Dog Walking Mission Bay

About: I have owned 6 cats in the course of my life (and two dogs as a kid). I love all animals! I have been dog walking since I was in elementary school for neighbors’ dogs. I have dog sat, cat sat—even rat sat! I have a lot of experience administering medications for cats. One of my cats was diagnosed with asthma at 6 and lived to be 19 with a daily inhaler! I have two small children and school and work part time so I will be cat sit between the hours of 9 and 3:30 when my kids are at school. I will feed, play with and medicate your cat (if needed)—I will change their litterbox daily. I have little kids so I can’t stay overnight.

“I hired Lauren to walk my dog after a last minute cancellation and she was so helpful! She replied very quickly and communicated with me throughout the week! She even came to meet Ari before hand and was very sweet! Will 100% be using Lauren in the future. Thank you Lauren!!”

About: Hi, I’m Maddy! I’ve had dogs all my life and my mutt, Toby, is the prince of the house! We’d love to cuddle with your fur baby and take them for long walks on (or near) the beach while you are on your vacation! I’ve volunteered and worked a vet clinics over the years, but am currently going back to school to get my RN degree. I’d love to connect with some locals who love their pets and need a little additional support or care while my schedule is more flexible! Most days I am up from 6:30/7am-10pm. Monday-Wednesday I am at home all day, but I do work part time at a local coffee shop Thursday through Sunday (OB Beans). My shifts are generally 4-5 hours, so getting getting your pup active before and after my shifts are generally not a problem! I have a fenced in yard and a medium sized neutered boxer mix who will share the space. If needed, he is happy to hang out in solitude in the bedroom if your pup is timid with friends! I live a block from the beach and close to sunset cliffs, so a walk or likely even two are not uncommon- we can cater to your pace!

“Isa is fantastic! She is promt and communicative. I received multiple pictures of my dog, including some on his walks. He got into something and made a huge mess. Isa was kind enough to clean it up and make sure it was out of reach. Plus, my dog loves her! Excited to book her again.”

“Clare has exceptional communication skills and is incredibly kind and attentive to my dog. I’m eagerly looking forward to having her care for my dog again soon. I highly recommend her to others as well.”

About: I love animals and am doing this more as a hobby than to make money. I spent 3 summers working at a doggy daycare/boarding. I am the go to dog/cat sitter in my apartment complex, office, and with my friend group. I love to meet new furry friends! I have a very flexible weekly schedule with work. I usually make my own schedule. I work fully remote two days a week and am off by 3 on Fridays. No work and completely flexible Saturday and Sundays! I care for pets by following their established routines and providing attentive, compassionate care tailored to each animal’s needs. I believe it’s important to treat every pet as my own!!

“I’ve used Julia several times. I highly recommend her.”

About: Grew up with dogs all of my life and have watched multiple dogs in the past. I am open to walks, drop-ins, house sitting, or anything else you may need to keep your pet happy. I work from home with a very flexible schedule, and would be able to drop by to house sit or walk a dog multiple times a day if needed. I live in a very spacious house right near the bay and can easily walk dogs around my neighborhood. I often have dogs stay at my home because it is so easy to take them out or have them wander around the house.

About: Hi! I’m Morgan, a lifelong animal lover at your service for drop-in visits, walks, and pet sitting. I grew up with cats and dogs and I’m comfortable with all breeds and sizes. I’m attentive, communicative, and only want the best for your pet. I have experience administering medication, preparing specialty food, walking reactive dogs, and caring for timid kitties. I live in PB with my seven year old cat, Beau! I WFH and have a flexible schedule. I prefer to schedule pet care in advance so I can make caring for your pet a seamless part of my schedule. I don’t offer pet care in my home due to my timid cat, but I’m more than happy to pet sit in yours! I’m clean and respectful of your space.

“Ilayda was wonderful! she was available last minute and took great care of russ. sent lots of pics and communicated well. will definitely book her again :)”

About: I've taken care of animals my whole life. My family has always had at least one dog and I have frequently pet-sat for friends and family. I love all dogs and would love to provided a temporary home for yours! As someone who works remotely, pet care seamlessly fits into my daily and weekly routine. Being at home allows me the flexibility to provide consistent care, whether it’s taking pets on walks during breaks, offering timely meals, or simply giving them the attention and affection they need throughout the day. I can easily adjust my schedule to ensure their needs are met, creating a safe and comforting environment while their owners are away. I provide attentive, loving care tailored to each pet’s needs, whether in my home or the client’s home. For pets in my home, I create a safe, welcoming environment with plenty of space to relax, play, and feel at ease. I ensure they stick to their regular routines, including feeding, walks, and playtime, while offering lots of snuggles and attention. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize maintaining their familiar environment and routines to minimize stress. I’m attentive to their specific needs, whether it’s administering medication, providing exercise, or keeping them company. In both cases, their comfort and happiness are always my top priority!

About: I've loved dogs for as long as I can remember and have years of experience caring for pets for friends, family and neighbors. People trust me with their pets and their children because I am responsible, gentle and attentive. I genuinely love animals and treat every pet like they are my own. Im currently a stay-at-home mom, which allows me to have a consistent and flexible schedule. I'm available for dog walks between 9am and 3pm on weekdays, and I also offer overnight boarding. Being home during the day means your dog will get plenty of attention, care, and companionship. My home is a safe, calm, and welcoming environment for pets. I have a large, fully fenced yard where dogs can play, explore, and get plenty of fresh air. I also have one very friendly male dog who loves the company of other dogs and helps them feel comfortable. I understand that every dog has different needs, so I do have a crate available and can provide a private, quiet space if your pet prefers their own area. My goal is to make every dog feel secure, loved, and at home while they’re in my care.

About: From one lab, to two goldens, and most recently two small dogs, I’ve grown up with many dogs. I have also pet-sat for family and friends. I’m an acclaimed dog person and I’m eager to help care for your furry friend. I work from home, so I am available to pop in to walk your dog during the day and on weekends if you need someone to care for your dog. I share my apartment with a roommate, so unfortunately I cannot care for your dog at my home but I’m more than happy to stop by or stay at your home. Whatever the preference, I will make sure your dog is happy, healthy, and safe!

“Jelena was responsive, friendly, punctual, and a good communicator during this process. It was a somewhat last-minute holiday weekend request, she handled everything great. Would definitely re-book with her.”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Dricks was amazing! Super timely, communicative, and so good with our two big dogs who can be strong pullers on the leash. He went above and beyond to make sure they got a great walk and came home happy and tired. We’d absolutely rebook with him again if given the chance! Highly recommend!”

Brianna M.

“Great experience. She is clearly passionate about animals and my dog loved her. Meet and greet was great and showed up for the planned walk at exact tome we discussed. Highly recommend and will use again.”

Michelle B.

“Juliette is great! She was able to accommodate a last minute request, is communicative, and managed a successful walk with our sometimes stubborn fur babies. We’ll book her again and recommend her services.”

About: Aside from growing up (literally) with 2 cats who lived to the age of 20, I was the neighborhood pet sitter growing up! Whether it was dog, cats, amphibians, bunnies, hedgehogs and occasionally horses, I was booked and busy loving on all the fur babies. I also have previously worked in a vet clinic for 2 years during college and comfortable administering any medications as needed. I work from home as a social media manager. I create my own hours with the occasional meeting so that means your fur baby will have my full attention. I routinely walk to the beach in the morning and grab coffee which they can join me on (1-3 miles round trip depending on their love of walking) plus regularly get outside to stretch my legs and get some vitamin D! All of which they would join me on I live just a couple blocks to the bay where we can play and throw the ball or there’s a few fenced dog parks near me as well if they’re still working on recall! If your fur baby isn’t comfortable around other animals I will respect that and we will find other activities to do to keep them stimulated!

About: I’ve always loved animals and grew up walking dogs and spending lots of time with pets. I have experience caring for a dog who requires daily medication, as well as my own senior cat who needs a little extra care and attention. I’m comfortable with different personalities and needs and will make sure your pet feels safe, cared for, and comfortable while you’re away. I have a flexible schedule and can easily make pet care part of my daily routine. I enjoy getting outside for walks and spending time with animals, so I’m happy to fit in walks, drop-ins, or house sitting throughout the week depending on what each pet needs. I have a cat of my own who I care for every day, so I’m used to keeping up with a pet’s daily routine and needs. I make sure he has everything he needs, from food and fresh water to attention and extra care as a senior. In a client’s home, I’d follow their pet’s normal routine and instructions closely while making sure they’re comfortable and cared for.
