Dog Walking Rio Oso

About: I have hands-on experience caring for dogs through owning and looking after two of my own. I understand the importance of providing regular exercise, feeding, playtime, and plenty of love and attention. I also volunteered at FieldHaven for five months, where I cared for cats and gained experience meeting the needs of animals in a safe and compassionate environment. I genuinely enjoy connecting with animals and making sure they feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for while their owners are away. I am currently not working so I have a pretty flexible schedule and I am basically free whenever. Walking animals fits perfectly into my routine because I enjoy going on walks myself so why not take a furry friend along with me 🤗. I provide a safe, loving, and comfortable environment for every pet in my care. I follow their usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special instructions. I make sure pets always have fresh water, plenty of attention, and lots of affection. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, so I take the time to help them feel happy and secure.

About: With a lifetime of experience around animals and the last 7 years being dedicated to hands-on pet care, I've decided to put my passion and love for animals into full-time pet sitting. I currently have 4 dogs and 1 cat in the home, most of my pets throughout my life have been rescues. My german shepherd that was rescued 7 years ago really brought out my passion for working with animals. I have experience with a range of breeds, ages, sizes, personalities, high-maintenance care, medical care, you name it! I'm not just a dog or cat person, I'm an animal lover. The pets we bring into our homes are family, and I strive to make sure all feel comfortable and content. I promise to provide a safe, fun, and loving environment for your furry (or scaly, feathery, hairless) friends. I’m currently dedicating myself to pet sitting full-time so I have plenty of time to spend with your loved ones! I’m available 7 days a week, anytime you need—day or night! Your pets needs and wellbeing is top priority. I will always ensure basic needs are met first such as food, water, medication, bathroom breaks, etc. Boundaries are very important to me and I will make sure to never cross them, please make me aware of any and all!

About: I have had a variety of animals always in my life. I have cared for dogs, cats, birds, reptiles, fish and rodents. (All of which I've had at some point) I have also worked for a rescue charity for 7+ years which resulted in having learned basic and emergency care, as well as administration of medication. I am retired and looking to fill my time with love and cuddles. I have always enjoyed caring for the variety of animals I have and have had. I love learning all the cute special quirks and loves of every animal I interact with. I am very respectful of other people's space and items - my focus is on the animals in my charge. I can feed, walk, play and generally be a companion to any animal. I also respect the home and treat it even better than my own, ensuring that I leave the home as I found it.

About: I love dogs and I have one of my own and have tried and true places on where to take them for walks. I can provide both structure and unstructured (sniff focused and fun) walks I am very punctual. Integrity is one of the most important things to me and you need someone you can trust with your dog. I currently work in social work and work Rover to fund travel and adventure 🩷 currently, I am doing rover as a side hustle from my 9-5 to fund a life of travel and adventure. I work on a hybrid schedule with a lot of flexibility I keep my animals on a feeding schedule and provide them a lot of stimulation and care. My dogs well being and life is one of my top priorities

About: I have an understanding of dog psychology and act calm under pressure. Previously, I was the dog trainer at Petsmart for a year and a half. I love dogs very much and care for their success! My main concern is the dog's health, which is why walking them is extremely important. Giving dog's additional exercise other than playing in the back yard is key to releasing their excess energy. Walks also provide new areas to explore which will give them an opportunity to use their smellers and analyze the world. You will be surprised at how tuckered out they become! If you wanted to have your dog work on socialization and make new dog friends, I am more than willing to help your fur baby improve in this area. I am available Tuesday through Saturday mornings for a walk. There is a possibility of opening a window of availability in the afternoons. Let’s talk! I would be most comfortable caring for your dogs in your home. Their environment is key to easing the stress of your absence in their daily routine.

About: I grew up here in Northern California with many different loyal pet dogs. After high school I joined the Army and got out of active duty in 2017. Long story short I moved to Alaska with my pet dog from Yuba City where I learned to be a dog musher and she learned to be sled dog. I’ve worked for various different high level sled dog kennels, thousands of different dogs, thousands of hours with dogs, thousands of miles with dogs, and even spent a year working at an Athletic & Longevity Canine Research Facility under the mentorship of some of best veterinarians and scientists. My knowledge and experience in general canine medical care, psychology, and training is advanced. I currently work from home & have a flexible schedule. I open to the special needs & care of your beloved pet from all ages. Each pet is individually unique when it comes to specific pet care, so I will work diligently with owners to best understand their pet. I have 1 spayed female 8 y/o Shepherd/Husky mix who is well tempered, a lead sled dog, well socialized to keep your pet company(friendly with both dogs & cats). I have a dog door that leads to a fenced in backyard. Regularly scheduled feeding, walks, & bathroom breaks.

“My dog Gemma was very happy to see Jennifer again. As usual, Jennifer communicated about her time with my dog very thoroughly and kept an eye out for a medical concern I had mentioned to her. My dog loves spending time with her!”

About: Hello there! My name is Josh, and I’m an enthusiastic dog caretaker who would love the chance to take care of your dog. At first glance, you might be unsure if this guy who looks like a pirate can reliably care for your furry friend. Rest assured, I am dedicated to meeting your dog’s needs in a safe and fun environment. I will ensure that your dog feels loved and happy. I prioritize open communication with pet owners to build trust. A little background about me: I currently have a rare brain tumor that makes it difficult for me to hold a regular job. The tumor is stable and only affects my vision in my left eye. I hope that with treatment, I will soon overcome this health challenge so I can return to school to become an MRI technician. In the meantime, I’m happy to work with Rover to save up for that goal. Taking care of your pets would mean a lot to me and would help me progress toward my aspirations. I promise to go above and beyond in my service to show my appreciation. I also have a well-behaved Belgian Malinois named Nezuko, who gets along with most dogs (check out the pictures) she really likes small dogs as she grew up with a Maltese and learned to play gentle with them, and she still loves her bigs dogs as her best friend is a massive Cane Corso who was the genlte giant that taught her how to play when she was growing up. I do Meet ups ar Natomas Meadows Park and the have dogs meet in an open and safe environment. When sitting they will have have beds to lay on, chicken feet or bones to chew on and relax and we will be watching anime most likely all day with walks and park visits in between. As I stated I am disabled so I consider this my full time job and I do my best to make sure your dogs feel cared for while they are stay with me. I am somewhat new to Rover but I've pet sitted alot over the years so feel free to ask any questions (Note: if there is a day I am not available please send me a message. Especially if I've worked with your dog before and I'll try and work something out) Thank you for reading, and I hope to meet you and your furry friend soon! I am on permanent disability so i am available at all times. I am still very active and I walk my own dog 3-4 miles a day. I have a huge park across the street that I take my dog to every day. If your dog is not good off-leash, I have a 50 ft leash they can use if they have a compatible vest. My dog is very friendly and loves playing with other dogs. She does get very excited when she sees new dogs and people, but I've never seen her be aggressive with any dog or person.

About: Hi! My name is Graysen and I’m a Sacramento native living in the North Sacramento area. I’ve had pets my whole life and have experience with animals with anxiety and medication needs. I’ve cared for everything from puppies to senior dogs and can handle a range of active levels. Animals have always been part of the family and I love getting to know their different personalities and quirks. I’m an active person and would love to take your dog out on walks, or we can be couch potatoes too! I own a business and have a flexible work schedule, so I would love to do something to fill up some of the time I have at home. I currently can move things around to accommodate morning, afternoon, or evening bookings, so just let me know what you need! I cannot currently offer services at home unfortunately due to the animals I already have. However I can definitely do house visits, walks, or overnight stays at your place. I’d love to know your dogs schedule for feeding, walks, etc so I can be consistent with your animal’s needs!
