House Sitting Newport Beach

About: I have three rescued pets at home: an 8-year-old (reactive) lab mix, a super friendly 8-year-old cat, and a shy 4-year-old cat. This gives me a pretty good idea of how to handle different pet personalities! My pup needs some extra care and attention, which has taught me how to manage reactive behaviors and create safe spaces by reinforcing routines. I also know how to help shy pets feel comfortable and secure. What makes me stand out is my ability to cater to each pet’s unique needs, whether it’s using positive reinforcement for training or just providing a cozy, loving environment. I’m all about making sure your pets feel happy and relaxed while you’re away! I have plenty of time and flexibility to care for your pets! I have plenty of availability throughout the day for drop-ins or walks; just let me know what you need. When it comes to caring for pets, my top priorities are safety, trust, and keeping a calm environment. I stick to their routines (like feeding and walking schedules) and use their favorite toys to help them feel comfortable. Safety is super important, so I’m dedicated to creating a secure space for your pets. I really believe in getting to know each pet and understanding their unique needs and behaviors, which helps me anticipate any situations that might come up. Building trust is essential, so I take the time to make sure they feel relaxed and at ease with me. Overall, my goal is to provide loving and attentive care that keeps your pets happy while you’re away!

About: I love all to get all the details, any special scratches, snuggles, cuddles, rubs, hugs or nicknames Fido or Fifi prefers Please Let me Know. I want to provide the same comfort a beloved family member might. Obviously, no one can replace their real Mom or Dad, but I like to try! 4 Paws Up! I have experience administering medications, if necessary. Hopefully it's just walks, fun. snuggles, and maybe a treat or two. 😄 I have a flexible schedule at the moment. I look forward to helping your pets at the appropriate time to keep them healthy and happy. I'll read and reread any notes or instructions left for me, so I can care and keep you fur baby safe and sound. I'm great at keeping an eye on the house, locking up and hanging out with your pets for a good night's sleep. I don't drink and try to maintain a healthy lifestyle.

“Katya is wonderful. She was so attentive to my pups. One of my dogs has possible kidney disease and needs to go out to pee often. Katya was so patient and attentive in taking care of him. She left my house in great shape - and she kept me filled in with photos and texts all the time. Superb!”

“Otis had a great time with Melissa! She was punctual, friendly, and had excellent communication both before and during her stay. She even sent photo updates throughout the day, which I really appreciated. Otis was instantly comfortable with her - always a great sign as a pet parent. Since this was my first time using Rover, we did a video call beforehand, and I really appreciated how thorough she was in asking about Otis’s needs, behavior, favorite toys, and what to watch for while he’s recovering from an eye injury to ensure he was doing well.”

“Krystal is AHMAZING! I came home and the house was so clean. My dog never lets sitters walk her but she let Krystal walk her multiple times per day which is WILD in the best way! Krystal is a miracle worker and I'm so thankful she came to sit for us <3”

Sam M.

“Vi is awesome! She is very sweet with our very old kitty and our two pups. We were on a trip when our kitty got sick and Vi managed the situation perfectly. She treated him with loving care until we returned home (he’s okay). She is thorough and pays attention to detail. The best part about her is that our pets love her.”

“Michelle was great! She arrived at our hotel at our arranged time. She is super friendly and was great with Maggie. She even took her for a nice walk, with permission of course. I would definitely book with Michelle again anytime we visit the city!!!”

“Amazing overnight dogsitter! Our dog normally is a really picky eater, but Emma managed this obstacle without any issues. She also administered her daily medication with no issues. We’ll continue to book her!”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 10 years, and I currently own and have raised my Border Collie, Luna, since she was 6 weeks old. She’s now 5 years old, fully off-leash trained, highly socialized, and responsive—something that takes a high level of consistency, awareness, and understanding of dog behavior. Because Border Collies are one of the most intelligent and demanding breeds, that experience has shaped how I work with all dogs. I focus on structure, exercise, and calm, confident handling so dogs feel secure and balanced. I’m experienced with dogs of all sizes, energy levels, and temperaments—from high-performance working breeds to older dogs that need a slower pace. I’m also comfortable reinforcing training, managing behavior, and adapting to each dog’s unique needs. My goal is to provide more than just supervision—I offer intentional, high-quality care so your dog stays happy, exercised, and mentally engaged My schedule is very flexible because I work as an artist, author, and entrepreneur, which allows me to structure my days around the dogs I’m caring for. This means your dog won’t be left alone for long periods and will get consistent attention, walks, and engagement throughout the day. I’m available for boarding, walks, and drop-ins, including weekends. I create a calm, structured, and attentive environment where dogs can relax and feel at home. I’m highly aware of behavior, energy levels, and surroundings—especially on walks or in new environments. With my background raising and training a high-energy, intelligent breed, I’m confident managing different personalities and ensuring each dog gets the right balance of activity, boundaries, and rest. I follow your dog’s routine closely and provide regular updates so you always feel connected and confident while you’re away.

About: Hello! My name is Thomas and I'm a long time dog owner. Having grown up with dogs, I'm happy to take care of yours as needed. Having graduated from USC two years ago, I am fortunate enough to be in a position where I can work remotely. Throughout the day I often take walks around the peninsula/seashore to get a break from work. I work remotely so I often find myself walking outside to get fresh air as needed. Let me know how I can fit into your schedule! My family has owned a couple different dogs in my lifetime! Happy to help out as needed / provide specific care. I am no stranger to working with dogs who require a certain routine / diet.

“We met Kelsy at the beginning of the summer and she took such amazing care of our dog this summer while we traveled. Even our fellow neighbor dog owners met and loved her on their walks. She was great with Thor always in communication with us with pictures and updates.”

“Suzanne was extremely caring and gentle with my sensitive doodle Romeo. She brushed him as he sat next to her and he loved it. It looked like he had been to the salon when I got home! Thank you, Suzanne!”

“Garrett took great care of my dogs while I was on a day trip with my family. He was available at short notice and communicated during the day and sent lots of pics of the dogs out in walks and relaxing. My elderly dog wally is on heart medication and he ensured he received the meds with dinner along with feeding my other dogs.”

“Annabel was fantastic. It was our first time leaving Blu but she made it so easy for us. Blu loved her. She kept us updated on activities and kept him occupied the whole time. He loved her. I would and will use her services again. A+”

About: I bring nearly 10 years of experience caring for homes and pets, from tiny Chihuahuas to gentle Bernese Mountain Dogs. I’m skilled in puppy training, senior pet care, and understanding each animal’s unique needs. As a Mindset & Mental Health coach, I naturally bring patience, calm, and strong intuition, ensuring pets feel safe and loved. Known for my reliability, warmth, and attention to detail, I give homeowners complete peace of mind while they’re away. I work fully remote as a Mindset & Mental Health coach, which gives me a flexible daily and weekly routine. This allows me to dedicate plenty of focused time to your pets—feeding, walking, playtime, and companionship—while also keeping your home tidy and well cared for. My remote work schedule ensures I’m consistently present, attentive, and available to respond to any needs as they arise. I prioritize creating a safe, calm, and loving environment for every pet I care for. I prefer to sit at clients’ homes, keeping pets in the comfort of their familiar surroundings and routines. I care for them just as if they were my own—providing companionship, attention, and affection while ensuring their space is clean, secure, and stress-free. My goal is for both pets and homeowners to feel completely at ease while I’m caring for them.

About: We both grew up with dogs and have always loved having them around. We’re an active couple who genuinely enjoys walking and taking care of pups—we treat every dog like they’re part of the family. We don’t have one of our own just yet, but we definitely plan to once we’ve got the right space. In the meantime, we love spending time with dogs of all ages, from high-energy puppies to mellow seniors. We’re experienced, caring, and always make sure each dog feels safe, loved, and well looked after. Pet care fits easily into our routine! I work fully remote from home, and Sam is a teacher with summers off. Our flexible schedules mean one or both of us is almost always available to give your pup the attention and care they deserve. Whether it’s daily walks, drop-ins, or overnight stays, we’re reliable and happy to accommodate your pet’s needs. Whether we’re in your home or ours, your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are our top priorities. We follow all your care instructions closely and make sure they feel secure and loved. During walks or sitting, we stay attentive, keep pets on leash in safe, familiar areas, and always meet them at their energy and comfort level. Building trust with your pet—and with you—is at the core of how we care for every animal.
