“Juan was amazing. He’s super friendly and accommodating and he took great care of our dog while we were away for a 10-day trip. She came back happy and I could tell she had a great time staying with him. Highly recommend!!”
“Michael's home is spacious, with a lovely outdoor area for the dogs to play. We appreciated all of the photo updates, and our pup came home happy and relaxed. Omie was well taken care of and can't wait for another playdate!”
“Joy and Zachary are by far the best sitters I’ve had! They agreed to watch my dog very short notice during Christmas, and still provided amazing care with many updates. My dog was very happy with them and is usually extremely anxiously attached to me! I can’t recommend Joy and Zachary enough!”
“Shona was fantastic! She went out of her way to accommodate my schedule, suggesting options I hadn’t thought of. Buster very much enjoyed his stay with her. They took multiple walks, hung out together, and Shona had even already fed him when I picked him up. Of course, she kept me up to date with how their day together progressed. I’ll be using her to care for Buster in the future.”
“Treana went out of her way to care for my two dogs. I needed someone last minute and she was able to help me out. By far the best sitter I’ve experienced, she updated me throughout the day with photos/videos. She was very communicative and responded quick. She took our dogs to the beach. She fed them and was able to give my dog the medicine he needed. Whenever we are in town we will definitely use her again. She exceeded my expectations by far! I felt really comfortable being out all day knowing my dogs were being well cared for so thank you so much!”
“I would highly recommend Jacquelyn! She was very good with both of my young Rhodesian Ridgebacks, she was great with communication and flexibility. This was the first time I had left my young dogs somewhere other than home and with a new person, using positive training methods and a kind heart she set them up for a good experience. We are very grateful!”
“I am so happy to have found Amber! It felt so good to have been able to take care of some much needed appointments, and to have Molly stay in a caring, safe environment was great. She’s truly a terrific dog watcher!!”
“Kayla was very helpful with my pup that has separation anxiety. She provided updates with how he did and was transparent about his anxiety. We will definitely be using her support again :)”
About: While I am fairly new to taking care of others' pets, I have my own 14 year old Beagle back home! In the last several years, she has always been more my dog than the family dog. I also have pet sat for friends and family many times. I love dogs, puppies, cats, and kittens more than the average Joe! I will take great care of your 4 legged children! :) Let your pet responsibilities be my pet responsibilities! I'm currently in online school, and looking for a part time job. For the time being, I am fairly available throughout the week! In the coming months, I likely will be using Rover intermittently between the holidays, work, and school. Back at home, my Lilly has a nice filling breakfast and a little lighter of a dinner. We usually would walk at least once a day, if I had a free day, twice! We play a lot in the backyard - sadly, less as she's gotten older. Now she usually just wanders the house or sits with me while I work on homework. Although, she's very distracting because her sense of humor is almost as good as mine. Admittedly, when I got home from work, my Lilz would get more kisses than my mom! I would treat your pet with the same loving care Lilly gets! I'm a student and a crew member at Trader Joe's, but I would love to spend my days off hangin' out with your pup! I can always try to get in an early mornin' walk before my shifts as well :) The house rules in your home are what goes! I prefer clear communication of any restrictions or allowances your pet has in your home! I would want them to feel as at home as possible!
“Leaving our Sophie with Terri was so great! She treated our sweet girl, Sophie just like we would and her dog, Mr. Greenbeans, got along so well with Sophie! We know she shows love to our puppy dog and have already booked her for our week long vacation in July.”
About: I just love animals. All animals. Dogs, Cats, Monkeys, it doesn’t matter to me. I have taken a peculiar interest toward both domestic and wild animals since I was a Young Buck. It doesn’t matter if your dog is big and intimidating, or small, cute & cuddly, they will all get proper love and attention from me. I can assure that your furry friend(s) and I will get along, and will have a marvelous time doing it. I’ve decided I am going to devote my time toward exceptional quality pet care to the citizens of Orange County. I am free throughout the week. Please book a time through the calendar. If you have any questions about my availability (same day even) please let me know. How does Nick care for your pet? Well, it depends what is going on. If I’m dealing with a 6 month or less puppy, I may have to set some boundaries to make sure the pup is safe when nobody is home (like a pen for example). If I’m dealing with an energetic Belgian Mal, we’re hitting a long and hard walk, or some activity to burn energy. If I’m dealing with a Senior Dog, maybe we can just hang out and enjoy each other’s presence. Caring for dogs is situational. I’m experienced in puppies, mid aged, and senior dogs.
About: I call all dogs “babies”. It would be an honor to watch your baby. My baby just lost a year long battle to heart failure. I am familiar with taking care of a dog with senior needs such as giving medications, helping them up the stairs, making sure they are eating/hydrated. My family had three dogs growing up so I can balance multiple personalities while giving attention to all equally. I currently work from home and have plenty of time to hang out with your babies and give them love. I usually have no more than 3 meetings a day. I live by myself in a condo on the second floor (top floor). There are no other animals in my house. I live next to a walking trail in Bolsa Chica Huntington Beach and can easily walk your dogs at any time
“Rozlyn & her family are great with our two huskies! They are very caring towards them and are able to handle their high energy. Also sent pics during the day of them which was so appreciated! Highly recommend. :)”
“Eleanor was awesome! Great fit for jojo, who is an energetic dog and sometimes it can be overwhelming for people . Eleanor knew how to take care of her perfectly! We will definitely hire her again and recommend 100% to anyone in need!”
About: We were both raised in homes with pets, I have had a Weiner dog (doesn't currently live with us) for the past 4 years and my wife has had a Staffy (pictured) and an American Bull Dog for the past 4 and 7 years respectively. My wife has worked with dog trainers in Italy where she was raised and lived up until around 6 months ago and spends most of her free time training Deli Pietra is currently a stay at home dog mom so the more pets the better! I currently work per diem with a variable schedule so our schedules are very open! We live in a town house in a gated community in Huntington Beach. Our community is quiet, across the street from the beach, and full of dogs. There is a greenery around the community for them to run and play in. Our home has a balcony for pups who love to sun bathe. We also live around 3 miles from Dog Beach in Huntington for those owners who are comfortable with their babies socializing.
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life. I love them. I used to work at a dog rescue where I cared for all types of dog. Now, I walk dogs in Sunset Beach. If you live here, you’ve probably seen me on the green belt or in Bolsa Chica. Reviews from established Sunset Beach clients are available upon request. I’m happy to work around your schedule. Please just give me as much notice as you can. I plan to work with repeat clients so real trust can be built over time. So, please book me quickly if you are looking for a long-term local option. Safety is my #1 priority. Your dog will have a great time with me because I treat them like family. That will give you peace of mind while they are in my care.

She is always prompt with her time and communication, has a fun, jovial attitude and my sweet beagle is always thrilled when she shows up. It’s clear that Giovanna has a love of animals. Her patience and kindness with my dog, Biscuit, has always made me feel confident that I’m leaving her in good hands. Highly recommend!”

Nicholas V.
“Nick was amazing with my Great Dane. Normally, I am hesitant to have people who are not comfortable with large dogs look after my baby boy, but once I saw that Nick was comfortable with a large European doberman (his dog), I figured he could probably handle Bailey. They seemed to have an amazing time, and I am going to hire Nick everytime Bailey needs to be walked or watched over. Cheers.”
Deena S.
“Deena is one of the sweetest and most caring humans I know. On top of her warm, soft, and nurturing energy that makes her one of the handful of people I would trust with my own chihuahua, she also has a ton of experience caring for doggies. Both you and your pups will love being around Deena <3”

Marcus N.
“Marcus regularly cares for my tiny Aussie when I go out of town. He has watched my dog on numerous occasions--and often for an extended period of time. I wouldn't leave my dog, Rocky, with anyone else in Southern California. Rocky is happy, healthy, and not anxious to leave Marcus when I come back to pick him up. Marcus has a way of treating Rocky like a little person rather than an animal and seems to anticipate what Rocky needs. My dog feels comfortable in his home and really loves Marcus. Before I drop Rocky off when we drive up, Rocky immediately will run to get inside to be near Marcus and his family. This is not a usual reaction from my 7-year-old dog when I'm dropping him off for a week in another state. Marcus walks Rocky several times daily, keeps him well-fed, provides a large bowl of water, and shares treats. I never worry about Rocky when I am away if I leave him with Marcus. Marcus sends cute photos of him daily. I am extremely pleased with his service and excellent care of my pet. I recommend Marcus without reservation.”
