Dog Walkers in Topanga, CA

“Justina is fantastic! I have three rescues, medium sized, who are strong willed. Justina was able to make a quick connection with all three, overcoming anxiety and caution is my spoiled dogs. She easily handled them on an hour long walk, understanding their preferences and patterns and managing their behavior. I think she has a gift in connecting with animals, and I feel fortunate to have found her. She is also good with overindulgent dogs parents.”

About: I’m a dependable, animal-loving sitter who focuses on safety, routine, and lots of affection. I’m experienced with puppies, senior pets, and pets who need a little extra patience. I follow instructions closely and make sure your pet feels comfortable, cared for, and happy while you’re away. My husband and I always stay together, and we make a great team to bring your pet love and affection and lots of activity. I am current job hunting, and training to be a pilates instructor. My routine is very flexible, and I have been spending most days at home or a class or two at the studio. My husband always stays with me, and is an excellent care taker as well, so when staying overnight, we join forces to build our life around the pet’s routine. I am very detail oriented and aware. I value dogs and treat them like family. My upmost goal is for them to feel comfortable when away from their owner, and carry this out by following instructions and using tactics learned from dog training masterclasses.

“Mari is a wonderful, reliable and flexible animal lover! I was traveling in the Topanga area and Mari came on short notice to help me walk my dog so I could focus on work while I was visiting. Both my dogs liked her right away and couldn’t wait for her to come back the next day. I enjoyed getting to know Mari as she is a warm, intuitive and lovely person. I cannot recommend her enough for your animal care.”

“Andrea and Michael are just so wonderful. I have had some really bad experiences in the past but they are just incredible. When they boarded my dog for a couple for a couple of days, she was literally sleeping with them in their bed .. They loved her like she was their own. ( Which meant everything after the negative experiences I have had.) They're just so and loving and Andrea could walk for miles and miles !I I don't know how she does it for all the walks, but she's in tiptop shape lol. We could not ask for a better care takers of my beautiful honey beast and we are leaving her soon with them for a week and the only reason I feel comfortable leaving my dog for that time is because of them. Otherwise, I would not leave my dog with anyone else.”

About: As a lifelong animal lover from a family of animal lovers and with 13 years in animal rescue, I’m the person who always rescues animals in need, especially from high-kill shelters. Pets are family to me. After my two babies passed, I now professionally sit and foster. I believe each pet has a unique spirit, and I’d love to meet yours. I also practice animal communication and healing, helping pets feel less anxious. Alongside my rescue work, I run a trauma healing and mental health non-profit, creating programs to help individuals heal and reclaim their lives. I’m a writer, work from home, and am passionate about holistic health, music, travel, and nature. Your pets will receive compassionate care from someone who truly loves and understands them. I have animal friends from all over the world. I work from home and at my own schedule. Flexible availability any time or day of the week. I will do whatever is expected to make your animal feel safe, appreciated; and in their routine. Each animal has different needs and I respect this while having a strong knowledge of animal behavior.

About: I have years of experience taking care of dogs, cats, and even snakes and lizards. I can also take care of bigger animals between 50-150 lbs. My first goal is always to make the animal feel comfortable and calm as per my client’s direct instructions. I prioritize courteousness, professionalism, and respect for my clients directions at all times. As well, I always try to show up on time and ready to work towards whatever is needed. My hours are flexible, and I’m only one phone call/text message away at all times. I have very flexible hours and can be available whenever you need me to be. Monday through Friday and weekends, I can make whatever you need work. I am always very calm and respectful when I first meet any animal, making sure that they understand that I am a friend and not someone to fear. Before moving into their space, I always make sure that they’re comfortable and feeling well taken care of by the standards of my client’s instructions.

“Jessica is a great walker and always lets me know what’s going on. Very grateful for her!”

About: I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Everything from energetic puppies to gentle senior dogs. I have experience with basic obedience reinforcement, handling dogs that pull, giving medications when needed, and helping shy or anxious dogs feel comfortable. I also have a dog of my own, so I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet. What sets me apart is my patience, consistency, and calm energy. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, likes, dislikes, and unique personality so I can give them the same level of care they get at home. Because I’m an online student with a flexible schedule, I’m also able to offer more time, attention, and dependable communication than many sitters. Your pet won’t just be looked after, they’ll be cared for like family. Because I’m an online student at Santa Monica College, pet care fits very naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to plan walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting around my coursework. I’m usually available throughout the day on weekdays and weekends, and I love getting outside for walks and spending time with animals. Since I don’t work a traditional 9–5 job, I’m able to give pets consistent attention, regular check-ins, and plenty of one-on-one time. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I always prioritize safety, consistency, and comfort. I follow the pet’s usual routines for feeding, walks, and playtime so they feel secure and relaxed. I make sure doors and gates are locked, keep an eye on anything the pet could get into, and pay attention to their body language to make sure they’re comfortable. I’m also very big on communication. I provide updates, photos, and check-ins so owners always know how their pet is doing. I treat every home with respect, keep the space tidy, and make sure the pet feels safe in their familiar environment. Whether it’s going on walks, giving medications, helping shy pets warm up, or just spending extra time with them, I always care for each animal as if they were my own.

“Sam has taken great care of our dog Rex over the past month, and also added on helping to care for our cats and house while we were away on vacation. He's very flexible and communicative, and has been accommodating to schedule changes throughout the holiday season. We're very thankful for his help in making sure all of our pets are safe and well-cared for when we're away from home!”

About: I'm Anthony. Animals have been a huge part of my life and my work. I've spent the last few years caring for dogs professionally, walking, boarding, assisting with grooming, and supporting all kinds of temperaments. I'm patient, confident, and comfortable with everything from high energy pups to shy or anxious dogs. Your pet will get steady attention, a calm handler, and someone who notices the little things, behavior, appetite, mood, comfort. I love building trust with animals, and I'm here to make sure your dog feels safe, happy, and understood. I have a flexible schedule at the moment. I do work part time, but I am able to adapt my schedule as I need to, in order to make time during the week for walks and sitting jobs. While sitting I like to make sure pets have a comfortable space inside where they feel relaxed and if they have toys around, depending on their temperament I like to get some playtime in. I like to walk frequently throughout the day in their neighborhoods and try to find parks nearby if possible.

“Charlie had a great time!”
