“Ilana did an amazing job taking care of our dog. She was on time, followed all instructions, and communicated well. Before we left, she made sure to come by our house to meet the dog, take him for a walk, and really get to know him and our needs. While we were gone, we always knew what was happening as she communicated so effectively. She is the next best thing to having us home! 5 Stars - we will use Ilana again!”
“Lindsey was very communicative and sweet!! Teddy was in great hands with her!”
“John could write the book on how to be a rover. I’ve never felt so sure that my pets were in good hands and shown love. He was detailed in his messages and sent many photos. He also cleaned the litter boxes every day even though I didn’t ask him too! My only regret in giving him 5 stars is that too many people will want him in the future and I won’t be able to book him. Thank you, John! You’re the best!”
About: I have always been a huge dog lover and have grown up around many dog breeds in my life. I am very active and can help expend any pent up energy your pup might have with long walks and games of fetch! I am currently visiting my parents for a while and will have a lot of time during their work day to spend time with the doggos I care for your pets and your home as carefully and lovingly as I would my own. I always want to prioritize the safety and well-being of your beloved pet :)
“Awesomazing Amanda!! From start to finish this was a beyond wonderful experience. Amanda quickly responded to my inquiry, addressed all of my concerns, and the ‘meet n greet’ was not only delightful, but SO reassuring. She was completely in tune with my Maine Coon’s personality, and I was comfortable knowing my old boy (12 1/2 years) Coda was going to be well taken care of. It was especially nice knowing he was being cared for in a home environment, complete with a climbing post, a comfy spot on the couch, and loving lap. Add to all of that, Amanda updated me daily with videos and pictures of Coda getting acclimated and settling in. Naturally, he was happy to be home after 5 days, but not ‘pissy’ as he has been in the past after stays in a kennel! Best. Experience. Ever!! I will definitely use Amanda’s loving services again, and highly recommend!!”
About: Since I was a kid, I have enjoyed spending as much time as I can with animals. In fact, one of my greatest joys is being with animals. My grandfather (who was a farmer for part of his life) impressed upon me the importance of caring for animals. I consider your pets my family. I have 9 years experience owning and working with a variety of pets including rats, cats, dogs, and tortoises! I have experience working with pets with anxiety and other special needs. My favorite part of drop ins & walks is the satisfaction of knowing I made a difference in your furry friend’s day. I have a calm and friendly demeanor, and I have great rapport with dogs and cats. I make it a point to read and interpret dog & cat body language. I have worked with skittish cats who warmed up to me. I love playing with cats and dogs alike, and understand how important it is for your friend to have his or her play time. If your pet has a favorite toy, let me know. I will cook or prepare raw food per your instructions if this is your preference. My availability is as follows: Mon-Sunday morning and/or evenings. May be able to do noon or afternoon. I want to do what you do, so I will take note of your walk or routine. Does your dog like brisk walks or slow walks, do they like to go to a nearby park or prefer walking in your neighborhood? Do you like to mix it up with a new spot each time? I strongly urge all bookings to have a meet & greet before the booking date in order to see how your pet takes to me. Special note: occasionally, the Rover app may estimate your distance from me being up to 5 or 6 miles off. This occasionally happens depending on where the client entered the information or where they were when they booked. I may ask you for general cross streets or zip code before I confirm a booking to ensure I will be able to accommodate your dog or cat. For bookings that are more than 10 miles distance, I do charge a $4 gas fee per booking. I treat your home with respect. I strive for cleanliness, and I take precautions to ensure the healthiest environment for you and your pet. This includes sanitizing my hands before entering your home, and washing my hands before pet feeding and watering. I am a weekend sitter. I am available on weekends. Do you want to get away for the weekend or need to catch up on extra work or phone calls? Do want your dog to have a good walk and time as well? Reach out to me. I am available on the weekends! On weekdays, I cannot guarantee availability on all days, but I am occasionally available in the mornings and evenings if I am all caught up on my lesson planning. While I cannot guarantee full availability on all weekdays, feel free and ask! *note: I charge a $5 travel fee if outside my service radius to account for gas and time. I currently am unable to have animals at my place of residence. This is one of the reasons I love taking care of your dog or cat so I can have some interaction with them.
About: I have been dog sitting for 15 years. My clients have been with me for 15 years and using my pet sitting services. I am compassionate and understanding of different dog breeds and personalities. I understand some like playtime others want affection and attention. Whatever their need I am here. I look forward to meeting you and your furry friend(s)! I’m available to pet sit weekdays and weekends anytime between the hours of 9am-8pm.

Was a volunteer at Mission Viejo animal services for 1.5 yrs I am currently working a M-F job 7-5pm looking for a little bit of extra money!

My dog gets supper excited every time he hears the name Ryan knowing well that he’s going to have a great play date and also get lots of love and treats. Ryan has shown me and my dog how to really understand each other and be patient with one another. He has definitely taught me so much about my dog and huskies in general and their characteristics. Ryan will always be the person I go to and fully trust to leave my puppy dog Dante.”
