Dog Walking Montecito Heights

“Kah and Margaret are wonderful. Each time they do a rover card so we can see their entire walk and they take such cute pup pictures! I am glad to have found a wonderful dog walker.”

About: Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I spend most of my time at home and have a flexible schedule. This allows me to provide plenty of attention, playtime, feeding, and companionship throughout the day. I understand that every cat has different needs and routines, and I do my best to make them feel comfortable, safe, and relaxed while they're in my care. I provide a clean, safe, and calm environment where cats can feel comfortable and secure. My home is pet-friendly, and I take care to keep doors and windows secure and remove potential hazards. I have experience caring for my own cat and understand the importance of maintaining routines, monitoring behavior, and giving pets the patience and attention they need. I also provide updates and photos so owners can feel confident that their pets are well cared for.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all sizes and ages before, from terriers to Scotch collies. These dogs have ranged in age as well, with some being as young as 1-3 and the oldest being 15. I make sure to communicate frequently to ensure pets receive thoughtful and fun care that is also respectful of their boundaries. I’m a teacher and currently on summer break, so my time for pet care is pretty open and prioritized right now! Rover is my primary focus at the moment, so let’s chat about some care for your pet! Whenever in a new environment, I make sure to inspect all possible exits or potential areas for danger or risk for pets. Additionally, respecting your home and your boundaries is a top priority of mine! I don’t use things unless I’ve asked about them and will communicate if a situation ever arises. I don’t have boarding as an option at the moment, but if that ever changes, pet safety and comfort is always a priority!

“Emily is a true animal person. My dogs loved her from the moment she walked in - the ultimate test in how comfortable they feel with someone. I knew right away she was a good fit. Easy-going, articulate, kind, sweet.”

About: I’m a patient person that’s great at matching energy’s and very respectful of others spaces. I have had personal experience with giving dogs medication. I think annals are people too and that they feel with what we feel. I’m currently in college part time, and have time to help others with there dogs. I am available weekend and some weekdays for pet sitting and walking. I have recently lost my dog, but I have had dogs all my life and taken care of the when they have been well and unwell.

About: I'm fortunate to have cared for animals since childhood and find true joy in treating others pets as my own. Family, friends and neighbors have relied on my consistency, responsibility and compassion when they need someone to look after their babies. I am very comfortable with multiple animals, senior care and challenging personalities. I am able to remain calm in chaos and understand the importance of communication. My three-year old German Shepherd mix, Pharaoh, keeps me on my toes and engaged with the latest in pet parent world! Currently in between jobs which allows me to be flexible depending on the needs of the client and their pets. While I do have my own boy dog, Pharaoh, our routine can be adjusted without issue. I will follow the exact instructions needed and am very communicative in terms of sending photos, videos and ensuring there are no disruptions to a pets routine. I have a deep understanding of how important consistency is to building trust with an animal and will do everything required to make sure both the client and their baby feel safe and at peace.

About: I have experience with all kinds of pets. I grew up with a big dog, so I have experience walking, feeding, and playing with sizable dogs. My childhood dog was well trained, so I’m used to using commands with dogs. I’ve previously pet-sit for small dogs as well over a range of ages. Although I haven’t had a dog of my own for several years, many people in my life have dogs so they’re still a part of my life. I currently have a cat, so I am also very familiar with cat care. I just love all kinds of pets! I currently work from home as a freelance artist, so my schedule is very open and I have plenty of time to care for and play with pets! I have experience with animals of all sizes so I feel confident in my ability to wrangle any pups. I also have experience crating small dogs.

About: We have 2 friendly, large, high energy pups and recently decided to offer boarding after we went away for a weekend and experienced how hard it was to find great care for our girls. We hike/ take long walks daily & are happy to bring your pup along on our adventures! We are a dog-loving couple with 2 friendly dogs of our own. We are available for boarding and dog daycare throughout the week. Boarding includes a 3+ mile walk! I have a partially fenced yard & a fully enclosed patio where they can nap in the sun, plus two friendly dogs to keep your pup company and show them the ropes. We live close to great hiking areas & hike most mornings. Your dog is invited!

“Steven was above and beyond with my big dog Wallace. He took to time to check in with me in advance to learn a little of his background, and left my dog cared for, energized, and happy. Will definitely rebook!”

“My fear reactive senior chi-terrier mix met Lori (out of the house) and was like, oh hi, like they'd known each other for years. And when we returned to the house my year old maltipoo who usually barks at everyone was also like, oh hi. Will this always be the case everytime with every dog or even everytime with my dogs - I cannot guarantee that - but I attributed this first calm meet and great behavior to Lori's kind, calm, dog-lover vibe. :)”

“Toya is responsive and flexible. I booked her to walk my 2 dogs and entered the wrong date. She was accommodating and worked with me to get everything sorted. I really appreciated her offer to do a meet and greet with me before walking them. She gets a ????? review!”

About: I’ve lived with, cared for, and adored many pets for 20+ years 😊 I’m comfortable adapting to different personalities, routines, and energy levels. I understand how important consistency is for pets, so I follow feeding schedules, exercise preferences, and household instructions carefully. I also believe communication matters, so I send regular updates and photos. I’m attentive to routines, comfortable administering basic care instructions, and focused on making pets feel secure and comfortable, and provide lots of attention and love! I’m a writer with flexible work-from-home schedule so I can accommodate more flexible visits and provide more personalized attention and quality care throughout the day, so you can enjoy your time away with peace of mind. I focus on quality visits—not just feeding and leaving. I make time for play, companionship, refresh water, and send updates after each visit. I aim to maintain your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible and treat your home with care and respect.

“Angelique communicates, so far she has been on time, and our dog Leaha comes back tired this is the second she's taken Leaha for a walk, so far Angelique is working out well.”

About: I have experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, from young puppies and kittens to senior pets. I'm comfortable with daily pet care responsibilities, including feeding, cleaning up after pets, maintaining a safe and sanitary environment, administering oral medications and flea treatments, and providing plenty of attention and companionship. What sets me apart is my hands-on experience with a wide variety of pets and situations. I've even assisted pregnant dogs and cats during labor and birth, which has taught me to stay calm, attentive, and responsive when animals need extra care. I'm also always eager to learn and expand my experience with other types of animals. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while giving pet owners peace of mind. I currently work part-time, which gives me plenty of time to dedicate to pet care and ensure pets receive the attention they deserve. I have a flexible schedule and can often accommodate a variety of care needs, including walks, and drop-in visits. I'm also available on weekends, making it easier to provide care when many pet owners need it most. I do my best to work with each pet owner's schedule and provide reliable, consistent care. At this time, I am unable to host pets in my apartment, but I have experience caring for friends' and family members' pets in their own homes. When caring for pets, I make it a priority to maintain a clean, safe, and comfortable environment where they can relax, play, and feel secure. I carefully follow each pet owner's instructions regarding feeding, medication, exercise, and daily routines to help pets feel as comfortable as possible while their owners are away. I treat every home with respect and every pet as if they were my own, ensuring they receive attentive care, companionship, and a safe environment at all times.

About: Hello! My name is Paige. I’m a dedicated pet lover with hands-on experience caring for dogs of all personalities and needs. I’ve fostered shelter dogs and helped them find their forever homes, which taught me patience, adaptability, and how to build trust with dogs from all kinds of backgrounds. I’m very familiar with different types of dog gear; collars, harnesses, and leashes and I understand how important proper fit and comfort are for safe, enjoyable walks. I’ve also trained my own dog, Nala (my best friend!), and have experience working through reactivity, so I’m especially mindful of each dog’s unique triggers and comfort level. One thing I truly believe is that no two dogs are the same. I take the time to meet every dog where they’re at, whether that means slow introductions, extra playtime, or just a calm, reassuring presence. Along with fostering, I’ve helped friends and family with dog sitting and walking, so I’m very comfortable handling daily routines, feeding, exercise, and lots of love and attention. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and comfort are always my top priorities and I’ll treat them like one of my own every step of the way. Pet care is a natural part of my everyday life. When I’m not pet sitting or out on walks, I work at a pet store, so I’m constantly surrounded by animals and staying up to date on pet care, products, and best practices. Because of my flexible schedule, I’m able to offer daily walks, drop-in visits, and check-ins that can be tailored to your pet’s specific routine and needs. Whether your pet thrives on consistency, extra exercise, or just some midday company, I can adjust my schedule to make sure they’re getting the care and attention they deserve. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are always my top priorities. I take the time to carefully follow each owner’s instructions, because I understand that every pet has their own habits, preferences, and needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I aim to keep things as consistent and stress-free as possible by sticking to their usual schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, and any medications. I’m very attentive to behavior and body language, allowing me to adjust my approach depending on whether your pet is energetic, shy, or needs a little extra patience. I respect your home just as much as your pet, keeping things clean, secure, and exactly how you left them. My goal is to provide reliable, adaptable care so you can feel confident your pet is safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away.
