About: My family has always loved animals - I have taken care of quite a variety (cats, dogs, horses, and chickens!) since I was 6 years old. I can't wait to welcome your pet into our loving home - my goal is to make them comfortable, happy, and feel as loved as they do in their own home. My husband and I both work from home, so I'm able to give your pet lots of love and attention throughout the day. We will take regular walk and potty breaks, and when we're not outside they are welcome to curl up by our feet or follow us around the house. We are a loving home that will strive to meet your pets specific needs. I believe in routine, and will do my best to ensure that while your pet stays with us, they know what to expect and when.
“Thank you so much Kyle for taking care of my babies!! You did a great job and they were sleepy when we got home which is always a good sign. You are awesome and we appreciate it☺️”
About: Animals and I have been drawn to each other since I was young. I started caring for them when I was 10, but I always had a love and pull toward them. I've been the go-to person for friends, family, neighbors, and all pet owners to care for all their pet's needs (& wants). I'm a full animal lover who feels in tune to adapt to each animal and understand its unique communication and cues. I've been the person again & again where pet parents say, "Oh, they really like you," "They rarely act this welcoming," or "Wow, they feel comfortable with you!" No one knows a pet like their parent -- so I feel honored each time I get one of these comments! My Pet Sitting Style: First is first, I would love to have a quick call to see if we are a pet-sitting match. And after, meet you and your pet in person before anything else. For coming into a pet's home without its owner, I want to ensure they will be comfortable with me while you are gone. I work remotely, so I can stay with your pet at your home as long as I have Wi-Fi access! I will nurture, feed, play, and care for all your pets needs. And above all, I promise to treat your pets with the same love I would give my own. My work time is split between being behind the computer and in-person meetings, interviews, etc. So while I work from the computer, I can keep your pet company, take breaks to give care and ensure their needs will be met with my priorities. But, I also might be taken for a few hours or more at a time but would be coming back home to your pet/s. When first getting to your home, I will enter just me (without any bags) to ensure your pet is comfortable and secure. I will adapt to the cues they give me, If they want to be left alone, played with, or cuddled! I will take in all care instructions you have given me and make sure your pet is as safe and looked after as possible.
“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!”
About: Hi! I’m Siena, a lifelong dog lover with years of experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. I’ve cared for everything from tiny 5 lb pups to 150 lb dogs, so I’m comfortable adapting to each dog’s individual needs, energy level, and routine. I especially love helping with dog walks and drop-in visits. Whether your dog needs a good walk to get some energy out, a potty break while you’re at work, feeding, playtime, or simply some company and attention, I’m happy to help! I’m responsible, dependable, flexible with scheduling, and a great communicator. I know how important it is to feel comfortable with the person caring for your pet—especially when they’re coming into your home—so I make communication a priority. You can expect updates and photos during my visits so you always know how your pup is doing. I’ve worked with many different types of dogs over the years and have several great reviews from past clients on my profile. I treat every dog like I would my own and always make sure they’re safe, happy, and well cared for. I’d love to become someone you can consistently rely on when your pup needs a walk, check-in, or a little extra attention. 🐾 I have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to accommodate walks and drop-in visits throughout the week. I’m happy to work around your pet’s normal routine and can often accommodate varying times or last-minute needs. I understand how helpful it is to have someone reliable you can consistently count on! I treat every pet and home with the same care and respect I would want someone to show my own. I’m very attentive to instructions and will follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeding, medications, walks, potty breaks, and any house rules. Safety is always my priority, and I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel completely comfortable while your pet is in my care.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - San Clemente
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
Lauren was fantastic! 1st time using Rover, we left our Wolfgang with family and Lauren made the transition so smooth. Lauren was on time every day and Wolfgang absolutely took to Lauren as if he’d known her forever. He couldn’t wait to see her and go on his walks. Definitely would recommend her! Thanks again Lauren💛
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.
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!

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
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.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk.

Every walker on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have.

Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in San Clemente. On Rover:
- 92% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement walker.
