Dog Walking in Tuscany, Bakersfield, CA

About: I’ve been caring for pets for a few years, mostly for close friends and family. Whether it’s feeding, walking, or just keeping them company while their family is away, I’ve always treated pets as my own. I often help with housesitting and babysitting as well, so I’ve learned to also juggle multiple responsibilities. I’m currently home for the summer from college, although as back to school season starts, my last day in Bakersfield will be September 15th. With no current academic commitments, I am able to build my daily routine around the pets I care for! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always do my best to keep their routines as normal and comfortable as possible. I’m not afraid to ask clarifying questions about your pets to ensure I am giving them the best care. :)

About: I’ve had many dogs and cats while growing up and with that, I’ve had to take careful care of them in their senior years with medications and their overall well-being. I’ve always been trusted to dog sit overnight at friend’s and family’s houses throughout the years. I am a 2nd year nursing student and currently have the summer off from school leaving me plenty of free time for watching and taking care of animals. My main priority with this job is pet safety of course. I’m very cautious when taking them on walks and when they are around unfamiliar dogs.

“Lindsay is extremely professional and communicative. She sends photos, updates, and notes everytime she comes. We are happy to trust her in our home, and with our baby. She has worked with us, despite an ever changing schedule. AMy pup loves her, and he is the true judge.”

Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities.

I’m comfortable with administering medications, monitoring health, and providing lots of playtime, walks, and snuggles.

I give regular updates and photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away. 🐾

About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was around ten years old. I have experience from pigs, bunnies, turtles, to cats and of course dogs! I have raised puppies of my own and senior dogs as well. I love pets in all shapes, sizes and most importantly, personalities! I have even volunteered at the animal shelter to make sure I can provide those without owners, a loving experience with genuine care. I will always put your furry loved ones first and give them not only the best care possible, but also a loving home away from home where they feel comfortable and loved! I am a full time student at UCSB where I only attend a couple of classes in the morning for only a few hours at a time. I live very close to campus so I am always able to come home in between classes. I am very much a home body so I have pretty much a free schedule to bond and play with your furry loved one! My home is very safe, it is a studio with a smaller backyard. There is much space inside for your furry loved ones to play and the best part is the dog park across the street! For those whose house I will be entering, I will always listen to any special instructions and be very respectful of your space.

About: I love and have cared for dogs since I was 15, I have patience for any breed and I have open availability. My most recent dog I cared for is a pug. He was a puppy and I trained him how to go on the pee pads and when he got a little older we went for walks. I always go for walks, always make sure the puppy/dog gets enough attention, food and water. I have watched all sizes of breeds from chihuahua to a husky, unfortunately because I just moved into an apartment I could not watch bigger breeds from home but I am always willing to drive to you! I am super reliable, very trustworthy and respectful. Thank you for reading, I hope to hear from you soon!
