Doggy Day Care Bixby Area

About: Hi! I’m a devoted pet parent and passionate animal lover who treats every pet like family. For the past 4+ years, I’ve shared my life with my own fur baby, and she’s truly become my best friend. Spending my days caring, playing, and bonding with her has taught me how to build trust, show love, and pay attention to the little things that matter most to animals. What sets me apart is the level of care I bring by being thoughtful, detail-oriented, and heartwarming. I’ve learned to read pets' emotions, recognize when something isn’t quite right, and respond quickly. After navigating health issues with my own pup, I know how to stay calm, be prepared, and act fast when needed, always putting their safety and comfort first. I'm also very mindful of my surroundings during walks or social encounters. I’ve developed a strong sense of how to read the body language of unfamiliar dogs and can quickly spot when another dog may be feeling anxious or reactive. This helps me avoid risky situations and ensures that the dogs in my care are always safe and well-protected. Whether your pet needs a cuddle buddy, a playful companion, or someone to keep a watchful, loving eye while you’re away, I’m here to give them the same love and care I give my own. I'm currently available full time to care for your pets! I recently moved to the U.S. with my husband and our fur baby due to his job. I am going to school to learn english as english is my second language so I hope that Rover also gives me the oportunity to meet many animal lover parents and helps me get more involved with the community. On the side I love working out and when I am not with my family or at school I am typically running and excercising, as that is a big part of my life. I’m here to provide the specific care your pet needs whether it’s a visit, a walk, respecting their space, offering a safe crate or area to relax, or keeping track of feeding times. I pay close attention to every detail to make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable. I know how important peace of mind is when you’re away from your furry family member, so I’m happy to send as many photos and videos as you’d like. I truly love making pet parents feel calm and confident that their baby is in great hands.

About: Hello! My name is Allison and I am a certified dog-lover! I have over 15 years of experience taking care of my own, family members', and friends' dogs, as well one year of dog walking with over 100 dogs via the Wag app. I grew up taking care of an adorable toy poodle that I appropriately named Peppy. Ever since I can remember I've helped dog-sit and walk family's and friends' dogs of all kind, some of which include my aunt's adorable yet mischievous Bichon Frise and two clever Jack Russel Terriers, my good friend's sweet and enormous husky, and my grandma's energetic little mutt. In New York I had the privilege of caring for my roommate's full-size Golden Retriever, a gorgeous and gentle giant named Jack, who I regularly took out for walks, bathed, fed, and administered arthritis medication when my roommate was frequently out of town. I joined Rover and Wag after my own dog passed because I can never get enough of dogs and was already helping friends and neighbors dog walk and sit part time. Every minute I've worked with my clients' pups has been such a joy since I've joined. I've gained an average five star rating from over 100 reviews on Wag. I do my absolute best to ensure both the owner and pup are comfortable and happy at all times during our time together, and have taken the time to educate myself, practice, and perfect various techniques to ensure a happy and safe pup no matter the size, breed, or temperament. I took a few year hiatus from Rover due to frequent moves and other life circumstances, but I'm excited to say that I've settled in Huntington Beach and am taking bookings again! It's a privilege to gain the trust and share the love of your loyal, furry friends. I can't wait to meet and spend time with them! Having been a pup mom myself, I understand that pups need special love and care when they are in a new environment without Mom and Dad. Because I work from home, I am happy to say I have the ability to keep your pup company all day. From time to time, I may need to go out for 1-2 hours for errands or appointments but can arrange my schedule to avoid these or even bring them along with me if your pup struggles with separation anxiety. I live in the lovely neighborhood of Bixby Knolls. There is a semi-gated, private grassy area within my apartment complex that I take the pups out for potty. For longer walks, I love taking a stroll through the beautiful homes with generous sidewalks and grass in surrounding in the area. I typically take at least 2 twenty minutes walks per day with Meeka, but am more than happy to have an excuse to take longer and more frequent walks if your energetic pup needs more outdoor time. Because my remote work 8a-4p schedule is flexible, I'm able to play, cuddle, and take frequent potty breaks throughout the workday to ensure your pup gets plenty of love.

“Brittany was delightful to work with….prior to finalizing the booking we did a meet and greet and that allowed us to quickly see how natural she was with our pup, Reggie. Reggie immediately responded in a very positive manner to Brittany. Brittany’s own dog was mellow and good with Reggie. The day we dropped Reggie off, as soon as I got her out of the car she headed right for Brittany’s front door! Brittany is enthusiastic and caring, and put us at ease that we made the right decision choosing her, we will be rebooking with her soon! One last thing Brittany is great at communicating and sent multiple pictures to us of Reggie. Thanks Brittany see you again soon.”

“Mireya was terrific with our senior pup. She allowed us to do a meet-and-greet the day before so our pup could become familiar with her house. The next day our dog was ready and excited to go back. Mireya provided Abbie with a walk while we were away and we were pleased with the care she was given.”

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals for as long as I can remember. Growing up I cared for dogs, cats, rabbits, hamsters, and guinea pigs, and animals have always been a big part of my life. I currently have a cat of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone you trust with your pets. I also have a background as a licensed home childcare provider, where safety, patience, responsibility, and communication are part of my everyday routine. Caring for others comes naturally to me, whether they have two legs or four! I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine, provide updates, and make sure they feel comfortable, loved, and cared for while you’re away. I’m home throughout the day and have a flexible schedule to provide attention, care, and updates for your pet. I’m currently offering pet care alongside my childcare business as I transition into focusing more on animal care. Safety and comfort are always my priority. My experience as a licensed childcare provider has made me very mindful of supervision, routines, cleanliness, and creating a calm environment. I have a fully fenced yard and a small catio where cats can safely enjoy fresh air and enrichment. I’m also working on creating an enclosed cat-friendly garden space so cats can experience the outdoors safely without the risk of roaming away. Outdoor time will always depend on each cat’s personality, comfort level, and owner preference. Visiting pets will have their own comfortable spaces in my home, and I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and needs so they feel safe and cared for while their family is away.

About: For three years, I've been the primary caregiver for my own dogs since they were 8-week-old puppies, navigating everything from crate and potty training to teething and basic obedience. For the past year, I've also raised a kitten from 8 weeks old, becoming adept at her unique needs like playful energy management, litter training, and safe socialization. This hands-on experience has given me a deep understanding of the attention, patience, and routine that young pets thrive on, as well as the ability to read their cues. What sets me apart is my experience with pets in their crucial first years. I don't just "watch" puppies and kittens; I understand their developmental stages. My care is proactive and patient. I know that a tired puppy is a happy puppy, and an engaged kitten is a well-behaved kitten. I will send regular updates with photos, so you'll never miss a milestone or a cute moment. You can relax knowing your pet is with someone who genuinely understands their energy and needs, and will care for them with the same dedication I've shown my own. As a dedicated full-time student with a flexible class schedule, pet care is my primary daily commitment, not a side task. My routine is built around your pet's needs. I have ample time throughout the day for consistent feeding, long walks or play sessions, and providing companionship. My calendar is open for overnight stays, midday check-ins, and extended care, ensuring I can be there for your pet on their schedule. My priority is maintaining your pet's safe and trusted environment. In your home, I adhere strictly to your instructions and their established routine to minimize stress. I am vigilant about home security (locking doors, managing gates), pet-proofing spaces, and eliminating hazards. You can trust me to treat your home with the utmost respect, ensuring it is secure and clean when you return. My home is a calm, pet-friendly space prepared for safety and comfort. I provide a quiet area for rest, ample space for play, and a strict routine of supervised interaction. I maintain a clean, hazard-free environment and prioritize a peaceful and trustworthy atmosphere for every guest.

“Ximena watched my Macie girl and my dog had a great day with her. After Macie warmed up to Ximena, they were buddies plus her dog and mine got along splendidly. I will definitely bring Macie over there again for a play day.”

“Arianna took really good care of my Puppy Oakley. She walked him and gave him positive attention every time. She fed him on the assigned times and took him out to potty. She has very friendly dogs that were friendly towards Oakley. Recommend in the time of need. Thanks again!”

About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all breeds and sizes for over 15 years. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and love their pets like my own. I work from home with a flexible schedule, making it easy for me to drop in and care for your furry friend whenever needed. I’m happy to discuss what works best to meet your pet’s unique needs.

Inside, pets can relax in two separate living areas with comfy sofas, giving them plenty of space to feel at home. For drop-ins, I’m flexible. Your furry friend will be cared for in a secure, comfortable environment
