Dog Walkers in Ladera Ranch, CA

“Taylor was wonderful with my St. Bernard, Penny! Penny is a big girl, but I had no concerns at all about Taylor’s ability to care for her and spoil her like I do. Taylor takes the time to find out exactly what you need for your pet. She is sweet and very trustworthy. I will certainly book Taylor again to care for my pup in the future!”

“Laura took good care of our Coco while we were away for a week - walked and played with her, gave her food and medicine, also willing to get our mail and kept us up to date. Felt like our girl was in good hands!!”

About: I offer personalized care for dogs of all ages and needs, from energetic puppies to senior pups requiring extra TLC. With experience in basic puppy training and a strong focus on comfort and safety, I ensure every dog gets the attention they deserve, whether it's a playful walk or a calming cuddle session!" “Dog walking fits perfectly into my daily routine as I’m available Monday through Friday from 9 AM to 4 pm . This gives me the flexibility to dedicate my full attention to your dog, ensuring they get the exercise, love, and care they need during the day." Pet care is a natural part of my daily life. I have a fluffy French Bulldog named Henry, and we go on daily walks around Rancho Lake and visit the dog park. Henry loves meeting other dogs, so if your pup is looking for a walking buddy, I’d be happy to bring Henry along—with your permission, of course! "I take safety very seriously when walking your dog. I treat each dog like my own, ensuring they are always on a secure leash and closely monitored. I stay aware of my surroundings to avoid potential hazards and take extra precautions to make sure your dog is not only safe but also happy during our walks."

“We were fortunate that Joy was available on short notice to walk our dog for 2 days in a row. She was reliable, showing up on time, and did a great job of handling our energetic 60lb golden doodle. We highly recommend her!”

“We’ve been so grateful to have Hanna walking our dogs, Ellie and Coco! She’s been incredibly reliable and always responsive to messages, which gives us such peace of mind. Hanna shares the sweetest photos from their walks, and it’s clear our pups adore their time with her. The best part is knowing that Ellie and Coco are in such good hands — we couldn’t ask for a better dog walker!”

About: I’ve been pet sitting since I was 12 years old and have always had dogs in my life. I was raised caring for many dogs at a time, all with such distinct personalities and differing needs. When pet sitting for friends, relatives, and neighbors, I adjust to their dog’s behavior and understand what they need quickly. I’m able to understand and listen to a dog’s needs, while respecting their boundaries and making them feel comfortable. I just want your furry friend to feel safe and cared for which is what I do when I pet sit. Thank you for your consideration and I hope to pet sit your dog soon! I’m currently a full time student but my classes are mainly online so I’m able to pet sit everyday beside Monday and Wednesday before 3pm. This can vary depending on the week but, consistently, this is my schedule. When pet sitting in my clients home, I make sure to slowly introduce myself depending on your animals comfort level. If your dog or cat is skittish, I make sure to keep my distance at first, move to their level, and make it known that I am safe person by giving them treats or toys. Their boundaries set by their body language is what I follow in order to decide the best way to approach your dog or cat, making sure they can feel comfortable and safe.

“She’s awsome!”

About: Ever since I was young, I’ve been surrounded by animals and have taken care of them with deep love and responsibility. From tiny hamsters to loyal dogs and independent cats, I’ve grown up understanding the unique needs and personalities of each type of pet. Every animal that has come into my life has been more than just a companion—they’ve been a reminder of the trust and bond that exists between humans and the animals we choose to bring into our homes. I believe animals are sacred. Once we domesticated them, we took on a serious responsibility: to treat them with kindness, to understand their needs, and to provide them with safety, comfort, and affection. They depend on us completely, and in return, they give us unwavering loyalty, joy, and emotional support. Because of this, they deserve the very best care we can offer. It’s not just about feeding and walking them, it’s about valuing their lives as we would our own. My boys mean everything to me. Deniro, Yuki, and Mochi are the reason I get up some mornings. Deniro is my old man, taking on 15 years of age. He's a King Charles Spaniel and Terrier mix. Due to his age, Deniro developed cataracts. I'm very gentle and mindful of his condition. He requires more patience if I'm brushing him or walking him because of his poor eyesight and heightened senses. Deniro is also missing some teeth so I make sure his food is soft and well mixed. Yuki and Mochi are my Persian cats. Yuki is 5 years old and Mochi is 3 years old. Since they are Persian fur requires a lot of grooming. I comb them at least once a day. Besides taking care of my pets, I love spending time with them. On top of that, they love playing with each other. I think it's so important to keep your pets enriched so they don't get sad or depressed. It not only helps them stay active, but helps my mood as well! I love my boys :) I have 3 pets, so pet care fits into my daily life very easily. I don't view them as a responsibility, but more like companions or friends. I take care of them as if they were my own and give them the treatment I would want! There will be a mutual understanding of what to expect when we discuss our expectations. I'm very flexible, so if there is anything you would like me to do or NOT to do we can discuss that on a needed basis. I believe in respecting everyones home as I would respect my own. That would mean doing the dishes, cleaning up after myself, and of course our furry friends! Every home has their own rules, but my morals and respect for each client is unwaivering.

About: I can only remember life with a dog in it, my family has always had one since the day I was born. I am an active runner and walker so love getting outdoors with my family dog and friends dogs. My schedule changes weekly, but I am flexible depending on the week. I can walk mornings, afternoons, or in the evenings Monday-Friday and some weekends.
