Dog Walking In Verdugo Viejo

About: I’ve had pets my entire life! Since my very first Boxer, Roxy, I’ve been completely in love with the companionship of dogs. In fact, I raised my own dog, Rambo, from a puppy, and he still lives with me today! As a fellow dog owner, I know firsthand how challenging it can sometimes be to juggle everything that comes with having a pet. Let me help ease those worries and be there for you when you need a hand! I absolutely love everything about animals and can’t wait to meet your pup soon! I live super close to the beach and several great dog parks. I’m very attentive to each owner’s preferences for how and where their dog should be walked, and I’ll always check in to make sure your pup gets the care that suits them best. Since I’m a long-distance runner, I’m more than happy (and able!) to give your dog as much exercise as they need! I'm super flexible and easygoing, but I do have to be strict about overnight dog-sitting cancellations to keep things fair for everyone. That said, if we set up a plan to walk your pup, you can count on me, I’d never miss it! 😊 Your pet's happiness means so much to me! I won’t be able to provide house-sitting services, but I do have a park very close to my home where I can take your dog for walks and, with your permission, even enjoy some playtime in the dog park! Rest assured, I’ll be the only one caring for your dog, so you can feel completely at ease!

“Lilit was flexible adapting walks/playtime based on Ferdi's sensitivity to the heat wave. This was very much appreciated 👏 and really shows how attentive Lilit is to my puppy's needs. Thank you!!”

About: I am a pre-vet student set to graduate with my bachelor's degree next year. I have taken care of many animals my entire life, I have had over 5 of my own (2 dogs, 5 cats, and a bearded dragon)! I currently work at an ER veterinary clinic and I have about a year of experience in general practice veterinary medicine, as well. I am extremely passionate about animals and I truly believe becoming a veterinarian is my calling. I promise to care for all fur babies as if they are my own 🩷 I currently work at a vet clinic, but I will make sure to make time for your furry friends! Animal care is my passion :) I have four cats, always willing to play! If your pet gets along with other pets, they are more than welcome to stay at my house!

About: Hello! My name is Lauren. I'm a longtime dog lover from a small mountain town. Dogs have always been a part of my life so I know firsthand how important they are. I grew up with dogs being a beloved part of the family, from when they were puppies to seniors. I have been a part of training and end of life care. I have been a dog walker in LA for several years and look forward to meeting many more dogs in the years to come! I am lucky to work from home with flexible hours, so I am able to build my schedule around any pet care opportunities! I own a car and can reliably commute to and from anywhere within my radius. I know that every pet has their own needs. Sometimes the shyer animals just need some company and others need to play, run, and get their energy out. Every pet in my care gets attentive looking after and owners can expect regular updates and photos.

“Isabel was awesome as always! She accepted my very last minute request and is so easy to communicate with, and my dog loves her. She’s a gem!”

“Paula is amazing! She has such a kind, gentle presence. My little pug loved her instantly, and was sad to see her go. This is a top notch animal lover, highly recommend!!”

About: I’ve always shared my home with dogs, whether living with roommates and family who had pets or stepping in to pet-sit for friends. Even without having a dog of my own, I’ve developed a deep appreciation for the unique bond they share with us 'two-legged animals.' I love their capacity for unconditional trust and pure affection—they really are the best companions. Whether I’m matching their high energy or enjoying a quiet moment of calm, I find so much joy in their presence Currently I am on sabbatical from my job and have time to spend with pets. I like taking dogs out for walks at the park, or just around the neighborhood. Unless some other life responsibility comes up, I am open to spend as much time as I would like with the fuzzy butts! I live in a small 8 unit apartment building in a very walkable neighborhood. I live very close to Griffith park and love to visit there with dogs. My apartment is a 2/2 and there are no limits to if a pet is on the furniture with me. I love to snuggle if they like to.

“Our baby isn't used to being walked by anyone else - although he was stubborn about walking with Sean, Sean was great about keeping in text contact, giving him a bathroom break, and playing with him in the house. Thank you Sean for doing a great job with our large puppy!!!”

“Daria is incredible with Lupo, he is always happy to see her and trusts her. We really appreciate the great care that Daria gives him every time she sees him! She’s also very kind, responsive, and easy to communicate with. I cannot thank her enough for all her help!”

Emily A.

“Justine was great! My pups are usually pretty skiddish but they got comfortable with her pretty quickly which put me at ease. She was very patient with my high anxiety pup and had no problem walking with her. I'm looking forward to booking her again!”

About: Hi! I’m Ryanne, a neuroscience & pre-med student at American University, currently home for the summer with a fully flexible schedule, meaning your pets get my undivided time and attention! I’ve been pet sitting since high school, so I bring years of hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, and even koi fish for neighbors and family friends. I currently have two small dogs of my own (a cocker spaniel and a shih tzu mix), so I truly understand how much your fur babies mean to you. I’m known for my calm, nurturing energy, which helps anxious or shy pets feel safe and comfortable quickly. As a future healthcare professional working toward my CCMA license, I approach every pet’s care with the same attention to detail and compassion I bring to my studies. Whether it’s a drop-in visit, dog walk, or house sit, I treat every pet like my own! I am currently home from college and completing a self-paced CCMA course, which allows me a very flexible daily schedule! I typically start my day around 8:00 AM, making me available for early morning feedings and play sessions. Because my studies are online and flexible, I can easily drop by throughout the day or evening to ensure your pet has consistent company and care. Whether you need a standard routine or specific visit times, I can easily integrate your pet’s needs into my daily workflow. When caring for pets in a client's home, I prioritize safety and maintaining their established routine to minimize stress. I am very detail-oriented with instructions regarding feeding, medication, and home security. I make sure all doors and windows are secure during every visit and provide regular photo updates so you can see your pet is happy and safe. My goal is to treat your home with the utmost respect while giving your pet the same attentive, loving care I would give my own.

About: For the past few years, I’ve been caring for dogs for friends, family, and now my own 3-year-old Cocker Spaniel, who I’ve raised and trained since he was a puppy. Through this experience, I’ve learned how important consistency, patience, and understanding a dog’s behavior truly are. I’m experienced with daily walks, potty breaks, playtime, feeding routines, basic command training, and behavior-focused care. I pay close attention to each dog’s personality and comfort level to make sure they feel safe, relaxed, and loved while in my care. I truly enjoy being around dogs and treat every pup like they’re my own. Your dog’s safety, happiness, and comfort will always be my top priority. have a flexible schedule and am generally available after 9:00 AM, but I’m always happy to work with your schedule if earlier care is needed. I’ll do my best to accommodate what works best for you and your pup to make the experience as easy and stress-free as possible. Your dog’s comfort, safety, and well-being will always be my top priority. 🐾 I live in a pet-friendly apartment with my own sweet furry baby, so your pup will have company and care! There are several parks nearby, along with plenty of grassy areas right around my building—perfect for fun and relaxing walks. If needed, I can also safely crate your dog based on your preferences and their routine. I’m committed to creating a comfortable and safe environment where your pup feels right at home.

“Highly recommend Mindy for looking after your fur babies! She’s detail oriented, great about following routines, and genuinely loves animals. Whenever we leave our cat and dog at home with her, I trust that she’s going to look after them as if they’re her own. Thanks Mindy (:”

About: I’ve always had pets of my own and have been caring for animals for family, friends, and neighbors for as long as I can remember. I’m experienced with kittens, adult pets, and senior or medically complex animals, including providing around-the-clock hospice care for my own beloved cat after his ataxia diagnosis. I currently share my home with Leon, my one-year-old cat, and Chicken, my 26+ year-old African Grey parrot—both rescues (Chicken was found abandoned and taken in) and very loved. I love caring for pets—cats, dogs, and birds of all types and sizes—and I’m happy to welcome other small animals too, just let me know! I treat every pet with patience, attention, and affection, and I’m happy to provide updates and photos for peace of mind. I work from home and my schedule is flexible. My goal is always to schedule any services based on the needs of you and your pet(s). I will always follow any instructions on how you prefer your pet to be cared for. Otherwise, I will always care for them in the safest and healthiest way available. The same way I care for my own pets. Leon is an indoor kitty with unlimited access to fresh air and sunshine from his lounging cots attached to our large windows. He loves his wet food, and his meals are on a “flexible” schedule, and no all day grazing. He receives lots of playtime with his humans and more independently. Of course, he gets brushed, not always with a happy purr, but he gets as much as he will tolerate.

“I would HIGHLY recommend Neha as a dog walker. She is trustworthy, professional, respectful, and understanding. I was away from home and my original dog walker was not able to take my dogs out as planned. So I was scrambling to find a replacement. Of course the anxiety of having someone inside my house that I’ve never met in person was a tiny nerve wracking. But Neha made the whole process very comfortable AND it was almost midnight and she STILL went because she knew the situation and did not want my dogs to not have been walked. My dogs do not go poo or pee inside the apartment so they were really excited when they seen her!!!”

About: I have hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, from newborn puppies to high-energy adult breeds. I helped care for my cousin’s six dogs from the time they were born, giving me early experience with puppy routines, patience, and consistency during important developmental stages. I recently adopted a husky mix and actively follow a structured training plan that includes potty training, consistent daily walks, and learning extra commands. This has helped me develop strong skills in managing high-energy dogs, maintaining routines, and providing both physical and mental stimulation. I’m attentive to proper feeding, food preparation, and allergy awareness, and I always follow each dog’s specific needs. I genuinely love dogs and enjoy their energy—whether that means playtime, training reinforcement, or calm companionship. Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I currently work part time, which gives me plenty of availability for pet sitting, drop-ins, and walks. I’m flexible with scheduling, and if you need a specific day or time, I’m happy to work with you to accommodate your needs. I prioritize consistency, reliability, and making sure each pet gets the time and attention they deserve. I care for pets based on their individual routines and comfort levels. In my home, pets receive structured feeding schedules, regular potty breaks, consistent walks, and dedicated playtime. If your dog is friendly, I do have a dog of my own who would love a new friend, but I always introduce pets slowly and safely. In a client’s home, I follow your pet’s established routine closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special instructions. My goal is to keep pets comfortable, happy, and stress-free by maintaining familiarity and providing attentive, loving care.
