She was excellent. Showed up on time, gave our dogs extra special treatment and gave them four days of great interaction while we were traveling from out of town. Can not recommend her enough.

Brad has been a fantastic help for our dog walking needs for our golden retriever. He’s always quick to respond, easy to work with, and dependable. Each walk report card comes with multiple photos. I’d recommend him to anyone in the Dayton area looking for a dog walker.

About: Providing care for dogs, cats, ferrets, fish, turtles, and birds since I was a kid. Neighbors, friends, and clients seek me out because I care for their pets like they're my own. I work remote so I have time and flexibility to provide your pets with attention and care. My weekends are normally pretty flexible too. Ready to give all the pets love and snuggles! I am able to follow a schedule and instructions if the client wishes or I can determine appropriate care. I have experience administering some medication.

About: I have worked at two credible boarding/animal daycare facilities. I worked at both of these facilities for one year each. I worked with puppies, senior animals, kittens, large animals, and small animals. The first facility I worked at was connected to a vet clinic where I also gained experience. I worked with animals recovering from surgeries and animals with different emotional behaviors. I have been petsitting for 7 years. I am available to work around my class schedule to petsit and have a flexible schedule to watch your pets and care for them like they are my own! I have a six year old dog who I take for a walk 3-4 times a day when I am home from college. I love him so much and he is like my other half! He’s a jack russel with a lot of energy and a huge personality. When I am working with my clients pets, I hangout with them for the majority of the day and treat them like my own!

About: Back home my family has 2 dogs, a 13 yr old chihuahua spaniel and a 5 year old pit bull. I have experience with dogs of different ages and breeds as well as house training puppies. I work as an aquatics director at a YMCA so I have the freedom to come and go from work for the most part for doggy potty breaks. I love playing with dogs and will play with dogs for hours. Cuddles are a daily thing if that’s why the doggos want. Dogs are and will always be very near and dear to my heart.

About: “I have several years of experience caring for pets, and I currently live with my own cat, Hamza. He is a friendly, calm, and well-behaved indoor cat who is used to being around other animals. I grew up caring for both dogs and cats, so I understand how important it is to provide consistency, love, and proper daily routines. I’m reliable, patient, and always treat every animal as if they are part of my family. Friends and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, and play with their pets. Whether it’s house sitting, drop-in visits, or dog walking, I make sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and well-cared for. Hey My name is Berke. I’m 27 years old, and I currently live in Old North Dayton. My schedule is very flexible because I work from home and manage my own time. This allows me to be available throughout the day for pet care, walks, feedings, playtime, and check-ins. I enjoy spending my free time around animals, so pet care naturally fits into my daily routine I always prioritize safety, trust, and a calm environment when caring for pets. Whether I am in my home or at a client’s home, I make sure the space is clean, secure, and comfortable. I stay attentive to each pet’s needs, follow the owner’s instructions carefully, and maintain open communication. Pets in my care are treated with patience, love, and respect just like family.

About: I love dogs! I take them on walks, day trips, and I do week-long stays. I’ve cared for multiple dogs at once, including a variety of breeds and ages. I have a little special talent of teaching dogs new tricks! Growing up I have always been told I have a genuine bond for all dogs. Whether it’s a fun walk or a relaxing day, I ensure they’re happy and well cared for. As a college student home for the summer, I have plenty of time on my hands to care for your pets! I love spending time with animals and can easily fit pet care into my daily and weekly routine. I'm available for walks, drop-in visits, and house stays ranging from a couple of nights to even a full week. While there are a few weeks I’ll be out of town, I’m happy to work around those dates and be as flexible as possible to meet your needs! When I care for a client’s pets in their home, I treat them with the same love and attention I would as if they were mine. I follow their daily routine closely, including their feeding, walks, play time, or just sitting with them so they feel safe and comforted. I understand that being away from their family can be stressful, so I do my best to make them feel calm, happy, and loved. I also take care of the home with respect and keep everything clean and in order. I truly enjoy bonding with each pet and always keep the owners updated with cute photos and videos, so they know their pets are in good hands.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs. I’ve had at least three to 7 dogs at a time in my home. As well as cats, ducks and bunnies! I have a unique ability to bond quickly with dogs, and animals. I love them. I believe God put them on earth to help to help us make it through the trials and triumphs of life. I believe all dogs are unique and have the own personality, and should be treated as such. And I will treat your dog as though they are my new friend, and hopefully will become my longtime friend. I have had senior dogs, so I am well aware of the extra care that needs to be given to these special dogs. They deserve to be treated with care and respect. I have also trained my dogs in basic commands. I will always abide by your wishes while caring for your baby. And will willing to listen to any concerns that may arise. I am currently a stay-at-home dog mom. So I have mostly open availability at this time. I’m sure this would be a excellent fit for my life!! While caring for other people’s pets, made sure to go to check on the pets many times a day. During that time, I stay and play, love on them, give treats or feed (if it’s time), play some more, and make sure they are properly tired until the next time I come back. I worry about them, honestly, as though they are my own. So I want to make sure they are happy and safe.

About: I am a grad student working toward my M.S.Ed in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and love animals. I grew up with 1 dog and 4 cats! In addition to pet sitting I volunteer at the Humane Society of Greater Dayton where I walk dogs and socialize cats. I have references I would be happy to provide and would treat your animal(s) as my own. I hope you will take the opportunity to book me and let me love on your animals! As a cat owner, I am used to getting up early to feed my cat and being home to feed her for dinner. I have a flexible work schedule and work from home some days so I am able to structure my day around your pet’s needs. I would prioritize the routine that you and your animals are used to following! I respect you and your animal’s space and want you to feel comfortable leaving your pets with me while away. I am always a phone call or message away and happy to send countless updates and photos of your animals!

Experience can vary widely from dog walker to dog walker, but you can view reviews, years of experience, and number of repeat clients when comparing dog walkers available in Santa Clara.
