About: I’m a full-time work-from-home dog mom to my 2.5-year-old golden retriever, Goose, who loves meeting new friends. I can offer your pet constant companionship, regular potty breaks, and walks throughout the day. I’ve raised Goose since he was 12 weeks old, have over 5 years of pet-sitting experience, and grew up with cats. I can administer medications, follow detailed care instructions, and make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and part of the family from the moment they arrive. Pet care is naturally woven into my everyday life—I already spend my days walking, playing with, and caring for Goose. Working from home gives me the flexibility to provide frequent potty breaks, mid-day walks, and plenty of playtime. Whether it’s a quick cuddle, a mental-stimulating game, or an extra walk to burn energy, I can easily adjust my day to meet each pet’s needs. In my home, pets are treated like family. Dogs have access to a secure balcony for fresh air and are allowed on the bed for snuggles, but not on other furniture. We follow a no human-food policy to keep pets safe. I stick closely to your feeding, exercise, and medication schedule, ensuring your dog feels comfortable and confident in their surroundings. Goose is extremely friendly with other dogs and fascinated (but gentle) with cats; if needed, I can separate spaces to keep everyone relaxed.

About: After 5 years working as an agency recruiter, I’ve decided to take a break and focus on something I truly love — caring for dogs! I’ve always had a passion for animals, and now I’m turning that into something meaningful. I’ve been caring for dogs my whole life. I grew up with a Shih Tzu named Barkley, who I loved and cared for over 10 years. Over the past five years, I’ve cared for a variety of dogs, including a Sheepadoodle, Dachshund, Pit Bull, French Bulldog, Great Dane, and a Mini Bernedoodle. I’ve helped friends and family with caring for their dogs over the past 5 years. They have always been a big part of my life, and I’m super excited to meet yours! 😊 I'm available Monday to Friday 8:00am to 5:00pm. I’m moving from San Diego to Newport Beach and will be available to start working on Tuesday, September 2nd. Looking forward to meeting you and your pet! I care for pets as if they were my own. In a client’s home, I make sure to follow any instructions closely — including feeding schedules, walk routines, crate time, and their favorite toys.

“Lilly was great! She watched our cavapoo while we were at Disneyland for the day on vacation. She made the extra effort to come get our hotel key and parking pass the day before, which was much appreciated! I would definitely recommend her!”

“Rachel is fantastic and honestly I don’t think I could’ve chosen better! She took care really well of my pet Athena and I’m pretty sure my cat will miss her, she also went out of her way to help me when I had a few problems that required some assistance at home and I couldn’t be more grateful for her patience. Highly recommend Rachel to anyone, will be my go to pet sitter if I ever need the service again!”

About: I have taken care of friends' and familys' dogs for over 10 years, and have always had a dog of my own. I’m comfortable with dogs of all ages and energy levels - from playful puppies who need structure and stimulation to senior dogs who need a gentle, attentive touch. I have trained my own dog to sit, stay, walk off leash, shake, and even to smile! I’ve cared for dogs with a range of needs, including medication administration, anxiety, and leash reactivity. I’m also an avid runner and love including high-energy dogs in my workouts (with your permission, of course!). Whether your pet needs active playtime or a calm, cozy environment, I adjust my approach to fit their unique needs. I prioritize communication, consistency, and creating a stress-free experience, both for you and your pet :) I’m a graduate student with a flexible schedule, which means I can easily adjust to meet your pet’s needs! I’m also a runner and love bringing high-energy pups along for safe, fun runs. Whether your pet prefers morning walks, evening strolls, or anything in between, I’m happy to make it work. Just let me know what your pet loves, and I’ll be there! Whether your pet is staying with me or I’m caring for them in your home, I do everything I can to make them feel safe, loved, and at ease. I’ll follow their usual routine and am happy to accommodate any special needs, like anxiety, senior care, or training reinforcement. If they’re staying with me, they’ll get a true home away from home. My own dog is a rescue, and I’ve done everything to make him feel secure, loved, and supported, and I’ll treat your pup the same way. He’s super friendly and ranges from total couch potato to full-on zoomies. He also loves welcoming new buddies into our home. With my flexible grad school schedule, your dog will get plenty of attention, activity, and a front-row seat to whatever show I’m currently binging - whatever they need most! When I’m in your home, I’ll treat your space and routines with care and respect. You’ll get regular updates and cute pics so you can relax knowing your pet’s in great hands!

About: Hello! My name is Genevieve and I’m a 24 year old medical assistant and animal shelter volunteer! 🐕 Long walks, quick potty breaks, or a mix—whatever fits your pup best 🎾 Regular play sessions—fetch, tug, or enrichment to burn energy and have fun 🛏️ Comfortable with crate training and sticking to your pet’s routine 🍲 Confident with fresh/raw feeding, supplements, and detailed meal prep 💊 Able to administer oral/topical meds, including for seniors 🐶 Experienced with reactive, energetic, and strong-pulling dogs 🧸 Patient with shy, anxious, or rescue pups needing extra TLC 🛁 Light grooming like brushing, ear cleaning, or wiping paws after walks 🐾 Puppy care: potty training, socializing, basic leash manners 🐕‍🦺 Senior dog care: gentle walks, joint support, and extra comfort 💪 Comfortable walking and handling large dogs (70+ lbs) 📷 I send regular photo/video updates to keep you in the loop 🧹 I keep things clean—litter, bowls, food areas, and messes 🧠 Can reinforce basic commands like sit, stay, and come 🏡 Happy to water plants, bring in mail, and respect your space 📅 Flexible schedule for daytime care and drop-ins 💻 I study when I sit—just need Wi-Fi and a cozy spot! 🐾 Volunteer at a shelter—experienced with all sizes, breeds, and temperaments MY EXPERIENCE WITH DOGS: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and officially started caring for my own in 2019. I have two corgis—Jarvis and Friday—who’ve taught me a lot about handling different personalities and needs. Jarvis is high-energy and always ready to go, so we do long walks, fetch, and tons of play until he’s finally ready for a nap (then repeat!). Friday is more low-key—she plays briefly but loves to cuddle all day, and I’m happy to give her both. She’s also dog- and people-reactive and has a nose for getting into trouble (counter-surfing, poop-eating—you name it), so I’m extra alert and used to staying ahead of chaos. I’ve also volunteered at a dog shelter for over a year, where I’ve walked and cared for dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments—from tiny seniors to 70+ lb dogs full of pent-up energy. I’ve learned how to handle even the most intense or challenging pups with patience, structure, and care. Friends and family often rely on me to care for their pets because they know I’m responsible, observant, and truly love what I do. TL;DR : 🧑‍💼 Part-time work (2 days/week) 📚 Studying for the MCAT during my free time 🕘 Mornings and evenings usually available 🏡 Open for drop-ins and house sitting 😴 House sitting: I sleep at home but return daily 🪑 Wi-Fi + chair/table or couch/TV = I’m all set! 📅 Flexible on weekends and most weekdays I work part-time and study for the MCAT when I’m not working, so I have a flexible schedule for both drop-ins and house sitting. I don’t sleep over for house sitting, but I’ll reliably be there every morning and evening—and can hang out during the day if you’ve got Wi-Fi and a cozy spot to study. Your pets will get plenty of love, care, and company! TL;DR: 🐾 I stick closely to your pet’s routine to keep them happy and relaxed 🐶 Experienced with reactive dogs and keeping curious pups out of trouble 🚶‍♀️ Daily walks, potty breaks, and plenty of playtime 🥘 Comfortable with special diets, fresh food, and detailed feeding routines 🏠 I’ll keep your home clean, secure, and respected ❤️ Your pet will be safe, loved, and cared for like my own Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I follow your instructions carefully to maintain their routine and reduce stress while you're away. I’m very attentive—whether it’s managing reactivity on walks or keeping curious pets out of mischief. At home, my dogs follow a consistent schedule with morning and evening walks, hourly backyard potty breaks, and fetch every 1–2 hours. If your home doesn’t have a yard, I’m happy to provide more short walks as needed. I also feed my dogs fresh food with multiple supplements, so I’m confident handling complex feeding routines or special diets. You can count on me to treat your pet like family and keep your home tidy, secure, and respected while you’re gone.

“Nichole was AMAZING!! She communicated so well with me and took care of my fur baby as if he were her own. I would hire her again in a heartbeat”

Megan L.

“I chose Caroline to return to my home because she took exceptional care of my cats! She has a loving and joyful approach to her time with them, and I didn’t have to worry at all about them while I was away because they have so much fun with her. She follows instructions for their care and also adds some enrichment that I didn’t even think of. Thank you!”

About: I’ve been around dogs since early childhood — they’ve always been part of my family. My own dog lived with me for 16 years, and throughout my life I’ve cared for pets with love, patience, and attention to their needs. I’m calm, responsible, and truly love spending time with animals. I recently moved from Ukraine and now live in Irvine. I would be happy to care for your furry friend as if they were my own. I currently have a flexible schedule and plenty of free time throughout the day — mornings, afternoons, and evenings. Pet care easily fits into my daily routine, and I always make sure each dog gets individual attention and love. I'm available most days, including weekends. Safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always keep a close eye on the animals and make sure they feel calm, safe, and well cared for. I follow the owner's instructions, respect each pet's habits, and maintain open communication. From my own experience, I know that every animal has its own personality, so I act gently, with attention and care. My own dog lived to be 16 years old. In her final months, she lost the ability to walk, and I cared for her daily with patience and love. This experience taught me how to support senior dogs and those with special needs. I speak Ukrainian and Russian, and I use a translator to communicate in English.

“Abbie is the best! Our corgi Peach loves her and Abbie always does a great job keeping us updated. Thank you, we will continue to book with Abbie in the future ☺️🙌🏼”

About: I have had pets for my entire life (and that's a long time). I have been fostering puppies/dogs and kittens/cats for the last several years. I am now a newly empty nest Mom with a very quiet house. In all my years having family pets, like you are now, I always found a private sitter to care for my animals while I was away. I believe pets are not meant to be boarded if it can be avoided. I am a newly empty nest, stay at home Mom with lots of time, energy and space to care for puppies/dogs and kittens/cats. We have a large, two story home with a fully fenced back yard and side pet door that leads to a fully enclosed run. While in my care your pet(s) will be cared for with love, kindness and consistency from your home to ours. A seamless "vacation" at home.

About: I have many years of experience with all breeds and ages including Senior dogs and puppies and also with administering medications and post surgical care I am a full time pet sitter and dog walker. I have availability for daily afternoon dog walks and for overnight stays with your pets My priority at each client’s home is the safety and comfort of your pet, I keep them on their daily feeding, walking and sleeping routine

About: Hey there- I'm Adam. I've had the absolute pleasure of living with and taking care of pets for the last several years in LA and OC. Most recently, my experience has included dog sitting an adorable 80lb Instagram celebrity pooch (ask me about it!) during his owner's vacations abroad. What sets me apart is my attention to the highest quality care and ensuring owners feel at ease while away from their pets. I do this through proactive communication, paying close attention to detail and being somebody you can rely on. My job is to not only make your pet feel comfortable, but also their owner! I'd love to get the chance to help you however I can. I work a full-time day job as a Senior Marketing Manager in Irvine from 9am-6pm. My open windows during weekdays generally range from 7-8:30am, 12:00-1:00pm or 7:00-9:00pm. My schedule is more flexible on the weekends when I'm in town. I bring a warm, fun and friendly attitude around pets that I take care of. At the same time, knowing that every pet has their own unique personality, I make sure to respect their needs and moods- whether they're introverted and like to keep to themselves, more playful/ energetic or just need some pets and cuddles! I'm also comfortable with individual needs (e.g. particular diets, medications needed, types of physical activity needed, etc.). All I ask is for full transparency by the owner of any needs I should be aware of to make sure your pet is given the best care possible :)

About: I am a carrying and responsible dog walker who enjoys walks in Newport Ridge area. I walk my dog (Golden Retriever Bob 1,5 years old) and dogs from the neighborhood to the dog park or in the nice, green areas of Newport Coast. I would be happy to walk your dog during the day with my dog so they can play together or only your dog. I am available during the day from 9am until 2pm and from 4pm. I can also be available for weekend walks depending on the arrangement. There is a fenced dog park close to where I live and plenty of green areas and parks where your dog can get enough exercise. Every day around 5pm a group of dog owners is coming to the park to let the dogs run around and play so if you would like to socialize your dog so it would be a great opportunity.
