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.

About: What sets me apart is my hands-on experience with dogs of very different sizes, ages, and needs. I have three dogs of my own, including two small poodle-Lhasa Apso mixes and one large 100-pound dog, so I am very comfortable caring for both small and large breeds. I also have experience with senior care because one of my dogs is 14, which has taught me to be patient, gentle, and attentive to changes in comfort, energy, and routine. I understand that every dog is different, and I make sure to adjust my care to what helps each dog feel safe, relaxed, and loved. I am reliable, observant, and genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs, and I would treat every pet with the same care and attention I give my own. Pet care is already a natural part of my daily and weekly routine because I care for my own pets every day. I am used to feeding, walking, giving attention, cleaning up after pets, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable. Because caring for animals is already part of my life, adding pet sitting and dog walking fits in well with my routine. I enjoy being active and spending time with animals, so this feels like a meaningful and natural way to use my time while helping other pet owners. I focus on making pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while keeping their normal routine as consistent as possible. In a client’s home, I would follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, playtime, fresh water, litter box cleaning, and any other routines the pet is used to. I would also make sure pets get plenty of attention, affection, and supervision so they feel secure while their owner is away. No matter the setting, I pay attention to each pet’s personality and needs, because some pets want lots of play and interaction while others need a gentler, quieter approach. My goal is always to make pets feel as relaxed, loved, and comfortable as possible.

About: Hi, my name is Michelle. Over the years I’ve raised and trained many of my own pets and regularly dog sit for all of my family. I currently have one dog, a Rat Terrier named Memo. He is high energy but he's a happy boy and has the best temperament. For housesitting, please be advised that I will be bringing Memo to stay with me at your home. If you want to see more of my cutie, check out his bio. I’ve cared for dogs of all kinds, from playful puppies who need extra attention and playtime to older dogs who just need a slower pace and a little extra patience. I’m comfortable managing multiple dogs of all sizes. That includes 'pullers' and/or dog reactive from my experience walking dogs at shelters. Here are a few things I’m happy to help with: • Walks, playtime, and activities that keep your dog active and engaged • Puppy guidance and reinforcement of training routines if requested • Patient care for senior dogs or pets with special needs (including administering medications) • Flexible scheduling when possible • Pick up/Drop off within 5 miles of my house. (Main & Civic Center in Santa Ana) • Grooming (only the basics: bathing, drying, brushing.) Price depends on size and length of fur. Sorry, no nail trims. • Dependable care with the same love and attention I give my own dog. (Snuggling always included!) I'd love to schedule a meet-and-greet to meet you and your pet! I do project based work from home so I'm present and not tied down to a rigid schedule which means I have the time and flexibility to give your pet attention when needed. I have a Rat Terrier who gets a long with all dogs, he loves to play but is pretty respectful of dogs who are not into it. Dogs have free rein of my house. I spend a good amount of time with them outside in the yard, they are never let out without supervision.

“Lauren was our first rover house visit experience and was really great. Arrived on time and followed our instructions as expected. Dogs seemed to really enjoy their time! Would totally get her again if we can!”

“Tessa is an amazing addition to our weekly routine. She is very communicative and reliable. My dog is very shy and slow to warm, but he has been easily won over by Tessa’s care and consistency. I do not have to worry if my dog is safe or able to go outside, due to Tessa’s drop-in services.”

About: Growing up I have always had dogs and other animals, and I am always the go to when our friends or family need a pet sitter. I love to take care of animals like they are my own. I am currently a college student finishing up my last semester, I do not have a full time job and wanted to spend time with animals when I am not doing essays or studying. I have an open schedule. I am very kind and gentle with every kind of pet, they are like family and I will treat them as such. If I could be a stay-at-home dog mom that would be the best thing in the world! I am very flexible with any needs that are to be met.

“I am SO grateful for Ashely. She is so warm and wonderful and an absolute cat whisperer 💕 My cats don’t come out for anyone else. I don’t think I could ever leave town without her.”

Some are crated and others are allowed to roam freely, this all just depends on what you prefer.

“Diana was a great petsitter who watched over our 2 cats for a long weekend. She was very communicative and followed all the instructions on how to feed them and administer medicine. She made us feel very comfortable leaving them in good hands!”
