Four Paws OC

Heather at four paws OC and her staff have been taking amazing care of all my fur kids for over a year now. Always on time, great availability and have created quite the bond with my Labrador Rocky. Couldn’t ask for better service.

My dog is like my child. I would not trust her with just anyone! Not to mention the fact that she is very finicky as to whom she’ll walk with. Heather makes sure every detail of Lola’s care is taken care of. She is patient and loving with Lola. I also receive a daily text every time she comes to care for her, which gives me peace of mind. She is reliable and trustworthy. Heather is everything I was looking for in a pet sitter.

Heather has been a lifesaver for us! As is the case for everyone, our dog is a part of our family. She hasn’t really gone to any kennels and we don’t enjoy sending her to one anyway– she’s getting on in her age so we like to keep her at home. Being new to the area we didn’t know who we should use and happened upon a review on Heather via Unilocal.She is amazing with our dog– walks, feeding, prompt and attentive– and keeps us updated while we are away. She’s also a lovely person! For anyone wanting to make sure their furry friend is in great hands while their out of town please consider 4 Paws!

Heather was terrific in taking care of my pet rabbit while gone for a few days. Daily texts keep me at ease. Had no worries.

Can’t say enough about the care Heather and Stephen provided while I was away for my cat. He recently lost his sight so I was worried about him being alone for a week. He was looked after every day and I could tell when I got home that he was a happy boy. The texts every day assured me he was more than ok. Heather went above and beyond my expectations.

I have two big dogs, one that is dog aggressive and the other that is elderly with arthritis. I wouldn’t trust them to anyone but Heather and her crew! My dogs get so excited when Heather or one of the other walkers come that they start singing and dancing at the door. My dogs are my babies and I have no worries or concerns turning them over to Heathers care. She is absolutely the best!

Four Paws put my mind at ease. I have «difficult» dogs that I hate to leave. One is nervous and sometimes aggressive when I’m not around, and the other is big and barks a lot until she gets to know people. So I really needed someone with experience and patience who didn’t mind having to wait for the dogs to get to know them before interacting with them more, but in the meantime, making sure they were taken care of, fed, and loved even in their nervous state. Heather and her team did all of that and more. My dog who is sometimes aggressive and usually stays in his crate when dog sitters are around was out of his crate and sitting in Heather’s lap after just a few days. It really made me feel so much more comfortable about going away for a vacation knowing that my dogs would be well taken care of. Thank you, Heather!

For anyone considering pet services in the OC, I endorse and highly recommend Four Paws OC! Having lived in Chicago, the New York area and now here, I have had a ton of experience with pet care providers. Heather and her team are the platinum standard if you desire the best in quality and compassion for your pets.
Heather and team take amazing care of my sweet pooches (past and present) and I wouldn’t be able to perform my job or travel without the peace of mind they give me. They take care of your pets as if they were their own… seriously.
I use Four Paws OC for daily walks, pet sitting, check in visits (meds, companionship, etc.) and the occasional trip to the vet when I’m stuck out of town. While pet taxi service isn’t a service they offer, they did it to help me out of an unplanned situation when I could not get back home in time to get my dog to the vet. And, they did so without hesitating which shows that they really care for the welfare of your pets.
Four Paws OC goes above and beyond. I am immensely grateful for all that they have done for my dogs and me.

I don’t know how many times we have used Heather &Four Paws OC now (that many and will continue to use them!) Absolutely the best pet sitter we’ve had, updates us when she arrives, leaves and for us to let her know when we get back home. Meets with you and your furry family members before and goes over everything while taking notes. Very professional I would recommend her to every one!

We used Four Paws OC over the holidays and were so glad we did. We received a daily text that our cat was fed and happy. They took exceptional care of our cat Rufus and watched over our home. We will definitely be using their services every time we go out of town. Love the Facebook photos too.

Four Paws OC is a wonderful service! We were going out of town for the holidays and didn’t want to board our cat because she gets sick every time and had just gotten over a UTI. Heather came over before our trip and met the cat, learned about her medical history, play habits, eating habits, and likes/​dislikes. She even knew what to look for in case the UTI came back!
While we were away, we got updates via text message after every visit and came home to a happy cat with no issues. We will definitely be calling them next time we go out of town!

Four Paws Oc is amazing! Heather and her staff are great and super reliable. She has pet-​sat for us several times now and treats our kids as if they were her own. She is amazing with our cats, Nikodemus and Gwen, giving them the love they need when we are away. She sends us texts or emails to keep us updated (as well as the occasional facebook post) so we can vacation at ease! Highly recommend and reasonably priced!

Heather and Shannon are ROCK STARS!!! I know that my kids (1 lab and 2 yorkies) are safe, loved, and relaxed when I am gone. I received texts every time Shannon came to the house with details on each dog, their walk, and their demeanor. My two yorkies are 14 and 12 years old and get very anxious when I am not around. To my surprise they both ate (huge deal when I am not there) and when I got home they were calm. not neurotic and frantic. I can not thank them enough for the peace of mind that I have when I am not home!

Four Paws OC is the best dog walking and pet sitting service in the area. Heather is so concientious. She is so intuitive and gentle with my malti-​poo, Ginger. Every morning when I leave for work, I do so with confidence that Heather will take great care of her when she comes for her daily visits. I even say, «Auntie Heather will be here to see you today!», and Ginger’s eyes light up. I know, I’m a dork.
I would recommend Heather for overnights as well. Her security background give me the extra comfort that she is looking out for my house as well as my dog. Her employee, Shannon, is also wonderful.
She’s the best! I can’t say enough good things about Four Paws OC!

I use Heather, with Four Paws OC, for all my pet sitting needs. I have two dogs and two desert tortoises and when I leave town I know I can count on Heather to take good care of my pets. Its also nice to know that when I’m out of town I have someone I can trust checking in at my house multiple times a day. Heather is even willing to stay overnight to keep my fur babies happy.
She is great and I highly recommend her services.

Heather was a very reliable pet sitter. I would recommend to any and everyone. She always contacted me when she entered and exited my house and always sent me updates. Every single request was met and I couldn’t have had a better experience. Highly recommended.
