About: ✨Currently offering special intro rates to connect with local pet parents and build long-term relationships ✨ Your pets are family! I’ve had pups around pretty much my whole life and I’m currently a proud dog mom to a mini poodle. I think it's safe to say he’s my everything 💖 Spending time with animals genuinely makes my day better, and I’d love to help give your pet(s) the same love and care I give my own. Whether you need someone for a quick walk, a drop-in for some playtime and cuddles, or just a reliable helping hand while you’re away, I’ve got you covered. I’m all about clear communication, showing up on time, and making sure your pet(s) feels safe and happy. Let’s chat—I’d love to meet you and your pet(s)! I have a flexible schedule and am ready to work with you to ensure a great experience for everyone! I love spending time outdoors with my own pup and exploring new walking paths, so pet care fits naturally into my lifestyle. Hope to chat soon! I don’t offer boarding in my home, but when caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure to follow their routine as closely as possible. I know how important consistency is, so I’ll follow any instructions you leave—whether that’s feeding, walks, playtime, or giving your pet some space. I aim to create a calm, comfortable experience for your pet while keeping you updated along the way!

About: I love dogs and have had two dogs growing up, a toy poodle mix and a husky and have looked after my friend's and neighbor's pet while they were busy. I am currently in the process of applying to nursing school and have a lot of flexibility in my schedule to play and help you take care of your dogs while you're busy with work or school. I have volunteered in the animal shelter for two years and have walked many different breeds of dogs with varying energy level. I have also fostered two dogs from the shelter and was able to help find them their forever home. At the end of the day, I just want to make sure that all dogs get the love, attention, and exercise that they need and deserve so I would be honored to be entrusted with the care of your fur babies. I will also be more than happy to send you frequent pictures, videos, and updates of your dogs while they are under my care because I know how important it is to know that they are loved and well cared for while being away from you. I am currently in the process of taking online classes for nursing schools and applying to nursing programs so I will have a flexible schedule. I am available in the mornings and afternoons every day of the week. I absolutely love dogs and the safety and comfort of your dog is my top priority. Under my care while outside, they will always be leashed and if you let me know of any issues that your dogs have, I will do my best to work with it and avoid any potential issues that may arise.

About: From dogs, cats, frogs, and everything in between, I’m an avid pet lover! My current rescue is a German shepherd mix named, Butters. I spent my day’s walking and playing with her. We also love visiting her fur friends! I am currently working part time so my availability is open Mondays-Friday 7:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. for day visits. Weekends I’m free all day! I have a large, fenced yard with a loving fur baby, Butters. She is a social pup and would love some company! Dogs can be in and out of the home as they please. But bedtime is always inside! I also have room for a crate if needed.

About: For the past year working with others, pets are always what catch my attention! I seek out the diversity of everyone’s furry friends and even the scaly ones 👀 I’ve got lots of space in between my usual shifts at my job since they’re always about 4-5 hours. Drop in visits will work and I can fill in the gaps for those who need longer care’ At my apartment we’re not allowed pets unfortunately, but i’ve cared for those who have dogs and cats with whatever instructions are provided to keep everyone happy.

About: My skills are only taking the dogs a bath and taking them on walks, and I play with them as well I give all my attention to them. I start my morning early and that’s when I start my walking, then I come back and have my breakfast, so I will have plenty of time to care for a dog. The care I would give is just giving them attention and making sure their area is always cleaned. Taking them on walks and walking them.

“Cristina took the initiative to come meet my kitties ahead of time. She took great care of them and played and cuddled them. I asked her to bring in our trash cans and some packages at the last minute and she was happy to do it. Very responsible, responsive and great with the kitties!”


“Rosie was great, she was attentive to our cats and they seemed very comfortable with her. We were able to relax completely and enjoy our trip knowing the cats were so well taken care of everyday!”


About: I’ve taken care of animals for about 5 years and my love for them has not changed whatsoever. I’m always excited to meet new friends especially when they feel the same way I always care for my cat everyday and sometimes my cousin’s dog if I go to her apartment next door. Taking care of pets is important for me because they are always there for you when you need them most I have a fence in my house to keep any pet from danger and if an animal is not friendly with others my cat has his own room.
About: Dog & cat lover serving the greater OC & LA area! I grew up in a household full of animals and decades later, that has not changed. I’m the person who socializes with dogs and their owners while on walks with my 5-year-old Cocker Spaniel, Lady. Aside from caring for her and our 18 month old Russian blue cat Cosmo, I have had experience pet sitting for my family, friends, and neighbors. I work from a home office, which provides the schedule flexibility to walk and care for your dog(s) during the day. In fact, I can accommodate 3-4 walks/play sessions per day. I can definitely take care of your kitty as well as administer meds for your 4 legged friend. Need more than just walks? No problem! I provide day/overnight care services as well… Offering your pet a fun, active, comfortable and (most importantly) safe place to be when you are working or out of town is one of the best perks of my work from home schedule. I have experience caring for all age dogs/cats including senior and special needs pets. My last cat was a vision impaired senior with a thyroid condition so I administered meds to him in his last years as needed. Whether or not your fur baby requires any special care or attention, I’m the Rover for you. My goal is to be present and engaged with your pet, so that they (and you) know that their time away from home is only 2nd best to being with you! Please let me know: If your pet has any special needs or behaviors that I should be aware of If your dog gets along with other dogs/cates Any special care information, including the need for medication, etc. I'm am in a work from home office schedule and am available daily as needed. I have great flexibility and can support your body schedule or your vacation time easily. I have a safe fenced in home on a quiet street.

Anthony G.
“He cares for my pugs when I would go out. It would be from up to 1-4 days. I would go to festivals and not worry about my pugs since I knew they were in great care and every rule was followed”
George S.
“I met George (AKA Dr. Doolittle) about 5 years ago, just before COVID turned our lives upside down. Spend a little time getting to know him and you’ll see that he has an insatiable passion for helping people and animals. During COVID, George was proactive in helping to rehome animals who were displaced by the pandemic AND was a very vocal advocate for animals affected by the shutdown. He loves animals and they love him back. I’ve never seen an animal that he couldn’t connect with—even my extremely ill tempered cat, Skipper, loves him! I would confidently recommend George to any person looking for animal care services. 🫶🏻🐱 🐶❤️”
