Pet Sitting San Joaquin Hills

“Courtney was amazing! Went beyond just stopping by to check in our dog but demonstrated care and affection by playing with him and showing him love.”

“Deborah is a passionate pet sitter who loves animals and is dedicated to caring for pets. I had forgotten to call the gate about her coming in the first night and she was so kind and understanding about having to come back a second time the same night to care for our kitty. She is very responsible and sent lots of photos!”

About: I’m confident your baby won’t miss mommy and daddy while in my care. We’ll spend quality time walking, running, and hiking as much as they’d like, plus plenty of cuddles in between. We can do this as my partner and I both work from home. I know exactly how hard it is to leave a pet behind, so I make sure every pet parent gets regular updates and cute photos to ease separation anxiety (I have one with my pets😉🤣). I’m also a skilled photographer, so you’ll get great shots of your baby having a blast. I’m a huge animal lover, the kind whose feed is entirely animals, including species some people find intimidating. I’ve had all kinds of pets over the years, and every one of them outlived its expected lifespan under my care. I’ve looked after family and friends’ dogs since I was a kid, and for the past several years I’ve spent a month annually caring for my aunt’s elderly dog, who is deaf and blind and only trusts me with her care. Since I’m almost always home and only leave to exercise, I can play and cuddle with your pet all day long. Being athletic myself and having easy access to great trails and walking routes nearby makes me an ideal dog walker. My partner, a former tennis player, is also an expert at fetch at the park right next to us. I work from home and barely go out because I am a homebody who loves cuddling and playing with animals all day. I love running and walking near my place and can do it as much as needed. My place is a third-floor townhome plan, and it’s 1,500 sq ft. I don’t leave my place except to work out or for special occasions. (This will be communicated to you before booking.) We have three cats at home who are shy but sweet and wouldn’t ever bother the dog. They are all fully vaccinated, including rabies. We have many hiking trails, beach walks, and parks near our place, so we can go to entertain the dogs as much as they want:) If you allow us, we can take the baby for a beach day too!😉

“This was my first time using Novia, and she was terrific! She took great care of my little guy and provided wonderful updates at each visit. I’ll definitely use her again!”

About: What sets me apart is the combination of meticulous, individualized care and real experience with reactive dogs. I understand that every dog has their own personality, comfort level, routines, and boundaries, and I’m attentive to the little details that help them feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. I also love getting dogs outside for plenty of enrichment, whether that’s exploring the Back Bay, enjoying nature, going on walks, or simply having a fun adventure at their own pace. My goal is for every dog to have a safe, attentive environment and feel like they’re on their own little vacation. I work full time from home in OC, California. I have a fairly good size apartment and a large patio (almost small yard size) with access to lots of walking trails immediately behind my home. Your dog will be cared for as if they were my own Juno boy. I’m extremely detail-oriented when it comes to pet care, and safety is always my highest priority. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, feeding schedule, medications, exercise needs, quirks, and comfort level so I can provide truly individualized care rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach. In my home, I have a crate-trained dog and several separate rooms, along with gates that allow me to safely manage different spaces. This means I can comfortably accommodate more sensitive, shy, reactive, or simply more independent dogs who may need their own space or gradual introductions. I’m very mindful of interactions between pets and never assume that every dog wants the same level of socialization. Whether your pet is staying in my home or I’m caring for them in yours, I’m attentive to their environment, behavior, and wellbeing throughout the day. I want you to feel completely confident that your pet is not only getting plenty of love and attention, but is being cared for thoughtfully, safely, and responsibly while you’re away.

I have been a volunteer for almost 12 months now and I'm on the dog walking team. I volunteer 6 hrs wk and I have a part time job that is extremely flexible. I live alone and Ido not have a boyfriend.. Make sure they have ample walks and adventures, I will take them probably to the dog park or go on errands in the car. If they like to ride in the car and we'll definitely play ball and I'll just love on your animal like it was my own.

About: I have loved dogs (particularly big dogs) since I was a little girl! I've been volunteering at Priceless Pets in Costa Mesa for about three years and love it. My duties include walking, bathing, and loving on all of our shelter dogs that need us. Through the shelter I also got into fostering and have had four foster dogs, three of which were Dobermans, and have gotten them adopted through posting on social media. I spend most of my week with dogs and thought why not offer my services on Rover! I work from home full-time so your dog will never be left alone for more than an hour or two and I plan on bringing them with me for tons of walks, coffee breaks, and fun times in the park! Any dog that's with me I will treat as if they are my own. I can't wait to meet you and your dog! I own my own bussiness so I make my own hours, and since having my own dog full time isn't an option right now, taking care of yours is the next best option! I go for tons of walks and am running errands so your pup will get tons of time outside and be my day to day buddy! I have fostered all dogs from dobermans to mini poodles so I feel really comfortable with all types of dog personalities. Ensuring the safety of your dog and other dogs we may encounter is my highest priority. We can come up with a game plan together of however I can best support your dog and keep them comfortable, happy, and safe!

“Rachel has been absolutely amazing! I have such a hard time leaving my pup, but I was stress free this wedding weekend while I got married because Rachel has been so nice and sweet & kept us updated constantly ! Thank you Rachel!”

About: With over 10 years of pet care experience, I bring a deep understanding and genuine love for dogs of all ages and needs.

About: I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life, and caring for them has always been second nature to me. I have always been the go-to pet sitter for family and friends. I’m dependable, patient, and truly love spending time with animals—whether it’s for an outdoor stroll, engaging playtime, or relaxing together on the couch. I treat every pet like my own and always aim to make them feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I work full-time Monday through Thursday, but I’m often available for evening walks or drop-ins during the week. From Thursday night through Sunday night, I’m available for overnight stays or extended visits at your home. I’m not able to host pets in my own home since I have a cat who prefers to have the space to herself, but I’m more than happy to care for your pets in their familiar environment where they feel most comfortable.
