Dog Walking Los Olivos

“Punctual and great communication! Highly recommend!”

About: Since a very young age (about 5+), I have been taking care of a myriad of animals and learned animal body language from them. It was incredible and I learned a lot of valuable skills from them. After that, I took up teaching myself how to train dogs (plus puppies and cats) with positive training methods. It was a lot of fun and very rewarding to see how they engage, come together with themselves, and gaining a more fulfilling life. And now I am offering pet sitting! I have a lot of time and availability to care for your pet in the comfort of their own home. *Note: Puppies must have had all 3 of their puppy shots in order for me to accept. I work from home so my schedule is very free and available from short to long stays. Perfect for people who love to travel or need consistent daily routines for their pets. I care for my client's home with respect and great care. I like to keep things clean and feeling good for everyone. The pets I will be a good friend to, treating them with kindness, play time, exercise if needed, and being consistent with their desired routine.

“Ashley came through on a last minutes reservation for me. They were able to take raider for a long walk for me and were a very nice couple. I would definitely recommend her to anyone in the area.”

About: I’ve been caring for animals my whole life—from raising animals for FFA to training my own dogs and working at an animal shelter. Animals have always been a big part of my world, and I treat every pet like family! I work Monday - Friday 7:30am to 4:30 pm I have an hour lunch and would love to take days off to help care for your furry baby’s. I plan to get more availability for the future. Your pet’s safety is my top priority. I always follow instructions closely, use secure leashes and gates, and keep a calm, watchful eye on every animal in my care. With years of hands-on experience—from shelter work to farm life—I know how to handle pets gently, responsibly, and with lots of love.

About: I have grown up with pets of all sizes and temperaments my entire life. From dogs to horses to livestock, I am very calm around new animals, even if they may be a bit anxious with new people, pets, and places. I do have my own rescue pup, Río, who loves to get outside for adventures, loves other animals, and loves to be by my side whenever possible. Whether you are in need of pet sitting, exercising, a dog daycation, and/or housesitting with your beloved pet(s), my first choice is always to have Río come along so long as that is something with which you and your pet(s) will be comfortable and enjoy. I grew up on the Central Coast and love to be outdoors and adventuring whether through hikes, long walks, eating out on pet dates at the amazing restaurants nearby, trips to the off leash beaches, or more. If that’s not your pet(s)’ speed and/or favorite things, I am also very into cozying up with them on the sofa or whatever activities may be their favorites as well. If you are in need of care for your horses or livestock, whether while looking for a house sitter or other times, I have a lifetime of experience with horses and am very able to feed, muck, hotwalk, etc. while house sitting or on a drop-in basis. I have not been riding much since returning back to the Central Coast from SF but pending the temperament and experience level necessary, after learning to ride horses much around the same time I was learning to walk, I am always open for an easy ride if needed for your horse(s) as well. Just message me and we can discuss further! Please note, if you foresee last-minute requests for daycare, check-ins, and/or dog walking being necessary in the future, please reach out to schedule a formal meet and greet anytime in advance so we may know that the pups are a good match prior to any late bookings becoming necessary. For my safety and the safety of my dogs and yours, I will not accept last-minute check-ins or dog walking requests without this meet and greet completed. Río and I always make sure to take time to get outside to exercise, take potty breaks on grass, and explore daily with an hour-2.5+ hours hike in the mornings and an hour long walk/run after work. Río and I are ideally a package deal so any dog(s), cat(s), and/or whatever pet(s) you are in need of caring for and giving some love to, please advise if they are dog-friendly and enjoy a workout but also love a good lounge throughout the day. For potty breaks and a bit of engagement during the work day, I have a privately fenced yard to pop outside for some sunshine and ball play any time throughout the day and night.

About: I provide trusted, overnight in-home pet sitting in Santa Ynez and surrounding areas. While you’re away, your pets receive loving care, companionship, walks, feeding, and medication administration if needed — all in the comfort of their own home. For travelers or busy households, I offer optional concierge services including in-home laundry, fresh linens, and light home care. Come home to happy pets, clean laundry, and a well-cared-for home! I grew up with dogs as my parent had service dogs working for the police. I will care for any dog as it was my own. I have a rescue dog, Hercules. He is an energetic siberian husky and he is the love of my life. I am very active and would love to be outside with your 4 legged friend. I'm empathetic and I pay attention. I'm working part time and have a lot of time to care for and activate your dog! I would love to take your pup on both longer hikes or strolls. I care for any pet as if it was my own. I pay attention and do my best to provide excellent care for ur best friend

“Meighan was great! She welcomed Gemma and took care of her for a few hours so we could have a nice dinner while exploring Los Olivios! We’ll definitely contact her again when we return!”

About: I’m a pet owner who has worked with Dozens of dogs and cats since the age of 10, Including Dogs of friends and neighbors, and have loved doing so every time. As a student, my schedule can differ, but I’m willing to properly communicate to make our schedules work and to prioritize you and your pet. From experience, I always approach an animal in a loving and respectful manner, keeping an eye out for potential threats to ensure the animals safety.

About: Lifelong dog owner with experience from puppies to seniors. Caring, reliable, and patient! Trusted by family, friends, and neighbors. Skilled in walks, play, and gentle, attentive care 🥰 Hi there! I am currently a student studying Acting & Musical Theatre at PCPA Conservatory, come see our shows! 🎭 My best walk times would be in the early morning and 4:30 - 6:30pm Tuesday - Friday; however, this varies weekly so I often have more time than this! Saturday, Sunday, and Mondays I am normally completely free! I’ve been around dogs for as long as I can remember, and I’m great at picking up on their little signals and quirks. Additionally, I adjust each walk to match every dog’s energy! ☀️ I keep things safe and comfy for every doggie such as checking the ground temperature, making sure they stay hydrated, and letting them enjoy plenty of sniff breaks. Whether it’s a short stroll or a long adventure, I bring happy energy, lots of love, and plenty of tail wags along the way. 🐾💛

About: I’ve always had a strong love for animals and hands on experience caring for pets. I have experience caring for dogs and cats, including feeding, walks, playtime, keeping them comfortable, and making sure they get plenty of attention and affection. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I’m happy to follow your instructions to keep your pet on their normal schedule. I’m dependable, patient, and treat every animal like they’re part of my own family. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. ❤️ I just moved here so I currently do not have a job at the moment so I will be available any time of the day you need! I have many knowledge and have been around many animals and taken care of many different types! I also was a vet tech, and I own 2 dogs and 3 cats!

About: In recent years, I have built a strong trustworthy reputation via more than 80 (yep, eighty) 5-star reviews on a leading house/pet care platform. Photos of some were in here, but the system removed them. Happy to share that information with you when we are in contact. Most sits span several weeks, with a 4-week minimum being easiest on the schedule. I do tend to book in advance. Because I have cared for senior pets (several being older than 15: both dogs and cats, some sight or hearing or limb-disabled), administered meds which also includes insulin shots, and managed various sizes and breeds, pet parents and high end homeowners appreciate this reliability and standard. In some cases, we have only Zoomed before a sit, and never met in-person. Due to great reciprocal communication, the results were wonderful. I offer experience both house & pet-sitting, and am a former (& future) homeowner. I’ve had all kinds of pets throughout my entire life. In adulthood, a Lhasa Apso was my co-pilot for 13 years, and I will have others. For now, I enjoy supporting and caring for yours. Let’s Zoom and take it from there. Looking forward. We will discuss this. Historically (for more than 20 years), I have been able to work from anywhere. We can talk through the options together. Unless you hire me for an overnight sit, I will be coming to them for drop-in or other care. I will not be bringing your pet(s) to my location.

About: Hello Families! I love all animals and ready to help care for yours while you're away! I grew up on a farm with my parents, and ever since I can remember, we've always had animals around. They ran a non-profit animal rescue for many years, and this taught me much about the responsibilities of caring for an animal. I was also able to learn about different breeds and their temperaments. Although they are nice to play with, we were also taught that with the pleasurable part, also comes the dirty work. I've cleaned much animal poop in my life! My sister and I have ridden horses since we were young, we've volunteered at different animal shelters, and we have brought injured animals into our home to take care of them. I recently graduated and received my Bachelor's degree. I'm continuing my education, which makes me available to go to your home during weekday evenings or weekends (all day). I also offer boarding at my home (24/7), which is safe and secure. I have several yards for your pet(s) to play and exercise. I can feed, administer medication if needed, exercise, clean litter-boxes, and give your pet(s) the love and attention they deserve! I understand your pet(s) have become part of your family, and I will take care of them as if they were my own! If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask! I hope to hear from you soon! Thank you, Mia

“Ellen is so good to our dog! She definitely has a way with pets.”
