Dog Walking San Marino

About: I'm the go-to sitter for all our family and friends. I've had two senior dogs and have raised puppies as well. I've helped train neglected rescues and volunteer at the local shelter. We hand make a variety of human grade treats from home. I primarily work from home, can provide 2x daily walks in addition to regular potty breaks and multiple outings weekly (parks, pet stores, trails etc) We have a fenced yard, and a friendly host pup. I have two XL Gunner kennels in case crating is a part of your pup's routine or if it became unexpectedly necessary.

“I have two big fun dogs that require attention on two different energy levels and the right person to keep them happy. Bobby was great, he got along with both dogs immediately and had no issues dealing with both energy levels. They always looked forward to his visits. I found Bobby to be reliable and flexible depending on my schedule. He communicates well. I won"t hesitate to call him again. Thanks Bobby!”

About: Your dog will be treated just like my own! :) I’m reliable, available, and love dogs. I promise to give your dog a great time. Just a college student on summer break wanting to walk dogs! I have too much free time than I know what to do with honestly… My dog is very loved and spoiled in my home. I try to give him lots of attention and only feed him the most nutritious foods.

“Emily has walked our dog Otis many times now and we couldn’t recommend her more! She’s super reliable, very responsive, and has come through on very short notice for us many times now.”

About: I have worked with high-energy and reactive dogs, and I have experience in kennel facilities. I have seven years of pet-sitting experience, and I completed extensive training in positive reinforcement and least-aversive methods for reactive and sensitive dogs while working with my own dog. Working in a dog grooming environment made me savvy at spotting health issues, including problems with joints, skin, eyes, and mouths, and if I notice anything unusual, I alert the owner right away. I also have extensive experience caring for cats, from young kittens to older cats with achy joints, and I respect their boundaries and monitor their health. I am fully available on Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday for drop-in visits, dog walking, and house-sitting, including for dogs and cats. I have no availability outside of those days. I approach pet sitting the way a defensive driver approaches the road. I focus not only on your pets but also on the environment around them. I scan for potential hazards and address them proactively to keep your beloved pets safe and well cared for. At home, my number one rule is to never leave your pet unattended or unsupervised with items such as toys, treat bags, or household items. For walks, I make sure the leash or harness is clipped correctly, and I constantly scan the environment. I never allow leash greetings with unfamiliar dogs, and I don't let dogs eat things off the ground. I always avoid or U-turn away from potential triggers.

About: Howdy! I absolutely adore dogs and have been around them my entire life! I started to help care for dogs around 2009/2010 when my family adopted a sweet little Corgi from the pound (her name was Twinkie). As for our current pets, my wife and I recently said goodbye to our first baby, Bucky, a Rottweiler-Shepherd mix. We rescued him from a shelter in Mexico and had six beautiful years together. Bucky gave us fantastic experience with a larger dog. During our time with Bucky, we brought in two more pups into our household, Goosey and Franky - two pugs we got as puppies. So we are also VERY familiar with puppy care and strict feeding/bathroom schedules. We have an enclosed side yard, and are more than happy on giving your pet all the exercise they need. We live very close (2 blocks away) to ACCESS Emergency Vet here in Pasadena so we are also prepared for any emergency. Rest assured, your pup will be in very good hands. If you have any questions at all feel free to send me a message! We are looking forward to meeting you :) My wife and I both work from home full-time, so it is guaranteed at least one of us will be home with your pup at any given moment! We have an enclosed side yard, can administer oral medication if needed, have plenty of room inside for your pup to play, and we welcome them on the couch or bed if they are comfortable with that :)

About: I've had my own dogs and cats for most of my life ranging from easy going to skittish and temperamental. I've been a go to pet carer for family, friends, and for hire since I was a teenager. I have experience with pets with complex dietary needs, medication regiments, very shy animals who don't deal well with being apart from their families, and high energy critters who need lots of stimulation. I treat them all with the patience and kindness they deserve while they are apart from their owners. I'm not living with a pet for the first time in a long time and miss I am working part time, which leaves me very flexible to care for your pets on your schedule as needed for drop in care or longer stays with your pet in their own home including nights, weekends, and overnights. I have a spacious hatchback that I can use to transport your pets. I cannot care for pets in my own home due to a highly allergic roommate, but I can fetch pets and take them wherever they need to be.

“I had a wonderful experience with Jacquelyn. She was responsive and friendly in all our communication. She arrived at my home on time and sent me plenty of pictures of my dog during their walk. I would definitely recommend Jacquelyn and would hire her again in the future!”

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was a child. I have experience with senior dogs and puppies. I also have fostered dogs in the past. I am a full-time, online student studying architecture. I am able to do multiple walks a day, give attention, play and take lots of naps! I strive to give the most love and attention to all creatures. I have a patio for dogs to sunbathe in. A lot of grass area in our yard and also in sidewalks for potty breaks and long walks.

About: I have two ginger cats adopted since they just born in wild, raised them from smaller than my palm to now adorable adults, they get alone well with all animals. I’m sensitive at details, could easily feel the emotions or sickness of a cat. I’m currently working as part-times, and I love stay at home that have a lot of time playing with you cats ;) My off day routine is cleaning also going to parks fishing. My apartment are clean and neat, has a sunshine roof loft that gives cats or dogs enough sun and activities. And I recently had a 2nd bed room could exclusive for your pet. Each one will has their own potty and exclusive food on your request. One of my cat is like a golden retriever, love to play and cuddle with all animals, super chill even he got hit by other cats ;)

“Lauriane was able to accommodate a last minute change in my schedule (for the second time) and take Deebo for an hour walk/run. He loved it and she's great with him. He gets so excited to see her and doesn't want her to leave when the walk is done. Highly recommend her!”

About: I have taken care of dogs from 5 lbs up to 92 lbs. All dogs have big hearts! I currently have a senior special needs dog, so being attentive is natural. I will always ask for allergies or special needs your pet may have. I am currently working from home, so I will have plenty of time to play with your pups! I am currently available most days a week. I am experienced in senior dogs with special needs.I board one pup at a time. Can provide walks or play time in large yard.

About: Working as a teacher and pet sitter have taught me many of the same skills: patience, communication, responsibility, and genuine care. I’ve traveled across the U.S. to pet sit for both cats and dogs, and I enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality and routine. I’m attentive to owners’ instructions and take their trust seriously. Whether it’s keeping up with a feeding schedule, making sure a dog gets plenty of exercise, or giving a shy cat some extra space and patience, I do my best to make pets feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I’m also respectful of your home and always aim to leave a place as clean—or cleaner—than I found it. Most importantly, I treat every pet as an individual and want both you and your pet to feel comfortable and confident while you’re away. I currently work as a substitute teacher, which gives me a very flexible schedule. I have plenty of time before and after work to provide attentive care, and I’m generally able to adjust my schedule around a pet’s needs. I live a calm lifestyle and enjoy spending time at home, so pets get plenty of attention, companionship, and care throughout the day. I have a safe, comfortable home with a backyard where pets can get some fresh air and space to explore. I also live right next to a park with a designated pet area and plenty of greenery, which makes it easy to provide regular walks and outdoor time. I want pets in my care to feel comfortable and at home, while also following their owner’s routines, instructions, and preferences.

“Chris is very attentive to the details of our Oliver. She got him excited to play Tug and take a good walk. Oliver is a 8 year old boy who will welcome Chris for all of his needs.. Highly recommend Chris!”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments since I was ten years old. Friends , neighbors and family have always trusted me to walk, feed, and look after their pets. Today, I actively volunteer at a local animal shelter, where I handle a wide variety of dogs and their individual walking routines. Whether your pup needs a high energy jog, a calm neighborhood stroll, or a specialized care, I bring years of hands-on experience and a genuine love for animals to every walk. I’m currently working full time, my availability is limited to Fridays and weekend for walks, jogs, or leisurely strolls tailored to your dog’s preferred pace. When caring for pets in a client’s home, my priority is keeping their environment calm, familiar, and secure. I start by doing a detailed walk through during a meet-and-greet to learn their exact feeding schedule, walk routes, behavioral quirks, and emergency contacts. During drop in visits, I stick strictly to their routine; fresh water, precise meals, exercise, and plenty of focused attention. I also treat the home with complete respect. Locking up properly, cleaning food bowls, wiping muddy paws, and leaving the space exactly as I found it. I send photo updates and notes so the owners always have total peace of mind.
