Dog Walkers in The Oaks, CA

About: What sets me apart is real, hands-on experience with dogs that many sitters never encounter. I own Apollo, a pit-mix with high reactivity, and have worked through his training alongside a professional trainer as well as through my own dedicated research and practice. That process taught me how to read canine body language, manage triggers, and stay calm and consistent under pressure; skills that directly benefit any dog in my care. I also share my home with Thalia, a high-energy husky, so I know exactly what it takes to keep a high-drive dog mentally and physically stimulated. Beyond my own pets, I've built real experience pet sitting dogs and cats for family and friends, sometimes for days or weeks at a time, handling daily visits and routines solo. I'm comfortable with dogs, cats, and other pets, and I bring the same patience and attentiveness to every animal regardless of size, breed, or temperament. Pet care has always been a natural part of my life. I grew up with pets and currently have my own, so caring for animals isn't just a service I offer, it's something I genuinely love. As an online student working toward my Bachelor's degree, I have the flexibility to be present throughout the day, whether that's a midmorning walk, an afternoon drop-in, or a multi-day house sit. Because my coursework is self-paced, your pet always gets my full focus. I structure my day around the pets in my care, not the other way around. My priority is keeping your pet's world as normal as possible while you're away. I follow their established routine closely: feeding times, walk schedules, and any specific habits you share with me. Consistency is what keeps animals calm and comfortable. Every visit includes food, water, exercise, and real quality time, not just a quick check-in. You can expect photo updates after every visit so you always know how things are going. I'm comfortable with dogs, cats, and other pets, and I adapt to what each individual animal needs.

About: I have been around and handling animals my whole life. Big or small doesn’t make a difference to me. You can have 1 or 100 the more the merrier I’ve always said. I have experience with young big puppies and wait for you in the darkness to trip you cats. The “ excuse me may I have one more treat” horse to the parkour off you and everything goat. The sneaky kitties get caught redded pawed and the blubbering hounds sing with joy. I just moved back to Santa Clarita after living in Texas for 9 years. I’m currently doing handyman freelance work so I have a pretty open and flexible schedule. I try my best to make it seam like you’re not even gone by keeping to your pets normal scheduled routine and activities. That includes walks, feedings, medication, playtime, outside time a long with lots snuggles and plenty of treats (if allowed)

“On time and connected with the furry ones instantly”

“Great communication with lots of pictures of bacon on walks. She really took care of him like he was her own dog. I will definitely be requesting more walks from Alyssa.”

About: Helping friends when they travel, neighbors too. I'm the one who they call. Animals and kids have always been drawn to me. I'm authentic, down to earth and passionate about animals. I will treat your kids (pets) like they are my kids (pets). With love, patience and kindness. I have cats of my own. I spend all day, every day with them. I have a flexible schedule so can adjust according to the needs of my clients. I cater to the needs of the client and the pet. I do not have a set routine. Each pet and owner are different. I will work with each client individually, based on their requirements and needs

About: I’ve had private clients over the past two years consistent of house sitting and dog walking. Moving to a new area and switching to Rover to meet new pets to care for. I currently have open weekends and work a 9/80 schedule allowing me to be off every other Friday and available to help your pets! I provide attentive, loving care by following each pet’s routine, ensuring safety, clean environments, regular exercise, fresh water, meals, medication support, and consistent communication with owners.

About: I’ve helped care for my sister-in-law’s dogs and have experience feeding, walking, playing with, and providing companionship for them while she is away. I enjoy spending time with dogs and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I’m dependable, attentive to instructions, and committed to treating every pet like family. I have a flexible schedule and can provide pet care throughout the week. I’m available for feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and keeping pets company while their owners are away. I will communicate regularly and make sure your dog receives the attention and care they need. I understand that every dog has different needs and routines. I follow all care instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, exercise needs, medications, and house rules. I prioritize your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being and will treat your home and pets with respect and care.

About: I'm not scared of animals and I know how to read them. I give each pet the time it needs to get comfortable so that I can establish a relationship of trust. I'm nether a cat person or a dog person or a tortoise person for that matter, I love all pets equally. I've taken care of virtually every kind of house, pet (including my aunt's chinchilla) thank you got something I haven't seen before? Bring it on. I'm ready for it all. I don't consider taking care of pets to be at shore or work. I take care of them because they take care of me. They keep me calm and grounded, even when things are at their most chaotic. First things first, I treat each animal as if it were my own. I make sure to give each pet the attention it deserves. Upon first introduction and the patients to let it get comfortable when needed. From there I'm happy to take care of any special requests you might require for your pet.

About: My flexible schedule allows me to provide the care and attention that all dogs crave. I have loved dogs all my life and prefer to ensure that my pups are well trained and socialized. I am willing to provide basic, positive, reward based training if you would like. No yelling and definitely no hitting! There is no doubt that positive reinforcement and consistency bring about the best results when training. If your dog has a training regiment that you would like to stick to please feel free to fill me in and I would be happy to continue that training. My work from home schedule allows me the flexibility to care for your pets, even when given short notice. My pets here get tons of daily outdoor time so they feel happy, rested and ready for bed by the evenings. Individualized care and respect is important to me. When entering your home and caring for your animals I listen to your concerns and goals and take responsibility for the safety of your fuzzy family members. Trusting someone new can be scary so I take the time to send a lot of photos and progress notes so you can be at ease that your pets are being well taken care of.

“Madalyn is the best! Very communicative and understanding of what our dog needed. Will definitely use again!”

About: I have always had animals since I was a kid and I have always loved them! I love their unconditional connection with us. I have senior dog care and medication administering experience. I am trying something new in my career path, which will hopefully include your pet. I want to work with animals more and turn it into a career. I can't wait to get my steps in with your pet! I have an open schedule at this time. I'm looking to fill my week with regular walks, visits, and boarding. I have three daughters. My oldest actually works as a pet bather with Petsmart and my two younger daughters love animals as much as I do......I've been told by my oldest that I'm not allowed at the animals shelter anymore. 🤣🤣🤣 I live in a mobile home with a fenced yard. I have four of my own fur babies that are welcoming to new visitors. Depending on weather we may go for walks at the park and visit the dog park or play in the backyard or even the house with toys. But as long as it's not too hot or raining we hit the park and dog park.

My dream is to be able to one day work remotely and foster animals on the side. I’m excited to be able to provide you with trusted care and companionship for your animal!
