Doggy Day Care University Park

About: I have a small dog and love taking him out for walks and playtime. If your dog joins us, they’ll have a buddy to play with and won’t feel lonely. I provide a safe, clean, and loving home, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs. This is something I do not only to earn a little extra, but also to stay active and happy 😊 Your dog will be well cared for like my own! I have a flexible schedule and spend a lot of time at home. I usually take my dog out for walks daily, and your dog can join us for walks, playtime, and outdoor activities. I make sure dogs get enough exercise, attention, and rest throughout the day. I can also follow your dog’s usual routine if needed. I provide a safe, clean, and loving home environment. I have a friendly dog who can keep your dog company, so they won’t feel lonely. I always supervise dogs during playtime and make sure they are comfortable and well cared for. I follow any specific instructions you provide and treat every dog like my own.

“Our lil furry baby loved Diana as well as the rest of her family! She came home everyday exhausted from all the playing and walkies which made my life easier! I definitely recommend her 10/10 could not have asked for a better dog sitter. She was super communicative and sent multiple updates throughout the day (which is helpful for anxious parents). They even went on adventures to the beach and to different parks and I was truly grateful for all the love she showed my lil fur child. She was truly AMAZING!”

“Hanah is wonderful & took such good care of my boy, Bruce. She’s a very good communicator & would send updates through out the day. Bruce got along with Evan & had such a good day. I was so happy with her care, I already booked additional days with them. They took the stress out of my day by caring so well for my boy. Very happy with Rover for helping me to find them.”

“I appreciate Joshua's quick communicating on short notice. We were able to have a nice chat when I dropped off my dogs and make sure everything was okay with his 2 dogs. My booking that day was a pretty long one and he had no problem stepping up to help out. He also took my dogs out for a run, even though I did not ask that from him because it was above and beyond. He happily met my request for extra precaution to block off/shore up the perimeter on the side of house because I was a little concerned about the gate/fence latch that had 1 fastener loose. After I picked my Huskies up late evening, they were even more calm than usual about coming home and winding down for bedtime. Whatever magic Joshua worked, it was much appreciated!”

“Ning was amazing!! So sweet and kind and took amazing care of my little puppy. Really appreciated how thorough she was with disinfecting her place and ensuring a designated safe spot for my puppy who isn't full vaccinated yet. Will definitely hire her again!”

“Happy to have Neha take care of Hope today! She was super fast to reply and accept the request, probably the fastest I’ve ever experienced on Rover lol. She sent us a bunch pictures throughout the day. Including napping photos lol, which means Hope felt right at home. Neha lives in a lovely area in Irvine so you’ll instantly feel secure for the environment for your dog too. Will definitely book with Neha again if we’re in the area!”

“So happy! Rebecca and Tom, Thank you both so much for taking such good care of our little loaf, Olive! She seemed very much at home at your place, and we are so glad it worked well for all of you. We really appreciate all the images and updates you provided. Looking forward to leaving Olive with you both again. Best regards,”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 15. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk and feed their pets. I’m currently semi retired part time working as CPA. Im available all week days morning to pick up your dogs to walk and feed as you need. I can walk or run to Woodbridge Lake . If your dog needs extra run on week days, Im a perfect match on your dog.

“Our pup came home happy and tired, it definitely looked like she had a fun day at Doug’s! He took her out on walks and she got to hang out with other dogs. Pickup & dropoff were easy and Doug was very friendly.”

About: I have hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats, including daily walks, feeding schedules, medication if needed, and companionship. I am very attentive to each pet’s routine and personality and always prioritize their comfort, safety, and well-being. I work remotely, which allows me to be home most of the day and easily incorporate pet care into my daily routine. This means I can provide consistent attention, timely feedings, check-ins, and companionship throughout the day. Because I work from home, I am able to closely monitor pets and ensure they are safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I follow all instructions carefully, maintain a clean environment, and provide calm, attentive care.

“Michelle took very good care of our dog. She took our dog on lots of walks and took the time to learn our dog's personality. She is patient and great with dogs. She also gave us regular updates with pictures, which we really appreciated. Our dog loves Michelle and is excited to stay with her each time!”

“Shannon watched my dog all day and into the evening. She was great and kept me informed throughout the day. My dog gets nervous around other dogs and she was able to keep him calm and happy. I would highly recommend Shannon to care for your fur baby!”

Bonnie S.

“Krystina did awesome job. She’s a fabulous dog sitter. Easy to communicate, and Charlie + Aggie had a great time together. Thank you so much for the help!”

“Karla was great with our little Harley. Luckily we were able to get Karla to watch Harley last minute due to an emergency. Will use her again if we’re ever down in OC.”

About: I used to work at an animal hospital and have attended formal training on pet care. I’ve been a pet lover all my life. Caring for animals is my passion! I work from home full-time so I have constant presence around the pets I babysit. My 7yo female (spayed) Calico stays with me and loves having access to me all day, and if you have a social pet, then I’m here for them too! I know which stuff are bad for pets so you’re guaranteed a safe stay with us. I am home all day so there will be constant care and guidance

“Hannah was great! She sent updates and pics for us throughout the night and she was very personable. Avenger seemed like he had a great time when we picked him up.”

About: I’m an experienced animal lover with a deep understanding of pets of all kinds—big, small, young, old, and everything in between! I’ve raised over 35 dogs of various breeds, from French poodles and huskies to Yorkies and golden retrievers, as well as countless cats with unique personalities. I’ve potty-trained dogs to scratch the door when they need to go outside and even trained puppies using creative methods like sound cues and treats. While I’m not a certified trainer, my psychology background helps me understand animal behavior, whether it’s picking up on quiet signals or working with more vocal pets. I’ve also cared for senior pets with complex needs, like those with ear infections or watery eyes, always prioritizing cleanliness, proper feeding, and constant attention. I believe every animal has a unique personality, and I adjust my care to fit their needs—whether it’s giving a quiet senior cat space or keeping an energetic puppy entertained. With my hands-on experience, creative approach, and love for all animals, your pets will be in great hands with me! As a full-time UCI student, small business owner, and Sephora employee, I thrive on productivity and time management. While my schedule sounds busy, I’m motivated and happiest when I have plenty to do—especially when it involves caring for animals! I’m available Monday mornings (except 9–10 AM), Monday and Wednesday evenings, as well as Saturday and Sunday nights. My Sephora schedule varies, but I typically work Saturdays, Fridays, or Sundays, and I’m always happy to adjust my availability to prioritize pet care. With advance notice, I can easily make time on weekends or other days, ensuring your pets get the attention they deserve! When caring for pets at a client’s home, my priority is to follow your instructions and make sure your pet feels safe and loved. I’ll ask detailed questions to understand your pet’s personality, needs, and routine, ensuring their care aligns with what they’re used to. Safety is always my top concern—your pet will always be in sight, on a leash when necessary, and given plenty of attention if they’re interactive. For pets who prefer space, I’ll ensure they’re comfortable while keeping a close eye on them. I’ll respect any household rules, like keeping pets off furniture, and stick to areas where you feel most comfortable. If needed, I can clean up after them, provide baths, or brush their fur (though I don’t do haircuts). I also have a sweet, friendly calico cat who’s great with dogs and cats, so if you’re open to it, I can even help your pet socialize. Whether your pet needs playtime, supervision, or extra care, I’m here to provide loving and personalized attention!

About: I’ve cared for my Pembroke Welsh Corgi since he was 10 weeks old, and he is now almost five. I enrolled him in puppy classes, established a consistent daily routine, and have always stayed on top of his veterinary care, vaccinations, checkups, grooming, exercise, and enrichment. Raising him from puppyhood taught me how much patience, consistency, attention, and affection dogs need. I can also administer oral medication and am comfortable caring for dogs of all breeds and sizes. I maintain a highly flexible schedule, so i’m readily available for midday walks and drop-in visits, boarding, and house sitting. I can easily accommodate last-minute, same-day appointments. I plan my day around each dog’s usual feeding, potty, walking, medication, and bedtime routine. During boarding or house sitting, dogs may be left alone for up to three hours at a time, depending on their individual needs. Please let me know if your dog requires more frequent supervision before booking. I live with my boyfriend and our Pembroke Welsh Corgi in an apartment with a large patio. Guest dogs are welcome on our furniture and beds, and I do my best to make them feel like part of the family. Dogs are always supervised while using the patio. For boarding, I require a meet-and-greet with my Corgi so we can make sure the dogs are comfortable together. I follow each owner’s instructions carefully, keep dogs leashed outside, monitor interactions, and maintain their established routines. When house sitting or completing drop-in visits, I will treat your home respectfully and make sure it is secured when I leave. I’m also happy to provide regular photos and updates.

“very sweet and welcoming. they were bilingual and very understanding regarding pick up time. we needed a last minute booking that same day and they provided quick responses and great pricing. would definitely recommend.”

About: I used to raise a corgi and have 4 years of experience caring for both dogs and cats. I often help friends with walking, feeding, and checking in on their pets, so I’m very comfortable with different sizes and personalities. I’m patient, gentle, and treat every pet like my own. I always pay close attention to their safety, routines, and comfort. I currently work part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule for pet care. I’m available most weekdays and weekends for dog walks and drop in visits. I always plan my day so your pet can get consistent attention and care. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always follow your instructions closely and keep your pet’s routine steady. I pay attention to safety, make sure doors stay securely closed, and give updates with photos during every visit so you can feel confident and informed.
