About: I have 7 years of cat experience from my adolescent until now. I have been the primary care taker of 4 cats through this time and I have also had the opportunity to cat sit for friends and family in the area. I am well versed in cat behavior and know how to handle all breeds and personalities. I am a part time student who has a very flexible schedule. Because of this I am able to spend a lot of time at home to provide care for the cats that I would be taking care of. I insure that cats are able to maintain a clean and healthy environment. I will make sure that the cats will always have fresh food and water. I will also make it my priority to clean the litter box and any other cat related issues. I think the most important thing about cat sitting is giving the cats plenty of play time and attention so they can be active and happy everyday.

About: From zoomies to snoozies, I’ve got every pup covered! Whether it’s a playful puppy or a wise senior, I treat every dog like my own, because to me, they are family. With experience across all breeds and ages, I’ll make sure your fur baby gets the love, care, and attention they deserve! I work full-time in a hybrid format, with Fridays off after 1 p.m. On weekends, I’m available for dog sitting, walks, or any other pet care needs you may have. My apartment complex features a dog park and a walking path around the grounds, offering plenty of space for outdoor fun. I understand the importance of regular walks in a dog’s routine, so I make sure my own fur baby gets several each day. We also have a sunny patio where dogs can relax and soak up the rays. Felix, my pup, is great with other dogs—he’s patient, playful, and almost fatherly with puppies, while with older dogs, he knows to embrace the laid-back pace of retirement life.

“Jessica did a great job checking in on my pets and making sure they were well taken care of. Thanks for a great first experience with Rover, Jessica!”

About: I grew up around dogs and cats since the moment I was born, have had cats, dogs, guinea pigs and taken care of various other animals. There isn't a pet I'm not ecstatic to meet, and I love being around animals especially dogs. I'm knowledgeable about the basic needs for cats and dogs, and know how to handle dogs up to 100 lbs. I am currently working remote so I'm available at your convenience. I love both early mornings and am also referred to as a night owl. I have no pets at this time so your pet will receive plenty of love and attention. I understand and respect all house rules and know to keep an eye on your beloved pets so they stay out of trouble and off of furniture and or carpet. Don't hesitate to mention any requests, special comments, or any specific needs to make you and your pet feel safer.

“Chelsea was great watching my cat Jasper :) he's pretty shy, can be cranky, and keeps to himself but he warmed up to Chelsea pretty quickly. Chelsea sent great updates and pictures so that comforted me to know that my cat was in good hands 😊 Thanks Chelsea! I'll definitely use you again next time we are out of town!”

About: With over 9 years of pet care experience, I’ve cared for various breeds, ensuring they receive personalized attention. My own two dogs, Kalli and Mikey, are rescue pups who keep me active and teach me daily about empathy and patience. I’m currently working part time so I have plenty of time to care for your pup! I am available Friday through Monday with flexible hours to accommodate your fur babies needs. Your pups safety and your trust are my top priorities. Coming up with a care plan, emergency preparedness, maintaining a secure environment, and giving regular updates. It is my responsibility to gather all the information I need to ensure a positive experience for everyone.

About: My wife and I currently have a cat named Luna (who is the cat in my picture). I’ve grown up with and taken care of pets (particularly cats) ever since I was a kid. I even gave my childhood cats medicine and IV fluids every night for 4 years from 2008 until they passed away in 2012 in order to keep them alive despite having kidney failure. I even gave our late cat Precious (the cat we had before we got our current cat Luna) medicine for the last couple months of her life until she died of cancer. So keeping cats (pets in general) alive when they’re sick as long as they’re not in any pain is something that is VERY important to me. However, even though I do have more experience taking care of cats than dogs, I’m MORE than capable of caring for/walking dogs. I currently work full time Monday-Friday from 6:30 am until 5:30 pm (6:30 am-3:00 pm if you don’t include my commute). So at least for Monday-Friday I’ll only be able to provide my services in the evening. For the most part, I’m available any time of day on Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays. In my home right now I just feed me and my wife’s cat twice a day. With clients pets i’m willing to play with, walk feed, and/or give medicine as long as it’s medicine I can just put in their food (giving medicine by hand and/or IV fluids is something I only feel comfortable doing with my own pets)

About: I have successfully raised two miniature pinschers, from puppies to adults, and I find great joy in taking them on exciting adventures in nature. These experiences strengthen our bond and provide them with the mental stimulation they crave. Pet care fits into my daily routine cause I am very active person throughout the day either running with my dogs at the beach or hiking the trails. With a passion for delivering exceptional pet care, I treat animals with the same devotion as I would my own. As an active individual, I will provide twice-daily feedings for dogs and accompany them on morning beach walks, hikes or engage in playtime within my securely fenced backyard.

About: I’ve been with dogs all my life. I help exercise, play, and babysit dogs for day and sometimes weeks. I am a huge dog lover and will always put dogs first. I am currently working full-time remotely, so I am fully available almost every day with the exception of traveling for work or personal! I am ready to meet so many new canine friends & help in anyways I can to my human friends! I currently live in a condo in Costa Mesa with two large parks near my house so I walk dogs about 2 to 3 times per day and have plenty of playtime inside our condo and when we are watching a dog we never really leave so know that your dog will always be accompanied by me.

About: I’ve never met an animal I didn’t love! I am the girl at the party hanging out with the dog. I am the one everyone I know calls when they need a pet sitter or find a stray dog that needs help. I’ve been pet sitting for friends and family for years and recently started getting referrals. I love taking care of animals so much I thought I might as well do it professionally! I’ve had dogs my whole life, it is second nature to love and care for them. I have fostered several dogs, a guinea pig, a chinchilla, and even a turtle. I have several years of experience caring for a senior pet and keeping up with a strict diet, medication schedule and other specific needs. I am very comfortable making trips to the vet if necessary. I worked with wildlife for many years which gave me lots of specialized experience. All of this is to say that animals are my thing! And you can trust me to follow directions in taking care of your furry family members. :) I would love the opportunity to meet your pet(s) and give you peace of mind knowing your animal(s) and home will be well taken care of and loved while you are away! I currently work full time which makes me pretty busy during the week, but I am fully available on Friday nights after 6pm and weekends! I can also be available in the evenings during the week for walks or drop ins. If your pet is ok being home alone while I’m at work during the week I’m happy to pet/house sit during the week as well. :) I promise to treat your babies as my own! I have a car well equipped for pups if we want to take a ride to the park or anywhere else, if you’re comfortable with that. Your pup will always be leashed when on walks/ outside the house. Inside the house I will follow your rules and directions! You know what’s best for your animals. :)

About: I’ve taken care of many dogs and cats over the years. A close friend of mine trusts me to take care of her 2 dogs and 2 cats whenever she is out of town or goes on long trips. She trusts me and knows they are in good hands. I routinely watch over my roommates 2 cats due to working from home 4/5 days of the week. I would love to be given the opportunity to take care of your precious pets! I work from home 4/5 days of the week so I am fairly flexible Friday-Wednesday to go where I need to throughout the day. Some Thursdays, I work in office during the morning/afternoon. I don’t have too many personal obligations, so it would be easy for me to watch over your pets for the majority of the week! Although I do not offer my own home services. I would treat your personal space with the utmost respect and adhere to any rules that you would require as you are trusting me with your home and with your pets.

About: Hello! I have trained puppies and dogs for basic obedience and shows for 15 years. I started as a mentee at 9 with a certified show dog runner and trainer for 1.5 years and started training my neighbor’s dogs as practice. I have since started boarding various pets throughout college up until now. As a pet owner, I know just how important it is to find the right person to care for and be responsible for our family members - I’m definitely that person and will ensure the upmost respect for you and your pets! I like to give my clients and their pets the time to get to know me and feel like they’re making the right choice. I like to keep everything transparent and open for discussion. I live in a large two-story home with a fenced backyard and plenty of running space. I believe in lots of mental and physical stimulation to keep all animals in my care happy and healthy. I work from home at the moment so I have a very flexible schedule. I like to get 10k steps a day for my own health and make it a point to go for a 2 hour walk a day and love having a companion there with me :) My home is pet proofed from any toxic plants, food is kept out of reach, and my home is treated for pests and fleas monthly. I also have dog gates in case I ever need to section a part of the home off. I don’t like to use dog crates in my home and like to let pets have a lot of freedom and space to feel their most comfortable.
