“Cienya did a wonderful job taking care of my dog, Charlie. She is very personable and easy going. Her home has a perfect backyard for doggies to play and enjoy the outdoors safely. She took Charlie on walks and sent pictures daily. Charlie seemed very relaxed and happy in her home. I will gladly rebook when needed in the future.”
“Steph was by far the best rover experience we’ve ever had. She took such good care of Fozzie, they went on adventures, she sent us updates all the time, even sent us home with a treat bag and report card on Fozzie. Would 10/10 recommend Steph she truly treated Fozzie like family and we were so happy with his stay.”
“We couldn’t be happier with the care our dog received from this wonderful couple. They truly went above and beyond—taking him on long walks every day and treating him like one of their own. Our pup came back happy, relaxed, and clearly well loved. They also shared lots of photos throughout, which gave us peace of mind and made us feel connected while we were away. Highly recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy, attentive, and caring dog sitters!”
“Kelleen was great. Communicative and accessible. She sent text photo updates which are always appreciated. I felt that my dog was a welcome guest in her home. Thanks.”

“Kelly and her family were great. She sent us constant text and video updates that were very appreciated. She was very easy to communicate with and helped coordinate or semi-complicated drop off. Our dog got plenty of exercise and she was with Kelly. Thanks so much for taking such good care! 100% will always be a returning client.”

“My wife and I booked with Banafshe for a long weekend trip, after our go-to dog sitter was unavailable. We are happy we did. Before the sit, Banafshe was courteous and timely in replying to our handful of messages with questions. She was gracious enough to allow us to bring Huxley over for a quick meetup with her and her lovely family), before the scheduled stay. Banafshe followed up with us the day of to confirm what time we would be dropping Huxley off. Unexpectedly, our pup had a tooth pulled prior to the boarding, and Banafshe was very helpful in ensuring Huxley received his medication (in his food). Throughout the time of the boarding she provided thoughtful updates and photos and was very responsive. She checked in with us to confirm when we would be picking up Huxley and made sure his items we left with her, were in his bag. 10/10. We would trust her and her family with our furbaby again and I highly recommend. 🥰”
“I can’t say thank you enough! This was the best experience for my puppy. We were heart broken to leave him for the first time but felt so calm and reassured when we dropped him off. Thank you😊”
“Pam is amazing and took great care of our 7 yr old English bull dog Coco. Coco loved her dog Rebel as well and the picture of Rebel walking Coco with her leash in her mouth was special! Pam and Rebel are our new home away from home for Coco ♥️”

“Amy took wonderful care of our kitty while we were away. Everything looked great upon our return and our kitty was happy and content. She provided pictures and updates at every visit (2 visits a day) and we couldn’t be happier with everything. She genuinely cares about doing a great job and it really comes through.”
“Amisha is caring and highly competent. Our kitty scratched herself from anxiety while we were gone. Even though Kara initially tried hiding, Amisha was able to get Kara’s nails cut, give her a dose of CBD, play and cuddle with Kara. Kara didn’t warm up to several sitters. When Amisha came over to meet her, Kara came downstairs and went right to to Amisha to happily be petted. Amisha is the best we’ve hired through Rover.”
“Jennifer was an amazing last minute sitter for my 2 kitties! I was already out of town and she was able to drop in on Dave and Sweetpea for a few days with 0 issues! Very good communicator and very flexible :)”
“Breena did such a wonderful taking care of my 3 kitties while I was away for a week. I felt comfortable with her from our first meeting. I could tell that she knows cats and loves cats. She even came in when she was not feeling well one day. She is very responsible and my suspicious cats warmed up to her quickly. I would not hesitate to book her again in the future.”
“Christina is the best - this is the second time she’s cared for our cat, and we felt so comfortable knowing our shy cat was in good hands. Very mature, dependable and good with cats. Not to mention good photographer catching fleeting adorable moments! Thank you Christina!!”
“Isabel was the absolute best! Prompt, communicative and so incredibly kind. This was our first dog sitting experience outside of friends and family and she truly eased any fears we had. Would recommend her 1000x over! Thank you, Isabel!”
About: Hi! My name is Kaitlin- I’m a 30- something moving to Dana Point to be with my fiance. I’m a clinical pharmacist studying for my law exam to become licensed here. In the mean-time I’d like something to keep me busy, put a smile on my face and keep my golden doodle socialized (when or if desired). This is something we did back in Texas in our free time through a different platform. My time in the hospital has made me sensitive to medically complex animals that need more TLC. I’m also an avid distance runner so we can get some miles in for more active breeds. I will follow up to make an activity plan of what exactly we will do with our time together. I’m open to a pre-visit meet and greet. It is hard to leave our precious cargo with just anyone. MSG us- we’re available! Hi!

“We are so thrilled to have found Kari. She was the absolute perfect person to care for our kitty who was recovering from post-surgery complications. We were nervous to leave Simba after everything that happened to him recently, but Kari assuaged all of our fears. Kari took such great care of him, following his annoyingly strict medicine and food schedule. She watched for any litterbox issues. She stayed in constant contact with us and sent so many photos showing us how happy Simba was to have her there. Kari also left our house in immaculate condition and brought in packages. We are so grateful to have found such an amazing sitter and can't wait for her to care for Simba in the future! Thank you, Kari!”

When we work from home, we can take regular breaks outdoors which allow us to board and or walk your dogs. We prefer caring for pets in our home. We like to pet proof the home to be void of potential toxins or physical danger. We live a very routined lifestyle so will find it very easy to fit your dog’s routine into our life style.

About: The reflection of a person reflects how a domesticated animal will come to be. Thoughts like these make me want to understand more of why we were put on this world. Animals make me happy. They do things so flowingly and naturally and it’s so unique because it’s so simple. They don’t want to do it, they just do it. Each dog and cat all have their quirks and differences which is why they are so special to me being that all animals are special as well. These thoughts and experiences help me into exploring more of what I want to be as a person with animals and how this could help me to become what I aspire in being and beyond. I go to the gym almost everyday about an hour and a half. I go out most of the weekends usually between 2pm to 1am. 3 adults also live in our household and they already take care of most of the pets in our household. Every single moment counts as animals are in every single moment as well since they are being. To this moment I am still learning to understand all of my pets, they all have their differences and that is what I love so much. I have be different with each one. Adapting is such a big challenge for me because it can require a vast amount of patience and effort. Sometimes things will not go the way you want it to and that’s ok. There will always be another moment to try. These thoughts and reasons are what I want to apply when I’m studying new animals and how I can gain their trust.

“Highly recommend! Thank you for making it possible for us to bring our boy with us on vacation and enjoy the amenities of the hotel and snuggle our pup at night! I really appreciate the pictures that you sent throughout the day.”
“Teresa was wonderful. She communicated in a timely way and was very kind. She is so calming and even my anxious dogs were able to relax with her. She played with my energetic 1yo pup and both pups got plenty of sunshine with her in her back yard.”
About: For 18+ years, I have cared for dogs--not only the family dogs (rescues included), but for others who have needed help with walking or overnight stays. I am retired, so my time is very flexible. I can easily flex my schedule as needed. I have great experience walking dogs in Laguna Beach. I give each dog the personal attention they need as I can easily fit care in throughout my week. I am happy to walk your dog in the Laguna Beach neighborhood. I have a nice area in my yard for dogs that is fenced in where I can throw balls or frisbees or a toy of choice, if you prefer for me to watch them at my house during the walk or playtime.
“So grateful for Brenda! We needed a last minute sitter for our pup due to a cancellation and I don’t think we could’ve picked anyone better. She was so welcoming! Our pup loved her and her family and Brenda updated us throughout the day along with pictures! Highly recommend and I would definitely book her again.”

It does not have grass but we have a 47x32in. artificial grass mat for potty breaks. The condo has stairs as well.

About: Hi! I’m Bree. I’ve always had animals in my life, and I genuinely love being around them. I currently have two cats of my own, and I’ve lived with several roommates’ dogs over the years, which means I’ve spent a lot of time caring for different breeds, personalities, and energy levels. I’ve learned how to read their moods, understand their needs, and make them feel comfortable and safe. I also have a close friend who is a professional pet trainer, and I often ask them for advice whenever I want to make sure I’m doing what’s best for the pets I care for. Because of that, I get the benefit of expert insight along with real-world, hands-on experience. My approach is simple: I’ll treat your pets like I treat my own. I’ll talk to them, I’ll be patient with them, I’ll respect their boundaries, and I’ll make sure they feel loved and listened to. Whether it’s a gentle walk, a playful outing, or some quiet company at home, I’ll show up for them every single time. I work part time and go to school part time so I have mornings & afternoons free Monday-Thursday and after that I do attend school from 5pm-10pm those days. I work 4-10pm on Fridays -Sundays and I am available before and after those hours. I can follow any instructions needed to optimize care for your fur family. I will make sure all doors and cabinets to places they shouldn’t be in are secured and they are always safe.

“We couldn’t be happier with the care our dog received from this wonderful couple. They truly went above and beyond—taking him on long walks every day and treating him like one of their own. Our pup came back happy, relaxed, and clearly well loved. They also shared lots of photos throughout, which gave us peace of mind and made us feel connected while we were away. Highly recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy, attentive, and caring dog sitters!”
“Kelly and her family were great. She sent us constant text and video updates that were very appreciated. She was very easy to communicate with and helped coordinate or semi-complicated drop off. Our dog got plenty of exercise and she was with Kelly. Thanks so much for taking such good care! 100% will always be a returning client.”
“Radhika was wonderful and treated my pup really well. She kept me updated frequently and took many pictures of my boy - he came home really happy! Would highly recommend her boarding service to anyone!”
“Robert and Maria were wonderful! We felt so comfortable as soon as we met them and our dog had great fun and was extremely well cared for. We received pictures, texts and videos while she was in their care. Would definitely use them again!!”
“Claudia did a great job with our dog. She was very easy to communicate with and provided regular updates and pictures which made us feel very confident Chaiya was doing well. Wally, Claudia's border collie, was very sweet and played well with Chaiya.”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs of all sizes, cats, horses, and goats. My first job was at a pet shelter and later on as a veterinary assistant technician. I love taking dogs on long walks and runs. I’m experienced at handling dogs of all sizes and great at reading animal behavior. I have two senior dogs. I work full time but have time during the evenings and weekend to take care of your pet. I have time for drop-ins, walks, and pet sitting. I have a fenced yard and two small old senior dogs who are dog friendly. Even though I have a fenced yard, I think it’s important to walk dogs several times a day to stimulate them.
“Leslie cared for our pup for a week and it went great! We were super happy with her and our dog really liked her as well. We recommend Leslie and would definitely ask her to watch our dog again!”
“Sondra and Kirk are the most amazing pet sitters EVER! I got lots of updates and pictures and Sumo and Gromit were spoiled with so much attention! Our flight home was delayed but Sondra waited up for us to pick up the boys after midnight on Christmas morning! So grateful for them and will definitely book again!”
“My wife and I booked with Banafshe for a long weekend trip, after our go-to dog sitter was unavailable. We are happy we did. Before the sit, Banafshe was courteous and timely in replying to our handful of messages with questions. She was gracious enough to allow us to bring Huxley over for a quick meetup with her and her lovely family), before the scheduled stay. Banafshe followed up with us the day of to confirm what time we would be dropping Huxley off. Unexpectedly, our pup had a tooth pulled prior to the boarding, and Banafshe was very helpful in ensuring Huxley received his medication (in his food). Throughout the time of the boarding she provided thoughtful updates and photos and was very responsive. She checked in with us to confirm when we would be picking up Huxley and made sure his items we left with her, were in his bag. 10/10. We would trust her and her family with our furbaby again and I highly recommend. 🥰”
“I can’t say thank you enough! This was the best experience for my puppy. We were heart broken to leave him for the first time but felt so calm and reassured when we dropped him off. Thank you😊”
“This was our first time leaving Saturn in someone else’s care and we could not be happier with how it went. From start to finish, Beth was wonderful. Communication, meet & greet, logistics of drop off and pick up were as easy as could be. I also loved how she sent us pictures of Saturn while we were away assuring me all was going well. I absolutely recommend her and will be reaching out to her again in the future.”
“So Thankful for the fabulous care Rudy received! He is exhausted from all the fun he had with his new friends! I'm so glad I have such a wonderful home where Rudy can go when I am out of town. I only hope they are available in the future! I loved all the pictures of Rudy and his friends! Thanks!”
“Nicole was so wonderful with our pup! She was so consistent on updates and pictures. Our pup was truly so happy and loved during his stay. He was truly in the best care! We love Nicole!”
“Pam is amazing and took great care of our 7 yr old English bull dog Coco. Coco loved her dog Rebel as well and the picture of Rebel walking Coco with her leash in her mouth was special! Pam and Rebel are our new home away from home for Coco ♥️”
“Karina was so helpful in taking our dogs with short notice. She gave a lot of updates and cared for my pups like they were her own. So grateful for her and her partners (and other doggies) care❤️”
