Dog Walking in Long Beach

About: "Experienced Pet Care Specialist: Dedicated to Providing Exceptional Love and Attention for Your Furry Friends! Plus I take videos of our walks and send them to you! Given my passion for personal growth, family, and supporting communities, pet care fits seamlessly into my life by allowing me to connect with others and their pets, providing a service that brings joy and peace of mind to pet owners.

“Kayla was great with my rambunctious Dalmatian! She ensured to tire her out each walk. I received several photos and a detailed description each time. She even asked before treating my pup to a pup cup, which I thought was very thoughtful. I would definitely use her in the future!”

About: I’ve been dog walking and pet sitting for friends :) and family for over 9 years. I am comfortable handling all dogs, cats & and even bunnies!!! I truly love them all! I believe man’s best friend deserves plenty of love, attention, and care. :). I understand that busy schedules can sometimes make it hard to give pets all the time they need, and I’d love to help provide that extra support. Whether it’s playtime, potty breaks, walks, cuddles, or companionship, I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I’m currently back in school full-time pursuing another degree, and when I’m not in class or studying, you’ll usually find me outside enjoying the sunshine. I have fond memories of working for a family friend as a dog walker during my undergraduate years, and now that I’m back in school as a postgraduate student, I’d love the opportunity to help fellow pet owners again. I’m very dependable, detail oriented, and a strong rule follower who appreciates clear instructions and routines. I will carefully follow your pet care guidelines to make sure your pups stay safe, happy, and comfortable while in my care. I’m also mindful about respecting your home and ensuring both your dogs and cats are well cared for every step of the way.

About: I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities, and for the past two years I’ve been dedicated to pet sitting with a lot of love and attention. I live with Hickory, my sweet 3-year-old husky–lab mix—he gets along with everyone, loves outdoor activities, and brings a calm, friendly energy to every dog he meets. I’ve helped neighbors, friends, and family with walks, feeding, playtime, and daily routines. I always make sure each pup feels safe, loved, and excited to be here! I currently work part-time, which gives me plenty of free hours to spend with your pups. I’m available for boarding on weekends and on weekdays depends on the day. Whether your dog needs an energetic walk, extra playtime, or just some cozy company, I can easily fit their needs into my routine. I live in a cozy apartment with a private patio where dogs can relax, sniff around, and enjoy some fresh air in a safe space. My building also has its own dog park, which is perfect for playtime, exercise, and safe socialization. Hickory, my sweet and friendly 3-year-old husky–lab mix, loves meeting new friends and brings a calm, social energy to visiting pups. I’m very attentive to routines, safety, and each dog’s individual needs—I can follow specific instructions, keep things peaceful for shy dogs, or provide extra activity for energetic pups. If your dog needs crate time, I can easily accommodate that. My goal is to make every dog feel comfortable, secure, and truly cared for.

“Jessica stepped up to help out while Calli dog's regular walker has been on leave. She gives great feedback, is prompt, and you can tell she really cares about doing a great job! Happy to add you to the team! Too bad we're moving out of LB soon :(”

“Clementine saved the day!!! I am unable to walk June due to an injury and don’t always have coverage. Clementine was able to accommodate a last minute walk for me while others could not. Super friendly and professional, Clementine handled June (my jumpy heeler mix) with great care and ease. I could tell June was super happy and they were new best friends when they returned. I highly recommend Clementine for your pets needs.”

“Cathy was extremely professional and responsive. I felt completely at ease knowing that she was looking after my dog while I was out of town and I wouldnt hesitate rebook with her 🙂”

About: All my life I have loved and cared for animals of all kinds and ages including dogs, cats, birds, bunnies, hedgehogs, hamsters, guinea pigs, turtles, fish, and even horses. I trained and fostered dogs before a brief stint abroad where I just completed my Master's degree. As much as I love walks and playtime, I am not afraid of the messy and equally important side of pet care. I have taken care of animals with special needs and medication requirements. I always maintain general pet hygiene including baths, brushing, ear and teeth cleaning, and proper tic removal. Whatever your pet may need or quirks they may have, I will be happy to make sure they are taken care of. I just moved back to CA and am working as a part-time nanny and freelance film crew which means I make my own schedule and have the flexibility to not only care for your fur family but also focus all my time and energy on them when I do so. As a house sitter, I am here to provide pet care and overall home care. Your pets will be my highest priority, of course, but I'm here to maintain your home and help provide peace of mind while you are away.

“Andrea was a fantastic dog walker. She took my pup on great excursions through the neighborhood and sent pics and updates.”

“Leigh Ann has been wonderful. She’s shown great care and patience with my senior chihuahua. I really appreciate how much she communicates to let me know he’s safe and sound. She also takes the best pictures! Thank you Leigh Ann!”

About: I’m new to Rover but not new to caring for pets. I grew up with dogs and understand how important they are to families. I treat every pet like my own – with patience, attention, and lots of love. I send regular photo updates so you always feel comfortable while you’re away. I’m responsible, punctual, and truly enjoy spending time with animals :) I’m currently in college, and pet care fits naturally into my routine. I’m consistently available Mondays, Fridays , and weekends from 11am–5pm, which allows me to give pets my full attention during visits, walks, or drop-ins without rushing. I’m reliable about showing up on time and sticking to agreed schedules. I live in a large, clean apartment and keep a calm, organized environment. I’m attentive to cleanliness, routines, and safety, and I always follow an owner’s instructions closely.

“very flexible with her time”

About: I think what sets me apart from other sitters is my determination, admiration, and respect for all. I take all comments and concerns as a growing opportunity for my own experience and also to better the experience of your pets. I work graveyard 5 days a week, and I find myself wanting to detach and find comfort in another opportunity as well as keeping my original job. I am good with communication and will always find a way to work around my schedule, compromise, while also taking consideration of the owners schedule. I will first make sure your pet is comfortable with me in their presence and asking the owners about their personality and what the pets routine is throughout the day/night. I am a list person and will always make sure to check all the boxes as needed. While also developing a kind friendship with your pet.
