“Carmel is a wonderful and responsible dog walker. She arrives on time and my dog is so happy to see her. She is able to manage my stubborn corgi and is patient when he wants to just stop and rest. She is a cheerful lady who is always positive and uplifting. I am so happy that I found her!”

“Juliette was phenomenal. She was super flexible when my schedule became unpredictable, while my wife was deployed, and sent photo updates of her activities with our pups. She was very communicative and always quick to respond. She took our pups to the park on a hike and we could tell that they had a great time. We would definitely recommend Juliette to others in need of a dog walker while they are away at work. She always went above and beyond what would be required for a "dog walk booking."”

About: I've been caring for our dog since raising a training him almost 12 years ago. I had been dog sitting and walking friends and family's pets prior to having our own. I would love to help care for your fur babies!! I'm a mom of 2 and married to my best friend. I'm available during the week most days from 8-2:00. I can do early walks or evening drop ins too. I will come to your home and love your dog when you can't! I am so filled with joy when I get to play with or help care for dogs. They are the most loyal beings and the make the world a better place. I also have experience with dogs recovering from surgery and administering medication.
About: Since I was a little girl, I have always had at least two canine companions by my side—which is partially due to having a dog-loving mother who works in the pet grooming industry—so naturally, I have made friends with cats and dogs from all walks of life (and many other animals, too!). My fondness toward all living creatures, however, is something innate. I have plenty of experience in pet care, be it from caring for the pets of my own (including insects!), to working in animal shelters, and petsitting for friends, family, and professionally for clients. Whether it is time to eat, play, walk, bathe, or administer medication—I am here to assist with any tasks (including light housekeeping during house sitting) that can provide you with peace of mind while your pet & I are busy becoming new best friends 🐾🦴💗 My current schedule is pretty consistent, flexible & seldom changes, but if necessary I am always willing to do my best to accommodate your needs. When I come to your home, I believe it is important to prioritize the normal routine of your pet for their comfort & wellbeing, first and foremost. However, I love to incorporate morning/evening walks & extra play time if this works for your pet! I love to know all of the little details about your pet so I can become more of a friend to them rather than a stranger & the rules which allow me take care of them adequately. I am more than willing to keep in touch with you through messages & photos throughout the duration of my time caring for your fluffy babie(s).

About: Hi! My name is Rebecca and I'm an American/Canadian living in San Clemente, CA. I am a remote grad student and am always looking for new furry friends to hang out with. In my spare time, I love trying new things, hiking, and making friends with strangers. I've been a go-to pet sitter for friends and neighbors for years. My specialty is with active dogs, but I've cared for all types of pets. Fun Facts: - I once lived in the Yukon for a month chasing the northern lights and running from grizzly bears - I once took in a stray cat at my university and kept him in my dorm apartment until we could rehome him. We named him Julius (he had an orange coat). - My longest travel time to a destination was 36 hours - I ran my first half marathon this year I work remotely, so I can work with your pet's schedule and give them the one-on-one attention they need while you're away.

I take great pride in being trustworthy in the way I care for both your pets and your home. I care for your home as if it were my own and often leave it cleaner than I found it.
About: I’ve been a dog owner since 2013 where I was responsible for feeding, walking, grooming and giving my dog daily exercise activities. I also previously watched dogs for families and friends before apps like Rover came out. I’ve always been naturally friendly with dogs and they take a liking to me. Right now I’m available weekdays. I do work part-time as a sports coach in the afternoons. I do my best to be very present to support my wife and first born seven month old girl. I’m able to walk our fur pals whether their are crated or not with care. Our two dogs (a pure miniature Corgi and white Canaan) used to be crated for when my wife and I went to work. Eventually I worked from home so they didn’t have to be crated during the day. My wife and I moved back home with her parents so our dogs live with my mother on their property.
“Anthony is a conscientious dog walker and really cares about making sure the dog has good experience. He is even teaching him commands and how to sit and stop. I like how my dog responds to his kindness.”

About: My name is Natasha and I live in beautiful San Clemente. I work part-time from home and am a mother to two school aged boys. I was born with a love for all animals and have three of my own (Gus-dog, Nora-cat, Remi-cat). I’ve been around dogs, cats and horses for most of my life. I love to be outside and take my dog Gus hiking all the time. I would love to take good care of your pup when you need it! I am currently working part-time from home so I’m available to board your dog most weekends and weekdays. I am home most of the day so I can give them as many walks as needed as well. I have a fully fenced in backyard and my boy Gus, who would love to keep your fur babies company while they are here with us. I also have a gate on my stairs so that the dogs play downstairs and my cats can have their own space upstairs. My dog Gus is crate trained and I can also create your dog if that’s what you prefer. Our neighborhood is extremely dog friendly and we also have hiking trails attached to our neighborhood that I use all the time if your dog likes to get out and go on longer walks.

About: I’ve been caring for animals for over 20 years and genuinely love spending time with pets of all kinds.

“Great service, pup is always so much happier when she gets her walks from Michelle. I sometimes book last minute but she always makes time for Shelby. Very efficient. Would recommend!”

About: I have helped my mom care for animals my entire life. Throughout my teenage year I helped her care for 3 pit bulls and also helped at the shelter that she worked at walking the dogs and feeding the animals. As I grew older I had my own animals, such as a cat, lizard, multiple mice, and a dog I had trained from a puppy. I have recently moved and had to rehome my dog and would now like to use my experiences and love for animals to help other people. Hello! I’m Ryelee, I am currently working as a caretaker 5 days a week, but absolutely love animals and would love to spend time with your babies! I am not currently in the position to have my own animals but as a person who grew up around them, I miss them very very much. In my free time you can find me roller blading, crocheting, or at the beach! When I care for other people animals I start with going over the instructions of care the owners has provided with them while asking questions that will benefit me and the animals later. I then follow the feeding, exercising, and cleaning practices the owner has asked me to follow. While doing this I also watch how the animal is reacting to me and how much affection the animal itself needs from me, so I’m not overwhelming them.

About: I have taken care of dogs and cats for years through pet sitting, dog walking, fostering kittens, and running cat adoption events. I have also taken care of a variety of different animals, and with all my various experiences, I am a reliable and confident caretaker. My goal is to take care of your pet with love and care, and prioritize your expectations! Pet sitting and walking is my current job, so my schedule is always open! I have time every day to either walk dogs, do checks in, and watch pets overnight and/or for extended periods. I always keep a watchful eye on any animal in my care. I never let dogs go off leash (unless that is specifically asked of me), and I make sure to spend quality time with pets.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - San Clemente
My Shelby girl had a great time with Heather. They went on a walk together. Heather showed up on time for our initial meet up. She communicates well and responds to messages in a timely manner. Shelby is looking forward to spending time with Heather in the future.

Amazing!!! Total last minute emergency Needed someone to come take our 100 lb puppy out for a long walk. We were nervous due to our dogs size and youth. I loved seeing Ben’s training history with dogs- I definitely felt that Gus would be in qualified hands Ben responded immediately! He came to our house and was in time. We asked if he could take our pup for a jog and Ben delivered!!!!! I couldn’t be more grateful

We are so sad to be moving because we would have absolutely kept her as our dog walker. She was amazing with our dogs, who are big and can sometimes be a bit challenging on walks. She always handled them with so much care, and they always came home tired and happy. They were always so excited to see her, which says everything! She was also very flexible when we needed to adjust schedules, which made such a difference for us. We are truly going to miss her, and any dogs would be lucky to have her.

Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your San Clemente. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
