Dog Walking Park Stockdale

About: I have over a decade of experience caring for animals, starting from a young age and evolving into a professional career. I have a certificate in Veterinary Assistance, meaning I have a great understanding of animal health, behavior, and safety. I also completed my externship at Kern County Animal Services, where I gained experience in managing a clean environment and administrating medication. I worked at a luxury pet resort and I currently work at a pet boarding facility, which involves professional bathing techniques, ear cleaning, and skin health checks. Therefore, I have a keen eye for your pet’s physical well-being. Whether your pet needs specialized medical monitoring, senior care, or whole lot of playtime, I have the knowledge to ensure they are safe, happy, and pampered while you're away! I have open availability and can dedicate my time to caring for your pets. Monday-Friday, I am available for morning, afternoon, evening, and overnight stays as needed. I can provide walks, drop-in visits, feeding, companionship, and general pet care. On weekends, I am available for walks and drop in visits throughout the day. I treat your home and your pet with the utmost respect and care. Using my Veterinary Assistant training, I perform 'nose-to-tail' wellness checks during every visit to monitor for any changes in health or behavior. I stick strictly to your established feeding and medication schedules to maintain your pet's routine. Safety is my priority! I ensure all doors/gates are double checked and that your pet is never left in a hazardous situation.

“Jaden went above and beyond to walk our dog, Sirius. She took him to the park and got him pup cup! He absolutely adores her. Thank you so much!”

About: I am an animal lover who wants to make your animals feel save and loved 🤗. I’ve always had pets growing up and I currently pet sit for multiple families. I house and pet sit for short and long term needs, and am looking to expand my client base! Im currently going to school at Bakersfield College Monday-Wednesday! I will not be able to be home with your animals all day, but I will come and go when needed to make you and your animal feel comfortable. I will take care of your pet exactly as you would, following any house rules or boundaries you have set and make sure your pet gets the best care possible while I am there.

About: I have always grown up with having a pet in the home. Currently, I have two: a young 1 year old shitzu and a senior 11 year old maltipoo (you can imagine how they get along). I have basic skills on training some tricks. My true enjoyment is playing with pets. They heal something in me, and I think they know that. I am currently transitioning from being a full-time graduate student to full-time employee. It has been interesting to say the least. That said, my schedule is very flexible! I am on the onboarding process to a part time. However, I am happy to work with any owner to ensure a happy puppy. Unfortunately, I do not have a fenced front yard, so I will take out any pets with a leash for safety. I do have two small house dogs who are very friendly and happy to welcome any new friends.

“You cannot ask for anyone better than Katrina to walk your dog! She is punctual, knowledgeable about dogs, and she also clearly loves animals. My little terrier came back happy and exercised. Thank you, Katrina!”

About: I am often characterized as a compassionate person, and that I extend that care to animals as well. For most of my life I’ve learned that are family, and family is never felt behind. Pets deserve a good friend. I currently don’t have a job. But I do study for three days a week. I’d be best for part time. Four out of seven days a week. I follow whatever routine and set up pet owners have, since all dogs have their own life and personality. I routinely check for cleanliness of a pet and proper mental stimulation.

About: I’m a lifelong dog lover who has lived with 5 different dogs over the years and cared for friends’ and neighbors’ dogs as well when needed. In our free time alone, my dog Yeager and I like to go on adventures hiking and camping together. When I care for your dog, they will have all the love, play, and attention they need since I am at home full time. I am at home full time to care for your pet. I have a flexible schedule to maintain a safe environment and give them all of the attention they need. I have a fenced yard and one friendly dog. I can keep the dogs separated if needed and can crate your dog if they are crate trained (please provide your crate).

About: I focus on giving each dog consistent attention, patience, and a calm environment so they feel safe and comfortable. I follow care instructions exactly, keep routines consistent, and communicate clearly with daily updates and photos. I’m especially attentive to each dog’s behavior and energy level, making sure they get the right balance of play, rest, and care while you’re away. Pet care fits into my routine in a very consistent and flexible way. I naturally build my schedule around reliability and attention to detail, so I’m used to checking in on responsibilities throughout the day rather than letting things pile up. On a daily basis, I can dedicate time in the mornings, afternoons, and evenings for walks, feeding, playtime, and any needed check-ins on weekends. Evenings during the week. I’m good at adjusting my schedule to match the pet’s routine, whether that means early morning walks or evening drop-ins. On a weekly level, I plan ahead so I can make sure I’m available for longer care periods like overnights or multiple visits per day. I’m also comfortable being consistent with routines like medication schedules, exercise, and keeping the pet’s environment clean and safe. Overall, I treat pet care like a real responsibility, not something I “fit in” when convenient I structure my time around it to make sure the pet stays comfortable and cared for. In a client’s home, I focus on keeping the pet’s routine as normal and stress free as possible. I follow the instructions exactly as provided feeding schedule, portion sizes, walk times, medication (if any), and any specific behavior or care notes about the pet. For daily care, I make sure the pet gets attention, exercise, and interaction, not just basic needs. That can include walks, playtime, accidents if needed, refreshing water, and making sure the home is kept tidy and secure while I’m there. I’m also careful about safety double checking doors, gates, leashes, and making sure pets don’t get into anything they shouldn’t. I pay attention to how the pet is acting so I can notice any changes in mood, appetite, or behavior and communicate that right away if something seems off. I don’t just “stop by and do tasks” I treat it like I’m temporarily responsible for the pet’s wellbeing and comfort, and I make sure they feel calm and cared for while their owner is away.

About: I’ve been the family baby/dog sitter since I was 13! My whole family have always had pets and relied on me to take care of them! I’ve also taken care of my neighbors dog for several years enthusiastically. I’ve always found dogs to be the closest comfort, which is a reason to trust me. I’d take care of your dog like my own, as I hold them mine very close to my heart. I have a part time job working with kids, so I’m very available to book! I’m fully available four days of the week and I always have time to spend with your fur friends before and after work. In my home, I occasionally use a crate for my german shepherd, most of the time he is loose. He’s gotten accustomed to sleeping on my bed or my parent’s bedroom and we feed him early in the morning. Following his morning meal is a long walk. We make sure he’s well groomed with daily brushing and a wash once a week. Levi has allergies so we make sure to always apply topical remedies and purchase a high quality kind of dog food.

“Tuesday is great with Bailey. Very flexible with scheduling. I feel safe and secure leaving Bailey while I am away, because I know she is in good hands.”

About: I am a Fear Free certified veterinary technician of 13 years who grew up in the show dog world (AKC) before getting into rescue as an adult. Throughout my long-lived animal career I have participated in puppy/kitten/basic obedience training, behavioral rehabilitation, dog sport training, senior care, care for animals with extreme medical needs, and owned/operated a group play doggie daycare. My jobs, hobbies, and passions are all centered around animals and I can't wait to bring that passion to you! I am home full-time, and available for puppies and animals with heavy needs. I have a fairly set schedule for all of the pets in my care, and that level of routine provides comfort to even the most nervous of pups. I am the only Fear Free pet carer in Bakersfield! I provide comforting classical music as well as calming pheromones in the sleeping spaces to make their stay as stress-free as possible. I have a fenced yard and never leave dogs together unsupervised. I do not provide an environment suitable for animals with a history of dog aggression. Small dogs I can be more flexible with, as their attitude usually comes from a place of fear and that is something I can work with for the little guys.

About: Hi my name is Courtney, I am a Bakersfield resident and currently work part time around the corner from my house. I’ve been dog sitting friends dogs the last few years to help them out, this year I’ve been dog sitting for friends of friends. Since I have the time I wanted to provide my dog sitting services to others who are in need of a sitter since I enjoy it and it feels like second nature. I am currently working part time and have plenty of time to care for your pup. I will walk, and provide plenty of pets for your fur baby. I have a clean pet friendly home to keep your pup comfortable and safe. I can keep your dog on your schedule and provide medication if needed.

“Lindsay is extremely professional and communicative. She sends photos, updates, and notes everytime she comes. We are happy to trust her in our home, and with our baby. She has worked with us, despite an ever changing schedule. AMy pup loves her, and he is the true judge.”

About: I’ve had hands-on experience caring for pets of all ages, from energetic puppies to gentle seniors who need a little extra patience. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and I make it a priority to follow each pet parent’s instructions closely, so your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I go by routine Monday through Friday and am looking to fill all open hours with trustworthy care for your loved ones while you’re away even on weekends when openings are available. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or in yours, I create a calm, secure environment where they feel at ease. I carefully follow your pet’s routine — from feeding and walks to medications and bedtime rituals — so they feel consistency and immediate care even when you’re away.

About: Hi, I’m Alec. I’ve been around dogs and cats for over 20 years, and what sets me apart is my drive and hunger to provide the best care possible. I don’t just “watch” pets—I stay engaged, attentive, and focused on their comfort and safety. I take pride in being dependable, consistent, and going the extra step so your pets are well cared for every time. My schedule as a 1099 contractor is very flexible, and outside of work my routine is mostly going to the gym, spending time with family, and occasionally taking vacations. Because of that flexibility, pet care fits naturally into my lifestyle—I can easily adjust my time and prioritize pet sitting when needed. I’m reliable, attentive, and committed to making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. I will care for pets in a calm, safe, and attentive environment, whether in my home or the client’s home. I make sure their basic needs are always met, including feeding on schedule, providing fresh water, regular potty breaks, and daily exercise like walks and playtime. In my home, I keep the space clean, quiet, and pet-friendly so animals feel comfortable and stress-free. In a client’s home, I follow their routine closely so the pet feels secure in a familiar environment and experiences as little disruption as possible.

“Always great walks for my fur babies!”
