Dog Walkers in Sunol, CA

About: I’ve been lucky to care for dogs, cats, and bunnies through every stage of life, from playful puppies and kittens to sweet senior pets who need a little extra patience and care. I’ve also pet sat for others for extended periods of time, including 4 to 6 weeks at a time, so I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pets and home in someone else’s hands. I care for each pet like they’re part of my own family. I take the time to learn their routine, personality, likes, dislikes, and comfort level so they feel safe, loved, and understood while you’re away. I’m comfortable with pets of all ages, all dog sizes, and pets who need medication or a little extra attention. Whether your pet is playful and energetic, shy and cautious, cuddly, independent, or in their senior years, I’ll meet them where they are with patience, kindness, and lots of love. My goal is to give you peace of mind and make your pet feel comfortable, cared for, and never alone. I work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and makes it easy for me to fit pet care into my day. I’m happy to make time for walks, drop-in visits, and house sitting based on your pet’s needs. I understand how important consistency is, so I’ll follow your pet’s usual routine for feeding, walks, playtime, medication, and companionship. I’m also happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can feel comfortable and connected while you’re away. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. I know it can feel stressful to leave your pet in someone else’s care, so I do everything I can to make the experience as smooth and reassuring as possible for both you and your pet. When caring for pets in your home, I’ll follow your instructions closely and maintain their normal routine as much as possible. Whether that includes feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication, litter box care, cuddle time, or simply keeping them company, I’ll make sure their needs are met with patience and attention. I understand that pets thrive on consistency, and keeping their routine familiar helps them feel secure while you’re away. I’m attentive to each pet’s individual personality and comfort level. Some pets love lots of interaction and play, while others prefer a calmer approach and need time to build trust. I’m happy to adapt my care to what makes your pet feel most comfortable and relaxed. Safety is extremely important to me. I’m careful with doors, gates, leashes, harnesses, and home access, and I always double-check that pets are secure before entering or leaving the home. I also pay attention to changes in behavior, appetite, energy level, or anything else that may be important, and I’ll communicate with you promptly if I notice any concerns. I’ll treat your home with the same respect and care that I would want someone to show my own. You can also expect regular updates and photos so you can feel connected and reassured while you’re away. My goal is for you to return to a happy, comfortable pet and have complete peace of mind knowing they were cared for with kindness, responsibility, and genuine affection.

“My doggies love her! I was worried because I have a scared/timid boy and he does really well with her, he had a tough first day but she was so patient and kind with him. She does great and worries about my doggies like she would her own! She’s really nice too. Easy to work with!”

About: What sets me apart is the time, attention, and genuine care I give every pet. I’m home full time, so your pet won’t be left alone for long hours; I’m able to stick closely to their routine, provide companionship, and quickly respond to any needs. I’m also very observant, which is especially important when caring for senior pets or those with special needs. I have experience with both dogs and cats, and I’m patient with shy, anxious, or high energy pets. Whether it’s giving extra belly rubs, helping a senior pet move around comfortably, or keeping a puppy on track with their training schedule, I focus on making sure each pet feels safe, loved, and happy. I treat every animal like they’re part of my own family. Since I stay home to support my family, I have the time and flexibility to give pets the attention they deserve. Pet care is already part of my daily routine; I’m used to feeding on schedule, cleaning up, taking pets out, and making time for play and exercise. Being home allows me to respond quickly to their needs and keep a close eye on their well-being. I genuinely enjoy the companionship and love creating a safe, calm environment where pets feel comfortable and cared for. Whether pets are in my home or I’m visiting theirs, I prioritize keeping their routine as close to normal as possible to help them feel secure. At my home, I provide a clean, pet safe environment with regular feeding, potty breaks, playtime, and quiet time. I follow any special instructions, like medications or preferred toys, and keep pets supervised and comfortable. When I’m in a client’s home, I respect their space and routines. I make sure pets are fed, walked, played with, and cleaned up after according to the owner’s instructions. I also take time to bond with the pet, so they feel safe while their owner is away. I keep in touch with updates and photos, so owners know their pet is in good hands.

“RJ took great care of Remy on his walk. He’s communicative, friendly, and transparent about everything. It’s my first time using Rover and it can be stressful finding someone to trust your fur baby with but I instantly felt comfortable with RJ and most importantly Remy did. He sent photos and videos throughout the walk which I loved.”

About: I have 9 years of hands-on animal rescue experience including fostering, TNR work and caring for pets from outdoor rescues. Through this volunteer work and my unconditional genuine love for all animals, I’ve learned to be patient, observant, and gentle, giving each animal the time and care they need to feel safe and comfortable. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine, and I make sure I have the time and flexibility to give each pet my full attention. I prioritize consistency, clear communication, and unhurried visits so pets feel relaxed and well cared for. I’m especially comfortable caring for rescue pets and understand that trust can take time, so I always move at each pet’s pace and respect their individual boundaries.

About: Since I was 11, I have done drop-in visits for dogs of friends and neighbors. Additionally, I have grown up walking my family’s dogs and hiking with them. For the past 6 years, I have done overnights with them and have helped maintain their medication schedules. I am out of school for the summer, so I have open availability each day. I am an early riser and night owl, so I am flexible depending on your needs. I respect client wishes for mode of entry to their home. I respect the dog’s space and make sure their comfort while I am there is my top priority. all toys and messes such as dirty dog bowls will be cleaned up before I leave the home.

About: I have had been around dogs since I was a baby! My family calls me Dr. Doolittle because I've always been so good with animals. I have taken care of animals overnight for almost 8 years for family, friends, and coworkers. If preferred, I love to bring them along on hikes and runs or just give them the cuddles they well deserve. I am a full-time student but am fully remote! This gives me plenty of free time and availability to give potty breaks, go on walks, hikes, runs, or just spend some quality time with your doggo. At others' homes, I am very respectful and considerate of people's boundaries and treat the home with full respect. I am there to keep your dogs company and show them love until you get back.

“Jane was fantastic. Super communicative and caring. My trip was so much more relaxing thanks to her time, attention and updates. Absolutely plan on using her again!”

“We were out of town for a week and had Alex come to walk our 3yr old Labrador daily. Alex did a great job, followed instructions, and provided photos and walking route everyday. We would definitely book again with Alex.”

About: Hi!! My name is Aurora and I’m so excited to take care of your furr baby or babies! I have years of experience taking care of a wide range of pets from cats to big and small breed doggies. I love animals and believe they are a member of the family and should be treated as such! I have been relied on for walking my friends and neighbors doggies, cat sitting, and routine check ins to ensure that their fur babies are happy, healthy and, most of all, not lonely! As you can see from my pictures, my partner and I have three amazing fur babies, two of which are cats and one big doggy. Our two cats are Hela and Athena and our big goofy fluff ball of a doggie is named Loki. Because I raised my little family members from babies, I am more than comfortable taking care of puppies or kittens also! Pet care fits easily into my schedule — I work Monday-Friday 8-4pm—, leaving early mornings, evenings, and the rest of the weekends open for walks, drop-ins, and overnight care. In a client’s home, I follow their pet’s usual routine—feeding, walks, play, and any special instructions—so they feel secure and cared for in their familiar space.

“Our go-to when we are in need. Experience with Anne is always fantastic. Our puppy is used to her as well and is always happy from their walks! ☺️”

About: I've trained and cared for my own dogs, both small and large breeds, all of my life. I've also volunteered extensively for shelters, walking and fostering all kinds of dogs. I'm also trained my own horses, giving me a strong sense of how to communicate with animals. I work from home on my own flexible schedule. As a result, i can accommodate your and your pets' schedules on weekdays as well as weekends. I can provide whatever your pet needs: walks as needed, playtime, comforting if he or she is anxious, and of course feeding and watering on their schedule.

“Responsive and reliable. Very easy to communicate with and schedule service. Tom provided photo updates of his walks with my dog and was also kind enough to bring my packages inside. I will definitely use Tom for dog walking again in the future.”
