Dog Walking In Las Positas

“I’m so happy we met Cheryl! I’ve never hired a dog walker before, and Stanley is used to getting really good exercise each day, and I don’t expect most people to give him as much as we do. She did and I appreciated it so much! She communicated well and loved my sweet dog, so I give her high marks and will definitely use her again.”

“Aimee is awesome. My dog, Tico, loved her. She is very friendly, reliable, consistent, mature, punctual and a good communicator. She walked Tico for me each day for almost 3 weeks due to foot surgery. I would trust Aimee to take care of my dog if I needed to travel, too.”

“Mike was responsible and great walking our dogs. He loves animals and makes sure they are well exercised. Definitely will use him again!”

About: As someone who grew up on a ranch and has never not had a dog since birth, I truly love animals. I have firsthand experience living with and caring for both dogs and cats, and I would love to extend that same care to your furbabies. Animals I’ve cared for include dogs and cats (of course), sheep, cows, fish, ducks, and tree frogs! My golden retriever (Bandit) and tabby cat (Tiger) say hi! I have a super flexible schedule! I’m currently working an events-based position every few weekends, but other than that all my time can be dedicated to caring for your furbabies like they’re one of my own! Even on weekends where I have an event to work, I still have plenty of free time, so never hesitate to reach out if you’re in need of pet care anytime. I’ve had 6 dogs in my lifetime and have pet-sitted many others, so I am used to caring for dogs of all personalities and rules. Indoor outdoor, crate trained or not, energetic and playful or relaxed and sleepy, I am adaptable and here to do what is best for you and your pet!

“Ryan is a great dog walker for all sizes, personalities and ages. Our young puppy adores him! Ryan tires him out and reinforces our training.”

About: I have proudly cared for my own dog for the past 9 years as well as my family and friend’s dogs as well, giving me hands-on experience with daily walks, feeding, companionship, and overall pet care. I am a beginner to Rover, however I genuinely love animals and understand the importance of providing them with patience, attention, and a safe, caring environment. I treat every pet as if they were my own and strive to make them feel comfortable, happy, and loved. Pet care is already a regular part of my daily routine, as I have cared for my own dog for the past 9 years. I work full time during the week, but I am available after 6PM on weekdays for walks, drop-in visits, and quality time with pets. On weekends, I have open availability and can dedicate more time to longer walks, playtime, and personalized care. I enjoy spending time with animals and make it a priority to ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their established routine as closely as possible to help pets feel comfortable and secure. I ensure they have fresh water, are fed according to instructions, receive plenty of attention, exercise, and bathroom breaks, and are always kept safe. I also provide updates and photos so owners can have peace of mind while they are away. My goal is to treat every pet with the same love, patience, and care that I give my own dog.

About: I have been around and cared for dogs since I was in middle school. I have a deep care for dogs and believe giving them the absolute best life while they are with us is the only way to engage with them. I have a knack for training, it somewhat comes natural to me and I have the patience for it. Im happy to work with your dog to either reinforce or teach commands/tricks. Recently, I left my corporate job. I am taking time off to assess my next career move. Which means I have wide open flexibility and need to take walks to keep thinking. What a better way to do that than to have a walking companion! I do not have pets which means all of my attention goes to yours! There are two couches, a bed and a patio for your babe to enjoy. I am available around the clock to play, walk, teach.

“Dawer has been walking Honey for a couple of weeks. Honey has had some health issues - however! Right abt the time of her walk w Dawer - she is on high alert - waiting for him! Dawer couldn’t be a better choice for dog walking. We are VERY lucky to know him and to be on his schedule. He is compassionate, bright and professional!🦮♥️🦮”

About: My first friend and best friend was a sweet as pie cockapoo named Pinky. I've grown up with dogs and cats my whole life and currently share my life with a beautiful, sweet, and athletic pitbull mix named Jackie. Jackie loves to make new friends and since I have a fenced in yard my home is perfect for playdates! Hoping to meet and care for some great animals here. I work from home full time. I run my own business and have a flexible schedule. I’m very active and spend a lot of time at the beach. I have a fenced in private yard with lots of space for doggies to play. I live in an upstairs unit of a duplex and my downstairs neighbors have a small pug.

“James was great for Apache. He was on time, communicated throughout and sent me lots of photos which I appreciated very much. James even went out of his way to take Apache for a few car rides (with my permission of course) for different walk destinations. Overall James has been amazing! I will definitely get James to walk Apache again and recommend him to anyone.”

“Crispin was great and our dog fell in love with her right away! Great communication and genuinely cared for his well-being.”

“Jacob is awesome. He’s on time and takes Apache on different walks which I appreciate. He takes care of Apache’s walking needs even when I had something come up last minute! I would recommend you use Jacob to watch your dog anytime!”

About: I’m reliable and trustworthy, with experience caring for a variety of pets, from small dogs to active 1-year-old labs, as well as cats and chickens. I’ve watched multiple pets at the same time and can handle different needs, including giving medication or keeping up with high-energy animals. I’ve been watching pets since high school and grew up around dogs and cats, so being around animals comes naturally. I’m responsible, patient, and caring, and I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m a full-time working professional with a very flexible schedule that will allow me to drop in during the day or work from home if an all day shift is needed. Depending on my schedule I may be available for short notice requests and I don’t mind same day cancellation as long as there is no travel involved. I try to treat pets like family, giving them attention, patience, and care so they feel safe and comfortable. Every animal is different, so I adjust to their personality. Whether that is lots of playtime, quiet companionship, or giving them space when they need it. Animals are very intuitive, and I’ve found that bringing calm, loving energy helps them open up and feel at ease. I always pay attention to their body language to make sure they’re happy and well cared for.

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover based in Santa Barbara with experience caring for small and medium-sized dogs of all ages and personalities. I have a mini Australian Shepherd, so I’m very familiar with high-energy breeds and the exercise, structure, and attention they need to thrive. In addition to active dogs, I also have experience caring for anxious dogs who need extra patience and reassurance, as well as senior dogs who benefit from a gentler pace and attentive care. I understand that every dog has unique needs, and I always adjust my approach to help them feel comfortable, safe, and happy. I love spending time outdoors and enjoy taking dogs on long walks, hikes, and visits to the dog beach (with owner approval). Whether your pup prefers a leisurely stroll, a game of fetch, or an adventurous outing, I’m happy to match their energy level and routine. My goal is to make your dog feel loved and well cared for while you’re away. I’ll treat them like one of my own and keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind. (: Pet care is something I genuinely enjoy and naturally incorporate into my daily routine. For the next two weeks, I’m available for walks and drop-in visits in the mornings before 11 AM and evenings after 5 PM. Beginning in July, I’ll have open availability and a flexible schedule. I always prioritize a pet’s safety, comfort, and routine. In a client’s home, I follow their instructions closely regarding feeding schedules, walks, medications, potty breaks, and any house rules. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and affection while maintaining the routines they’re familiar with.

“joey always goes above and beyond for my pup norman! he cares for him, like he’s his own! he also follows great instructions and is INCREDIBLY reliable.”

About: Although I don’t have any formal dog experience, I have grown up around dogs all my life. I have experience house/dog sitting for my friends and neighbors in high-school, and even more experience taking care of my families big dogs. Further, I have some experience taking care of senior dogs, as my late Akita spent nearly 5 years on intensive medication. I love playing with dogs, taking them on walks, going to the dog park, and making life good in the safety of their own homes. I’m a student at Santa Barbara City College, but my flexible schedule allows me to spend plenty of time with your animals! I have at least 2-4 hours a day available to spend playing with, walking, or otherwise taking care of your babies. I prioritize pet safety in my care. I listen carefully to your rules about where the animal is/isn’t allowed to go, and can provide intensive support for your animals. I make sure to spend time building trust with the animal using treats or soothing methods upon meeting them, so that they feel safe and comfortable around me.

About: I used to walk and take care of my neighbors dog while also in school I would take her on hour long walks and then hangout with the dog until her owner was off work we both didn’t wanna leave the poor puppy home alone!! Every day I walk my little dog around the neighborhood or at sbcc he’s 18 so it’s harder to take him on long walks but I’d love to go on long walks my neighbors dog until she moved away. I’m not sure if I can keep another dog with me unless they are able to get along with my dog but I can house sit and stay with the dog or come every day to check on dog and hangout

“Thank you Megan! Art”

About: I have always had pets of my own, and began caring for other peoples' pets while I was in high school. I have taken care of all kinds of animals with a variety of needs. I strive to go above & beyond what is expected while caring for your beloved companions. My goal is to make them as comfortable and happy as possible when their people are away. When I commit to do something, I do it throughly & full heartedly. I am lucky to have a flexible schedule, which enables me to provide care for pets at just about any time needed. Caring for my own pets is integrated into my daily schedule so integrating additional pets comes very naturally. I'm happy to travel to the location your pet feels most comfortable, as well as providing pet taxi/transport. I do have a small fenced backyard, but I prefer not to board pets overnight in my own home. I am experienced and happy to pet/house sit during your work trip or vacation. I’m very neat and can ensure you'll return to a clean home.
