“She’s so sweet and my pup loved her! Taylor sent plenty of pictures of their walk together and even gave her plenty of belly rubs. Would absolutely hire her again!”
2. Ilana F.
“BEST Dog Walker I’ve ever worked with- hands (paws) down! Ilana is organized and dependable. She got my little dog to trust and love her which in itself is a miracle. My neighbors told me how impressed they were that Ilana was walking the dogs without headphones to pay attention and steer clear of other dog interactions because they were new dogs for her. She’s caring, smart and also takes great pictures. We all love her and will continue to use her.”
3. Ashley D.
“Ashley is great! Super friendly and my dogs love her. I needed someone last minute to take care of my 2 dogs for a few days while I left for a work trip. Well a few days turned into a week a half but thankfully Ashley was able to accommodate me. I received daily pictures of my fur babies which really help put my mind at ease. She’s always reliable and we’ve had the pleasure of her help for a year now whenever we need her. Thank you Ashley. Love, Charlie and Bella 🐾”

About: ✨😻TAKING ON NEW CLIENTS😻🐶✨ Hi! :) My name is Maddy! I’m a currently a college student, but I have worked in the animal world for about 3 years now, taking care your beloved furry friends with qualified and trusted care. Whatever your pup or or pet needs from feeding, walking, boarding or your bestie just needs another friend while your away, I’ll make sure your pet gets the best care!

I have additional experience in the grooming industry, which helps me take care of your furry friend the best way I can. I’ve worked with every type of dog you can imagine from French Bulldogs to St. Bernard’s. I also have a decade (yes a decade) of experience volunteering with different charities helping kids with special needs, including the Special Olympics, so I enjoy working in different fields helping individuals. I hope you can trust me to take care of your best friend, I want them to have second home here :) Please message me for any questions or special needs, Thank you! I’m going to Saddleback College so my schedule is more than flexible and i’m here to work with you! I want to make sure your pet feels right at home and that means making your pet is taken care with quality and love :) I live in a non-smoking apartment with a spacious patio and a beautiful mile trail to the beach for walks, furry friends are allowed on the couch and on furniture to sleep if preferred. Let me know if you have any questions or concerns and i’m willing to work anything out :)

8. Megan D.
About: I've always grown up with many pets and I can't imagine life with out them! I've been pet sitting and house sitting since I was a teenager but I started doing it professionally 4 years ago. I have a special compassionate demeanor that pets and their owners always love. I'm very reliable; plus, I go above and beyond of what is expected of me! If you want me to clean your house and water your plans than I'm your girl! I am a remote part-timer so I'm available to take care of your pets any time of the day. I am also available to house sit anytime since I'm an entrepreneur and can bring my laptop anywhere there's wifi! I have 1 dog and a cat at home. I don't know how they will get along with your pet(s) so for safety reasons I'd prefer to watch your pets at your home.
9. Carly P.
About: Are you looking for a passionate and experienced dog walker who truly understands the needs of your furry friends? With years of experience as a pet owner, foster, adoption coordinator, and dog walker—especially with German Shepherds—I bring a wealth of knowledge and love for dogs. While I’ve stepped back from owning my own pets to focus on my growing family, I’m eager to share my dedication and care with your beloved companions. Let me be the one to provide them with the attention, exercise, and care they deserve while satisfying my own longing for furry cuddles. Hire me to give your pet the ultimate experience! Available daily with some limits on Sundays to attend my kids sporting events. I am also unavailable during school drop off/pickups. Flexible availability between 7:30am-7:30pm. I have a single story home with hard flooring, doggy door (which can stay locked), large fence yard and constant attention. I am also able to follow your established rules and respect your home.
10. Camille C.
“We just started having Camille walk our dog. Chamile is very easy going and patient with our dog. She is also very responsive with our last minute requests. We are really lucky we found her!”
11. riley w.
“Riley has a special place in her heart for all animals-she is an animal “whisperer”. She has a lifetime of experience taking care of her own animals ans her relative’s animals. Anyone who uses her to care for their pets is in good hands with Riley!”
12. Gayl H.
“Gayl was very friendly, very easy to work with. She showed up on time and was very communicative in letting us know what had transpired after each walk or visit. I would recommend Gayl to take care of your furry family member.”
13. Todd M.
“Todd has watched my cats and dogs when I traveled out of town for business or pleasure. He obviously loves animals and my animals loved him. Highly recommend!”
14. Sam T.
“Sam was so patient and thorough walking Lola. She can be a little pensive with new people, especially when I’m away, but Sam took the time to get Lola comfortable and then was able to have great walks and time with her. He wrote up detailed notes on each walk, so I felt she was well taken care of while I was far away. Wish I could hire Sam as a full time sub-in for Lola whenever I’m away.”
15. Esmeralda S.
About: Hi!! My name is Esmeralda but you can call me Esme 😊 I’m a recent graduate preparing to apply to grad school. I love dogs so much!! When I was in high school, my cousin would bring me along to Volunteer at The Ark of San Juan Animal Rescue over the weekends. That’s when I discovered my love for animals particularly dogs! Although, I don’t have any pets myself yet…Rover allows me to care and spend time with the cutest pets! I only like to care for one pet family at a time as it allows me to give them all my attention, care and comfort. I am more than happy to do a meet and greet prior to boarding to ensure you feel comfortable about me caring for your pet! Again, thank you for allowing me to spend time with someone so special to you! 😊💕 Currently, I do have a part time remote job but it’s only about 15 hours a week max since I mainly assist on a need basis. In my free time, I like to take some time to study, read and care for pets! I have a secured and fenced backyard, with plenty of backyard space to play with your pups. It’s safe and spacious for your pet to run around in. Additionally, before boarding, I ensure my home is puppy proofed so you can be sure your pet is 100% safe!
16. Christina D.
“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!!!!”
17. Elise R.
“Elise is truly the most amazing pet caregiver ever! She is so thorough and really wants to make sure she gets everything right. Our cat Coco is 22 and needs all the extra things including love, meds, and attention! Elise goes above and beyond to care for our cat. She even sends daily pictures of Coco so we know she’s doing okay! If you need a pet sitter, I HIGHLY recommend Elise!!”
18. Jimena W.
“Jimena did an excellent job! Very dependable and caring. Highly recommended.”
19. David C.
About: I love all living creatures and especially dogs, they're my spirit animal and I wouldn't have it any other way. I've worked with many different pets throughout the years and acquired lots of experience with all types of dogs. I grew up in Ecuador and there wasn't a day where a stray dog would be in need of attention or just a helping hand. I treat every dog like they're part of my family and as long as they're under my watch we'll be the best pals as we run free through the streets, enjoy the outdoors and bark our way into the sunset.
20. Amanda C.
About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was a child. I spent my summers on my uncles ranch working with my horses and dogs :) It fits in perfectly as currently I work from home and having to take care of more furry friends is the best way to make the ordinary much better. I will treat the pets as if they were my own and do exactly as the owner asks. I’m very diligent and a constant double checker so they are going to be safe with me.
