Dog Walkers in Sugarloaf, CA

About: Since I was born there was always a dog in the house. I have grown up with dogs wether they were mine or my other relatives. I have grown such love for not only dogs but other animals as well. I have had bunnies to hamsters to fishes all throughout my life! I just recently moved to the area and while I search for employment, I would love to walk your dogs🥰 I love animals so I thought this would be perfect for me! I do not currently plan to house others animals at my home because I do have two fur babies of my own. I do have a full backyard that is all fenced it though.

About: I’m Cassidy! I’ve cared for dogs of all ages and sizes: energetic puppies to sweet seniors, ranging from 8 to 100+ lbs. I used to love spending slow afternoons with my last dog as she grew older — and also had a blast training and playing with my current American Dingo mix, Denali, from 8 weeks old. Over the years, I’ve built a strong understanding of dog behavior, psychology, and body language. I don’t believe in harsh punishment — my goal is to help your dog feel safe, secure, and happy, which is why I always lean into positive reinforcement and praise. Building trust comes naturally to me, and I love getting to know each dog’s unique personality. Every pup is different — it’s what makes them so lovable! Working from home means I’m flexible year-round for both Big Bear locals and visitors. Whether your dog needs a fun walk, a quick drop-in, or some love and attention while you work or go for your own adventure — I’ve got you covered. Can’t wait to meet your sweet pup! I’m a work-from-home solopreneur, which means I make my own hours and have fully flexible availability. I also live in Big Bear year-round, so I’ll be able to care for your dog in any season. Whether your dog needs a quick check-in while you work during the week, a fun adventure while you go skiing in the winter, or some love and attention while you’re out of town — I’m here to help! I'm a full-time Big Bear local who loves to take my own dog for adventures — so I know all the best dog-friendly spaces and trails. I can spoil your pup with an adventure they love! And if you'd rather let your dog stay at home where they feel most comfortable, I'm happy to visit and keep them company while you're away. I'll respect your space and leave it better than when I arrived. Happy to share references and reviews from previous house-sitting clients! My top priorities are always: 1) Keep your pup safe, happy, and cared for. 2) Give you peace of mind, so you can fully enjoy your time away.

About: About Me: Animals are my life’s work. My background is unique: I spent 20 years as a commercial airline pilot, a career built on extreme reliability, safety protocols, and being dependable under pressure. I bring that same disciplined "cool head" to pet sitting. Whether I’m managing a pack on a mountain trail, caring for a senior dog, or tending to a barn, your animals’ safety and your peace of mind are my priorities.R Rehab, Healing & Holistic Expertise: For over 15 years, I have specialized in rehabbing dogs with behavioral challenges. My approach is a blend of structured positive reinforcement and intuitive energy work: Behavioral Rehab: I have extensive experience with "difficult" cases, rescues, and high-needs temperaments. Energy Work & Reiki: I am trained in Animal Reiki and Emotion Code. This allows me to help animals release trapped emotions and settle into a calm, balanced state—perfect for anxious travelers or rescues with a traumatic past. All Species, All Breeds – No Discrimination I welcome all animals regardless of breed, size, or status. I am comfortable with "power breeds," giant breeds, and intact dogs, provided they are social and well-mannered and trained. The "Adventure" Standard: For my canine guests, we go on at least one long hike or intensive walk daily, often including outings to the lake and local trails. Farm & Livestock Care: Having run a farm animal rescue, I am experienced with horses, goats, sheep, cows, pigs, and poultry. I am happy to provide farm-sitting services for those who need a caregiver who truly understands livestock. Why My Experience Matters From the cockpit to the farm, I’ve spent my life being the person people count on. Whether your animal needs a high-energy mountain guide, a calm healing presence, or a knowledgeable farm hand, I have the experience and the heart to provide it. Feel free to ask me for a multi-animal discount! I am home full time dedicating my life to my animals. We typically head out for our long walk or hike in the morning after which everyone is having their meal. The exercise in the morning ensures a calm and happy pack for the rest of the day. My property is fully fenced in and dividable into three sections: Front yard, porch and backyard. The animals are my priority and are typically never left alone.

“Ria was wonderful! Communication was quick, booking was easy, and we could tell our doggo got some good exercise on his walk. Ria also left detailed notes and plenty of pics for us and we could tell he was getting plenty of attention. We felt completely comfortable leaving our furry family member in her care and highly recommend her.”

“Tara gave my dog an excellent walk! He came back well exercised and she sent plenty of pictures. I would definitely work with Tara again! She also made time for me on a very last minute appointment. Thank you Tara”

“Brooke was responsive, friendly, and flexible, all of which are super valuable in a dog walker/sitter! Groot had a great time with her and she was able to take care of him on very late notice. On future trips to Big Bear, we’ll definitely be reaching out again :)”

About: Hello! My name is Taylor, and I am an animal lover with 15 years of experience caring for my own cats and dogs. I have been walking dogs professionally for about 3 years. I'm offering all services available through Rover (walking, stop-ins, overnight sitting, etc.) to help you and your fur babies! Thank you for taking the time to read about me, and I hope to be seeing you and your pup as soon as possible. :) My work is flexible and remote, so I am available at any time. I can provide all Rover services weekends and weekdays, day and night. I have a fenced patio for fresh air, and an unfenced yard in front of my apartment for relief and play. My senior dog, Bronson, loves to make friends and welcomes company.

About: I’ve always had animals around while growing up. I don’t think I can recall a time I haven’t had a pet. I even insisted on rescuing my dear Daizie May when I was 12 from the pound. I’ve helped raise several litters and rescue any dog I see in need. I have to actively stay off Facebook as to not fall into fostering or taking in any animal in need. My boyfriend calls me a Disney Princess with the way I communicate with my animals. It’s all about body language, respect, and patience. Trust is extremely important. I currently work a flexible schedule in my family owned business and am looking for side jobs that I also am passionate about. Any time that I’m needed I can usually make it work. I’m ready to follow and assist in whatever systems are set up in your family and household. Whatever your fur family is used to! Photos are VERY important and cherished.

About: We love animals! And we have an extra soft spot for senior dogs. I am located in Big Bear City and will arrange to meet your pet before our first appointment to ensure that they are comfortable with me caring for them. I work part time and am always happy to fit a pup or cat visit into my day. If your animal has a specific time they prefer to visit, just let me know. We are happy to walk your pup or play with them at your residence. Cats will be nuzzled and loved in your safely within your home.

About: I’ve always had dogs and cats growing up. Animals are a major part of my life and I have a special bond to them. I have experience with dogs, cats and other critters. I am certified in pet first aid and have walked/sat over 100 dogs and cats. To say that I’m passionate would be an understatement! 🐾 I’ve worked for a pet sitting company for over a year before deciding to work independently. I currently volunteer at Grateful Heart Animal Sanctuary. 🐄 🐓 🐖 I hope to meet you and your furry pal soon! 😊 I am a full time sitter/walker and part-time certified massage therapist. I’m also a college student. I specialize in drop-ins, dog walking, boarding and cat care. I’m very detail-oriented and give my all to every pet. Big Bear Schedule: Sunday evenings - Friday nights Rialto/Fontana/Ontario/Rancho Cucamonga Schedule: Saturday mornings - Sunday mornings I have a fenced yard with a gentle giant named Athena. She’s a Great Pyrenees rescue who is great with animals of every size. She is trained and an absolute teddy bear.

“Destiny was great with kimchi! Very responsive and kept me updated throughout the stay! I recommend her for any pet needs!!”

About: I have taken care of many animals since I was around 12 years old. For years, people within my community have come to me to take care of, or spend time with their sweet (and sometimes not so sweet) pets while they were away, and because I am so used to caring for children, I have a special place in my heart for pets of all kinds. I am very patient and nurturing and have many pets of my own back home in GA where I grew up, but because I am away from my own fur babies, I am hoping to have the opportunity to spend time with yours, just as if they were mine. :) My typical full-time job is within the film industry, which is shut down for the time being due to a writer’s strike that has forced thousands out of work for an unknown amount of time. With that being said, I’m spending a lot of time at home and have a completely open schedule for pet care! The writer’s strike likely will go on for months, so I am fully available now for full-time pet care and will still be available part time once the film industry is back up and running! I have always felt comfortable having pets on my furniture as well as in my bed, as I grew up with three “lap dogs” who crave constant attention and cuddles. I understand that not all pets prefer to be touched or held, but I like to give pet owners that option. :) I am a pretty active young adult, so I love dogs that like to go on hikes or walks around our nice, friendly neighborhood. (or yours!) I never let my own animals’ food or water bowls go empty, so I make sure that the pets are always well maintained and taken care of. I am attentive, caring and patient and I’m eager to share my love with your pets!

About: I have always been an animal lover. I have a BS degree in Biology with an emphasis in Zoology, and I managed a veterinary clinic for seven years. We currently have a German Shepherd, a Great Dane, and one large fluffy cat who are our furry kids. I am a very compassionate and empathetic person. I have been in social services by trade, and I love connecting and developing relationships with people and have a particular love and connection with animals. Even in my work both Child and Adult Protective Services, I always found myself drawn to protecting and caring for animals as well, to try and be their voice and an advocate. Working with people and pets seems like a natural progression, as it plays to all of my strengths!

“Madison is absolutely amazing with my dog. She has been wonderful to work with, very communicative, always on time and very polite and professional. She takes such good care of Stella on their walks together. I highly recommend Madison to anyone looking for pet care. She is the best!”
