About: Hi, my name is Shelley, and I would love to care for your dog! I live in a 2br condo in Mission Viejo with my two dogs. I love taking my dogs on long walks and hikes all over Orange County. I work from home, meaning your pooch would rarely be alone. I was a veterinary technician throughout college and have had dogs my entire life, so you can rest assured your dogs would be safe and well taken care of when they stay with me! Why I love dog sitting I have been a dog lover since before I could speak! I have had my own dog since the age of 2. He lived for 19 years and I took him and my schnauzer with me to college because I couldn't stand being away from them! I currently have a Jack Russell Mix that I adopted from the Baja Animal Sanctuary, and she's the most precious little girl. I volunteered throughout high school at a veterinary clinic and eventually worked as a veterinary technician through college. I had planned on going to vet school after taking some time off from undergrad, but I found an amazing career opportunity and now get my animal fix by taking care of friends' dogs when they are out of town. Meet my pets I have a small Jack Russell Mix that is 14 years old. She is a sweetheart once you get to know her, but can be intimidated by other dogs. I also have a 3 year old, 60 lb mixed breed pandemic "puppy" that is attached to me at all times. Mookie loves just about every dog and will love playing with your dog. About my yard Small deck and enclosed back yard perfect for sunbathing, bird watching, and the occasional lizard chasing. My experience administering medication Yes, I have had years of experience administering medication from giving oral pills, treating ears with ear flushes, giving eye drops, vaccines, subcutaneous fluids...you name it! I currently work from home, so I am available to keep your dog company all day long! Midday walks to the park for a lunch break are my favorite! I have a fully fenced backyard for your dog to safely sunbathe and take as many potty breaks as he or she may need. Come say hi!
“Nick was outstanding in taking care of our 4 dogs. One of them is diabetic and he kept us informed of her readings and gave her kibble if her glucose levels dropped below our safe level. He is very positive and patient.”
“Another awesome play day for my little Caleb with Annie! The progress pics during the day make me smile and feel at peace knowing Caleb is so well taken care of. Warms my heart. Thank you, Annie!”
“Jonathan was awesome! Our boy Murph is reactive, gets overaroused easily, steals anything he can get his hands on, and generally not super great with strangers (aka REALLY challenging). Jonathan followed our exact directions when first meeting him and Murph ended up loving him. You can definitely tell he has a lot of experience and patience. When we picked Murph up from daycare he seemed happy and calm, not stressed like he normally is at bigger daycares. He got two long walks and made two friends along the way. We look forward to booking with him again!”
About: Hi, I’m Samantha—your pet’s new favorite human. My friends voted me “Most Likely to Come Home from a Girls Weekend with a Dog,” and I wear that title proudly. I’ve been caring for animals my whole life—from horses and dogs on my grandparents’ farm to fostering pets and building cat walls in my spare time. I speak fluent cat and dog (yes, I understand the slow blink and the “where are you?” meow). I’m upbeat, funny, and dependable—and I’ll treat your fur-kids like family. When Auntie Samantha visits, pets get greeted first. It’s not personal—it’s priorities. I aim to build respectful, lasting partnerships with pet parents, and I’ll keep you updated with pics and notes so you always know your pet is safe, loved, and maybe a little spoiled. Since I work from home and for myself, my work schedule is very flexible. I enjoy helping others care for their four legged kids, since I remember never having enough time when I was younger. Our fur kids are very used to new siblings coming in the home. We have been fostering for PACT FOR ANIMALS for years. They provide foster homes for military personnel.
“Brian was very easy to work with and made us feel very comfortable leaving our new puppy with someone new. We received lots of photo updates during the day of our pup getting snuggles from he and his family, and making friends with the other dogs in his care. We plan to use Brian for our future dog sitting needs.”

“Alisa and her family were great! Clean house and lots of love for my boy Sherlock. Flexible with drop off + pickup for daycare. If I am ever in town again I would use her for sitting.”
“Chris was a fantastic host for our little Finnegan, and on really short notice! Chris did a great job of introducing his 3 dogs in a slow manner, showed us around his place and explained everything about his care in great details. Her was very communicative and friendly throughout the day, making sure that we got plenty of pictures and updates. I would be happy to let Finnegan come back and stay here again!”
“I left my 4 month old mini doxie pup with Claudia for doggie daycare! It was his first time being dropped off with a stranger for the day so I was a little nervous for her sake and his! Upon arriving I was greeted by Claudia and her incredibly calm and sweet dog! I immediately felt at ease seeing her energy around him (again calm, friendly) and knew he’d okay! Claudia was great at communicating updates about our pup throughout the day and I could tell he was having a great time. I was delighted to bring him back home and have him sleep right away haha, she clearly gave him a full, fun day of attention and activities. Very glad to have found a reliable dog sitter like Claudia and couldn't recommend her more!”
“Thanks so much, Sondra, for taking such good care of Sumo and Gromit! They slept great last night and they're looking forward to seeing you over the Christmas break!”

We always have a great experience with Chris! He was communicative, transparent, and incredibly easy to work with from start to finish. We always feel completely comfortable knowing our pup was in good hands. He's always wonderful with our Niko, and I love how he genuinely cares about the pets he watches. We really appreciate the updates and reliability, and we'll definitely keep coming back to him in the future. Highly recommend!
Jonathan was awesome! Our boy Murph is reactive, gets overaroused easily, steals anything he can get his hands on, and generally not super great with strangers (aka REALLY challenging). Jonathan followed our exact directions when first meeting him and Murph ended up loving him. You can definitely tell he has a lot of experience and patience. When we picked Murph up from daycare he seemed happy and calm, not stressed like he normally is at bigger daycares. He got two long walks and made two friends along the way.

Ashley is a caring and kind sitter who did a wonderful job taking care of our dog Henry. She made sure he was loved and comfortable while at her home. She's responsive and sends photos of your dog so you can feel at ease while you're away. She has two sweetest girls that are amazing with your dog and Henry loved all the attention he received from them.
omeira was absolutely wonderful! She is so sweet, attentive, and incredibly communicative throughout the entire stay, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear from the updates and photos that the dogs were having a great time—they looked happy, relaxed, and loved getting to play and enjoy themselves. I truly appreciated how caring and thoughtful she was with them. I would absolutely book with Homeira again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and kind to care for their dogs!
Alina is awesome! She took such good care of my sweet girl Honey when I needed last minute help while working away from home. She kept me updated throughout the day with pictures and notes about how Honey was doing. She took her on multiple walks, and Honey acclimated to her very quickly. I would absolutely book her again.
Olivia and her family were so sweet and welcoming to Rolly. She felt right at home and got along great with their dog. She got a nice afternoon walk as well. Olivia was very good at communicating with me during her stay and sent pictures and updates which I really appreciated.
I moved to town and needed a full 40h/ week dog sitter and knowing it’s not always an easy thing to find, I was super blessed to find Jacqueline. She has made morning drop off and evening pick ups super seamless, and has taken such great care of my pup that I can tell sometimes he doesn’t want to leave! Haha. Very caring and communicative. Would highly recommend!
We had a truly wonderful experience with Zachary and his wife! They were incredibly accommodating, even arranging a pre-visit meet-and-greet so our greyhound, Turbo, could get acquainted with their wonderfully trained dog, Akira. Zachary's expertise in dog behavior and training was evident, and their home was perfectly set up for a large, relaxed dog like ours. All in all, it was a fantastic stay, and we'll definitely be repeat customers!
