About: With 20+ years of dog ownership, I offer reliable, attentive care tailored to each dog’s needs. I’m comfortable with puppies, adult dogs, and seniors, and I create a calm, structured environment where your pet will feel at home. I’m available for care 7 day a week including holidays. Your animals will be taken on walks and tons of sniffy moments. Your animals will be receiving a lot of love and attention throughout the day with videos, gps trackers and pics to show for it. I provide a safe, clean, and calm home where pets are always supervised and treated like family. I follow each dog’s routine closely, including feeding, potty breaks, and any specific instructions. My home is pet-friendly, and I make sure all dogs feel comfortable, secure, and stress-free. I also have a friendly, well-socialized dog for companionship if your pup enjoys other dogs.

“Lauren was excellent with my Frankie Cat. I can see how content and happy she was while I was on vacation. I will most definitely rebook with Lauren when I go out of town. All of you cat Mom's and Dad's should do the same..”

About: I truly treat every dog like family — I even call my friends’ and clients’ pups my “nieces and nephews.” Over the years, I’ve cared for a wide range of breeds, including golden retrievers, pugs, shibas, and shih tzus, each with their own unique personalities and needs. One thing I’m especially proud of is helping shy or anxious dogs feel more confident. With patience, structure, and lots of positive reinforcement, I’ve built strong, trusting relationships with pups who need a little extra love and reassurance. I always go above and beyond to make sure every dog in my care feels safe, comfortable, and adored. Whether it’s giving treats, playing in the park, keeping them engaged with fun activities, or tucking them in for the coziest nap — I make their time with me feel like a home-away-from-home. We’re able to provide 24/7 care, which is something we’re really proud of. I work from home on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, and even on the days I go into the office, I always come home at lunch to check in. My fiancé works from home full-time, so there’s always someone here to give your pup attention, comfort, and company. Caring for pets is a natural, happy part of our everyday life. I always stay close to the pets I’m caring for so I can quickly respond to their needs and make sure they feel safe, happy, and comfortable. I pay attention to their body language, and if a pet seems unsure or unhappy, I take the time to understand what they need and help them feel at ease. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow all house rules and routines exactly as instructed. I’m very respectful of both the home and the pet’s normal schedule, so everything feels familiar and stress-free for them.

“Kianna was my first sitter through Rover! She was so kind with my requests and even sent me some videos/pictures! She has a very positive spirit and responds quickly. I will definitely be using her again!”

About: As a lifelong animal lover and proud Doberman mom, caring for dogs is something that is genuinely personal and meaningful to me. I have 6 years of experience dog walking and dog sitting, along with years of experience caring for dogs in my own family. Growing up, I helped care for my family’s small dogs, and now I have firsthand experience caring for my own large dog. Because of this, I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, needs, and comfort level. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care because I experience that same feeling whenever I entrust someone with my own dog. Your pets aren’t just animals—they’re family. I take that responsibility seriously and want every owner to feel confident that their dog is being treated with the same patience, attention, and love I would want for my own. Whether your dog needs a walk, playtime, companionship, or simply someone reliable to keep them comfortable while you’re away, I’m happy to provide loving and attentive care. My goal is for both you and your pet to feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I have a flexible schedule and love being able to make time for pets! My availability can change from week to week depending on my work schedule, but my weekdays are typically very open, especially during the daytime. Feel free to reach out! My typical availability: * Monday: Available after 11 AM * Tuesday–Friday: Typically very flexible, with the most availability during the daytime * Weekends: Usually available during the day; evening availability varies depending on my work schedule * Evenings: Often available during the week, with weekend evenings depending on work I’m currently in school for nursing, so I set aside time for studying, and I also work part-time at a brewery with a schedule that varies each week. Because of this, advance notice is always appreciated! It helps me plan around school and work and make sure I can give your pet the time and attention they deserve. I’m happy to consider last-minute requests whenever my schedule allows, so please feel free to reach out even if you need someone on shorter notice. I’m always happy to see if I can make it work! I currently offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and daytime house sitting. I’m also willing to travel throughout Orange County to care for your pets. I know how much trust goes into leaving your pet in someone else’s care because I feel the same way with my own dog, Jade. I want every pet parent to feel comfortable knowing their baby is safe, happy, and genuinely cared for while they’re away. How my care for your pet is unique: * Getting to know them: I love learning about your pet’s personality, routine, favorite activities, and anything that helps them feel comfortable and happy. * Following their routine: I’ll follow your instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, treats, playtime, and any special care they may need. * Respecting their personality: Every pet is different. Some are ready to be best friends right away, while others need a little time to warm up. I’m patient and let each pet get comfortable with me at their own pace. * Prioritizing safety: I’m attentive to doors, gates, leashes, food, medications, and anything else that could potentially put your pet at risk. I never want to take unnecessary chances with their safety. * Respecting your home: When caring for your pet in your home, I treat your space with the same care and respect I would my own. I’ll clean up after your pet, keep their things organized, and make sure everything is secure before I leave. * Keeping you informed: Communication is really important to me. In my previous dog-walking and sitting experience, I’ve made a habit of leaving a printed visit summary after each visit. I fill out the appropriate details, including whether your pet ate, potty details, treats given, the duration of the walk, and an overall description of how the visit went. I’m also happy to send photos and updates so you can see your pet while you’re away. Most importantly, I want your pet to feel like they’re spending time with someone who genuinely loves and cares about animals—not simply someone stopping by to check a box. I know how reassuring it is to receive those little updates when you’re away from your pet, and I want to give you that same peace of mind. Your pet’s comfort, happiness, and safety always come first.

“Great sitter! Was able to drop in on my kitties last minute and followed all of my care instructions which included giving my sick baby her cancer medicine. Took pics and provided updates :) would hire and recommend to anyone looking to get their pets cared for!”

About: I've had dogs as pets since I was a kid. Recently lost my beautiful girl at 14.5 years. I have experience with all ages from puppies to senior dogs and all sizes and also do fostering for a great rescue that I work with. I love all dogs like my own. I live near parks so happy to take them on long walks or if they're lower activity we can snuggle on my couch. I look forward to meeting and taking care of your loved one! I work from home 2 days a week and other 3 i only go into the office for half days. I'm also able to bring with me to work. i have a fenced yard and a quiet home. Please let me know if your pet has specific needs. I have experience with giving meds.

“She is the most caring and sweet person. In addition, the four dogs loved her and felt an immediate bond. Please use Saeedeh without reservation. I’ll definitely be asking her to watch my pups again. Love the videos too!”

“We’ve been using Reinaldo as our pet sitter for two years now, and I can confidently say he is the absolute best. Reinaldo is incredibly attentive to our three fur babies—our dog Mochi and our cats Cookie and Fafa. From the moment we met him, it was clear that he has a genuine love for animals, and our pets adore him just as much as we do. Reinaldo is not only lovable but also exceptionally responsible. He follows every instruction to the letter, which is so reassuring when leaving our pets in his care. Whether it’s keeping Cookie comfortable in the master bedroom at night or ensuring Mochi gets enough attention and playtime, he’s on top of every detail. He’s also wonderfully responsive and always on time, which makes coordinating with him stress-free. We never have to worry when Reinaldo is watching over our fur babies because we know they’re in the most loving, capable hands. What truly sets Reinaldo apart is the bond he has built with our pets. It’s rare to find someone who not only takes care of your pets but also becomes part of their little world. I honestly can’t imagine trusting anyone else. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pets like family, Reinaldo is the one. He is a true gem, and we feel so lucky to have found him!”

I have a 7-year-old well socialized cat, and a 2 year old dog who passed the AGC test this July! He is already neutered, very friendly and knows to respect other's space. I have a dog park 4mins-walk away from my house, and I will take my dog to the dog park everyday to get plenty of exercise. The doggos will not be kept together when I am not at home. This aims for maximize the safety for both animals. I will not leave home longer than 4 hours during boarding time, and I promise one family per boarding!

About: I've taken care of dogs, from puppies to senior dogs that require extra attention.

“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 several years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all sizes, and animals have always been a big part of my life! I’ve previously owned two cats and currently have a sweet, friendly 5-year-old Maltese named Sonny. I truly love spending time with animals and understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. Whether it’s a playful puppy, a large dog, or a shy and independent cat, I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I treat every pet like part of the family and provide plenty of attention, affection, and personalized care. My goal is to give pet parents peace of mind knowing their furry family members are in loving and responsible hands! I spend most of my time at home, which gives me plenty of flexibility to provide personalized care, attention, and companionship for both dogs and cats. I make sure every pet follows their regular feeding, walking, playtime, and rest schedule as closely as possible. Whether your pet needs frequent potty breaks, extra playtime, or simply a quiet place to relax, I’m happy to accommodate their individual needs. I also provide regular photo updates so you can feel comfortable knowing your furry family member is well cared for! I live in a clean, comfortable single-family home in Irvine with a secure fenced backyard where dogs can enjoy supervised playtime and fresh air. I have a friendly and gentle 5-year-old Maltese named Sonny who is accustomed to being around other dogs. I welcome dogs of all sizes and understand the importance of proper introductions and supervised interactions. Pets can also be kept in separate areas when needed to ensure everyone’s safety and comfort. Having previously owned two cats, I also understand that cats need a calm, secure environment and their own personal space. I always respect each pet’s personality, comfort level, and individual needs. For visits to your home, I carefully follow your instructions and make sure your pet’s environment stays clean, safe, and comfortable.
