Dog Walking Sierra Madre

“Michelle was great with my dog, I could really tell that she is a dog person and is knowledgeable about the care and maintenance of dogs. She is conscientious, caring and dependable.”

Rebeca F.

About: I love dogs… of all kinds! That’s an understatement. My boy is Sailor, the Siberian Husky you see in my profile. The other two dogs—Bokee & Penny—are my friend’s dogs that I dog-sit for whenever I’m needed. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, and I’m comfortable with any breed. Your furry friend will love hanging out with Auntie Tamara. I work for myself so I’ll have plenty of time for your fur babies. From feeding to walking to bathing to chilling, your pup and I will be the best of friends. In terms of my house, I have a yard with high walls so Sailor doesn’t even try to go anywhere unless it’s with me. When taking care of my friend’s dogs, they entrust me with their house key so I can come over and watch over the pups (even when they’re older, they’re always puppies in my eyes). When you ask me to dog-sit for you in your home, you can trust me to treat your space with the utmost respect. Same goes for the fur babies. They’re always in good hands with Auntie Tamara.

About: Have had cats and dogs my entire life and have ample experience walking, training and overall taking care of pets keeping them active and healthy. I have afternoon and mid-day available for walking can also fit in some early morning routes. Mainly do this part time and love animals more specifically dogs so it’s a dream to decompress and be around my furry friends. I more specifically focus on dog walking and making sure the dogs walking and getting some exercise and get a change of scenery. This way both the dog and I can have a bit of exercise and bonding experience.

About: As a former owner of a golden retriever that I've trained myself, I have firsthand experience with the needs and joys of dog ownership. I frequently train my sister’s Carolina dog, which has deepened my understanding of diverse dog behaviors and training techniques. As a runner, I genuinely enjoy walking and running with a variety of dogs, ensuring they get the exercise and engagement they need. This passion for canine care has inspired me to offer my services as a dog-sitter and walker. I am committed to providing a safe, nurturing, and fun environment for your furry friends, making sure they receive the attention and activity they deserve while you’re away. I also do headbutts with cats. I currently work at a co-working space, running a company and I've started a YouTube channel. I work on my own schedule, so I have time to play with and walk/run dogs! I also have had experience taking care of cats. I prioritize maintaining the dog's routine and comfort in their familiar surroundings. Before each visit, I carefully review their instructions regarding feeding schedules, medication administration (if needed), exercise needs, and any specific behavioral considerations. During my visits, I will focus on providing engaging playtime, ensuring sufficient exercise (walks, playtime in the yard, etc.), and plenty of attention and affection. I'll maintain cleanliness by promptly cleaning up any accidents and ensuring the space remains tidy. My goal is to provide consistent, reliable care that allows the dog to feel safe and happy while you are away

About: I've taken care of animals in my community for over 7 years. I have ample experience taking care of dogs, cat, and rabbits of all ages and backgrounds. Rest assured I will be a gentle and responsible sitter to your furry friends! I have an 8 year old lop rabbit myself, and welcome the extra company in my day to day. NOTE: Please have up to date records of core vaccinations (namely rabies) available. Outdoor or Indoor/Outdoor hybrid cats and dogs will ideally be on flea/parasite preventatives regardless of services provided. If that is not the case just let me know so I can be aware! If cats are indoor ONLY this can be an exception. Rabbits will ideally be vaccinated against RHDV2 but if they are not, please inform me. Please also include existing or past diseases (coccidia, e. cuniculi, etc...) or any abnormal symptoms (large poops, jelly like substance in their poops, head tilt, etc....) I have a rabbit at home and they are much more vulnerable to diseases, so I have to prioritize her health! Thanks for understanding. I am currently in-between jobs and have ample time to accommodate to your pet's needs. I am flexible, so just let me know what you need! I am committed to transparency and will take any precautions that you deem necessary to keep your pet and your home safe. I do not board animals in my home as I have a rabbit and am unwilling to expose her to other animals due to the risks, but am more than happy to travel!

About: We are a husband-and-wife team who have lived with and loved dogs for over 20 years. This is not a high-volume job for us; we do this for the joy of being around animals and to stay active. Because we have a 14-year-old Standard Poodle of our own, we are very patient and observant with every pet we meet. We only take on a few dogs at a time so we can provide focused, high-quality care. My husband loves his morning walks and looks forward to keeping your dog company and getting them some fresh air. Since we already provide specialized care for our senior dog at home, we prefer to walk dogs that are generally healthy and mobile. While we are non-native English speakers, my wife is very comfortable using translation apps and earbuds to communicate clearly in person. Our daughter also helps us manage the app and scheduling to make sure everything goes smoothly. We are very dependable and will treat your pet like a member of our family. We are retired, so our schedule is very flexible and revolves around staying active and caring for our own dog. Paul enjoys a consistent morning walk and would love to have your pet join him for some fresh air and exercise to start the day. Because we only take on a few clients at a time, we can easily work around your specific timing needs for drop-offs, visits, or walks. Since we are home most of the time, your pet will rarely be left alone and will receive plenty of companionship throughout the day. Safety is our top priority. We live in a quiet residential area in West Hills with a secure, fenced yard where dogs can safely stretch their legs. We are very experienced with home maintenance and safety, recently completing a full home renovation, so we are mindful of keeping a clean and hazard-free environment. Whether in our home or yours, we are patient and observant caretakers. We understand the importance of following your specific instructions for feeding and routine to keep your dog feeling comfortable and secure.

“Sylvia is the best ☺️👍”

About: Thanks for stopping by! Choosing the right sitter is a big decision, and I truly appreciate you considering me. Being a Rover sitter has been one of my most rewarding experiences. I genuinely love getting to know each pup’s unique personality and treating them like my very own. I can’t wait to meet your pups! What I'll provide: 📸 Lots of updates - I will provide lots of photos/videos during their stay so you have complete peace of mind while you're away. I often take videos of walks and when they're being cute or silly. 🌟 1-1 attention - I typically only host pups from one family at a time. There are no kids or other pets in my home so that means your pups get all the belly rubs, all the walks, and all the couch space in a calm environment. ⏱️ Consistency - I have a flexible work from home schedule so I can follow your care routine and instructions to the letter, including administering oral medication. 🌳 Fun adventures - This is what makes the stay special! Each pup likes to have fun in their own way. 🔹 For social pups, we're lucky enough to live across the street from the dog park so we can go multiple times day and meet new friends. 🔸 For the athletes we'll play fetch at the field. 🔹 For nature lovers we can go on a waterfall hike. 🔸 Whether it’s a stroll to see the neighborhood peacocks, a trip to the local cafe, or just a quiet day of indoor play, I tailor the adventures to what your dog loves most. 🏡 Clean and safe home - We keep a clean home and your pups can explore the whole space. They can also go on the couch or bed if they're allowed. Note: I always prioritize your pups' comfort. If I ever consider taking on another guest during your stay, I will always ask for your explicit consent first! I work from home 4 days a week (sometimes everyday), so weekdays are easy for me. I don’t have many meetings and I have a lot of flexibility in when I do my work. I keep a clean and clutter free home. I live in a single story triplex. The place isn’t too big so I can have eyes on your pets most times. My neighbors don’t have any pets. There’s a dog park across the street if your pet is good with other dogs, otherwise it’s a nice place for a walk!

About: I have had a dog, cat, fish, bird or rabbit all my life. I housesit for many family and friends. Animals make me happy and smile. I am presently working a flexible schedule so I can schedule walks, or take care of your animals at your home where they are comfortable. I have two cats so I cannot board. I can get references if needed. What better place then to keep your precious animals in your home.

“Haijin and Victor are AMAZING to work with. I’m always at ease when they walk and care for Tofu. For being an anxious pup, he’s been so comfortable with them from the start. I love that they are always on top of communication and you can tell they have a lot of experience working with dogs. I’m very grateful for them!”

“Delia is the most reliable and thoughtful person. She took great and loving care of my two doggie angels. I could not recommend her more highly.”

Jeff M.

“If your looking for someone to handle big dogs, marks your guy. He was very communicative and informative. He even provided treats for my dog.”

Roxana W.

“Eric is fantastic with my dog, Dexter! He comes by a few times per week mid-day to walk and play with Dexter while I'm at work, and sends me photos and videos of Dexter enjoying his visit. At my request, Eric gives Dexter his daily favorite green treat and wipes his paws after his walks. Communication is quick and easy, and Eric is very trustworthy entering my home and leaving it all locked up once each visit is complete. I'd definitely recommend Eric for any service he provides on Rover. Thanks Eric!! -Ryan”

“Cristina took great care of my senior pup! She is extremely reliable, communicates well, and punctual. During my time away, I felt assured about everything. 💖🙂”

About: I’ve had my first pet since I was 8 and I’ve loved animals ever since I could remember. I had my first dog walking job in my early 20s when I was in college and my first dog bestfriend was a Shiba Inu. I literally loved him like he was my own. I took him everywhere and anywhere that I went. I helped raised and trained him since he was 6 months old up until he was 7. Unfortunately, our journey had to come into an end when I had to move states for my first career out of college. Now that I’m back home in Cali, I’ve been yearning for another dog best friend or few. Sadly, where I currently live doesn’t allow for dogs on the premises so I’d be happy to go wherever to take care of your furry loved one! My experience includes basic obedience skills such as training and leash manners. **I am also extremely protective of your animals so I won’t take them where I know they could potentially be in danger or in harm.** *I am very communicative and will send pics when you’re away! I am available on the weekends, evenings, and holidays! I am sometimes free during mid afternoons. I am also available to board if when it is requested. I like to make sure that I am in constant communication with every pet’s owners. My preference is that I am provided with a list of do’s and don’ts. Otherwise I like to maintain a clean environment and make sure all animals are fed based on the schedule and amount that the owner provides. I like to be in constant observance of all animal’s habits in case for any changes of health or behaviors and I make sure to maintain a healthy amount of affection based on each animal’s needs.

About: As an experienced dog owner, I love working with dogs of all shapes, sizes, and personalities. While I specialize in large breeds and high-energy working dogs who need confident handling and structured exercise, I am equally attentive, gentle, and patient with medium and small dogs. No matter the size, your pup is in safe, capable hands. As a flexible local professional, pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine. Because I manage my own schedule, I am out and about in the LA area every day, making it easy to accommodate prompt drop-ins and structured walks when you need them most. My routine is highly active, which is perfect for high-energy working breeds that need consistent, timely mid-day exercise to break up their day. At the same time, my flexibility allows me to easily tailor my schedule for smaller or senior dogs who need dedicated, calm potty breaks and attention. Whether you need a regular weekly schedule or occasional check-ins, I build my days around ensuring your pets get consistent, reliable, and on-time care. When caring for your pets, my absolute priority is safety, structural consistency, and clear communication. For Dog Walking & Drop-In Visits: I tailor every visit to your dog's specific size, energy level, and temperament. For large or high-energy breeds, I focus on confident leash handling, maintaining their established training commands, and giving them a robust, engaging workout to burn off steam safely. For medium and smaller dogs, I adjust the pace to ensure a comfortable, stress-free stroll or focused playtime. For House Sitting (In Your Home): I respect your space entirely and keep your dog’s exact home routine intact to prevent any separation anxiety. I ensure they are fed on time, kept on their regular potty schedule, and given plenty of attention. You will receive regular check-ins and high-quality photo updates during every single service so you always have total peace of mind.

About: I'm great with dogs, and a belly rubber expert. My wife says I stole her dog... because our dog prefers me now. Taking dogs for a walk and see new neighborhoods is a bright part of my day. I'm available for walking services in the afternoon. Drop-in visits in afternoon and night during the week. I have a flexible schedule during the weekend. My walks will always have treats (if you allow). Your dog will be on leash all times for the walk, I will be careful around other dogs. I'm ready for the slow and the runners. And most important I will listen to you on any tips on how to take your dog to the best walk or have a good play time during a drop-in visit.

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.
