Dog Walking In Turtle Rock

“Rachel is wonderful - we highly recommend! We booked walking services by Rachel and will continue to, as she has a great demeanor; calm and relaxed yet assertive and warm. She’s knowledgeable and sends great, detailed updates and uses the Rover card each time. We’ll definitely be booking her services again!”

About: I’ve been raised around animals of all kinds since I can remember, my mother regularly raised foster kittens and we had foster dogs constantly in and out of the house. I currently still foster dogs and kittens on my own and am the go to sitter for all my friends and family. Spent years volunteering at shelters and rescues and also worked at a pet store for over a year. Also lover of small critters being a mom of fish, frogs, a hamster, and a spider. I currently work from home selling artwork and crafts so I’m very flexible with my schedule. I can stay all day or even over night and make sure to keep your pet company. I’m an avid hiker so I’d be more than happy to take your dog for a long hike (with permission obviously) or shorter walks around the neighborhood. I would only need to leave for short errands and to feed my own pets if my partner is unable to do so, but majority of time is dedicated to your Pets in your home. I’ve worked with animals of all ages and personalities and can accommodate any special needs your pet may have. If they are shy and need time to warm up, I will do all I can to gain their trust. If they need specialty food or medication, I have my own cats on a strict medication schedule so I’m more than used to it. If they are high energy and need lots of exercise I will make sure to get them up and running around as much as they need. I just want to make sure their lives are just as comfortable as when you are home with them.

“Sonomi has been walking my dog while I’ve been out of town, and she’s been a gem. He’s my furbaby, a BIG furbaby, and I’m so grateful that he’s in great hands. Thank you Sonomi!”

“Carol has been great with my golden retriever puppy, Lemon. She is very flexible and always sends me pictures and updates after her walks. I can’t thank her enough as know how much of a handful she can be during this rebellious stage of life. Thank you, Carol!!!”

About: I’ve had dogs in my family and in my life ever since I was born, I’ve taken care of all sizes and breeds of dogs and haven’t come across a dog I didn’t LOVE! I’ve taken care of all of my dogs ever since I was able to do chores, walking, bathing, training, and caring after them. I’ve also cared for my family’s, friends, and neighbors dogs overnight for vacations and trips since I was 18! I just left my job and am preparing to move to australia at the end of july! my schedule is free for you and your pets and i’d love the chance to care for them until i leave! I follow any and all recommendations you have for your babies (because you know them best), and I like for your pets to get to know me and me them before taking them out or playing with them so they feel comfortable with me. I am also very active so I like to take them out as much as they’re willing to!

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover and educator with a flexible schedule on weekends, holidays, and during the summer. After sharing 14 wonderful years with my French Bulldog, Bijoux, I found Rover to be a special way to continue caring for dogs—even when I didn’t have one of my own. I have open availability on weekends, holidays, and throughout the summer. During your pet’s stay, I am home full-time and provide attentive, one-on-one companionship. I never double-book or care for multiple pets at the same time, ensuring your pet receives my full focus and care. I live with my partner in a townhome, and he is also an educator who shares my love for dogs. Together, we provide a caring, calm environment where your fur baby will receive plenty of extra love and attention. A meet-and-greet will always be scheduled before any service to get to know you and your pet. This gives us time to connect, discuss important details about your pet’s needs and routine, and ensure that my services are the right fit for both you and your pup. I care for every pet as if they were my own. I understand how important it is to share detailed instructions when leaving your dog in someone else’s care, so please feel free to tell me anything that will help me provide the best possible experience—whether it’s medical needs, preferences, routines, or special quirks. My goal is to offer consistent, loving care that mirrors what your pet receives at home.

About: I'm a retiree who loves Dogs. I am respectful of the family needs and I connect with dogs of all kinds. I am flexible with the schedule. I am currently retired so I have plenty of time to play with your lovely dog. I am flexible to your schedule. I prefer daytime. I currently do not plan to have pets in my own home. I may later depending on my bonding. I prefer to help with your needs at your own home.

“First time using Rover and I’m really pleased with the service! Molly was great from the meet and greet to the actual dog walking service for our pup Scottie. Will definitely be booking with Molly again!”

About: I have taken my daughter’s and friends dogs out for walks, I enjoy interacting with dogs have watched my daughter’s dog for overnight for few nights. I take walks couple times every day and I’m retired so enjoy interacting with animals. I have large backyard and enjoy gardening and nature. Play with them, feed them and take for long walk with them. Cuddle them. Talk to them I also have big backyard so if needed can care for them there

About: I enjoy spending time with cats and dogs, here’s my pet sitting experience so far: - Taken care of a high energy 2 year old female Doberman on numerous occasions (even during heat and post spay surgery) - A Senior German Shepherd who also happens to be a service dog - Three lovely rescue kittens (I also helped their mother build them their beautiful cat tree) - A three year old playful labradoodle I’m currently pursuing my master’s at UC Irvine, and outside of classes and studying, I have plenty of time to care for your furry loved one! I’ll make sure they get the attention, playtime, and care they need while fitting seamlessly into your daily routine. Most pets prefer a set and predictable routing, so it is important to me that I am able to provide the same routine for your pet while you're away. I will walk/feed your loved one at the same time that you normally do.

About: Hi, My name is Natalie. I am a gentle & caring caretaker here to help ease your pet's worries while you are away. As a veterinary technician, I've supported scared animals through some of their most vulnerable hours. I'm known for being abundantly patient & gentle. I help pets feel more comfortable, more secure, reassured, & cared for. I pride myself in paying strong attention to details, which is invaluable in veterinary care & will provide an extra level of supervision for your pet should anything seem amiss or unusual when I arrive. Frequent jogging is a health goal of mine, so whether your pet is a tiny puppy looking for attention, a geriatric needing special tender loving care, or a strong young dog begging to get some of its energy out, I really can help you meet your pet's needs. I recently moved to Orange County & I'm excited to add pet care back into my routine in my new stomping ground. Jogging a few times a week is a health goal of mine, so I look forward to helping energetic dogs get out & moving! Sharing my time petting, caring for & keeping company those pets who are just not happy to be left home alone will be a very fulfilling part of my day. Very old, very young, large, small, & anything in between, I'm here for them. I want your pets to feel happier, more comfortable, less anxious & more reassured by having me there to break up the monotony of their day. Some animals just feel sad being alone, others need help getting out to the grass for a potty break. Some dogs just have more energy than they know what to do with & will be healthier, happier, more well behaved animals for you when you get home, if they've had an opportunity to let off some steam during the day. Your pet's health, safety, & well-being is my top priority. I've been extremely fortunate to grow up with a wide variety of pets, from dogs, cats, rabbit, guinea pig, hamsters, birds, quail, frogs, and fish. I understand that pets can feel more like members of the family than animals. I strive to give your pets the same level of care and respect that you would if you could be there in the moment.

About: Hi there! My name is Charlene and I’ve had experience taking care of dogs since I was 4 from taking care of my family dog Heidi. More specifically I started taking on more responsibilities in pet care when I turned 8. Taking my dog on daily walks, feeding everyday, and picking up their waste in the backyard after I came home from school. Now that I’ve grown up, I have a cat named Georgie which I have learned to care for the last year I’ve had him. Whether it’s a dog or a cat, I am happy to treat them like you would when you can’t. I am currently working remotely. I live in a very walkable neighborhood, and with a park nearby for walks, giving me quick and easy access to always be available to let your furry friend out. I have experience with all dog sizes, but I prefer to work with medium to small dogs. If boarding in my own home, I have a cat who is fine with dogs. He tends to keep to himself when around dogs and won’t attack. I’m currently working from home so I have a lot of free time in between applications to play with your furbaby all the time. If there are any special requests please let me know! My number one priority is keeping your pet safe like I would care for my own pets. I will always keep my clients updated with details to ease your mind and to make sure you know that your loved pet is in great hands.

“My dog liked Courtney very much! highly recommend her taking care of your pup”

About: I had a few pets growing up, but none compare to Theo! In 2021, I rescued my now 7 year old chihuahua. He is an anxious and reactive little guy — but he’s taught me so much! Over the past couple of years, I’ve gotten him to a much better place. He’s a happy, often pretty lazy, little chihuahua! And, because of him, I know how to love and support your pet in the best way possible. I’m currently attending Chapman University, but my schedule isn’t too busy. I most likely cannot do same day appointments, but 2-3 days notice would be much appreciated! However you take care of your dog, I will too. I want to make the space as comfortable and safe as possible and become a trusted pal of your lil (or big!) best friend.

About: I’ve had a drive to care for animals my entire life! I grew up with dogs and mostly cats and would dog-sitting for family members anytime they needed! I’ve always known that I wanted to work with animals when I grew up but veterinary care would make me too sad as it physically pains me to see sad and hurt animals:( I also have a history with horses and competing! I spent a summer(2023) in Louisiana volunteering at a barn where retired racehorses would get sent to rehab, retrain, and eventually rehome! I would spend all day helping rehab the horses! I worked at PetSmart both in the store as a PetCare Specialist and in the Grooming Salon as a Professional Bather! During my time there I realized how much I love making pets and their parents happy and a little more healthier! I loved talking with pet parents and educating them while also hearing about their furry babies! Nothing made me happier than seeing one of my clients walking in - tail wagging! I have a dog and a cat of my own! My dog is a mini Australian Shepherd whom I have trained myself! He loves to do agility training! I also groom him myself! I rescued my cat from the side of a freeway when he was a little kitten. He’s had some medical issues regarding his bladder so I’m well rounded with cat care and administering medicine! My cat is now my little Velcro kitty who always wants to be involved in what I’m doing! I’ve worked with all kinds of dogs- big and small! While I normally don’t have a preference between the two, I am currently pregnant with my first so I’m only really able to physically handle small/medium dogs for the time being. As a pet mom myself, pet care is a daily routine for me! I am a stay at home wife (soon to be mom) and spend most of my days spoiling my dog and cat! I’m new to the area so I don’t really have much that gets me out of the house and I absolutely love being around animals so I figured why not try to fill my time by helping other pet parents out who may not have as much time on their hands as I do! I’m very flexible with scheduling and last minute bookings so never hesitate to reach out! During my time working in the PetSmart grooming salon, I became very used to nervous and anxious dogs as grooming time can be very stressful for pets! I’d say I’m pretty good at recognizing anxious behavior and doing my best at making pups more comfortable! I also understand how nerve wracking it can be to trust someone with your pet - especially someone new! I have had an experience in the past that left me traumatized when it comes to leaving my pets in someone else’s care. So I too understand that overwhelming need to check in on your baby and make sure everything is going well! I promise you, as someone who has been on the other end, I am always welcoming to multiple check in texts, long lists, picture requests, and the need for as many details as possible! I’m someone who likes to feel sure in what they’re doing so if I have any questions or concerns- they will be brought up immediately. I never like to assume because there’s always a chance I could be wrong, so I like to get all the details!

About: A few fun facts about me: 🚽 I clean the litter box as often as I flush my own toilet 🥗 My pets eat organic, while I’m perfectly fine with fast food 💇 They get daily grooming, while I have a bad hair everyday 🫧 I keep their bowls spotless and shining 🦮 I make sure dogs get real walks, not just quick potty breaks (And this part might be a little bit long) I truly treat pets as family, but I also believe in raising them in a healthy, balanced way. I don’t just love them, I care about their physical and emotional well-being. I’ve raised my Shiba Inu (Chai) since she was 3 months old, and she’s now 10. Shibas are known for being stubborn, but she is well-trained, emotionally stable and sweet, and always praised by our vet for her health and temperament. I’ve always made sure she has the best care, structure, and attention she needs to thrive. I also have two long-haired cats, one Ragdoll (Mabu) and one British Longhair (Mango), so I’m very familiar with the level of grooming, patience, and daily care they require. Their coats are always well-maintained and tangle-free. Mango went through serious health challenges two years ago when he was 5-month old, and I personally managed his treatment at home for 84 days, followed by months of close care. He is now strong, active, and very healthy. I’ve also handled emergency situations and know how to act quickly when something isn’t right. Through all of this, I’ve become very comfortable with medications, health monitoring, and understanding different pet personalities. I’m patient, observant, and detail-oriented, but also calm and reliable in stressful situations. I’m flexible, communicative, and I genuinely care. Your pet won’t just be looked after, they’ll be understood, respected, and cared for like one of my own. I work part-time and have a pretty flexible schedule, so I’m able to spend a good amount of time caring for fur babies throughout the day! I keep a calm, safe home and have experience helping cats and dogs live together comfortably. I take time to understand their personalities and make sure everyone feels at ease.

About: ⭐️ Deep experience with anxious dogs ⭐️ Outdoor & at-home enrichment ⭐️ From puppies to seniors ⭐️ Med management💊 I’m the pet parent to a 6-year old rescue mix with high anxiety, so I know how scary and frustrating it is to find enrichment, care, and exercise that isn’t triggering or overwhelming for them. I’m available almost every weekday for walks, potty breaks, games (including at-home for anxious dogs who won’t play outside with others), and cuddles to keep your beloved furry family member happy and tired out while you’re away. Experienced with oral medication (giving it to my own dog daily!), enrichment games (snuffle mats, hiding games, et.), and high-energy activities like hikes and dog parks. My weekday schedule is flexible so your dog can have enrichment time whether you’re away at work or running errands. I currently work from home with flexible hours so any time from early morning through evening is an option for me. My utmost priority is your dog’s comfort, so I will adapt to your pet’s daily routine and your personal preferences for your home. You’ll receive pictures every time, whether we’re walking, snuggling on the couch, or playing games together in the yard or living room.

About: Your dog will be in good hands, basic grooming. I love running fast or slow with them. Playing fetch, caring for dogs of all ages Working full time monday thru friday but home on weekends. No pets in the home. I live in a gated apt in irvine with lots of space to run outside Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I provide a calm, caring, and trustworthy environment where pets can feel secure and loved. I follow your pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any special instructions.

“Yutong has been our regular dog walker this summer and is very communicative and timely! Our pup Wesley loves his walks with her. She is detailed in describing how the walk went and for an additional bonus takes very cute pictures of our goofy guy!”

About: I grew up with dogs and am very comfortable around pets. Happy to walk or take care of your dog overnight. I currently watch a mini golden doodle weekly and want to do more! I work full time from home so my availability is pretty free and flexible every week. I’m available on weekends if planned ahead for sitting needs. My apartment is clean and safe from other animals. I live in a very pet friendly area of Irvine so there’s always a good environment here.
