House Sitting in Rancho Santa Margarita

“Kristie stayed at our house with our 2 golden retrievers. She was amazing. I got constant updates and photos. Already booked another stay with her.”

“Laura was great! We felt our pets were in safe, loving hands and had no worries at all while we were away on our trip. We can't wait to have her come over again!”

Maya B.

“John was amazing! Immediately got good vibes my dogs were comfortable and approached him right away. I was so anxious about leaving them but I didn’t worry once while I was gone. He sent pics and regular updates. Just all around amazing. I have rebooked him already for another trip and planning a few others now that I found someone I feel safe leaving my boys with.”

About: Use to take care of apartment with three huskies including my own :) have owned 5 dogs in my lifetime till they passed away! I also owned two cats that get along with my dog! I am almost available daily if i don’t have a job on hand! My husky runs 3 times a day and loves it. I also take care of two cats at home I treat all pets like they are my own! I have never met a dog or cat that doesn’t like it, especially cats! They love me

“Kajsa has been nothing but amazing to our senior dog (17 years old) and super accommodating to our busy schedules. She took the time to not only get to know our dog, but to also to get to know us as pet parents. Kajsa is super loving to our dog and very attentive to his needs as a senior pup. We are so thankful that Kajsa has been able to help us with Ubie and Ubie is very happy that Kajsa came into his life.”

About: In the past, I had a dog who lived until 17 years old because I took great care of her. I also help my friends with their dogs when they are out of town. I'm working from 9 AM to 4 PM, Monday to Friday, but I'm open to night shifts. I love to walk long distances; I find this benefits not only the dogs but also myself. Whether your fur baby is a snuggly couch potato or a zoomie champion, I’ve got the energy (and treats) to keep them happy and safe while you’re away! ✅ Daily updates with adorable pics ✅ Walks, cuddles, playtime galore ✅ Responsible, reliable, and slightly obsessed with dogs 🐕

“Erika is a joy to work with—gave our terrier lots of cuddles, walks and love—and also sent photos. She is very responsible and communicates regularly.”

About: I’ve lived with animals my whole life! In addition to my own pets, I often sit for friends and family and am equipped to watch, feed, walk, and play with pets. I am comfortable with dogs and cats of all sizes and have experience with senior pet care as well. I am currently on summer break from university so I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to watch your pups and cats! I am experienced in caring for pets of all ages and sizes. I pay careful attention to any dietary and health needs they may have and am familiar with crating as well.

“Shayna was so great with my dog. He has really bad separation anxiety and Shayna stayed all day with him and he loved her. He was able to relax and feel comfortable with her which put our minds at ease while we were gone. So glad we found someone to help us when we need to leave.”

About: I have always been part of volunteer groups and multiple pet expos taking care and playing with dogs. I have had experience walking dogs for the past 6 years for family’s friends and all my bookings on Rover. I am looking to take care and walk dogs during the week and weekends. I would love to hopefully start my own dog walking business and gain experience. I have always grown up near them with my friends or other family members having multiple pets and trusting me to take care of them and walk the pups.

“Martina was amazing. We have two sitters we tend to use but they book up for fast. We were in desperate need of a third and were so happy we found Martina. She came over ahead of time to meet our pup. Our pup immediately loved her, which is a great sign. She spent as much time as she could with her, outside of work. She walked her before and after work. She sent us pictures and was very responsive. We definitely recommend Martina and we will be using her again.”

About: I grew up in a lively household with 6 dogs and 3 cats, so caring for animals has always been second nature to me. Over the last 15 years, I’ve pet sat for nearly everyone in my life- friends, family, neighbors, you name it. Whether it’s long walks, belly rubs, medication for seniors, or playtime with energetic pups, I bring patience, attentiveness, and genuine love to every animal I care for. This path felt inevitable. So here I am I work from home full-time, which gives me a flexible schedule to offer walks, check-ins, or boarding throughout the day. I take regular strolls to the park and around the lake, so I’d love a furry friend to join me! Whether it’s a morning walk, a midday play session, or a relaxing evening cuddle, I’m home and available to give your pet the attention they deserve. I have a fully fenced-in, sun-filled patio with a large, comfy outdoor couch- perfect for lounging in the fresh air, surrounded by birds and plants. Inside, pets can relax on a spacious, pet-friendly couch and feel right at home. I’m attentive to each pet’s needs and can create a calm, secure environment tailored to their comfort, whether they’re staying the day or overnight.

“Angeline was great again with Finn! He was happy and well cared for. Second time using her and will definitely be using her again in the future.”

Tammy H.

“Lauren was absolutely incredible and we will definitely be using her services again! We were in a pinch to find someone to not only watch our pup, but take care of our home while away. She was very respectful of the space, communicative throughout the process, came to meet us before the scheduled times to meet up and meet our dog, and was a great guest. Walter loves her amd can’t wait to have her back! Thank you so much, Lauren! You are the best!!!”

About: I was born in the UK and have had dogs my whole life—growing up on a big country property, we always had furry companions! My childhood was spent with a Corgi and later an Irish Setter. Since moving here in my 30's, we’ve had many wonderful rescue dogs, including a particularly mischievous Beagle! We’re dedicated dog parents (note: my husband (background checked too) is also available when needed) who love training our pups but also spoiling them with love. Senior dogs hold a special place in our hearts (our current pup is a senior), but we also adore the energy and antics of younger dogs. Having recently used ROVER for our own dogs, we completely understand the hesitation of leaving your pets with someone new. But rest assured—we’ll treat your dogs like family, with plenty of love, cuddles, walks, and affection. We can’t wait to meet your furry friend! We specialize in the small dog variety!! We work from home every day, with our dogs always nearby as we go about our day. We rarely go out in the evenings, and our pups sleep in our room at night. We truly love spending time at home with our furry companions! We have a fenced back patio and a doggy door, making it easy for pups to come and go. We love going on walks and will make sure your dog gets plenty of exercise. We want your dog to feel completely comfortable—whether that means using their own bedding or a crate if you prefer. We also understand that routines are important and are happy to follow your dog's schedule!

About: I have been a pet owner for over 50 years and consider them little fur people and treat them as such. A true animal lover! I have three pets of my own along with fish and have a very precise routine. Animals need structure they crave it. That is the key. We have our routine we get up we go outside we get our breakfast we walk in the P.m. we have dinner, Loves all day long.

About: As passionate dog lovers, we specialize in providing heartwarming, attentive care that caters to the unique needs of each dog, from playful puppies all the way to cherished seniors. Our approach is rooted in a deep love for dogs, ensuring young pups flourish in a loving environment and senior dogs enjoy comfort and gentle attention. We carefully administer any needed medications and create a tranquil atmosphere for all. Our devotion to each dog’s individual well-being makes us not just sitters, but a trusted part of your pet’s extended family. With one of us always working from home and the other boasting a flexible schedule, we’ve woven pet care deeply into the fabric of our daily lives. This perfect arrangement ensures that there’s constantly someone available to shower your pet with attention and affection. Whether it's engaging in joyful walks, lively play sessions, or simply offering comforting companionship, we ensure every pet in our care enjoys a full day of interaction and love. Twice a week, we even visit local dog parks without a furry companion of our own, just to bask in the joy of being around dogs—we simply can't get enough! Our adaptable routine and heartfelt dedication to animal care allow us to create a stable, nurturing environment, making sure your beloved pet feels as blissfully at home with us as they do with you. In Our Home: When pets stay with us, they're treated as part of the family. We maintain a safe and welcoming environment, ensuring they have comfortable spaces to rest, access to secure outdoor areas for play, and plenty of love and attention throughout the day. We adhere to their regular feeding and exercise routines to keep them happy and healthy.

We handle everything from feeding, walking, and playtime, to administering any necessary medications. We also ensure your home is secure, providing you peace of mind while you’re away.

“Dawn did a great job watching my greyhound over the holiday week. She made sure to take pictures for his walks and when he was fed and checked in with him regularly. She was really responsive as well and had a great with my dog. Will definitely book again and recommend her as a sitter!!”

“Amazing as expected with Shannon. She came on time, followed instructions, and our puppy was sound asleep when we returned. Shannon provides updates and pictures during her stay. She is polite and communicative. We would continue to hire Shannon for pet sitting our little guy! Thanks Shannon!”

Shayan & Raina

“Marianna was absolutely fantastic. Our dog, Bastian, was well cared for and loved while we were away. We will definitely be asking her to take care of our pup again.”
