Dog Walking Pedley

About: About Me Hi, I’m Marissa, owner of Shining Light’s K9 Services! Open all year round. I have extensive experience caring for dogs of all breeds, ages, and temperaments—including those with aggression, reactivity, or other behavioral challenges. Over the years, I’ve worked in multiple dog hotels/doggy daycares, in pet grooming, and as a freelance trainer, giving me a well-rounded understanding of canine care and behavior. I specialize in creating a safe, structured, and comfortable environment for every dog I work with. Whether your pet needs a calm walk, a high-energy run, targeted training, or simply loving companionship, I tailor my approach to their unique needs. Administering medications is never an issue, and I pride myself on excellent communication so you can feel at ease while you’re away. Your dog’s safety, happiness, and progress are always my top priorities. With me, your fur baby will be in experienced, loving, and capable hands. Pet care is my full-time job and passion. I run my own business, Shining Light’s K9 Services, from home, so caring for dogs is part of my daily routine from morning to night. I structure my day around feeding schedules, walks, playtime, training sessions, and any special care each pet needs. Because this is my full-time work, I have the flexibility to give your pet consistent attention, exercise, and companionship throughout the day. Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first. In my home, I offer multiple sleeping options so your dog feels at ease—whether that’s a cozy crate, a comfy dog bed in my living room, or even in my bedroom if that’s what they’re used to. I maintain a clean, secure environment, with constant supervision and safe spaces for rest or play. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow your instructions exactly to keep their routine consistent and stress-free. I make sure food, water, and medications are given on schedule, and I always take time for walks, play, and affection. Whether at my home or yours, my goal is to ensure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away.

About: I volunteered at the Riverside County Animal shelter for two years before I became consumed with work. There I learned pet behaviors and how to read their body language. During my time at the shelter, I worked with anxious, high energy, and senior dogs. At home I have a GSD, ACD, and two smaller dogs. I have worked through food aggression during feeding time and anxiety around water while bathing my GSD. I’ve also handled people-reactivity while walking my ACD. I have also mastered administering oral medication in both pill and liquid form. I work part time typically in the mornings and sometimes in the afternoon noon. Although I do not have a set work schedule, I will still plenty of time caring for your pets. I have a fenced yard with four other pet friendly dogs. I also have a smaller section to keep your pet(s) separated if needed. If you have a smaller pet, I can also keep them indoors. You can trust me to keep your home clean and secured while I take care of your pets. I will follow any instructions you give me and go above and beyond with your pets. If you have any smaller pets in the home that need caring while I am caring for your pet (such as a snake or lizard), I can care for them too!

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is that, I have an infinite amount of patience with pets, I often come off overly professional as far as training within the skills I have, lastly, why dog, puppy, cat, or kitten doesn’t need more love in their life? I don’t have any schedule restrictions. I have an entirely open schedule so feel free to book whenever you need. Home most of the time. How I care for pets in my clients home is making sure some type of physical activity occurs to ensure excellent physical health, as well as proper meal times (meal preps). Letting the clients pet do at least something that they find joy in (of course, something safe and harmless).

About: I have grown up with dogs, and being around them my whole life has taught me to read their body language and understand their needs and wants. I’ll make sure your pup stays happy and healthy! I am available between 6am - 6pm every day of the week for walks or drop-in visits. I am taking online courses so my schedule is very flexible. I make sure your dog has ample opportunity to go to the bathroom, has access to water at all times, and if required, meals are provided.

About: I have been taking care of pets since I was little and I currently have 2 cats that I have been caring for the past 8 years now and a puppy that belongs to my sister that I look after a lot to help her out sometimes when she’s working and so I think that I’m definitely a great person to rely on for these kinds of things. I’m currently working part time as I am a third year college student who’s major is fine and applied arts and goes to school currently but can take care of your pets anytime of the day all week including weekends and holidays. I care for them by having a feeding schedule for them, cleaning up after them, bathing them, taking them on walks and just playing with them through out the day.

About: I grew up with dogs and have had them as part of my family my entire life, so caring for them feels natural to me. I know every dog has their own personality, energy level, and needs, so I take time to follow instructions carefully. Whether your dog loves long walks or slow sniffing strolls, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable and cared for, just like I treat my own <3 I'm a student with a flexible schedule. Much of my work is done from home, so dog walking fits naturally into my weekly routine. I already enjoy going on walks, so this feels like a great way to spend time with pets while helping owners with reliable walk support. :) Since I’m currently only offering dog walking, my priority is making each walk safe, comfortable, and enjoyable for your dog. I’ll follow your instructions closely, keep your dog securely leashed, and pay attention to their energy level and surroundings. I understand that every dog has different needs, so I’ll make sure the walk matches what feels best for them.

About: Rest assured knowing that your furry child will be left in neurturing hands. Everyone that walks into our door is considered family and we treat them as such. I have been a pet owner for 12 years and I've dedicated myself to being the best pet mother I can be. I believe that being a pet owner for so many years helped develop the nurturing skills I have when caring for my 5year old child. Animals are my passion which is why I provide excellent service for them as well as their lovely owners. Daily walks to the park, hourly potty breaks and play time. At night, all pets sleep in the dog room. Durning the day pets are able to roam the house freely.

About: Hi! My name is Sherleen and I love dogs and have always grown up with them. I had a childhood chihuahua that I took care of for over 15 years. I now have a malte poo and a pug that I’ve been raising for over 11 years since before they could be weaned from their mom. You can imagine the nights waking up to feed them like human babies! I’ve picked up doggie accidents that seemed like natural disasters and have groomed and bathed my dogs since having them. I’ve cared for dogs from shelters who have trust issues around humans, dogs with behavioral issues and health issues. This includes giving them routine medication around the clock, dedicating time to gaining trust, or as simple as them needing help cleaning themselves after using the restroom. I own 2 Brachycephalic dogs so I also understand the attention those breeds require. Personally, my pug is allergic to fleas and ticks so my house and yard are flea and tick free for her safety! I am a college student who’s doing classes online this summer and can 100% dedicate attention and care. Dogs are our babies and deserve nothing less! I currently work with students as an orchestra tutor and a coach working with students ranging of ages. I work around schedules for students and I can do the same for people needing pet sitting! As a school district worker I am required to do background checks and fingerprints to be a teacher, I understand having a stranger take care of your dog can be stressful but with this knowledge I hope I can ease some of your minds. As a dog owner it’s only essential to give your dog attention, interaction and above all, patience. Dogs like playing, walking or just chilling with their owners and those things vary between dogs! Some have way more energy than other dogs and it’s important to know what they need especially since they can’t talk for themselves. In my household I have a yard that my dogs stay outside for the majority of the day. When bringing in new dogs, I will keep your dog/s indoors and take care of their needs at all times with me so in the case they’re not used to other pups I have a barrier.

About: I have a love and passion for pets! A weakness in my heart, I have always taken care of animals having so many in my life. From pet sitting my friends, family members, and even taking care of my own when I got my first ever dog at six years old- my baby BooBoo (a terrier mix). I have a passion for all animals even our little snake and reptile friends. I know it is very anxiety-inducing when leaving a pet to a stranger, but I still have a hard time letting my dog be watched by my friends! So I know it's a process for both the owner and the pet. I am very loving, caring, and patient with pets and see them as more than just the title "pet" but part of the family! I work part-time and am a college freshman, so I am usually free on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays. Whenever days open up for me I will list them immediately! I carefully overview the loving instructions I get from the pet owner and be sure to carefully follow them through while also being very attentive, caring, patient, and loving with these pets. I never want to put pets through a stressful situation and make sure the owner feels anxiety free when leaving their pet in my care. I will always care for the pet as if it was my own.

About: I’ve taken care of pets since 2020, ranging from chihuahuas to large golden doodles! I love the energetic pups as well as the calm ones, they’re all extremely sweet babies. I’m currently post-grad searching for jobs so my schedule is pretty open! Ideally morning and nighttime routines would be best to create a balanced schedule. I love to make your pets feel comfortable and happy, whether they like to be cuddle or left alone, I do anything in my power to make sure their tails stay wagging.

About: I’ve taken care of other people’s pets, mostly dogs and cats, since I was young. Family and friends would go on long trips or short weekend vacations and I would feed, play, and walk their fur babies. I also had a dog of my own, a pembrook welsh corgi, and took care of him for many years. I work a full-time job but it is partly a remote position so I would be able to spend whole weekdays on most Wednesday’s and Fridays if needed. I’m also available for weekends. I understand taking care of another person’s pet is a very important responsibility and I will send photos and cute videos to ensure you stay updated on your pet’s care.

About: I've always loved taking care of cats and dogs. They are the most precious beings who deserve the best of love, care and respect. I have three sweet fur babies (2 cats and dog) of my own who will have no trouble befriending yours, may it be a cat or dog. I work from home and have a very flexible schedule for catering to your furbaby' needs. I can accommodate your per's specific routine or schedule to make their stay as comfortable as possible. I have a fenced backyard and a sweet cat and dog who will keep your furbaby company. I keep a clean house for your cat or dog to relax and have plenty of pet toys to offer to keep your furbaby entertained. I have doggy gates to install if the pets need to be separated for if needed. I have extra bowls and beds for your furbaby to choose from. Your furbaby will be treated with so much love and care!

About: Hi, I’m Jessica! I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 15, with hands-on experience caring for small to medium-sized breeds. I’ve also worked with dogs that have special needs, including administering medication and offering support during recovery. I'm passionate about animals and love creating a safe, nurturing environment for them while their owners are away. Whether it’s playtime, feeding, daily walks, or extra cuddles, I’m committed to giving your dog the attention, care, and love they deserve. As a stay-at-home mom, I have plenty of time to give your pets the love and attention they need. Walks are a regular part of my daily routine, so your dog will enjoy lots of fresh air, exercise, and fun. I’m home throughout the day, which means lots of playtime, cuddles, and care! You can count on me to treat your pet like family. I’m reliable, responsive, and focused on making sure your dog feels comfortable and loved. I understand the trust it takes to leave your pet with someone, and I’m here to give you peace of mind.

“Very reliable, and does a good job walking my dog!”

About: I’ve had animals my entire life, so I have gained quite a bit of experience taking care of them and picking up after them. I absolutely love animals with all my heart, and have cared for all sorts of them: cats, dogs, turtles, fish, birds, you name it! I am extremely responsible and have the patience and love to fulfill all of your pet’s needs! I feed my dog and cats every day. I pick up after them in the yard every couple weeks. I walk my dog occasionally, but play with him every day. I pet and play with my cats all the time! In my client’s home, I follow all instructions and timelines. I show love and care to each and every animal. I clean up after the animals when needed. Whatever you request, I will do! And more!

About: I’m a college grad who loves animals and would be grateful to take care of your furry friend for some extra cash on the side. It’s a win-win! Dogs are my specialty as I’ve had two lovely puppers for over 15 years, but I also ADORE cats of all kinds! I live on the borderline between Riverside and Jurupa Valley. I love going on walks, but they get lonely sometimes so I’d love to take your special one along with me. I can take them on walks around the city or down to the park. I'm very good on feeding times, provided you (the owner) brings along some chow for the pet. Let me know if you have any questions! Available for the holidays :) I currently have extra time this summer/holidays to give closer and special attention to your furry friend. I understand pet parent anxiety!! I’m a bit of a phone-dependent-gen-Zer, so I can assure you you’d be receiving constant updates if necessary. Depending on your pet’s usual behavior, I can match their energy whether it’s a young pup that needs extra play time or a senior pet that needs some quiet time and calming caresses. My home is almost always quiet or no louder than a moderate noise level as there are no children or pets present, or devices such as TVs or speakers being utilized at high volumes.

About: I’ve had dogs since I was 11. I’ve fed, walked, hiked, groomed, and have been the primary caretaker of my dogs. In addition, I have pet sat my friends dogs and cats for the last 7 years. I work full time and go to school part time. I love running and long walks, especially with a furry companion. Pet care is always a part of my life I have a fenced in yard with coyote fence rollers and a nice side yard that is made up mostly of grass so my dogs have plenty of room to run around. I typically do everything with my dogs which include sleeping with them, going on my daily walks with them, and feeding them on a strict schedule.

About: I already love your furbabies, we just haven't met yet! ❤️❤️❤️ Many people call me a "Dog Whisperer," and while I don’t claim the title, animals respond to my calm, intuitive presence. I bring emotional attunement, patience, and loving structure to every visit. Whether your baby is playful, shy, or needs extra TLC, I honor their unique personality. Pet sitting is more than a side gig; it’s a healing, heart-centered exchange. I offer sacred companion care that gives your pet peace and you peace of mind. I'm a Certified Self-Love Coach with a flexible schedule, which allows me to prioritize your pet’s care with presence and ease. I structure my day around the needs of the animals in my care. Whether it’s early mornings, midday walks, or calm overnight stays, I make space for them to feel safe, seen, and loved. While sitting, I read, reflect, or study, but their comfort always comes first. I care for pets in the comfort of their own home, where their routines, scents, and surroundings bring them calm. I ask detailed questions ahead of time (walk schedule, feeding preferences, medication, etc.) and follow your instructions to the letter. My care style is clean, respectful, and rooted in trust. I adapt to each animal's rhythm and always check in if something feels off. Your home is your sanctuary, and I treat it with the same care I give to your pet.

About: I’m a dedicated dog mom with hands-on experience caring for both puppies and senior dogs. I have 2+ years of experience with puppies, including potty training, basic routines, and helping them adjust to new environments. I also have 3+ years of experience caring for senior dogs, including administering medication and providing gentle, attentive care. I understand that every pet has their own personality and needs, and I always aim to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or quiet companionship, I treat every pet like my own. Pet care naturally fits into my routine because I’ve always been a dog mom. I currently have a dog of my own, so daily care, walks, and attention are already part of my lifestyle. I have a consistent schedule and make time each day to ensure pets get the care, exercise, and attention they need. I’m reliable, organized, and committed to keeping your pet’s routine as normal and stress-free as possible. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I make sure all pets are fed on schedule, have constant access to fresh water, and are always supervised in a safe environment. During walks, I stay attentive to surroundings and your pet’s behavior to ensure they feel secure and get the right amount of exercise. I follow any specific instructions closely, including feeding routines, medications, or special care needs. I treat every pet like my own and always aim to create a calm, loving, and trustworthy environment.

About: I have had and cared for dogs my entire life, ranging from rescues to purebred puppies, and from small breeds to very large dogs. I especially love big dogs and am very comfortable handling strong, high-energy breeds. Currently, I have two pitbull/boxer mix rescues and a pure Anatolian Shepherd Dog, so I understand the importance of patience, consistency, exercise, and attentive care. I have experience with feeding schedules, walks, playtime, administering basic care, and making dogs feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I am dependable, caring, and passionate about giving every dog the attention and love they deserve! As a collegiate athlete home for the summer, pet care fits well into my daily routine and gives me the opportunity to spend time doing something I genuinely enjoy. I love combining my own exercise with caring for dogs through walks, runs, and active playtime. Since I already have experience caring for my own dogs, adding pet sitting into my schedule feels very natural, and I enjoy giving dogs the attention, activity, and care they need throughout the day. I make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for whether they are in my home or their own home. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, bathroom breaks, exercise, playtime, and any specific instructions from the owner. I especially enjoy keeping dogs active through walks or runs, while also making sure they get plenty of attention and affection. I understand that every dog has a different personality and energy level, so I focus on creating a calm, dependable environment where they feel comfortable while their owners are away.
