Dog Walkers in Twin Peaks, CA

About: I offer patient, personalized care with experience in senior pet support, and shy or anxious animals. I treat every pet like family, with love, structure, and attention to detail. I am self-employed, and my schedule is open. I prefer to schedule walks from 7am. I live in Lake Arrowhead, and am open to Crestline to Running Springs. I treat them as members of my family. I believe that all animals should be treated with respect and recognized as individuals. Getting to know your dog is half of the fun for me!

“Katie is the absolute best! She's patient with our gentle giant who is generally weary of strangers. She took several meet and greet sessions to make him feel comfortable and safe, despite his stubbornness and hesitancy. She's such a gem and won over the trust and love of both of our elderly dogs. They get so excited every time they see her. We're so lucky to have found her and wholeheartedly trust her with them!”

About: Growing up in South Africa, going on safari was a significant part of my culture, and my love for animals has been ingrained in me from a young age. After the loss of my beloved 20-year-old cat, I found joy in walking and playing with a neighbor's Husky, helping to fill that void. Currently, I don't have any pets of my own, so your furry friend will be my top priority and cherished companion until you return. I moved to the mountains five years ago and work primarily from home, allowing me to provide plenty of attention and care. I am very hands-on, with a wealth of love to give, and I have a natural knack for connecting with animals. My cat used to snuggle with me every night, and I can't wait to welcome more little fur-balls into my life to cuddle. My standard nightly rate includes up to 2 pets. In addition to my passion for animals, I have completed a cat and dog CPR certification course through the Red Cross, ensuring that I am prepared for unexpected situations that may arise. I also hold my own liability insurance underwritten by Lloyds of London, separate from Rover's insurance, giving you peace of mind while your pet is in my care. Furthermore, I have successfully passed an enhanced background check by a third-party provider. Animals are my passion, and I feel incredibly grateful to live in the mountains, surrounded by all the beautiful wildlife. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member/s! Pets need love, security and re-assurance when their human parents are on vacation. That is why I prefer to house sit. I can also just drop in for feedings and walks if you are more comfortable with that. I will treat your fur babies with love and respect and give them lots of play and cuddle time! Your wish is my command and I will follow any special instructions or routines you may have.

“Kasia is great. Olive our Rottweiler was a big fan. She was responsive in app and early/on time in person. You are in good hands, we will book her again.”

About: I've always had a love for animals. I've had pets since I was young ranging from Cats, Dogs, Fish, Etc. When I was 14 I started working at a local animal rescue where I fostered and found homes for over 100 cats. I specialized in caring for cats with disabilities. A few years later I helped my parents open a cat sanctuary. I also have experience working at a vet in the mountain community. I am currently between jobs and can spend all of my time caring for your animals! I currently care for 1 dog and 4 cats that I have rescued as strays. I am unable to care for pets in my current home but can attune my schedule to any schedule needed. I can also provide any care needed to your animal while watching them.

“Katelin’s communication was great.”

About: Hii! My name is ileanna, and I have been taking care of dogs for about 6 years now. Growing up, my neighbors would trust me to feed, clean, walk, cuddle, and give medications to their dogs. I have experience taking care of elderly dogs that required me to physically pick them up in order for them to move due to their mobility issues. I don't shy away from difficult tasks such as those. I have experience training puppies of all breeds, from little Poodles to German Shepherds. I am currently a student at a community college, but I am taking all of my classes online. Therefore, I am free Monday, Wednesday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. I am very flexible regarding my hours. I am very attentive and will not take my eyes off the dogs I care for unless they are in a protected safe space like the inside of their home. Depending on how much the pet drinks, I will refill the water at least 3 times a day. If I am provided with a list of instructions, I will follow it to a tee, and of course, I never get tired of playing with them, or turn away a good cuddle!

About: Animals play a HUGE role in making my life feel whole. I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life, I grew up with 4 dogs and I've owned 3 cats and now have 2 amazing pup scruffs, who are my absolute world! My expertise also includes 2 years of volunteer work at the San Pedro animal shelter, I’ve also had the pleasure to take care of numerous pets while employed as a Nanny for 3 families over 6 years. I also regularly take care of friends and family pets. I pour my heart and soul into creating a safe and comfortable space for your furry friend and I to thrive. Im super attentive and intuitive to acknowledging a cat/dogs behavior and adapt accordingly. I know how hard it is leaving your baby while you're away, and being the amateur photographer that I am, expect way too many photo and video updates! My schedule is very open as I am looking to expand my services to full time. I am available Tuesday-Sunday. weekends are subjected to change When I'm in your sacred space that is your home I intend to follow every precaution needed to allow peace of mind. -Setting up an initial meet up to ensure we all vibe! -A walkthrough of the home to become familiar with the space. -Keeping communication open and available whenever you need it. -Most importantly, giving extra extra love and attention, cuddles and pets.

About: My experience with pets includes all types of critters ranging from two legged feathered ones, four legged scaly ones, to four legged furry ones. I'm the proud mommy of a very catty cat, and two sweet bunnies. My pets are part of my family, and that is exactly how I will treat yours as well. Having taught middle school students, I'm quite efficient at managing sometimes unpredictable schedules and different personalities. I'm very playful yet organized, and love working with all kinds of animals. I'm quite patient, and enjoy watching their personalities unfold as they get to know me better. I Have worked with old as well sick animals, so I am more than capable to handle any emergency should one occur. I can administer medications as well. My neighbor and I are both pet sitters, and we often work together as each other's backups. We also help each other with our own and our other neighbor's pet. Because of that, we offer to both come to the initial meet and greet so you can meet both of us. I generally require a meet and greet to make sure we can see if we are a match. To me, my clients are part of my extended family, and I prefer long-term clients over constantly rotating ones. Leaving pets behind is always stressful, and having a long-term relationship with a sitter makes the separation a lot easier for both the pet and the owner. As a freelance care provider and photographer, I couldn’t ask for a more rewarding way to spend my time around pets. Being able to create a flexible schedule enables me to not only spend time with my own pets and family, but also provides me with the energy to give my utmost attention and energy to your pets when they are in my care as well. I always stay at the clients house for overnight bookings, so your pets will have plenty of company. Safety and comfort are always priority. During my time as a teacher, I learned that clear communication is key to any successful relationship. I require a free meet and greet before accepting any request. The meet and greet is a great time for you, your pet, and me to get to know each other, and discuss any routines and special considerations. I also request that you provide a written list of all important information including feeding and walking schedules, and a list of emergency contacts and veterinary information. My grandmother taught me, “it’s better to be safe than sorry”, and I am grateful to take this lesson with me into my profession.

“Ivy was wonderful with our chocolate lab. She is a great communicator and followed our instructions intently. We will be booking with her in the future!”

About: I love all kinds of dogs, little wild ones, big slow ones, big sporty ones. They just crack me up. I will treat your pet with the utmost love and care at all times and be communicative with you about any changes in behavior, possible issues. I've had dogs my whole life and have been doing urban pet care for almost 10 years. I clarify, cause farm dogs are a totally different animal and I wouldn't ever even try to leash one. Ha!! I look forward to hearing from you. -Kristy Most of my experience has been with my own pets. I've had cats or dogs (usually both) my entire life. Growing up on a farm they get into all kinds of trouble and frequently need special attention. I also frequently pet sit for friends, neighbors and former employers. I'm very responsible and will care for your pet as you request. No treats unless you say so and no sofa time unless that's ok with you. Why I love dog sitting I've loved dogs since I was a kid. I've always had animals in my life. Dogs, cats, chickens, a calf I bottle fed, horses... need I go on. Most of my dogs have been in the 60lb range. So I'm used to holding my ground and handling them when they get excited. Since I've been in LA, I have been a surrogate parent to my friend's dogs, but have had my cats Doodie (now with my ex) and Harris (my little southern girl). I also have a special gift for catching "runaway" pets when their owners can't. My experience administering medication Yes. I'm a master of the blow in the face to make them swallow their pills trick. I have also given shots before to a diabetic weenie dog.

About: I grew up with dogs through my whole my childhood. Until I was 20, my mom got me a cat. So now we have 2 pups and a cat. I am currently a college student and taking most of my classes online. I am available in the morning Monday- Friday. I am available on some weekends. Just message me My pups are well trained to stay near my house when I am outdoor doing some yard work they are always near my surrounding. I always make sure to give them as much of attention when I am outside like playing with them.

About: Hello my furry friend lovers!! I have cared for many different kinds of animals in my life, some of which include dogs,cats,birds,mice,rabbits,guinea pigs,fish,snakes,goats and now pot belly pigs. We love making homemade treats in our house so I am currently taking some pet nutrition classes to safely make special dietary treats. I am comfortable with all ages and sizes. I would be more than happy to meet you before any final decisions are made so that we can discuss everything there is to know about your pet. I have experience with different illnesses and medications from working with a rescue where I adopted my own angel with a neurological disorder. We absolutely adore pets and I can promise you that you and your baby will be treated like family. I am a stay at home wife that is taking pet nutrition and business classes so I could someday open my own pet boutique where everything is homemade. I promise no potty breaks will be missed and your baby gets all the love and cuddles they can handle. 😊 We have dogs, cats and pot belly pigs for your pet to play with in our fenced yard but we also have big crates for separation if needed. Your baby will be allowed on our furniture to sleep and get cuddles unless you say otherwise lol we do love our snuggles.

“Jason did great walking Blizzard, who I had just picked up off the streets a couple weeks before and wasn't very acclimated to his new life yet. He understands the importance of a meet and greet for new dogs, and paid great attention and care to my dog's personality and well-being and to earning his trust. It's clear that loves meeting and caring for dogs, has good instincts, and definitely cares about their well-being beyond just the walk; he helped work on Blizzard's walk commands and keep them consistent, and stayed a bit after walks to continue making friends. I had him walk Blizzard while I was out of town, and would normally walk him myself, but if I was unable to exercise him again I would definitely ask Jason to care for him again.”

About: I have had family dogs growing up and as well as into adulthood and around my daughter. My dog passed a couple years ago and I thought I could give back to the pet community. I have my own business so I can set my own schedule which allows me to work around the schedule that you need. My business is local on the mountain so I am up and around the area. I care for the pets the way that you need. I will ask questions and find out from you how best to care for them and their needs. I then write those details down and remember them on the follow up visits.
