Pet Sitting & Drop Ins In El Camino Real

“Regi was super attentive to my fur babies and always communicated with me! She has true passion and love for pets and cares for them like her own. I would recommend her to anyone in need of a sitter.”

“Jody was amazing with our dogs! Very caring, attentive, and always on time for daily visits. Our dogs loved spending time with her, and she played with them so well. We also really appreciated all the photos and videos she sent, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Highly recommend!”

About: I have more than 3 years of pet care experience, including caring for cats and dogs. I also have a 3.5-year-old small dog of my own, so I know how much love, patience, and attention pets need every day. I am happy to help with feeding, walks, playtime, and giving your pet a safe, caring, and comfortable experience. As a college student, I’m usually available whenever I’m not in class. I have a flexible routine, so I can spend quality time with your pet, and I’m also home most of the time during breaks and holidays. Since I currently offer visits in my client’s home, I focus on keeping pets safe, relaxed, and comfortable in their usual environment. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions and make sure pets get the care, attention, and routine they need.

“Lisa B is a caring and loving care taker who did a great job of looking after our two cats! Loved the daily updates as well as some fun pics😊”

“Bailey did an amazing job taking care of our two kittens. It was our first time leaving our kittens, and Bailey made sure to provide timely updates so we were able to relax on vacation knowing the kittens were well taken care of. My kids looked forward to all the cute pictures and videos she sent over daily. Great communication, responsible, and very competent pet sitter. Highly recommend and will definitely rebook again. Thank you Bailey!”

About: Thanks for checking out my profile! My husband Eric and I are professionals in the health care industry and longtime Irvine residents. We have two dogs and a cat of our own, and we volunteered as foster parents for a rescue in the past. We previously offered dog sitting services at our house and have now transitioned to house sitting. I believe that your pets are the most comfortable when they can stay at their home and we are committed to offering affordable, responsible, and communicative house-sitting services for your peace of mind. Eric and I enjoy caring for our furry friends together. When you book, you get the benefit of knowing there is a back-up person to ensure the best service for you and your pets. We will meet with you before booking to ensure that you are comfortable with us and vice versa. It is so important that there is a good fit between everyone - including your pups/kitties - so that you can go on your trip/vacation with complete peace of mind. As pet parents, we know how important it is to be communicative. You will receive daily updates while you're away. No ghosting, no one-worded responses, but clear and authentic communication. We currently accept clients only within our specified booking area (Irvine & Lake Forest). Eric works remotely. I will house-sit a majority of the late afternoon and evening hours. Our schedules are usually planned months in advance and we are not spontaneous people. I follow any instructions and schedules you leave me to the best of our ability. The more details, the better it will be for your peace of mind.

About: Besides growing up with with dogs my whole life, I'm an aspiring physician applying to medical school. I have experience adapting and reacting to stressful situations. Very flexible, can work overnights and weekends! No problem with early mornings or late nights. Just looking for some extra cash while applying to medical school. Will send frequent updates and photos! I'm comfortable with working with all dog sizes. I plan to work in healthcare/patient care so it's imperative I make both owners and dogs comfortable.

“Victoria was great! She took great care of our 3 cattos, she was on time, kept us informed, shared pictures with us, etc She understood our cats’ personalities and was able to connect with them accordingly. She was extremely helpful and supportive, we will definitely keep her in mind for future bookings.”

About: I’ve had a drive to care for animals my entire life! I grew up with dogs and mostly cats and would dog-sitting for family members anytime they needed! I’ve always known that I wanted to work with animals when I grew up but veterinary care would make me too sad as it physically pains me to see sad and hurt animals:( I also have a history with horses and competing! I spent a summer(2023) in Louisiana volunteering at a barn where retired racehorses would get sent to rehab, retrain, and eventually rehome! I would spend all day helping rehab the horses! I worked at PetSmart both in the store as a PetCare Specialist and in the Grooming Salon as a Professional Bather! During my time there I realized how much I love making pets and their parents happy and a little more healthier! I loved talking with pet parents and educating them while also hearing about their furry babies! Nothing made me happier than seeing one of my clients walking in - tail wagging! I have a dog and a cat of my own! My dog is a mini Australian Shepherd whom I have trained myself! He loves to do agility training! I also groom him myself! I rescued my cat from the side of a freeway when he was a little kitten. He’s had some medical issues regarding his bladder so I’m well rounded with cat care and administering medicine! My cat is now my little Velcro kitty who always wants to be involved in what I’m doing! I’ve worked with all kinds of dogs- big and small! While I normally don’t have a preference between the two, I am currently pregnant with my first so I’m only really able to physically handle small/medium dogs for the time being. As a pet mom myself, pet care is a daily routine for me! I am a stay at home wife (soon to be mom) and spend most of my days spoiling my dog and cat! I’m new to the area so I don’t really have much that gets me out of the house and I absolutely love being around animals so I figured why not try to fill my time by helping other pet parents out who may not have as much time on their hands as I do! I’m very flexible with scheduling and last minute bookings so never hesitate to reach out! During my time working in the PetSmart grooming salon, I became very used to nervous and anxious dogs as grooming time can be very stressful for pets! I’d say I’m pretty good at recognizing anxious behavior and doing my best at making pups more comfortable! I also understand how nerve wracking it can be to trust someone with your pet - especially someone new! I have had an experience in the past that left me traumatized when it comes to leaving my pets in someone else’s care. So I too understand that overwhelming need to check in on your baby and make sure everything is going well! I promise you, as someone who has been on the other end, I am always welcoming to multiple check in texts, long lists, picture requests, and the need for as many details as possible! I’m someone who likes to feel sure in what they’re doing so if I have any questions or concerns- they will be brought up immediately. I never like to assume because there’s always a chance I could be wrong, so I like to get all the details!

“Shelley was very careful and kind with our cats. They loved her too! We always trust Shelley when we are not home to take care of our fur babies!”

About: Dogs have been a huge part of my life for over 20 years. As a dedicated dog owner and long-time volunteer with animal organizations, I've cared for dogs of all ages, sizes, breeds, and personalities. I understand that every dog is unique and deserves patience, attention, and genuine love. Whether your pup needs a fun walk, playtime, companionship, or a comfortable place to stay, I treat every dog as if they were my own. My goal is to provide a safe, stress-free, and loving experience while giving pet parents peace of mind. I pride myself on being dependable, attentive, and communicative, and I truly enjoy building lasting relationships with both dogs and their owners. I can't wait to meet your furry family member! I work from home, which allows me to provide plenty of attention, and companionship throughout the day. Your dog won't be left alone for long periods and will have someone nearby to monitor their needs, provide potty breaks, walks, and lots of affection. Caring for dogs fits naturally into my daily routine. I provide a safe, loving environment with a fully fenced yard for supervised play and exercise. Since I work from home, your dog will get plenty of attention, potty breaks, and companionship throughout the day. I follow each pet's routine closely and keep owners updated with photos and messages for peace of mind.

“Sonomi always does a great job walking our dog when we are out! She is very professional and easy to work with.”

“Jingying and Alex were great! They really cared to do an in-person meet up beforehand to understand all my pets needs. They asked great questions to double-check all the care details. Highly recommend!!”

About: ⭐️ Deep experience with anxious dogs ⭐️ Outdoor & at-home enrichment ⭐️ From puppies to seniors ⭐️ Med management💊 I’m the pet parent to a 6-year old rescue mix with high anxiety, so I know how scary and frustrating it is to find enrichment, care, and exercise that isn’t triggering or overwhelming for them. I’m available almost every weekday for walks, potty breaks, games (including at-home for anxious dogs who won’t play outside with others), and cuddles to keep your beloved furry family member happy and tired out while you’re away. Experienced with oral medication (giving it to my own dog daily!), enrichment games (snuffle mats, hiding games, et.), and high-energy activities like hikes and dog parks. My weekday schedule is flexible so your dog can have enrichment time whether you’re away at work or running errands. I currently work from home with flexible hours so any time from early morning through evening is an option for me. My utmost priority is your dog’s comfort, so I will adapt to your pet’s daily routine and your personal preferences for your home. You’ll receive pictures every time, whether we’re walking, snuggling on the couch, or playing games together in the yard or living room.

“Brooke is dependable and is great with our two large dogs! It’s nice to know Maggie and Jett are in good hands when we will be away for the evening.”

Mary C.

“Cie did an amazing job with our two cats and chinchilla. She even bought a toothbrush to give our chinchilla scratches, which he absolutely loved! She was very communicative and let us know everything that was going on with the animals in the house. I can highly recommend her to take amazing care of any pet.”

Heidi B.

“Randi was amazing. I met her on a shorter notice but she was very willing to help. I have a few cats who are a little more nervous around strangers, but when she entered my house, they all warmed up to her immediately. Not a common occurrence. She sent wonderful photos and updates throughout the trip. Would 100% hire again!”

Katarina J.

“We were SO glad we found Erica to watch our pets while we were away. During the meet and greet we knew she would be perfect - her calm, kind, and loving demeanor was perfect for our pets. She sent pictures and updates every day, and went above and beyond to make sure our home and everything in it was well taken care of. We will definitely book her again in the future, and would recommend her to anyone searching for a pet sitter.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 20. Roommates, family and friends have relied on me to help with training, walks, cleaning litters, etc. I’m currently working full time as a telehealth therapist, but I’m available throughout the day and nights as needed. I’m available any time on the weekends. My roommate currently has 1 cat and feed him and clean out his litter any time she is out of town. I also play with him throughout the day and provide loads of snuggles. I am also a pretty good dog .

“Yun Tzu was great at communicating and very sweet! My cats came out and played with her and I can’t say that is always the case. She did exactly as I instructed and I felt like my cats were safe with her.”
