Dog Walking Menlo Park

About: I've been an animal lover for as long as I can remember. My first dog was a Chihuahua who lived to be 18, so I learned a lot about caring for senior dogs and making sure they stay comfortable as they grow older. I've also grown up around horses and farm animals, and I even had a leopard gecko for a couple years. Most of my friends and family have dogs too, so I've spent plenty of time around all kinds of personalities and energy levels. Being around animals has always been something I enjoy! I'm a full time college student, so I have lots of extra time to care for your beloved companions! I have my own transportation and extremely flexible times. I live in an apartment with my Belgian Malinois, so I know firsthand how important exercise, structure, and routine can be, especially for high-energy dogs! I'm very organized and always do my best to stick to each pet's normal schedule so they feel comfortable and at home.

“Hilary was my first Rover experience and I think possibly the best I could hoped for. To say my dogs loved her is an understatement. She was on time, friendly, communicative and loving to my girls. All of the worry of having someone take care of my pets disappeared immediately upon meeting her. We wish we could give her more than 5 stars. Would recommend to everyone!”

“Super grateful for the wonderful walks and attention Logan gave my dog - she was super happy coming back from walks and I knew she was in safe hands while I was away”

“Sarah was amazing! She was interactive with my pups and patient and willing to come out and meet them and get to know their personalities. Will definitely be using her in the future.”

About: Hi! I've had my cat Olive for 11 years and my dog Bel for 3 years. I have also taken care of close to 70 foster animals mostly kittens, with a few medical fosters, and behavioral issues along the way. I have taken courses on behavioral training for dogs as my own dog is reactive towards dogs, so I am very familiar with dog reactivity. I currently run a small 1 man business from my home and have control over my schedule to provide care to other animals regularly. I also foster other animals from time to time. My own dog is reactive and high energy and needs 3 walks a day usually with a lot of play. My cat is a large maincoon that requires a strict diet and care regimen to keep her pre-diabetes in check.

About: I have lots of experience with dogs and cats. Throughout my childhood animals were my escape from reality. My dad bred dogs and I always loved them so much it was hard to say goodbye. In high school I took in a stray cat and it kept getting pregnant so I raised like 5 litters of kittens as well. To be honest I like animals more than people your babies are in good hands. I like to walk and get my steps in everyday so it won’t be much different walking with the doggos. I have dog and catsit for close friends and family but never strangers. Excited to do it! I work from home and my job is very flexible. I am my own boss so I can pretty much take breaks whenever I need to take your fur baby on walks or feed them as well as give them lots of attention when needed. My availability is very open and I love all animals. Since I work from home I’ll always be here to make sure your animal is well cared for and happy. I also go on multiple walks daily anyways to try and stay active so its perfect!!

About: I’ve been watching and caring for pets since I was little and have always had a love for animals. I’ve been taking care of neighbors and friends pets for years without any issues. I also have two fur babies of my own who receive plenty of walks, attention, and affection, and I would love the opportunity to care for your pets as well. I’m currently enrolled at the University of Arizona studying medicine, and I’ve taken several animal related classes simply because of my passion for animals. I’m a very patient, reliable, and attentive person who will treat your pet with the same care and love as my own. I’m currently a student at the University of Arizona studying medicine and im very free in the afternoons and nights to care for pets. And my schedule is free for the weekends to care for animals. I am very attentive and patient when it comes to caring for animals. I try to be observant to my dogs behaviors to see if soemthing is off and I try to keep a decently consistent schedule with feeding and potty breaks. I also make sure they have enough water especially in Arizona heat.

My experience includes administering medication, monitoring behavior and health, and providing personal care for pets of all ages. With a Fear-Free Shelter Certification, I understand how to reduce stress and create a positive experience for your pets. I am especially attentive to senior pets and will respond quickly to their needs. I pride myself on reliable communication, maintaining clean living spaces, and treating every pet as if they were my own.

I am flexible with my schedule so contact with any times that works for you. During the weekday after 11 am, I have open availability for any dog-walking or sitting needs. When caring for pets, I prioritize maintaining their normal routine to keep them comfortable and as stress-free as possible. I follow all feeding, medication, walking, and enrichment instructions carefully. I always make sure pets are in a clean environment with fresh water. I have gated backyard open anytime for supervised playtime. I always monitor behavior, any signs of illness or injury and always communicate updates promptly to owners. I take security very seriously and make sure doors, gates, and windows are closed and locked. My goal is to provided dependable and compassion for all pets under my care so they feel safe and owners have peace of mind while they are away.

About: I have been a lifelong pet owner, caring for dogs of all different sizes and personalities. I have also looked after friends and family’s pets, always treating them as my own!! I take pride in entertaining and keeping pets happy while their owner is away. As a communication student at the University of Arizona, I have the afternoons, nights, and weekend mornings available. My lifestyle is centered around fitness, wellness, and balance, which allows me to have the energy and flexibility to provide constant love and care for pets.

“Mikayla is very reliable and professional. Luke has enjoyed his long walks. It usually takes a few walks for him to relax with a new person walking him but he seems to have taken a quick liking to Mikayla!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs most of my whole life from new borns to fosters. I’ve owned a dog and a cat at the same time before and played with them a lot. I love taking dogs on long walks and just watching tv giving a cat or kitten some cuddles I’m very flexible with my schedule when it comes to taking care of pets since I do my main job as a writer from homez I’m able to care for any persons pet in their own home as I can’t not host a pet at my home at the moment

About: With lifelong experience caring for animals, friends and family often trust me with their pets’ needs. I’ve worked in a vet clinic, on ranches, and in homes with pets, and I’m comfortable providing medical care and some first aid. I’m responsible, detail-oriented, and committed to treating your pets like my own and doing things right for your pet and home. My current schedule is flexible and allows me to prioritize pet care throughout the day and week. This makes it easy for me to maintain routines, provide attentive care, and accommodate longer stays or mid-day visits when needed. I don’t currently board pets in my own home, but I focus on making pets feel safe and comfortable in their familiar environment. I follow your routine closely and ensure pets always have clean water, enrichment, and a calm, attentive presence. I prefer a free meet-and-greet before booking, especially for households with dogs. For cats, I respect their individual rhythms — whether that means affection, play, or quiet companionship — and I keep litter areas clean and well maintained.

“Maggie was absolutely amazing! If I could give her 6 stars I would. From the moment we met her we could tell how caring she was and how much she loves animals. She was so good with our little chihuahua and was amazing about sending updates with photos and videos. We are so thankful we found Maggie and hope to work with her again in the future. If you are looking for someone to take good care of your fur baby, look no further! Maggie is hands down the best!❤️”

About: I have grown up with dogs and cats for as long as I can remember! From shelter Labrador mixes to pure-bred golden retrievers, I have been surrounded by pets since I was born and have such a love for all things animals! In my household, we have also raised and taken care of cats, lizards, bunnies, guinea pigs, and fish! Now that I am living on my own in college, I miss being around pets and would love to help take care of yours in any way that you need! Over the summer, I am working a job at Black Rock Coffee Bar. My availability is flexible, and I am willing to work with you to provide for you and your pet in any way you need! I have an unfenced yard, no pets at home, and a reliable car for transportation. Whether you need me to look after your pet in my home or check up on your pet in your own home, I am your girl!

About: I have fostered 8 dogs (so far!) and helped them find homes. Caring for dogs of different ages, temperaments and needs has taught me so much. I have experience with both dogs and cats (and birds and fish!). I work as a substitute teacher, giving me flexibility to take pet-sitting jobs on short notice. I am also available for overnight pet-sitting and longer house-sitting bookings. As a dog foster, I have learned to be exceptionally careful with new dogs. Respecting their space, while being friendly and encouraging. Taking extra precautions when leaving the house or letting them out into the yard. I understand that change and new people can be stressful to a dog and am careful to avoid additional stressors. I feel immense responsibility for the pets in my care, as well as other pets and people we encounter on walks. I also want the dogs to have fun and relax when we are at home. I really enjoy getting to know new dogs and hope they see me as a new friend ☺️
