About: Hi! I have taken care of dogs almost my entire life. I got my first dog when I was 12 and from there on out I have always had at least one. I have always pet sit for family and friends when needed and now I’m looking forward to expanding my services to others. I live in a home and have a fenced in yard. I am used to giving medications if needed and can also care for senior dogs (I have one myself!) I have 2 dogs as of now so your dog will always have someone to play with 😊 I work from home so I am home nearly all day unless I have an errand to run I work from home so I am always home! I also have a backyard where they can run around whenever they want. I usually leave the door cracked for easy in/out access and I have a fully fenced in yard I have a fenced in yard and do frequent potty breaks! If your dog is crate trained I can keep them on whatever schedule they are used to at home. Throughout the years I’ve had to administer my fair share of medication so if your dog needs any medication I would be more than happy to administer! If they come to my home, they will always have a friend to play with since I have 2 dogs myself 🙂

“Another great visit with Parnian! She was extra patient with my crazy girl and gave her the perfect break in the middle of my long work day. Super grateful, Parnian was even able to manage the rainy weather AND get my crazy girl back in the crate at the end of their visit!”

“Jacquelin was great and friendly! She arrived on time, with a smile, and prepared to get started with her doggy bags and treats. My pup was a happy camper after his walk. She even gave a recommendation for a leash since I am on the search for one that makes sense four our needs. Would use her services agian and for sure recommend.”

About: I am both friendly and respectable to animals. Ive had the privilege to live with my families Lhasa apso for 12 years, so I am qualified with the basic necessities to care for any 4 legged friend. I am currently flexible with my time, so scheduling anything at the last minute is fine by me. I spend most of my time at a art studio with plenty of room and is pet friendly. I would to be aware of any medical or special needs that your pet my have before any hand off. If you need to drop off your dog with me, I have a studio space with plenty of room for any dog to run around.

About: I have worked as a vet assistant for 3 years with 15+ years of animal care experience. Experienced with dogs, cats, horses, and farm animals. Comfortable administering medications, injections, and providing specialized care. As a lifelong animal owner, I treat every pet like family and strive to provide dependable, loving care you can trust. 🐾 I am currently an online Clinical Psychology student and work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to provide attentive, consistent care throughout the day. Because I spend most of my time at home, I can accommodate pet sitting, drop-in visits, walks, feeding schedules, medication administration, and plenty of playtime, companionship, and supervision. As a veterinary assistant with extensive experience caring for dogs, cats, horses, and other animals, your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities. I am comfortable administering medications, monitoring health concerns, and following detailed care instructions. Whether in my home or yours, I provide a calm, clean, and loving environment with plenty of attention, exercise, enrichment, and affection to help pets feel safe and comfortable while you’re away.

About: What sets me apart is the level of care, patience, and attention I give to every pet. For the past five years, I've been a proud dog dad to my corgi, Juju, which has given me firsthand experience with the daily needs, routines, and personalities that make every dog unique. As a teacher, I am naturally patient, responsible, and detail-oriented. I understand the importance of consistency, clear communication, and building trust with both with pets and their owners. Whether it's sticking to feeding schedules, going on walks, providing playtime, or simply offering companionship, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I know how important it is to have peace of mind while you're away, and my goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved in my care. As a teacher currently on summer break, I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to pet care. I am available for overnight sitting Sunday through Thursday nights, as well as drop-in visits and dog walks from 7:00 AM to 8:00 PM. When caring for pets in a client's home, I do my best to maintain the routine they are already familiar with. I carefully follow feeding schedules, walking routines, medication instructions, and any other care preferences provided by the owner. During drop-in visits and house sitting, I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and companionship. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can have peace of mind knowing their pets are happy and well cared for.
About: All my life I've had dogs, cats, bunnies. etc... Currently an empty nester, I'm happy to lovingly care for your fur-babies from A-Z. Leave 🐶😸 with me and you'll be worry free. I'll attend to all of your beloved pets needs. As a retiree, I have plenty of time available. Advance bookings and cancelations are best but, I can often accommodate last minute bookings. Week days are preferable but, I'm flexible and can do weekends too. Short stays and long stays are options to assist you with your needs for your pets at my home or yours. I will be the kind and firm alpha ~ keeping your beloved pet safe, happy, and well tended to. Anybody can just watch your fur-baby, I care about your pet and pay attention to details. Also, I can help with special needs such as, puppies, seniors, handicaps, medications, bathing , some grooming, and a little training.
About: I’ve had pets of my own since I was a little girl and have always treated them with the love and respect that they deserve. I’ve raised a puppy of my own during COVID which was humbling but extremely rewarding as he is truly the best boy and now my best friend. I’ve been around dogs of all ages all my life and understand that each dog is different, each with their own personality, just like us humans. I have the patience it takes to understand dogs and know that it’s not always easy for them to express themselves, body language being a huge thing I look at. Owning an orange tabbycat of my own, I also have experience with understanding a cat’s needs and although they can be more skiddish, they seek and deserve just as much care and attention. I hope I have the opportunity to help you to take care of your pet in whatever way I can, and trust that they are under my safe and full supervision. I’m currently working full time but am available and eager to help you with your pets on afternoons, nights and weekends. Whatever your pet’s needs are, I’m happy to help. I live in Lake Forest and work full time in Mission Viejo, so I am willing to go anywhere in the South OC area to care for your fur babies! I have a small dog and cat of my own at home, so I can understand how much caution goes into owning and taking care of a pet. My priority is making pets feel comfortable and safe in a place where they can both have fun and relax, because we all deserve to feel that peace at home. As a pet parent, I always check that risky items are stored away so that there’s less room for error, that there’s always access to food and water (unless instructed otherwise of course!) and that fun toys are in reach!
“DanaRenne was great with our buddy! She was very attentive to Rex’s routine. She respected our home and was very communicative. This was the first week of her walking Rex and we feel very comfortable and happy with her service. Thank you DanaRenne! 🐶💗”

With your permission and depending on my schedule, we may head out for a walk to a nearby park. Throughout the day, dogs are supervised and let out into the backyard every 2–3 hours for potty breaks, playtime, and fresh air. I love providing lots of love and attention through backyard playtime, calm indoor and outdoor activities, head scratches, and belly rubs. Mealtimes are always kept consistent with your dog’s regular routine. I’m home most of the day and only step out occasionally for Rover walks, drop-in visits, or quick errands. During those times, dogs at home are supervised by my husband. Evenings are all about winding down with a walk to the park, dinner, final potty breaks, and calm relaxation before settling in comfortably for the night. You’ll receive photo and video updates each day, so you never miss a moment of your pup’s stay. 😊 Group Size & Temperaments It’s always nice to make new friends! I keep boarding and daycare groups small, usually four dogs or fewer at a time. Each group is thoughtfully booked based on size, energy level, and personality to provided a positive experience for everyone. It’s a wonderful way for your pup to meet new friends in a calm, supervised environment. 🛡️ Safety First Your pup’s safety is my top priority. I ’m trained in American Red Cross Cat & Dog First Aid. I’ve also completed my hands on trading and received my Pet Tech CPR & First Aid Certification, 2026 All walks are always leashed, we avoid interactions with other dogs, and our home is fully secured with locked gates, a two-layer front door, and in/outdoor security. Backyard play, sun bathing and potty breaks are always supervised.
About: Have 7 years experience watching dogs of all shapes and sizes. Neighbors and family have all gave their trust in me to watch their pets. Besides being an owner to a 8 year old 50 pound Labradoodle, I have experience with senior dogs and attending to their special needs or even those who still may get the occasional zoomies and need extra playtime and attention. I also am in school for Animal Science and am planning on going to Veterinary School, so you can feel confident in the fact that I truly have a passion for what I do and just want to make sure your dogs are safe and comfortable. Currently working part time so I am available mostly everyday. I am available Monday - Friday from whenever time needed. The weekend I am more busy but I can always adjust my schedule. When caring for your pet in your home, safety and security are my top priorities. I strictly follow all of your locking and security procedures to ensure your home is safe. I am highly mindful of door runners and know how to carefully enter and exit to prevent pets from slipping out. Because my schedule is incredibly open, I am available to spend maximum quality time with your pet. I will never leave them unattended for more than 2 to 3 hours at a time.During walks, your dog will always be on a secure, standard leash. I practice defensive walking, meaning I am always on the lookout for other dogs and will proactively steer clear of them to keep our walk stress-free. I also regularly check weather and pavement temperatures throughout the day to ensure the ground is never too hot for your dog's paws.In the rare event of an emergency, I know how to remain calm, professional, and resourceful. I will always collect your preferred vet information beforehand so I can act immediately to get your dog the proper care while keeping you fully informed.
“Logan was fantastic! She was so patient with our dog who was a little timid before walking. Logan is always very responsive and quick to get back to you. I would highly suggest her for any of your pets!”

About: I take care of 5 of my dogs back home and I love them with my whole heart. Walking them, feeding them, training them, you name it! I’m currently away from them right now, and while I’m away from them, I wanna share my love to other dogs because every pup deserves it! I currently have a part-time job and only one class at school so I have a lot of time to invest for your pups any day. Just let me know in advance and I will be at your service! :) Taking care of 5 dogs for 5 years has trained me how to properly deal with dogs. Whether they are big or small, I believe I can handle them with love and care.
About: I have more than 30 years of experience. I started dog-sitting for friends and family and through private referrals. I have cared for dogs of all ages. I will keep you updated with photos and messages. And for additional peace of mind, I have pet-sitter insurance (certificate available upon request). Doggy socializing (the dog park, Starbucks, restaurant patios, doggy play dates with their friends or your fur baby's other favorite hangout spot) are included during overnight stays with dog parents' permission of course. I work from home which allows me to give your fur babies the love and attention that you would want for them and that they deserve. My aim is to provide next level service and to help lessen the stress of being away from your fur baby. All I need is a place to crash (I don't mind sharing the bed with your dogs), the Wi-Fi password, and your doggos to hang out with. I’ll make sure they’re comfortable, safe, relaxed, doted on and well looked after while you’re away. Rest assured, during overnight bookings, your pets will be the only ones that I take care of. Meaning, I won't book any drop-ins or walks with other clients.

About: Since I was a kid, I would walk dogs with my mom everyday. I care about dogs because I’ve had a few of my own. I am on summer right now waiting to go to college, I have a part time job but it shouldn’t take away from this too much. I care for dogs so much because I’ve grown up with them and throughout my life I’ve always loved them. I respect other people’s homes as well as lives.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Laguna Woods
I highly recommend Gabriella!! She arrived right on time and was incredibly sweet from the moment she walked in. It’s always a relief to see your dog instantly warm up to someone, and it’s clear she has a natural gift with animals. My pup responded so well to her and came back happy and relaxed. I will absolutely be booking her again!

Chris has been amazing! We have a strong high energy Belgian Malinois who we needed an experienced walker to exercise. Chris was able to take immediate control over him and does a great job tiring him out. He takes Cono’s experience seriously, provides feedback and recommendations and most importantly Cono loves going with him. We are so thankful to have found Chris!

Thank you Caroline for your last minute help with feeding and walking our girl, Ziggy! It was great chatting with you as well! Thank you for your professionalism and loved reading Ziggy’s report card/photos. She sure has warmed up to you and is very comfortable around you. She loved seeing her bestie dog friends, Sammy and Stanley!! Thanks for the photos!!

I couldn’t be happier with the care my dog receives! From the very first walk, it was clear that Ashley has such a gentle touch and a natural way with dogs. Ashley handles my dog with both confidence and kindness, which immediately made me feel comfortable trusting her. My dog absolutely adores her and gets so excited every time she arrives for a walk. It’s obvious that she feels safe, relaxed, and genuinely happy in her care. That kind of bond and trust means everything to me as a pet parent. She also hosted my dog for a full week at her home, and the experience was wonderful. My dog settled in beautifully and clearly enjoyed her stay. It gave me such peace of mind knowing she was in a loving environment where she was comfortable, well cared for, and treated like family. I’m incredibly grateful to have found someone so reliable, attentive, and caring. I happily continue to use her every week for daily walks and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate dog walker.

It was my first time using Rover for my pet, Cory, and I truly appreciated the experience. Everything went exactly as I expected. Solmaz was on time and very kind to Cory. Even though it was the first time Cory met her, he immediately felt comfortable with her, listened to her instructions, and clearly enjoyed being around her. She also kindly gave Cory a complimentary wash, which was a very thoughtful gesture. I really appreciate her care and professionalism, and I would definitely recommend Solmaz.

Shannon was fantastic! Needed my Dobie fed and walked for 2 days while I was away 6am - 8pm. After an initial meet & greet, I felt Shannon was right for the job and she exceeded expectations. In addition to providing the necessary poop & pee report, she added additional commentary and plenty of photos. Bianca seemed happy each night when I returned home. I will definitely use Shannon again when needed.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Walking easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Walking. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 9,398 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Laguna Woods. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Laguna Woods. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Laguna Woods.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every walker on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Laguna Woods. On Rover:
- 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement walker.
