Dog Walking Playa del Rey

“Super quick response upon requesting a dog walking service. Natalie is awesome and so kind! Our larger size dog was taken on a nice evening stroll. Natalie went above and beyond and even hung out with our cat too. Which meant a lot to us! We recently moved to the USA, and we are very pleased with Natalie's service and will always try to book our future walks with her first. Thank you Natalie :)”

About: Hi! Long time pet sitter & owner. Recently had my two senior dogs pass over the last 2 years and looking to fill my love of animals without the committment. Looking for dog boarding opportunities for family-friendly dogs of all sizes! Have a pool available for your water dogs as well! :) Hi! I'm currently working from home and available for walks and in-home boarding services for dogs of all sizes. Available to walk, cuddle, play, etc ! Currently do not have any other pets living in the home (our senior dogs passed recently). Have one toddler who loves animals. Your dog must be good with children! Have a fenced in backyard and pool. I only take dogs from the same family so you can be assured your pet will be the only one in my home during its stay!

About: Hi, fellow dog lovers! I’m Yijiao, and caring for dogs has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up with my aunt’s dog, and 12 years ago, I welcomed my own dog, Kimi, into my life. Over the years, I’ve been trusted with and cared for dogs from family, friends, and even coworkers, helping with everything from daily walks and feeding routines to playtime, cuddles, and keeping them comfortable in their own routines (even made homemade jerky and snacks!). I also have hands-on experience caring for senior dogs and a personal interest in canine nutrition. I’ve spent time studying pet nutrition and exploring fresh-food preparation. I love learning about what helps dogs feel their best, and I’m happy to accommodate your pup’s individual needs and preferences. What Makes My Care Special? - Your dog gets my full attention. I intentionally care for one dog at a time, so your pup won’t have to compete with a crowd for attention, affection, or playtime. - Care tailored to their personality. Whether your dog is an energetic adventurer, a curious explorer, or a senior sweetheart who prefers leisurely strolls and cozy naps like my dog, I’ll meet them where they are. - More than just walks. Expect plenty of companionship, enrichment, playtime, affection, and time to relax—whatever makes your dog happiest. - Updates that keep you smiling. I’ll send photos and videos throughout the day, so you can see how your pup is doing and enjoy a little peace of mind while you’re away. My Schedule Is Your Pup’s Advantage I’m currently taking a career break, which means I have a flexible schedule and can dedicate my day to caring for your dog. I’m not trying to squeeze pet care into a busy workday—spending quality time with dogs is something I genuinely enjoy. My goal is simple: when you leave your pup with me, I want you to feel confident that they’re not just being looked after, but truly cared for, because that's what I would have wanted for my dog. I can’t wait to meet your four-legged family member and learn all the little things that make them special! I’m able to accommodate weekday and weekend bookings and can be flexible with walks, drop-ins, and house sitting depending on each pet’s needs. My schedule is currently flexible as I recently took some time away from my corporate career to explore my true interests and make more time for the things I genuinely enjoy - one of them has always been spending time with dogs! I treat every pet like they’re my own. I try to keep their normal routine as consistent as possible- from meals, walks, to playtime, cuddles, and sleeping schedule. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality and needs. I’m happy to follow detailed instructions and keep owners updated with photos and videos (I’m also great at photography hehe).

About: Loving family, we adore our four-legged friends. We have two pups of our own, Marley and Obi-Wan. They are a fun sweet duo. We all enjoy going on walks in the neighborhood and there are many dog parks and trails nearby. We have a decent sized back yard which is fenced in with a high fence. We live in a huge home with two stories has plenty of room for the pups to be comfortable and have their space. We typically only board one pup a night but we will make exceptions for same family or close friends. Safety is number 1 for us in this home. We’ve been taking care of pets for 10 years both walking, sitting and boarding. Look forward to meeting your babies.

“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 !!”

About: I have 2 dogs: Milo, a 10 year old corgi-dachshund, and Libby, an 8 year old terrier mix. They don’t live with me (they’re at home with my mom) so everyday I miss having them around! I also cared for the sweetest pitbull mix during his senior stage. His name was Brewski and he will forever stay in my heart❤️ I’ve also volunteered for pet outings with the Humane Society where we take a dog out of the shelter on little adventures to help enrich/socialize them. I’ve also fostered puppies and a German-shepherd. 😊 I currently work from home full-time so I will have full flexibility to watch/play with your babies! We can go on walks in the morning, during my lunch hour, and after work. I am available for dog walking, day care, and boarding on weekdays and weekends. I live in a walkable community (next to the beach) where your fur baby and I can go on lots of adventures. We will have plenty of play time and of course, lots of cuddles!

“Megan was so helpful while we were away. She was always on time and our dog really enjoyed his walks with her. I appreciated the photos and updates while I was traveling.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a child. Whenever I meet new dogs, I often get the remark that the dogs are not usually this comfortable with a new person as they are acting. I love dogs and they love me. I have had a vast array of experience with different temperaments of dogs from very docile to dogs with aggression. I have also helped people with dogs with a variety of needs. I often say that dogs are my best friends, and they truly are. I just think that dogs are so special on each one is just as unique as people are. I believe in providing the best care possible for them, ensuring that they have enough water, food, enough space and enough playtime. I really do care for your pets as if they were my own. I also have a pretty fair skill of training dogs. Although I am not a certified trainer, I can absolutely keep up with training needs whenever I am caring for your pets. I have a pretty flexible schedule as a student. So it really is dependent upon the needs of the dog. I can do my homework and studying any time as an online student, so we just figure out what the flow is, and then go with the flow. When I am caring for a dog, I make it a point to always know where they are. If I’m at home, I know they are safe because there’s nothing that they can get hurt with or eat that would harm them. My home is a very pet friendly space. When I’m in someone else’s home, I care for it as if I wear my own. So I clean up after myself and I make it a point to know where all of the things are as far as any supplies for the dog and any needs that I can see that the dog already has when I meet the dog I make sure I ask specifically about those needs. Example: I was asked to care for my friend’s dog for five days and when I first went over to her house to meet him, I noticed that he was shedding quite a bit and so I found out from my friend where the brush was and where the treats were, as well as if there were any allergies that I needed to be aware of. While she was gone, I brushed his fur out for him and relieved him of a ton of hair that was loose, which helped him to feel cooler and better all the way around. And of course, we kept up with the daily walks and giving him plenty of time to sit outside during the day, plenty of water and bathroom breaks as well. This is just one example of how attentive I am when it comes to the dogs needs.

About: Hi!! My name is Mia and I’m a recent astrophysics grad. I’m someone who genuinely loves being around animals and brings a lot of energy, attention, and care into everything I do. I’ve owned and trained German Shorthaired Pointers and Dobermans (so yes… I can absolutely keep up with the chaos), including working with them in hunting shows. High-energy, smart, slightly dramatic dogs? I’m very used to it and honestly love it. I’m naturally very attentive and detail-oriented, which definitely comes through in how I care for pets. I notice the little things (examples: changes in behavior, mood, appetite) and make sure your dog is not just “watched,” but actually cared for and understood. I’m also an EMT with 5 years of experience, so staying calm, responsible, and ready for anything is second nature to me. Personality wise: I’m upbeat, reliable, and very “all in” when it comes to animals. Your dog will get plenty of attention, structure, and affection (and probably be a little spoiled if I’m being honest). Whether they need lots of exercise, consistency with training, or just someone patient and calm, I adjust to what they need. I treat every pet like they’re my own, and I want you to feel completely comfortable and confident leaving them with me 🤍 ✍🏻 Please note: I will have a contract you need to sign prior to me caring for your pet!! ‼️Attention owners‼️ Unfortunately due to my own safety and experience, I will not be able to house sit or care for any of the following breeds: Pitbulls, Cane Corsos, Presas, Doggo Argentino, XL Bullies, Boerboel, bully mixes, pit mixes and Corso mixes. I may not take certain Mastiff breeds due to my apartment. I apologise for any inconvenience and wish you luck on your dog care journey! If you wish for me to care for your cat, please book boarding!! I have a flexible and reliable schedule and am available to help care for your dog every day of the week. Whether you need daily walks, drop-ins, or consistent ongoing care, I’m happy to accommodate your pet’s routine. I’m able to provide morning, afternoon, and evening care depending on your needs, and I prioritize consistency so your dog feels comfortable and secure. If you have a specific schedule in mind, I’m very open to coordinating and making it work for you and your pet. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. I have extensive experience with dogs, including owning and training German Shorthaired Pointers and Dobermans, so I’m very familiar with managing high-energy, intelligent, and strong-willed breeds. This background has given me a strong understanding of dog behavior, body language, and the importance of structure, supervision, and consistency. I always prioritize a safe, controlled environment during walks and care visits, and I’m attentive to details like leash handling, surroundings, and following your instructions exactly. I’m comfortable reinforcing training routines and making sure your dog stays both physically safe and emotionally at ease. You can feel confident knowing your pet is in capable, experienced hands.

“Tori is wonderful! Actively listening, very caring, accommodating and just a joy to be around. Jingo had good times, lots of love and some treats along the way.”

“Svetlana was great with my dog, reliable and flexible! Would highly recommend! Hank’s so much for taking such good care of Bodhi!”

“Leslie is the best dog walker in town! We have been using her for years and she is always so reliable, flexible, and responsible. We have used her for walks and daycare and I would highly recommended her. She sends updates and photos of the walk or stay and tells you how your pup did. She’s very knowledgeable on dogs. Indy loves her and my other dogs did too!”

About: We (my husband, son and me) are a family of pet lovers! We are flexible to provided walks and drop-ins in the areas around Hawthorne/South Bay and LMU/Westchester/LAX. Willing to house sit dogs and cats as well across a wider location radius. Since we live with grandma, 3 dogs, and a two year old we are available for walks, check-ins, house-sitting. For an increased rate, we can offer boarding for a kid and dog friendly pet. We both had many pets growing up and have been dog and cat sitters for 15+ years. For a period of 5-6 years Sarah would regularly house sit for a friend who had a temperamental dog who needed medication and extra care. Lately we have several kitty drop-in clients including giving medication via injection and pill. We are very flexible as George works mostly from home and Sarah doesn’t teach (professor at LMU) everyday. Our experience and love of animals will ensure that your fur baby is well cared for. My husband and I work together to care for dogs and cats. I work at LMU and my husband works at home in Westchester, so we can flexibly accommodate walks and drop-ins near those locations. Also willing to house sit if your pet is kid friendly—willing to travel across a greater radius to house sit. We are dog and cat lovers with lots of experience. We have a 2 year old and 3 dogs at home, so not offering boarding currently unless it’s a great offer. We can take your dogs in a safe, fun walk either with or without other dogs. We can also drop in on or housesit your dog or cat.

About: I've been a Mom of 3 furry dog tails (2 small street dogs and 1 husky) when i was 18yo till 21yo, at the age of 25 I become a Mom for adopted rescue boy of jack russell and rat terrier mix for lovely 4.5 years; during that time occasionally I would take care of my friend Husky at my house, and another friends Cats at their households. I love being around furry friends, play with them, take them on a very very long walks. My schedule is very flexible. I work at coffee shop 6 hours shifts; usually from 8AM till 2PM, rarely from 2PM till 7PM in Playa del Rey. I'm an early morning bird, so waking up around 6AM it's my normal. At doggies household my first priority is to follow the set of rules and guidance from owners. Walks, food at scheduled time. Making sure that pet is comfy, have enough attention and affection.

“Anne’s been walking Milo for a few weeks now and is super reliable. Thanks again Anne - especially lately, I know it’s been a bit warm out for a walk :)”

About: I have taken care of all different kinds of dogs! My family and friends have relied on me to walk, play and feed their pets! I will play with your dog or give your dog belly rubs, whatever you need! I am a teacher and have the summer off. I am currently available Monday-Friday all day! I am also available most weekends for dog sitting! At this time I am not dog sitting in my own home, but I would happy to dog sit at your home! Let me know what your dog needs and when and I will make it happen.

About: I have so much love for animals in general. I’ve had hands-on experience working with animals at River Haven Sanctuary, where I helped with daily care and learned how to be attentive to animals with different needs, including seniors. I’m patient and reliable, with experience mentoring children, which has helped me develop a calm, nurturing approach—especially with puppies and pets who need extra support. I will treat your dog with all the care and love I have to give :) As a student who’s graduating soon, pet care fits into my weekly weekend routine. I’m especially available on Thursdays, Fridays, and weekends. I enjoy building pet care into my schedule and will always make sure each pet gets the care and consistency they need. I follow each pet’s routine closely—feeding, walks, playtime, and rest—so they feel secure and relaxed. I take the time to understand their personalities and needs, giving them plenty of attention, patience, and affection while keeping their environment clean and calm.

“She’s just awesome”
