“Kiara did an excellent job keeping me updated throughout the whole walk with Ford! I received many pictures as well as very detailed notes on Ford’s status, behavior, & over all well being during the walk! She took very good care of my boy & will definitely be trusting her with him for future walks/dog care.”

“Jared was GREAT! Kept me updated the whole time. Sent pics. Offered to take him running. Even let me know my dog might have an oncoming upset stomach (which he did) So my BF was prepared and laid out pads over the carpet. Saved me the headache of having to hire a cleaner or order a rug doctor. Will definitely keep Jared on the list of trusted walkers.”


About: I've had dogs my whole life; from a Chihuahua to a German Shepard! Last summer I lost my 17 year old baby and I'm not ready to get another dog yet but I have the time and knowledge to watch yours! I volunteer at an animal shelter every week and sometimes I foster. I love going on long walks multiple times a day so it would be a bonus to bring your pup along! I have experience with senior dogs and medicine. I work 4 days a week and I make my own schedule so I can easily do a midday walk even if I'm working that day. If I'm not out walking or working I'm usually just at home reading and would love to have a furry friend next to me. I work Wednesday through Saturday as a hairdresser, I make my own schedule so I can easily schedule mid day walks. Most mornings I walk for 1-2 hours already so I'd love to bring a pup along. After work, I just stay in and read usually so I'd be a great companion. I'm a great house sitter, I'm very chill and clean and respectful. I can take your dogs on walks and also play with them in the houses and truly love them like they are my own.

“Mia was awesome! I went with them and asked to go to a public place b/c Bima isn’t great that way. Mia was calm cool and in control! I saw another side of my dog which had everything to do with Mia and her comfort around a reactive dog. Thank you. I highly recommend Mia”

“Damariz was wonderful!!! She was super communicative and helpful. I gave her specific instructions on how to enter and lock the door and she was great. I trust her with my pup”

About: I’ve spent years caring for rescue dogs and cats, and I understand how important patience, calm energy, safety, and trust are for every pet. I currently care for multiple rescued pets of my own, including two rescue dogs and rescue cats, so I’m very comfortable with different personalities, energy levels, and routines. I treat every animal like family and always focus on making pets feel safe, loved, exercised, and relaxed while their owners are away. I’m reliable, attentive, communicative, and committed to providing dependable care you can feel confident about. I have a flexible schedule and genuinely enjoy building routines around pet care. Daily walks, exercise, feeding, playtime, and making pets feel calm and comfortable are already a big part of my everyday life with my own rescue dogs and cats. I’m reliable, punctual, communicative, and committed to giving every pet consistent attention, care, and affection. Whether your pet needs an active walk, companionship, or a calm and patient sitter, I always make their safety and happiness a priority. Safety, trust, and calm energy are extremely important to me when caring for pets. I always take time to understand each pet’s personality, routine, and comfort level so they feel safe and secure. I have experience caring for rescue animals and understand the importance of patience, structure, supervision, and positive interactions. I keep owners updated with messages and photos, closely monitor pets during walks and visits, and treat every home and animal with respect, reliability, and care as if they were my own family.

I am experienced with all types of dogs, and regularly attend dog training and pack walks with our dog trainer on the weekend. I currently work remote, so I am able to work from your home, as needed, to look after your pets closely and carefully. I can make sure they get proper bathroom breaks, walks, and structure that is needed! I am comfortable working within the boundaries you have established for your pets. Whether you like to keep your pets crated at night or not, I can accommodate what you'd like!

I also have a snake and a tortoise, so I’m confidant and comfortable with reptile care as well.

Santa Ana Heights dog parents share their Rover experiences
John has been very communicative and thorough as our regular dog walker this summer. He is prompt and timely. Our doggo is a special boy with certain needs for medical conditions. John has gone the extra mile with making sure he is safe and comfortable after walks!

Bridget has been nothing short of amazing! She goes above and beyond to communicate, take pictures, takes Mr. Bear on different / long walk routes to keep things interesting, and truly treats Bear as if he’s her own. Couldn’t ask for a better person to take care of my canine son 💓

Kiara did an excellent job keeping me updated throughout the whole walk with Ford! I received many pictures as well as very detailed notes on Ford’s status, behavior, & over all well being during the walk! She took very good care of my boy & will definitely be trusting her with him for future walks/dog care.
Lea is the best dog walker /pet sitter we have ever found. She is smart, personable, and clearly knows a lot about pets and how to handle them effectively. Belle was so excited to meet her. She asked good questions about Belle, her temperament and health conditions. She immediately engaged with Belle. Belle can’t wait for the next visit. What a find! Book Lea before she is booked solid!
Mia was awesome! I went with them and asked to go to a public place b/c Bima isn’t great that way. Mia was calm cool and in control! I saw another side of my dog which had everything to do with Mia and her comfort around a reactive dog. Thank you. I highly recommend Mia

Thank you Lauren for always taking good care of our puppy! We always felt bad leaving him when we have a night out but since using Lauren to check in on him, it’s been great knowing he’s in good hands! She is very reliable, trustworthy and great with dogs- she has one of her own too- our puppy warmed right up to her. Highly recommended her

Camden was so great with Toffee! I booked a last minute walk with Camden and she was so kind and responsive. She sent lots of updates and photos which I really appreciated! Toffee was so happy and excited to hang out with Camden. I will definitely book another walk with her when we’re in the area. Thanks, Camden!
