Dog Walking Whittier

About: Animals have always been family in my home. I had a Terrier who I cared for throughout every stage of life into their elderly years, which gave me experience with senior dog care, patience, and understanding changing needs as dogs age. I’ve also spent a lot of time around other family dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and anxiety needs. I understand that every dog has their own temperament and comfort level, and I make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for like part of the family. Whether a dog is playful and energetic or shy and anxious, I’m patient, attentive, and focused on creating a calm environment where they can feel comfortable. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work from home, so I am almost always home with the dogs. I absolutely love dogs and enjoy giving them attention and affection. My home is very family-oriented, and pets are treated like part of the family. I will be the primary caregiver at all times but there will be tons of love from my family as well. I have a fully enclosed fenced backyard where dogs can safely play, run around, and get fresh air. I also enjoy taking dogs on walks around Uptown or to local parks for exercise, stimulation, and fun. Since I spend most of my time at home, I am able to provide consistent care, potty breaks, playtime, cuddles, and a calm, loving environment where dogs can feel comfortable and cared for. I provide loving, attentive care for pets both in my home and in my clients’ homes. Since I work from home with a flexible schedule, I’m able to give pets plenty of attention, supervision, potty breaks, playtime, walks, and companionship throughout the day. In my home, pets are treated like family and have a safe, comfortable environment with access to our fully enclosed fenced backyard for exercise and outdoor time. I make sure every dog feels comfortable, secure, and cared for based on their individual personality and needs. I’m available for dog walks, drop-in visits, dog sitting, and boarding. Whether your dog is energetic, shy, anxious, or a senior needing extra patience, I focus on creating a calm, caring experience and keeping pet parents updated for peace of mind.

About: I have had a dog since i was 12 years old, the first dog i had was a chihuahua/miniature pinscher named Dinky. He was an older doggo but he was very active and could run super fast. A few years having Dinky I went to Mexico for a trip and came back with a 5 week old puppy named Ruby, she is a Small Griffon Basset Vendeen. I was able to potty train Ruby and still give attention to Dinky since he had gotten his teeth removed a bit before i got back, Dinky was a grumpy dog so at first he didn’t like Ruby but a few weeks later he got used to her and I trained her not to jump or push Dinky since he was a very small dog, he weighted just under 5 pounds and Ruby was 6 pounds almost 7. I have been my family’s pet sitter for about 4 years now and I feel very good knowing they have that trust with me and seeing how happy their pets react when they see me. All dogs have different personalities and I am always happy to adapt to it! I currently go to school twice a week so that gives me plenty of time for pet care! I am free any day to start pet sitting:) I try to spend time with them when they have energy and once they get tired I give them their space so that I don’t bother them. If the pet is at their home I let the pet smell me so they get comfortable and I try to stay in one spot or room so they have the option of going to another room when they want their own space and when they want attention or get comfortable enough then I try to make sure they have fun!

“I can tell Jessica genuinely cares about my baby Lucy, and that gives me peace of mind during her walk. I love the pictures she sends me and Lucy always looks so happy after her walks!”

About: Pets have been a part of our family for 20 plus years. Each one has been a crucial part of our lives, teaching us how to care for one another with grace and admiration. We have raised pets from puppies and kittens all way to seniors. From walking great danes to feeding little cats, our family can care for loved ones no matter what special attention they may need. Our fenced in yard has plenty of space for playful puppies while our home is located near a beautiful bike path for lovely evening walks. Your pet will receive all the attention and support they need so you can rest assured they are safe and cared for. I am currently a stay at home dad with plenty of time to care for and play with pets. Once the kids are off to school our day will be filled with unforgettable fun and excitement here in beautiful Whittier California. Whether your dog prefers inside or outside, our home is a perfect fit. Our fenced in backyard has plenty of space for running and play. After some exercise your pet can relax on our extra large dog bed or even take their spot on our couch. If your pet just needs an afternoon walk, I have everyday experience walking dogs of all sizes. Safety and awareness are my top priorities while taking your dog on a stroll.

About: Hi there! I'm a certified animal lover and lifelong dog person. 🐾 I've grown up with dogs my whole life, and these days my sidekick is my adorable 3-year-old Maltipoo, who keeps me on my toes and reminds me every day why I love caring for pups. I have experience with dogs of all ages—from energetic puppies to sweet senior companions—and I believe every dog deserves patience, kindness, and lots of love. My goal is to make every walk fun, enriching, and stress-free, while making sure your furry family member feels safe and cared for. Safety is always my top priority. I'm responsible, attentive, and always looking for opportunities to learn more about dog behavior, positive training techniques, and how to confidently handle dogs with different personalities and needs. Whether your pup loves long adventures, leisurely sniff walks, or just wants a friendly companion while you're away, I'd be honored to care for them like they're one of my own. I can't wait to meet you and your best friend! I work from home so I have the flexibility to walk your pups or check in any time. Just give me a day's notice and I will respond right away. Safety is my upmost priority. I always make sure to supervise my pups when they are outside. I believe it's very important to always be aware of my surroundings while walking, so I never look at my phone. I love to give lots of cuddles and positive reinforcement.

About: I was a Veterinary technician for 5 years in both a Veterinary Clinic setting and at the Humane society. I am currently a Veterinary student pursuing a doctorate of veterinary medicine. I am currently home for the summer and have a relatively open schedule for pet care, I am available for most of the week unless I have personal matters to attend. I am familiar with different leash equipment that will fit your preference and I will of course follow all instruction provided to guarantee care and comfort for your fur kids :)

About: I’ve lived with dogs my whole life and have five years of experience walking them. I know how important it is to make sure they get exercise, attention, and care while their owners are away. I also have a cat of my own, so taking care of animals is part of my everyday life. I’d love to help care for your pet like I do my own. I enjoy getting outside and making time for dog walks during the week. I’ll confirm my availability with you before booking so we can find a time that works for your dog’s routine. Before our first walk, I’ll ask about your dog’s routine, personality, and anything I should watch out for. I’ll keep them on a leash, pay attention to our surroundings, and send you an update with a photo after the walk.

“It was nice to know Abby was in good hands with Emily. She’s conscientious and maintained great communication while we were away. I would definitely recommend Emily!!”

About: Being around animals brings me a lot of joy. I love discovering their individual personalities because, just like people, every pet is different. When I meet an animal, I pay attention to their energy and let them show me what they need. Some want to play immediately, some are cautious, and some would rather observe from across the room for a while. I’m happy to meet them wherever they are rather than forcing interaction. My Shiba and Malamute have taught me plenty about that. My Malamute is a big-time attention seeker, while my Shiba prefers his personal space (although he occasionally gives in to a cuddle and then mysteriously ends up snoring next to me). 😂 I keep boarding intentionally small so your pet gets the attention they deserve in a calm home environment. I’m comfortable with puppies, seniors, energetic dogs, shy pets, and animals who need medication or extra patience. Most importantly, I’ll follow the care and routines you want for your pet. You know them best, and I want their stay to feel as comfortable and familiar as possible. Pet care is my full-time focus, so I have flexibility for early mornings, midday visits, overnights, and last-minute requests when available. I’m responsive and happy to work around your pet’s normal routine, including specific feeding, exercise, or medication schedules. My home is calm, non-smoking, and fully fenced. I have two dogs of my own, and I’m experienced with introducing and managing animals thoughtfully so everyone can feel comfortable. I keep boarding intentionally small and pay close attention to each pet’s temperament and needs. Client dogs stay leashed until we’re safely inside, and I don’t take them to dog parks. For house sitting, I treat your home with the same respect I would want for my own. I’ll follow your routines, care for your space, and make sure your pets get the same attention and consistency they’re used to.

About: I am a dog lover wanting to make sure your dogs are well taken care of while you are away. I love any type of dog big, small, fluffy or hairless. You name it. I enjoy meeting new dogs. I am currently working from home so I can tend to your dog whenever and wherever. I can do walks or hikes with them as well. I have a fully fenced backyard and can provide walks as well. I will let dogs sleep wherever you say they are most comfortable. I have one dog at home and she gets along with everyone and anyone.

About: I’ve been around and caring for dogs for 14 years and am a proud owner of two French Bulldogs, ages 14 and 4. Caring for dogs of different ages has taught me how to be patient, attentive, and responsive to each dog’s individual needs. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding, playtime, baths, and providing lots of love and attention. I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and comfort level, and I’ll treat your pet like my own. I’m currently working part time so I’ll have plenty of time to give your pets the attention and care they deserve. I’m available for walks and drop-ins, including weekends and select weekdays. I have a safe, pet-friendly home and two friendly French Bulldogs. I’m attentive to each pet’s routine and comfort, and I’ll always prioritize their safety and well-being.

“Bethany is obviously a dog lover! She was kind and gentle with our old dog Ben. I plan to ask her to take care of him again in the near future, and so should you!”

About: I’ve been caring for animals my entire life and grew up on a farm, where I was hands on with daily feeding, cleaning, health checks, and overall care for a wide range of animals. My experience goes beyond household pets and includes livestock and small animals, giving me a strong foundation in animal behavior, safety, and routine based care. Over the years, I’ve worked with and owned dogs, cats, rats, birds, reptiles, and aquatic species. This includes high experience lizards, tortoises and turtles, spiders, and large fish that require specific habitat setups, temperature control, and consistent maintenance. I’m comfortable following detailed care instructions for feeding schedules, enclosure cleaning, lighting and heating needs, and handling animals with very different temperaments and routines. My farm experience includes assisting with animal births, such as helping deliver piglets, as well as hatching and raising chickens from chicks. These experiences taught me how to stay calm, observant, and attentive to animals’ needs, especially in situations that require patience, cleanliness, and responsibility. I currently have two well-trained, energetic dogs of my own, so I understand the importance of consistency, structure, enrichment, and safety. I’m comfortable caring for puppies, high-energy dogs, seniors, and pets with unique personalities or established routines. I welcome pets of all kinds and genuinely enjoy learning each animal’s unique routine, preferences, and needs so they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I work part-time, which allows me to give your pet plenty of time, supervision, and individualized attention. I have a fully fenced yard and access to safe walking paths for exercise and enrichment. While I don’t keep crates on hand, I’m happy to use one if provided and will follow all care instructions exactly as requested. I provide calm, routine-based care and follow all instructions exactly as provided. I’m experienced with dogs, cats, exotics, and small animals, including habitat and specialized care needs. Safety, consistency, and clear communication are always my priority. I also have a fenced yard and access to many Mountain View hiking trails!

About: Hey there! I’m a lifelong animal lover who’s always had furry (and feathery!) companions by my side. From dogs and cats to parrots and fish, I’ve cared for them all! Right now, I’m the proud pet parent of Koko, my 10-year-old Rottweiler, and I’ve always had a soft spot for this loyal and loving breed. I’d love to provide the same care and attention to your pet—can’t wait to meet them! 🐾 My schedule is wide open and super flexible as I finish up school. I’d love to care for your pet whenever you need. Let’s connect! 🐾 I provide attentive, loving care tailored to each pet’s needs, including feeding, walks, playtime, and companionship, ensuring they feel safe, happy, and comfortable at all times.

About: I have had a dog since my first memory up until 3 years ago we lost our 3rd family dog. I have 3 years of experience walking dogs and about a year of training experience at a doggy daycare. I understand what pets need and the care they deserve from everyday operation at the facility I work at. I acquired a B.S. in Animal Science from Cal Poly Pomona to strengthen my understanding of animal health and welfare. I’m currently working towards my trainers certification, which is done at home at my own pace. I have an empty and free schedule to dedicate all my time to giving your best friend a positive experience!!! I have a 10 foot high fence and 8 foot surrounding barriers. My yard can accommodate 5-6 large dogs for them to run around and play comfortably. I also take dogs on 15-30 minute walks giving them opportunities to sniff and explore their environment just like they were meant to!

“Raiven was friendly and prompt and treated our fur baby with love! Would definitely book again.”

About: I've taken care of all kinds of dogs, big and small, young and old. I have a lot of energy for playful pups, along with patience for grey-faced older ones. I've changed diapers and administered medicine in various vessels (food, treats, orally). I'm happy to go on walks and to give cuddles! If you have a kitty, my love is just as strong, but I know when to give them their space if wanted or needed!

I am vigilant and attentive, especially in regards to any allergies such as bees.

About: I didn’t realize how much I love dogs until my best friend adopted a Pit Collie puppy in Texas. Ever since then, I’ve paid more attention to dogs on my runs, watched so many dog training videos, and frequently visit the animal shelter to give the dogs and cats there some TLC. I’d get a dog or cat of my own, but I’m still testing the waters to see what breed is best fit for me. I’d love to help you take care of your lovely dog. No dog is too rough or shy for me, as I’ve trained myself to read them, communicate with them, and understand them by consuming far too many videos and articles. Let me walk, play with, and hang out with your dog when you’re busy! I’ll be a good leader for them!
