“Katherine took the time to do a meet and greet a day before the scheduled walk. This past week, she has taken great care of my fur baby, was very communicative and kept me informed of all her activities. I truly appreciate the promptness and friendly and caring service!”


About: With over 15 years of experience in dog walking and personalized pet sitting, I’ve cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages and temperaments. I’ve also fostered more than 35 puppies and dogs for rescue organizations, in addition to my own pets, helping them grow into confident social companions so that they can find their home. In addition, I bring over 11 years of dog training experience, allowing me to work confidently with shy, high-energy and/or behaviorally unique pups. I understand that every dog is different and I tailor my training to meet each one’s individual needs. Your dog’s safety, comfort and happiness are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each dog’s unique personality, routine and needs - whether that means high-energy playtime, structured walks or a slower, more relaxed pace for shy and/or senior pups. I always move at their comfort level, respect boundaries, and use positive, gentle handling to create a safe and stress-free experience. During every visit, I make sure your dog receives attentive care, companionship, and plenty of enrichment. I’m happy to follow specific feeding routines, administer basic medications, reinforce training cues, and keep their environment clean and secure. With my background in photography, you’ll receive high-quality photo and video updates after each visit - so you can feel connected, reassured and confident that your dog is happy and well cared for while you’re away. I currently work from home, which gives me plenty of flexibility to provide your pets with the time, attention and care they deserve. I focus on keeping them both physically active and mentally stimulated, whether that’s through walks, playtime, enrichment activities and/or simply providing companionship. We have access to two fenced-in dog parks within my complex, providing a safe and fun space for exercise and play. I also have a friendly 5 year old spayed female dog, up-to-date with vaccines, who gets along great with both dogs and cats - she loves having company, whether it’s for playtime or just relaxing at home watching TV.
About: I’ve loved dogs and cats since the day I was born. I’m a dog (cat) mom and have worked with rescue animals. Being with animals brings me so much joy and it’s a job I take very seriously. I’m a full time dog walker, cat sitter and It has been my dream job for years. Sadly due to the circle of life, I’ve lost several animals (including my senior pup) recently and would love to have some new fur friends in my life. Having me in your home will give you a big piece of mind as I am very outgoing, respectful, clean, efficient, and believe in karma!
“My baby Maggie just returned from her walk with Megan so happy!!! Megan clearly read the profile and followed our advice. We are very protective of our pet and so happy that we tried Megan. Fantastic!!”

About: I’ve always been obsessed with dogs for as long as I can remember. I got my first dog when I was 6, and she became the love of my life. I cared for her until I was 19. She was my best friend, part of my daily routine, and went everywhere with me. Since then, I’ve had two rescue dogs, Nani (6) and Lupita (2), who are my whole world. My pets are truly family! They sleep with me, have birthday parties, and are treated with all the love and care they deserve. Because I know how hard it is to trust someone with your biggest treasure, I care for every pet as if they were my own. All my friends always leave their dogs with me when they travel because they know how much love and attention I give to every animal. I have experience walking, bathing, grooming, and playing with dogs of all ages. I’ve also trained my own dogs to follow simple commands like sitting, catching the ball, and peeing on command. I have experience caring for both puppies and senior dogs, my first dog had cancer, and I made sure her final years were full of love and comfort. I run my own business from home, so I have a super flexible schedule! I’m home most of the day, which means your pets will always have company, attention, and lots of love. I can easily adjust my routine for walks, drop-ins, or overnight care. I don’t host pets in my home because I need to respect my older dog, Nani, she’s super sweet but takes time to get comfortable around new dogs. Instead, I offer house sitting and walks at the client’s home. This way, your pet can stay relaxed in their own space, following their routine and getting all the love and care they need.
About: As someone who has grown up surrounded by my pets (dogs, cats, chickens, birds, and even newts!), caring for animals comes naturally to me, and I genuinely love connecting with pets of all kinds. I currently have two cats of my own, who I raised from kittens and who are now my besties. additionally, I have hands-on experience with dogs and cats of all ages—from energetic puppies and kittens to senior pets. I’m comfortable administering medication, following special routines, and making sure your pet feels loved and secure while you're away. I offer drop-in visits, walks, medication administration as needed, and lots of love, playtime and updates! Since I work from home, my schedule is flexible and I’m available for morning, daytime, or evening visits. Whether your pet needs a quick potty break, a walk around the block, or some company and cuddles while you're out, I’m here to help. I know how important it is to find someone you trust so feel free to reach out with any questions or to schedule a meet and greet. I’d love to get to know you and your furry friend! I work from home full-time, which gives me a lot of flexibility to care for pets throughout the day. I am available mornings and evenings, and can likely make myself available during the work day hours if needed. When caring for pets in their own homes, I focus on maintaining their usual routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I arrive on time for drop-in visits or walks, ensuring your pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, and affection tailored to their needs. I treat your pet as if they were my own, respecting their space and personality. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands.
About: I've been caring for cats since I was atleast 8. One of our cats was a stray who I bonded with over many months and continue to bond with now even though she is a bit frosty in her old age. The trust we have built for each other has been a beautiful experience. My family rescued a senior dog in 2016 and I have helped to care for her since then. I have a soft spot for senior dogs and want to make them as comfortable as I can. I work part time at the LMU library so my hours are pretty minimal. I work Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday in the evenings. As I am hoping this will be a second source of income I am pretty flexible with my schedule as long as it doesn't interfere with my other job. I do not like to make a mess or any sort of impression in places that I visit. I am very patient with animals. If your pet is anxious or introverted I am fine to keep to myself completely or get to know them on their terms. I would never want to cross any line with a pet or homeowner.
“Sarah and Karl are wonderful to work with! They’re reliable, communicative, and always send updates and photos from each walk. My dog can be a little anxious around new people but they were so patient and understanding from the start. Now, she looks forward to her walks with them. It’s clear she feels safe and happy in their care. Highly recommend!”

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was eight years old, walking, feeding, cleaning and caring for both my own dogs and others' (family, friends, neighborhood dogs, hired sitters) dogs when needed. My fiancee and I have fostered dogs, mostly senior dogs to be specific, for over three years while managing careers and our own lovely Sheepadoodle. I can be your dog's best friend and I can give you the peace of mind that your furry friend is with a very attentive sitter/walker. I'm currently working part-time in a job that is very flexible, so I'm mostly available for your pups! I'm available for overnight stays seven nights a week, and currently there are no firm day-time issues to schedule around for shorter jobs like walks and play visits. I ensure that the pet is well-tended to, supervising it with very close eyes if needed. Additionally, I ensure that the space is dog-friendly and safe for the dog to roam around. Any doors that need to be closed, are in fact closed; and anything that the dog could get into or break will be safely hidden for the mean time.
About: I have had lots of experience dog sitting and walking in the past. I have walked all different types and ages of dogs. I will make sure your dog is safe and has an amazing time on their walk. I work from home and have availability during the day to take breaks and take your dog for a walk if you're local. I also have time after work and on weekends for dog walks. Happy to dog sit. Always respectful of your place and will make sure it maintains the status you left it in. My apartment building does not allow dogs.

About: I have a passion for animal care! I have years of experience caring for both dogs and cats, including raising my own Australian Lab Henry, caring for my friends’ and neighbors’ pets, and even volunteer work helping facilitate equine therapy. I can’t wait to meet and treat your best friend! I am a full-time student in-between programs at the moment, so my days are largely free. This leaves most of the week open for looking after your pet! I do not have the facilities to keep or look after your dog in my own studio apartment, but I am happy to watch over your pet in their own home or take them on walks! I can easily clean up after your pet, follow precise feeding directions, take them on adventures of their own (from the sidewalk to the park!) and crate them up at the end of the day.
About: I have 10 years experience as a pet/house sitter. A mix of cats, dogs, and even a few chickens. Sits have been anywhere from 3 days to 6 months. Once I sit for a pet, I become the owners go to sitter. I’ve been responsible for all the regular duties - feeding, taking for walks, playing with, administering medications (oral and iv), etc. I also have basic dog training experience. If needed, I can provide mail collection, regular house checks and plant care. Also, some owners have special requests that I can easily accommodate. Currently, I am available for overnight stays in pet owners homes. I prefer a minimum of 2 nights. Almost all of my pet sitting experience have been sits that are a week or more. I am also available for drop in feedings and walks. I strive to take care of your pets as well as and attentively as you do. Minimizing change in their routine to lessen any stress. I will treat your home with the utmost respect and you will return to a happy pet and home well cared for.
“We were so impressed with the level of care Alyssa provided for our dog. She's responsible, communicative and very attentive your pet's needs. We would absolutely reach out to her for any pet care needs in the future. She goes above and beyond--your pet will be in dependable and capable hands with Alyssa.”

“Josh is my favorite walker for Miska . Josh knows how to handle my big dog who can be quite stubborn. She is not the easiest dog to walk with a husky like personality and her malamute size and so I really appreciate that he is comfortable with her and she with him and he always available to take her out when I am on travel. +he is flexible with my many change of plan. Really appreciate !!”

Our dog, Tucky, is very particular about the people he warms up to, so we’re always cautious when leaving him with someone. He absolutely loved Adam! They had the best time together, and it was clear from the start that Tucky felt comfortable. Adam was incredibly communicative throughout the stay and sent lots of updates, photos, and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind. We came home to a happy pup and would not hesitate to book with Adam again. Highly recommend! 🐾
Kevin is THE BEST!! I have a Husky who can be a little crazy on the leash so I always worry. I had to travel for 24 hours and asked Kevin to come walk and check on Mac a few times. He was super communicative which made me feel that Mac was in good hands and that I could trust him to keep Mac safe. I came back to a very happy, chill doggo :)

Nicholle was extremely communicative and helped us out with dog walks last minute. I felt confident that the dogs were well taken care of, and she helped bring in packages and top up their water too. She was even understanding when I ended up canceling one of our scheduled walks last minute. Thanks Nicholle!

Nick is great!! Sweet guy, easy going and great communication. I have two Shar Pei and he handled them beautifully. Dialed-in to the dogs and physically strong which puts me at ease since you never know what you can encounter on walks around Venice. Will for sure hire him again. 5 stars!

My dog Hope had a wonderful first walk with her. She was able to help us on short notice, which we really appreciated, and she took Hope out for a full hour with great care and attention. Even though it was her first time walking Hope everything went smoothly and we felt completely satisfied. Hope came back happy, calm, and well cared for. I’d gladly book with her again.
