Dog Walking in Southgate, Bakersfield, CA

“Thank you!”

Ainalen P.

About: I am a Fear Free certified veterinary technician of 13 years who grew up in the show dog world (AKC) before getting into rescue as an adult. Throughout my long-lived animal career I have participated in puppy/kitten/basic obedience training, behavioral rehabilitation, dog sport training, senior care, care for animals with extreme medical needs, and owned/operated a group play doggie daycare. My jobs, hobbies, and passions are all centered around animals and I can't wait to bring that passion to you! I am home full-time, and available for puppies and animals with heavy needs. I have a fairly set schedule for all of the pets in my care, and that level of routine provides comfort to even the most nervous of pups. I am the only Fear Free pet carer in Bakersfield! I provide comforting classical music as well as calming pheromones in the sleeping spaces to make their stay as stress-free as possible. I have a fenced yard and never leave dogs together unsupervised. I do not provide an environment suitable for animals with a history of dog aggression. Small dogs I can be more flexible with, as their attitude usually comes from a place of fear and that is something I can work with for the little guys.

“Sahvanna has been such a blessing! She has endless patience with my dog who does not trust easily. After one week, I now see him staring at the door hoping she walks through to take him out. I could not recommend her enough! Thank you!”

About: Hi, I’m Moriah — a massage therapist and lifelong dog lover who believes balance and care are just as important for animals as they are for people. I bring a nurturing, grounded presence to every walk, blending reliability with genuine compassion. Whether your dog needs playful energy or peaceful comfort, I’m here to make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for every step of the way. As I grow my solo massage practice, I have mornings open before my afternoon and evening sessions as well as sunday and Mondays off— the perfect time to give your fur babies the love, attention, and walks they deserve. I want to provide the level of care that best fits the overall needs of your fur baby. My goal is to uphold the routines, training, and structure you’ve already put in place so that everything feels natural and consistent for both you and your dog. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or quiet companionship, I aim to make their time with me a seamless and comforting extension of home.

About: Very responsible with pets, always making sure they are well fed, hydrated, and cleaned up. I will gladly always want them to have fun, run around- play with toys, and feel loved! I currently am still in school, but in the meantime for summer I am eligible to take care of pets any time during the weekdays. I go to the gym, but always have spare time to care for pets with love. I care for pets in my home- a comfortable environment, area for potty, food and water. Open area in the yard for play time, and running around.

About: I might not have much pet sitting experience, but occasionally, I take care of my friends dog at his apartment. It’s very relaxing and rewarding. I think it would be very satisfying to take care of other people’s pets to get more experience with responsibility and life. I am available between Monday to Friday around late afternoon or evening. Nighttime as well. Just let me know ahead of time if you have any questions. Thank you. I’ll keep a good eye on your pet. I’ll hangout with them so they won’t get lonely. Or play with them. I’ll make sure to follow the list of feeding them at a certain time and putting them to sleep.

About: I have taken care of dogs for about 8 years. This has included all ages. I have kennel trained my dogs, potty trained, taught commands, and have the basics down as well (such as baths, medications, and other necessities dogs may need). I currently am a stay at home mom with some extra time to care for your pets! My family loves animals so you’r pet will be taken extra care of! Since I am home most of the day, your pet will have all the attention! We have a decent backyard that will allow for outdoor time and a neighborhood for walks!

“Kelly was able to walk my dogs on short notice. She was prompt, kind and my pups loved her. Thanks Kelly!”

About: I have experience and patience to deal with dogs. My house is well maintenance and have a big yard for dogs to run around and play I have the time to do it. They just need to let me know with time what days and times will they drop off and pick up I keep them in a save enviroment. Feed them as told by per owner. Will have them in good care. And I have the time to care for the dogs and take them for a walk

About: I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life. I mostly grew up around German Shepards and miniature Dobermans. I have two dogs of my own named Milo and Bear. I adopted Milo when he was a little less than a year from the pound. I got Bear just 6 months later from someone who couldn’t keep him. I love dogs and want to help take care of your pets! I am a stay at home mom and I also work from home. Working from home gives me flexibility to be able to be there for your pets. In my home or your home your pets safety and well being is my top priority. I will treat your pets with the same love l treat mine with. I believe pictures and videos are important to provide to show you how your pet is doing. I also send updates about your pets like what they’ve been up to and if I have concerns I definitely would let you know. I do live in a one bedroom apartment but I have a front yard I can take your dogs out for fresh air and to use the bathroom.

“Sidney was great!! On time. Took pictures amazing. Will definitely call her again when I’m back in town!!! Thank you for taking such good care of Bankx”

About: I've been around cats and dogs all my life. I'm a trained dog bather, I've also trained Huskys, Beagles, Havanese, and many mixed breeds.I am excellent at playing fetch and keep away. I currently have open availability. I am able to check in with your pets multiple times a day. I also am available for overnight stays. I have a secure patio for my dog. My clients have fenced in yards. There are toys inside and outside at my house and at my clients. There are also multiple water bowls.

About: I have been working with animals since 2014. I worked as a veterinary assistant for over 9 years, so I am comfortable with whatever your pet may need. I have great references & reviews! I have several re-peat clients from Rover and some outside of Rover. I am available pretty much every day as I hardly ever travel out of town. I am a full time student at the CSU, so I would need to work around my school schedule for drop-off & pick-up. My husband works from home so will be home all day with animals, but is not available for drop-off & pick-up as he is on calls/meetings all day. Please let me know how many pets you have and if any of them need additional services done before scheduling, such as medications as that is sometimes crucial to have at a specific time. Getting a short history of the pets would be ideal to make sure I can fully accommodate them. If your pet requires lots of attention and doesn’t like to be left alone, or is destructive at all, I may not be a good fit. I also have 3 cats that are in the home. If your pet is not good around cats please do not book with me. Can't wait to meet your furry friends! Please read my details before booking - I have 3 cats & 1 small dog. I am a full time nursing student here in Bakersfield. Will be able to do a short walk, feed and let outside to play before leaving for school & once I get home. Some days I only have class for 2-4 hours. My husband works from home & will be able to let dogs out for a bathroom break every 2-3 hours during the day. We do wake up in the middle of the night to let the dogs out as well. I have a small dog who loves all other dogs. She will be so happy to keep your pet company. I have a fenced in back yard where I let them run & use restroom. Animals allowed on furniture. If I leave for the day or a few hours I prefer to crate the animals if they are not well house trained (so I don’t come home to destruction or lots of poop/pee). My home is brand new so trying to keep it in good condition. If your dog is house trained well this will not be an issue. I do not host multiple dog families at the same time. One client at a time.

About: This job taking care of dogs is by far my one of my favorite one as dogs are therapeutic and a joy to be around I've cared for about 20ish dogs now and some repeat clients since being on here in December of 2024 and don't regret a moment at all and learned alot.
