About: Patience, compassion, and understanding each pet’s individual needs are my top priorities. I have two loveable doxies that love attention and other puppies. As a lifelong animal lover, I believe no job is too big or too small when it comes to making sure your pet gets the love, attention, and care they deserve. I’m both outdoorsy and like to be cozy, so whether your pet loves exploring outside, or simply enjoying the comforts of home, I’m happy to accommodate their routine and make sure they feel right at home. Your pet’s happiness and well-being will always come first! 🐾 My dachshund Frankie has had previous back issues so I am comfortable and acknowledge pets that need special attention and care as needed, just let me know how I can help! I am going back to school for teaching, so I currently have the open availability and flexibility to care, walk and spend time with your pet throughout the week! I look forward to assisting on the weekends, so you can enjoy your plans, worry free and positive your pet is taken care of! 🫡 I have a 2 dachshunds that loves to befriend other doggos. Whether your pet needs a buddy or likes to ride solo, we can work it out so that your doggie is comfortable in a relaxed environment.

“Beans had such a great time here. He came home happy and exhausted (which is amazing!). Booking was super easy and flexible. We will definitely return!”

“Our pup had such a great time with Marissa and her husband. They sent regular updates and brought him on many fun and adventurous walks. They were very up for the challenge of a very energetic puppy and even gave him a chew toy to take home that he became attached to while staying with them. They were very easy to work with and very flexible with pick up and drop off times. Would definitely recommend!”

Christine S.

“Leslie cared for our pup for a week and it went great! We were super happy with her and our dog really liked her as well. We recommend Leslie and would definitely ask her to watch our dog again!”

About: I’ve always believed pets deserve the same love, attention, and care they receive from their own family. I’m a dependable, patient, and caring pet lover who enjoys getting to know each pet’s unique personality and routine. Whether your pup needs an energetic walk, some playtime and cuddles, or simply a calm companion while you’re away, I’m happy to provide attentive, one-on-one care. I understand how important it is to feel confident that your pet is safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I’ll treat your pets like my own, follow their routines and special instructions closely, and keep you updated so you can relax while you’re away. My goal is for every pet to feel happy, secure, and loved! I work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pet the attention and companionship they deserve. I love getting outside for walks throughout the day and am happy to work around your pet’s usual routine. Whether they need a morning walk, midday break, playtime, or some extra company while you’re away, I’m attentive to their needs and will make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’m patient, attentive, and committed to creating a calm, welcoming environment where pets can feel at ease. I’ll follow your instructions and your pet’s routine carefully, including feeding, medications, walks, and any special needs you share with me. I know how important it is to trust someone with a beloved member of your family. I’ll treat your pet with the same care and kindness I would want for my own, while keeping a close eye on them and communicating with you along the way. My goal is for you to feel completely comfortable knowing your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for.

“Kelleen is wonderful! My Bebe had only stayed with family up to this point, and I needed to find someone fairly quickly. I researched a number of Rover’s pet sitters, and Kelleen matched my needs. I was so happy with the way Bebe was treated, I will definitely use Kelleen again. Pictures were taken and sent of different activities, including interacting with her family. Her home was a wonderful place for Bebe, and I never worried about her at all. I highly recommend Kelleen!!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was 10. I grew up with dogs and cats, and have always loved them. I’ve volunteered in a vet, take care of my friends and family’s dogs and just love pets. With my job I travel too much to have a pet of my own YET so this is my favorite way to get to spend extra time with pets. My job is a work from home job with a lot of flexibility. I go into running stores around OC occasionally but make my own schedule. I don’t have a yard but I have a great park nearby and love going on walks. My mom gives her dogs 6-8 walks a day so I grew up believing our pets are family members and treat them incredibly well.

“Great experience. They took such nice care of our dog Hope and treated her as part of the family. My dog loved it, so we do as well. Diana was very flexible and communicated a lot with pics and messages. Her boys also took great care of Hope.”

Mark G.

“Dianne took wonderful care of my dog Bentley, and she really enjoyed her time there. Communication was great, and the whole arrangement was smooth and easy. She even sent me a video of Bentley, which I really appreciated. Dianne handled drop-off and pick-up, making everything very convenient. Bentley was clearly well cared for, and I will definitely reach out to her again for future care.”

About: I have experience fostering for rescues and am used to taking care of dogs of all backgrounds. I am happy to do drop-ins / walks as I love to get my steps in and keep your furry friends company! I have a 3 year old beagle mix named Butter who gets along well with other dogs. I work from home and would love to watch your dog and have your dog keep my dog company if you are interested in boarding or day care. I work from home and am very flexible with my schedule! My dog and I typically go out for at least three walks a day. I have a small fenced in yard and single family home. The surrounding neighborhood is quiet and safe. I have a lot of experience caring for my friends’ pets as well as my own.

“Teresa did an excellent job! She took such good care of our dog and loved on him while we were away. Highly recommend! Will definitely use again.”

“We booked last minute with Matthew and he met us at the library for a quick meet and greet. We requested a photo to see how things were going and Matthew was quick to respond.”

“Mariia is awesome! She made my pup feel at home and kept my mind at ease knowing she was being well taken care of while I was away. I will definitely use her again!”

Jillian S.

“Karen made leaving my dog to go across the country a breeze. From the very first meeting I knew my dog Sparky would be well taken care of. I received regular updates and saw how much Sparky was enjoying himself. I really noticed it when I came to pick him up and didn’t want to leave. I’ll definitely be using Karen in the future.”

Stephanie E.

“Patricia was wonderful! She was friendly, easy to communicate with, and kept us updated with pictures. Skylar seemed very happy and well cared for. We would definitely recommend Patricia and book with her again.”

About: Apart from always caring for my own dogs, I have loved walking my old neighbors pups as well. I am average build but strong for my size so I can handle the tugs from the bigger dogs like husky’s. I have an almost 3 month old who I stay home with so I am available for around the clock care for pups, children, or any elders who need assistance. Me and my baby would love to have your fur baby join our walks and play time! When boarding at my home, all we ask is to please bring your pup washed, thank you! p.s. tips are never expected but alwaysss appreciated;) I am a stay at home mom to a very chill and quiet baby. Our days consist of his nap times, sitting on our enclosed balcony, and going on long walks. We live in a condo with a balcony that has no escape route, and a medium size patio/backyard. It does not have grass but we have a 47x32in. artificial grass mat for potty breaks. The condo has stairs as well.

About: I have loved dogs since I was a child and they are basically the center of my universe. My hobbies include walking my dogs, training my dogs, and taking them on adventures such as the dog park, dog beach, and for hikes in nature. I have fostered, owned, and cared for dozens of dogs and cats, from kittens and puppies, to senior citizens, and everything in between. I am experienced with high energy dogs, and commit to fulfilling the dogs needs that are in my care. I am currently training to become a dog trainer with Method K9, and am knowledgeable about dog psychology, body language and social cues. When your pup is in my care, I work hard to make sure that everyone is getting along with each other and never leave the dogs together alone without supervision. I work to ease any anxiety the pup may be feeling, as new environments can be scary, by properly exercising them and getting them into our household routine. My three dogs are very well trained and behaved, and often times, being in a "pack" with my balanced dogs can be very therapeutic for the incoming dog. What you can expect: a safe, structured home that you pup can settle into and relax during their stay. An environment where they can socialize with balanced dogs, improving their social skills and reducing their anxiety. Structured (walks) and unstructured (play) daily exercise based on the needs of your pup. If you have any questions at all, please feel free to reach out to me! I work part time as a yoga/meditation teacher and drug and alcohol case manager. I am in and out of the house throughout the work week, and 5 hours is the maximum amount of time that I am gone at once (this is on Mondays and Wednesdays). T/Th/F the dogs get a car ride to drop my daughter off at high school, we stop at the dog park or go for a walk, then I am gone for a few hours midday. I work a minimum of 2-3 hours of exercise and fulfillment into the daily routine to keep everyone healthy and happy. I have a decent sized fully fenced back yard with a 6 foot high wall and a locked gate. The dogs stay inside while I am away, and have access to the backyard when I am home. When I am away, the dogs stay separated to ensure everyone's safety. If your dog is crate trained, I find this is the best place for him/her to go when no one is home. Dogs tend to feel less anxious in their crate. I will send updates throughout your pup's stay so you can see what they are up to. They may even be having more fun than you!
