh and full. Engage and play with your pet. Chill, lay down, and watch tv together. I absolutely love playing tug of war with dogs so make sure to pack that toy in their overnight bag LOL. If I were to come to your house I would let you know exactly when I enter and when I leave and give you updates on your pet .

About: Rescued my current 5 year old dog from being abandoned in Tijuana. Spent every day with her since, I have so much love for animals especially dogs. I’m currently working part time and am looking for a side hustle that can help others and something that I love at the same time. I have 1 medium sized dog and 3 cats, I know how they both can be, I’ve seen the good and the bad and know how to handle situations.

About: I’ve had a guinea pig, a bunny, and 2 dogs. I’ve always been an animal person. And I help my friends out by taking care of there pets. It depends on the my work day sense I do freelance contracting for production work. But I would have to what day you would want to book me for and times. It depends on how friendly the animal is and how many days I am pet sitting for. But I will feed, bathe, play and be around to watch what they do.

About: For the past 14 years, my world revolved around my dog, Zuri. Sadly, she passed away in April, and while I’m not ready to welcome another dog into my life just yet, I realized how much I miss spending time with them. Caring for dogs has never felt like work to me. I’m naturally attentive, patient, and deeply attuned to animals. I tend to notice the little things; when a dog needs a slower pace, extra reassurance, more water, a sniff break, or simply someone calm to help them feel safe. Zuri taught me that every walk is the highlight of a dog’s day, not just another task to check off a list. Whether your dog is energetic, shy, anxious, or a senior who needs a gentler pace, I’ll care for them with the same love, presence, and respect I gave my own. I know how much trust it takes to leave your best friend in someone else’s care, and I don’t take that responsibility lightly. My goal is for you to feel completely at ease, knowing your dog is safe, understood, and genuinely loved while we’re together. I’m also available for boarding and overnight care, either in my home or yours. I’m home throughout the day, so your dog will have plenty of companionship and attention. I have experience caring for senior dogs, administering medications when needed, and understanding that every dog has their own personality, pace, and emotional needs. I have a flexible schedule and genuinely enjoy being active, so dog walks fit naturally into my daily routine. Walking has been an important part of my own life for years, and after losing my beloved dog of 14 years a few months ago, spending time with dogs has become something that brings me joy and healing. I’m reliable, communicative, and committed to making sure your dog gets the exercise, enrichment, and attention they deserve. I understand that trusting someone with your dog is a big decision because I know what it’s feels like to love a dog like family. I always prioritize safety by following your dog’s routine, using secure leash handling, paying close attention to their body language, and adapting to their individual personality and energy level. Whether your dog is playful, shy, anxious, or a senior who needs a slower pace, I’ll care for them with patience, kindness, and respect. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel confident they’re in good hands.

“Alexis was awesome and very responsive as I contacted her the day before. She took great pictures of Mika and will ask for her. This is my first time using Rover and overall experience was great. Will be using her in the future again!”

About: I have hands-on experience caring for pets through personal and family settings, including feeding, walking, basic grooming, playtime, and providing companionship. I am attentive, patient, and mindful of each pet’s unique needs and routines. I understand the importance of safety, consistency, and trust when caring for animals. What sets me apart is my empathy, reliability, and genuine love for animals. I take the time to observe behavior, respond calmly to challenges, and ensure pets feel comfortable and cared for. I am highly adaptable, organized, and committed to following instructions closely while maintaining clear communication with pet owners. I treat every pet with the same care and respect I would give my own. I feel I can fit pet care into my weekly/daily routine because I’m free most of the time and Ive been looking for something productive too do that I’d actually enjoy I treat every pet with patience, kindness, and respect, whether they are in my home or a client’s home. I focus on creating a safe, calm, and comfortable environment by following routines, paying close attention to each pet’s needs, and ensuring they feel secure and cared for. I handle pets gently, maintain cleanliness, and prioritize their well-being, happiness, and safety at all times.

About: Hi! I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for over 6 years, and honestly, I treat every pet like they’re mine. Not just fed and walked, but actually comfortable, safe, and happy while you’re gone. Every pet is different. Some dogs want to run and play the whole time, some want a slow sniffy walk. Some pets are shy and need to warm up first, that’s totally fine, I let them set the pace. I stick closely to your routine and instructions, because keeping things normal is what helps pets relax when you’re away. I also notice the little things, changes in mood, appetite, or energy, and I’ll always tell you about them. You’ll get photos and updates every visit, so you never have to wonder how they’re doing. Your pet’s in good hands. Can’t wait to meet them! 🐾 I have a very open and flexible schedule. I can easily work around your pet’s routine, whether that means early mornings, evenings, or multiple check-ins throughout the day. Since I’m not juggling a busy schedule right now, I’m able to spend more quality time with your pet instead of rushing in and out. If your pet wants playtime, company, or just someone to sit nearby while they do their own thing, I’m there for it. I’m very mindful of creating a calm and safe environment, especially since pets can be sensitive to changes. I make sure doors and windows are secure, feeding areas are clean, and everything stays consistent with what your pet is used to. I pay attention to behavior and give pets space when they need it, but I’m also happy to sit with them, play, or just exist in the same space if that’s what they prefer. Sometimes the best way to bond with a pet is to not try too hard. I treat your home with respect and follow your instructions closely so everything stays exactly how you like it.

About: Being raised in the rural parts of El Cajon, with my mom being apart of the AKC- American Kennel Club, I spent a lot of time around animals. Learning at a young age how to properly interact with dogs. I have walked up to three small dogs at the same time that belonged to my land-lord of 5 years. Even though these three dogs were considered aggressive toward other people, they loved and trusted me and I loved them back. I enjoy being around small animals and spending quality time with them. I am retired from the County of San Diego where I worked for 16 years. I am very flexible, reliable and punctual. I am looking forward to meeting you and your fur babies.

About: Ive taken care of dogs and cats since I was very young! I grew up fostering animals and taking care of our own. I am great with dogs of all sizes and breeds, but have a special love for big breeds as ive had akitas most of my life! I worked at petsmart for 2 years, so I got to work with dogs, cats, and exotics nearly every day! I also have a variety of animals of my own, including a rabbit, a gecko, and some tree frogs! I have a very fun home🏡☺️ I also have some light experience with grooming and lots of bathing experience! I currently work as a respite care worker for individuals with disabilities, so my schedule is very variable!😊 I schedule week by week so please feel free to send me a request! Best days to reach out ahead of time for me are Sundays and Mondays as I usually don’t have my week fully scheduled out yet by then. 😊 I will always aim to provide a fun, safe, and enriching environment for your pet whether it’s a pop in visit, a walk or whatever your personal pet needs are!

About: We have a 13 year old Golden Chow who is part of our family. We have taken care of her since she was 3 months old and treat her like one of our kids. We love hosting other dogs who quickly become an extension of our family. We enjoy taking them on walks, playing with them in our fully fenced in backyard and giving lots of cuddles. Our children know how to approach dogs and respect the dogs' boundaries. We can't wait to meet you and your pup! My wife stays home full time with our children and is able to care for your dog around the clock. We generally take the dogs for a walk twice a day and allow frequent potty breaks in our backyard. We have a fenced in yard in which your dog can roam around safely. Your dog will be able to either play outside or inside. We have a designated indoor space for your dog to sleep; just provide the bed and/or blankets to keep your pup comfortable. We generally only take one dog at a time. However, we will make exceptions from time to time and will let you know if we will be boarding more than one during your requested time.
