Dog Walkers in Shaws Flat, CA

“Kenneth is amazing with my pets. My dog takes a while to warm up to new people, but warmed up to Kenneth immediately. Greatest pet sitter ever. I highly recommend this him. He is amazing with dog and cats and is always reliable. Provided great pics with his walks. So happy I found Kenneth to help, when I travel.”

“Emma is so sweet! She arrives on time and is patient and gentle with my two boys. I’ve noticed a significant change since she has started walking them while I’m away at work!”

“As reluctant as I was to allow a stranger to come into my home, I was that much more hesitant to allow a stranger to walk my three dogs, in the end I knew I had no other choice but to hire someone due to my work schedule. While searching I came across Jef’s profile and I decided to go with him in booking dog walking for my three dogs. Jef even came to meet my dogs before he was to begin walking them the following day. From the initial message to the first time meeting, Jef maintained great communication and updated me each day after their walks. Jef definitely has something about him that made my dogs very comfortable around him. He quickly gained their trust and vice versa. Jef is also very persistent and knowledgeable in training dogs and helping to improve any bad leash habits. I will definitely be booking Jef for any future needs and I would definitely recommend him to anyone with pets.”

About: I have owned dogs, horses, chickens and pigs my entire life. Prior to having my twins, I worked at a vet office for three years as a receptionist and vet assistant. While working at the vet office, I pet sat for clients dogs and cats when they went out of town. I also worked at a pet boarding facility before the vet, but at both places I cared for all the animals as if they were my own. I am currently working part-time night shift, I am a mom to my twin daughters that are three years old and my son who is seven months old. My husband is a mobile mechanic and makes his own schedule so if there is a prior commitment that I have my husband can be around for the short time that I am out. I treat every animal and home I pet sit at as if they're my own! I love sharing pictures with the clients to ensure they can feel at ease that they’re pet is being well cared for.

“Thanks so much for walking Loki!”

About: I have over 20 years experience taking care of other people’s “fur babies”. I love them like they are mine. I am very responsible, dependable, observant and able to handle any unexpected situations that might arise. I am self-employed and work part-time so I have a lot of availability. I have the ability (and desire) to give pets quality time and attention. Every pet is unique and their needs are different. Some pets prefer physical connection while others prefer having a ball thrown for them to chase. Like us, pets each have their own love language. I endeavor to “speak” love in the language each pet prefers.

About: Experience with senior animals, large dogs, skittish animals, I have been taking care of animals since I was young and have a passion of animals/ animal care and often foster dogs. I work at FOAC(the animal rescue). I also have experience with medical dogs, including diabetes. I currently am enrolled in Columbia College but it is all online. Therefore I have time to walk dogs multiple times a day, as well as play with them. I make sure the animals get to know and trust me, show them love and attention, make sure animals are well taken care of no matter the kind of job I am doing or who’s animal.

About: Growing up with animals my entire life, I've branched out to caring for other's animals. From dogs, cats, snakes, and aquariums of all sizes, I am familiar with caring for all kinds of animals including those with special needs. I have worked with blind animals, those with complex medication routines, and those that needed physical therapy. I have also assisted in training animals with behavioral issues and prevented damage to homes while per owners are away. I also volunteer for the local FOAC in my free time. I'm a full time animal lover and would love the opportunity to take care of your furry family! I work full time but have the ability to work from home. I am especially available on weekends, evenings, and holidays. Simply book me and I'll make your schedule work for mine! I have stayed in homes for months at a time caring for animals while owners are on vacation. I am sure to be respectful of your privacy, sticking to specified areas, and focusing on my assigned job of caring for your furry family members. I prefer to leave everything clean and untouched after pet sitting, like I was never there. I am also very quiet with hobbies like crocheting and reading, being respectful of any surrounding neighbors.

About: I am a born and raised farm girl. I have taken care of all kinds of animals especially dogs and cats. I love to take them on walks around the neighborhood. I have a lot of experience in general care and would love to meet and care for your fur babies. I am currently a part-time student and work mainly online so I will have plenty of time to be with your pets and spend quality time playing/exercising. I have friendly fur babies here at home that would love to play with yours. I do happen to have one dog who isn't as friendly but he is always crated when other dogs are around so there is no worries in your pets getting hurt here. I assure you that they will get the best care and love here.

About: Of course! Here's a casual, cute, and warm version that includes both dog and cat care: Lover of Furry Friends I’ve been caring for dogs—and now cats—for most of my life. My dad always said pets are family, and I totally agree. I grew up spending weekends at a rescue shelter, getting covered in puppy kisses and cat purrs, and learning how to give love and patience to every little (or big!) furry buddy. Whether it’s wagging tails or purring laps, I’m all about making your pets feel safe, loved, and happy while you’re away. Treating them like my own, with plenty of cuddles, playtime, and maybe a treat or two—because they deserve it! I’m currently working part time so I have more time to be able to care for your fur babies. Plus they help get my daily exercise! ❤️😁 My services for boarding will be taken place at my home. I do not have a huge backyard but I live near a park where I can let the dogs walk around and have a grand time. I do not have any dogs in my home so your pup will get my undivided attention.

“Shawna was great and handled our exuberant giant dog like a pro. Would highly recommend her!”

About: I have always had many pets growing up. Now I am just looking forward to hiking or going for a walk in the neighborhood with a pup. Working remotely gives me a lot of flexibility! I am often working from home. I do travel because I can work remotely so I just ask for as much notice as possible when booking. I am more than happy to show my place to anyone including going over any concerns with my many houseplants. I have a house with a good size yard and fenced in deck

About: Although I don’t have pets of my own, over the past several years I’ve had the chance to care for a wide variety of dogs of all ages and sizes. I live down the street from some dog friendly hiking trails and my backyard is quite large so the energetic pups are always happy. I am accommodating and love the experiences I have meeting each new pet. A highlight was fostering and finding homes for 5 kittens in 2022! I have a relatively flexible schedule and am willing to travel a reasonable distance, message me for further schedule details- most frequently available on weekends I have a keen attention to detail that can keep too curious pups out of trouble. I love to hear special instructions from the owner about what their pets like!

“Did a great job with our dogs!”

About: I’ve had dogs since I was a kid. I currently have a 3 year old beagle named Stan who loves to be outside. I have had several dogs with different energy levels - from a crazy Jack Russell to a super sweet golden retriever. I am very patient and most of my dogs have been rescues. Stan came from an animal testing facility & had never been outside or touched grass when I rescued him. I work remotely from home with a really flexible schedule. I live on 3 acres with my beagle, Stan. I’m very active & love to hike. Stan loves other friendly dogs and would be a great buddy for your dog. We love to snuggle up and takes lots of walks. I do have a crate here at my house if that is needed.

We also have a pool for your dog to take a dip in the summer. They are also welcome inside the home in the cold winter months. Our neighborhood provides a 1 mile loop and we would gladly take your dog for a walk each day

About: I grew up on a ranch, so I have extensive experience with all types of birds, horses, goats, cats, and dogs. I’ve house/pet sit for family and friends over the years. I have one fur baby of my own that stays with my parents when I’m not home. Dogs are the sweetest animals to walk this earth, change my mind. I work three days a week traveling, so I typically have 4 days a week available. Can travel in the Calaveras and Tuolumne county areas. My schedule give me the flexibility to check in with your pet throughout the day. Unfortunately, I don’t offer pet sitting for my house as I live with friends. I’m happy to take care of your pet in the comfort of their own home/ safe space. I am ever vigilant on walks and take into account things like daily temperature when scheduling or planning walks/outings.

“Best experience by far!! Viktoriya was super friendly and she even brought her dog and some treats along (both with my permission) and I swear my dog honestly couldn't have had a better time than this. Highly recommend!!”

About: I've got 23 years of veterinary technician experience as well as petsitting experience. I also worked for an organization that rescues Cocker Spaniels for 3 years. I was the manager and I took care of 25 dogs at a time as well as 2 horses, 2 goats, 2 pigs, 4 roosters, and a feral cat colony. I fed all the animals, cleaned their living quarters, picked up the yards, bathed as well as shave them if needed, nail trims, sanitary clips, administered medications of all types, did basic training with them, went to vet appointments if needed, laundry, and walked them. Being in the veterinary field has been a blessing for many clients whom have hired me to care for their furry babies because I am more attune at things many people may not notice. Clients are very grateful for that knowledge. I also water plants and clean houses and bring in mail for overnight stays. I am currently a stay at home mom with lots of time to spare. I've always juggled pet care and my family with no issues. I follow the instructions the client gives me no matter what. If they want the dog to wear a harness while.out for walks, then that's what I will do. If they don't want the dog left unattended outside even though they have a fenced in yard, then I'll stay out with them for as long as needed. I always do a parameter check to make sure there are no holes in the ground for the dog to have access to escape.
