Dog Walking Point West

“Alex and Lune become best friends very quickly. She was super attentive to his needs and communicated very well during her visit. She sent me so many pictures to show how happy Lune was during his walk and puzzle time. So thankful to have found a very kind person to take care of our sweet boy.”

About: I have owned dogs most of my life from a Doberman pinscher to a chowchow to an Australian cattle dog and a couple cats throughout my life. I love animals! I no longer have our latest family Australian cattle dog who was with us for 17 years and miss being around animals. I am an independent contractor in real estate so I can set my own hours. I’m very flexible! I love to get out and walk a lot for exercise for myself as well! I give them lots of love and attention that they need. Play with them and make sure they’re happy, exercised, and well fed at their eating time

“Ash has walked my Aussie three times now. Poppy always returns smiling and relaxed. Ash is quickly responsive to a request and pleasingly punctual. I recommend her for dog walking without reservation.”

About: My family has always been big on rescuing animals and finding them a forever home, so I’ve been blessed with growing up with dogs, cats and birds of many kinds . I love animals and have also fostered/rescued all sorts, including some that required special needs or senior care. I have my own consulting business and manage my hours. I have a pretty good work-life balance and available time to play and take care of your fur babies ❤️ I have a fenced dog park close to my home, along with trails and other parks nearby to take them for fun walks. I’m open for meet and greets to build trust and guarantee that I can meet your pet’s needs!

About: With an energetic pup of my own, I am no stranger to the needs of fur babies. Consistency is key when it comes to pet care and training. I will make sure your pup(s) get plenty of exercise with a walk around your local neighborhood. Each pet is unique and I will be certain to cater to your individual pet’s needs. But no matter what, I will be certain that each pet gets the same loving care as if they were one of my own. I am currently very flexible in my schedule so I can offer walks or drop ins for potty breaks and daily enrichment or house sitting for more comprehensive care for your pet when you’re away! I would love to check on your fur baby if you're busy so they don't get lonely! Personally, I have my own rambunctious pup named Lila who loves treats, walks, and attention. I would treat your dog like my own in care and affection!

About: I loved animals since I was young and have experience caring and sitting for them, whether it be dogs or cats. I have experience dog and cat sitting for my friends and family for years, and believe every animal should get the love and respect they deserve! As a dog mom to my own Maltipoo, Mochi, I treat every pet in my care with the same love, attention, and patience as I would my own :) * I have hands on experience administering insulin injections for diabetic cats. I have experience pet sitting for my friend's cat, Kiwi, such as changing her food and water bowls, cleaning out the litter box, and making sure to follow vet specific medication and insulin routines. * I have experience walking dogs of all breeds, from small pups to larger, stronger breeds. I make sure collar and leashes are secure before walking, and I am attentive to them during and after walks. * I ensure to follow feeding schedules, dietary restrictions, and household rules to keep your pet's routine consistent! I make sure to clean and change water and food bowls, clean up messes in the backyard and/or litter boxes, engage in lots of play times, and have experience giving dog baths when requested. * I pay close attention to each pet's body language, distinct personalities, and individual energy levels to make sure your pet feels safe and comfortable. I also make sure to give speedy updates to owners with pictures and messages :) I currently have open and flexible availability and will do my best to adjust to your availability and schedule :) From mid-day walks to strict feeding times, I would be able to provide tailored pet care times. Safety and peace of mind are my top priorities. When caring for animals, I want to make sure they feel secured and well loved by double checking harnesses and collars before every walk and stay fully aware of our surroundings, adjusting my handling depending on your dog's size and energy. I also make sure to bring drinking water if requested. I also make sure all doors, gates, and windows are locked during visits so pets stay safe indoors, along with regular updates and photos during visits and/or walks!

About: I have taken care of animals for almost 7 years! I am constantly around animals, and I love learning the needs and wants for each dog and/or cat. Every animal has their own little personality that makes them the best, and I want to learn what your animals need in order for them to thrive in my care. I am comfortable around all dog/cat breeds, and have experience taking care of a range of breeds. When I come to walk, spend time with, and take care of your animals, they are my first priority, and I will do everything in my power to make sure they feel loved and cared for. I understand that every dog or cat needs different things, and I am more than willing to adapt to meet you and your pet where you need me! I have a dog and cat of my own- a rescue Labradoodle named Beau, and a short-haired tabby named Kona! They mean the world to me, and I will treat your animal with the love and respect that I treat my own animal babies with! Skills: I have ample experience in treating dogs who require medication, as well as senior dogs who need some extra care and attention to ensure comfortability and happiness. I am happy to lightly groom your pet if needed. For any medical accomodations, just give me a heads up so that I can best take care of your doggie! I have had almost a lifetime of taking care of cats, and am not a stranger to the many different and cooky personalities they can have. I have experience with a range of kitties who vary from requiring a little more space to get comfortable, as well cats who are super extroverted and friendly from the get-go. I have experience in brushing and maintaining both short-haired and long-haired cats, nail clipping, litter box maintenance, teeth brushing, ear cleaning, giving oral medication, etc. I am currently working part-time, but I have a lot of flexibility and work mostly mornings and early afternoons. I am also a college student with a very accommodating schedule! I have a lot of free time during the days and evenings, so I am virtually always able to come check-in and spend time with your fur baby! I have 5+ years of experience in housesitting, so navigating new environments in nothing new to me. Whatever your dog/cat needs, I am willing and able. Cleaning up after animal accidents/tidying up after playtime are things that I love to do to ensure that you and your animal feel comfortable in your home!

“We feel like our dog is in great hands whenever booking Michelle. Very communicative before and during the process.”

“Since going back to the office part-time it's been such a relief to have Danielle there for my two big shepherds. She's completely reliable and always keeps me in the loop about her schedule. Top marks!”

Brett G.

“Stacey put my anxious pup at ease. We had a very nice introductory walk. Highly recommended.”

Robert B.

“Amina was available on short notice to walk my dog, took her to a park and let her chase squirrels which was very helpful while I was at work. She provided photos and updates every day. If I was local I would use her again!”

Michelle G.

“We felt very comfortable with Marina taking our lil' Bruno on a walk. It's clear that she loves dogs! Looking forward to more walks, and some boarding days too! Thank you!”

About: I’ve been around pets my entire life, and I truly believe they’re one of the best parts of the world. I was a dog owner for over 10 years, and after losing my sweet girl to cancer, I really missed having furry friends around. That experience reminded me just how much joy and companionship pets bring into our lives. From dogs and cats to fish and hamsters, caring for animals has always been a big part of my life. I’m a family guy with a comfortable home and a safe, secure environment where your pet can feel relaxed, loved, and right at home. I understand how stressful it can be to leave your furry family member with someone else. My goal is to give you peace of mind while making sure your pet gets plenty of attention, affection, exercise, and care. Whether your companion needs walks, drop-in visits, sitting, boarding, or simply some extra love and attention, I’m happy to help. I’ll treat your pet like part of my own family and make their safety, comfort, and happiness my top priorities. I look forward to meeting you and your four-legged family member! 🐾❤️ I work part-time in the evenings and am available during the day to spend time with and care for your pets. While I’m at work, my wife and daughter are home and will be there to care for them. Your pets will always have someone at home with them, so they won’t be left alone. You can have peace of mind knowing your pets will receive care, attention, and companionship around the clock. I have a good-sized, secure backyard where dogs can safely enjoy some outdoor time, as well as a public walking path right behind my house for those who enjoy stretching their legs and getting some exercise. I love taking dogs for walks—it’s a great way for them to get fresh air, exercise, and enrichment while keeping them happy and comfortable. I always make sure pets are supervised, cared for, and treated like part of the family while they’re in my home.

About: As an educator with a bachelor's degree in Child and Adolescent Development, caregiving, patience, and responsibility are a huge part of who I am. I'm dependable, attentive, and comfortable pet sitting, feeding, walking, playing with pets, following detailed routines, and providing plenty of companionship and affection. I'm also completely comfortable with the less glamorous parts of pet care, including cleaning up poop and other messes, because I know that's simply part of keeping animals happy, healthy, and comfortable. I've had many pets of my own over the years, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can genuinely trust to care for your pet and your home while you're away. While I'm not able to have a pet of my own right now, I would love the opportunity to give that same care, attention, and affection to yours. I look forward to getting to know your pet, making them feel comfortable and loved, and caring for them as if they were my own. 🐾 My schedule allows me to provide pet care on weekends and during times when I'm not working. I'm available for drop-in visits, walks, feeding, playtime, and pet sitting, and I do my best to work with each pet owner's routine and scheduling needs. I understand how important consistency is for pets, especially when their owners are away, so I make sure they receive plenty of attention, care, and companionship. I take caring for someone's pet and being trusted in their home seriously. I carefully follow all instructions provided by the owner, including feeding schedules, walking routines, household rules, and any special preferences their pet may have. I pay close attention to doors, gates, leashes, and the pet's surroundings to help keep them safe and secure. I also make sure to clean up after pets and leave the home tidy, because I believe respecting someone's home is just as important as providing loving and dependable care for their pet.

About: Since I was young I have always been surrounded by dogs. From puppies to seniors. Since I was the oldest of the family, the responsibility to care for the furry friends was mine. Daily. I have my own dog. She is a husky mix named Sarabi. I adopted her when I moved out of my parents home and had her since college. I currently live in a two bedroom duplex with my partner. There is a yard as well. The park is within walking distance and some local shops nearby are dog friendly.

About: As a dog trainer, I have the opportunity to help people build deeper relationships, communicate more effectively, and have more fun with their dogs. It’s a privilege to bring joy to my clients by strengthening the bond they share with their companions. My goal in training is to develop balanced, confident dogs. I believe a dog that understands what’s expected of them, and what they can expect from the world around them, is a dog that can move through life with confidence, security, and joy. I am a professional dog trainer so my full day is dedicated and devoted to the animals in my care. I often enjoy early morning walks at the river with my off leash pack, then I work and train dogs through the day. 1) Safety First: animal welfare is the #1 priority, full stop. 2) Relationship Second: training does not being until trust is built between animal and handler. This is very important - I will never push the animal faster than they are ready to move or faster than the trust and relationship will support. 3) Goals Third: after we ensure safety and build a trusting relationship, we can prioritize the client’s goals for training. Training is done through positive incentive based learning following science-backed principles of learning theory.

About: I've had cats and dogs my entire life, and volunteered at the Bradshaw Animal Shelter for a year after college. I've fostered kittens and a senior cat with medical issues, and cared for many older pets over my life. I once house sit for a family with rabbits so I have a little bit of familiarity with them. I have house sit for friends with a standard poodle and a mini doodle, including giving the standard poodle his daily medication and taking them both for twice daily trips to the park. I have also checked in on my parents' two dogs and 5+ cats to feed them, let them out for potty breaks, play with them, and give them medication. My sweet orange tabby got cancer a few years ago and I fed him three times a day through a feeding tube and administered his medication as well. I work some evenings, so I am free most of the day to care for your furry friends. I take care of my own senior kitty in the mornings, after my evening shifts, and during any free days. I have pet sat for friends and family before, including giving medication and two daily walks. I will follow all instructions to the letter and ensure your pet feels right at home.

“Oreo and I so appreciate Amanda and Hector’s help during these beginning weeks of the new school year! I know Oreo looks forward to going on his lunch potty breaks with Hector where he can sniff to his heart’s content. 🐕 💜 🥰 We truly appreciate Hector’s flexibility when he comes a bit earlier some days due to the hotter weather or Oreo’s needs. We will definitely be requesting Amanda & Hector again!”

About: I grew up with a black Labrador retriever, Benita, we had her for sixteen years. Growing up some of our favorite activities were going on long walks to the beach. In recent years, I have taken care of my friends dogs Archie and baby while they’ve been on vacation and have also lived with two cats. I work from home so I have a fairly flexible schedule. I am available mid day to go on walks and can be accommodating to your pets needs for shorter or longer walks. I live with a cat so my home is set up for cats. I have a litter box and non toxic plants in the home

About: I grew up in a family where every house had a dog, so being around them was just part of life. I helped feed them, walk them, and train them from the time I was a kid. Over the years, I picked up on their moods and needs without even thinking about it. It wasn’t just about taking care of dog it was just what we did, and it taught me a lot about responsibility, patience, and how to really connect with animals. I currently have open availability due to taking a break from school at the moment. Right now I have all the time for pet care. I care for pets by keeping their routine consistent, giving them lots of attention, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable. With experience from my own cats and growing up around dogs, I’ve learned to read their needs and treat them like family.
