“Megan was amazing to my fur babies! I was nervous to leave them alone, and not only did she take amazing care of them, but she would send cute little pictures of them. I will for sure be booking Megan again!”


“Tonia was amazing! She kept me updated with how my cat was doing and sent pictures with each visit! She understood my cat's needs and would play and cuddle with her depending on what my cat felt like that day. I would highly recommend Tonia as she is a very intuitive pet sitter and gave me peace of mind when I was out of town.”


“I booked Chelsea's services for a VRBO we rented for our son's graduation. From the start, Chelsea was easy to work with, flexible and friendly. We had her visit every day for 7 days, culminating in a 10 hour stay on graduation day. She was great with our dog, understanding his quirky needs and following instructions to the T! Our dog was happy to see her every day, which was a huge relief for me when we had to go away for those 10 hours. I would not hesitate to book Chelsea again the next time we're in Southern California and need dog-sitting services. She is awesome!”


“Ally was attentive and sent lots of pictures and notes. She is a great communicator! Always getting back to us promptly. She took initiative and helped keep the cats space clean by sweeping near the litter box without being asked! We will definitely bring using her services again”


“Lyndsey was so accommodating and such a good caretaker for our puppy. She was flexible with timing and followed all of our requests while she stayed at our house. She sent a bunch of photos and videos without us having to ask and was very communicative. I definitely plan to work with Lyndsey again!”


About: I’ve had doggies all my life. I currently have a 4 year old miniature Aussie who is extremely spoiled and loved. His name is Dusty. He’s very friendly and welcoming. Also have our yellow dilute Australian Shepherd. He’s a rescue and hes already sooooo loved. He’s more on the shy side. I've had a lot of experience dog sitting for friends. I absolutely love all animals, but dogs are my favorite. I was responsible for grooming and caring for a large black lab throughout the last 6 years. I also have had some experience with puppies, senior dogs and providing medication to pups if needed. I work from home from 5am to 1:30pm, Monday through Friday. This gives me the flexibility to spend quality time with my little Aussies and your little ball of fur! I would be able to care for pets overnight, take them on morning and evening walks and spend time playing with them. I'm available during the day also on weekends. In my client's home I would provide attentive care to the pets and spend a lot of playing with them. My home has a a large yard for the doggies which they will have access to go all day long through a doggie door so they can play. The yard is gated and is kept locked for their security. I am only 5-10 minutes away from Disney, the Angels stadium, and the Honda Center🎡🎠🎢 I’m excited to help care , love and play with your fur babies. I work from home so my schedule is very flexible and your doggie will never be left alone for longer than it would take me do the normal grocery store runs. I have a large yard for the doggies who have access to the yard if wanted with a doggie door. Gate stays locked so people can’t simply walk in. We also have a crate for added safety and comfort for your doggies needs.

About: Due to my easy-going and gentle nature, I’ve always had an easy time gaining animals ’trust and building relationships with them. They hold a special place in my heart and love to keeping them company!🐶🐱🐔 As a full-time online student, I am able to stop by whenever needed! I am also available to stay at residences as long as there is a stable internet connection! I am able to offer outside time and potty breaks whenever needed as well as walks/jogs for energetic pups, meal times, and playtime for your pets!

About: Hi everyone! I care for many pets for my friends and family. I am currently a student in a CNA program and hope to provide the best care for your best animal friend! Luckily, I am able to care for your furry friend before my classes and in the afternoon after my courses. Although I am in school, I will always make the time to tend to your paw pal and make them my top priority. I have many exotic animals such as turtles, exotic aquarium friends, a crested gecko, and a leopard gecko. Unfortunately, I do not own any furry friends of my own currently as I still reside with my parents and they do not allow fur in the household. BUT this doesn't stop me from surrounding myself with fur babies! I am constantly pet sitting for friends and family!

About: I have lived with 4 dogs and 5 cats in my time, and I had a hand in taking care of all of them. You can trust me to treat your pets with love and respect. I currently work at a school, so over the summer I have plenty of time to spend taking care of and enriching the lives of your pets. I love going on long walks, and I'm used to wrangling dogs in a pinch, so you can count on me to take good care of your animals and keep them out of harms way.

About: For the past 20 years, I’ve been a dedicated pet parent, dog lover, and the go-to sitter for friends, family, and neighbors. I grew up around dogs and have cared for pups of all sizes, ages, and temperaments—from energetic puppies to sweet seniors needing extra TLC. Currently, I’m the proud mom of a black tri Australian Shepherd (aka my shadow and adventure buddy), so I know firsthand how important it is to trust the person caring for your dog. I’m experienced with high-energy breeds, leash training, structured routines, and of course, keeping pups mentally stimulated and emotionally happy. Over the years, I’ve handled everything from daily walks and enrichment play to administering medication, managing food sensitivities, and calming anxious dogs during storms or fireworks. Whether it’s long hikes, potty breaks, or snuggle time on the couch, I genuinely love caring for animals and treat every pup like they’re family. Dogs have always been a big part of my life, so caring for pups fits naturally into my week. I’m all about consistency—regular walks, playtime, and plenty of affection to keep tails wagging. Even while between jobs, I make sure to dedicate focused, quality time to each dog I care for, treating them like family. Whether it’s an energetic walk or some chill cuddle time, I adapt to what your dog needs and love being that reliable, caring presence in their day. Basically, I’m here to make sure your dog feels happy, safe, and spoiled while you’re away. I like to keep things simple and stress-free when I’m caring for pets in their own space. I offer dog walks, drop-ins, and hangouts where I focus on giving your pet attention and sticking to their routine. Feeding, fresh water, and potty breaks are all part of it—whatever your pet needs to feel safe and happy. I’m experienced with giving medication on schedule and don’t mind helping with baths when needed. I treat every pet like they’re my own—relaxed, loved, and well cared for while you’re away.

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover with 15+ years of hands-on experience, from raising my own pups (a chihuahua and a shih tzu!) to caring for friends’ and neighbors’ pets like they’re family. I’m based in Orange County and treat every dog like my own—whether that’s long walks, belly rubs, or just chill time. Reliable, loving, and always down for a pup playdate. 🐶💖 Pet care fits perfectly into my part-time schedule. I make sure there’s plenty of love, play, and walks during the day so your pup feels happy and cared for. With 15+ years of dog mom experience, I get how important routine and attention are. I’m also around evenings and weekends, so I can flex to your schedule and keep your furry friend comfy and loved. 🌴🐾 I’m comfortable caring for pets both in my home and at your home, whichever works best for you and your furry friend. If your pup stays with me, I create a calm, loving environment with plenty of attention, playtime, and routine—just like I do with my own dogs. I have experience with small breeds like Chihuahuas and Shih Tzus, as well as larger breeds like Golden Retrievers and Labradors, so I understand the unique needs of all sizes and personalities. If I’m caring for pets at your home, I follow your routine closely to keep things familiar and stress-free for your pet. I’ll provide walks, play, feeding, and lots of love, while making sure your home stays clean and secure while you’re away. Either way, your pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness are my top priorities. 🐾

About: I have pet sat for numerous close friends since I was in high school. Not to mention, my best memories come from my two 4 legged friends Indy and Chewie, who I have grown up with for the past 15 years. Indy is an Australian Sheppard and Chewie is an 3-legged rescue Chihuahua. They have taught me patience, empathy, and kindness. Although, my best experience was when I looked after a newborn puppy for the family I was nannying. I helped feed, walk, and train this puppy for well over a year. I even pet sat for the family and spent long weekends with their puppers. My favorite part was going on walks because it brough Chase (their dog) and I closer together! I currently work part-time at Disneyland and have a very flexible availability. The days that work best for me are Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, and Sunday. I am free all day! I have an apartment on the second level. My apartment is quite huge and I share it with only one other person who is a huge dog person. We have a lovely courtyard area where dogs are able to relieve themselves.

About: When I was 10, my mom got me a puppy and I trained and walked him every day. I took care of him throughout his life. I love being around dogs and giving them a great walking experience. I'm currently working part time, so I am available on most mornings and weekends. I'm flexible, so just let me know what you need and we can make it work. I focus on safety, fun, and giving them the exercise and enrichment they need. Communication is key, so I can always provide updates and photos to keep you in the loop.

About: I had 3 dogs growing up, One was Loud, One was sick, One needed constantly grooming. I took care of all their needs until it was their time to go. I only have to go in person for my college classes during Tuesdays, but as finals are coming up I will have more time during the summer. I can play, groom, feed, water and give them sunlight in my backyard. I do have rather a small two story house so smaller dogs are preferred to ensure their quality of life.

About: I used to have a German shepherd, a shih tzu, and two pugs when I lived with family. I now have decided not to keep any pets because I live in an apartment but would still love to make some new friends with cute puppies ☺️ I work from home with very flexible schedule. I enjoy being outdoorsy especially during the day. I’m also personally very used to going on walks due to my past experiences with my dogs (especially the German shepherd - lots of running :) I would provide the dogs with regular exercise depending on their weight and size, monitor their health and wellbeing prior, during, and after walks, ensure they are hydrated, maintain their safety at any time, and keep the owner’s property clean and secure.

“Eric did an excellent job of taking care of our two dogs when we were on vacation. Very nice guy, fast communication.definitely we will be booking again.I’m so satisfied with the service he provided. Thanks Eric.”


“First of, Gloria is the sweetest and very helpful since it's our first time using the app. Cali had an awesome time with her. On time and kept me updated with their drop in/walk. Will definitely have Gloria again to sit for Cali.”
