“What a wonderful home for our Abby to stay while we were away. Crystal and her family made our doggie feel right at home. She was happy, well taken care of and made friends too. Thanks, Crystal for taking such good care of her. Pat”

About: I've been a frequent pet sitter since I was in Junior High, as well as always taking care of my own I'd often take care of my grandparents, uncles, and friends. I work part-time so I'll have plenty of time to spend with your pets and live with family so they'll be taken care of when I'm not around :) I live in a gated home with a large backyard for your pet to roam free in :) I also have two different sized crates available if needed.
About: I’m a dedicated dog lover with hands on experience caring for friends’ and family dogs, as well as my own, using positive reinforcement at home. On walks, I focus on gentle, calm structure, making sure gear fits comfortably, reinforcing polite leash manners, and (if you’d like) practicing simple cues like “sit,” “wait,” and “leave it.” I’m patient with excited dogs and extra gentle with nervous pups, always prioritizing safety and giving plenty of space from other dogs and people when needed. Dogs who need extra space on leash are welcome, I’m comfortable with mild–moderate reactivity and I work at the dog’s comfort level using distance, calm handling, and positive reinforcement. You’ll get photo updates + a quick walk recap each visit, and meet & greets are always welcome. I’m available for dog walks Monday through Saturday, with flexible time blocks from morning to evening (6am–10pm). Sundays are my off day. I’m happy to work with one-time walks, weekly routines, and recurring midday potty breaks—whatever keeps your pup happiest and most consistent. Safety comes first on every walk. I double-check harness/collar fit, use secure leash handling, and stay alert to surroundings. I avoid on-leash greetings unless you request them, give dogs space from triggers, and keep walks calm and positive. I’ll follow your routine closely and send photo updates each visit.
About: I’ve had dogs and cats since a child. As an adult I’ve fostered several dogs to help find them homes. Big animal lover who likes structure. I don’t let my pets in the kitchen and try to teach them not to beg. I currently have open availability, so plenty of time to help play with your pups and care for them while you’re gone. Whether it just be for a few hours, or overnight. I have a smaller backyard, but it fenced, and available for pets to use. I live close by a gorgeous park, so love heading for walks, & playing catch somewhere nearby.
“If I could leave 6 stars I would! This was our first experience with Rover and Naomi made it absolutely wonderful. We have an anxious 1 yr. old kitty who needed extra TLC and she did just that. Naomi consistently showed up daily when promised. She gave us detailed reports on his eating, behavior, anxiety level and health. She played and cuddled with him extensively and we received wonderful pictures every day detailing it all. I can't recommend a better guardian to care for your fur baby than Naomi. We never doubted for a moment that he was in great hands- Thank you Naomi!”

About: What distinguishes me as a dog sitter is the perfect blend of experience, genuine love for dogs, and a commitment to tailored care. I prioritize individual needs, creating a personalized and comfortable environment for each furry friend. Your dog's well-being is not just a duty but a love I bring to every wagging tail. My reliability as a pet sitter stems from a combination of experience and genuine care. With a lifelong connection to animals and a proven track record in pet sitting for friends and family, my dedication ensures a secure and loving environment for pets. Consistency, attention to detail, and a heartfelt passion for animals is what makes me who I am as a pet sitter! I am a student at California State University Fullerton who has most classes online so I am home almost all day. The days I do go to class I have breaks long enough between each one my classes to come back home and spend some quality time and give potty breaks to our furry friends as needed ! My weekends are completely free and I am able to be home all day. Being a full time student allows me to be able to make my own schedule and allows for a lot of flexibility with time ! My clean and spacious apartment, coupled with a yard, creates an ideal pet haven. With a clutter-free environment, pets can navigate freely and safely. The yard offers a designated space for outdoor play and exploration. Regular cleaning routines ensure a hygienic setting, contributing to the overall safety and happiness of your furry companions.
About: What sets me aside from my competitors is that Im reliable, affordable and kind ! I have passion for animals and love meeting new paw friends, I have 3 trained dogs at home that I cherish with every bone in me. I absolutely love working with animals and having the extra company. Growing up I’ve always loved not just dogs but all sorts of animals, I have so much love to give and cannot wait to meet your paw babies! I’m currently a full time student and I work a part time job. I usually work mid day but varies every week. I enjoy working with all types of different fur babies and I am so excited to give my extra time and energy to them! Feel free to message me to figure out a time that works for the both of us! Always making sure that your pet is in my sight and never unattended is key to making sure that your pet is always safe. Whether that is interacting or observing them . In my home I make sure my smallest inside dog has a clean water bowl each morning and take her outside to do her business, we enjoy taking morning rides and running errands together. My all time favorite part of being a dog mom is getting to take naps together and cuddle while watching movies !
About: I’m Emma, and caring for animals has always been a big part of my life. Over the years, I’ve had the joy of pet sitting for friends, neighbors, family, and referrals—looking after everything from playful pups and snuggly cats to chickens, bunnies, and even someones 4-H ducks. Whether it’s daily walks, cuddle time, feeding, or simply keeping your pets company while you’re away, I treat every animal as if they were my own. I understand how important it is to feel at ease knowing your furry (or feathered!) family members are safe, happy, and loved.I’m reliable, attentive, and experienced with pets of all personalities. I’d love the chance to make your pets feel comfortable and cared for while giving you peace of mind. I currently am a full time student I attend college from 9am-2:20pm Tuesdays and Thursdays. My commute one way to campus is roughly an hour and fifteen minutes. I regularly house sit for people on weekends but am hoping to do it more regularly. If your pet is an eloper I’ll make sure to keep all doors shut and be mindful when walking in and out to not let them out. I have plenty of experience with scooping dog poop and cleaning kitty litter. I have a client who gave me a key to keep for if they are ever out of town due to an emergency I can be able to get in to care for their pets that is how trust worthy I am. The client is also not a neighbor or friend.
About: I have had the honor of taking care of dogs, cats, goats, cows, fish and even bearded dragons! All aging from 9 months to 17 years old.

About: I love animals and would love to help you watch yours if you're out or take them on walks for you! I had a German-Shorthaired Pointer/Labrador mix for 11 years, he passed away recently but brought years of joy and experience with a highly-energetic dog. I recently got my first cat, and I have lived with several other dogs and cats. I do not have any professional experience grooming or dealing with animals, but I am more than willing to help out with letting dogs out, taking them on walks, etc. I definitely have plenty of experience walking dogs because of my little guy. I look forward to hearing from you soon! I currently have quite open availability, almost any day and time should work with some notice, and I will try to make it work regardless. I have a fenced-in yard where a dog can go outside/play fetch. I have 1 cat, but he can be kept in a separate area of the house if preferred.

About: I have had little dogs of my own (chihuahua mixes) and have fostered puppies and dogs and done adoptions of them for a local dog rescue. I've also had petsitting experience of dogs and cats with local petsitting companies. I have flexibility to take petsitting jobs. I prefer jobs with small to medium dogs. I also would care for rodents, reptiles, rabbits, amphibians, etc.! I love building relationships with clients and their pets. I enjoy getting to know each animal and their individual personality likes, and dislikes. I am friend to animals.

About: I have absolutely loved growing up with animals my whole life and I am excited to be able to provide pets with love and care while their owners are away. I have very open availability so that I will be able to ensure that the animals are content and properly taken care of. I also have my own transportation so it is not an issue to travel to you. I love taking dogs on long walks and hikes if they are up for it. I have a flexible schedule and can make sure that your furry one is getting all the attention that it needs and provide a comfortable environment that they can enjoy even for a short time! I currently am an online graduate student part time so I will have plenty of time to give your little one all of the love and attention that they need. I have a fenced in yard and am happy to be accommodating for whatever kind of exercise and attention that your pup may want as well as whatever schedule they may currently be on!
About: I got a puppy about 10 years ago, his name is Bailey and he was such a hyper dog so I went on many walks, I was solely responsible for taking care of him, like, feeding, grooming, walking, entertaining, and picking up after. I am a college student, I am open all day. I can do nights and early mornings, if needed, I am available to be at the visit for multiple hours Although I can’t hold animals in my home, I take amazing care of my own animals that I carry that with me to every visit because I feel animals deserve to be treated with the same amount of respect.
About: I have been taking care of animals my entire life. I was raised around animals and treat them all like they are my own. I have experience with puppies, dog walking, and managing multiple dogs at one time. I currently work full time at a school but I like to take care of animals when I am free. I have a lot of time off and my weekend is open for any fur baby that needs me. I think trust is important when it comes to animals. Animals need to smell you first to get to know you. I always let an animal smell my hand and then I’ll ease into petting them once I can tell from body language if they want me to.
Over 4 pet parents in Empire have booked cat sitting
Empire cat parents share their Rover experiences
Teresa is a very thorough sitter. We use her to do drop-ins for our cats when we are gone for extended periods of time. She will check and make sure the cats get some attention and sends lots of pictures of them with each check in. She also makes sure the cats have water, food, and clean litter boxes. I would definitely recommend her for animal check ins.

5 stars are not enough to show our gratitude for Naomi. During our trip, she sent us multiple photos and detailed updates after every visit, which we greatly appreciated. But what truly sets Naomi apart are the little things she does without being asked. We came home to two happy and relaxed Cats. We never worried for a second and will definitely be booking again.
