About: I have loved having dogs growing up and absolutely love taking care of them. I have had multiple dog/pet sitting/walking jobs and am very grateful for the experiences. When I was little, I made my own dog walking and washing business in my neighborhood out of my love for dogs. I also worked at a dog daycare and boarding center in San Luis Obispo for some time. It was one of the best jobs I’ve had. I am currently searching for a long term job, which means I have open availability for dog walking, drop in visits, and house sitting! I am unfortunately unavailable for boarding in my house at this time. I love caring for pets in all the ways I can, whether that be feeding, walking, playing catch, tug of war, bathing, and even being couch potato’s. Depending on how house trained the dogs are that stay at my home, I will typically gate off the carpeted area to ensure no accidents. If they are 100% house trained, they can explore all areas of the house. I also take into consideration how old and able they are to go up/down stairs and accommodate their needs to the best of my abilities. If I am caring for pets in my client’s home, I listen to the instructions provided and their pets’ daily routine so I am able to care for them the best way possible. One of the dogs that I grew up with (she passed away in December) was great with people, however she was extremely dog aggressive. I have years of experience handling her and her aggression and would be able to put my knowledge and etiquette to use if that is something that is needed.

“Brady absolutely loves his walks with Jay! He looks so happy when he gets picked up, his tail wags away as they go for walks. My pooch is a "hard walker", he pulls & and at times he has reactivity issues towards other dogs, but Jay seems to know how to handle him. They definitely have a connection! Jay also has an easy going personality & he's been trust worthy regarding the schedule. Super happy to have discovered Jay as Brady's dog walker!🐾😊”
“Christiana is absolutely amazing and 100% professional! She took care of my 6 year old German Shepard and he misses her everyday…She is the BEST! Get her if you can!!!!”
About: Hi, my name is Shelley, and I would love to care for your dog! I live in a 2br condo in Mission Viejo with my two dogs. I love taking my dogs on long walks and hikes all over Orange County. I work from home, meaning your pooch would rarely be alone. I was a veterinary technician throughout college and have had dogs my entire life, so you can rest assured your dogs would be safe and well taken care of when they stay with me! Why I love dog sitting I have been a dog lover since before I could speak! I have had my own dog since the age of 2. He lived for 19 years and I took him and my schnauzer with me to college because I couldn't stand being away from them! I currently have a Jack Russell Mix that I adopted from the Baja Animal Sanctuary, and she's the most precious little girl. I volunteered throughout high school at a veterinary clinic and eventually worked as a veterinary technician through college. I had planned on going to vet school after taking some time off from undergrad, but I found an amazing career opportunity and now get my animal fix by taking care of friends' dogs when they are out of town. Meet my pets I have a small Jack Russell Mix that is 14 years old. She is a sweetheart once you get to know her, but can be intimidated by other dogs. I also have a 3 year old, 60 lb mixed breed pandemic "puppy" that is attached to me at all times. Mookie loves just about every dog and will love playing with your dog. About my yard Small deck and enclosed back yard perfect for sunbathing, bird watching, and the occasional lizard chasing. My experience administering medication Yes, I have had years of experience administering medication from giving oral pills, treating ears with ear flushes, giving eye drops, vaccines, subcutaneous fluids...you name it! I currently work from home, so I am available to keep your dog company all day long! Midday walks to the park for a lunch break are my favorite! I have a fully fenced backyard for your dog to safely sunbathe and take as many potty breaks as he or she may need. Come say hi!
About: I’ve been a devoted cat parent for over 5 years, and I’m proud that my cat has always been healthy and happy under my care. I understand cats’ unique personalities and needs — from giving them space when they want it, to cuddles when they ask for it! Friends trust me to look after their cats because I pay close attention to their comfort, eating habits, and playtime. I’m patient, gentle, and always treat every kitty like my own. I currently work from home, so it’s easy for me to balance my time and give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. I love having cats around while I work — I make sure they’re comfortable, well-fed, and get lots of playtime and cuddles. Whether it’s sticking to their meal schedule, cleaning litter boxes regularly, or just keeping them company, I enjoy making pet care a natural, happy part of my daily routine. Each cat has a private room to ensure they have their own safe territory and feel comfortable. The room is fully equipped with everything they need for daily life — fresh water, food, clean litter, toys, and cozy spots to rest. There’s also a camera so you can check in anytime and see how your cat is doing. I keep the space clean, quiet, and stress-free, and I always take the time to make sure each cat feels secure, loved, and cared for like family.
About: Hi! I’m Tianna :) I’ve had animals in my home for all my life, from dogs and cats to ducks, chickens, guinea pigs, and even a pig. I have years of hands-on experience from taking care of my own animals as well as helping out friends and family. I am a student athlete who is very flexible and pays great attention to details, and great with communication. I understand every pet is unique and requires different needs. Anything from specific routines, someone patient and calm, or extra playtime! My goal is to make your pet feel safe and loved while you are away. Your pets comfort always comes first! I am currently on summer break looking for a summer job, so I have plenty of free time to take care of your cute fur babies! There is a lovely park right across from my place to walk and play with your fur babies, I could also walk them around your place just let me know what route to take. Anything you need, I will do my best to make it happen!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - El Toro
David took great care of our dogs. He takes plenty of pictures and gives us regular updates. One of our dogs is very reactive on leash and David was able provide training tips and guidance to correct the behavior. He went above and beyond by feeding our dogs too. He’s a gem!
Mengmeng was an absolute lifesaver! She was able to come on short notice, and I’m so grateful she could help us out. This was Kona’s very first experience with a dog walker, and Mengmeng was incredibly patient, gentle, and understanding with her. She took the time to make Kona feel comfortable and at ease, which meant so much to me. I would definitely recommend Mengmeng to anyone looking for a kind, reliable, and patient dog walker. Thank you so much, Mengmeng! 🐾❤️
Saeedeh (Lili) is amazing with Jasmine! Lili loves her as if she was her own dog, and Jasmine gets so excited when she sees her. I especially appreciate Lili’s rapid and consistent communication to make plans as well as sending all the videos and pictures. It makes me feel better when I am traveling or out of town knowing that Lili is watching Jazmine and that she is being well cared for. That peace of mind is priceless.
Angela knows how to put a dog at ease. This was her first time walking Brownie, who’s anxious and distrustful, she approached him gently and offer treats, a pro move that calmed Brownie. She knows how to handle a dog on a leash. My dog can react to strangers, including humans, and she handled him very well when we encountered other dogs on the walk. I highly recommend Angela for dog walking.
