Dog Walkers in Woodside, CA

About: I'm an experienced dog owner with over 15 years of dog care experience. I have three dogs of my own and fostered 36 dogs throughout my childhood, giving me familiarity with dogs of all ages, temperaments, and needs. While I've been away at college, I've really missed spending time with my dogs and would love the opportunity to walk and care for yours! I am very available this summer for either regularly scheduled or one-off visits. I will be in the area and able to take care of your pets until late September. I am very attentive to detail and will be sure to follow all instructions. I can be easily reached by phone and will stay in regular contact as needed. I have experience working with anxious dogs (both my own and others I've cared for), and I am comfortable walking dogs who may not be friendly to other dogs. I cannot watch dogs at my house, but I am comfortable stopping by your home for visits.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for several years through friends, family, and neighbors. I am comfortable with dogs of different sizes, ages, and energy levels. I enjoy taking dogs on walks, playing with them, providing companionship, and following their regular feeding and care routines. I understand how important it is for pet owners to know their pets are safe and happy while they’re away, and I always treat every dog as if they were my own. I am dependable, responsible, and committed to providing attentive, loving care. As a college student home for summer with a flexible schedule, I have time throughout the week to provide attentive care for your pets. I can accommodate walks, drop-in visits, feeding schedules, playtime, and companionship. I understand that every pet has different needs, and I’m committed to making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. I’m also happy to provide updates and photos so you can have peace of mind. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow all care instructions, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise routines, and any special needs. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or mine, I provide a calm, clean, and supervised environment. I take the time to build trust with each pet, pay close attention to their behavior, and make sure they receive plenty of affection, exercise, and care. I also provide regular updates so you always know how your pet is doing.

About: My Pet Care Experience Growing up, I had the joy of sharing my life with a variety of pets, each teaching me something unique about responsibility, empathy, and companionship. Over the years, I’ve cared for hamsters, cats, dogs, fish, bunnies, and turtles, and every one of them left a lasting impact on me. As a child, my hamsters taught me patience and attentiveness through their delicate care needs. Feeding them the right diet and cleaning their habitat were my first lessons in responsibility. With dogs and cats, I learned the importance of building trust and providing unconditional love. They showed me how meaningful the bond between humans and animals can be. Bunnies and turtles required different forms of care, from maintaining specific diets to creating environments that matched their natural habitats. These experiences taught me how to adapt and tailor my care to meet the needs of each pet. Even caring for fish required a level of diligence, as maintaining a clean tank and balanced water conditions was essential for their well-being. Now, as an adult, I deeply appreciate how much these experiences shaped my understanding of what it means to care for animals. Pets aren’t just companions; they’re beings that rely on us for their health, happiness, and safety. This realization drives my dedication to providing the best care possible for my current and future pets. Whether it’s ensuring they receive proper nutrition, regular vet check-ups, or just spending quality time with them, I believe that having pets is both a privilege and a commitment. Caring for animals has not only made me more responsible but has also brought immense joy and fulfillment into my life. Pet care is an important part of my daily and weekly routine, and I always make time to ensure pets are happy and healthy. Currently, as a student on vacation, I have plenty of free time during the holidays to dedicate to their care, including playing with them, grooming, and keeping their spaces clean. During the semester, I usually have classes in the mornings, but my afternoons and evenings are free. This gives me a flexible schedule to provide attention, exercise, and care for the pets. I enjoy creating a balance between my responsibilities and spending quality time with them, as I believe this is key to building a strong bond and keeping them content. I am very responsible when it comes to caring for pets, whether in my home or my client’s home. I always prioritize building trust with the pet, creating a bond that ensures they feel safe and comfortable with me. The place where I live is fenced and quiet, making it a safe environment for pets. However, I understand that pets often feel more comfortable staying in their own home, surrounded by familiar smells and routines. For this reason, I am more than happy to care for them at their place if that’s preferred. Regardless of the location, I make sure to follow their specific routines, provide plenty of playtime and attention, and ensure their needs are met with love and care.

“Josh was amazing. He took great care of both my dogs. His communication was great and I felt really safe leaving both dogs in his care. I will absolutely be booking with him in the future.”

“She was absolutely wonderful with Carlos! Not only did she go above and beyond by spending extra time with him and taking a longer walk, but she also made sure he got plenty of playtime and attention. The photo updates were amazing and gave me so much peace of mind—he looked so happy! You can tell she genuinely cares. Will definitely book with Huei again!”

About: What sets me apart is the genuine one-on-one attention I give each pet, making sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for while you're away. I have been around dogs for most of my life and have been caring for them for about six years. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me with their pets, and I genuinely love getting to know each dog's unique personality. Whether a dog is energetic and playful or prefers a slower pace and lots of cuddles, I enjoy making them feel comfortable and cared for. I especially enjoy spending time with senior dogs and understand the extra patience and attention they sometimes need. I am currently a college student, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to pet care. I am available for walks, drop-in visits, and spending quality time with your pets throughout the week and most weekends. Caring for animals fits naturally into my routine because it is something I truly enjoy doing. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I do not take that responsibility lightly. I always follow your instructions carefully and do my best to keep your pet's routine consistent. Whether I am caring for them in your home or taking them on a walk, their safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I treat every pet the same way I would want someone to treat my own.

About: I’ve been a compassionate counselor/ caretaker for human children, and am taking a break to get back into caring for animal children instead! I have taken care of friends/ neighbors cats and dogs for around 4 years, but never through Rover. I am hoping to increase my work via this platform! I recently moved to the area, therefore I have a very flexible schedule and can meet the needs of your animal with whatever schedule works best for you. I am open to staying where you and your animal live if needed! I am flexible to either take your pet to my home or to stay near/ at your current residence. I am a quick learner and will ensure that I follow all expectations and guidelines when spending time with your pet at the home or elsewhere!

About: I’ve had a dog since I was a child who I took great care of, and I’ve also cared for friends and family’s dogs and cats many times in recent years. I am able to care for multiple animals at once - in the summer I house sat with a medium sized dog and two cats for a week long. I’m currently unemployed (searching for a job), so my availability is very open to care for pets! I’m available any time Monday-Friday, and weekends on occasion. When caring for pets I keep a close eye on them to ensure they don’t go anywhere in the house that they shouldn’t, make sure they’re eating as they should, play with them, and take them on walks.

“Cordigen has been wonderful at providing weekly visits for our puppy, Sammy, and our 8 year old dog, June. I can tell from the photos she sends that they have a great time with her on their 3x/week visits and really appreciate all the care she shows for them. Highly recommend!”

“Teagan was fantastic as usual, she took good care of our animals especially throughout a weekend heat wave and power outage, making sure the fans were on in our house and that they had plenty of fresh water. Thank goodness for her!”

Mary K.

“Julia was great! She was thoughtful and sweet with my pups and sent plenty of updates and photos of the dogs. I’ll definitely be using her again!”

“Gloria was very punctual and communicated extremely well with me. She was able to help me out last minute and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone to take care of their furry friends!”

“Chaarushena has been wonderful with our 8 year old dog who gets very anxious with new people. She’s patient, reliable, and clearly understands dogs well. Our dog took some time to warm up to her, but by the end of the visit was happy to go on her walk. Chaarushena has a calm, confident approach that we really appreciated. We’re would highly recommend her to anyone who needs help walking their pup!”

About: I have been cat and dog sitting since I was 16! I have experience walking and pet sitting for neighbor’s, friend’s and family’s animals. I also grew up with dogs so I am very comfortable with all ages and sizes of animals! I have experience volunteering at the Wisconsin Humane Society from college so I have formal dog walking training! I just finished a contract working at Stanford and have some extra time in my day now. I am big on taking my daily walks outside and any pet can join me! Other than exercising I spend most of my day doing work and reading being a couch potato. I always try to work with the pets routine and stay flexible. I am big on making the pets comfortable (usually with treats and floor time) around me. I like to spend time with pets in their home before taking them on walks or letting them out. I can follow any rules set and any training that needs to be enforced as well.

About: Hello, I am Chiara, I signed up here simply because I love spending time with dogs and I cannot think on a better way to earn some extras. I am open to every request. I can walk with your dog for the all 30 min/h, I can go for a run with them, I can bring them to a dog park to play and catch. I have experience with small dogs such as puddle, terrier, French bulldog, chihuahua mixes, and the bigger dog I took care of was a Labrador. I will make sure your dog is gonna come home tired and happy and with a good dose of love received! I am so looking forward on meeting some new lovely 4 paws friends!

About: I've taken care of small dogs and large dogs since I was in middle school. I enjoy playing with dogs, giving them lots of hugs and pets, and taking them on excursions, whether it be to the dog park, beach, or a scenic hiking trail. I work part-time from home so I am able to spend lots of time with the fur babies in my care. I love to take them out for fresh air and exercise, and give them lots of love, pets, and attention. I have a fenced, grassy backyard and a friendly labrador retriever named Sadie who is very sweet and playful and loves having other dogs to play with. We have a doggie door so the pups have day and night access to the backyard to run around and do their business. I can easily crate your dog if that is something you prefer.

“Miranda was wonderful she came over the day before to meet with our pup bc he can be skiddish around new people. I would recommend her to anyone needing walks in the area.”
