“I’m so grateful for Greta! I had to go away and was so nervous about leaving my Watson. But we were so blessed to find Greta! She’s responsible, loving, on time, creative, and goes above and beyond…and beyond! 100% recommend!”

About: I've taken care of my friends' dogs for years and adopted my own puppy 3 years ago! I've learned a lot about dog training the past few years, including loose leash walking, clicker training, working on reactivity, recall training, and getting through the puppy and teenage phase! I am familiar with positive reinforcement training and balanced training and can help keep up any training you have been working on with your dog while I take care of them! I'm familiar with various collars - regular, prong, slip, gentle leaders, and harnesses. I'm currently taking a work hiatus from being a pharmacist! So I have flexible scheduling during the day & evenings to help take care of your pup! I'm typically at the ceramics studio on Fridays, but if you let me know 2 weeks in advance of the Friday you need me, I can make arrangements. I am here to help your pets feel as safe and happy as they can while you're away. Just let me know their normal routine (no matter how detailed) and I'm happy to keep it the same for them! I can help administer medications if needed, and can put together multi-step meals with toppers as well!

“KK was awesome! She walked our dog twice while we were away for the day. She refilled his water and even brought in a large package that was on our porch. She went above and beyond! We highly recommend her and will definitely be reaching out to her anytime we are in need of an extra hand for our little pupper! Thanks KK!”

About: I'm the guy at parties hanging out with the dog. I have an adoring obsession with dogs but have been cursed with just bad enough allergies to not have a permanent one myself. Fortunately I've been able to live vicariously through petsitting for friends, but they can only go on so many vacations (despite my insistence)! I grew up with a lhasa Apso named Buster, two terriers named Haley and Comet, and a Chihuahua named Dodger, along with occasionally pet sitting for extended family and friends. I miss having a pooch around and would love to give yours a safe, relaxing place until you get back. I work a full-time job from home and my weekends are pretty flexible. I have some hobbies I like to do on the weekends, but am rarely gone for more than 3 hours and are low commitment so I can skip them if need be. I live in a very clean and safe area in Irvine that allows for nice walks with plenty of exploring. My apartment is a pretty standard 2 bedroom with decent space.

“Paulene was amazing. She took such good care of Charlie. She sent detailed information about each visit and list of fun pictures. She’s very sweet and extremely professional. I will definitely use her again. Highly recommend.”

About: I specialize in cat drop in visits and understand that pets thrive on routine, calm handling, and trusted care in their own home. My approach is observant, patient, and detail-oriented, especially for shy, senior, or medically managed pets! During each visit, I make sure your pet is comfortable, their space stays clean, and their normal routine is respected. I’m attentive to subtle behavior changes, potty/litter box habits, appetite, and overall demeanor, and I’ll let you know right away if something seems off. I provide thorough rover updates with photos, notes on eating, litter box use, and mood, so you can travel with confidence knowing your pet is well cared for. I’m happy to support: -single or multi-pet households -timed feedings and special instructions -oral medication and supplements -senior or shy pets who need a gentle presence If you’re looking for a reliable, low-stress, pet-savvy-sitter, I’d love to set up a meet & greet! About me: Attentive sitter providing detailed updates, medication support, and calm care for anxious pets! Schedule Flexibly With Me! I work from home and am able to be mobile for my job. Ideally, I’m popping in to your home to provide check in services, play, and attend to any other needs (food, water refresh, walking). Depending on extent of need I may be able to do weekends as well. I do have a full time remote job as well. I’m doing this in part because I enjoy caring for animals, and also to help cover some recent vet costs! Your Pet’s Safety Is My Priority! I focus on pet safety and comfort above all else. I am able to tailor my service according to the needs of you and your pet. Your Privacy: I understand the need for privacy and care when it comes to your home. I have no issue with remaining in designated areas or with cameras around common spaces. I will accommodate your comfort.

About: I have taken care of both dogs and cats for the past 10+ years. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to care for their pets through walking, house sitting, feeding, giving medication, etc. I am usually their go-to petsitter since I am known to be reliable, responsive, and love spending time with animals. Excited to meet your fur baby and get to know them! I work from home so my hours are flexible. My schedule is usually pretty open, although I am more available in the evenings and weekends. Happy to work something out with you! I can take your dog on walks, play catch, play tug of war with toys, and practice tricks with them! With cats, I can play with wand toys, stuffed animals and I love giving them cuddles!

“Tim has been walking our dogs for several weeks now. He is absolutely amazing. He cares, he shares when there are weird behaviors. He is reliable, punctual and communication. Has always been great.”

About: I understand family pets are your world, my family dogs Darla and Pandora are everything and I’m glad to meet your family too! I will give them the best care possible always. I would love to be more active while playing with animals! I’m currently self employed with a flexible schedule so I can drop in whenever! I can easily drop in and walk your beloved animals, just like I care for my own. I’m looking for local pets to give lots of love too!

“Cie did a great job with our dogs! We received a lot of great updates and clear communication, letting us know our pets were taken care of during their walk. We even got a ton of cute pictures and videos. Thank you, Cie for taking care of our dogs!”

“Summer was amazing! Summer, walked my dog for an hour each day over the course of a week, and I couldn’t be happier with the care and attention provided. Summer was communicative, and treated my dog with genuine kindness. I really appreciated the daily updates and photos—great peace of mind while I was on vacation. Highly recommend and would absolutely book again!”

About: Hi, I'm Tanchi! I'm an active empty-nester living in Irvine's Great Park neighborhood, and animals have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. Over the years I've shared my home with dogs, cats, guinea pigs, and fish. With two grown kids out of the house, I have plenty of time, patience, and love to give your pets. I genuinely love walking dogs (the longer the walk, the better), and I keep fit and active, so keeping up with an energetic pup, or slowing down for a senior dog, is no problem at all. What you can count on: reliable communication with plenty of photo updates (or fewer if you prefer), respect for your routines and your home, and care as attentive as I'd give my own pets. Living right by the Great Park means excellent walking routes practically at my doorstep. I'm new to Rover and building my reputation one happy pet at a time, so I'm offering introductory rates for now. You'll get lifelong pet experience and extra-attentive care at a great price. In return, I hope to earn your 5-star review! I'd love to meet you and your furry family member. Let's set up a Meet & Greet!

About: Living life and caring for animals. I’ve had many animals throughout my life. I had my sweet little miniature dachshund for 17 years. Hi! I’m a reliable, caring dog lover who genuinely enjoys spending time with animals. I know how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pet in someone else’s care, so I treat every dog as if they were my own. I provide dependable, personalized walks and drop-in visits with plenty of attention, exercise, fresh water, and of course lots of love. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine and any special instructions you provide. I understand that every dog is different. Some want a long walk and lots of activity, while others prefer a slower stroll and plenty of sniffing. I take the time to get to know each dog’s personality and make sure they feel safe and comfortable. You can expect communication, photos during visits, and a dependable person who will take your pet’s care seriously. I would love the opportunity to meet you and your pup or cat! Hi! I’m Leah, and I’d love the opportunity to care for your pets! I’m a dependable, caring and attentive pet sitter and dog walker who understands that every pet has their own personality, routine and needs. For dogs, I offer personalized walks and drop-in visits focused on exercise, companionship and making sure your pup feels happy and cared for while you’re away. I’ll follow your instructions carefully, keep your pet’s routine as consistent as possible, provide fresh water and send you updates and photos so you know how your pet is doing. I also love caring for cats and understand that cats often need a different kind of attention. I’m happy to follow their normal feeding and litter-box routine, provide playtime and affection when they want it, and give them the space they need when they prefer to relax. I’m available with flexibility and can dedicate time to giving your pets individual attention rather than simply stopping by and rushing off. I’m also a very responsible person who takes instructions seriously and treats your home and pets with the same care and respect I would want for my own. My goal is simple: for you to feel comfortable knowing your pets are safe, loved and well cared for while you’re away. I’d be happy to meet you and your pets beforehand so we can make sure we’re a good fit! I am currently a stay at home mom. All 3 kiddos are in school. I have availability throughout my day. I can pop over after I drop them off to school. I have a fenced in small back yard. Also, live in a beautiful area with plenty of sidewalks and an amazing trail just a few blocks away.

About: Certified dog trainer with a licensed and insured pet care business! I’m also a proud dog mom and genuinely love working with dogs. I understand that every dog has their own personality, energy level, and needs, and I provide personalized care based on what works best for each dog. As a trainer, I can incorporate basic obedience, leash manners, and positive reinforcement into walks and everyday interactions when appropriate. I enjoy helping dogs build confidence, practice good habits, and get the physical exercise and mental stimulation they need. Whether your dog needs a walk, drop-in visit, or training, my goal is to provide reliable, attentive care while making sure your dog feels happy, comfortable, and safe. I’m a full-time pet care provider, so pet care is my primary focus and I have a flexible schedule throughout the week. I’m available for dog walks, drop-in visits, and training, and I’m especially happy to accommodate recurring weekly walks and consistent routines. Safety and trust are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each dog’s routine, personality, and specific needs so I can provide care that is comfortable and consistent for them. For walks and training, I use secure leashes and equipment appropriate for each dog and pay close attention to their surroundings and behavior. For drop-in visits, I follow your instructions carefully and make sure your dog is safe, comfortable, and well cared for throughout my visit. As a certified dog trainer, I’m experienced in understanding canine body language and creating a positive, calm experience for every dog in my care.

About: Your pet will be treated like family. ❤️ I’ve cared for dogs and cats for more than 20 years, including puppies, seniors, multiple pets, and dogs with different energy levels and personalities. I currently have a Pomeranian and have previously cared for multiple dogs and cats. I work from home, so I’m able to provide dependable and attentive care. I especially enjoy long walks, jogging, and helping dogs get the exercise they need. If your dog is high-energy or needs more than a standard walk, jogging and extended exercise are available for an additional charge. I also enjoy reinforcing basic training and good manners during walks. I have a large fenced backyard and experience volunteering at animal shelters. I’m loving, punctual, careful, and attentive to each pet’s individual needs. My goal is to give your dog a safe, enjoyable experience while giving you peace of mind that they’re being well cared for. Need a regular walking partner for your high-energy dog? I’d love to help keep them happy, active, and exercised! 🐶 I work from home, which gives me flexibility to provide consistent and reliable care. I’m especially interested in recurring dog walks and can work with your dog’s regular routine. I offer standard walks as well as longer walks, jogging, and extra exercise for an additional charge for dogs who need to burn more energy. Your pet’s safety is my top priority. I’m careful about following your instructions, your dog’s routine, and any special needs or preferences. I’m punctual, responsible, and attentive during walks. I’ll make sure your dog is safely handled and supervised throughout the visit.

About: What sets me apart as a pet sitter is that I combine responsibility with genuine attentiveness to each dog’s individual personality and needs. I don’t just “watch” dogs — I actively engage with them to make sure they feel safe, stimulated, and loved while you’re away. I have experience caring for both puppies and senior dogs. With puppies, I pay great attention to how they feel and I’m very patient at caring for them. With senior dogs, I’m patient and attentive to mobility needs, medication schedules, slower walking pace, and comfort routines. I pay close attention to subtle behavior changes that may indicate discomfort. I’m also detail-oriented when it comes to feeding instructions, allergies, and household rules. Clean water, safe environments, and secure walks are always my priority. I provide regular updates with photos so you can feel reassured while you’re away. Most importantly, I treat every dog as if they were my own — with patience, affection, and respect for their unique temperament. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine because I’m currently home most of the time. This allows me to provide consistent supervision, frequent potty breaks, regular walks, and plenty of interaction throughout the day instead of leaving dogs alone for long periods. Since I have a flexible schedule, I can adapt to each dog’s needs — whether that means early morning walks, midday play sessions, feeding at specific times, or sticking closely to an established routine. Being home also allows me to monitor behavior closely and respond quickly if anything seems off. Because pet care would be a dedicated part of my day, I’m able to give dogs my full attention, ensuring they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for rather than just accommodated. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets, whether in my home or a client’s home. In my home, I maintain a clean, calm, and pet-safe environment. I remove potential hazards, keep doors and gates secured, and ensure all food and small objects are out of reach. Dogs have a comfortable resting area, constant access to fresh water, and structured playtime. I supervise interactions at all times and never leave pets unattended in unsafe situations. In a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all instructions carefully — including feeding schedules, medication, walking routes, house rules, and preferred routines. I double-check doors, gates, and leashes to ensure security. I’m attentive to behavior changes and will immediately communicate any concerns. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners feel reassured. I understand that trust is everything when someone leaves their pet in another person’s care. I treat every home respectfully and every pet as if they were my own — with patience, attentiveness, and responsibility.
