Dog Walking In West Oakland

About: My love for dogs is unmatched! I’m a junior in college who absolutely adores dogs and also happens to want to make money for tuition😂 For the summer : *for house sitting, Im available every day but on weekdays I would need to leave from 4:30-7 to go to work. Mon-Thurs: any time up until 3:30pm or after 7pm Fri, Sat, Sun : free all day I am super flexible! During the summer I have a very open schedule - so we can work around it more. Once I start school again I’ll update my availability! I will treat your animals with the care, love, and respect they deserve. Everything I do, I put 110% into, and I’ll make sure your pups feel loved! I always make sure to check if there’s ever notes from the client, get the important things done (like meds, food, necessary walks/bathroom) and then be able to focus on playtime or whatever your pup wants!

“Great communication, punctual, sweet with my dog, productive walks (poop & pee everytime!) and provides good updates ! And helps with last minute bookings when she can. Big fan of Abigayle!”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 16 and have years of hands-on experience with pets of all ages and personalities. I have a 1-year-old cat of my own, help care for my boyfriend’s two pitbulls, and my family has two shih tzus, so I’m very comfortable with both small and large breeds. I also regularly pet sit for neighborhood furry friends, and even while attending boarding school in Boston, I cared for local pets there as well. I am committed to your furry family members’ happiness, comfort, and well-being. I provide personalized care tailored to each pet’s unique needs, whether they’re an energetic puppy or a senior pet who needs extra patience and attention. My genuine love for animals and strong attention to detail show in everything I do—from keeping routines consistent to sending regular updates and photos—so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I’m a recent graduate currently working part-time (4-6 hour shifts) while studying for my personal training certification, so I have a flexible schedule with lots of free time. Pet care fits easily into my routine, and I can consistently handle feeding, walks, playtime, and cleaning tasks. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their normal routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I take care of feeding, fresh water, walks or litter box cleaning, and playtime based on the owner’s instructions. I also keep the home clean and provide updates so clients know their pet is safe and well cared for.

About: I have grown up caring big and small dogs of neighbors, friends, and family and will always let your dog take the lead when getting to know me. I am a very active person and love being able to give your furry friends their exercise with long walks, playing outside, or even runs! I will diligently follow any instructions/guidelines you set for me and will be sure to send thorough feedback and pictures for each visit. I’m currently working part-time, so my schedule varies a bit throughout the week. I will always be communicative about times I’m available to ensure your pets receive the best care. I consider myself an extremely thorough and reliable person and will follow all guidelines and instructions concerning your pets diligently. Important aspects of care, like diet, medication, and more will be followed accurately to ensure the health and safety of your pet.

About: I have taken care of animals in my hometown area since I was 10 and am very happy when interacting with pets. I started by walking dogs and eventually started taking care of pets overnight. I am taking college classes, so I have free time when I am not in class. Every day I have a break big enough between classes that would allow me to care for a pet. I am happy to learn how to care for a pet in its own home and to hear about the pet's preferences and needs in their home.

“Ella was so attentive to our sweet Natalie. I appreciated getting the report cards from her and knowing how our girl was doing. We will absolutely book with her again!”

About: I grew up surrounded by pets and have a lifelong love for dogs! I have experience dealing with both anxious and energetic dogs, as well as managing animals that frequently run away or get out. I have a 9-year-old Westie and I am experienced in administering her medication daily. I have also lived with other senior pups in the past. As a student, I will typically be available for walks weekends. However, my schedule is flexible and I am open to working out alternative arrangements that work best for you! As a lifelong Pittsburgh resident, I am very familiar with the local neighborhoods and know the best locations for walks! I love to stay active and am eager to spend more time outside with the dogs in my neighborhood.

“Ashley was so thoughtful in making sure we all--Clark included!--felt comfortable with her from the get-go, which I hugely appreciated. She was professional and kind, and when they went on a walk together, Clark came home happy and tired. I couldn't be more thrilled to have found Ashley!”

“Shannon is an absolute gem! As a newer dog owner and a very new member of Rover it’s been so lovely to have someone take the time to explain everything. I’m a fairly anxious dog parent lol and Shannon has reassured me at every step of the process. 10/10 would recommend!!!”

“We were in Pittsburgh for our wedding and were lucky enough to book with a few days notice. She was responsive and communicative. Very easy to book with and seemed capable of handling our awkward and anxious catahoula tripod.”

“Just had our first walk with Connor last night and it went great! My dog came back happy and relaxed. You can tell Connor is a natural with dogs-kind, attentive, and reliable. Looking forward to more walks!”

About: I have had a dog of my own for nine years and think I would be a great fit to take care of your animal. I know what to do in different situations with dogs and cats because I have babysat dogs and cats before. I have a lot of free time to properly take care of your animals. I am willing to spend more time and really make sure your satisfied with my visit. I spend time taking them for walks, grooming them, and just spending time with them. I love exercising my dog and making sure he gets treats for his good behavior.

About: I have had the pleasure of working as a pet care attendant for two separate boarding facilities over the course of 6 years! I also have a few years of experience working as a vet tech assistant! I have lots of experience with animals with different medical needs and have had dogs all my life! I currently am working short part time shifts only a few times a week. Other than that I am available to walk, feed, and play with any pets that need it! I have no other animals in my home, and live near plenty of green space as well as some dog parks for walks and play time!

“Jagger had a nice first walk/stroll with Lara. She communicated well and followed the tips we discussed at the meet and greet. He looks forward to their next walk. Thanks!”

About: I have my own animals who i absolutely love, I watch my neighbors dog 2 times a week and do feedings and walks. I also watch my friend’s dogs and cats every year for a month. I currently go to college, Mornings during Monday - Thursday are good and anytime after 3 work great with my schedule. On weekends anytime will fit in my schedule. I have a fenced in yard that my Dog gets to play in three times a day. we also go on walks in our neighborhood. My dog gets fed two times a day and plenty of cuddles!

About: I have had 3 dogs of my own! An Australian Cattle Dog Mix, a Basenji mix, and a working line large breed German Shepherd, which I helped train in obedience to be an SD. My dogs always had scheduled potty breaks and playtime. My job is to make sure your pet has the best time while keeping boundaries/respecting their space, ensuring their safety, and following your expectations of care. I am comfortable with any amount of shedding and the size of your pet. I can especially ease my interaction with pets that are scared and anxious, as through training my own dog, I am better at picking up the dog’s body language and only engage in physical contact if the pet’s body language consents. If you have an aggressive pet, please notify me beforehand. I do not guarantee I will agree to care for them, but I am interested in scheduling a first meeting if possible. Note: I do not drink/smoke, so your loved one will never be affected by second-hand smoke or inappropriate behavior. I am very available on the weekends and by the afternoon on weekdays. If you need morning care, please reach out and I will see if I can accommodate! My pets are routinely groomed and freshened. Everyone they come inside after heavy play, I clean their body from head to toe with pet friendly wipes. I use a brush that helps with shedding and smoothing out hair. Their teeth gets brushed every 2 weeks. I check their ears for dirt routinely and the inside of their paws for any injuries or cracking from dryness.
