Pet Sitting & Drop Ins in Casa De Santiago, Santa Ana, CA

About: I love dogs of all ages and breeds, I even love cats, snakes, and yes I'll even feed your fish! Animals are sometimes better than people so I understand how much love someone can have for them which means it's very important that I take care of your loved one as if they were my own. Full with love and adventure or cuddles! currently working part-time in the evening three times a week so I have plenty of time to fulfill all your dog sitting or walking or checking in needs. My apartment is cozy next to a big outdoor mall so it's a great place to go on walks. It was cozy for any pet to enjoy my company.

“Tala is exactly what you want to find on Rover! Responsible, respectful and communicative. Took wonderful care of my cat, my home and my peace of mind while I was away! Extremely thorough with twice daily drop in updates, including adorable pictures, but most importantly confirming that she was flawlessly executing the instructions I had left. I will rebook with her every time, and genuinely believe my cat is looking forward to me leaving so he can spend more time with his new bestie! 😻🙏🏻🤩”

About: I’ve grown up having dogs and cats my whole life! They bring me so much joy, and life is so much better with our fluffy friends. Growing up, I’ve been blessed with Shih Tzu’s, a Maltese, a labradoodle, a golden doodle, Siamese cats, a tuxedo cat, and a ragdoll. Besides my own pets, I have lots of experience pet sitting Dalmatians, German Shepherds, and indoor/outdoor cats. I love to spend time with them and will ensure they have everything they need to be happy and healthy. I also have lots of experience administering medicine. I promise to love your fur baby and treat them as I would my own. ❤️ I will talk to them, sing to them, and of course, spoil them! I’m a full-time musician and my week days are usually very flexible. I have shows during evenings and weekends, but I can always make time to check in on your pets for potty and feeding times. With my own dogs and cats, I know how important attention and quality time are for their health and happiness. I will follow your instructions on your pet’s needs, including walks, feeding times, treats, medications, and play!

“Highly recommend Andrea! She's dropped in on my pups a few times now and definitely does more for them than she really needs to! I always get lonely pictures and videos of their time with her.”

I know how serious it can be when something is just a little off it could always lead to bigger problems

About: My name is Ashlyn. I have been around pets my entire life and I finally have one of my own. Her name is Charlie. She is a Bassett hound and is 3 years old. I have always loved animals. They show unconditional love and are amazing. I currently work full time, but I am available on weekdays, after 5pm and my weekends are usually open. I will do my best to make myself available. The way I care for my own pet in my home is giving her plenty of time to play outside. I also take her on walks.

About: I genuinely love building bonds with the pets I care for. I treat every animal like they’re my own and give them plenty of affection and attention. I am very reliable, communicative and respectful of owners instructions and I always make sure pets feel safe, loved and understood. I offer pet walking and pet sitting services for both dogs and cats, and I'm committed to making sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you're away. While I haven't owned a dog or cat myself, I've had a guinea pig and have experience caring for my friends' pets, including feeding, walking, playtime, and giving them lots of attention. In the past I have watched my sisters cats multiple times while she’s been away and friends have asked me to watch or walk their dogs when they are unavailable. I understand how important it is to follow routines closely and respect each pet's unique personality and needs. I am currently a full time student in university, but I have free time on certain weekdays which includes Tuesdays and Thursdays after 2:30 or before 11am where I will have plenty of time to do drop in visits. I am completely available on the weekends from Friday to Sunday. When I’m in a clients home I am respectful of their space and make sure to leave everything just the way I found it. I keep pets on their usual schedule, I always spend time giving extra attention and comfort so they don’t feel lonely while their owners are away. I send regular updates and photos so owners know they are in good hands.

About: I have been dog sitting for family friends and neighbors since I was very young! I have also had pets of my own, and now that I am at college, I miss them so much. I would love to provide care for your pet when you can't be there! I am currently a college student majoring in dance and communication, and my weekdays are very busy with rehearsals. I am mostly available for weekends! Having had and cared for pets all my life, I have a pretty good understanding of safety for your pet. I will do whatever else you need to feel secure! Sending check-in photos of your pet, etc.

The comfort of your pets is my number one priority, and I am happy to accommodate experiences to disrupt their schedules and environment as little as possible, especially for high-stressed friends.

About: I’ve spent the last 8 years being the best dog mom to my chocolate Lab, Iris—she’s my family and best friend. From training her as a puppy to keeping up with her endless energy, I’ve learned what it takes to care for dogs with love, patience, and plenty of playtime. Whether your pup needs a walking buddy, belly rubs, or just someone to hang out with, I’ve got them covered. As a dog owner myself, pet care is already a part of my daily life! I’ve been caring for my dog Iris for the past 8 years, so fitting in walks, feedings, and playtime comes naturally to me. As a student, I only have classes two days a week, which leaves me plenty of time to care for other pets. Whether your pup needs a walk, some company, or overnight care, I can easily work around my schedule to make sure they’re happy and well cared for—just like I do for my own dog every day!" If I’m pet sitting at your home, I treat both your pet and space with the utmost care and respect. I ensure your dog gets the attention, exercise, and companionship they need while also keeping your home tidy and secure. No matter where I’m watching your pup, their safety and happiness are always my top priority!

“Patricia has been an absolute blessing for our family and our pup, Ollie! She is always punctual, reliable, and genuinely caring. From day one, it was clear how much she truly loves animals and takes her job seriously. Ollie is always happy and well taken care of after his walks, which gives us so much peace of mind. We really appreciate her professionalism, kindness, and consistency. I highly recommend Patricia to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate dog nanny!”
