Dog Walking North Highlands

About: 🐾 My Pet Care Experience I’ve had a dog by my side for my entire life until recently, so caring for dogs has always been a natural and important part of my life. Over the years, I’ve experienced the day-to-day responsibilities that come with being a dog owner—from feeding and walks to playtime, exercise, grooming, medications, and simply recognizing when a dog needs some extra attention or reassurance. Having dogs for so many years has taught me that every dog has their own personality, habits, and needs. Some are energetic and ready to play, while others are happiest getting some attention and curling up nearby. I’m comfortable adapting to each dog and following the routine their family has established. Most importantly, I understand that leaving your dog with someone else requires trust. I will treat your dog with the same patience, kindness, and care that I’ve given my own dogs throughout my life. My Availability Retirement gives me a very flexible schedule, which means I can devote plenty of time to your dog rather than trying to fit pet care around a full-time job. I’m generally available throughout the week and can often accommodate different schedules and routines. I’m happy to discuss your specific needs and find a schedule that works well for both you and your pup. I also understand that plans can change, so communication is important. If you have a specific schedule or timing requirement, just let me know when you reach out and I’ll do my best to accommodate it. My goal is simple: **you enjoy your time away knowing your dog is safe, happy, and getting plenty of love and attention.** ❤️🐶 🛡️ Safety, Trust & Environment Your dog’s safety and well-being will always be my top priority. I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big deal, and I take that responsibility seriously. I carefully follow your instructions regarding feeding, medications, routines, leash requirements, crate time, and anything else that helps your dog feel comfortable and secure. I also pay close attention to doors, gates, crates, and other potential escape risks. I want your dog to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. Whether we’re out for a walk, playing in the backyard, or relaxing at home, I provide attentive and supervised care. If I care for your dog in your home, I’ll also treat your home with the same respect I would expect someone to show mine. I’ll keep things clean and secure and leave your home just as I found it. Most importantly, I believe trust is earned. I’ll communicate with you, keep you updated, and make sure you feel confident knowing your dog is in good hands. 🐾❤️

About: I’ve dedicated my life to caring for animals with the same love and attention we give to family. With years of hands-on experience, I’ve cared for pets of all ages and needs—from puppies and kittens to senior pets requiring special attention. I have also rescued and rehabilitated dogs and cats, ensuring they received the care, grooming, and affection needed to thrive before finding their forever homes. I’m currently available throughout the week and offer flexible scheduling to meet your pet’s needs. Beginning August 22, I’ll be attending college, so there will be certain days and times when I have classes. Outside of my class schedule, I’m committed to providing dependable care and will communicate my availability clearly to ensure we find a schedule that works well for you and your pet. Whether you need drop-in visits, walks, overnight care, or weekend services, I’ll do my best to accommodate your needs. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I provide a clean, loving, and family-oriented environment where pets receive plenty of attention and care. My home includes my 3-year-old daughter, 7-month-old son, one friendly small dog, and three cats, so I ask that any pets staying with us are comfortable around children and other animals. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding schedules, medications, exercise, and routines, and I treat every pet as if they were part of my own family.

About: I’ve lived with pets my whole life, and I am a very attentive and patient care giver. Any pet staying with me will get lots of attention and love. I will ensure timely feedings, plenty of fresh water, and lots of safety and love. I am a stay at home mom, and my oldest is in full time kindergarten, so I’ll have lots of time to care for your pet, 7 days a week. I have a recently remodeled fenced in back yard, that backs up to a beautiful, shaded nature walk on the edge of a wetlands nature preserve. Any walks we go on will have plenty of safe exploring for your pet. I have two male siamese cats of my own at home who are generally pretty tolerant of other animals. I also have two young children, ages 5 and 3 so as long as your pets are comfortable and good around kids we would love to love on your fur babies!

“Raina has done a wonderful job walking our dog. We had a lot of additional details and she can be a bit of a high maintenance pup and Raina took it all in stride. Our pup loves her and her walks!”

About: I have cared for and owned many kinds of cats & dogs throughout the years. I've had purebreds and mixed breeds, rescues and ferals even special needs. I’ve clipped nails, given pills and even shots when needed. I love all cats and dogs. . I am retired so I can easily schedule your pet into my daily routine. I'm available Monday through Sunday, whenever you have a need for me.. I will come to your home and care for your pets needs while you're away. I will clean in and around litter boxes and walk your dog. I’ll feed, water and give all of your fur babies love.

About: I've had dogs in my home since I was 10, ranging from newborns to ten years old, so I do have enough experience in walking, bathing, giving them medicine if they request. Until December 16, I am available from Thursday to Sunday, anytime. Currently, I do walk two dogs every day around noon. I have helped train one of these two dogs to obey commands after they have attended obedience school, and given them antibiotics as prescribed. I have stayed at the owner's home for the weekend while they were on vacation, so I took care of these dogs and carefully followed the owner's instructions. I can't whistle, unfortunately so if your dog listens to whistles, that dog may not be the one for me. I’m currently free for the summer! I go on runs twice a week, I love getting my steps in and I enjoy spending time with furry friends! I currently live in a cozy cottage in a gated apartment complex with my boyfriend. It also has an area for dogs, both big and small
