Cat Sitting in Costa Mesa

“Vi is without a doubt the best pet sitter we have ever had. She provided the most detailed updates and photos daily. She took the time to take our cat to the vet at our request after he experienced some relapsing symptoms of a prior injury. Cannot recommend her more. We felt like our cat was so loved and cared for under her watch.”

“Kristen took great care of my 2 cats. She responded quickly to my booking request, was responsive before and during her visits, and sent great pictures. I would rebook her again”

About: I just love animals and I think it's so cool that we can form friendships with no language commonality at all. I have cared for old dogs, puppies, sick dogs, deaf dogs, hyper dogs, service dogs, dogs that could use more training, dogs who like to hike, and dogs that would rather sit in my tote bag. I love them all, and I will love and care for yours like it's my own. I choose my own work schedule for the most part, which means I have ample time to be with your pet! I am available most every day! I go on so many walks, and it's even better to have a dog that I can take with me. I am happy to stay at your place, or bring your dog home with me. I have a pet-friendly apartment with access to a fenced-in yard. I can easily crate your dog if needed, but certainly don't require that.

“Jenny is always our top choice to make sure our 20 year old calico Abbey gets the attention and care she deserves. Jenny goes above and beyond, responsive, and accommodating!”

“Daphne was great! She was super communicative and sent lots of pictures. She was able to medicate one of my cats easily. I would definitely rebook with her!”

“Shianne took such good care of our two cats this summer. One of our cats is pretty timid, Shianne went out of her way to make him feel more comfortable. That meant a lot knowing our little guy wasn’t hiding scared during her visits while we were away. I highly recommend Shianne!”

About: I have experience with a wide range of dogs, ranging from Mastiffs to Maltipoos. I started independently watching dogs when I was about 11. Growing up, my family had Boxers (a higher energy breed) and French Mastiffs (a lower energy breed). Living with these dogs, I gained experience when it comes to understanding preferences, triggers, and personality. I have experience caring for older dogs (one being 19 years old!) and knowing how to give medications when needed. I also have experience caring for puppies (10 weeks+) and understanding training and behavioral methods. I am comfortable with larger breeds, medium breeds, and smaller breeds! I am currently going to back to school, so I am looking for work that fits in with my school schedule. My current schedule is as follows: Monday: 7am - 4pm Tuesday: 7am - 8pm Wednesday: 7am - 8pm Thursday: 7am - 4pm Friday: 7am - 8pm Saturday: 8am - 8pm Sunday: 8am - 8pm I am calm and comfortable around new dogs. I know that may not be the case for the dog when a stranger comes into their home. I have experience with more shy dogs and in order to gain trust and familiarity, I've found that spending time in their space without forcing them to interact, works best. I also like to try to give them treats so they know I'm not there to harm them. Making sure they have enough water is also important, as well as sufficient time outside (whether in a backyard, front yard, deck, or a walk). If they want play or belly scratches, I'm open to it all.

About: As a lifelong pet lover, I’ve been around dogs since I was a baby and helped raise an Australian shepherd puppy. I’ve gained experience caring for furry friends of all sizes and personalities. I’ve pet sat for friends and neighbors, providing trusted care for both dogs and cats, including feeding, walks, and plenty of playtime. Whether it’s a high energy pup or cuddly kitty, I’m dedicated to keeping your pet happy, safe, and loved while you’re away! With a flexible work from home schedule, I’m available to provide personalized pet care before and after my 9 to 5 job, as well as during breaks throughout the day. I can offer morning and evening visits for feedings, litter box maintenance, playtime, and cuddles, ensuring your animals routine stays consistent. Weekends are open for extended care, including multiple visits or longer stays for those who need it. My work from home setup allows me to be responsive and attentive, giving your pet the love and care they deserve! I treat every home with respect, securing doors, following instructions precisely, and providing daily photo updates via River. Background checked and committed to trustworthiness, I’m dedicated to keeping your pets and home safe while delivering loving, professional care.

“Liv was sooo great with my kitty! She helped drop-in to feed & play with my cat when I was out of town. She was very communicative & my cat warmed up to her instantly! 10/10 would recommend.”

“Krista and Kelsey took care of my cat for two weeks with drop-in visits, and I couldn’t have asked for better sitters. They were always on time, extremely reliable, and fantastic with communication. I received regular updates and the sweetest photos every day, which really gave me peace of mind while I was away. What really stood out was how thoughtful they were. Krista even brought toys for my cat, which was such a kind and unexpected surprise! My cat absolutely loved the extra attention and care. You can tell they truly care about animals, and it shows in everything they do. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy, attentive, and compassionate pet sitters! Christine (Kitty)”

About: An animal lover since I can remember, nothing makes me happier than making animals happy. It brings me so much joy to make sure your dog has a great day when you're not able to be there. Growing up with all different kinds of animals has been a blessing. I am very knowledgeable in caring for dogs and will take amazing care of yours. I had my first dog when I was a baby, we grew up together as our birthdays were 10 days apart. I grew to love dogs and appreciate them for who they are-- amazing and intelligent creatures. I always ask myself how humans got so lucky. Unconditional love and support as long as we treat them right, what more can we ask for. I recently rescued my dog Zelda over two years ago and raising her has been such an incredible experience. Dogs are my passion and I can't wait to meet yours! I currently do have a full time job but I would love to spend my free time caring for your fur babies! Always looking to meet new clients! I can take them on a neighborhood walk, to the local park, wherever they prefer! If they want to stay home for a visit, we can play with toys and try to learn some new tricks!

About: I grew up with dogs (a Corgi before a German Shepherd), as well as cats. As an adolescent, I attended a UC Davis Behavioral Training Program specifically for the German Shepherd breed. I learned more about why dogs bite, and how to train them to behave. My BA in psychology (hey, gotta try to milk my college degree) reinforced many of the concepts in the animal behavioral training program I'd previously attended. Positive reinforcement is one of my favorite training techniques. I love using vocal positivity (praise), as well as toys and (if okay with the owner) treats to help pets be their best selves. Pet care is something I miss when I'm not already teaching puppy yoga on Saturdays and Sundays. Since I don't currently have a pet of my own, I'd love to use my free time to pet-sit someone else's furry friend. I care for pets the way I've cared for my own in the past: with unconditional love and attentiveness. I've learned how different pets are, and the importance of catering my approach to match whatever each animal needs.

“We just used Sarah again while we were out of town! She was wonderful as always. So attentive to the needs of our pup and his happiness is a top priority for her!”

About: Hi, I am an Orange County flight instructor! I schedule my own hours with my students so the flexibility allows me to help keep your pet happy and healthy whenever needed! I love all animals and enjoy spending time with them as if they were my own. I have availability between flights every day or all day when I am off, and am available every night. I can make quick drop-ins, extended walks, or overnight stays. My primary reason for pet sitting is that I miss having my own animals! Taking care of your pet eases your schedule, gets your pet the attention they deserve, and allows me to spend time with my favorite buds. I treat all homes and animals as if they were my own.

About: I have taken care of animals all of my life and enjoy doing so. I will keep you updated on his or hers activities and make sure they get their proper exercise, nutrition, and of course lots of cuddles and love. I am a school teacher and I have plenty of time this summer to watch and play with your pets. I love animals and would love to help you out! I have a small 6 lb sweet Chihuahua named, Roxy Lou. She is great with other dogs and would love the companionship! I hope you pick us to take care of your beloved pets!

About: I’ve taken care of mostly small to medium dogs and cats, for a little over a decade. neighbors, friends, and families have relied on me to help when they are out of town and I love every moment with their fur babies <3 I am currently working part time! I am free in the early mornings and evenings but can accommodate afternoons, during my lunch hour for visits and walks :) I would love to meet you and your pet(s) prior to the scheduled visits/ walks:) that way, I can know how to best care for them and keep myself and them safe

“Matthew did an awesome job.taking care of my very kiddish kitty. He was patient, calm, and observant. My Spotty is tricky and Matthew was just wonderful”

About: I’ve grown up surrounded by animals ,especially dogs and have years of experience caring for cats as well. I’ve long been the go-to sitter for friends and family, and after 8 years in corporate HR I’m now turning my lifelong passion into my full-time job! I’m experienced with everything from energetic puppies to senior pets who need extra care, and I also volunteer regularly with local animal organizations specifically Priceless Pets. Animals are a natural part of my everyday life, so pet care is already built into my routine. I structure my days around feeding, walks, playtime, training, and any special care needs and I prioritize giving each pet plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. Whether it’s multiple daily visits or recurring weekly stays, I plan my schedule to be flexible so I can consistently show up for the pets in my care. I keep pets on their normal routine by following feeding schedules, giving fresh water, walks, playtime, and lots of attention. I can give medication, reinforce training, and handle puppy or senior needs. In clients’ homes I respect their space and leave it as I found it and in my own home I create a safe cozy environment where pets feel comfortable and cared for.
