Pet Sitting Northwood

About: I understand family pets are your world, my family dogs Darla and Pandora are everything and I’m glad to meet your family too! I will give them the best care possible always. I would love to be more active while playing with animals! I’m currently self employed with a flexible schedule so I can drop in whenever! I can easily drop in and walk your beloved animals, just like I care for my own. I’m looking for local pets to give lots of love too!

About: I’ve been around dogs and caring for pets for most of my life, including having a dog of my own. I’ve also cared for dogs for friends, family, and others who have trusted me to walk, feed, play with, and look after their pets while they’re away. I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I make it a priority to follow each owner’s instructions closely. Whether it’s going for walks, keeping them company, playing, feeding, or simply making sure they’re comfortable and happy, I’ll treat your pet with the same care and attention I give my own. I have a flexible schedule, which gives me plenty of time to care for your pets! I’m available throughout the week for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting, and I’m happy to work around your pet’s normal routine. I’ll make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and company while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priority. I’ll follow your instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any routines your pet is used to. I’m very attentive when walking dogs and entering or leaving the home, and I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel comfortable knowing your pet is well cared for. I like to treat your dog just like how I would want someone to care for my dog.

About: Hi, I’m youhua I’m someone who puts patience and care into every moment I spend with pets. For the past five years, I’ve often helped my friends look after their dogs and cats, so I’m very familiar with their routines, habits, and body language — I can easily tell when they’re hungry, anxious, or just want some love and playtime. I always arrive on time for every service, make sure each walk is safe and enjoyable, provide fresh water and clean-ups, and send plenty of photo and video updates so you can feel at ease even when you’re away. I live in the Northwood community in Irvine, surrounded by several beautiful parks that are perfect for daily walks. I have a gentle personality and a calm energy that helps soothe nervous pets, and I’m happy to adjust my routine to fit your pet’s schedule. I look forward to becoming a trusted temporary family member for you and your beloved furry friend. 🐾 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.

“Jared was awesome in communication, friendliness, following instructions. Our 9 week year old puppy had a great time with Jared and he made it such an easy drop-in. Jared was also really good and familiar with puppy behaviors! Thank you Jared for the ease of mind!”

“We were SO glad we found Erica to watch our pets while we were away. During the meet and greet we knew she would be perfect - her calm, kind, and loving demeanor was perfect for our pets. She sent pictures and updates every day, and went above and beyond to make sure our home and everything in it was well taken care of. We will definitely book her again in the future, and would recommend her to anyone searching for a pet sitter.”

About: Dogs have been a part of my everyday life since I was born. When I was a kid, I would sleep in the dog beds with my pups, instead of my own bed. As I have gotten older, I am always the one asked to watch the dogs, take them out, and keep up with their routine while they are gone. I think any moment with spent with some furry friends, is a blessing. I have experience with very large dogs, dogs that aren't so excited about strangers, dogs that don't really love hanging out with other dogs, animals that need help with some medications, and kitty cats! I have also taken a few online pet safety classes to ensure I am able to give the best and most responsible care possible! Happy to share that information with clients. I am currently working a part time office job, but fear not! I have time to help you both out :) I am available in the morning before 9:00am and in the afternoon after 3:30pm At the moment, I am not able to board at my home! But I can come to you and take care of the dogs or the kit cats!

“Regi took wonderful care of my two cats and gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. It was clear they were happy, comfortable, and very well cared for. I also really appreciated how thoughtfully she looked after things around the house. Everything was clean, tidy, and exactly as I had left it when I returned.
