Dog Walking Northgate

About: I have worked with cats and dogs of all ages & sizes for the past 3 years with my previous employer, McCulloch Pet Sitting located in Las Vegas, NV. I recently have moved to Sacramento and am looking to continue pet sitting. I am Cat & Dog CPR & First Aid certified through American Red Cross. I currently am available for drop in visits and walks as of right now. Availability for overnight stays may open up in the near future. I am comfortable with pets of all kinds and will gladly perform proper feeding, walking and playing routines to ensure that they are well taken care of in the times requested.

“We’ve booked dog walk with Carrie for so many times. She takes cares of our dog and is very friendly. Definitely will have her walk our dog if she’s available!!! Thank you Carrie.”

About: As an educator with a bachelor's degree in Child and Adolescent Development, caregiving, patience, and responsibility are a huge part of who I am. I'm dependable, attentive, and comfortable pet sitting, feeding, walking, playing with pets, following detailed routines, and providing plenty of companionship and affection. I'm also completely comfortable with the less glamorous parts of pet care, including cleaning up poop and other messes, because I know that's simply part of keeping animals happy, healthy, and comfortable. I've had many pets of my own over the years, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can genuinely trust to care for your pet and your home while you're away. While I'm not able to have a pet of my own right now, I would love the opportunity to give that same care, attention, and affection to yours. I look forward to getting to know your pet, making them feel comfortable and loved, and caring for them as if they were my own. 🐾 My schedule allows me to provide pet care on weekends and during times when I'm not working. I'm available for drop-in visits, walks, feeding, playtime, and pet sitting, and I do my best to work with each pet owner's routine and scheduling needs. I understand how important consistency is for pets, especially when their owners are away, so I make sure they receive plenty of attention, care, and companionship. I take caring for someone's pet and being trusted in their home seriously. I carefully follow all instructions provided by the owner, including feeding schedules, walking routines, household rules, and any special preferences their pet may have. I pay close attention to doors, gates, leashes, and the pet's surroundings to help keep them safe and secure. I also make sure to clean up after pets and leave the home tidy, because I believe respecting someone's home is just as important as providing loving and dependable care for their pet.

About: Hi there! I am a recent law school graduate currently studying for the bar exam. In addition to growing up with dogs, I also have experience dealing with reactive dogs. For a time I had a rescue dog, Judge, who struggled with aggression, leash reactivity, and general fear/anxiety. Training with him and learning from him made me extremely educated on dog safety, care, and proper protocols when out on walks to ensure a good time for everyone involved. I recently moved to Sacramento after graduating law school, and would love to walk your dog (and maybe even help with some training) while I am studying for the bar exam. Hope to hear from you! My study schedule for the bar is exam is flexible as it is a self-paced course. I normally go for a walk in the mornings before I start my day, but I am free any time to assist! I have a large SUV that I’m happy to take your dog along in for a little adventure! My favorite daily walks in Sac is along the American River and I’d love to bring a pup along. I am also happy to stay local to wherever you live and wherever your dog is most comfortable.

“Payton was wonderful. She was able to come last minute. Lizzo warmed up to her quickly. She took good care of my dog. Would definitely recommend and be using her again.”

About: I've taken care of my dogs, friends' dogs, and house-sat for dog owners. I’m experienced with dogs of all energy levels and temperaments. I currently work Sunday through Wednesday, and I’m fully available Thursday through Saturday. On those days, I can give your pet my full attention and focus on their care, routine, and needs. On Sunday through Wednesday, I am available before 8 am and after 8 pm. I provide dog sitting and dog walking with a strong focus on safety, trust, and maintaining each dog’s normal routine. I am comfortable with small dogs and large dogs who need a lot of exercise.

About: Loved and cared for two puppies, potty trained them and how to sit and shake. Currently caring for our second chihuahua that is 10 y/o I am currently taking classes on the weekdays for a Personal Training program—which is really flexible. The weekends will be needed for a second job. Treating every pet and home like my own, I follow routines closely by keeping doors locked, sending photo updates, and staying responsive throughout your trip.

About: I have loved and cared for dogs for many years, but my real training started with my own dog Haku. He has taught me patience, routine, and how to understand different dog personalities. I am used to daily walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and making sure dogs feel safe and comfortable. Haku is friendly with children, other dogs, and cats, so I understand the importance of proper introductions and calm environments. Every dog has their own personality, and I genuinely enjoy getting to know what makes each one unique. I work from home, so I get to spend most of my day around dogs. I’m available for boarding on weekends and flexible during weekdays. Your pup will have company, regular walks, and a steady routine instead of being left alone all day. Dogs can sense calm energy, and I bring that into my home. I keep things structured but relaxed. I respect each dog’s personality and never force interactions. Haku runs quality control and makes sure every guest feels welcome.

“As first-time Rover users, we chose Alexandra and all we can say is Alexandra is the best! She is extremely prompt & communicative and was eager to help us navigate the app and Rover support when we realized we were being charged holiday fee outside of the holiday period. You can tell she genuinely cares about the pets she cares for while the owners are away. Thanks Alex!”

About: Ever since I was 10 I've taken care of dogs. I have experience in many different ages of dogs from newborn puppies to full grown. Since it is summer your pets will always fit in my schedule! Saturday and Sunday will be the only days I can't fit your pets in. I will always be willing to feed, clean, play and walk with your pets if they need it. I can stay overnight too as well.

About: I have experience with different collars and leashes, I have experience with large dogs and small dogs, and I have experience with reading dog body language, and leash training. I don’t currently have a job, so I have an open schedule to dog walks at almost any time. I can also do a scheduled walk weekly I have a large fenced yard in my own home that I own. But I prefer to take care of your animals at your own home so they feel more comfortable. Or walk them in a completely different location.

“Christina did a great job with my dog. Everything went well, and I’ll be using Christina again for m next vacation in July.”

About: There's something about caring for dogs and cats that brings my heart alive. There's nothing I'd rather do than care lovingly attentively for these animals. I am a retired English teacher, and my time is unlimited. I prefer long term, overnight sitting in your home. I am fit and love walking and playing with your loved one. I treat them as if they were my own. Having been raised caring for my families dogs, cats, horses, cows, ducks, fish, and even peacocks, I am most comfortable with animals. I follow instructions, administer medicine when necessary, and leave your home in perfect condition as you left it. Some folks say I'm too old to do this...I know I'm not. I can walk 2 miles easily with dogs. I have described my affection for dogs and cats which I hope reflects the care I will provide, and I would be so pleased to serve you.

“Christina was responsive and accommodating. She did a great job of providing me with doggie updates/pics throughout their walk”

About: What sets me apart is my experience with dogs of all ages, sizes, and energy levels. I fostered puppies and adult dogs for four years, which gave me hands-on experience caring for dogs with different personalities, needs, and backgrounds. I also grew up with working dogs, so I am very comfortable handling high-energy breeds and understand the exercise, structure, and attention they require. Whether it's a playful puppy, an active working dog, or a senior pet needing extra patience and care, I adapt to each animal's individual needs. I am confident handling dogs on walks and prioritize safety, consistency, and positive interactions. I am comfortable working with reactive dogs as well :) I am a full time student looking to fill my summer by taking care pets instead of adopting more! I have extremely open availability, whatever your pet needs Ill be there. I wholeheartedly understand the anxiety and stress that can come with leaving your pet in someone else's care, I have those same feelings when it comes to my own pets. Because of that, I will treat your pet as if they were my own, providing them with the same love, attention, and care that I would expect for my animals. Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness, along with your peace of mind, are always my top priorities. While I am caring for your pet, I will be readily available by text or phone and happy to provide updates, photos, and videos to help you feel connected and reassured while you're away. 🐾

About: I have been a dog owner for over a decade. I have owned rat/Boston/French terriers and German shepherds. Currently I have two dogs, Sally and Maggie. They are Boston terrier mixes who love to sunbathe and chase around tennis balls! I love dogs and am responsible and trustworthy. I am looking for full time employment at the moment, therefore I am a dog walker for the flexibility. A very close friend of mine, who I admire, recommended becoming a dog walker because I adore dogs. I have pet sat before and am high energy for these dogs. I would love to be able to form relationships with dogs on this site so regular customers are always welcomed. I tend to take my dog to Discovery Park regularly and they meet other dogs as well. I am currently looking for full time employment so I am flexible so I can chat with owners and find times that work for the pets! I have a fenced backyard and two lovely dogs although potential clients would need to meet my dogs to ensure safety! In a client's home, I would ensure they have a list of expectations regarding roles and am always respectful of the space, keeping the home as it was left.
