Dog Walking in Lockwood Tevis, Oakland

“Laura was a savior for us at the last minute when my wife had a leg injury and couldn't walk our pup. She was friendly and on time. We'd definitely request her again!”

About: I’ve loved animals my entire life! I’ve always had a pet and they’ve ranged from chickens to spiders. I started pet sitting when I was 16 and am currently working at a dog daycare/boarding place and am a dog handler that will love and care for your pups no matter age or size! :))<3 Apart from being a student (on break) I’m also working part-time at a dog daycare on the weekends so during the week I’m usually free! When pups are in my care it’s my priority to help them feel safe and comfortable at home no matter how tedious or time consuming it will be!<33

About: Hi! My name is Jasmin, I am 22 years old and live in Oakland, Ca. I have experience with dogs as I own one myself and most of my family own dogs themselves. I have experience with puppies, adults, small, and medium sized dogs. I’ve always had patience and sympathy for animals as they are also living creatures with emotions. From pugs to pitbulls I care for dogs as if they were all mine! I am currently looking for a side job and found this site which I think would be a perfect side hustle as I love dogs and have enough free time ! I also have my own car so mobility won’t be an issue. I live in a house with a backyard that has plenty of room and toys!! It is wooden fenced up so there’s no running away from this home ! All dogs are received with love as I understand how cruel the outside world can be to our fur babies.

“I was so grateful for Iryna being available at the last minute to walk my large puppy for 5 days as I was recovering from the flu. I mentioned that he was a little shy around strangers and she was quick to suggest a meeting beforehand. She earned my puppy's trust after that and he happily obliged to go on his walk with her the next few mornings. Thank you Iryna! We hope you'll be available the next time we need you!”

About: i’ve taken care of pets for around 8 years maybe more. i’ve taken care of dogs, cats, guinea pigs, hamsters, fishes, chinchillas and would love to take care of more! I know how to give pets medication from pills to liquid and more. I’ve also taken care of pets from babies to adults! I’m available during the weekends and weekdays from 6pm and after since i’m an after school teacher! i could also do mornings depending on what time since im also enrolled in college! I love pets, giving them lots of attention, walks, meals and even training! Love giving updates to the clients and showing them what their furry friends are doing!

About: Hi there, my name is Sheelah. I've grown up with animals my whole life, but had to leave them behind once I started college. In the years since, I have developed a passion for caring for other people's animals, and get a lot of satisfaction from providing quality reliable care that puts pet-parents at ease. While growing up, at any given time we'd have 2-4 birds, 2-3 dogs (Rhodesian Ridgebacks and one German Shepard) and up to 5 cats (we took in the stray "foreclosure kitties"). I'm well versed in all forms of animal care, including the ominous tasks of bathing cats and administering medications via food or water. I have over a decade of informal experience walking dogs of about 100 pounds, and am quite comfortable with animals of all sizes. I'm a marathon-runner, so even a full day of the most energetic pups can't tire me out. I've always treated my pets like family and will show the same respect and consideration for yours! My schedule varies depending on which city I'm working in, but I love animals and they are a priority throughout my daily routine. As long as I have 24 hours notice prior to a scheduled walk, I can make it work. My primary job is remote (I work in Environmental Justice, primarily grant-writint and organizing) so I have some flexibility with my schedule. I have completed over 60 sits on TrustedHousesitter in the last 3 years. Afternoons and evenings are usually the best times for walks, but I can accommodate an early-riser if needed. I'm experienced with reactive dogs and am comfortable walking multiple dogs at once (even large breeds) but do let me know if your pup needs a solo walk and I will ensure that they get that. My top priorities are always the health and safety of the animals I care for. I like to meet and greet the dogs I walk with the owner present first, if possible, so they can establish familiarity with my scent and presence. I'm comfortable walking/caring for reactive dogs, and love high-energy animals that need a lot of exercise. It's tick and foxtail season, and I always check the dogs I care for for both of those after every walk.

“Maia was great! Very friendly and you can tell she loves animals. She went out of her way to make sure my often anxious dog felt comfortable around her. Recommend.”

“Sage had a wonderful time and was tuckered out after her walks.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of different kinds. My love for pets have been for as long as I can remember! Growing up, I have personally cared for medium-sized dogs, specifically a German shepherd and Pitbull, and also 3 different cats. I recently have lived in a house with 5 pit bulls and helped walk, feed and bathe each one for over a year. I currently do not own a pet, but am itching to own one soon. For now, I am happy to assist in bringing comfort and joy into your pet’s life. Anything to help make a family's home easier is what I strive for. I am currently working full time, but have a flexible work schedule that can accommodate to feeding/walking times. I am looking for anyone interested in board & care at my home (limit 2 dogs), occasional overnight or drop in pet-sitting, dog walks, feeding and/or bathing care for your pet. I live in a house with a fenced yard. I offer a safe space to care for your pet. I live with my husband who is also a pet lover. It will help us get out of the house for necessary walks and overall care. Please let me know if your dog is friendly with other dogs as I can host up to two dogs at a time.

About: Our pets are family. My approach is a balance of attention and simple structure that makes for happy socialization. My partner and I have always had cats and dogs and I have experience with everything from puppyhood to the special healthcare challenges of senior pets (including administration of oral meds and injected insulin) I used to walk dogs back in college as a part-time job. Now, I am excited to make some new 4-legged friends and get out for some exercise together. I work from home part-time and with a very flexible schedule. I do long walks in the morning and afternoon and, if staying with us, in addition to walks, your doggie will have full access to the yard during the day to sunbathe and play. If house sitting at yours, I will be on hand with your pet at a minimum in the morning, for a few hours mid-day, and then all evening and night. We have a large fenced yard and two small, friendly pups (9lb young female yorkie and 12lb female coton de tulear) to play with. "The girls" are not crated at night, but I am happy to set up your pup's normal sleeping area if staying with us. For dog walking, I do 30-45 minute adventures with priority given to clients located in Oakland's Laurel, Dimond, Maxwell Park, and Redwood Heights neighborhoods. Ideally, your dog loves walking with some friends, but we can customize for personal pup needs.

About: Lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes—from energetic Rat Terriers to strong and loyal Rottweilers! I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 8, including feeding, walking, bathing, administering medicine, and even helping raise puppies. I’ve raised my dogs from puppies to seniors, caring for them lovingly throughout their lives. I also have experience with cats and small pets like hamsters! Since I don’t have pets of my own right now, I’d love to give your furry friend all the love and care they deserve—just like family. Plus, I love taking walks, so your pup will get plenty of exercise and attention! I work the graveyard shift at the airport, so I have plenty of availability during the day! I’m usually free after 9-10 AM for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting. My schedule is super flexible, and I’m also happy to take dogs on relaxing evening walks around 6-7 PM. Whether your pup needs a midday stroll, a cuddle buddy while you’re away, or a late-night walk, I’ve got you covered! Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets. I always ensure they are comfortable, secure, and well-supervised, whether in my home or a client’s. I follow any specific instructions given by pet parents, including feeding schedules, medication, and exercise needs. On walks, I use secure leashes and keep a close eye on surroundings to ensure their safety. In clients’ homes, I respect their space by keeping things clean and tidy while giving their pets the love and care they deserve. My goal is to create a safe, loving environment so both pets and their owners feel at ease!

“Anais is consistently punctual, helpful, and thinks critically about what might be beneficial for your pet. She is my go-to Rover partner and I never have to worry when she’s on the schedule to walk my dog!”
