“Kristen was so communicative with our kitty. She sent pictures and videos throughout the visit and was a pleasure to work with. This was my first time leaving kitty on her own for the weekend & it was really nice to know she was in good hands.”


“Vi is without a doubt the best pet sitter we have ever had. She provided the most detailed updates and photos daily. She took the time to take our cat to the vet at our request after he experienced some relapsing symptoms of a prior injury. Cannot recommend her more. We felt like our cat was so loved and cared for under her watch.”


“Roxanne was reliable, flexible, and overall a great caretaker for my cat! I’d definitely recommend and will be using her again.”


“We have only had our initial meeting and introduced the dogs and their routine. I have no doubt that Shoshanna will be amazing. She seems very organized and detail oriented.”


“Krista and Kelsey took care of my cat for two weeks with drop-in visits, and I couldn’t have asked for better sitters. They were always on time, extremely reliable, and fantastic with communication. I received regular updates and the sweetest photos every day, which really gave me peace of mind while I was away. What really stood out was how thoughtful they were. Krista even brought toys for my cat, which was such a kind and unexpected surprise! My cat absolutely loved the extra attention and care. You can tell they truly care about animals, and it shows in everything they do. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy, attentive, and compassionate pet sitters! Christine (Kitty)”


About: I love pets but don’t currently have one of my own, so looking to hang and play with yours! I had a puppy or dog all throughout my childhood. I am thrilled to have new flexibility in my full time job to be able to spend time with dogs on a more regular basis! I work from home full time and make my own schedule. I am relatively flexible for walking and caring for pets on weekdays depending on time and day of the week! I am a very respectful person and strive to leave things better than I found them. I plan to focus on the pets in clients homes and the tasks at hand! I love walking and know of several great areas for walking and playing depending on the pet’s needs!

“Shianne did a wonderful job checking in on our cat Ruby. She was extremely polite and communicative and sent great updates. I highly recommend hiring her :).”


About: I’ve been passionate about animals for as long as I can remember. I started volunteering at a local animal shelter in high school back in New Jersey, which gave me hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages and temperaments. After moving to NYC, I worked with Social Tees Animal Rescue to foster multiple dogs in my apartment — each with their own personality, needs, and quirks. I loved the challenge and joy of helping them feel safe, loved, and ready for their forever homes. Now that I’m new to Orange County, I’m eager to get involved in the local animal rescue community and am actively researching nearby shelters. In the meantime, I’m hoping to fill the dog-shaped hole in my heart by caring for pups through Rover. I grew up with yellow labs and recently said goodbye to my family dogs, Bo and Luke, in New Jersey — so I know just how special that bond is and how much trust it takes to leave your pets in someone else’s care. I work fully from home, which gives me the flexibility to provide attentive, consistent care throughout the day. I’m also very active — I’m a runner and yoga teacher — and I take multiple walks along the beach daily, so adding a dog to that routine would be a joy. Regular bathroom breaks, exercise, and quality time are never an issue with my schedule. Whether your pup needs lots of outdoor time or just some extra cuddles and attention during the day, I can easily adjust to their needs. I genuinely enjoy having a dog around and look forward to building a connection with each one I care for. Safety and comfort are always my top priorities. Whether I’m caring for a dog in my home or theirs, I make sure the space is completely dog-proofed — no food or harmful items within reach, trash secured, and any off-limits areas blocked off. I always do a quick sweep of the environment to remove potential hazards before the pet arrives or I begin my stay. I also take time to understand each pet’s specific needs and routines — from feeding schedules to preferred walking routes or quirks around other dogs. I never leave pets unsupervised in unfamiliar environments, and I’m mindful of keeping doors securely shut, leashes clipped properly, and making sure they're never out of sight on walks. My goal is to create a calm, safe, and cozy environment where pets feel at ease and pet parents feel confident their animals are in caring, capable hands.

“Kelsey was so amazing with our kitten Moo! She sent us pictures and updates throughout the entire stay. We will be booking Kelsey again! She is trustworthy for your fur baby!!”


About: I’ve loved animals since I was little and have always had childhood pets. Dogs, cats, birds, you name it! I currently have two kitties- a tuxedo and orange tabby that I love so much. I take care of your pets as if they were my own :) I am currently working remotely as a mental health therapist and have a pretty flexible schedule. I am available most afternoons and evenings and mornings and all times on weekends, but can adapt to your schedule most of the time. I am always mindful that I am coming into your home and will follow all house rules. I will do everything that is asked and maybe play with your pets a little too much!

About: As the oldest child, I was the go-to dog caregiver growing up—basically a mini pet-sitter. Over the years, I've also cared for friends' cats and dogs while they went on vacation, making sure they felt at ease. Currently a student of physical therapy, I am attending classes online and have flexibility to give your pets some extra love and attention when needed! Very open schedule and willing to accommodate to different hours/ days! I tailor my care to each pet’s needs, from their routine to playtime, ensuring they feel comfortable and loved at home. For walks, I choose safe, calm routes that match their energy level, keeping their safety and well-being a top priority.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs and other pets for over 5 years, helping family, friends, and neighbors with everything from daily walks to overnight stays! I treat every pet like my own. I’m reliable and always happy to send updates and photos so you can feel at ease while your pet is in good hands! I work part-time, so I have plenty of flexibility and free time to give your pets the attention they deserve! I’m available Monday through Friday from 9 am to 6 pm for walks, drop-in visits, play time. When caring for pets in your home, I prioritize safety and comfort! I always follow your pet’s routine closely to help them feel secure :)

“Danielle did an amazing job taking care of my cat, Dixie on super short notice. She was very professional and provided my cat with medication which can be difficult. Would definitely recommend her as a sitter!!”


About: Since I was four years old, I’ve been raising pets—dogs, cats, fish, turtles, snakes, hamsters, rabbits, and more. I can remember the name of every single one. By the time I turned eight, I was taking care of them all by myself—feeding them, cooking for them, walking the dogs, cleaning, and even giving them baths. To ensure their well-being, I also learned about common pet illnesses so I could handle emergencies. When I entered high school, I started helping my neighbors and friends care for their pets, and I became involved in animal rescue efforts and donations. Ever since I was a child, I’ve had a dream—to build a shelter for stray animals and provide a safe haven for those in need, making the world a better place for them. I’m currently working part-time, which means I have plenty of time to spend playing with your puppy or kitten! I’m available for appointments before 8 AM on weekdays and anytime after 3 PM. Most weekends, I’m completely free as well! Plus, I work out regularly, so I have more than enough energy to go on runs with your dog—haha! 🐶🐾 I’m happy to offer full video call supervision or provide video and text updates throughout the visit. I can also bring my own shoe covers for home visits to ensure cleanliness. During my time with your pet, I’ll pay close attention to all the little details and provide you with a thorough report afterward! 🐾📸

About: I grew up with a cocker spaniel family dog I trained and cared for, along with pet sitting throughout college! Attention, love & walks will be given. Along with the small details you're willing to share to make their stay and walks seamless! Currently working full-time in sales and have availability in the early mornings, afternoon and evenings Monday - Friday. On the weekends I have 100% availability. I have a fenced in front yard, as well as a fenced in back patio. I live in an apartment 2BD townhome in Newport beach, with accessible sidewalks to walk on. Able to have your pets in a crate or without, depending on your pets routine.

“Alaina was very communicative and was very good with my feisty cat. She was able to work around my issues with getting into my apartment and was even so kind to vacuum up some of the litter that my cat was tracking! I will definitely be rebooking her.”


“Liv was sooo great with my kitty! She helped drop-in to feed & play with my cat when I was out of town. She was very communicative & my cat warmed up to her instantly! 10/10 would recommend.”


“Sara was fantastic! My cat warmed up to her after just a day or two, which is almost unheard of, she sent great photos, and was an excellent communicator. Would absolutely recommend Sara to anyone and will rebook again!”

“Quick response and attentive care to our dog and what he needed.”


“Marilyn did a INCREDIBLE job with our kitten while we were on vacation for a week! This was our first time using Rover, so like any pet parent going away for the first time, we were a little nervous. She quickly made those fears go away. From our first meet and greet visit, she was professional and so sweet and extremely trustworthy. She was so communicative and made us feel like our cat was comfortable and safe the entire time we were gone. We appreciated her prompt responses, picture and video updates, and how sweet she was with her. Will 100% be using Marilyn’s services any time we are out of town! Highly, highly recommend!!!!”
