Dog Walking Summit Village

“Dorothy was wonderful! She was friendly, reliable, and took great care of Daisy during her walks. Daisy was always excited to see her each day and clearly enjoyed getting out for exercise and plenty of time to sniff and explore. It gave us peace of mind knowing Daisy was in such caring hands. We definitely would recommend Dorothy for a trustworthy and compassionate dog walker!”

“Amy is very thorough and thoughtful. She took copious notes on my senior dog and changed her diaper and wiped her paws awesomely per my request. When faced with language barriers, Amy is still communicative, kind and respectful— my mom liked her too!”

About: I've been helping care for friends' and family's dogs since I was 10 years old. Because I've always loved dogs and hoped to have one of my own someday, I've spent a lot of time learning about dog care, behavior, training, and enrichment. I've worked with puppies frequently in the past and am comfortable with the extra patience, supervision, and consistency they require. Whether it's walks, playtime, feeding, or sticking to a specific routine, I always make sure pets feel safe, happy, and well cared for. Pet care fits great into my routine. I have a flexible schedule, and I'm available throughout most weekdays for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, and playtime and I always make sure to follow each pet's routine as closely as possible. While I do have some weekend commitments and can't do late nights, I have an otherwise open schedule. When caring for pets in a client's home, I make it a priority to follow their normal routine as closely as possible. I make sure pets are fed on schedule, have fresh water, get plenty of exercise and playtime, and receive the attention they need. When caring for puppies, I'm especially attentive to potty breaks, supervision, and maintaining any training routines. I'll also make keep the owners updated throughout the day.

“Barbara has a very Calm disposition and is very good with Mowgli. He enjoyed his walk with her and seems calm when around her. She is very prompt and respectful. And communicates well. We will be definitely asking her to take our Mowgli for a walk again. Thanks Barbara!!”

I have been a house sitter multiple times for animals. I included 3 years for my years of experience, as it is off and on. I will have plenty of time to complete and provide pet care, I am very flexible and open when to comes to hours and days needed.

I am highly proficient in administering medications, managing specialized diets, and recognizing subtle behavioral changes to ensure safety. My commitment to maintaining a clean, stress-free environment and providing consistent companionship ensures your pets remain happy, healthy, and secure while you are away. I am currently working part-time, which gives me the flexibility to offer pet care earlier in the day.

About: ** If staying for a long time (2 weeks or more) and/or a previous customer, prices are negotiable!!*** I have had many cats and dogs over 20 years and my father is a veterinary pathologist so I have grown up with knowledge of pets. My own pets have had various illnesses so I have dealt with nearly everything, just ask. I love all animals, and I'm willing to work with you. I am detail oriented and will provide loving care for your pet while you are away. I hope to establish a relationship with you and your pet for as long as you need me. I have had a Border Collie so I am used to high energy pets and pets needing lots of attention. I am currently the proud mom of a ChiPit (Chihuahua-Pitbull), he's as sweet as can be. I am a huge cat lover as well - I miss owning them and would love to take care of yours. I am very accommodating, just send me a message to get started!

About: What sets me apart is a lifetime of hands-on experience and a genuine bond with dogs. While I haven’t worked as a professional dog sitter before, I’ve been caring for dogs since I was seven years old. I’m now 32, and throughout my life, I’ve had a Maltese, an English Setter, and a Gordon Setter. My setters were hunting dogs, so I’m comfortable with energetic, intelligent breeds that need both physical exercise and mental stimulation. I’ve trained them in basic obedience, manners, and recall, and I understand the importance of consistency, patience, and clear boundaries. I’ve cared for both small and large dogs, and I’m experienced with feeding, walking, bathing, playtime, and making sure they feel safe, calm, and loved. I can also teach simple commands and fun tricks like sit, stay, lie down, roll over, spin, and shake. I am a Spanish woman who moved to Folsom with my husband a year ago. I am a great animal lover and I have had dogs since I was little. In my childhood, I lived with two setters: an English setter and a Gordon setter, and a Maltese bichon. This has given me experience with both large and small dogs. Now, although we cannot have one of our own, I would love to care for others, as I greatly enjoy their company. My daily routine is flexible, and I have full availability to adapt to the needs of clients and their pets. I fully adapt to each pet’s needs. I am very attentive and will always ensure the dog has food, water, and is comfortable. If I notice something is wrong, I address it immediately. I handle walks carefully, avoiding direct sun, and if bathing is needed, I do so with experience, using proper shampoos and conditioners, especially for long coats. I can also brush them. If a vet visit is required, I will take care of it. Additionally, I love playing with dogs and making sure they feel calm and happy when their owners are away. In short, I handle all the care a dog needs with attention and affection.

About: I love dogs so much, I love going on walks so why not make it the best of both worlds! I would love to be able to be around your pups to bring me and them so happiness! I love to get movement in, my 10k steps a day, and to go on walks myself so having a dog with me would just make it even better ! I always make sure my pets are taken care of! Not only make sure they are safe but make sure they are happy and feel loved!

“Thank you Dale! The dogs look so well loved.”

About: Hi! My name is Auva, and I have been a petsitter for four years. I have also spent the last five years part-time nannying, tutoring, and gardening, all which have made me even more patient and compassionate. I am very attentive and want you to feel your pets are in good hands, and I strive to make you and your pet as comfortable as possible while you can't be with them. I love walking and am always happier with a furry friend as a companion. I am flexible and have experience caring for dogs and cats of all sizes, ages, temperaments, and some who needed a little extra effort (post-surgery, shy, aggressive, etc). I am a university student home on summer break. My schedule is fairly open and pet care fits in very easily, alongside my part-time research position which is hybrid online/in-person. I often walk, whether or not I am petsitting, so making sure potty breaks, playtime, and walks happen is no problem for me! I care for pets in client homes, and with years of experience in overnight child and pet care, I know how to respectfully visit your home. I either come and go or stay overnight based on what you prefer and what makes you most comfortable. I also love keeping owners updated with texts/pictures/videos if they want!

About: Over 30 years of pet care experience! I’m the type of person that stops by the side of the road to save a lost animal. My dog is a swimmer, not a walker! I work from home, but have a very flexible schedule. Definitely looking for a morning walker and am open for home drop ins otherwise. Safety is key, it is summer right now so pets should be indoors most the day. Early morning or late evening walks are best. Check the ground temperature and do not walk your dogs when its hot!

About: I have over 35 years experience handling and caring for dogs and cats. I am a medical assistant and emt and have treated many wounds and ailments on animals as well. Ranch raised kid that has also raised four kids of my own out in the country. I am comfortable with all dog sizes and puppies too. Currently, I am available any days of the week anytime. I just moved to this area and have not secured employment yet and I’m thinking about going back to school. I have my own reliable transportation. I do not offer pet sitting in my home unless it is a small dog. I prefer to housesit and care for pets in their own environment. I love to walk and hike and I love to take dogs with me. I love the outdoors

“Lacee is much more than a dog walker, she actually cares and observes Meeko’s behavior and reports her concerns. Meeko looks forward to their walks and is always super-excited to see her, I look forward to him getting rid of his energy so I can get work done, and we BOTH highly recommend Lacee!”

About: Hii there!! I’ve have taken care of many animals my whole life, In 2021 I started working at a boarding facility that loves and accepts fur baby’s of all kinds of personality’s! I love the pups and kitties that are happy to be loved and given attention but am aways ready for a crazy love bug or nervous pup/ a kitty that just needs space or might have spice (I don’t do at home cat boarding). If needed I can provide Nail clipping and grind for dogs! also clips for cats, bunny’s, guinea pig’s, and bearded dragons. My best interest is always your fur baby’s comfort and to not to stress him/her out, I have learned over the years body language of pups and kitties and when what’s going on is to much “how to read the room” I’ve cared for many puppies (preferably when vaccinated) And have dealt with many crazy puppies! I’ve cared for lots of older pups as well, if they need extra care I will always be sure to give them that and the love they need. If your older pup or younger pup needs medication I have been trained on giving medication in food/ treat, pilling, and injections. If you have any questions about my services or how I can help you and your fur baby be sure to ask :) I’d love to meet you little lady/man!! My weeks are always filled with taking care of Pups and kitties along with my own 4 legged friends and I couldn’t see it any other way, It always makes the day better meeting and getting to love your furry friend! I will always do my best to give your fur baby the space they need when needed or the love they want when wanted, making sure they have a good experience with someone new! And if needed give some special care for the fur baby's that need a little extra help and love, trying to give them the love and support I would give my own baby!

About: I’ve had pets my entire life! Small dogs, big dogs, and cats of every kind! I’ve raised and trained puppies and kittens, cared for senior pets, and nursed sick pets back to health!

About: I owned a dog camp for 10 years in the mountains outside of Boulder, CO. My daughter and I want to share our love and knowledge of animals with others. We have lots of experience and would love to spend time with your furry friends. My staff and I also worked extensively with Tenderfoot Trainers in Boulder, CO, and I have experience with a variety of dog personalities. We have a very flexible schedule and work from home. I have a small import business and work from home. My daughter homeschools and has various classes and lessons throughout the week. We can provide care (walks, food, snuggling, and potty breaks) in the early morning, at lunchtime, and/or dinner time as well as do sleepovers. We provide services housesitting, dog-walking, feeding, and giving potty breaks. Both my daughter and I love animals and we treat all pets as if they were our own. We understand how challenging it is to be away from your furry family but we will give lots of love, send lots of pics and do our best to form a lasting and loving relationship with your dog while you're away. We hope that your pup has as much fun as you while on vacation!
