“Frances is wonderful! She’s incredibly responsive and flexible. We have a high energy, large pup that is still requiring a lot of leash training - Frances jumped right in to help continue that work! Also really love all the cute photos we get. Our pup loved her right away and can’t wait for another visit! Definitely recommend!”


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: With over 400 hours of volunteer service at my local animal shelter, two years of hands-on internship experience at the Mission Viejo Animal Shelter, and countless hours spent pet sitting a wide variety of animals—from horses to hamsters—I have developed a deep understanding of animal care and behavior. My diverse background has taught me how to respond to the unique needs of each animal, whether it's providing comfort, administering care, or simply offering companionship. This combination of formal training, volunteer service, and real-world experience makes me a dedicated, responsible, and knowledgeable caretaker who will treat your pet like family. Taking care of animals is part of my everyday life. I start with my own pets—feeding, walking, and giving them some love. Then I head out for pet sitting and dog walking jobs. Every day’s a mix of walks, feedings, playtime, and making sure each pet feels safe and cared for. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I make it a priority to meet every animal’s individual needs—whether that means administering specific veterinary care or simply offering comfort, play, and companionship. I take the time to get to know each pet’s personality, routine, and health requirements. For some, that might involve giving medications on schedule, managing special diets, or monitoring for specific health concerns. For others, it could be making sure they get plenty of playtime, long walks, or just quiet snuggles on the couch. I always strive to create a safe, loving, and stress-free environment, treating every pet as if they were my own.

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life, but what really sets me apart is the hands-on experience I gained caring for my family’s Bernese Mountain Dog who had mobility challenges. Through that, I learned to be incredibly patient, gentle, and attentive—especially with dogs who need a little extra support and understanding. I’m very comfortable with large breed dogs (100+ lbs) and know how to handle them with confidence and care. Whether it’s helping them up and down stairs, supporting them on walks, or just giving them space and structure, I know what they need to feel safe and loved. I’m also experienced with: • Senior dogs who need slower paces and extra comfort • Puppies who are learning the ropes—crate training, house training, and basic boundaries Every pet has their own personality and needs, and I take pride in adapting my care style to match. Whether your dog loves playtime or prefers quiet companionship, I’ll be there to give them the attention they deserve. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities—and I’ll keep you updated with plenty of photos and notes along the way! I currently work a full time job that is mostly work from home, with the exception of one day in office. I’m usually up early in the morning for workout classes and am able to pop in for feedings and walks in the morning or afternoon. I usually am fairly open in the evenings as well during the week and would be able to help out then as well. I usually stay local on the weekends so I should be available as needed depending on my schedule that week. I’m happy to feed, walk, and play with your dog. I love animals and we can discuss whatever your pet needs to feel safe, taken care of, and at ease while you’re away.

About: I've owned pets since I was 12 yrs old. I always had to walk & bathe my dog & feed & clean my hamster cage! My company laid me off my full-time job in March. So I signed up to do a 50 mile dog walk for cancer with my dog Gidget I wouldn't do care in my home since our back yard is small & has a pool. I take my own dog for 2 walks a day. I would treat other animals just as I would my own.

About: A pet parent with 2 fur babies (German Sheperd and Tuxedo Kitty) of my own, and years of dog sitting and walking experience!

I am currently available Monday, Wednesday, and Friday mornings, Tuesday and Thursday afternoons, and weekends if in town!

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 :)

About: An animal lover since I can remember, nothing makes me happier than making animals happy. It brings me so much joy to make sure your dog has a great day when you're not able to be there. Growing up with all different kinds of animals has been a blessing. I am very knowledgeable in caring for dogs and will take amazing care of yours. I had my first dog when I was a baby, we grew up together as our birthdays were 10 days apart. I grew to love dogs and appreciate them for who they are-- amazing and intelligent creatures. I always ask myself how humans got so lucky. Unconditional love and support as long as we treat them right, what more can we ask for. I recently rescued my dog Zelda over two years ago and raising her has been such an incredible experience. Dogs are my passion and I can't wait to meet yours! I currently do have a full time job but I would love to spend my free time caring for your fur babies! Always looking to meet new clients! I can take them on a neighborhood walk, to the local park, wherever they prefer! If they want to stay home for a visit, we can play with toys and try to learn some new tricks!

About: I have grown up with my dog since fourth grade. I did the potty training, picking the poop, walks and more. As a college student, I would be homesick primarily because I miss my dog. I will cherish your pet with as much love as I have. I will find so much joy in watching your pet. I am currently on summer break therefore have several free time to spend with your pup. I will devote time and energy to give your dog love! I am available to drive to your home so your pet feels more safe. I will provide your pet with love by walking him/her, feeding and giving all the belly rubs the dog desires.

About: As being a previous dog owner, I not only understand the importance of loving and caring for my little one but can provide the same love and care for yours. Though mine passed away November 2020, going to dog beach fills me with memories and joy of what I once had. I would take your little one out to frequent bathroom breaks, cuddle, play and spend time together, feeding them and making them comfortable in whatever environment we’re in. I work in the dental field. I do have a lot of flexibility with my schedule since I make my own schedule and I am able to do this on the side. Whatever you require, I can provide. I believe in building trust and being that safe place for them while you're away. I believe pets make us better people and it makes us to love in a way that’s unconditional. From being loving, gentle and being sensitive to their needs and caring for them, it doesn’t take much to make them happy. Taking them on walks, enjoying the sun, playing with them and giving them attention, providing frequent bathroom breaks, making sure they’re fed, there’s water in their bowl and ensuring a stress free environment is what I can provide.

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!

About: I'm a dedicated dog lover who has had a dog since I was 10. There is nothing better than a happy dog, and I know I can ensure that with a check in or a walk. Dogs have just a few people in their lives, and you're their everything. They don't deserve to stare at the door or gate for hours on end waiting for you to come home. They need a little distraction, and some excitement in their day and that's where I come in. I have experience handling all types of dogs, and I have no problem containing their excitement when they get a little too worked up. I want the dogs to be happy and healthy and always hate when I have to leave them for an extended period of time. So, for the sake of your dog and your busy schedule, sign up with me and we can keep your pup happy! I work from home primarily so I'm flexible and happy to help throughout the day. I can make my own hours and accommodate to you and your pets needs. Honest, respectful and considerate of your sacred space that you call home. I will treat your home better than I treat mine and love to make the pets happy and comfortable in their own environment.

About: I have taken care of animals since I was basically an infant. I have grown up always having a couple of dogs, different breeds along the way. I love to play, cuddle, walk, anything your pet will want to do, I will also want to do. I live away from my family home now and travel due to work, leaving me deprived of my human/pet interaction. I would love to make your pet feel as comfortable as I can when you are not able to be around. If you pick me you can be sure your pet will be in great, cozy hands. I have also grown up pet sitting and housesitting for my neighbors back in my hometown. I am currently working full time but can work remote any time which allows a lot of flexibility when it comes to caring for pets. I am able to take walk breaks, pee breaks, play breaks, you name it haha. I love to be active so I would love to bring your pet along with me. I finish work earlier than the normal 9-5 which allows more time after to either take a trip to the dog park or continue playing or cuddling. When I watch your pet in your home I will always ensure to have the home in a safe setting. Ensuring that the windows/doors are shut and making your pet feel comfortable and not nervous. I will follow the instructions you give to care for your pet. I will make sure to provide updates frequently and communicate thoroughly.

“Jessica was awesome with Louie!! We just moved to Costa Mesa and he’s been a little hesitant and anxious since the move, and Jessica was super patient with him. She was also super accommodating since he’s sort of a high maintenance husky! We’ll definitely be rehiring Jessica!”


About: I’ve been taking care of dogs of all kinds since I was 8 years old when my brother and I started our neighborhood dog walking business. Over the years, friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, dog-sit, and take their pups on hikes. I have experience with everything from energetic puppies to senior dogs needing a little extra TLC. My passion for animals, attention to detail, and ability to adapt to each dog's unique personality are what set me apart. I'm currently in between jobs after working in both real estate and logistics, so I have plenty of time to play with your pups! I'm available weekdays until 4pm or upon special request to accommodate your schedule. There's a convenient dog grass patch just outside, the scenic Back Bay on one side, the beach on the other, and a park with a big lawn just 50 yards away. Whether we're relaxing indoors or heading out for walks, your dog will be in a safe, fun environment tailored to their needs and comfort.

I retired from American Airlines. I worked as a Gate Agent and then on the Ramp. I also retired as a Hair Designer. I decided to fill my time doing something I'm passionate about.

“I cannot recommend Brett highly enough! He was absolutely wonderful with my dog. From the moment he arrived, it was clear he had a natural connection with dogs, my dog loved him. He was punctual, friendly, and incredibly attentive to my dog’s needs, making sure she got plenty of exercise, attention, and care during their walk. I was at ease the moment I met him. It’s not easy to find someone you can trust with your furry family member, but Brett exceeded every expectation. I cannot recommend him highly enough. I’ll definitely be reaching out to them again. Five stars all the way!”


Kelsey R.

Sandy S.
“Sandy was a great caregiver for our two dogs. They instantly had a quick connection with her and even though one of my dogs is a Chihuahua (hates almost all strangers), both dogs quickly bonded with her as a new friendly acquaintance. She provided us the ability to go on several trips when our dogs couldn't conveniently go with us and made us more comfortable with having someone, we trust to care for our fur babies while away vs. a strange environment like a kennel away from home. I have recommended her to many others and confidently know she'll take care of anyone's pets like her own!”

“Sam has watched my dogs for many years. She not only is a great care giver to animals she is an all around great human. My dogs love her and I never have to worry about them when she has them.”

Had an appt set up with another dog walker who no call/no show on the day of so I reached out to Cassidy who responded within minutes and was able to come walk Kira. Cassidy has been amazing with my husky Kira and American bully pup Reinhardt. From day one she’s been kind, reliable, and clearly has a natural way with dogs. It’s such a relief knowing my pups are in good hands.

Carl has been helping me with Bodhi for years, and he’s the absolute best. Bodhi doesn’t take to everyone, and Carl has been so patient and loving with him.
