Pet Sitting & Drop Ins in Northwood, Irvine

“Cie is warm and caring to both pets and people. It's easy to see how much she loves animals and she has a great demeanor when interacting with them. While she has not directly cared for my dog, she has played a pivotal role in his life. My dog had a history of bad temperament when meeting dogs "nose to nose" on walks so I had been avoiding other dogs and dog owners for fear of an altercation. One day Cie introduced herself to me from a distance as she could tell I was nervous for our dogs to get too close. She has two very sweet and friendly dogs herself and she approached the situation with such finesse that really made me trust her character and her judgement. We continued to introduce our dogs from a distance over time until I gained more confidence in how my dog would handle meeting "nose to nose". Now our dogs go on frequent walks together and my pup is so happy to have friends he can play with. Cie was so patient with me/my dog and she really respected how I felt about the situation and I really can't thank her enough.”

“Raphael has always done such a good job caring for my pets. His intuitive nature makes it so that all the pet’s needs are met. Animals have subtle ways of communicating and it seems like Raphael is very sensitive to their cues. He is also great at giving them love and affection.”

“My little boy Yang had so much fun time playing and staying with Jigo, Yilin is really responsive during the boardings, keeps sending me updates of my little boy. She is the most responsible and patient carer that we’ve visited. Would definitely come back.”

About: I’ve had pets for my entire life. My family believes in saving the strays from the streets, so it was my parents who taught me to show kindness to every animal I meet and take great care of those we adopted. In my case, it was several dogs and cats of various kinds, including older dogs and a tiny one week old kitten whom I nursed to health and adulthood. I’m currently studying and freelancing from home and actively searching for a part-time job. My days are usually free since I’m in control of my study and work routine, so I’d love to take care of your little friends at any time on any day of the week! I always prioritize the pets’ safety, comfort, and routine. I love directions and specifications, so I make sure to follow provided instructions closely, whether it’s feeding, administering medications, or adhering to a particular schedule for walks and playtime. I make sure to maintain a calm environment for the pet, giving them plenty of attention, affection, and mental stimulation. I also ensure the home remains clean and tidy, following all the owner’s guidelines to keep their pet’s routine as consistent as possible! I believe consistency is the key.

“Jessica was fantastic. She communicated well, arrived on time, and took good care of Piper! I will definitely book her again.”

About: My family has been raising cats and dogs since I was 7 years old. So far, we have raised 4 dogs. I love dogs very much. They are so cute. I am usually at home. I go to the gym for an hour each time, and the rest of the time I am basically at home. I think I have a lot of time to take care of the dog. I have a fenced garden and I believe they will be safe in it. I also like to drink coffee in the sun in the garden, and I can play with them.

“LaToya is great!”

“Communicative and friendly! I knew my pets were well taken care of and in good hands while I was away!”

About: I've had a love for animals, of all kinds, since I can remember. Growing up with dogs of my own, they were some of my childhood best friends. I always jumped at the chance to pet sit for friends and family in my neighborhood. I love the opportunities I get working around the Irvine/Orange County area with the doggos in my community! I recently finished my doctorate degree and am a free-lance writer so I have great flexibility and availability with my schedule in general. I am usually able to accommodate for last minute scheduling. I'm also flexible with scheduling changes that may occur, with availability for most weekends. I'm a great listener, and I pay extra attention to safety points that you want to ensure I am aware of. I care that your pets feel safe at all times, and I greatly emphasize the importance of open communication with my clients, should something arise.

“I just want to give a huge shoutout to Lisa for all the amazing help she’s been for me and my dog, Angel. Since I found her on Rover, she’s been super reliable and has taken such great care of Angel this week. Lisa always sends me updates and cute pictures of Angel, which really helps me feel better while I’m at work. It’s so nice to know that my pup is being looked after in the middle of the day. I can’t thank Lisa enough for everything she’s done. If you need a trustworthy and caring dog sitter, I highly recommend her! Thank you, Lisa, for being there for us!”

About: I used to work at an animal Hospital and have attended formal training on pet care as well as hands-on experience. Plus, I’ve been a pet lover all my life! I work from home full-time so I have constant presence around the pets I babysit. My 3yo female (spayed) Calico stays with me and loves having access to me all day, and if you have a social pet, then I’m here for them too! I know which stuff are bad for pets so you’re guaranteed a safe stay with us. I am home all day so there will be constant care and guidance

“Briana and her partner were wonderful!! From the initial meet and greet, I knew I was leaving my baby in great hands. Very responsive, provided detailed updates, and we came home to a very happy puppy! Would highly recommend to anyone!!”

“Holly is the most responsible respectful person I know. She loves dogs and I know she will do a great job taking care of and walking dogs! She used to have two dogs herself and I know she will give the same love and care into many others!”

“Katelin did the most amazing job taking care of my cats. She was available last minute, which I greatly appreciated, and she was a great communicator. She also sent fun photos and videos! I’d book her again in a heart beat.”

“Nicole and Aaron are awesome! They are very communicative, comforting, and responsive. They made Tory feel right at home, and Tory even started whining when we came to pick him up (this is a first!). Nicole and Aaron are the perfect sitters, and I will definitely use them in the near future - I cannot recommend their expertise and service more!”

“We’ve been using Reinaldo as our pet sitter for two years now, and I can confidently say he is the absolute best. Reinaldo is incredibly attentive to our three fur babies—our dog Mochi and our cats Cookie and Fafa. From the moment we met him, it was clear that he has a genuine love for animals, and our pets adore him just as much as we do. Reinaldo is not only lovable but also exceptionally responsible. He follows every instruction to the letter, which is so reassuring when leaving our pets in his care. Whether it’s keeping Cookie comfortable in the master bedroom at night or ensuring Mochi gets enough attention and playtime, he’s on top of every detail. He’s also wonderfully responsive and always on time, which makes coordinating with him stress-free. We never have to worry when Reinaldo is watching over our fur babies because we know they’re in the most loving, capable hands. What truly sets Reinaldo apart is the bond he has built with our pets. It’s rare to find someone who not only takes care of your pets but also becomes part of their little world. I honestly can’t imagine trusting anyone else. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pets like family, Reinaldo is the one. He is a true gem, and we feel so lucky to have found him!”

“Jessica took care of my dog for a day and she was amazing sent a lot of updates and pictures and videos through out the day. She walk my dog every 2 hours has requested. My did did not want to leave her house she had so much fun with her dogs. Slept the whole way home in the car 😊”

“I felt very reassured thanks to the detailed updates, both about the schedule and how my pet was doing. It's surprising how many people can't even handle these basic things, so I really appreciated the care and professionalism. I'll definitely ask you to pet sit again!”

“They are a responsible pet sitter as they are a fellow pet owner and understand the needs and care for your fur baby. Bonus: sending pictures of fur babies and updates :3”

About: As a kid I always had a strong connection with animals, In my apartment complex theres a squirrel I tend to meet and they always come close enough to where I could touch. I also do alot of research on a variety on animals watching animal facts, going down a rabbit hole, learning things about bloat, infection, fruits/herbs to not have around and certain environmental factors that can affect the animals negatively and positively. I can help comfort your animal emotionally when needed. Currently I am working on Creating my business, but have not started selling yet, I am free all day and if anything comes up i will post updates. How I care for my pets is with plenty of love, I caress them, hug them, play with them and make them eat healthy, and sometimes they like fruit which is great for organ function and antioxidants.
