“My puppy, Python, loves going to Ashley's house! She has been Python's sitter since shortly after I got her at 6 weeks old. She's almost 5 months now, so Ashley's is like her home away from home. Ashley does great grooming, pays attention to and knows my puppy really well! She's reliable, caring, accommodating, and communicates well. I'm grateful to have her support in caring for my puppy!”
“Morgan is absolutely terrific! And her dog Attitcus is also a good playmate too! Morgan is very communicative— she provides tons of updates (both in photos and in writing) so that you know your pup is in good hands! She’s very responsive in her messages throughout the day. You’re never left wondering how your little furry is doing. She’s very flexible with dropoff and pickup times. She cares about your dog and its wellbeing in that it’s having a fun time at her place. She even dealt superbly with a surprise diarrhea situation that our puppy had. I’d highly recommend Morgan to others!”
About: We are a family of 5 with 2 loving and playful dogs of our own. Your doggie will be cared for as if it were our own. I work from home and have plenty of time to care for your love ones. Your love one will have lots of play time, potty breaks and extra snuggles from our boys. Our home has a big fenced backyard with plenty of space for your furry baby to play in. We also have 2 indoor crates for napping. Your pet will be provided with a fun, peaceful and safe environment.
“Rebekah is great! She accommodated our work schedule and was able to watch our dog earlier than previously expected on short notice. She is very communicative and treats our dog like her own!”
About: Hello! I have trained puppies and dogs for basic obedience and shows for 15 years. I started as a mentee at 9 with a certified show dog runner and trainer for 1.5 years and started training my neighbor’s dogs as practice. I have since started boarding various pets throughout college up until now. As a pet owner, I know just how important it is to find the right person to care for and be responsible for our family members - I’m definitely that person and will ensure the upmost respect for you and your pets! I like to give my clients and their pets the time to get to know me and feel like they’re making the right choice. I like to keep everything transparent and open for discussion. I live in a large two-story home with a fenced backyard and plenty of running space. I believe in lots of mental and physical stimulation to keep all animals in my care happy and healthy. I work from home at the moment so I have a very flexible schedule. I like to get 10k steps a day for my own health and make it a point to go for a 2 hour walk a day and love having a companion there with me :) My home is pet proofed from any toxic plants, food is kept out of reach, and my home is treated for pests and fleas monthly. I also have dog gates in case I ever need to section a part of the home off. I don’t like to use dog crates in my home and like to let pets have a lot of freedom and space to feel their most comfortable.
“Monica is so good with my puppy Emma, she didn’t want to leave Monica’s home! Emma is very young, which is enough work by itself, but Monica is even helping to train her! We feel so lucky to have found Monica.”
“Emma had a great time at Patricia's house. She was very relaxed and happy when I picked her up. Patricia lives a very short drive from the Costa Mesa Fairgrounds so if you are attending an all-day event there and don't want to have to worry about leaving your furry friend to fend for themselves all day, I highly recommend leaving your pet with Patricia. She is knowledgeable about dogs and very conscientious, having gone the extra mile to ensure that Emma was not able to get to any other animal's food (since Emma has food allergies). Patricia also texted me pics during the day of Emma enjoying her walk, which further helped to make my day more enjoyable by putting my mind at ease. I will not hesitate to book with Patricia again the next time I'm in the area!”
“We have taken our pup, Cooper, to Tommy multiple times now for daycare and are so happy with the care he’s received each time. Cooper is always happy to see him at drop off. We appreciate that Tommy provided updates about Cooper’s day especially the first couple of times, to help put our mind at ease. Would definitely recommend Tommy’s services!”
“Angie was the perfect fit for our dog! We spent the day at Disneyland knowing that our pup was in good hands. We love the fact that Angie works from home. She was able to send us photo updates throughout the day, take him on walks, and give him all the snuggles he needed as he was the only animal in her care. What a lucky dog! This was comforting for us and allowed us to completely enjoy our time at the park. Thank you, Angie!!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs my entire life. From our family pets, to finally getting my own almost 20 years ago! I now have 2 rescue dogs. I am experienced with high maintenance medical needs, as well as high energy pups. I am the go to babysitter & walker for my friends and friends of friends! I foster and volunteered through a local shelter many different dogs all shapes, sizes, and temperaments. I grew up with English Mastiffs, so big dogs don’t intimidate me at all! I love every dog I meet! My most commonly used phrase is definitely, “Can I say hi to your dog?” :) Dog sitting/walking is my only gig right now, and I am a mom to my kiddo full time. My schedule is very flexible, with lots of weekday availability, and some weekend availability, too! I have two friendly rescue dogs of my own (one medium-large mix, one pocket beagle), and love to walk them or take them to our on-property dog park!
“Nichole was able to take my dog for a day visit on short notice. Her dog was very sweet and very excited to meet me and my dog. Nichole replied to all my messages promptly and was accommodating when my pickup time changed. My dog seemed happy and tired when I picked her up, so seems like she had a fun day!”
“Hector took great care of our pup during doggy care for two days. He sent several photos each day and was very kind and courteous. We would highly recommend him! Thank you, Hector!”
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.
