Dog Walking in Laurel, Oakland

“Candice is so wonderful, kind, and respectful! She regularly helps me with my dog during the week while I am at work. I have a somewhat strict training protocol I want to follow with my dog, and Candice is respectful of it. She is experienced with dogs and quickly learned the training steps! She is reliable and very communicative. I don’t worry about my pup at all when he is in Candice’s care!”

“Mara grew up caring for animals, dogs, cats and birds. She is very responsible and cautious in her care and has cared for my animals many times over the years. Dogs and cats respond well to her. She has a calm and compassionate demeanor. I would not hesitate to use her as a sitter or walker. Sharon C”

“Galia is one of the most caring, special people I know. She is timely, thoughtful, and a great listener. She has watched our small wire-haired terrier several times. He is not the easiest of pets, he's a grump guy. She has taken such great care of him in the past, that I think he misses her more than he misses us! My husband and I can give Galia A+++.”

“They were great, I forgot my walker was going to be out of town and April was who I chose out of everyone. My dog loved her, even piddled a little bit out of excitement. My grrl was even happier when I got home so I could tell she had a good walk.”

“Great experience! Nick showed up on time, and Ash was very happy to see him . you can tell how much Nick loves dogs and cares for them. Can recommended Nick full heartedly !”

“Walker is great. He is a responsible and loving pet owner and caregiver, always puts the animals first. Your animals are in great and loving hands with Walker, you can trust him to the MAX.”

“Trinity is a professional young lady, she knew how to handle my dog Milo with such care and did such a remarkable job taking care and walking him. When I tell you he’s one wild little thing, but he came home and knocked out! She is definitely one of a kind.”

About: I have completed a dog walking certification from a program utilizing a positive reinforcement based approach. I have also studied dog behavior as well as body language. I passed and completed a course in doggy CPR. Experienced in group and solo walks as well as home care. I have just relocated back to the Bay Area from Los Angeles. When I lived in the Bay Area before I had a small business offering solo and group walks for doggies, boarding, sitting, and drop in care. Feel free to message me directly about unaltered animals and sizes. Depending on what’s going on and what other animals are with me I can make exceptions to my policies. Generally I have a huge soft spot for senior animals and tons of experience with them. I usually rescue seniors. I have also been a foster for rescues and have experience with a variety medical situations. I have a good amount of time to devote to your fur babies at the moment. There is a cat in the home I will be boarding in so doggies will have to be cat friendly. The home is warm and comfortable.

“Ashtyn is such a great dog sitter. She’s extremely reliable and I never worry when she’s watching Angel. As an anxious dog mom and someone who’s had less than ideal Rover sitter experiences it’s really nice to find someone who cares as much about my dog as me. She is super communicative, sends pics and really takes looking after my dog seriously. She has a lot of experience with large and small breeds, seniors and puppies as well as giving medication and feeding. My senior requires some patience and Ashtyn is the best!”

“Was so glad it ended up being you that walked our Sam! Love the fact that you've walked him before with Wag and hope we get you to walk him again! He seemed so satisfied when we got home last night and usually he is bouncing off the walls trying to go pee, but he was just excited to see us last night instead. That tells us you walked him well!! Thanks Adam!”

“Ethan was stellar with Hank, my senior dog. Dependable, unflappable, and kind - in other words exactly the kind of person you want taking care of your pup when you’re half way across the the country.”

“Moose and Copper LOVED meeting Becca. I loved meeting Becca. She is easy to talk to, flexible, interested in my pups and very accommodating. I think this may be the beginning a beautiful relationship!”

“I highly recommend Rob for pet sitting! He's great with dogs and cats. Many times over the years he's taken care of friends and neighbors pets while they were away and made sure they were well taken care of and also got love, play and attention. He's responsible, reliable and a true animal lover. He has cats of his own, former ferals, that he rescued and socialized. He babies them and jokes he's the neighborhood 'cat lady'. He had dogs when younger and loves spending time with friend's dogs. You can trust him to take great care of your fur babies.”

“We’re so grateful to have found Lauren. Our terrier gets so excited for her walks now and it is clear how happy she is when she comes back. Lauren is very professional and reliable, and clearly very experienced with dogs, and has overall just been a pleasure to work with. Would 100% recommend.”

About: I wanted to take a moment to express just how much I love dogs. The unwavering loyalty, boundless energy, and genuine excitement never fail to brighten my day. Wagging tails, warm cuddles, and eager eyes remind me of the simple joys in life. Dogs companionship and ability to connect on a deep level are truly special. Thank you Rover for opening up a source of love, laughter, and endless happiness in my life. I work remotely so my schedule is extremely flexible during the week aside from a few zoom meetings each day. I will be taking the dogs out for multiple walks around the neighborhood and to the local park. I live in a house with 2 small dogs already. We have a fenced yard with a nice space in the back for the pets to go potty. Yard isn’t big enough for puppy exercise but my neighborhood is a great place to take the dogs on walks.

“Masha was amazing watching over my puppy Sprite. She was very kind, caring and helped her separation anxiety. She's very detailed, timely and transparent in her operations and I would definitely recommend her services!”

“I am so lucky to have Rachel walk Percy each week! She gives me great reports on how he is doing and he just loved her immediately! I’m very grateful to have found Rachel on Rover!!”

“We’ve been using Elijah for several weeks now, and we’re so happy we found him! He is reliable, punctual, and communicates promptly. We appreciate that he takes the time to build a good relationship with our dog, and we can tell that our dog enjoys her time with him!”

“He’s great! My dog loved him right away!”

“Anjalie has been great with our two dogs! She has been patient with one dog who can be fearful and responds well to the energy of both. She has been on time, always sends pictures, and reports back on anything we might need to know. I highly reccomend her!”
