About: I grew up with cats and dogs, so I have a wealth of experience in pet care. I will ensure that your pets feel pampered and loved. I'm often the go-to sitter for my friends and am more than happy to take care of their pets at your home. I maintain a clean house and ensure that all your pets' needs are met. Unfortunately, due to strict regulations in my apartment, I cannot accommodate pets in my own space. I have a full-time position with a hybrid work schedule. Typically, I spend three days at the office and two days to remote work from my home office. I am able to provide care services during my one-hour lunch break, if it suits your needs. My weekends are open and flexible, allowing me to accommodate both short-term and long-term care commitments. This adaptability ensures that I can effectively meet the needs of your pet. Your home is your castle and I will do my best to keep your pets happy and your home spotless. My goal is to adopt the routine your pet is used to.
About: Hi there, I’m Carissa! My deep love for animals began at a young age, as I grew up sharing a crib with a lively orange tabby who was always watching over me. Right now, I have a sweet tabby boy named Torito. My beloved childhood dog, Pepper, passed away two years ago after a long battle with heart disease and I'm still learning to adjust to her absence day by day. I’m eager for more furry companionship and have lots of love to give! ° 𐐪𐑂 ♡ 𐐪𐑂 ₒ 𐐪𐑂 ♡ 𐐪𐑂 ° Over the years, I've cared for stray and feral cats in my backyard, as well as cats and dogs of all ages, some of whom have had various health conditions such as heart disease, arthritis, thyroid disease, anxiety, deafness, blindness, and mobility issues. I've rescued and rehomed stray dogs to loving forever homes on multiple occasions. As a teenager, I volunteered as a weekly cat tender at PetSmart and Petco for two years, which gave me a ton of great experience working with cats of all ages and personalities! I understand trusting someone with your cherished companion can be difficult, which is why I'll provide you with regular updates, including plenty of pictures and videos, so you can feel connected to them while they're in my care. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my number one priorities, and I can guarantee that they’ll be in the best care with me ૮ • ﻌ - ა ⟢ Please note: I only service dogs under 50 lbs, non-reactive/non-aggressive animals, and fixed animals! ⟢ Hablo español. I’m currently doing Rover part-time so I have a fairly open schedule…weekdays or weekends - I’m your girl! I work part-time but can accommodate your request before or after my shifts. I typically have full availability on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Saturdays. My inbox is open and attended to from 8am to 7pm. Please don’t hesitate to reach out and ask about my availability as it can vary! I would love to get to know you + your furry friend and make them feel happy and comfortable while you’re away! ₊˚⊹♡ ⟢ For drop-ins/house sitting: If you have specific covid precautions, please let me know and I’ll be happy to accommodate. Meet-and-greets must be scheduled PRIOR to booking to ensure that we are a good fit for one another. As a safety concern, I am not comfortable with indoor cameras and request that you disclose of any prior to booking a house sitting. I also water plants and make sure packages/mail are brought inside safely. ⟢ For walks: I prioritize safety with leashed walks and only take dogs to fenced areas for off-leash play when asked. I work with one client’s animals at a time rather than doing large group walks so your pup will have my full attention!
About: I have always had an immense passion for animals ever since I was a young girl. I’ve owned different pets in my life including dogs, cats, birds, fishes, spiders etc. As I got older, I wanted to extend my career working with animals and worked at different animal hospitals and specialties. I care for all kinds of pets including young babies to lovely senior pets. Working with animals was the best decision I’ve ever made. I have plenty of experience and knowledge. I hope to hear from you soon and can’t wait to meet your pets! I am available daily including weekends and holidays. My schedule is very flexible at the moment so I can tend to each and every one of your pets needs. I will respect your space and make sure your pet is happy. I know how important both your home and pet are to you. I provide a very loving environment for your pet and plenty of reassurance that both are safe in my hands. 💛
About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have always been known as the animal lover in my family and friend group. I’ve had more than seven dogs of my own over the years, so caring for pets has always been a natural part of my life. I’m also the person my friends and family call when they need someone they trust to care for their pets. I’ve cared for multiple dogs in my home and have experience with potty training and teaching basic commands. I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I take the time to make each pet feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I enjoy spending time with animals, taking them outside, playing with them, and making sure they receive plenty of attention. I’m available during the day for walks, potty breaks, playtime, and drop-in visits, and I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. I also believe communication is important, so I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel comfortable knowing your pet is doing well while you’re away. When caring for pets in my home, safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a fenced-in home and a clean, secure yard where dogs can safely get fresh air, play, and take potty breaks. I keep a clean environment and make sure pets are supervised and have a comfortable space to relax. I’ll also follow any specific instructions you provide regarding feeding, medications, routines, or special needs. Most importantly, I treat every pet in my care the way I would want someone to treat my own. My goal is for your pet to feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away.
About: Hi everybody! My name is Bingbing but I go by Linda:) I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life(even before I was born!) and have years of hands on experience caring for dogs of different sizes, ages, and personalities🐶 I currently have a puppy who I’ve personally cared for every day since he was 2.5 months old, so I’m very familiar with the extra attention, patience, routines, and supervision that puppies need. We also used to have a German Shepherd who I took care of, so I have experience with dogs of very different sizes and personalities! I’m definitely a “helicopter dog mom” with my own dog, and I bring that same level of attentiveness to every pet in my care. I pay close attention to behavior, body language, eating and drinking, bathroom habits, energy levels, and anything that seems out of the ordinary. I know how stressful it can be to trust someone else with your dog, so I’ll always follow your instructions closely, keep you updated, and treat your dog with the same care and attention I’d want someone to give mine. I’m currently in college and taking mostly online classes, which gives me a very flexible schedule. I’m generally available after 10 AM and have plenty of time throughout the day to give your pet walks, playtime, attention, and care without feeling rushed. I care for pets in their own home where they’re most comfortable and can stay in their normal routine. I follow all feeding, walking, medication, crate, and household instructions closely, and I’m very attentive to behavior, energy levels, bathroom habits, and anything that seems unusual. I also make sure doors, gates, leashes, and surroundings are secure at all times. I’m happy to send frequent photo and text updates so you always know how your pet is doing.

“Thanks Rebecca! Rebecca did such an amazing job! Rocket and Benji misses her already! Love all of the detailed info from the walk and how you took care of them by wetting the dog run area and giving them extra water.”
“Josh was great! Luna came back tired which is great because she has so much energy. I couldn’t find poop bags but he came so prepared with his own and asked questions I thought were important. Would recommend.”

“Rachel has been wonderful with our dog Corky. We set up a meet and greet prior to his first walk and Corky loved her! She is very prompt and Corky is alway waiting for her at the door. We would recommend Rachel for dog walking!!”

About: I know how to groom all type of dog hair if you like. They will love all the adventures we will go on. They will always feel welcomed and cared for at all times. I will shower them if you ask. Would love to take care of any dog. I do not mind picking up after them, that is my job. I always have treats and chew toys with me. I will always be available for them when you need me there. Holidays included as well. Will play with them for as long as they want(tummy rubs included). Planning to go to college to learn more about taking care of dogs full time soon. Will always go home satisfied with a full tummy and with a smile on their face. I am currently working a part time job. I do not work much so my availability is very open. My job fluctuates week by week but will always let you know ahead of time. I have a fenced home. My home is also pretty big so very spacious for any pets. I also live in a quiet neighborhood so they will not have to worry about loud sounds.
“Andrea is a amazing sitter and dog walker. My dog and cats love seeing her. She's caring, detail oriented, and just plain loves these animals. She even left a thank you card for us, highly recommend!”


About: I grew up with two dogs and have been a true animal lover for as long as I can remember! I’m reliable, trustworthy, responsible. I understand how important it is to communicate well and keep pet parents updated. I’ll treat your dog like my own and spoil them with plenty of cuddles, playtime, attention, and love while making sure they feel safe and happy! 🐶💕 I can’t wait to meet you and your pup! Hi! I just moved to Orange County and am currently providing pet care full time. I have a very flexible schedule, and happy to accommodate a wide range of drop off/pick up times. and plenty of time to spend with your furry friend 🐕 I am naturally super active, so I am happy to take your pup on walks and trips to the park during their stay! I live in a safe and very dog friendly apartment. There is a fenced in grassy doggy courtyard that is open 24hours! I always send pictures and videos throughout their stay too.

About: I’ve raised a fierce, hyperactive Siberian Husky, so if your dog has enough energy to power a small city… I’ve probably got this. 😂🐺 I’m used to zoomies, dramatic personalities, endless walks, and the classic “I’m definitely not tired yet” attitude. Raising a Husky taught me that patience, exercise, consistency, and lots of love go a long way. I genuinely enjoy keeping dogs active, happy, entertained, and feeling like they’re part of the family! 🐾 I offer a flexible schedule and am committed to providing reliable, attentive care for your pet. I’m happy to accommodate their individual routines, including walks, feeding, playtime, and companionship. My goal is to ensure your pet feels comfortable, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and your peace of mind are my top priorities. 🐾 I treat every home and pet with care and respect, follow your instructions closely, and make sure your pup is safe, comfortable, and cared for during every drop-in visit. I’ll also keep you updated so you know how your pet is doing while you’re away. 🤍
“Yolanda was so good to Archie and Millie! She was communicative and sent pictures. She went above and beyond. They seemed very calm and happy in her presence. We've already booked for more walks. 🐶”
About: My skills are only taking the dogs a bath and taking them on walks, and I play with them as well I give all my attention to them. I start my morning early and then I take the dog out on their first walk of the day, then I feed them their breakfast, then throughout the day I play with them and care for them. The care I would give is just giving them attention and making sure their area is always cleaned. Taking them on walks and playing with them! I always attend them to see what they need. I also provide dog sitting in your own home as much as you need me to, and I can also stay over night staying in your own home! I can come to you if you are not comfortable with your dog leaving home.
About: I grew up in a house that always had animals. Dogs, cats, and a stream of injured wildlife my dad brought home to nurse back to health, including a baby deer and a raccoon. We even had gerbils, hamsters, parakeets, and fish. Caring for animals has been part of daily life from the time I was born. I’ve lived with large breeds such as Great Pyrenees, Bernese Mountain Dogs; as well as energetic breeds like Australian Shepherds, Chows, and mixed breeds, so I’m very comfortable with big dogs and strong personalities. Family members with smaller dogs regularly relied on me for care, and for the past ten years I’ve house- and dog-sat for an elderly family friend. I’m attentive, patient, and observant, especially with animals that are nervous, aging, or need a calm presence. As a large, steady person, I’m confident handling big dogs on walks and in new situations, and I’m just as comfortable providing gentle, consistent care for smaller pets. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I structure my days from home. I’m used to planning around feeding schedules, walks, litter care, and regular check-ins throughout the day. This allows me to be consistent, present, and flexible with visits, walks, or overnight stays, and to give pets real attention rather than rushing through care. I provide care in my client’s home so pets can stay in the space they know. I follow their established routine closely with feeding, walks, litter care, medications if needed, and regular attention. I keep the home tidy, watch for behavior changes, and keep owners updated. With my own cats, I manage specialized diets, daily litter and cleaning, social time, and close observation of their health and behavior. I’ve cared for some of them from birth and have also supported pets through illness and end-of-life stages. That experience carries into how I care for every animal: patient, attentive, and respectful of their comfort and needs.

About: I grew up on a farm where caring for animals was part of everyday life from a very young age. It wasn’t just about having pets; I was actually responsible for their care. I also grew up with a black Lab and have 14+ years of experience caring for other people’s dogs, from small dogs to large breeds with all kinds of personalities, energy levels, and routines. I’m comfortable with crates, feeding schedules, oral medications, and different leashes and harnesses. I follow instructions closely, but I’m also confident thinking on my feet when something unexpected comes up. One of my biggest strengths is attention to detail. I notice the small things, like changes in behavior, body language, energy, appetite, or surroundings, and try to anticipate issues before they become problems. Every dog is different, and I take the time to learn what’s normal for yours. I know how much trust it takes to leave your dog and home with someone else, and I take that seriously. I’ll respect your routine, communicate openly, and send plenty of photos and updates so you always know how things are going. My availability is currently very flexible, and I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine. My schedule is currently very flexible, so I’m available throughout the week for walks, drop-ins, and house sitting. I’m happy to work around your pet’s established routine and can accommodate different schedules and care needs. Safety and trust come first when I’m caring for someone else’s pet. I’m calm, attentive, and respectful of the routines and boundaries you have in place for your dog. I’ll follow your care instructions closely, keep an eye on their behavior and surroundings, and never make assumptions about what your dog needs or is comfortable with. I’ll also treat your home with the same care and respect I would want someone to show mine.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Santa Ana
Nao did an amazing job walking our dog, Morty. She was prompt with great communication and she was able to take our request on short notice around the holidays. Morty really liked her and we got so many cute photos of the walk. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Nao again!

Sabrina did a great job taking out my Milo. The communication with her was amazing and she often sent me pictures of what he was doing. Sabrina also went above and beyond her Duty by making sure Milo had water in its bowl and making sure that she communicated with me efficiently. I will definitely be booking her again.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your walker interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
