House Sitting Mission Viejo

“Kaitlyn took exceptional care of our special-needs Ragdoll while we were away. Our cat has asthma and requires multiple medications, including a nebulizer, an inhaler, and pills. Kaitlyn went above and beyond our expectations, ensuring he received all his treatments with care and patience. Not only is she extremely reliable and professional, but she also took great care of our home. When our kitty had a litter box accident and needed a bath, she handled it without hesitation—something not every pet sitter would be willing to do! On top of that, she spent more time with him than we even asked, knowing that he doesn’t like to be alone. That extra care and attention meant so much to us. We returned home to a well-cared-for cat and a house that was just as we left it. We highly recommend Kaitlyn to anyone looking for a compassionate, professional, and dependable pet sitter.”

“David was truly awesome. I think our pets wish he was still there and we didn’t come back! He was very attentive and took such great care of them. He was also super communicative and sent pictures and an update every day. He was even flexible when our travel got messed up. I highly recommend him. He kept our pets and our house cared for and attended to. He is very thoughtful as well. Couldn’t ask for more.”

“Seph was completely amazing and wonderful. He watched my 5 year old GSD for nearly two weeks. His professionalism and knowledge of dogs were comforting from the start. He even went so far as to meet at my house at 5:30am on New Years Day just to ensure he was here to make my Theo comfortable and calm as I left for a trip. Seph updated us daily with pics and news, Theo has a new best friend in Seph. Honestly, can't say enough good things and will be my first choice when I need a dog sitter!!!”

About: I grew up in a lively household with 6 dogs and 3 cats, so caring for animals has always been second nature to me. Over the last 15 years, I’ve pet sat for nearly everyone in my life- friends, family, neighbors, you name it. Whether it’s long walks, belly rubs, medication for seniors, or playtime with energetic pups, I bring patience, attentiveness, and genuine love to every animal I care for. This path felt inevitable. So here I am I work a hybrid schedule, which gives me a flexible schedule to offer walks or check-ins throughout the day. I take regular strolls to the park and around the lake, so I’d love a furry friend to join me! Whether it’s a morning walk, a midday play session, or a relaxing evening cuddle, I’m home and available to give your pet the attention they deserve. I have a fully fenced-in, sun-filled patio with a large, comfy outdoor couch- perfect for lounging in the fresh air, surrounded by birds and plants. Inside, pets can relax on a spacious, pet-friendly couch and feel right at home. I’m attentive to each pet’s needs and can create a calm, secure environment tailored to their comfort, whether they’re staying the day or overnight.

“Saeedeh was great with our 10 year old Aussie/Border Collie. Truly put us at ease to know she was being loved and well cared for. Highly recommend.”

About: I have more than 30 years of experience. I started dog-sitting for friends and family and through private referrals. I have cared for dogs of all ages. I will keep you updated with photos and messages. And for additional peace of mind, I have pet-sitter insurance (certificate available upon request). Doggy socializing (the dog park, Starbucks, restaurant patios, doggy play dates with their friends or your fur baby's other favorite hangout spot) are included during overnight stays with dog parents' permission of course. I work from home which allows me to give your fur babies the love and attention that you would want for them and that they deserve. My aim is to provide next level service and to help lessen the stress of being away from your fur baby. All I need is a place to crash (I don't mind sharing the bed with your dogs), the Wi-Fi password, and your doggos to hang out with. I’ll make sure they’re comfortable, safe, relaxed, doted on and well looked after while you’re away. Rest assured, during overnight bookings, your pets will be the only ones that I take care of. Meaning, I won't book any drop-ins or walks with other clients.

“Stella did a great job. Harley was walked 2-3 x a day. He really was Happy to see her when the key was dropped off. The house was left spotless. We would definitely use Stella again to watch Harley and our house.”

About: My mom raised me from the beginning about being gentle and empathetic towards animals. She showed me how to care for all types of animals and give them the very best lives we could. I’ve cared and pet sat since i was 12. I got my first full pet sitting gig in my neighborhood for a whole week. Ever since then, I have loved caring for animals and am extremely passionate about giving them the upmost care they deserve. Because they’re family too! I have three cats and a dog myself so I can relate to you on a relatable level! I currently don’t have a day job as I have a chronic illness, and taking care of animals is exactly what i love doing. looking to be around animals and help people who need animal care is my goal. So I have a lot of time on my hands to take care of pets all over the oc area. My schedule is very open and accommodating to all in need of care. Pet care is extremely important to me, I love to take my own dog to the park and let him run and run and run. My cats I actively brush them, clean their ears, litter, etc. I own a double coated dog so I often spend time brushing him in the backyard and tossing a ball back and forth.

About: I have cared for many pets over the last 8+ years. I have been working at a local dog daycare for a year and a half. At the daycare, I work specifically with shy/senior dogs, and am passionate about making sure they get extra love. I love walking dogs, playing fetch with them, and especially cuddling with them. I am a grad student currently on summer break. I have an internship that I attend a couple of days a week, but am overall flexible schedule-wise. I have a fenced in yard with lots of grass/space for dogs to run around, play in the sprinklers (if they like water, of course), and lay in the sun. I love wrapping pups up in comfy blankets for bedtime.

“Leila did an amazing job of taking care of our elderly cat and our home! She checked in with us frequently and sent photos. We would absolutely book with her again!”

About: With 20+ years of dog ownership, I offer reliable, attentive care tailored to each dog’s needs. I’m comfortable with puppies, adult dogs, and seniors, and I create a calm, structured environment where your pet will feel at home. I work full-time Monday–Friday, but I’m remote on Fridays, which makes drop-offs easy that day. I’m available for care Friday through Sunday, with flexible pickup anytime Sunday. I provide a safe, clean, and calm home where pets are always supervised and treated like family. I follow each dog’s routine closely, including feeding, potty breaks, and any specific instructions. My home is pet-friendly, and I make sure all dogs feel comfortable, secure, and stress-free. I also have a friendly, well-socialized dog for companionship if your pup enjoys other dogs.

About: I grew up caring for dogs and have two of my own, Ruby and Hazel, who taught me a lot about patience, routine, and understanding different personalities. Because of them, I’m comfortable with everything from daily walks to managing feeding schedules, giving plenty of playtime, and keeping a calm, safe environment. I’m used to working with both puppies and older dogs who may need a little extra support. I pay close attention to each dog’s needs and habits so owners feel confident that their pets are understood and cared for. What sets me apart is the level of communication and care I provide. I always keep owners updated, share photos, and make sure every dog feels comfortable, happy, and loved while you are away. Pet care is already part of my daily routine because I care for my two dogs, Ruby and Hazel. I’m used to morning and evening walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and giving them lots of attention throughout the day. Adding walks or drop-ins fits naturally into my schedule, and I make sure I have enough time set aside so every dog gets proper care without feeling rushed. On a weekly basis, I plan around the pets I’m responsible for, whether that means regular walks, check-ins, or longer stays. I’m consistent, reliable, and comfortable building a routine that keeps each dog happy and supported. When I’m caring for pets in my home, I focus on keeping them comfortable and safe. I follow their usual routines for feeding, walks, playtime, and rest so they feel at ease. I keep a clean space, monitor them closely, and make sure they get plenty of attention and affection, just like Ruby and Hazel do every day. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I always respect the owner’s rules and the dog’s normal routine. I make sure feeding times, walk schedules, and any training habits stay consistent. I give regular updates, and make sure the dog feels secure in a familiar environment. My goal in both settings is to keep each pet happy, calm, and cared for while giving owners peace of mind.

About: I am both friendly and respectable to animals. Ive had the privilege to live with my families Lhasa apso for 12 years, so I am qualified with the basic necessities to care for any 4 legged friend. I am currently flexible with my time, so scheduling anything at the last minute is fine by me. I spend most of my time at a art studio with plenty of room and is pet friendly. I would to be aware of any medical or special needs that your pet my have before any hand off. If you need to drop off your dog with me, I have a studio space with plenty of room for any dog to run around.
