Dog Walkers in Trinidad, CA

About: Grew up with family dogs, and strategically made friends with cats so I could pretend they were mine. Currently I have a 7 year old goldendoodle who has taught me a TON about training dogs in the 6 years I've had him. Your good boy will enjoy every smell on our walk and get some (owner approved) treats along the way, and I'm happy to continue your work on any behaviors you're encouraging! My schedule is pretty much wide open for north county visits (McKinleyville and up) - feel free to reach out with same day requests! Further afield than that I may need some notice, but am happy to work something out! Just send me a message. I'm a pretty "safety first," cautious dog owner. I'll follow your instructions to the letter, and will err on the side of caution. I like to take the time to get to know your critters, and let them get to know me so that it's always exciting when I show up! For interested dog owners, I can facilitate a meet with my own dog for a double walk or a dog park playmate - after a meet and greet to make sure they get along.

“Thank you for your excellent service. Highly recommend Aubrey to take care of your animals.”

About: I am a long time animal lover and have been working in pet care for over 25 years professionally. I have ample experience with dog walking and overnight pet sitting. I ran my own dog walking business as a sole proprietor for many years, and also have worked as an independent contractor for other dog walking & pet sitting companies. In the past, I've cared for many different animals of varying ages and breeds; from puppies and kittens to seniors. I have plenty of experience administering medication for animals who need it, whether it be ear/eye drops, pills, and insulin injections. I also have experience caring for small and furry (rabbits, hamsters, guinea pigs) as well as scaly (fish, snakes, turtles). I'm responsible, caring, and punctual, and I genuinely care about providing great service to you and your pet. I am looking forward to meeting your furry (or scaly) friend! My schedule is fairly flexible and I will accept bookings Mon-Sun from 8am to 5pm. I prefer to do an free consultation with your dog before you book your first walk. I do appreciate advance bookings, but will do my best to fit you in! Your pet is a member of your family, so it is important to me that your pal feels loved and cared for while you are away. I travel to you and I am not currently available for boarding in my home.

“Mariah was great with my dog! She was very attentive to him, sent photos while out walking him, and made me feel really comfortable knowing he was well taken care of!”

Lacey G.

“Ashley was very attentive and kind and we are so pleased she came to walk our pups. She worked us in on short notice. Will definitely rebook with her. 10/10 recommend”

Amanda C.

“Casee has been so great to work with. She has cared for my sweet yet challenging at times 10-month-old rough collie. Casee has been beyond exceptional at communicating with me about any concerns as well as reporting what happened during their walk together. Casee is prompt and responsible about keeping our scheduled walks and makes every minute count with my dog by giving her a quick neighborhood walk and then a frisbee or ball session at the nearby park. She also has a warm demeanor that makes it so easy to talk to, as if you have known her for years! I really lucked out with finding her and I highly recommend her for any of your pet care needs.”

About: I am graduating college in May and I love animals and I have house sat a variety of dogs and cats before, and have also taken care of a couple guinea pigs, a bearded dragon, and a pig before. I love to getting to know and taking care of pets! I have loved dogs all my life, my first word was dog! I have owned a dog my whole life and I currently have a dog named Buster who is a 10 year old Jack Russell chihuahua mix who likes to make me carry him while out on a walk. I would love to get the chance to hang out and play with some dogs! I became a first time cat owner in November of 2020 when a cat showed up in my yard. He showed up in a bit of a sorry state but with some visits to the vet, time, and care he has become a happy and playful member of my family. His name is Goosetofur Toast Man, or Goose for short, and I have enjoyed being a cat owner more than I could have imagined! I have been pet sitting since I was in high school and I have watched over 40 different pets. My availability is very open and flexible, I will be available for the majority of the day on most days this summer. I would need to potentially be out for a few hours at a time for things like meetings for a local camp I volunteer at or to run errands. I will enjoy spending time with your pet if they are active and want to go out on long walks or hikes, or if they are a bit of a couch potato I will have a great time curling up with them on the couch. I am observant and care deeply about the wellbeing of the pets I watch and make sure to notify and come up with a plan with owners if I notice any issues with a pet.

About: I used to have my own dog walking/pet sitting business before moving for college for about 8 years. I love caring for pets and look forward to helping whoever out! I go to Cal Poly Humboldt State but only live 5 minutes away from school so besides my classes my schedule is pretty much completely free. I have a fenced in yard as well as a great roommate for more company for your pet. If you feel comfortable with your dog off leashed I also live right next to a large field for fetch:). Whatever your dog needs feel free to reach out and let me know!

About: I have been surrounded by animals for most of my life and I love to help them live their best lives! I studied pre-veterinary biology for two years, so I know about the science behind animals as well as understanding their basic care and needs. I am very good at matching the energy level of any animal and I have a special passion for exotic animals (but of course I love dogs and cats too!). I am experienced in giving medication and I do not shy away from cleaning up any and all messes that they may make. I am currently a student at Cal Poly Humboldt and I have a lot of breaks in my class schedule. For house sitting, I would only be out of the house for 2-4 hours at a time for classes on weekdays and would be able to stay all day on weekends. My schedule is also perfect for drop ins and potty breaks. I feel that I am a very easy person to work with and I will follow any and all guidelines or rules that you present to me. I will also help with house cleaning if you would like that, in addition to cleaning up after your pet(s).

About: I've been around animals my entire life, and have cared for all kinds of dogs, specifically, as well as cats, rodents, and even exotic animals, but those are my own. I'm currently a college student looking for both a part time job and some other ways to get money. My schedule is flexible and isn't subject to change anytime soon! Personally, I’m iffy on boarding because i have 5 dogs myself, plus more animals in my house. However this does not change my love and attentiveness I will have for your pet! I love to play with them, give treats, walk them, and make sure they make minimal mess in your absence.
