Pet Sitting & Drop Ins in Lyon Street, Santa Ana, CA

“Tala is exactly what you want to find on Rover! Responsible, respectful and communicative. Took wonderful care of my cat, my home and my peace of mind while I was away! Extremely thorough with twice daily drop in updates, including adorable pictures, but most importantly confirming that she was flawlessly executing the instructions I had left. I will rebook with her every time, and genuinely believe my cat is looking forward to me leaving so he can spend more time with his new bestie! 😻🙏🏻🤩”

About: I am passionate about providing the best care for your dogs, whether it's during daily walks or while sitting. As a dog owner myself, I understand the importance of trust and reliability when it comes to your furry family members. With years of experience, I bring a unique approach to dog walking and sitting, featuring my certified therapy dog who joins me on select walks. Together, we ensure every pup enjoys a safe, fun, and enriching experience. I'm committed to keeping your dog’s well-being a priority, and with annual therapy dog handler certifications and ongoing training, you can rest assured that your dog is in expert hands. I specialize in pack walks, where every dog is part of a fun, social, and supportive group—perfect for pups who love to explore and interact with others in a safe, controlled environment. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily and weekly routine by ensuring that the dogs I care for are consistently given the attention, exercise, and love they deserve. Each day starts with a careful review of the individual needs of each dog in my care. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or one-on-one sitting sessions, I make sure that every pup has a balanced routine that fits their energy levels and personality. In addition to walking and sitting, I also stay on top of training and development, ensuring each dog is well-behaved and safe. My therapy dog, who is part of the pack walks, also helps create a calming and positive atmosphere, enhancing the overall experience for all the dogs involved. I am currently off for summer break as a collegiate athletic trainer. I am available at most days and times, including weekends. My top priorities are safety, trust, and a comfortable environment for both the animals and myself. Whether I’m caring for pets in my own home or in a client’s home, I take every measure to ensure that each dog feels secure, loved, and well-cared for. Safety: I ensure that all dogs in my care are supervised and are in safe, pet-friendly environments at all times. At my home, I have a fully secure yard and a designated space for indoor play. When walking in the neighborhood or at a park, I always use secure leashes and harnesses, and I am cautious of surroundings to avoid any potential hazards. I also have first-aid training and know how to handle any emergency situations that may arise. Trust: Trust is the foundation of any successful relationship with both pets and their owners. I maintain open and clear communication with pet owners and ensure that I follow their specific instructions for their pets. I also provide regular updates with pictures and videos to reassure clients that their pets are in good hands. Environment: Whether in my own home or a client’s, I create an environment that’s comfortable and enriching for pets. In my home, I provide a calm, clean, and pet-friendly space where dogs can relax, play, and feel at ease. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure their familiar surroundings are respected and maintained, and I adjust my care routine to fit the pet’s specific needs and preferences. Ultimately, my goal is to make each pet feel like part of the family, whether they’re in my home or theirs. I ensure every service I offer—whether it's walks, sitting, or pack walks—is done with the utmost care, attention, and respect for both the pets and their homes.
