Royce’s Dog Walking Service - Bakersfield, CA

As a dedicated dog walker, I provide reliable and personalized care for pets while their owners are away or busy. I make sure each dog gets the exercise, attention, and companionship they need, whether it’s a quick walk around the neighborhood or a longer outdoor adventure. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality and needs, ensuring their safety and comfort every step of the way. My goal is to help owners feel confident that their furry friends are in good hands. Choosing someone to care for your dog is a big decision, and I understand just how important it is to find someone you can trust completely. When you leave your dog in my care, you’re not just hiring a dog walker—you’re gaining a dependable, compassionate partner who treats your pet like family. I know that dogs are more than just animals—they’re loyal companions, beloved members of the family, and every dog I walk receives the same love, patience, and attention I’d give to my own. From the moment we meet, I take time to get to know your dog’s personality, preferences, energy level, and any special needs or routines they might have. Whether your pup is shy, playful, energetic, or a little nervous, I adapt my approach to make them feel comfortable and safe. My goal is to build trust—not just with you, but with your dog too—so that every walk becomes something they look forward to. I pay close attention to their behavior, body language, and overall well-being, always making sure they’re hydrated, calm, and happy. Safety is my top priority, so I use secure leashes, avoid risky situations, and keep a close eye on surroundings during every walk. I also send regular updates, including messages, photos, or videos, so you can see how your dog is doing in real-time and feel connected even when you’re away. I know how comforting it is to see your pet enjoying themselves with someone you can rely on. I never rush through a walk—instead, I treat every outing as an opportunity for your dog to enjoy fresh air, get healthy exercise, explore the world, and have fun. For dogs that prefer a slower pace or shorter walks, I respect their boundaries and adjust accordingly. For the more energetic ones, I make sure they get the activity they crave in a safe and structured way. I understand that each dog is unique, and I value the trust you place in me by allowing me to care for them. This isn’t just a job to me—it’s a passion. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, and I feel honored to be a part of their daily routine. If you ever have questions, special instructions, or just want to check in, I’m always available and happy to talk. I want you to feel completely at ease, knowing that your dog is not only well taken care of, but truly cared for. With me, your dog will be in good hands—treated with kindness, respect, and the individual attention they deserve, every single time. Please contact and book me on Petworks. Thank you.
