Mary Alice took wonderful care of my fur baby. She asked good questions and met my pup prior to the first visit to make sure that she was completely prepared. She was generous with her time and attention, and gave frequent updates so I knew that my pet was doing well. I highly recommend Mary Alice!

Leaving our animals is always the most stressful part of a vacation, but we felt at ease knowing that Jocelyn was taking card of everything. She sent lots of photos and updates, responds quickly to any messages, and is always willing to help with anything that comes up. She is awesome!!

About: I have experience caring for all age ranges of cats and dogs. I have 3 years of animal welfare experience previously working in a shelter and i have always naturally been a huge animals lover. I have the ability to read animals body language really well. I connect quickly with every animal I meet! I have experience with different kinds of energy levels as well. If your dog needs a hike and does well in the car; I’m your gal!!, If they just need cuddles while we binge a tv show I can do that too! I have experience with bunnies, chickens and birds too!! I have a 3 year old dog named Ace who came to me as a puppy. I raised him and have trained him to be off leash, sit, stay, paw, and heel. (Basic commands) if you need assistance or would like for me to work with your dog in any training/ socializing way please reach out! Currently available anytime! Would love to have the ability to work with your animals and still have the time to give my animals the loving they deserve as well! I walk my dog every chance I get while working on any minor behavioral or fear based problems to insure my baby can live a full healthy happy life.

About: I started my journey with dogs 4 years ago and have not looked back enjoying every moment since. I am a certified trainer who loves improving the relationship between human and dog. We have a dog yard plus 5 acres. All dogs stay in our extra bedroom, which is now considered the dog room. I personally have two dogs, a cattle dog and a husky mix. They are both very social with all other dogs. We like to have a good time here but I keep a very safe environment for the dogs, no fighting or picking on one another. NO DOG IS TURNED AWAY. If you think your dog is aggressive, I can and will evaluate them so that if possible, we will get them socializing with their own kind and having a great time. Thanks, have a good day! I train dogs for a living so I stay at my house 7 days a week besides when I work with clients and those lessons tend to run about an hour but no more than 2 hours! I have 9 years experience running my own kennel and have two dogs with a large fence so there will be no boredom here! I do prefer to kennel dogs for the night but as we get comfortable with each other they will start to earn more freedom! Pet care is my full time job and i wouldn’t have it any other way, it has been a blessing. I hope I can help make your schedule less stressful! While you’re away, let your dogs play! I have a five foot fenced in dog yard specifically for dogs. We also have another 5 acres that we will walk all client dogs on during their stay with us.-

About: What sets me apart is the genuine care I give every dog. I focus on trust, safety, routine, and affection, treating each pet like family—not just a booking. Pet care fits naturally into my daily schedule, as I have two dogs of my own who are in a routine. This will allow me to provide consistent attention, regular walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship without rushing or distractions throughout the day. I have two friendly pups of my own who will keep your pups comfortable. I will provide a calm, safe, and structured environment. I will follow their routines while providing supervision, affection, and a relaxed environment.

About: I have a large family dog that I have been responsible for since I was about 10 years old. She has since gotten older so I have experience with a senior dog and giving any sorts of medication (and the peanut butter necessary to get her to take it). I am no stranger to having to clean up any accidents in the house so that is a non-issue for me. I am also open to taking care of other animals like rodents or turtles or other cage creatures. I am a true and passionate animal lover! My schedule is very flexible at the moment. I am happy to give as much or little time needed for the pets. I can figure out any scheduling and details necessary with clients. I am never loud coming into a home. I always let the pets come to me unless they are hiding on purpose. I take care instructions very seriously and will follow everything exactly and will reach out if I have questions about the best way I can care for your fur friend.

About: I have loved dogs since I was a kid! I recently have been working as a nanny and that has involved light care for pets as well, my current duties are walking the two dogs and feeding them treats and filling water bowls. I am very loving and caring. My previous job involved feeding and letting the pup out in the back yard to play and to help keep track of certain habits due to the dog having food allergies. I am so fond of animals as a whole that my future goal is to buy a house with lots of land and do free lance dog boarding! I would love to help your family with your pet’s needs! Hope to work with you soon!

About: With years of experience caring for dogs and cats, I offer a loving and fun environment for your pets. I understand cats need a clean space, so I'm dedicated to keeping their litter box fresh. I'm also great at keeping dogs active and happy with lots of walks and play! I have open availability Monday through Friday and can be flexible to fit your pet’s routine. I’m available for dog walks and cat drop-ins throughout the day, including mornings, afternoons, and evenings. I do my best to accommodate consistent schedules as well as occasional or short-notice requests. I focus on keeping pets safe and comfortable in their own home and routine. During dog walks, I use secure leashing, stay aware of our surroundings, and tailor each walk to the dog’s energy level and needs. For cat drop-ins, I respect each cat’s personality and boundaries while making sure they’re fed, have fresh water, clean litter, and get attention or playtime if they want it. I also keep owners updated with messages and photos so they know their pets are safe and cared for

About: Hi! I’m Vanessa, and I’ve spent over a year working hands-on at a professional dog daycare and boarding facility here in Orange. That means I’m used to caring for dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and energy levels — from bouncy puppies to mellow seniors. I’m currently offering dog walks and drop-in visits only. Whether your pup needs a quick potty break, a structured walk, or just some loving company while you’re away, I bring the same reliability and safety focus I use at the daycare. I also love adding enrichment — things like sniff-walks, interactive games, or even “report card” style updates so you know how their day went. I’m currently working a part-time job and my hours differ week to week. Some days it’s 7 a.m.- 12:00 p.m. and other days it’ll be from 9 a.m. - 4:30 p.m! Mondays are my busiest day of the week, so I can’t fit much into that day, but you can always still message me and I can see what I can do! In a client’s home, I always follow your pup’s normal routine so they feel comfortable and secure. For drop-in visits, that might include letting them out for a potty break, refreshing food and water, giving medications if needed, and spending quality time playing, cuddling, or just keeping them company. I make sure to leave everything tidy and send photo updates so you know how your pet is doing while you’re away. For dog walks, I focus on safety and fun. I use secure leashes/harnesses, keep a close eye on the environment, and adjust the pace to match your dog’s age and energy level — whether that’s a brisk stroll or a relaxed sniff walk. My goal is always to make sure your pet gets the exercise, attention, and care they deserve while giving you peace of mind.

About: We are a family of 4 seasoned pet sitters with a genuine love for animals. For nearly three years we have been traveling with our children across the United States, providing top-notch care for homes and pets from coast-to-coast, and back again! Pet sitting has offered a wonderful way to roadschool our children and provide them with hands-on life experience, all while caring for incredible pets and homes along the way. We are seeking long term sits of 3 months+, perfect for snowbirds and those needing support while traveling abroad. Because we travel with our kids we keep our rates low, but the level of care is never compromised. I believe the pets receive more love this way, making for a win-win all around. I work from home as a debt counselor while my wife, Jenalee, homeschools our children. We're all home most days, though she may take them out for educational activities and exploring. In either event, we'll always ensure the pets have regular attention and are never left alone beyond their comfort. We take time to understand your environment, home and pets routine. We have a safety checklist to become familiar with exits, fire extinguishers, firearms, cameras, and more. I am hyper-vigilant when it comes to safety. Things happen in homes, and we're here to see to it that your home is safe and secure. Our children are amazingly respectful. If there is a space or item that's off limits, we note it and it need not be worried about. We are so fortunate that this has worked as well as it has.

About: I’ve always had animals growing up. My family bred Saint Bernards, so I have experience with animals of all sizes and ages. I loved helping take care of them, but have been unable since I moved for college. I am really excited to meet your pets. I’m currently working part-time with a very flexible job. I can do anytime as long as I have about a weeks notice prior. Thank you! I have a fenced in court-yard and currently have no pets, so your pet is my number 1 priority. I live in a 2 bedroom apartment with plenty of space for your animals!

Mary Alice was wonderful. We greatly appreciated her taking the dogs out mid day during this frigid weather. The girls who are very shy wagged their tails and were immediately comfortable with her. We were very happy to have met Mary Alice and would recommend her without hesitation.
