Dog Walking In Northwood

“Cie did a great job with our dogs! We received a lot of great updates and clear communication, letting us know our pets were taken care of during their walk. We even got a ton of cute pictures and videos. Thank you, Cie for taking care of our dogs!”

Caitlin S.

“Zack has been walking my 7 year old and a bit aloof Shiba Inu routinely 4 days a week now for months. Zack is consistently communicative and is typically accommodating of any adjustments to my and my dogs schedule”

“Summer was amazing! Summer, walked my dog for an hour each day over the course of a week, and I couldn’t be happier with the care and attention provided. Summer was communicative, and treated my dog with genuine kindness. I really appreciated the daily updates and photos—great peace of mind while I was on vacation. Highly recommend and would absolutely book again!”

About: What sets me apart as a pet sitter is that I combine responsibility with genuine attentiveness to each dog’s individual personality and needs. I don’t just “watch” dogs — I actively engage with them to make sure they feel safe, stimulated, and loved while you’re away. I have experience caring for both puppies and senior dogs. With puppies, I pay great attention to how they feel and I’m very patient at caring for them. With senior dogs, I’m patient and attentive to mobility needs, medication schedules, slower walking pace, and comfort routines. I pay close attention to subtle behavior changes that may indicate discomfort. I’m also detail-oriented when it comes to feeding instructions, allergies, and household rules. Clean water, safe environments, and secure walks are always my priority. I provide regular updates with photos so you can feel reassured while you’re away. Most importantly, I treat every dog as if they were my own — with patience, affection, and respect for their unique temperament. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine because I’m currently home most of the time. This allows me to provide consistent supervision, frequent potty breaks, regular walks, and plenty of interaction throughout the day instead of leaving dogs alone for long periods. Since I have a flexible schedule, I can adapt to each dog’s needs — whether that means early morning walks, midday play sessions, feeding at specific times, or sticking closely to an established routine. Being home also allows me to monitor behavior closely and respond quickly if anything seems off. Because pet care would be a dedicated part of my day, I’m able to give dogs my full attention, ensuring they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for rather than just accommodated. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets, whether in my home or a client’s home. In my home, I maintain a clean, calm, and pet-safe environment. I remove potential hazards, keep doors and gates secured, and ensure all food and small objects are out of reach. Dogs have a comfortable resting area, constant access to fresh water, and structured playtime. I supervise interactions at all times and never leave pets unattended in unsafe situations. In a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all instructions carefully — including feeding schedules, medication, walking routes, house rules, and preferred routines. I double-check doors, gates, and leashes to ensure security. I’m attentive to behavior changes and will immediately communicate any concerns. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners feel reassured. I understand that trust is everything when someone leaves their pet in another person’s care. I treat every home respectfully and every pet as if they were my own — with patience, attentiveness, and responsibility.

About: Besides growing up with with dogs my whole life, I'm an aspiring physician applying to medical school. I have experience adapting and reacting to stressful situations. Very flexible, can work overnights and weekends! No problem with early mornings or late nights. Just looking for some extra cash while applying to medical school. Will send frequent updates and photos! I'm comfortable with working with all dog sizes. I plan to work in healthcare/patient care so it's imperative I make both owners and dogs comfortable.

About: I have been caring for my own pets and entrusted with the care of pets of friends and family since I was young. Everything from medical needs (injections and pills) to love and affection. My schedule is mostly wide open with a few personal obligations. I am happy to wake up early or stay up late to care for and play with your fur-baby. Just let me know what they need and what you need and we’re set. I am skilled in medical care for animals including injections and pills. I will gladly send photo and video updates regularly and any other information you would like. I will happily follow any and all instructions to help make sure you and your pets are happy.

“Liv and her mom were great. We had to add extra walks and feedings and they were happy to help. We came home to a happy puppy who was well cared for. We will definitely be using their services again.”

About: Hi, I’m youhua I’m someone who puts patience and care into every moment I spend with pets. For the past five years, I’ve often helped my friends look after their dogs and cats, so I’m very familiar with their routines, habits, and body language — I can easily tell when they’re hungry, anxious, or just want some love and playtime. I always arrive on time for every service, make sure each walk is safe and enjoyable, provide fresh water and clean-ups, and send plenty of photo and video updates so you can feel at ease even when you’re away. I live in the Northwood community in Irvine, surrounded by several beautiful parks that are perfect for daily walks. I have a gentle personality and a calm energy that helps soothe nervous pets, and I’m happy to adjust my routine to fit your pet’s schedule. I look forward to becoming a trusted temporary family member for you and your beloved furry friend. 🐾 I am usually at home. I go to the gym for an hour each time, and the rest of the time I am basically at home. I think I have a lot of time to take care of the dog. I have a fenced garden and I believe they will be safe in it. I also like to drink coffee in the sun in the garden, and I can play with them.

About: I've taken care of my friends' dogs for years and adopted my own puppy 3 years ago! I've learned a lot about dog training the past few years, including loose leash walking, clicker training, working on reactivity, recall training, and getting through the puppy and teenage phase! I am familiar with positive reinforcement training and balanced training and can help keep up any training you have been working on with your dog while I take care of them! I'm familiar with various collars - regular, prong, slip, gentle leaders, and harnesses. I'm currently taking a work hiatus from being a pharmacist! So I have flexible scheduling during the day & evenings to help take care of your pup! I'm typically at the ceramics studio on Fridays, but if you let me know 2 weeks in advance of the Friday you need me, I can make arrangements. I am here to help your pets feel as safe and happy as they can while you're away. Just let me know their normal routine (no matter how detailed) and I'm happy to keep it the same for them! I can help administer medications if needed, and can put together multi-step meals with toppers as well!

About: I specialize in cat drop in visits and understand that pets thrive on routine, calm handling, and trusted care in their own home. My approach is observant, patient, and detail-oriented, especially for shy, senior, or medically managed pets! During each visit, I make sure your pet is comfortable, their space stays clean, and their normal routine is respected. I’m attentive to subtle behavior changes, potty/ litter box habits, appetite, and overall demeanor, and I’ll let you know right away if something seems off. I provide thorough rover updates with photos, notes on eating, litter box use, and mood, so you can travel with confidence knowing your pet is well cared for. I’m happy to support: -single or multi-pet households -timed feedings and special instructions -oral medication and supplements -senior or shy pets who need a gentle presence If you’re looking for a reliable, low-stress l, pet-savvy-sitter, I’d love to set up a meet & greet!

Ideally, I’m popping in to your home to provide check in services, play, and attend to any other needs (food, water refresh, walking). Depending on extent of need I may be able to do weekends as well. I do have a full time remote job as well. I’m doing this in part because I enjoy caring for animals, and also to help cover some recent vet costs! Your Pet’s Safety Is My Priority! I focus on pet safety and comfort above all else. I am able to tailor my service according to the needs of you and your pet. Your Privacy: I understand the need for privacy and care when it comes to your home. I have no issue with remaining in designated areas or with cameras around common spaces. I will accommodate your comfort.

About: Hi, I’m Stefanie! I’ve been around dogs my whole life and have a 13-year-old poodle mix named Benny, so I know how important it is to feel comfortable and confident with the person caring for your pet. I’m reliable and genuinely love spending time with animals, whether that’s going for walks, playtime, feeding, or just keeping them company while you’re away. I also know how much updates matter, so I’ll always make sure to send photos and check-ins during our time together. I work from home and have a flexible schedule, which makes it easy for me to build time into my daily schedule to care for your pet even on short notice. I care for pets in a client’s home by following their usual routine so their pet feels comfortable and safe. I make sure they’re fed, walked, given fresh water, and get plenty of attention and care during visits. I’m also respectful of each client’s home, reliable with timing, and always provide updates and photos for peace of mind.

“Shelley always takes such good care of coco! Everytime he comes back from his walk he looks happier and naps like a baby!”

About: I cared for my two Chihuahuas for over 17 years, from when they were babies to their senior years. In 2022, we said goodbye and sent them to Rainbow Bridge. Since then, I have been a dog sitter for my friends, caring for their babies with the same love and dedication, while prioritizing safety and careful supervision at all times. I also completed a Veterinary Assistant program, which helps me better understand senior care and medication support. To ensure a calm and comfortable environment, I only care for one dog at a time unless they are from the same household. I stay home full time and try to minimize alone time as much as possible. I understand that being away from family can feel stressful for some dogs, and I focus on creating a calm, comfortable environment where they feel safe and loved. I stay with dogs overnight so they don't feel alone. I also provide regular updates with photos and videos so you can feel reassured while you are away. We live in a house with a patio in a quiet neighborhood. I take them for walks around the neighborhood several times a day and always make sure they are wearing secure leashes. Our home environment is calm and structured to help dogs feel safe and comfortable. My husband and two teenage sons also love dogs and understand the importance of being gentle and respectful with them.

“Great experience! Kristina was very caring , gentle with my dog and always on time. Highly recommend!”
