Dog Walking Whitney

About: Animals have always been a big part of my life. While living in Australia, I spent two months walking and house sitting an Alaskan Malamute, which taught me a lot about handling large, high-energy dogs with care and confidence. I’ve also walked and cared for dogs belonging to friends and family, so I’m familiar with a variety of breeds and temperaments. On the feline side, I have three rescue cats of my own, all former strays, and I regularly foster kittens, so I’m experienced with cats of all ages; from bottle babies to seniors. I also love visiting cat sanctuaries just to spend time with the kitties. Whether it’s dogs or cats, I’m passionate about giving animals the love, attention, and respect they deserve. Pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine because my schedule is currently wide open. I'm in between career paths right now, which gives me the flexibility and time to fully dedicate myself to the pets I care for. Whether it's early morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening visits, I can easily adapt to your pet’s schedule and needs. This also means I’m available for last-minute bookings and longer stays when needed. Caring for animals brings me a lot of joy, and I love being able to make it a meaningful part of my daily life. When I care for pets in a client’s home, my top priority is to ensure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved; just as they would if you were home. During house sitting, I stay in your home and closely follow your pet’s usual routine, whether that includes feeding, medication, walks, playtime, or quiet companionship. I also keep your home clean, secure, and tidy, watering plants if needed, and making sure everything is just as you left it. For drop-in visits, I provide personalized care and attention, including feeding, fresh water, cleaning litter boxes or backyard potty breaks, administering medications when required, and spending quality time playing or cuddling. Whatever your pet needs to feel relaxed and cared for while you're away. When it comes to dog walking, safety is always my number one priority. I use secure harnesses or leashes, avoid busy or high-traffic areas, stay alert to other animals and potential distractions, and tailor each walk to your dog’s pace and energy level. I never walk dogs off-leash and always ensure they’re hydrated and comfortable before and after each outing. Plus, I send regular updates so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for.

“Great job. Flexible and understanding with timing.”

About: I’ve always been an animal lover and have cared for pets for family, friends, and neighbors. From energetic puppies to senior pets who need extra patience, I’m comfortable adapting to each pet’s personality. I make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and love so they feel happy and secure. I’m located less than a mile from home with a flexible schedule, so I can easily stop by throughout the day to make sure your pet is doing great. Even though I live in an apartment complex, home has plenty of space and surrounded by beautiful parks & trails to keep pet happy and active

“I can't recommend Catarina enough. She's incredibly conscientious — always on time, always communicative, and it's clear she genuinely cares about the dogs she walks. My dog Hazel absolutely adores her, which says everything. If you want someone reliable, dependable, and truly great with animals, look no further.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs & cats before for friends and family, I also take care of my own! They’re my whole world! Your fur babies are my top priority I currently work at Sutter Health 4-5 days a week, I am able to care for your fur babies before & after work. I’m almost always available weekends 24/7! I will always make sure there are no windows / doors open or unlocked so your pets cannot get out. Along with making sure no food is accessible for them to get into easily.

About: My family has always had pets whether that was a cat, a dog, guinea pigs, chickens, a sugar-glider, etc. Right now, my family has three dogs (whippet, Silken Windhound, and a greyhound) so I’m pretty comfortable with different size dogs too! I’ve pet sat for my cousins on several occasions and am confident I can take care of your pets! I am currently saving money before I start school so I am usually available most of the week! I am looking for some gigs over the summer! I am more than happy to come over and take care of your pets overnight if needed and will do my absolute best to keep your place clean and tidy.

“Mary was great with my dogs. She was on time every morning and they came home happy. She was all we could hope for with safety being a priority!”

About: I've had a dog my whole life! I had a German Shepard when I was a kid, and now we have two more German Shepherds. We have the standard shepherd, she is 4 years old, and her name is Novie! Then we have a 1-year-old German Shepherd/Great Pyrenees mix, and her name is Cookie! I have just the basic training skills, such as loose/tight leash walks, sit, down/lay, stay/wait, leave it/drop it, come, paw, crate training, etc. I have absolutely no problems or issues administering medications, oral only, but I can be taught! I can provide patient care for elderly dogs and provide any extra assistance that may be needed to be accommodated. I can provide baths, tooth brushing, and nail clipping. Another thing I can do is assure your dog will have safe and secure walks, and timely, loving care for your pets, because they're family too! I'm currently on my summer break from college until mid-August, so I have completely open availability. Mornings, afternoons, and evenings work just fine for me. I will not be providing care for your pets in my home, but I am more than happy to visit the pets' home multiple times a day if needed.

About: I’ve owned cats for a few years and have dog sat for family, friends, and neighbors, giving me a good understanding of different pet personalities and needs. What sets me apart is my patient and caring approach—I’m comfortable with playful puppies as well as senior pets who need extra attention. I treat every pet like family, making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily and weekly schedule. I’m flexible and can dedicate focused time for walks, play, and feeding. Whether it’s regular visits during the day or overnight stays, I prioritize consistency and attention to keep pets comfortable and happy. I’m reliable and available to adjust to your pet’s unique routine as needed. When caring for pets, whether in my home or yours, their safety and comfort are my top priorities. I create a calm, clean, and secure environment where pets feel relaxed and loved. I follow all instructions carefully—from feeding schedules to medication—and keep a close eye on their behavior and needs. I’m respectful of your home and ensure everything stays tidy and safe. Building trust with both pets and their owners is important to me, and I’m always available to provide updates and communicate openly.

“I couldn't be more pleased with Benjamin's exceptional dog walking services. He walked my beloved dog, Ty Chi, for a week twice a day, and the care and attention he provides are truly outstanding. From the very first walk, it was evident that Benjamin has a genuine passion for dogs. He takes the time to understand my dog's unique needs and personality, ensuring that Ty Chi always feels comfortable and happy. Benjamin's care for details is remarkable—he meticulously follows all instructions regarding Ty Chi's specific needs. He even takes the time to update me with photos and notes after each walk, which I greatly appreciate. Punctuality is another one of Benjamin's strengths. He has never missed a scheduled walk and always arrives on time, ready to give Ty Chi the exercise and attention he needs. This reliability gives me peace of mind, knowing that my dog is in capable and trustworthy hands. What truly sets Benjamin apart is his attention to detail. He notices the little things that make a big difference, such as adjusting the leash to ensure Ty Chi's comfort to make the walk even more enjoyable. His thoughtful approach shows how much he cares about the dogs he walks. I highly recommend Benjamin to anyone in need of a dog walker who is not only professional and reliable but also genuinely cares about the well-being of your pet. Ty Chi and I are incredibly grateful for Benjamin's outstanding service and look forward to many more walks together!”

About: I've lived with a dog in the house since I was about seven years old and have watched several other dogs, so I'm used to their various shenanigans. I'll love your pups like they're my own, and I am in the habit of following your instructions very carefully, not just for the dogs' benefit, but for your peace of mind. I tend to pay very close attention to your fur babies, just so they don't get into any trouble. No chewing up any homework on my watch! I promise your pets will be just as happy with me as I am with them. I'm currently only working part-time, so I'll have plenty of time to watch your fur family! I will communicate my schedule to you before the first day to make sure there's no worry. I always take care to pay special attention to any specific instructions I'm given in order to provide better care to you and your pet. Medication? On top of it. Keep them away from the pool? Got it. Only short walks? Can do!
