Senior Dog Strolls and Gentle Care | Compassionate San Diego Pet Care

Tailored Midday Breaks for San Diego’s Golden Oldies

We know that as your dog ages, their needs change, but their love for the San Diego sunshine doesn’t. My Senior Dog Strolls are designed specifically for the older pup who moves a little slower but still deserves a daily dose of fresh air and mental stimulation. We trade the “power walk” for a patient, low-impact experience tailored to your dog’s mobility and comfort level.

• Patience-First Pacing: No rushing or pulling. We move at your dog’s preferred speed, allowing plenty of time for their favorite “sniffing spots” and gentle movement that keeps joints limber.
• Mobility Assistance: I’m trained to assist seniors, whether they need help navigating a curb, using a ramp, or require extra support for arthritic hips.
• Comfort & Health Checks: Every visit includes a wellness check. We monitor for signs of fatigue, ensure they stay hydrated in the San Diego heat, and can assist with specialized medication or senior-specific feeding routines.
• The “Golden Years” Report: You’ll receive a heartwarming update after every visit, including photos of their stroll and a detailed report on their energy levels and mobility.

Medication & Special Needs Support | Compassionate Care for Every Pup

At Balboa to the Bay Dog Walking LLC, I understand that many of my senior clients with chronic conditions require a little extra help to stay healthy and comfortable. I’m trained to handle the specific medical and mobility needs of your pets with the same care and precision you provide yourself. Dog medication administration available for all San Diego dogs, completely complimentary!

• Medication Administration: Whether it’s a midday dose of heart medication, a thyroid pill hidden in a treat, or essential joint supplements like Glucosamine, I ensure your dog stays on their schedule.
• Mobility Aid Assistance: I’m experienced in using various mobility tools, including “Help ‘Em Up” harnesses, rear-support slings, and doggy ramps to help your pup navigate stairs or curbs safely.
• Specialized Health Monitoring: For dogs with diabetes, kidney issues, or cognitive dysfunction (CCD), I keep a close eye on their behavior, water intake, and elimination habits, noting any changes in their daily “Golden Years” report.
• Post-Surgery Aftercare: If your dog is recovering from a procedure like a TPLO surgery or a dental, I offer restricted-movement “potty breaks” and strict adherence to your vet’s recovery protocols.

(while I am trained in medication administration, I am not a replacement for veterinary medical advice.)
