About: I’m the friend who always gets the "can you watch my dog?" call because I’ve been around pups of all shapes and sizes since I was five. That lifetime of experience means I’m just as comfortable keeping up with a rambunctious puppy as I am providing a calm, gentle environment for a sweet senior who needs a little extra patience. Pet care fits perfectly into my active lifestyle. My days already revolve around long walks and staying moving, so your pup becomes my dedicated plus-one for every adventure. My schedule is flexible, and when I’m with your pet, they are my main priority—I treat their routine with the same care and focus I give my own. I treat your home and your pet with the same respect I’d want for my own. Whether we're hanging out at my place or yours, I focus on creating a secure, "paws-on" environment where routines are followed strictly so your pet feels safe. I’m all about clear updates and total transparency, so you can relax knowing they’re in good, experienced hands.

About: I grew up with many pets and regularly walk my own dogs. I have also had experience taking care of a dog with no bladder control, constant urinary tract infections, and the need to be manually expressed. I am very comfortable taking care of both big and small dogs. I not only have experience with dogs but have also housesitted for a household with five cats. I’m currently attending University of California, Irvine while also working in a research lab, so I’m used to balancing a structured schedule and staying organized. I’m also very active as a member of the triathlon team at UCI, which means I already spend a lot of time outdoors and love going on morning and evening walks or runs. Caring for pets is something I genuinely enjoy, and incorporating walks, playtime, feeding, and quality attention into my day feels very natural for me. While walking your dog, I will carry water and a small bowl and ensure your pet's comfort. For housesitting, I can easily take instructions and provide a safe environment for your pet.

About: I grew up with 5 dogs and 2 cats, so caring for animals has always been a huge part of my life! I genuinely love spending time with every fur baby — whether that’s going on walks, playing, giving cuddles, or just keeping them company and making them feel safe and loved while you’re away. I am currently a student at UCI living on campus! I have a car and a pretty flexible schedule throughout the week, which makes it easy for me to fit pet care into my daily routine. I love spending time outdoors, so walks, playtime, and giving pets attention honestly feels more fun than work to me. I’m very responsible with my time and make sure every pet gets the care, attention, and love they deserve. Since I live in an apartment that does not allow pets, I currently offer care in my client’s home through walks, drop-in visits, and house sitting. I always make sure pets feel comfortable, safe, and cared for in their familiar environment. I follow each owner’s instructions closely when it comes to feeding, walks, playtime, medications, routines, and anything else their pet may need. I also love giving pets lots of attention, affection, and companionship while their owners are away!

I got regular updates, photos, and messages, which really reassured me that my dog was happy and well cared for. When I came back, my dog was relaxed and clearly had been treated with lots of love and attention. I would absolutely recommend Jared to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter. I’ll definitely be booking with him again!

Sahba absolutely came to our rescue when a previously booked sitter canceled on us at the very last minute. Despite the short notice, he arrived promptly and immediately put our minds at ease. He watched our home for several nights and took wonderful care of our two cats and our high-strung little dog. Anyone with a nervous pup knows how important the right energy is, and Sahba handled her perfectly. We really appreciated his communication throughout the stay; he sent regular updates and photos, which allowed us to actually relax knowing everyone was in good hands. We highly recommend Sahba for anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and communicative sitter. We will definitely be calling him again!

We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! From the moment we met, it was clear how much She genuinely care about animals. She took the time to learn our dog’s routine, personality, and little quirks, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Throughout the stay, we received regular updates, photos, and messages, which made it easy to relax knowing our dog was happy, safe, and well cared for. It was obvious our dog was getting plenty of attention, exercise, and love. When we returned, everything was just as we left it, and our dog was calm, content, and clearly well taken care of. It’s such a relief to find someone we trust completely with our pet. We would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable, kind, and attentive dog sitter—and we will definitely be booking with them again!

About: I grew up around dogs, I currently have one of my own. I consistently walk neighbors, dogs, and overnight them if needed. I know how to deal with senior dogs, adults and puppies. I know how to administer medication and I know how to train the little ones. I volunteered an animal shelter, so I work with all different types of personalities and no task is too big! I am currently on summer break and available all day! I do have work here and there but shifts are no more then 4-6 hours long. I will not be putting pets in my own home, but preferably if I am staying in your home, I would like detailed instructions on how you take care of your fur baby just to make the whole entire experience smoother for them and for me.

Kelsy was fantastic! We had to take some time off from our pup of 9 months, 3 year old and our friends 6 year old dogs to just get some dinner and had Kelsy sit all 3. She was more than willing and called it a Pawty! And the dogs had a blast. All 3 of our dogs are different people and personalities and she was able to handle all of them really well and oh btw, they aint small either at 100, 60 and 60 lbs each. She was fantastic to communicate and connect with and we would love to have her sit the pups and the bigs when we travel to Laguna! Cant recommend highly enough! Thank you Kelsy!

Absolutely fantastic. She House/Cat sat for us and was very communicative, sent lots of photos, gave us many updates, and left the house immaculate. We can tell if a cat sitter hasn’t done their job because our cat gets stress dreadlocks. Our cat was incredibly happy and his coat was perfect when we got home. She also took him on his leash walks which made him extra happy. Highly recommended.

Our Shiba Inu is a feisty, challenging dog to take care of. After trying numerous boarding homes to no avail, we reluctantly turned to a sitter. Fortunately, we were lucky enough to find Bella! She went out of her way to make sure our Shiba was comfortable and took such great care of him in our absence. When we returned, he acted like we never left. Bella is professional, kind, courteous, and demonstrated immense expertise in her handling of our puppy. We cannot recommend Bella enough!

Hong was great! I had a last minute booking request and I have never used her before so I was a bit nervous. She also doesn’t speak English so I wasn’t sure if it’ll go well. However, she used a Translation app and communication was not a problem at all. She made sure I was always up to date with how Roux was doing and made me feel so comfortable. I always felt like I knew what Roux was doing. I highly recommend her!
