Dog Walking North Torrance

About: Ever since I was a child, I’ve loved animals deeply. I remember sneaking my little chihuahua Feisty into my room every night. That deep love for animals has never changed. I’m incredibly empathetic, passionate, and I truly believe animals deserve to be loved, understood, and cared for. I know it’s stressful to find someone you can trust with your pet, and I want to be that person for you. My experience spans more than ten years, caring for a vast variety of animals from dogs, cats, rabbits, turtles, and so much more.. As a Registered Behavior Technician, I understand positive reinforcement and how to address undesired behaviors while maintaining your dog’s dignity. My own dog Georgina knows numerous commands and responds beautifully because of these techniques. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and genuinely invested in making sure your fur baby feels loved and happy while you’re away. I’m available for house sitting, potty break visits, and dog walks. I hope the photos I added on my profile brought you some giggles. I'll be sure to capture those candid moments of your fur babies along with detailed updates. I'm currently working part time, so I have plenty of availability for pet care. I offer housesitting, dog walking and daily visits. Let me know what times works best for you and I'll confirm when I can accommodate. I offer housesitting, daily visits for potty breaks, and dog walking. I adhere closely to all your detailed instructions and care preferences to ensure your pets safety and comfort.

“Aileen was so patient with our timid dog. She followed our instructions perfectly while we were away and checked in on our home. We will be using her again!”

About: I’ve been working with animals for over 25 years, including 10 years as a veterinary technician and as a behavioral dog trainer. As a former vet tech, I’m comfortable administering medications (oral, topical, injectable), monitoring special-needs pets, and caring for both senior dogs and tiny puppies who need a little extra attention. My background in animal behavior allows me to read a dog’s body language, support anxious or high-energy pups, and create a calm, positive experience on every walk. Whether your dog needs structure, gentle reinforcement, behavior training, or just a patient friend, I’m confident, capable, and committed to their safety and comfort. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I’m currently not working a traditional job, which gives me plenty of time to focus on walking, caring for, and spending quality time with your fur baby. My schedule is very flexible — mornings, afternoons, evenings, and last-minute bookings all work for me. I love being outdoors, staying active, and making every walk a positive, enriching experience for the dogs I care for. When caring for pets in my clients’ homes, I prioritize comfort, consistency, and following your routine exactly as you outline it. I’m a detail-oriented and caring individual, so whether your pet needs medication, a specific feeding schedule, gentle reassurance, or extra playtime, I make sure everything is done just the way you prefer. My goal is to keep your pet feeling safe, relaxed, and loved while you’re away.

What makes me different is the genuine love and dedication I bring to every pet—I understand they are family. At home, I’ve cared for multiple dogs over the years and currently live with a sweet 3-year-old cat, so I’m very comfortable with different personalities and needs.

I currently work a flexible hybrid schedule, which would allow me to work from home during the week on a need basis, just let me know ahead of time. We currently have an 8 month old pup at home. She’s well socialized, up to date on her shots, and lovesss to have guests over. I will treat your fur baby with the same care and attention I treat our Momo.

About: I have hands-on experience working in an animal shelter, where I cared for pets with different personalities, needs, and routines. I’m comfortable providing medication and giving extra attention to pets that require special care, including senior pets or those needing additional support.

I treat every animal as if they were my own and always aim to provide dependable, attentive care. I am home for the summer, so I have full availability from June all the way to mid-August! Have a trip, weekend getaway, or last-minute date night? I will be happy to watch your furry friend :) I’m unable to host pets in my own home since I don’t have a yard, but I’m committed to providing attentive, reliable, and high-quality care for your pets in the comfort of their own home.

About: I don’t have a lot of experience taking care of other peoples pets but I am a fast learner. I grew up on a farm and most of my experiences are of taking care of the animals on the farm. In recent years, I have walked my son’s dog, Mochi, twice a day. I truly enjoyed it because dogs have a special way of demonstrating universal love. The dog in my profile picture was Charle. He got us thru COVID and he transitioned at the age of 15. He was the only pet that I loved who had a place in my home. I am a school teacher off for the summer. My weekends are busy with volunteer services for my church. I am available Monday - Friday for the months of June, July and August. Presently, I am offering dog walking services only. When I meet your pet at your home, I will attempt to connect with your pet to make sure we trust each other before going out for the walk.

About: Hi there! Animals have always been a huge part of my life. From a young age, I felt a special connection with them, and that passion eventually grew into a career dedicated to their health, safety, and well-being. I currently work remotely, full-time, for a nonprofit animal protection organization and have more than eight years of professional veterinary experience. I’ve worked in both a family-owned general practice and a specialty emergency animal hospital. As a companion animal owner myself, I understand how difficult it can be to leave your furry family member in someone else’s care. My goal is to make that experience as stress-free as possible for both you and your companion. Whether we’re going for a walk, enjoying playtime, or simply sticking to their normal routine, I’ll make sure your companion receives the attention, safety, structure, and affection they deserve. ❤️ Because I work remotely, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to incorporate pet care into my daily routine. Outside of occasional errands, travel, or personal commitments, I am generally available for afternoon and evening drop-in visits throughout the week. I am also available for in-home pet sitting, which allows your companion animal(s) to remain in the environment where they feel most comfortable and secure. PLEASE NOTE, for in-home pet sitting that falls on weekdays (Mon–Fri): As mentioned above, I work remotely and will need WiFi access throughout the day while caring for your companion animal(s). To help protect your network security, I recommend providing me with a temporary or guest password. Whether you’re out of town overnight or away for a few weeks, I am available to provide house and pet sitting in the comfort of your home. I believe it’s often best for companion animals to remain in their familiar environment, where they can maintain their normal routines and feel safe, secure, and comfortable. While you’re away, I will provide attentive, compassionate care tailored to your pet’s individual needs. This includes feeding, fresh water, exercise, playtime, enrichment, medication administration if needed, and plenty of affection. I understand that trusting someone with both your companion animal(s) and your home is a big decision. You can expect clear communication, reliability, and regular updates, including photos and messages, so you can have peace of mind knowing your companion is safe and well cared for while you’re away.

About: I am a definite cat and dog lover. I've grown up to take care of dogs of different breeds and sizes. I love them all and treat each of them as if they are my own. I am currently available during weekdays and weekends. I work from home full time and flexible to different times of the day. Feel free to message me with any questions! The way I care for pets in my home is pay attention to their wants and needs. I love being active, energetic and playful with pets to make them feel safe, comfortable and happy!

About: I have grown up with pets and have enjoyed learning and experiencing different personalities. With my hands-on experience your furry friend is in capable and caring hands. I specialize in small to medium-sized dogs, but my recent experience with larger breeds has expanded my horizons, though I'm quite selective and open to it only if they're exceptionally well-behaved. My approach to pet sitting is all about creating a comfortable space for your pet to ensure they feel safe and cared for even when you're not at home with them. I understand that every pet is unique and requires individualized attention, which is why I tailor my care to suit their needs and why I only accept 1 client household at a time. I try to accommodate your pet's schedule so that they don't have to experience too much change at once. This includes sticking to exercise regimens, feeding schedules, potty breaks and bedtimes. I work remotely full-time which means I have flexibility in my schedule. Additionally, I try to maintain an active lifestyle which includes running and hiking. When onboarding a new client, I make sure that I understand the pet's schedule and preferences. Additionally, I make sure to understand any boundaries the pet should adhere in the client's home including yard space or even areas in the house. I do a walkthrough with the client so I know what areas may pose a safety concern such as gates and fences. I try to understand the pet's behavior in different scenarios such as when the door bell rings or if a neighborhood dog approaches during walks. I also make sure I have emergency numbers and the location of the closest animal hospital. For client's ease of mind , I provide pictures and updates as needed on the pet.
