House Sitting in Laurelhurst, Santa Ana, CA

“Michelle has been a God send. She had been consistently on time and able to watch George for us a few times this week. She takes him on nice long walks and is easy to communicate with.”

“If I could give 10 stars, I would. Brandie and William are Amazing. Not only did they step in to watch my 2 dogs last minute on Christmas Eve for the week, they did such a great job. Brandie texted me everyday and night and sent photos, making me feel happy and comfortable while I was gone knowing my dogs were in good hands. She is an absolute sweetheart and so good with pets. I would highly recommend her and her boyfriend to watch anyone’s fur babies and I’m already booking them for my next dog sitting.”

“Michelle was able to help us watch our 2 cats on short notice. She followed our directions and updated us with photos and messages. She seemed comfortable with caring for our temperamental grumpy cat and our other cat loved her.”

“As a first-time user I was hesitant but Lisbet put us at ease. She showed up on time, gave us pupdates, house was left in order, and pup seemed happy.”

“Dylan was great! Our first time using Rover and so happy we found Dylan. He was attentive to our dogs and I don’t think we could have found someone better. He kept us posted while we were gone and made us feel comfortable about leaving our dogs with him at the house. Thank you Dylan!”

“Trustable and reliable dog sitter. Alexandra took care of my four big dogs. He made me feel assured that my dogs were well taken care of while I was out touring the city. He showed utmost concern about dog's health and safety. I would be a return customer if I was a local resident.”

“Excellent sitter! Tucker was a happy boy hanging out with Rita. I felt very confident in her ability to care for Tucker. We received updates and pictures daily. We will continue to book her services for our next needs.”

“Julia was so incredible when I was in need of a dog sitter. She is seriously the dog-whisperer. She is so kind and truly took care of my dog while I was away! She even would send me pictures of my pup :) If you need a dogsitter then Julia is your girl!!”

“Elena has been an absolute lifesaver when it comes to caring for my Siberian Husky. From the time he was a rambunctious puppy to now as an energetic adult, I’ve trusted her completely with his care. Huskies are high-energy and require a lot of patience, but Elena has always handled him with ease, making sure he gets the exercise, attention, and structure he needs. Her reliability, kindness, and deep understanding of dogs are unmatched. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, or just giving him the love and care he deserves, I never have to worry when he’s with her. I can’t recommend Elena enough—she treats every dog as if they were her own, and it truly shows!”

“We had Don watch our 3 year old dog for 3 nights and 4 days. He was absolutely the perfect sitter. He arrived at 5:30AM so we could have our dog be with him while we headed to the airport to relieve any anxiety and stayed until 7:00PM so we could get back not too late with our dog being alone. Don was very kind, sweet, and attentive towards our dog. He asked for a detailed item list for his stay, he sent us a ton of photos and videos without us having to always ask, and reached out to help clean up sheets, vacuum, take the trash out before his stay ended. You can tell he has a passion for dogs and truly enjoys spending time with them. I would highly recommend Don if you are looking to enjoy your vacation or time away and want to feel like you can trust someone to make your dog happy. We look forward to hiring him again next time we are out of town. He will be our first choice in sitters moving forward.”

“Grady was in great hands with Tommy. He was on time, ready to go and very sweet with Grady. Tommy and Grady checked in with some cute pics and an update while we were out which was much appreciated. Thanks for the fantastic care! 👍🏼👍🏼”

“Monica took care of my 2 year old Cane Corso while we were Gone for three days! No easy task, but Monica not only fed my Cane Corso “Sirius” but also bonded with him and was able to gain his trust and play/entertain him while we were gone. I don’t know how she did it, but Sirius took a liking to her and reciprocated the same level of trust. I would definitely have her watch him again. Sirius misses her.”

“For the second time time we invited Audrey to in-home sit with our dog, Crockett. They have become good buddies. Audrey is thoughtful about following our instructions for his care and she sends lots of pictures of their activities.”

“Juan was great! He watched my MIL dog Hodor because he’s too big to come to our house. Juan kept the house clean and even made the bed. We would love having him again and plan to ask. Thank you Juan.”

“Yoshiko was one of THE BEST sitter we've ever had. She kept the place extremely clean, probably even cleaner than when we left it. Our dog looked healthy and happy in Yoshiko's care. She was extremely communicative throughout the whole process, and very respectful of our space. We've had many Rover sitters in the past, and we'd always be nervous leaving our dog in someone else's care, but Yoshiko made us feel extremely at ease while being away. We would definitely have Yoshiko care for our dog again any time we're away.”

About: I've taken care of dogs for 10 years. Neighbors of mine have reported on how responsible and trustworthy they find me to be with keeping appointments being punctual and my consistency with their pets walks. I'm also very good with puppies. I also have 13 years of riding and caring for horses. Neighbors and friends can and have relied on me to bathe, groom, feed, give medicine and play with their puppies and senior dogs. I'm currently working minimum hours so I have time for your pets everyday from 11 am until 5 p.m. I am also available on the weekends. I have a fenced yard and a crate for a small size dog. No other animals here, so your pet is free to wander, explore and feel comfortable. My old dog's toys are still here, so there is a cooling pad and some blankets if you forget yours.

“Elizabeth was the greatest! She took great care of my dogs and home while we were away. She is great with communication, sending updates, photos, and I didn’t even have to ask. We booked last minute after our plans with a friend who was going to watch our dogs fell through, and she was very flexible. I will definitely be hiring her again! It’s very comforting not having to worry about trusting a sitter when you are out of town!”

“Crystal is great. She is a great communicator, and she sent me plenty of photos so I could see what was going on while we were away. I will definitely book her again. My dogs are very shy and quirky and they really like her.”

“I can’t recommend Toni enough for dog walking and pet sitting! She cared for my senior dog, June Bug, with so much love and attention, treating her as if she were her own. June Bug had dementia and needed to wear diapers, which required extra patience and care, and Toni handled it all with incredible compassion and reliability. Whether it was daily walks or overnight stays, I always had complete peace of mind knowing June Bug was in the best hands. If you’re looking for someone who truly loves and understands animals, especially those with special needs, Toni is the perfect choice!”
