“Olivia is a great dog walker! She genuinely cares for the pets and makes sure they're taken care of before she leaves them. My Daisy looked forward to her daily visits and got so excited to see her open the door to greet her. Would definitely reach out to Olivia again for future services. Daisy will be so happy to see her again!”

About: I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities for over 10 years, including my own dog, so I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet. Friends and family regularly rely on me for boarding, walks, and overnight care. I’m attentive, patient, and make sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m also familiar with feeding routines, basic training, and handling different energy levels. I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to give your pet plenty of attention, playtime, and care throughout the day. I’m available for boarding on both weekdays and weekends, and I can adjust to your pet’s routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I provide a safe, clean, and calm environment where your pet will be treated like part of the family. I have experience caring for dogs in a home setting and always prioritize supervision, routine, and comfort. I can accommodate crate training if needed and will follow your pet’s usual schedule as closely as possible. I also provide regular updates so you feel confident and at ease while you’re away.

“Daria is very nice, communicative, and friendly. My dog liked her immediately. She went above and beyond to take care of my dog. I would definitely use her services again.”

“Emily is incredible! She has been walking our 2 (big) dogs for about 2 weeks now and the boys are loving the walks. Emily is very alert to all their needs and is even helping to train them along the way. Booking with Emily was super easy and she always responds quickly to any/all messages. I would definitely recommend her services! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

About: I’ve been caring for animals for over 15 years, both my own and those of family and friends. I’m comfortable with cats and dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments, including pets with specific routines or extra care needs. What sets me apart is the level of attention and care I’m able to provide. I’m flexible, reliable, and don’t have other major obligations, which means your pet will receive my full, undivided attention while they’re with me. I live in a safe, pet-friendly neighborhood in Walnut Creek in a one-story home with a gated backyard and grass, perfect for playtime and relaxation. I also enjoy taking dogs on walks around the neighborhood to keep them active and happy. You can expect a calm, loving, and attentive environment where your pet will be treated like family. My goal is to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your pet! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, as I currently have full availability and no other work obligations. This allows me to be fully present and attentive, giving each pet the time, care, and consistency they deserve. I’m available most days of the week and can easily accommodate different schedules, routines, and last-minute needs. I’m happy to care for pets both in my home and in my client’s home, depending on your needs. In a client’s home, I make sure to maintain your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. This includes feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, and giving them companionship so they feel comfortable while you’re away. I’m attentive to each pet’s individual personality and needs, whether that means active play and exercise or a more calm, gentle approach for pets who prefer a quieter environment. I’m also happy to follow any specific instructions, including feeding schedules, medications, or special care routines. If caring for pets in my home, they’ll be in a safe, clean, and pet-friendly environment with plenty of attention and supervision throughout the day. I have a fenced backyard with grass, which provides a secure space for dogs to play, explore, and get fresh air. My goal is to make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for, while also giving owners peace of mind knowing their pet is in reliable and loving hands.

“First meeting with our “pup” and he enjoyed his walk, treats and belly rub.”

About: I’ve literally never lived without a pet — cats and dogs have been part of my life since childhood, and caring for them feels second nature. I offer thoughtful cat care and reliable dog walks, with an approach that’s calm, observant, and tailored to each pet’s personality. I know cats need patience and routine 😌, while many dogs thrive on consistent walks and positive energy. My goal is simple: you feel relaxed while you’re away, and your pet feels safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for. I currently work from home and can bring my laptop with me if need be but I also have plenty of time in between my calls/tasks to dedicate time to the care of your pet :) I have time and I’d love to do it spending time with your pets. I show up ready to give your pets calm, attentive care — feeding, fresh water, litter boxes, walks, and playtime as they like it. I let cats lead the interaction and follow dogs’ routines, making sure everyone feels safe, comfortable, and happy. I send updates (and photos!) so you can relax knowing your furry friend is in good hands.

“My German Shepard absolutely loves Katja. Katja is just amazing with him. He waits patiently at the door for her to show up to take him on walks every single time. It’s super adorable! Katja is so kind, fun and responsible. We love her and feel so lucky to have found her.”

I am skilled in training puppies and providing gentle care for the elderly :) Can teach your pup how to sit, lay down, wait, stay on their spot, and even how to shake your paws on it! c: I’m currently working part-time on the weekends, so I will have plenty of time to spend with your beloved. I am available for walks, drop-ins, and house sits all day on Mon-Wed; on Thu-Fri I am available from 8AM-3PM; Saturdays and Sundays can be negotiated :) When caring for your pet in your home I will maintain their exact daily routine, memorize home logistics, note the primary veterinarian info, respect any off-limit areas for the pet and myself, clean up if needed, care for the pet’s physical safety, and provide you with consistent photo or text updates as requested :)

“Very professional and easy to communicate with. Kelly was able to adjust walk time so my pup wouldn’t walk in too hot of weather. She also put up with all his silliness. Thank you!”

“Emily was great! I booked her day-of on a holiday weekend in a bind and she was super fast to respond, asked clarifying questions to make sure things went smoothly, and then sent lots of pics and reported back on how things went. She even stayed over a few minutes to make sure our dog went potty which was much appreciated. We will definitely use her again for dog walking!”
