Dog Walking Rancho Santa Margarita

“Did absolutely amazing with our rescue dog. Sent me pictures and videos, even made sure she drank water and that she was comfortable before putting her back in her kennel. 100% recommend her to walk your fur babies!”

About: I just graduated college with a degree in Animal Science! I worked as a veterinary assistant for 2.5 years and have lots of experience caring for all types of pets. I have experience with puppies and seniors, as well as dogs and cats with special medications/diets and behavioral issues. I can cater to any special requests you have and will give them all the pets and attention they want :) I have grown up with dogs my entire life and still have three at home, so I know how to incorporate caring for your pup into my daily routine! I can schedule my day around them or possibly bring them along with me throughout my day. When caring for your dog in your home, I will treat your home with respect and care. I will keep your house tidy and clean the backyard when necessary.

“Rachel was great with my senior dog who needed a walk while I was gone for an extended time. She was very flexible on feeding him and took him on a nice long walk. Overall she was great!”

“Tianna was amazing! She was so sweet and very accommodating when meeting our dogs. She has a really kind personality and was very calm, which made our dogs very comfortable with her. She had total confidence and control taking both dogs for a walk at once and our dogs came back so happy. We feel like we have very peculiar dogs and Tianna took all of their quirks in stride. Our dogs are often wary of meeting new people, especially our covid puppy who wasn’t socialized well, but they both warmed up to Tianna immediately. 100% recommend and can’t wait to have her walk our dogs again!”

“Erika went above and beyond from day one. I had just rescued a very nervous dog and contacted her in panic — she responded immediately and came the same day to help. She took the time to sit with my dog multiple times so he could get comfortable, and her patience, warmth, and communication have been amazing. I’ve now hired her permanently and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy dog walker.”

About: I have 8+ years of pet sitting experience, in addition to caring for my dachshund from ages 2 to 14. Since her passing last year, we have a pet-free home and backyard suitable for hosting dogs and cats and a lot of love and attention to give. Our dog was also VERY food motivated and would try to eat anything vaguely edible in the house. Because of this, we are still in the habit of keeping all foods out of pet-reach, including in the kitchen, purses/bags, and trash cans. I am currently job-seeking, which can be done from any location and allows me to have a completely flexible schedule, all days and hours of the week. I have a 2 story pet-free home with a fenced in backyard with grass. We have dog beds, dog stairs for the couch, and a small crate available. I only host 1 client at a time in my home (1 or 2 dogs from the same household). This means your pets will get my full attention, and there won’t be any issues with reactive dogs.

“Brady absolutely loves his walks with Jay! He looks so happy when he gets picked up, his tail wags away as they go for walks. My pooch is a "hard walker", he pulls & and at times he has reactivity issues towards other dogs, but Jay seems to know how to handle him. They definitely have a connection! Jay also has an easy going personality & he's been trust worthy regarding the schedule. Super happy to have discovered Jay as Brady's dog walker!🐾😊”

“The best dog walker u can ever ask for ! Alice always make sure the dog is having a good walk and she is very nice will refer Alice to the people that we know”

About: I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember. I’m always excited whenever I see an animal. One of my former jobs was at Starbucks and whenever I got to see a puppy or a different pet in the Drive thru with their owner, I’ll always get super excited. I’ve been taking care of animals for 14 years and I’ve had experience with various different kinds of pets. Such as, cats, a dog, a rabbit, a leopard gecko, a parakeet and a rat. I’ve also worked at pet store for a year and learned even more about how to take care of animals. I even trained the birds there. Animals make the world a little better. I’m also a very patient and friendly person who will treat your pets as if they’re my own. I will always make sure to go above and beyond for your pets. I will listen to all directions given by owner. I have two dog parks located in my apartment complex and another park located close by. I work weekdays and always have weekends off! However, I will always make time for your pet no matter what. Taking care of pets comes natural to me and it’s so fun that it doesn’t even feel like a chore. I will give your pets a lot of love and will always take their safety in consideration. I’ll keep them crated with approval if there is an issue and keep a close eye on them to make sure they’re ok.

About: I’ve raised, trained & cared for dogs for over 30 years. My friends say any dog who stays with us has hit the jackpot. My husband & I both work from home, are mega dog lovers and shower all our guest pets with love and attention. We always provide daily "pupdates" and photos so our pet parents know their fur babies are being well cared for and loved in their absence. There’s nothing like peace of mind when you have to be away from your four-legged family members. My husband and I currently work from home and will shower your fur baby with love and attention. They will be well cared in our home. Availability most days with enough notice. We have a fully fenced patio great for potty breaks, basking in the sun, or resting in the shade. Pets are always accompanied when outside for safety. Inside is always a comfortable 72 degrees. We have a 2-story home with hard-wood floors, but area rugs in most rooms make it nice and cozy for pups. We are a calm and quiet household who prefers dogs with matching energy, but we still like to play and run several times a day, followed by well-deserved naps. I’m happy to preserve your fur baby’s routine when they are in my care. I can also administer medication if needed. ** for the safety of all the pets in my care, your pet must be well-mannered, potty trained, up to date on all vaccinations, flee/tick free, and in no way contagious.

They will receive the same love, attention and care! Any specific needs can be accommodated as well.

About: I have pet sat for friends and family throughout the years and have developed a special love for it. I have skills administering meds to cats and have three cats of my own!

I treat every pet as my own and every home as my own, with the upmost respect and care for everything in it! If there are any specific house rules, I would be glad to accommodate them!

About: Hi I’m Kalynn! I’m 22 years old and have always been a huge animal lover. I grew up with all sorts of animals including cats, dogs, reptiles, amphibians, and even rodents.

About: I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life and have many years of hands-on experience providing daily care. I previously cared for my own dog throughout all stages of her life, including her senior years, which gave me experience with patience, medication routines, and attentive care. I’m currently a firefighter, so reliability, responsibility, and safety are second nature to me. I enjoy staying active and love giving dogs the exercise, attention, and companionship they need. Looking forward to doing exactly that for your pup! I work for 24 hours and then I am off for 24 hours, alternating days. On my days off I’m looking for a beneficial way to spend my time, helping others. I care for pets as if they’re my own by following routines, respecting the client’s home, prioritizing safety on walks, and providing attentive, calm, and reliable care at all times.

About: As an animal lover since a small age, I’ve always been the go-to neighbor and friend to care for other’s beloved pets while they’re away. It’s a bright spot in my day to share some time with furry family members. I love cats, and I’d like to think I’m a bit of a cat whisperer. We have two cats, Bartleby and Butterscotch, both rescues. I understand cats can be timid with new people and need time to feel safe to reveal themselves. I feel I’m good at communicating my intentions and seem to gain their trust quickly through finding just the right way to speak and pet them. Dogs are wonderful companions. I always hate to travel and leave our 5 year old Frenchie named Brutus behind. I had the honor of training him since he was 10 weeks old. Brutus came along right as our senior rescue dog Bill was diagnosed with Cushing’s disease and needed daily medication to help treat it and eventually wearing diapers around the clock. Bill was a Yorkie-poodle mix with skin allergies and needed daily medication. I got to experience the senior dog that was slowing down and needing more care while training a high energy puppy. So I’m fully able and ready to care for dogs at any stage of their lives. I’m great at meeting them we’re they’re at and gaining their trust. I’d be more than happy to help care for your cats and dogs! I’m working part time and have time in the mornings, and after 2pm until late into the night for any help you may need. I am happy to take your dog on walks and play with them, as well as feed and spend time with any cats you may have in your home.
