Dog Walking Sonoma Ranch

“Ryan was fantastic! He walked my dog every day for two weeks over the holidays and was always on time with excellent communication. I loved getting photo updates after each walk, it gave me a lot of peace of mind while we were away. I’ll definitely be using him again next time we travel, and I highly recommend him.”

About: Hi! I’m Rodrigo. More than just a dog sitter/walker, I work professionally with dogs every day. As a dog parent of 10 years and a professional dog trainer who has worked with countless dogs of all sizes and personalities, I am not just a dog lover but someone you can feel at ease to trust with your four-legged family member. 🙂 Puppies, seniors, working dogs, reactive dogs, and so on. I’ve handled them all. Feel free to shoot a message with any questions or concerns and I look forward to meeting your dog! (: Currently have an open a flexible and open schedule as working with dogs is my full time focus. Please feel free to message me for scheduling questions (: I currently live in an apartment so I only accept about two or three boarding dogs at a time. Usually boarding dogs are crated within the home for safety. All training or fun will be had outside so the home if for resting and relaxing during the hotter times of the day.

“We love Marla, she takes such good care of our pup and she is very accommodating to our changing schedule! It puts our minds at ease to know someone comes to visit Layla while we are at work and we know she looks forward to Marla’s visits :)”

“Hector treats each dog as his own while walking them. I had someone's loose dog attack my own and Hector protected my fur baby as if he were his own. He loves and protects him wholly each time Hector takes him out. Look no further - there is no better dog walker available in the city right now.”

About: I've spent several years caring for both dogs and cats through pet ownership and pet sitting, and I truly love getting to know each animal's unique personality. I've owned dogs of all sizes—from a corgi to a Saint Bernard—so I'm comfortable with pets of all breeds, sizes, and energy levels. I have an extensive history of pet sitting for a variety of clients while in high school and in college, and for the past several months, I've also been pet sitting for physicians in the San Antonio Medical Center, and I've really enjoyed helping give them peace of mind while they're away! I'm happy to help with just about any pet-sitting need, whether that's drop-in visits, daycare, overnight stays, or house sitting. I'm also open to caring for all kinds of animals, not just dogs and cats! My goal is always to make sure your pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you're away, and to keep you updated so you know they're in good hands. I can't wait to meet you and your pets and give them the same love and attention I'd give my own! I am currently a medical student, but have a pretty light course load this semester! I am typically in class some days of the week from 8am-12pm but am pretty available otherwise! I have no problem stopping by before and after my classes if needed on the days that I am in class (typically 3/7 days of the week). I am very flexible with whatever the rules/ preferences for each pet may be within their house! I understand that each family has different routines with their pets and have no problem doing my best to accommodate them! I also prefer to keep in frequent contact with the owners I have sat for in the past with texts and photos to send updates!

About: Hi y’all! I’m Jackson, and I am a huge animal lover. I’ve lived with at least 2 dogs my entire life, and I now have 3 dogs waiting for me back home in Houston. My animals received many, many walks while under my care. I’ve dog sat for countless neighbors, family friends, and strangers, and I’m no stranger to scoopin’ some poop. My oldest pooch was 18 years old, and I’m more than aware of the stubbornness that age brings along. I’ve raised many puppies too, so I’m familiar with the nuance of tender yet firm care. I’d love to get to know and provide top-notch care for your animals, if you’d let me! I am a full time student at UTSA. I have class on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, so Tuesdays, Thursdays, and weekends are more than often available. I try to visit home once a month to spend time with my family, including my dogs, so I’d love to fill this canine void I experience here in San Antonio. I have been the owner and the stranger to untrusting dogs, so I’ve gathered the best way to approach these kind of animals from both sides. I have no issue with getting on their level, exercising patience, or crating. I pick up on mannerisms and comfort levels easily, and I can adapt to the needs of each animal efficiently.

“I have Ella booked for repeat walking. My lab is young and very active, and Ella will put in the work to tire him out. Moose loves her and we feel at ease knowing he is in good hands. She provides feedback and is communicative. Always on time too. Highly recommend her!”

“Jessica has been wonderful with my two dogs. She comes on time and takes them on. 30 minute walk. She is flexible and my dogs are happy when they come home.”

“My bullmastiff, Gus, loves Tim!! I had to start going back into the office 3 days a week, and I was concerned Gus being alone and in his crate for so long. Tim started walking him on those days and I can see a huge I’ increase in Gus’ happiness. Someone rang the doorbell the other day and Gus got so excited!! Normally he ignores the doorbell. But he was looking for Tim. This makes me so happy to see Gus so happy. Thanks Tim for doing such a great job!!”

About: I have taken care of dogs and cats since I was 12. I would walk families dogs and care for their pets! Cats are included. I try to spend time outside every day and walking your dog would be the perfect addition to my daily life. I work a flexible job so house sitting will fit in well! I will always be mindful to follow house guidelines and pet guidelines. I will use discernment in situations if needed and make sure that your pet is getting the love they need!

“Samantha is amazing beyond words!! Our precious Luna just absolutely love her. Thank you so much for always doing such an awesome, awesome job!!”

About: I've taken care of dogs since I was a kid, and for the past 4 years I've been in jobs that include dog care such as a kennel attendant, dog bather, and dog groomer I work from home, as does my fiance so someone will be home at all times to take care of your fur baby. We have plenty of time in our schedules for walks, playtime, anything they need If it is my home they will have access to the entire place, they will get constant attention and love, potty breaks at least every 2 hours, but sooner if needed.

About: I grew up with all types of different pets in the household from dogs to guinea pigs to birds and even shrimp! So, naturally, I came to love for all animals! Loving them means to also care for them, so I had to provide care for each animal making sure they were properly fed, cleaned, and had a safe environment to sleep. What you can expect from me: * Quick responses * Reliable scheduling * Updates/photos during visits * Respect for your home and routine I currently work part time and go to school full time, but I still have plenty of time to dedicate to the loved animals of San Antonio. I promise to provide the absolute best care to your pets and to your homes. I will make sure your pets are kept safe and properly cared for. I also walk my dogs all the time, so I know proper handling and care when walking a dog.

“We’ve had a few walkers from rover befors, but Cristi’s is by far the best of them. Attentive and caring and she always communicates with me.”

J G.

“My dog usually goes to daycare, but if he’s sick or injured and needs to be out for a while, I use Rover. I look for Alexandria every time. She is sweet and attentive to my dog and communicative with me. I am so glad she was available again to help us. My dog loves spending time with her! I am a repeat customer of hers and I’m sure she has many! Thanks, Alexandria!”

About: I grew up with pets as part of my family, which taught me from an early age how to care for them with patience, consistency, and respect. Being around dogs and cats my whole life helped me learn how to read their body language, understand their routines, and respond to their individual needs, whether that means playtime, quiet companionship, or extra reassurance. I have a special place in my heart for those sweet babies with the silver speckles. I had a senior cat I lost not long ago, and I also have experience with senior dogs that have special needs. I, of course, enjoy the youngins too! I'm happy to care for pets of all ages, as well as any pets with special needs. The only pets I would have to decline are dogs with aggression or aggressive tendencies. Please see my requested important information section with further details. I have recently started a new part time job, but the time I’m not working, I love to meet some new furry friends! I am happy to accept house sits any days, as long as it is okay that I am gone for 4-6 hours at a time for my job. I also tend to take some drop ins and walks occasionally while house sitting where I would be gone for up to 2 hours at a time. Otherwise, I intend to spend most of my time at your home taking care of your pet. I prioritize the pets I care for, so I always ensure they’re well taken care of during my time with them- especially making sure they are set if I will be leaving the home for hours at a time, and then showering them with all of the love and attention once I return. For arrival times to house sits, as well as drop-in and walk times, I ask for flexibility. I am happy to work around my part-time job schedule to care for your pets to the highest standard on any day, but my availability for certain times on different days of the week may vary. I focus on providing calm, attentive care that keeps pets comfortable in their own environment. In a client’s home, I follow their pet’s established routine as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, playtime, medications if needed, and plenty of affection. I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and comfort level, making adjustments to ensure they feel safe and at ease while their owner is away. Cleanliness, consistency, and clear communication are important to me, and I treat every home and pet with the same care and respect I would my own. I am happy to provide consistent picture updates of your pets and keep in active communication with you. I also strive to leave a home as clean (if not cleaner) than I found it for all of my services.

About: I have taken care of animals since i was 8 including dogs, cats, birds, lizards, and more. My love for animals has only driven my passion to care and provide for them. I have worked at the san antonio zoo, shelters, and humane societies. I’m currently a full time student, with majority of my classes online so I can spend as much time with your fur babies as possible. This also allows for me to stay overnight or check-in when needed. I live in a big community with many parks, natural trails, and even special dog parks. I can easily crate, direct, and even transport dogs if needed. I can handle big dogs as my family has great danes and rottweilers.

“Mel has walked Ace for me several times now and each time he is very timely, very kind, and communicates well. He is wonderful with Ace and I never worry about my fur-baby when he’s with Mel. He is also great about responding very promptly and flexible with scheduling. Definitely give him a try, you won’t be disappointed! Thank you again, Mel!”
