“Michelle was great on communication, so sweet, sent photos, kept in touch, listened to instructions, has a great space for dogs to run. I couldn’t be happier with how her sitting my dog went. I highly recommend Michelle.”


“Bennie and Jennie did another wonderful job taking care of Freddie . He is happy to see me when I get home but a bit mopey because he misses them . He enjoys their care and attention. He was fed brushed and played with all the things he needs to keep my baby healthy and safe . I can’t say enough about how comfortable and secure I feel knowing they are in my house taking care of Freddie . They are respectful trust worthy and leave my house cleaner than when I left without my having to ask. It’s such a relief knowing I can plan a trip and if they are available I don’t have to worry about anything at home. Highly recommend these sweet caretakers if you need a babysitter .”


“Cece (Courtie) went above and beyond for us. A week before the booked stay our pup got sick and ended up in the hospital. Cece was incredibly flexible to stay and make sure he had round the clock care and all meds. They checked in with us and sent photos throughout. Our boys were very happy after there weekend with Cece. Highly recommend and we all can’t wait to see them for there next stay!”


“Breanna did an amazing job with our dogs! They’re a a couple of oldies that can be very particular, but she took it on without a problem — we would def have her back again!”


“Sarah was wonderful! She took excellent care of our two dogs (one with special needs). She was very attentive and sent updates and adorable photos multiple times per day. She also took care of our house while we were gone. I would absolutely hire her to housesit for us again!”


“Brynn was amazing, I felt confident in her abilities to take care of our pups. Super communicative, really took the time to understand all care instructions! I feel like she left our place cleaner than we left it.”


“My dogs loved Juliana. She was timely, sent videos and photos and did a very nice, job. She is very professional and I would definitely use her again.”


“We had Don watch our 3 year old dog for 3 nights and 4 days. He was absolutely the perfect sitter. He arrived at 5:30AM so we could have our dog be with him while we headed to the airport to relieve any anxiety and stayed until 7:00PM so we could get back not too late with our dog being alone. Don was very kind, sweet, and attentive towards our dog. He asked for a detailed item list for his stay, he sent us a ton of photos and videos without us having to always ask, and reached out to help clean up sheets, vacuum, take the trash out before his stay ended. You can tell he has a passion for dogs and truly enjoys spending time with them. I would highly recommend Don if you are looking to enjoy your vacation or time away and want to feel like you can trust someone to make your dog happy. We look forward to hiring him again next time we are out of town. He will be our first choice in sitters moving forward.”


“The best!”


“Michelle was able to help us watch our 2 cats on short notice. She followed our directions and updated us with photos and messages. She seemed comfortable with caring for our temperamental grumpy cat and our other cat loved her.”


“Serena was great! Thank you so much for staying with my fur babies. The house looked great, and the dogs appeared well cared for. She brought toys, and sent me lots of pictures, and even filled my outdoor bird feeder! Love that she loved ALL my creatures. I would definitely recommend her.”


About: Since birth, I have never not owned a pet (specifically dogs and cats). So I guess you could say I have a lifetime of experience? 🤷🏼♀️ But seriously - I’ve been watching my family’s dogs since high school, and have expanded to now being the trusted sitter for my friends! I not only grew up in an animal household, but I am the proud momma of a cat! She is literally my child - I taught her how to do tricks, walk on a harness, and even socialized her with people so she wouldn’t be afraid when we had guests! I spent a lot of time researching cat behavior and care - and rest assured I would take the same tender love and care for your fur baby as well. Since I have over a decade of experience caring for cats and dogs - I can handle anything ranging from energetic puppies, to managing the medical and medicinal needs of a senior dog. No task is too big or too little for your pooch. Thank you for taking a chance on me - I promise to love and care for your pet as if they were my own! I will not only do my best in making sure the needs of your dog are met - but I will also provide constant photos and check ins! Thank you for the opportunity - and I look forward to meeting my new furry best friend! 🐾 I WFH full time so I have a lot of flexibility to step away during the day to run errands, or check on your fur babies! I have a laptop so I can also bring that for overnight stays, so no worries on that front! I live in an apartment with my husband, and our cat Daisy 🌼 We do a good job splitting the care of our cat, so no issues if I need to step away for a couple hours to do a check in or walk, or an overnight stay! As a pet owner myself - I know how stressful it is to leave your fur baby with someone new. I will follow your instructions to a T - and make sure there is constant communication on the wellbeing of your pet. I will make sure I understand what is expected of me before you leave - so you have peace of mind that your fur baby is well taken care of. I also encourage a meet and greet before booking - I can meet your baby and we can go over specifics!

About: Hi, I’m Vandy! My husband and I both work from home, which means your dog will enjoy round‑the‑clock love, supervision, and plenty of attention. We live right across from Tustin Legacy Park, surrounded by beautiful walking trails and several dog parks, so daily walks and playtime are always part of the routine. Our apartment is a cozy one‑bedroom with a den. There is plenty of space for pets to feel at home and our patio has dog‑friendly turf, perfect for quick potty breaks if needed. We only accept a limited number of bookings at a time so every dog gets personalized care in a safe, calm environment. We’ve cared for small, medium, and large dogs over the years and know how to make pets feel comfortable away from their families. We’re especially mindful of maintaining your dog’s usual schedule, feeding routine, and comfort items (beds, toys) to reduce stress while you’re away. We send frequent photo and video updates so you can relax knowing your dog is not just cared for, but loved as if they were our own. Whether it’s boarding or daycare, we’re here to give your pup the perfect home‑away‑from‑home experience. Since my husband and I both work from home, we’re around to give dogs plenty of attention throughout the day - from morning potty breaks to mid‑day walks and evening playtime. Our community has multiple dog‑friendly parks and walking paths right outside our door, so walks are built naturally into our daily routine. When we want to give dogs extra adventure, we also have Tustin Legacy Park nearby for longer outings. Safety and comfort are at the heart of how we care for pets. Our home is fully dog‑friendly. We’ve secured anything that could be harmful and keep our few houseplants safely out of reach. Our patio is completely fenced and enclosed with turf, giving dogs a secure space for quick potty breaks or fresh air time. We only host one booking at a time (or pets from the same family), so your dog will always get calm, personalized attention. We follow your instructions closely -feeding, walks, and routines -and provide frequent photo and video updates, so you can relax knowing your pet is safe, loved, and cared for like family.

“Emily was fantastic and did a great job handling all 3 of our animals! She was also great at sending us updates to let us know everything was going well. We would highly recommend her to anyone!”


“Sabrina is a thoughtful, kind & resourceful sitter. She spent 5 days at our place taking really good care of our boy Beau. We got texts & photos. I think Beau fell in love with her. In the future if need be, we’d be very happy having Sabrina sit with our Beau. Thanks Sabrina!”


“Elizabeth is amazing! I cannot imagine a better pet sitter. I was gone for 10 days, and the whole time she was communicative and sent lots of pictures. When I got home, my apartment was better than I left it! I could tell both of my pets were comfortable with and well loved by her. Thank you Elizabeth!!!”


About: I grew up with 2 cats and 2 dogs. In college, my roommate brought her dog in, and when she was away, I treated her dog as my own. I walked, fed, and played with her. I have a lot of experience taking care of them. I currently volunteer at the OC Animal Shelter in the kitten nursery and took a dog 101 course. No matter what type of pet you have, I would love to care for them. I'm free after 5 pm Monday-Thursday and Friday after 2 pm. Saturday and Sunday, I'm free most mornings, and I will always be free after 1 pm. I respond quickly and send however many updates/pictures you want. I will always keep an eye on your pet, even if they are in an enclosed environment. I will follow any instruction/schedule to the tee. Even though I'm energetic, if your pet wants a calm night, I will be able to provide it. My main priority is making sure your pet feels safe and loved.

“Alex was prompt, professional, had good communication, and did well with our pup. Definitely recommend Alex!”


“Yoshiko was one of THE BEST sitter we've ever had. She kept the place extremely clean, probably even cleaner than when we left it. Our dog looked healthy and happy in Yoshiko's care. She was extremely communicative throughout the whole process, and very respectful of our space. We've had many Rover sitters in the past, and we'd always be nervous leaving our dog in someone else's care, but Yoshiko made us feel extremely at ease while being away. We would definitely have Yoshiko care for our dog again any time we're away.”


About: I love animals and I have my own fur baby, a gentle giant cane corso! I follow instructions given from pawrent and like to see other pets personalities. I’m currently working part time and full time student. Sundays are my only free days and being around pets would be a great way to not worry about school or work! I listen and follow instructions! As a fur parent, I know how important it is to have structure and routine in a pets life. Can’t wait to meet them!

Ashlee H.
“Ashlee is my top choice for watching my dogs when we go out of town over long weekends. We have 2 senior dogs - a 14 year old chihuahua, and an 11 year old golden retriever. Ashlee is our most trusted sitter because she is very good at giving both dogs their medicine. The golden is easy, put the pill in her kibble. The chihuahua is more difficult as her meds need to be crushed and mixed with water, and mixed in with her food. Plus the chihuahua doesnt sleep well overnight, waking up constantly. Ashlee is very good about letting her out regardless of what time it is at night, and whether or not she was sleeping. Our dogs are definitely not easy, but Ashlee is always more than happy to watch them. Our dogs love her, and were so lucky to have found a great sitter! As an added bonus - we also have a hermit crab and some fish and she makes sure theyre also taken care of!”
