“Viktoriia was such an amazing pet sitter for us over the holidays. She took great care of our 3 cats and dog while we were away for 6 days. Super reliable, responsive, and sent lots of updates and photos. Most importantly, all our pets loved her and she spent so much quality time with them. We are so lucky to have found her!! Thank you Viktoriia!!”

“Alison did great with our dog Lola! She took her on long walks, sent us pictures throughout the day, and we even came home to a clean house, which was much appreciated! Would definitely recommend Alison to watch over your pets”

“Kaitlin was wonderful and is a great communicator! She sent us a picture of the dogs while we were gone which we really appreciated! Looking forward to our next booking and will continue to book with her in the future. :)”


About: Caring for animals has always been a big part of my life! I have personal and professional experience with dogs, cats, birds, small animals, and reptiles. As a recent graduate with a bachelor's degree in animal science, I have extensive knowledge in pet care and animal enrichment. I am currently working remotely, so I have plenty of time in the day to entertain and care for your pet/pets if I were to be house sitting. Alternatively, I have plenty of availability for drop in visits or walks as needed. For house sitting, I would carry on your pet's schedule as if you were home. Walks, food, and any other hygiene or health care routines would be carried out as usual. I am also capable of maintaining home care routines and chores as well, garbage, watering plants, etc.
“John was great! We booked last minute. I went with him based on his reviews, and they’re all accurate. He was prompt and our dog took to him immediately. We got photos while we were out and Faust was so relaxed when we got back. We will definitely book with him again in the future. Honestly, 10 out of 10.”

About: Hi! I have taken care of dogs almost my entire life. I got my first dog when I was 12 and from there on out I have always had at least one. I have always pet sit for family and friends when needed and now I’m looking forward to expanding my services to others. I live in a home and have a fenced in yard. I am used to giving medications if needed and can also care for senior dogs (I have one myself!) I have 2 dogs as of now so your dog will always have someone to play with 😊 I work from home so I am home nearly all day unless I have an errand to run I work from home so I am always home! I also have a backyard where they can run around whenever they want. I usually leave the door cracked for easy in/out access and I have a fully fenced in yard I have a fenced in yard and do frequent potty breaks! If your dog is crate trained I can keep them on whatever schedule they are used to at home. Throughout the years I’ve had to administer my fair share of medication so if your dog needs any medication I would be more than happy to administer! If they come to my home, they will always have a friend to play with since I have 2 dogs myself 🙂

About: I have taken care of animals since I was a kid! I love meeting new animals and caring for them. My experience ranges from boarding animals for 7 days, to doing stop-by visits multiple times per day. I not only love animals but I love giving families the peace of mind that their animal is in good hands. I’m a very caring mother and pet owner who is diligent and flexible. Having pets of my own my whole life, I’ve learned how to care for, engage and love all sorts of animals. I’m looking for families that need help either as a one-time getaway or on a regular basis! I’m happy to help. My goal in life is to have time and flexibility to be with my family, and caring for pets allows me that freedom! Looking forward to helping you and your furry friend. I’m currently available to help in any capacity! Feel free to reach out. I am a full-time mom and have an open schedule. I have a large home with plenty of room for your pet! There are grass areas and plenty of shade. My neighborhood has great trails where we can walk dogs. I love all animals and always treat them well! I will be sure to send you updates and photos if requested.
“Emma was amazing with our two dogs while we were on vacation. Our dogs instantly loved her, she was incredibly communicative and sent so many updates/photos/videos. We were able to truly relax knowing they were in good hands and will definitely use her again.”

About: Hi! I'm Faith, and I offer loving, dependable pet sitting for dogs and other pets. With 10 years of experience caring for and walking animals, I focus on comfort, safety, and keeping routines consistent—so your pet feels calm, happy, and well cared for while you're away. I'm attentive, responsible, and always make sure you're kept updated during each visit. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine because I am not currently working and have a flexible schedule. My plan is to start veterinary assistant program which allows me to continue learning about animal health and care while remaining available for pet sitting. I have a secured fenced yard and care for my senior cat, who requires specialized food and subcutaneous fluids twice weekly. Managing his medical needs has given me valuable experience with attentive, consistent care and reinforced the importance of patience, observation, and following detailed instructions. I treat every pet as if they were my own and understand how important it is for owners to feel confident their pets are in capable hands.
About: I have more than 30 years of experience. I started dog-sitting for friends and family and through private referrals. I have cared for dogs of all ages. I will keep you updated with photos and messages. And for additional peace of mind, I have pet-sitter insurance (certificate available upon request). Doggy socializing (the dog park, Starbucks, restaurant patios, doggy play dates with their friends or your fur baby's other favorite hangout spot) are included during overnight stays with dog parents' permission of course. I work from home which allows me to give your fur babies the love and attention that you would want for them and that they deserve. My aim is to provide next level service and to help lessen the stress of being away from your fur baby. All I need is a place to crash (I don't mind sharing the bed with your dogs), the Wi-Fi password, and your doggos to hang out with. I’ll make sure they’re comfortable, safe, relaxed, doted on and well looked after while you’re away. Rest assured, during overnight bookings, your pets will be the only ones that I take care of. Meaning, I won't book any drop-ins or walks with other clients.
“Words cannot thank Nancy, and how well she took care of our dogs. Luna and Juno can be nervous around new people but they took a liking right away. Nancy is very calm, and great with dogs and was able to extend her time with them as well. She will be our go to sitter for anytime we are away.”
“Hailey did a wonderful job with our two dogs! She managed them very well and took care of them like they were her own :) She sent daily updates and photos, kept our home in good condition, and she took our dogs for walks. She is very responsive and responsible. We would definitely ask Hailey to dog sit our pets again!”

“Lisa is AWESOME! She stayed at our house with our two Goldendoodles (who can be a handful) and it was a great experience. The dogs loved her and I think they were sadder to see her go than for us to get home! She shared lots of pics and updates and made us feel very secure knowing our dogs were so well cared for. We will definitely be using Lisa again in the future!”


About: Hi! I'm Jon, I'm in my early 40s, and I live with my partner in a condo in Aliso Viejo, CA. (I would be the sole service provider) Until recently, my #1 hobby was spending time with my dog, Mae. I loved taking her out on nature trails and all kinds of adventures (in 2024, I even took Mae on a family road trip all the way up to Seattle and back!). After having her for 9 years in our home, I sadly lost my sweet girl in September 2025; she was about 13 years old and unfortunately had developed several unforeseen medical issues. There were a lot of long days and nights of administering medications and emergency vet visits until I made the hard decision to have her pass in comfort at home. I'm still healing from the loss: since I worked from home, Mae was my shadow all day, every day. I have used Rover for many years, but I'm easing into the other side of being a service provider. I'm not ready to get a new dog just yet, but I have a lot of love to give and I'm ready to care for your fur baby on a part-time basis. I'm currently job hunting, so my availability is close to 100% at the moment: I can sit in your home, do drop-in visits, or have your dog(s) stay with me. My condo is completely safe for dogs, my neighborhood is quiet and safe, and there are some great walking routes as well as a dog park nearby. I look forward to hearing from you! I'm currently job hunting, but have been working remotely for the past 13 years. Whatever new job I land will either be Remote or Hybrid. Weekdays are best, though I can occasionally care for your dog(s) on weekends as well. With my own dog Mae, I was feeding her twice a day, taking her on 5-6 small walks a day, and making sure her brain was stimulated throughout my work day. In my home: I live in a two-story condo with a loft. Most of the square footage is on the second floor, with a 13-step staircase from the ground floor. For older dogs or those with any hip or joint issues, I have no problem carrying them up or down the stairs. The majority of the main floor has either carpet or large, thick area rugs; the rest of the flooring is wood laminate. I have no problem letting dogs up on furniture or the bed as long as they're fairly clean (especially paws). Your dog will have full access to fresh, cold, filtered water as well as fans/air conditioning, toys and brain enrichment puzzles. I will follow your instructions on what, if any, treats they are allowed to have (and how many). In your home: you make the rules and I will follow them to the letter! I will treat your home and personal property with respect. If I have a question (and I will probably think of lots of them), I will ask you instead of assuming what the answer is. I don't smoke, I don't do drugs, I have my own car, and I'd love nothing more than to stay home with your dog(s) all day.
About: Hi! I'm a vet tech student at Cal Poly with full availability over the summer and tons of hands on experience with a variety of animals, big and small.

I am trained in basic animal care and medicine, plus previous pet-sitting experience so I am well equiped for whatever needs your pet may have. I'm located in Orange County and able to drive. I have a very flexible schedule, full availability, and am always happy to make extra time to spend with your fur babies, I can't wait to meet them! My knowledge and experience in both pet-sitting and animal healthcare make me a trustworthy candidate to ensure your pet's safety and well-being. I am a very organized and detail oriented person, and I have prior experience in house-sitting and pet sitting. I'm happy to follow whatever directions you may leave, your pet is my first priority ❤️
“I cannot say enough nice things about our experience with Silvia. My dog absolutely loves her and she did a wonderful job dog sitting and house sitting while we were away. I highly recommend her.”

“Anna was prompt, communicative, friendly, and warm. She brought her son at my invitation and he was so cute and so kind to animals. When we ran late, she was very understanding! We will be asking Anna to sit for us again!”

Lisa took great care of our shiba, Kuma. She was responsive, communicated 2x per day and sent photos, put us at ease with her confidence and warm nature. Most importantly, Kuma was relaxed and not stressed out after Lisa cared for him - not an easy feat. We’d be happy to have Lisa care for Kuma in the future.

Jen has been WONDERFUL with our dog and cat! She always sends us picture updates so that we know that our animals are happy and safe. Jen was always flexible with our weird schedules (my husband and I both work nightshift). We hope Jen can watch our dog and cat again in the future and would recommend her to anyone looking for a very caring pet sitter!

Thank you so very much Jen & Scott!!!! I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I was very nervous leaving my 16-month-old black lab, Roxie, with people I didn’t know, but this couple completely exceeded every expectation. They treated Roxie like she was their own—taking her everywhere with them, keeping her active, exercised, and happy the entire time we were gone. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing she wasn’t just being watched, but truly cared for and included in their daily life. On top of that, they left my home absolutely spotless, which was such a thoughtful and appreciated touch. They are kind, responsible, communicative, and clearly love what they do. I would trust them again in a heartbeat and highly recommend them to anyone looking for exceptional care for their pet. Thank you both for taking such amazing care of Roxie!

She did an amazing job watching my pup and I truly couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. She took the time to do a meet and greet beforehand, followed all of his care notes closely, and made sure he got plenty of exercise and ball time, which is so important for a high-energy working dog like him. Mason can be anxious, but she clearly has a deep understanding of dogs and knew exactly how to handle his needs and routines. This was the first time I’ve felt genuinely comfortable leaving him for more than just a quick overnight stay, and it gave me huge peace of mind knowing he was in such capable hands.

Samantha took great care of Jax. I got lots of updates and pictures and confirmations that she was putting in the extra effort for his care. The house was clean and his box was unkept when i got home. He warmed up to her slowly which means she took it at his pace which i greatly appreciate. It means she knows how shy cats can be. Thank you so much and Jax and i Greatly appreciate all the extra efforts. Means so much when I’m away! My old man is almost 19 Now and his care is imprornat to me.

Elizabeth was an amazing house sitter for our four huskies. She took great care of our dogs and kept us updated the entire time with thorough updates while we were traveling internationally. I am very grateful for the care my dogs received from Elizabeth and would definitely recommend her!

Joyce has been a blessing to our dog Oliver and to my family over the years. Oliver enjoyed the special attention he received from Joyce and we loved the over the top care he received from Joyce. As Oliver got older, Joyce easily adapted to his changing needs with love and grace. The only reason we could go on vacation was because Joyce was with our Oliver. Joyce sent us pictures of Oliver while we were gone so we can see he was doing good! Also, Joyce took great care of our house and it was always welcoming upon our return. We are grateful to Joyce for her care and special connection with Oliver over the years...and also with us. We always felt very comfortable while she was in our home with Oliver!
Ryan was excellent. He took great care of our dog Karma while we were at the hospital for the birth of our baby. Very reliable, flexible, and respectful of our home. Clear communication, thoughtful updates, and genuine care. Highly recommend him for anyone looking for a dependable sitter who handles everything smoothly and professionally.

Tatiana was wonderful with my two dogs. I was in a class for 12 hours and she was very willing to spend the day with them. She interacted with them, sent me pictures, kept me updated and took them on lots of walks. It was a great day for the dogs. I would highly recommend Tatiana and look forward to shaving her watch the dogs again in the future.
