House Sitting in North Tustin

About: Hello! I’m a lifelong dog lover. The corgi you see in my photo is my beloved baby of nearly 14 years, Namie. She went to woof planet this year, and I’m not ready for a new dog anytime soon. Recently, a friend asked if I could pet-sit, and I realized how therapeutic it felt for me. It also made me happy knowing they trusted me with their fur babies, especially since I have years of experience caring for my own. Before Namie came into my life, I was also a dog walker, but later transitioned into office work. Truthfully, I’ve always felt deeply connected to animals since I was a kid. I will treat your fur baby with the same level of care and attention, because I truly understand how much they mean to you. They are family, and they deserve the best. I’m currently a psychology student and am usually at school in the mornings to early afternoons, Monday through Thursday (depending on the quarter). I am fully available during the weekends. My priority has always been to return home as soon as possible to care for my dog; making sure she could go out, feel safe, and stay relaxed. I will give your fur baby that same level of care, attention, and love. When caring for your pet in your home, I understand that every fur baby needs time to feel comfortable with someone new. I always approach slowly and calmly, allowing them to get to know me at their own pace. I may use treats or their favorite toy to help build trust, but I also respect their space and wait for them to approach me when they’re ready. Once they feel comfortable, we can play, go for a walk around the neighborhood based on your preference, or simply relax together. I understand that every dog is different, some are more active, while others prefer cuddling and quiet time. In my dog’s later years, she preferred staying home, so I’m also very comfortable providing calm companionship, whether that’s relaxing together, watching TV, or engaging in gentle play like hide and seek. My goal is always to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for.

About: Dogs and cats have always been part of my life. I'm the go-to sitter for friends and family, and I genuinely love it. When I'm with your pet, they get real attention: walks, playtime, and someone who's present with them the whole time. I pay close attention to the animals in my care. On one stay, I noticed a dog had an injury the day after his owners left. I kept them informed and confident throughout the whole recovery, and by the time they got home, he was almost fully healed and thriving. You'll get regular updates and photos while you're gone so you can actually enjoy your trip. Your pet is family. I treat them that way. I work remotely, so I'm around throughout the day, no long stretches where your pet is alone. I can let them out anytime, squeeze in a walk or play session between calls, and actually be present in a way a 9-5 sitter can't. Weekends, I'm completely free and fully focused on them. I do house sitting out of your home, which means your pet stays in their own environment, their own routine, and their own space, no adjustment period, no stress. I travel light and show up with everything I need, so your home stays exactly as you left it. Your pet gets my full attention for the entire stay. I'm a homebody when I'm on a sit, I'm not rushing out or leaving them for long stretches. Your pet stays comfortable, calm, and well-loved the whole time you're away.

About: I grew up surrounded by animals, so caring for pets has always come easily to me. As a dog groomer, I’m experienced in handling dogs of all sizes with patience and care. I’m a true animal lover who treats every pet with love. I enjoy taking dogs on calm, enjoyable walks in nature to keep them happy and active. You can trust that your pet will be safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I am currently working part time. So I have a lot of free time to play and cuddle with your pet so they don’t feel lonely. I am always ready to cuddle or play if they want or need! I can adjust to their comfort and unique personalities with patience and love.

“Ana was absolutely incredible!!! I truly cannot recommend her enough. From the moment she started watching our dog, Pixie Dixie, we knew she genuinely cared for her like family. Her communication was outstanding the entire stay. She sent constant updates, adorable photos, and thoughtful messages that gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Every update showed how loved and comfortable Pixie was. Ana went above and beyond with Pixie with playing with her constantly, introducing new games, cuddling with her on the couch, and even sleeping beside her because Pixie wanted to be close to her. Seeing how attached Pixie became says everything about the kind of person Ana is. She also took phenomenal care of our home. Everything was spotless, organized, and exactly as we left it. By the end of the stay, Ana no longer felt like “just” a Rover sitter — she felt like family. We trust her completely and would recommend her to anyone looking for someone caring, responsible, communicative, and truly wonderful with animals. Pixie already misses her, and so do we!”

“Robert did great looking after Sunny, our 3-yr-old papillon mix, while my wife and I had a date night. He did a meet-and-greet the night before to get Sunny familiar with this new guy that’d be in the house with her. Top-notch experience!”

About: I’ve loved caring for dogs for as long as I can remember. Growing up, I regularly walked my family’s dogs and helped neighbors with theirs as well. Most recently, I’ve been a consistent dog sitter for the past six months, staying in a client’s home and caring for their dog while they’re away. I’m reliable, responsible, and adaptable, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away As a college student on summer break, I have a very flexible schedule and am available for pet care throughout the week and on weekends. I can accommodate a variety of schedules and am happy to provide care at times that work best for you and your pet. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to keep them on their normal routine so they feel comfortable and secure. I make sure they are fed on schedule, get plenty of exercise, playtime, attention, and bathroom breaks, and always have fresh water available. I also keep owners updated with photos and messages so they can feel confident their pet is happy and well cared for while they’re away. My goal is to treat every pet like they’re my own and provide a safe, loving environment.

“So lucky to have found Kathy through Rover, she was an exceptional sitter for our two dogs. Our boys are leash reactive so we are always a little anxious to leave them under just anyone’s care, but with Kathy we’ve never felt more at ease. Great communicator and responsive, would definitely book her again if we can!”

“Alicia was amazing - keeping us updated about our precious angel Branston. I had asked if she could take the sheets off her bed and she remade it with clean sheets. We had such peace of mind. This is our first time having Alicia and it won’t be the last. We were blessed to find her. Thank you Alicia”

“Olivia did a great job with my pups. I can definitely recommend her.”

“We hired Jasmine to house/pet sit while we were out of town. She took excellent care of our dogs and cat. She is very reliable and attentive, providing consistent communication with photos and video updates. She even went above and beyond by sweeping our floors! Our dogs are very high energy and Jasmine provided them with more than enough playtime. She clearly loves animals! Our dogs were well cared for and happy they got to have her very cute dogs as playmates! I feel she is someone we can trust with our animals and we already hired her for our next vacation. Thank you so much, Jasmine!!”

About: Many of my friends have corgis, so I've spent plenty of time caring for these adorable, energetic little dogs and I've absolutely fallen in love with the breed! Whether your dog loves playtime, cuddles on the couch, neighborhood walks, or simply having someone nearby, I'm happy to tailor care to their personality and routine. I look forward to meeting you and your pup! I work full-time during the week, but I work from home on Fridays, which gives me extra flexibility for walks, check-ins, and quality time with your dog. I understand how important it is to know your pet is getting attention, exercise, and companionship while you're away. Most recently, I cared for a friend's dog and home for an entire month while they were away. During that time, I maintained the dog's normal routine, took them on daily walks, brought them to the dog park and the beach, and made sure they received plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship.

“I am so pleased with Lizbeth! This is our first visit with her and everything was better than expected. She was wonderful taking care of pavel and asked questions to be sure he was well cared for. That means alot to me as he is a disabled dog. She sent pictures and updates and even got him to walk on their first visit!!! I will definitely recommend her AND use her again. Thank you Lizbeth!!”

I keep a clean and organized space.

“Kaylee was so patient and amazing with my foster dog! She dealt with her reactivity very well and her communication was superb. Thanks so much for taking such good care of her!! Highly recommend Kaylee!!”

About: As a previous pet owner, I miss having a fur baby to tend to. I have decades of experience with dogs of varying breeds. My children are now college graduates and have no time commitments or obligations so house sitting suits my lifestyle perfectly. I only accept one family at a time so your pet/s will receive my undivided attention 24/7. As a full time homemaker, I have plenty of time to spend with the dogs. They are never left alone. I devote all of my time to them and I only board a couple of small dogs at a time so they receive very personalized care. I take the dog/s out for a walk or potty break every couple of hours, we may go to a nearby dog park that’s fenced in or go by the beach. I don’t mind cooking for the dog/s, beef or chicken and rice with vegetables is provided at times. Regarding safety- that’s always my top priority. When walking them; I always have them in a harness to keep them secure.

About: I’ve been a veterinary assistant going on 8 years now. I am comfortable caring for senior pets, administering medications, including injections and I don’t mind exotics. I am currently working so i will be able to work around schedules and my classes are online for now so I can definitely plan my classes around your pets’ schedule. In general, I believe all living beings deserve to be treated with love and respect. Therefore, I will make sure their bowls are clean, they have clean water, access to comfort and safety checks before I leave.

“Everything from meet and greet to booking was great with Christian. He kept up with fur baby photos and kept the house spotless for a smooth return from vacation. I will definitely be booking with him again 👌🏽🙂”

“Nate was an amazing dog sitter for our girls! He communicated throughout and sent lots of photos. They seemed really content when we came back. We will for sure ask Nate to watch our pups again in the future.”
