Dog Walking Nob Hill

About: I have been caring for pets my entire life and have always had a strong love for animals. I grew up with cats and have had my own cat for the past 10 years, giving me extensive experience with understanding feline personalities, routines, and individual needs. I also have experience caring for friends’ pets, including providing feeding, playtime, companionship, and maintaining their daily care routines. In addition to cat care, I offer dog care and walking services. I understand the importance of providing pets with patience, attention, exercise, and a safe environment while their owners are away. I also have experience medicating cats and am comfortable following detailed care instructions to ensure pets receive the support they need. I treat every pet as if they were my own and strive to provide reliable, loving, and personalized care for each animal I look after. I only work three days a week so I have plenty of flexibility to care for your pets! I am available morning, afternoon, and evenings on my days off. I provide pet care that is tailored to each pet’s individual needs, personality, and routine. In a client’s home, I focus on keeping pets comfortable by following their normal schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, litter box care, and any other instructions provided. I make sure they receive plenty of attention, companionship, and affection while their owners are away. For cats, I understand the importance of a calm and familiar environment. I’m happy to provide feeding, fresh water, litter box maintenance, playtime, and medication when needed. For dogs, I provide safe and enjoyable walks, exercise, and companionship while making sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I treat every pet like my own and prioritize their safety, happiness, and well-being. I’m also happy to provide updates and photos so owners can feel confident that their pets are in good hands.

About: I offer overnight sits, check-ins, and walks, and I take things at your pet's pace. I love taking dogs (and cats!) out slowly, appreciating the details of people's gardens while they have a good sniff, then opening up into a run to burn off excess energy. I'm always up for fetch, tug of war, and teaching new tricks and behaviors. Over the past few years I've been dog sitting and walking for friends and members of my community around town, and I help with the daily running of my housemates' dog boarding business at home. I've looked after animals with medical needs, from help getting to the bathroom to medication and insulin shots, and I'm reliable at following a feeding and dosing schedule. I'm comfortable with anxious or reactive dogs too, and I know how to avoid their triggers, hold to a routine, and build trust. I work part-time as a gardener and take online classes in project management, so my days stay flexible and I've got plenty of time to spend with your pet. My work as a gardener and dog walker keeps me on a flexible schedule. I can handle morning and evening feedings, midday check-ins, walks, and play. I adjust to each pet's routine. I keep pets on their normal routine, follow feeding and medication instructions closely, secure doors and gates, refresh water, and move slowly with shy or anxious animals.

“Thank you Olesia for watching our boys! You were absolutely amazing!!! You kept is updated with photos and messages and followed all our instructions perfectly. I know our high energy puppy is a lot of work! Thank you again.”

About: I grew up with dogs and have been enjoying caring for friends’ and family’s dogs while they travel for over 15 years. I was responsible for full time dog care up to 2 weeks including feeding, daily companionship when remote working and walking or hiking with dogs as well as overnight stays. Recently retired and expanding my dog walking/care to more pets. I recently retired and very flexible weekday hours, but away many weekends. If in town, I can likely open times for weekend days as well. My hours during the day are also quite flexible currently. I have cared for friends’ pets at their homes with overnight stays of a few days to a few weeks. Currently seeking dog walking opportunities but open potentially to future home stay care for pets.

“Shannon was great with Gus! He was always on time, accommodated for the rain and took him on a long 60 minute walk. Gus was excited to see him everyday. Shannon was very responsive and easy to work with!”

“Divya was amazing with my pup! They did quite the walk, hit the park and burnt out a bunch of energy. Divya also took great photos and left a fantastic summary of their excursion. I appreciated her prompt response times and she asked good questions before starting out with my baby girl. Can't reccomend her more! Will definitely reach out again in the future. Thanks for giving my pup such a great start to her morning!”

About: I am a responsible, experienced dog/cat owner-lover and will treat yours like my own. I was raised in a family that had dogs including 3 dachshunds, a mutt, and a chow over the years. As an adult I have been the loving pet parent to three adult cats consecutively. Very comfortable around cats and dogs. Available for dog-walking, cat/dog drop-in's, and daytime extended stay drop-in's / house-sitting (no overnights). I have worked remotely for over ten years so have a very flexible schedule. Walking your dog or visiting your cat would be a pleasure and a chance for some fresh air and exercise. I do this for supplemental income during my free time and the opportunity to visit different neighborhoods. I am available daytime hours, not overnight (mid-morning til before sunset). I will give your cat or dog as much or little attention in your home as you (or they!) specify. Reliable, trustworthy. Not able to care for your pets at my home.

“Responsible, pleasant, and our boy loves her!”

About: I've always been a dog lover and want one myself (sadly, the timing isn't right just yet). In the meantime, I'm putting all that doggy affection to good use as a top-notch dog walker. I am a passionate daily walker/ runner so I will make sure your dog gets their daily dose of fun and exercise. I currently work a remote full-time job with a very flexible schedule. I will work closely with you to figure out a schedule that works for us both. I prioritize safety and adherence to any specified routines. I follow specific instructions for feeding, medication, and exercise. Your dog will receive extra attention, and care to ensure their well-being and happiness.

“Kadi is so sweet and went out of her way to meet Zoey before walking her for the first time. She is communicative and very knowledgeable of all types of dogs. I felt very safe leaving Zoey in her care!”

About: Hi! I am a pet mom to a Maltese dog and a tortie cat, a mom to three grown daughters, and a grandma to five little ones. I love all kinds of furbabies, and I treat them as I do my own. I enjoy taking dogs out around the neighbor; I like to play with a good dog or cat toy. I am also great with cuddling. I can dispense pills or even do injections! I would care for your animal(s) with responsibility and love. Unlike dog walkers that I've seen, I don't text or look at my phone when walking your pet. Your pet's happiness and safety are my chief concerns. Please consider me for loving care delivered to your pet(s). All the best. I am mostly retired, and I enjoy getting out in the neighborhood, particularly when accompanied by a furry friend or two. Good sights and good sniffs are what it’s all about! I treat all pets as I do my own, with plenty of cuddles, playtime, belly rubs, and love. I make sure that pets are fed and watered. I clean up any “accidents.”

About: I have taken care of dogs and cats since I was 10. Friends and family have relied on me to check in with, feed , play and snuggle with their pets. I’m currently working part-time so, time is flexible. I will have a plenty of time to hang out with your pets. I’m available for week day and on weekends also. I will set my available time on my schedule. I always try to follow the consistent routine. My own cats have set time for meal and play. I bring the same structure and attentiveness to every pets I care for.
