About: Hi! I’m a dependable and caring animal lover with experience taking care of dogs and other pets of all sizes and personalities. I understand how important it is to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I have a Miniature Australian Shepherd of my own, so I’m very familiar with energetic, intelligent dogs and the attention and care they need. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, overnight care, or just keeping your pet company, I’ll treat them like family and make sure they get plenty of love and attention. I work part-time for myself, so I have a flexible schedule and can usually be available as long as I receive notice ahead of time. I genuinely enjoy being active with dogs, whether that means long walks, playing fetch, going to the park, or helping them burn off energy and stay happy. I love spending time with animals and making sure they get plenty of exercise, attention, and care while you’re away. When caring for your dog in your home, I will make sure to follow all of your instructions closely to keep your pet comfortable and maintain their normal routine. I treat every home with respect and ensure everything stays clean, safe, and exactly how you left it. I will provide fresh water, regular feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and lots of attention so your dog feels relaxed and secure in their familiar environment. My goal is to reduce any stress your pet may feel while you’re away by giving them consistent care, affection, and companionship right in their own home. For longer stays I prefer my dog accompany me. She is 1.5 years old, trained, and extremely friendly.
“Kevin is THE BEST!! I have a Husky who can be a little crazy on the leash so I always worry. I had to travel for 24 hours and asked Kevin to come walk and check on Mac a few times. He was super communicative which made me feel that Mac was in good hands and that I could trust him to keep Mac safe. I came back to a very happy, chill doggo :)”
“Hannah was an amazing dog walker for my 3.5 month old Yorkie Winnie! Hannah was also my first Rover and I was so happy to have chosen her! She was on time, walked/ran Winnie for the full hour, and my puppy came back to me so happy and exhausted. Hannah told me that despite Winnie being super fearless, she made sure she didn't get dangerously close to any huge dogs:) Definitely will be calling you again Hannah, thank you so much!!!!”

About: I love all types of animals! I grew up on a farm where we had dogs, cats, horses, goats, and bunnies. I don’t currently have any pets, so my abundance of love for them is waiting to be shared with yours. I live on a boat in Marina del Rey and am available most of the time! I am often available same day, but can schedule out far in advance, also. If I’d be looking after your pets in your home, I’m happy to keep any size! I live on a boat, so small or medium dogs or cats are preferred if they are needing to come to my home. There is a great boardwalk for walks where they will see lots of other dogs, and a dog run at the end of the boardwalk. There is also a dog park not far, and I’m happy to take them there if you’d like. The beach is only a 10 minute walk, so if they enjoy that, that’s available as well.

Nicholle was extremely communicative and helped us out with dog walks last minute. I felt confident that the dogs were well taken care of, and she helped bring in packages and top up their water too. She was even understanding when I ended up canceling one of our scheduled walks last minute. Thanks Nicholle!
Nick is great!! Sweet guy, easy going and great communication. I have two Shar Pei and he handled them beautifully. Dialed-in to the dogs and physically strong which puts me at ease since you never know what you can encounter on walks around Venice. Will for sure hire him again. 5 stars!
My dog Hope had a wonderful first walk with her. She was able to help us on short notice, which we really appreciated, and she took Hope out for a full hour with great care and attention. Even though it was her first time walking Hope everything went smoothly and we felt completely satisfied. Hope came back happy, calm, and well cared for. I’d gladly book with her again.
