“Yolanda was so good to Archie and Millie! She was communicative and sent pictures. She went above and beyond. They seemed very calm and happy in her presence. We've already booked for more walks. 🐶”
About: I’ve been a veterinary assistant going on 8 years now. I am comfortable caring for senior pets, administering medications, including injections and I don’t mind exotics. I am currently working so i will be able to work around schedules and my classes are online for now so I can definitely plan my classes around your pets’ schedule. In general, I believe all living beings deserve to be treated with love and respect. Therefore, I will make sure their bowls are clean, they have clean water, access to comfort and safety checks before I leave.
“I am so grateful to have found Ashley. She is incredibly caring, reliable, efficient, and loves to leave you looped in on the latest on your pupper. I had to leave for an unexpected family emergency and feel fortunate to have met her in a pinch! I plan on reaching out to Ashley again, I know my pup will appreciate her visits and awesome walks again! :)”
“Carolyn is great! She was always on time and friendly and took good care of Clover while also working on some things with him during their walks. I especially liked how she would play fetch with him as well as rollerblade alongside him!”
About: Hi, my name is Michelle. Over the years I’ve raised and trained many of my own pets and regularly dog sit for all of my family. I currently have one dog, a Rat Terrier named Memo. He is high energy but he's a happy boy and has the best temperament. For housesitting, please be advised that I will be bringing Memo to stay with me at your home. If you want to see more of my cutie, check out his bio. I’ve cared for dogs of all kinds, from playful puppies who need extra attention and playtime to older dogs who just need a slower pace and a little extra patience. I’m comfortable managing multiple dogs of all sizes. That includes 'pullers' and/or dog reactive from my experience walking dogs at shelters. Here are a few things I’m happy to help with: • Walks, playtime, and activities that keep your dog active and engaged • Puppy guidance and reinforcement of training routines if requested • Patient care for senior dogs or pets with special needs (including administering medications) • Flexible scheduling when possible • Pick up/Drop off within 5 miles of my house. (Main & Civic Center in Santa Ana) • Grooming (only the basics: bathing, drying, brushing.) Price depends on size and length of fur. Sorry, no nail trims. • Dependable care with the same love and attention I give my own dog. (Snuggling always included!) I'd love to schedule a meet-and-greet to meet you and your pet! I do project based work from home so I'm present and not tied down to a rigid schedule which means I have the time and flexibility to give your pet attention when needed. I have a Rat Terrier who gets a long with all dogs, he loves to play but is pretty respectful of dogs who are not into it. Dogs have free rein of my house. I spend a good amount of time with them outside in the yard, they are never let out without supervision.
About: I have experience caring for dogs through personal friendships and family obligations, and have also owned two dogs of my own; I have a strong affection for dogs and enjoy spending time with them. I am currently not working, which allows me to devote ample time to caring for your dog(s) and providing them with the love and attention they require while in my care. I reside in a secure apartment complex that features gated access, ensuring constant supervision for your pets during walks. Additionally, there is a spacious grassy area where they can freely run and play.
About: I’m an absolute pet person. Family and friends always ask me to sit for their pets and they don’t think twice or worry about it. My days need to be filled with enjoyment and fun. My availability will absolute work around weekends and we can always make weekdays work 🫶🏽 If you feel completely comfortable with me sitting your pet at your home I will completely respect and follow any and all rules made 😊
About: I’ve been around pets my whole life — caring for dogs and cats has always been second nature to me. At home, I have a 11 years old cat and a 3-year-old Golden Retriever, so I’m used to all kinds of personalities — from playful puppies to calm seniors. With over 10 years of experience, I know how important it is to follow your pet’s routine and keep them feeling safe and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, or giving medication when needed, I’ll make sure your furry friend is cared for like my own. ❤️ I work from home full-time and have a very flexible schedule, so I’m around most of the day to keep pets company. Whether it’s playtime with toys, cuddle breaks between work, or going out for walks, I love having furry friends as part of my daily routine. It’s easy for me to adjust my day around their needs — making sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and love. I live in a single family home where pets have plenty of space to play and relax. We have a secure fenced yard, perfect for safe outdoor time and fun walks. I also walk the dogs 3–4 times a day (they never get bored!) and always keep fresh water out, changing it twice daily. I have two friendly, social cats and a gentle Golden Retriever who loves making new friends — they’re all very dog-friendly and happy to keep your pet company. I don’t usually use crates for my own pets since they’re free to roam and feel comfortable at home, but I can absolutely crate your pet if that’s part of their routine or helps them feel safe. My goal is to make your pet feel at ease and cared for, just like they would at home. 🐾💛
“Thanks Rebecca! Rebecca did such an amazing job! Rocket and Benji misses her already! Love all of the detailed info from the walk and how you took care of them by wetting the dog run area and giving them extra water.”
About: I'm ready for hot girl walks for the time and I hope your pup is too. I've grown up and raised dogs of my own, but being in California for school meant leaving him (Butter) behind temporarily. My heart is empty and open to welcome and love yours. I am a second year PA student so most of my schedule is made by me, which will allow me to be flexible and have ample time to feed, walk, and play with your best friend! I treat every pet like my own and aim to create a safe, cozy, and fun environment. I follow routines, keep things pet-safe, and make sure each pet gets the attention and playtime they need. You’ll also get updates along the way and as many additional ones you'd like!
About: I’m a dependable and strong woman who’s comfortable with bigger dogs, but gentle and patient with smaller ones. I’m not a professional trainer, but I pay attention to dogs and can usually tell when they’re feeling scared, stressed, or unsure. I also stay aware of my surroundings on walks to help keep every dog safe. I do work a full time M-F 9-5 and have a dog of my own. So I’m only available weekends for now I will follow any instruction, no matter how unusual, lol. Feeding, walks, routines, if it’s leaving the tv or music on or warm up a heat pad, etc, whatever you need—so your pet feels comfortable and taken care of.
About: Growing up with two big dogs taught me valuable skills in handling and caring for them. My experience, combined with my certification in pet care, ensures that your dogs will receive the best attention, love, and safety they deserve. I'm in school from 8:20 AM to 1:40 PM, but I have a 45-minute lunch period during which I can check on your pets, ensuring they receive the care and attention they need while you're away. I am available almost every weekend as well. I can care for your dog in your home by providing daily walks, feeding them at scheduled times, administering any medications if needed, and offering companionship and playtime to keep them happy. I’ll ensure their environment remains clean and safe, giving you peace of mind while you're away.
About: I have taken care of animals for as long as I remember! I have had both large (double my weight as a child) and small dogs, I have fostered two kittens, and have enjoyed the company of several other smaller pets. I am a trustworthy caretaker that is comfortable around all pets, am willing to adapt and learn, and am grateful in advance for the opportunity to connect with your pets. I am also very active and can walk (or jog with) your pets for however long is suitable to their routine. When I come to care for your pet, I will ensure they have my full attention and care. I have my own dog at home (an Australian Shepherd, Border Collie, Maltese, Shih Tzu mix) that keeps my life exciting! I currently work part-time during my gap year, and have lots of free time to spend with your furry friends. I am also flexible and can accept last-minute bookings. I look forward to meeting your pets! I am currently working part-time before going to medical school, so I have lots of free time and am very flexible! Spending time with your animals would be the best pastime for me! I can follow your specific protocols to ensure your dog, your house, and your belongingd are all kept safe, comfortable, and happy! I also always maintain a stream of communication.
“This review is overdue! We first booked Shellby a few months back on very short notice. It was a very last-minute request, and our usual walker/sitter was unavailable. I contacted Shellby and she got back to me very quickly. I was worried because I usually do a "meet and greet" any time we have a new sitter, but in this instance, it wasn't an option. Shelby was an excellent communicator leading up to her walking/feeding my dogs, and put my mind at ease. My dogs did great with her and the care they received was excellent. I've since rebooked Shellby and plan to do so again. I'm so glad I've found this great new dog walker. Definitely recommend her services!”
About: I have a 12 year old chihuahua. I’ve had her since she was 2 months old and she’s still with us. She’s now blind so there are adjustments we do to best suit her in our house. I take pride in my adaptability and desire to connect with each pet individually to meet their needs. Hi there, I’m currently a student at Cal State Fullerton. I work part time with the Boys and Girls club as a mentor Coach therefore my schedule is flexible. I really appreciate detailed information. I am always open to adjusting my approach to any routine that best fits your pets needs. It’s a case by case manor.
About: I grew up with dogs and currently have 2 cats. One of my cats is a senior (almost 20 years old) so I do have experience caring for a senior pet. I love animals and will treat yours as my own! I would prefer dogs who are kid friendly. About this sitter: My name is Tessa and I'm a stay-at-home mom of 3. I love animals and have 2 cats myself! I would love to make your dog a part of our family for the day or longer! Regarding my cats: I am able to keep my cats separate from your dog, if you are concerned about that. I think it’s best to keep them separate to avoid any issues. I put my cats in my primary bedroom upstairs along with all their stuff and they are perfectly fine! But if your dog is cat friendly, I don’t mind letting them interact a bit. My senior cat is just a little freaked out by high energy dogs but she calms down after a bit. My younger cat is probably more open to dogs, she’s very friendly and mellow. Either way, I’m happy to accommodate! I drop my 3 kids off at school Monday-Friday and I am done with that around 8:30am. I pick up my youngest at 1:40 and my middle child at 3pm. So I will have about 4 hours each day until pick up my youngest. I am also available most weekends. Just message me and will do my best to accommodate your schedule. We live in a 4 bedroom condo and I have a fenced in patio and plenty of walking space throughout my neighborhood. Your dogs will feel safe and right at home! I will also make sure that your dogs are safe and cared your dog is in my home!
Over 4 pet parents in Portola Park have booked dog walking
Portola Park dog parents share their Rover experiences
Makenna is a great dependable pet sitter and her love of dogs really shows!! She is communicative, reliable and she cared for our dog like her own. Our dog is currently taking medication that makes her extremely thirsty and urinate frequently and Makenna was on top of her care. We’ve had both good and bad experiences with rover and this was a great experience. Thank you Makenna we will definitely reach out again the next time we need care for Penny.
Shea has been absolutely amazing with my dog, Harley. From the very beginning, her communication has been excellent, she provides detailed updates after every walk along with photos, which I genuinely look forward to reading each day. It’s clear she truly cares about the dogs she works with. Harley is very comfortable with her, which gives me a lot of peace of mind. Shea goes above and beyond, not only with her attentiveness and reliability, but also through thoughtful gestures like the personalized magnet she made for Harley, which was such a nice surprise. I’m incredibly grateful we found her and will definitely be working with her again. I highly recommend Shea to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and professional dog walker.
Mia's reliability in addition to her care for my Calamity Grace gave me such confidence when I was away. She also was a blessing for my elderly Mom, who is unable to exercise my girl. My mom did insist on her skipping a day, which I understand. Please give her the pay for that day.
Nao did an amazing job walking our dog, Morty. She was prompt with great communication and she was able to take our request on short notice around the holidays. Morty really liked her and we got so many cute photos of the walk. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Nao again!
Sabrina did a great job taking out my Milo. The communication with her was amazing and she often sent me pictures of what he was doing. Sabrina also went above and beyond her Duty by making sure Milo had water in its bowl and making sure that she communicated with me efficiently. I will definitely be booking her again.
One word to describe Alejandro's services: PHENOMENAL! I looked for someone who was very close to me distance-wise and within my budget within a few days from a trip due to last min change in plans for care for my dogs. I ultimately decided to go with Alejandro after reviewing his photos and profile. What caught my attention was how you could tell just by looking at the photos that he really cared about his pets, which was extremely important to me. The vibes I got was, "this is a dog dad", which to me meant that they were going to care for my pets as if they were my children. Very important. Alejandro responded quickly, and we scheduled an in-person meeting for him to meet my boys. I was really impressed by his professionalism and the questions he asked me to better understand my situation. I could tell he took his role seriously, and it made me feel even more confident in his ability to care for my boys. We scheduled one more in-person meeting for him to tour my home and property so that I could show him the usual routes. I had left Alejandro with detailed pet instructions as he also agreed to feed my dogs aside from walking them and give them their treats as scheduled, but I had also advised him I would not have internet access while I was away. He assured me he would still provide updates despite the lack of internet so I could read them when I was able to reconnect with the world again. I was thoroughly pleased with the reports he provided and the photos of my babies. The first report, off the bat, made me instantly feel relieved because I knew I had made the best choice by selecting Alejandro as the person to work with. I could tell from the report and the photos that my boys were having the time of their life experiencing walks differently and with someone who really cared about them. I absolutely will go with Alejandro again when I need to utilize his services and cannot rave enough about him. You will not regret it. Best dog dad in the world!
