1. Lisbet A.

“Lisbet was fantastic! More than capable around dogs and super easy to work with. Our Gus can be a bit much with new people but he was no problem for Lisbet. She even asked about what type of training we do on walks and as we use a prong collar, it was really great that she has experience with those too. Would recommend her to anybody!”


2. Jessica R.

“Jessica was a lifesaver, I normally work from home but needed to be in office for a week unexpectedly and needed a daytime walk for our dog Tuula. Jessica responded immediately and stopped by to meet Tuula and get instructions on the walk. She arrived every day in a timely way and took really good care of Tuula. Very communicative and was not afraid to ask for additional clarification on anything. Will use her again when the need arises!”

“carissa was so sweet with my Picasso he absolutely ADORES her. she went as far as to update me with photos and make him some homemade pumpkin treats which he finished in seconds.”


6. Natasha M.
“Natasha regularly dog sits my 9-year-old cairn terrier/maltese mix. I always rest easy on vacation knowing that he is in good hands. She takes great care of him despite his persnickety personality. I know he gets regular walks and that she can be counted on to feed him properly. She also is great at communicating, consistently checking in with photos and reports on how he is doing. I will be bringing him back to her next time I need a pet sitter.”

About: I've taken care of dogs for 10 years. Neighbors of mine have reported on how responsible and trustworthy they find me to be with keeping appointments being punctual and my consistency with their pets walks. I'm also very good with puppies. I also have 13 years of riding and caring for horses. Neighbors and friends can and have relied on me to bathe, groom, feed, give medicine and play with their puppies and senior dogs. I'm currently working minimum hours so I have time for your pets everyday from 11 am until 5 p.m. I am also available on the weekends. I have a fenced yard and a crate for a small size dog. No other animals here, so your pet is free to wander, explore and feel comfortable. My old dog's toys are still here, so there is a cooling pad and some blankets if you forget yours.


9. Lauren R.
“Lauren is one of the most carrying, attentive, and responsible people I know. She's great with all animals, including dogs, cats, and even guinea pigs! What sets her apart is her top-tier communication skills and her flexible work schedule. Would definitely recommend her for anyone looking for services on Rover.”

“Lizbeth is so amazing! Always on time and is great with updating me! I definitely look forward to keeping this schedule ☺️?”


11. Salem M.
About: I have been a pet parent of birds, turtles, fish, two cats, and currently my cat Cocoa and dog Bucky! My fur babies are both rescued from the street and/ or abusive homes, so I have experience with how to care for anxious animals. I learned to care for very small kittens as well as adult cats. I have experience with caring for small and large dogs, and I am always learning how to better care for each animal I meet! I can provide basic care for aquatic animals. I am also fluent in English and Spanish. Tengo experiencia cuidando pajaros, perros grandes o chicos, y cuidado basico de animales aquaticos. Apriendo como cuidar por gatos adultos y de chiquitos. Siempre estoy aprendiendo la manera mejor para cuidar cada animal! I work part time, with the intent of pet care becoming my full time job! I am able to travel within Orange County to client's homes for house sitting as well as walks or simple drop in visits. For house sitting, I will make sure to ask for any important medical/personal pet information I need to know beforehand (food, medicine, personality traits). For walks, as well as food or medicines, I will always set timers/reminders for a well structured daily routine for our animal friends! For walks or drop in visits I will be sure to bring or ask about treats, and bring toys and extra supplies.

About: I love animals and I have my own fur baby, a gentle giant cane corso! I follow instructions given from pawrent and like to see other pets personalities. I’m currently working part time and full time student. Sundays are my only free days and being around pets would be a great way to not worry about school or work! I listen and follow instructions! As a fur parent, I know how important it is to have structure and routine in a pets life. Can’t wait to meet them!

14. Abriana L.
“I’ve had the pleasure of working with Abriana for over a year, and I can’t recommend her enough. As a veterinary technician, she has a deep understanding of animal care, which gives me complete confidence that she will provide the safest, most loving care for any dog in her care. Her compassion for animals and her incredible work ethic make her a natural fit for dog walking. I've seen her go above and beyond for our pets, always making sure they’re comfortable, happy, and healthy. Not only is she highly skilled, but she also has an amazing, kind-hearted personality that shines through in every interaction. Any dog would be lucky to be in her care, and I know she’ll give every dog the attention and love they deserve! -Sarah, Veterinary Hospital Manager/Technician”


15. Jordan O.
About: As a pet sitter and dog lover, I have plenty of hands-on experience with my own playful 6-year-old pup, Wookie, who loves making new furry friends. I’m highly attentive and enjoy spending time outdoors, especially going on walks. Your pet will get the same level of love, care, and fun that I give my own! Pet care fits perfectly into my routine! I work 4 days a week, which allows me to offer dog walking services during weekdays. On weekends, I'm available for dog sitting, ensuring your pet gets plenty of attention and care while you're away. I balance my schedule to make sure your pup’s needs are always a priority! Whether your pet stays in my home or I care for them in yours, their comfort and happiness come first. In my home, they'll enjoy a safe, cozy space with a big fenced yard for plenty of playtime, as well as walks and attention from my playful pup, Wookie. If I come to your home, I’ll maintain their usual routine, offering familiar surroundings, lots of love, and attentive care. Either way, your pet will feel right at home!

19. Alfredo R.
About: I have been working with dogs for 3 years and have had dogs all my life. I teach basic obedience including loose leash walking. I understand some dogs may be difficult to work with and some people have hectic schedules sometimes, or maybe you just want your dog to get more exercise and stimulation while you’re at work. I can provide the solution. I’ll make sure your dog has a fun time AND learns how to walk nicely on a loose leash 👍 I have a very flexible schedule and am able to accommodate almost any scheduling needs. I am particular to morning walks during the week 👍 I provide the dogs in my care with quality time filled with engagement, fulfillment, and enrichment. I like to provide a structure that will teach a dog when and where it’s appropriate to have fun or be calm.




20. Clayton K.
“To Whom It May Concern: I have known Clayton for many years; he's my son. He is crazy about dogs! We have had numerous dogs over the years and Clayton's attention to their need for care, affection and exercise has always been strong. He recognizes their needs intuitively and applies the highest level of concern for their well being. A dog hanging out with Clayton is like spending a day with your best friend.”
