“Wow Bennie and Jennie were exceptional. They were very communicative and provided details about everything. They provided constant updates and I could tell that they had plenty of experience taking care of cats”

“I am so grateful for the great help from Irina and she is so caring and well knowledgeable of taking care of little fur friends.

Definitely I will find Irina again for my next trip! Thank you very much!”


“April is a 5-star sitter all the way! She’s timely with her messages, checkins and pickup/return of my keys. She’s respectful and trustworthy, taking great care of my fur baby, plants and home. I highly recommend her!”


About: Hi, I’m Sonya – your dog’s next favorite walking buddy (and so much more)! 🐾 As a lifelong animal lover and experienced caregiver, I know that every pet has their own personality – and I treat each one like family. Whether your dog loves energetic walks, slow sniff sessions, or just a cuddle and potty break, I’m here to meet their unique needs with love and reliability. In addition to dog walking, I also offer drop-in visits for feeding, playtime, or medication, and home sitting for those times you’re away and want to make sure your pet feels safe and loved in their own space. I’m dependable, detail-oriented, and I genuinely enjoy building trust with both pets and their people. You can expect regular updates, cute photos, and total peace of mind while your furry friend is in my care. If you’re looking for someone warm, trustworthy, and completely devoted to your pet’s happiness and well-being—I’d love to help. Let’s make every day a tail-wagging adventure! 🐶💕 Pet care is a natural and fulfilling part of my daily routine! I build my schedule around the pets I care for, making sure I have plenty of time and flexibility to give each one the attention, exercise, and love they deserve. Whether it’s morning walks, midday drop-ins, or overnight stays, I plan my days to prioritize consistency and reliability for my clients and their pets. Spending time with animals brings me so much joy – it never feels like “work,” just something I genuinely love being part of every day. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat their space and their pets with the same respect and love I would give my own. I follow any instructions closely—whether it’s feeding routines, medication, walk preferences, or favorite toys—and always prioritize the pet’s comfort and safety. I take time to bond with them, keep their environment tidy, and maintain their normal routine as much as possible to reduce stress while you’re away. I also send regular updates and photos so you feel confident knowing your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for in their own home.

“Novia informed me that she was available to cat-sit for another day as our flight would arrive late and we were more than happy to have our cats’ needs be addressed. Novia was also communicative throughout our interaction on the app. Our cats and everything in our place were well cared for.”


“Lexi was very nice to my pets. They loved getting her attention . I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing she would be there for my pets. She sent great pictures of them. Lexi also cleaned up the dog litter in yard on the last day, very nice.”


About: I’ve been around dogs since early childhood — they’ve always been part of my family. My own dog lived with me for 16 years, and throughout my life I’ve cared for pets with love, patience, and attention to their needs. I’m calm, responsible, and truly love spending time with animals. I recently moved from Ukraine and now live in Irvine. I would be happy to care for your furry friend as if they were my own. I currently have a flexible schedule and plenty of free time throughout the day — mornings, afternoons, and evenings. Pet care easily fits into my daily routine, and I always make sure each dog gets individual attention and love. I'm available most days, including weekends. Safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always keep a close eye on the animals and make sure they feel calm, safe, and well cared for. I follow the owner's instructions, respect each pet's habits, and maintain open communication. From my own experience, I know that every animal has its own personality, so I act gently, with attention and care. My own dog lived to be 16 years old. In her final months, she lost the ability to walk, and I cared for her daily with patience and love. This experience taught me how to support senior dogs and those with special needs. I speak Ukrainian and Russian, and I use a translator to communicate in English.

About: Hello! My name is Genevieve and I’m a 24 year old medical assistant and animal shelter volunteer! 🐕 Long walks, quick potty breaks, or a mix—whatever fits your pup best 🎾 Regular play sessions—fetch, tug, or enrichment to burn energy and have fun 🛏️ Comfortable with crate training and sticking to your pet’s routine 🍲 Confident with fresh/raw feeding, supplements, and detailed meal prep 💊 Able to administer oral/topical meds, including for seniors 🐶 Experienced with reactive, energetic, and strong-pulling dogs 🧸 Patient with shy, anxious, or rescue pups needing extra TLC 🛁 Light grooming like brushing, ear cleaning, or wiping paws after walks 🐾 Puppy care: potty training, socializing, basic leash manners 🐕🦺 Senior dog care: gentle walks, joint support, and extra comfort 💪 Comfortable walking and handling large dogs (70+ lbs) 📷 I send regular photo/video updates to keep you in the loop 🧹 I keep things clean—litter, bowls, food areas, and messes 🧠 Can reinforce basic commands like sit, stay, and come 🏡 Happy to water plants, bring in mail, and respect your space 📅 Flexible schedule for daytime care and drop-ins 💻 I study when I sit—just need Wi-Fi and a cozy spot! 🐾 Volunteer at a shelter—experienced with all sizes, breeds, and temperaments MY EXPERIENCE WITH DOGS: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and officially started caring for my own in 2019. I have two corgis—Jarvis and Friday—who’ve taught me a lot about handling different personalities and needs. Jarvis is high-energy and always ready to go, so we do long walks, fetch, and tons of play until he’s finally ready for a nap (then repeat!). Friday is more low-key—she plays briefly but loves to cuddle all day, and I’m happy to give her both. She’s also dog- and people-reactive and has a nose for getting into trouble (counter-surfing, poop-eating—you name it), so I’m extra alert and used to staying ahead of chaos. I’ve also volunteered at a dog shelter for over a year, where I’ve walked and cared for dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments—from tiny seniors to 70+ lb dogs full of pent-up energy. I’ve learned how to handle even the most intense or challenging pups with patience, structure, and care. Friends and family often rely on me to care for their pets because they know I’m responsible, observant, and truly love what I do. TL;DR : 🧑💼 Part-time work (2 days/week) 📚 Studying for the MCAT during my free time 🕘 Mornings and evenings usually available 🏡 Open for drop-ins and house sitting 😴 House sitting: I sleep at home but return daily 🪑 Wi-Fi + chair/table or couch/TV = I’m all set! 📅 Flexible on weekends and most weekdays I work part-time and study for the MCAT when I’m not working, so I have a flexible schedule for both drop-ins and house sitting. I don’t sleep over for house sitting, but I’ll reliably be there every morning and evening—and can hang out during the day if you’ve got Wi-Fi and a cozy spot to study. Your pets will get plenty of love, care, and company! TL;DR: 🐾 I stick closely to your pet’s routine to keep them happy and relaxed 🐶 Experienced with reactive dogs and keeping curious pups out of trouble 🚶♀️ Daily walks, potty breaks, and plenty of playtime 🥘 Comfortable with special diets, fresh food, and detailed feeding routines 🏠 I’ll keep your home clean, secure, and respected ❤️ Your pet will be safe, loved, and cared for like my own Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I follow your instructions carefully to maintain their routine and reduce stress while you're away. I’m very attentive—whether it’s managing reactivity on walks or keeping curious pets out of mischief. At home, my dogs follow a consistent schedule with morning and evening walks, hourly backyard potty breaks, and fetch every 1–2 hours. If your home doesn’t have a yard, I’m happy to provide more short walks as needed. I also feed my dogs fresh food with multiple supplements, so I’m confident handling complex feeding routines or special diets. You can count on me to treat your pet like family and keep your home tidy, secure, and respected while you’re gone.

About: I’ve grown up with both cats and dogs! Outside of my own pets, I have had experience in both dog/cat sitting and house sitting for friends and family. From my past experiences, I have built close and trusting relationships with both animals and owners. I’m responsible, have great communication skills, and tend to be flexible with scheduling. I just graduated from college and I’m free these upcoming months (June-Aug.) for pet sitting and house sitting! My schedule is very flexible, so I’m open to daily and weekly check ups. I’m open to caring for each animal based on the owners requests and desires! I’m naturally a nurturing person so paying close attention to animals are my top priority!

About: I grew up on a ranch with every kind of animal. I am a huge animal lover. I will take excellent care of your house and fur babies … Retired empty nester I can watch your animals 24/7! I can take care of your pets in your home and love them like you do. I will take care of your house and animals with nurturing loving care! I am licensed and insured! Professional and affordable. Worry less while you are away!

About: I’ve had over 15 years of experience, walking and caring for dogs. I’ve pet sat 4 pound dogs, and even 50 pounds! I can watch multiple dogs at once if needed, or just your sweet furry baby if you prefer 1:1 attention. Grew up around dogs, I have watched 6 dogs in one sitting. I love them so much!! Cannot get enough! I work from home so your furry friend will have 24/7 attention. I can take them on as many or as little walks as you’d want. I personally go on walks every 2 hours or so. I have a park in my neighborhood with plenty of grassy areas. Have a patio if they just want air too! I give pets 110% of my attention. I work from home, so they will always have company. I am in a gated community, so it is very safe and pet friendly. Plenty of filtered water to go around! I am gentle and kind.

About: Hey there- I'm Adam. I've had the absolute pleasure of living with and taking care of pets for the last several years in LA and OC. Most recently, my experience has included dog sitting an adorable 80lb Instagram celebrity pooch (ask me about it!) during his owner's vacations abroad. What sets me apart is my attention to the highest quality care and ensuring owners feel at ease while away from their pets. I do this through proactive communication, paying close attention to detail and being somebody you can rely on. My job is to not only make your pet feel comfortable, but also their owner! I'd love to get the chance to help you however I can. I work a full-time day job as a Senior Marketing Manager in Irvine from 9am-6pm. My open windows during weekdays generally range from 7-8:30am, 12:00-1:00pm or 7:00-9:00pm. My schedule is more flexible on the weekends when I'm in town. I bring a warm, fun and friendly attitude around pets that I take care of. At the same time, knowing that every pet has their own unique personality, I make sure to respect their needs and moods- whether they're introverted and like to keep to themselves, more playful/ energetic or just need some pets and cuddles! I'm also comfortable with individual needs (e.g. particular diets, medications needed, types of physical activity needed, etc.). All I ask is for full transparency by the owner of any needs I should be aware of to make sure your pet is given the best care possible :)

About: I provide personalized care for every stage of a dog's life, with a particular passion for senior care. I understand the unique needs of senior dogs – from administering medication to offering gentle exercise and tailored comfort to keep them feeling their best. Whether it's managing prescriptions, specialized diets, or simply providing extra attention, I'm here to ensure both you and your pup have peace of mind while you're away. I also bring flexibility to my pet-sitting services, as I work from home. I can provide your dog with playtime, walks, or cuddles while you're busy, ensuring your furry friend has a great time while you're away from home. As someone who works from home, pet care naturally fits into my daily routine. I enjoy taking frequent walk and play breaks with the pets, which helps both me and the animals stay active and engaged. These breaks provide an opportunity for quality time, exercise, and bonding, ensuring the pets are happy and well-cared for throughout the day. Whether it’s a leisurely walk or a playful game, I make sure to integrate these moments into my schedule, keeping your pet stimulated and content while I work. In your home, I maintain the same level of care as you provide by respecting your pet’s routine and space. I’ll follow your instructions closely, ensuring their daily habits are kept as normal as possible, from feeding times to play sessions. If your pet has special needs, such as medication or medical care, I’m experienced in handling that with great attention to detail and love. Ultimately, my goal is to make your pet feel safe, loved, and happy.

About: I am a carrying and responsible dog walker who enjoys walks in Newport Ridge area. I walk my dog (Golden Retriever Bob 1,5 years old) and dogs from the neighborhood to the dog park or in the nice, green areas of Newport Coast. I would be happy to walk your dog during the day with my dog so they can play together or only your dog. I am available during the day from 9am until 2pm and from 4pm. I can also be available for weekend walks depending on the arrangement. There is a fenced dog park close to where I live and plenty of green areas and parks where your dog can get enough exercise. Every day around 5pm a group of dog owners is coming to the park to let the dogs run around and play so if you would like to socialize your dog so it would be a great opportunity.

Genevieve B.
“Genevieve has been walking our dog Olive for the past two months while we’ve adjusted to a new work schedule, and she’s been absolutely incredible. Olive is a 4-year-old mutt with some leash reactivity and trust issues with strangers, so we were cautious about who we hired. From the very first meeting, Genevieve showed she understood dog behavior and was patient and confident in a way that immediately reassured us and Olive. She’s always on time, communicates clearly, and takes Olive on walks that leave her tired and happy. She even takes extra time to play fetch in the yard if Olive needs more stimulation. On rainy days, Genevieve towels her off and wipes her paws before bringing her inside. Little things like that show she truly cares. She also sends updates with every walk, including a quick note about how Olive did, which we really appreciate. It’s so hard to find someone you fully trust with your dog, but Genevieve has made that easy for us. We feel lucky to have her in our lives, and Olive absolutely lights up whenever she hears her coming. We cannot recommend her enough.”

Talia F.
“Talia has taken care of my cat, Peach, multiple times and it's been a great experience every time! Peach is almost 2 years old and has a lot of energy so she needs someone who can keep up with her! Talia typically stays at my house and takes care of everything. Peach gets so excited when she sees her and when I come home, everything is clean and tidy. Talia is a kind, sweet, and thoughtful pet caregiver. I'll definitely continue having her take care of my baby!”

Ashley N.
“With four dogs, it’s not an easy task, but she handles them with so much love, patience, and care. Each of our pups has their own unique needs, and Ashley tailors her approach to ensure they’re all happy and well exercised.

The dogs absolutely adore her, and we feel so lucky to have someone we can trust completely.”
