Dog Walking In Oakland

“Tamara was really flexible with my last-minute request, and did a great job communicating and taking care of my elderly dog while I was out of town. I would definitely recommend her!”

About: I've had pets since I was 9. From 9 till now I've had cats, dogs, fishes, and guinea pigs. I have experience with dealing with pets that may have previously trauma issues also with pets that may need careful care like medince or special needs. Even pets that don't need extra care just pets that wants to have long walks or need a lot of play time . I am currently in school. So I will be working part time for Rover. Evening and nights works best for the weekdays and for the weekends I am open for anytime you need. For cats do have multiple cat bags if they need to brought to a appointment or any where else. And foot dogs if you don't have a leach I can get one but I would prefer for you to have leeches and rates of pets need to be taken out of the house .

About: I’ve loved animals since I was a kid. My many years of pet ownership has trained me for this opportunity. My Chewy is both happy and healthy. I’m recently retired. My daily schedule is built around the needs of my boy, Chewy. He’s walked at minimum three (3) times a day; my friends and family know the routine. I have a secure deck to allow fresh air and free movement with guaranteed security. I have a crate if needed, but think all dogs should have free movement daily.

About: Hello!! My name is Julia I’m 23 and I love animals. Ever since I was little I’ve always had a special interest in nature and animas especially cats! One of my favorite childhood memories is rescuing feral kittens in my neighborhood and finding homes for them. In my teens years I started dog and cat sitting for friends and family and ever cared for horses and rabbits in my high schools FFA. As of now I’m a painter and artist with a lot of time on my hands and would love to spend some quality time with your pets! When staying with a pet I like to follow a schedule for potty and feeding times since familiar routines can calm pets that might be anxious around new people :)

“So nice and so sweet! My dogs love her!”

About: What sets me aside from other sitters is the love i have for animals. Since i was a little girl I've always loved being around animals they were and still are very therapeutic to me. I've had big dogs from Pitbull's, Dobermann, American bullies, all the way down to tiny dogs; yorkies, shitzu etc. even different kinds of cats you name it. As I've gotten older I've gained sooo much experience to the point I've had at home births with my dogs and cats all by myself; even home training my own animals as well. My goal here is to gain a work related reputation where i can truly start doing what i love and make a name for myself until i can become that super Veterinarian I've always dreamed of being. So far all i have is personal experience with dealing with animals at home and at my job(My residents animals). This would truly mean a lot if i can show off my skills and how genuine i am with animals and even people. Pet Care currently fits for me during the week days. I work doubles every Saturday and Sunday; whereas for school i do online Vet courses which is self pace. Which means i am free during the week Monday-Friday between 9am-5pm if communicated at least at least 30min-1hr in advanced i could stay later if needed. Although, I am a mother which means i can not do any services past 7pm nor any over night services. I also am located downtown Chicago but I am willing to travel!! One thing about me i will spoil your baby(s) haha; I am very hands on and affectionate with animals unless they require space lol. I have never been a crate animal person BUT i know every household is different and every animal requires different training. Again, animals bring a lot of joy to my heart; very therapeutic for me and if given the chance you wouldn't be disappointed i promise!.

“Q was great with Remi! She showed up ready to walk him and was prepared with any questions she had.”

“Mariam has been a great dog walker for our senior dog Hannah- she is attentive, observant, caring and a great communicator. She goes above and beyond by giving our cats some attention as well and picks up on small details with our dog who is on medication which brings us such peace of mind.”

About: I’ve volunteered at Chicago Animal Care and Control for years, so I continue to work with all sorts of animals with even the most troubled backgrounds. I’m comfortable with any temperament and can even administer medication if necessary. I’ve personally had pets my whole life, including cats, guinea pigs, and reptiles. Currently, I have a cat and a bearded dragon, and they’d love to make some new friends! :) I pet sit full-time, so I’m available all day and your baby has my full attention. I work in consulting and higher education usually, but I’m in between formal jobs at the moment, so I can be home all day. With only a cat and bearded dragon at home, I have enough space to house another cat or small dog. I don’t crate, but I can put them in separate rooms if necessary. They are my only job so I’d be around 24/7 to watch them.

About: While I do not currently share my life with a dog of my own (it's a matter of being unable to adopt every dog I lay my eyes on!), I dearly love helping pet parents keep their dogs happy and healthy and preferably in their own homes while their owners are away. I love to travel,and love to spend time with as many dogs as I can possibly fit into my day. You can often find me chatting with others about their animals, and I am always interested in hearing about every little detail. I enjoy helping people get a greater understanding regarding the welfare of their animals, and sometimes bore my friends with random and obscure dog breeds, and what I know of their temperament and behavior. I'm proud to say I try to research as many breeds as I can so that I know what to expect, and hey, it's always fun to just know why and how a breed came into existence! I happen to also be studying veterinary technology, for the knowledge of nutrition and behavior, since surgery is more information than I want. :D I am also very happy to drop by or stay with your cats, and am quite used to the varying personalities of these small creatures: the ones who like to play hide and seek, the aloof, the playful, and the grumpy. I don't mind at all, as long as the cat is comfortable, eating, and using their litter box, all is well! I can work my day around your dog or cat, as I am a dedicated sitter, and much prefer to spend my time enjoying the company of cats and dogs as much as I can. I much prefer to stay with the dog or cat in their own home, as having their familiar surroundings help them remain peaceful, happy, and comfortable.

About: For several years, I've helped look after the pets of my family, friends, and roommates. I currently live with 3 cats, have lived with a pit lab mix for several years, and a chihuahua as well. I've taken care of pets with various temperaments, from more outgoing and energetic, to more anxious and reserved. Every pet has their own needs, personality, and boundaries. I take this into consideration every time I care for a pet. I've puppysitted for both of my sisters, will routinely look after my sister's double doodle for weeks at a time, and we're always excited to see each other. While I do not currently own any pets, I'm a proud pet uncle who is always excited to spend time with people's dogs and cats. I am currently flexible to provide pet care on any day, weekday or weekend. My only constraint is that I'm busy on Wednesday afternoons from 2pm-5pm. I'm primarily focusing on providing house sitting, dog walks, and drop-in services for both dogs and cats. In certain cases, I can provide boarding services for cats in my apartment, but not for dogs. If interested in boarding services for your cat, please contact me and we can discuss if I can provide the right service for you. I live in a large apartment with 3 cats that stay in my roommates' rooms. There are a lot of windowsills for cats to lay on, a sun room, and cat toys as well. My roommates' cats have experience being around other cats, but dogs not so much. Therefore, I'd only offer boarding services for cats, where I'd keep the cat's feeding area and litter box in my room. When housesitting and providing drop-ins, I'll ensure your home stays clean, pet stays in whatever boundaries you specify (i.e. if you don't allow your pets on furniture or certain floors). I'll respect your home as if it were my own.

“Lillian has been great with my dogs and very communicative throughout the walks. She took the time to make sure they were comfortable, shared updates and photos, and went above and beyond with their care. I really appreciated her flexibility and willingness to work with my schedule, especially while I was out of town. I felt confident knowing my dogs were in good hands, and I would absolutely recommend her to other pet parents.”

“Simone was very prompt everyday for the week she walked my dog Fred. Most importantly, she was very kind a d Fred adored her. He already misses her!”

About: I love taking care of pets (mostly cats)! I will make sure your pet has been walked (for dogs) playtime, a clean litter box (for cats), and the proper food to make sure they're healthy. I'm currently working full time, but I have plenty of time in the evenings for your pet! I'm available after 5pm during the week and after 12pm on Saturdays. For in-home services, I make sure to follow all the directions the owner gives me. I also will clean up and alert the owner if their pet has an accident or throws up in their home.

“Consistent, punctual, communicative, and generous. She shows up everyday in a timely manner, cares for my dog, and even gives complementary baths and cleaning if she makes a mess. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED 🤗 she offers a good range of services as well!!”

“Ashleigh did a great job with our girl Mabel! Mabel’s new to the family and still adjusting and Ashleigh put my mind at ease while I was away for the weekend.”
