“I cannot recommend Bennie and Jennie enough. We sent our two cats to stay with them and I have never been more satisfied with a cat sitter. Their space is very cat friendly, which my cats clearly loved for the many updates we received during their stay. One of our cats needed ear drops twice daily and they were amazing with this-giving them to her with seemingly minimal resistance based on the video and photo updates they sent for each medicine application time. It was clear the cats were comfortable and well taken care of during their stay. We will not hesitate to book again for the next time we need a cat sitter.”
“Thank you for taking such great care of Kuma! He looked very happy and well cared for during his stay. I really appreciated the updates and communication. Would absolutely book again!”
“Ryan sends out lots of photos and video updates and he truly cared for our pup while we had to be away, and accepted our request last minute — very responsive, responsible host. Thank you!!”
“Bridget was absolutely incredible with our boy! She and her family were so kind and caring, and updated us with lots of photos and videos. Our dog unexpectedly fell sick, and she not only immediately notified us, but took him to the emergency vet within minutes. She felt comfortable caring for him at home and he recovered well with her. Our dog became part of the family with her, and we would not hesitate to ask Bridget to watch him again in the future. She is an absolute gem!”
“Wendi was great taking of my senior dog and my new 4 month old puppy. Second time I used Wendi and her husband are great people who take pride and spend time with your dogs.”
“Victoria watched our dog Betsy for a weekend while we were out of town and everything went smoothly! Betsy was very comfortable and Victoria maintained communication daily to give us updates on her! She followed the schedule provided and took wonderfully care of Betsy!”
“Hanah & Dabin took such great care of our rescue dog Lilo during her first 2-week boarding stay 🥹💕 Since she’s a rescue, she can be pretty fearful and shy in new environments, so we were honestly nervous leaving her for that long for the first time. They sent us lots of photo/video updates, were incredibly patient and warm with her, and made us feel so at ease the whole time. It was so comforting seeing Lilo slowly open up and enjoy herself 🐶 We’re super grateful for all the love and care they gave her, and we’d absolutely book with them again!! 💛”
“Hazel was well taken care of by Doug! He was very flexible with our drop off and pick up times. She went on plenty of walks and slept well when she got back home. I will be using Doug in the future!”
“Annie and her husband are down to Earth people with gentle souls, we immediately felt welcomed into their spotless home. I just felt it in my heart that she was “the one” to care for our little Buddy a senior dog. I received daily email updates and the sweetest photos of our dog napping peacefully as well as a cute photo shoot commercial, yes a commercial shoot. We will definitely use Annie again, when we can’t take our dog on vacation with is. Peace of mind is priceless, thank you Annie for allowing us to enjoy our little getaway knowing that Buddy was being well cared for and safe. Will definitely rebook.”

“Suman is a phenomenal sitter. She’s very responsive, sends plenty of photos and updates. My flight got delayed and had no issues accommodating and early drop off and a later pick-up. Turks and I will use her services again and again. Her daughter also took special care to give my baby love too!”
“Our two pups, Lola and BB, love Thavery! Thavery sends daily photo updates and takes the girls on fun walks. We trust her to administer all the necessary medication that our 14 year dog needs. One of our dogs hurt her leg recently, and Thavery was so accomodating to her needs.”
“Deborah was the best person we could’ve found to take care of our dog Chelsea. She was very nice and caring towards her, al her experience fostering dogs really showed up. Normally Chelsea doesn’t open up to strangers but she was very happy and confident with Deborah. Everyday we received picture or video updates she looked like she was having the best time. I would 100% recommend Deborah if you’re looking for someone trustworthy to take care of your fur baby. ❤️”
“Bani is absolutely amazing! She took such great care of Cash and treated him like her own baby. I felt completely secure and comfortable having him board with her, even for a couple of weeks. She and her family were so attentive, loving, and patient with him. I really appreciated the daily photo updates, they always gave me peace of mind and made me smile. I highly recommend Bani to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter. Cash can’t wait to visit again!”
“Jazmin took excellent care of Sammy. Before the stay, she took the time to learn all about Sammy and his personality, and she made sure he felt safe and happy while we were traveling. I can’t think of a better pet sitter than Jazmin, I will definitely use her again and recommend her without hesitation.”
About: I am a stay at home mom with a great lifetime of experience caring for dogs. Dogs have always been a part of my home and family, and providing attentive, nurturing care comes naturally to me. Over the years, I have cared for many dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. I am comfortable caring for young dogs, older dogs, and those who require special routines or medications. I am patient, observant, and gentle, and I focus on creating a peaceful, structured environment where dogs feel safe and relaxed. I believe in balancing activity with rest, offering appropriate play, outdoor time, and quiet moments based on each dog's individual needs. Because I am home full time, I am able to give dogs consistent supervision and adjust care as needed throughout the day. My flexible schedule allows me to provide reliable, attentive care that closely resembles a home with family setting. I am home throughout the day, which allows me to provide dogs with consistent attention, care, and companionship. Because my schedule is very flexible, pets are not left alone for long periods and are closely monitored in a calm home environment. I am happy to accommodate a wide range of drop off and pick up times. When needed, trusted family members are nearby to help ensure continuity of care. My priority is making sure your dog always feels secure, attended to, and comfortable. My home includes a secure, enclosed yard that allows dogs to enjoy fresh air and outdoor time safely. There is ample room for movement, rest, and supervised play. follow each dog's feeding schedule exactly as requested and make sure clean water is available at all times. I take routines seriously and am very attentive to any specific instructions so your dog's daily habits and comfort are maintained while in my care.
“We love Wen this is our second time she’s watched my Puppy and won’t be the last. She sends lots of updates and Boaty was super excited to see her during drop off. Thank you Wen for taking such good care of my Boaty 🚤 🐾”

“Kailyr is a caring, attentive, and responsive sitter! One of my boys needed medication while I was away and she was able to give it to him no problem. You can tell she truly cared for my cats and is an animal lover. Would love to book with her again!”
“Bennie and Jennie went above and beyond to keep my cat entertained with an array of fun toys, and I could tell my cat was having a great time with them. They were incredibly attentive to his needs and sent me frequent updates with adorable photos and videos, which really helped ease my mind while I was away. We will definitely use their services again! If you're looking for a cat sitter who truly cares and provides top-notch service, I highly recommend Bennie and Jennie!”

About: I’ve loved and cared for cats my whole life. I grew up with a cat and had one of my own in my 20s. Over the years, I’ve also cared for friends’ and neighbors’ cats while they were away. I’m patient, attentive, and genuinely loving toward all animals, making sure they feel safe and comfortable in their own home.
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!
“Justin took care of my cat Asya for 3days and we are all happy!! Justin followed our instructions carefully, played with Asya and stayed with her longer than expected. Thank you for taking your time and provide excellent care for our cat.”
“Ryan did an amazing job with my dog Koda! I could tell Koda had a great time on his walk and felt comfortable with Ryan right away. He was super responsive and communicative, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. Ryan clearly has a lot of experience with dogs. He quickly understood and followed Koda’s walking routine and handled his occasional reactivity around other dogs with confidence and ease. I’ll definitely be booking Ryan again.”
“Javier was super friendly, reliable, and hard-working. He did an amazing job dropping in to take care of my two cats, and I felt very comfortable knowing they were in good hands. I would highly recommend Javier and will 100% be contacting him again next time I need cat care!”
About: Hi, I’m Courtney! I’m based right in CDM steps from Crystal Cove, and I absolutely love what I do. My days are spent walking the coast, hiking the trails, and giving dogs the kind of attention and care that actually makes a difference. It’s genuinely my favorite part of my day. I’ve had dogs of my own for 15+ years and have experience with a wide range of breeds I can read body language, understand what a dog needs in the moment, and adjust on the fly. I have a special love for working breeds and high-energy dogs who actually want to do something on a walk. I work from home running a wellness business, so your dog gets real time and presence not someone rushing between jobs. Walks with me mean actual coastal adventures: Crystal Cove trails, Little Corona Beach, tide pool paths with ocean views. I’m an early riser, I keep a consistent schedule, and I pay attention to how your dog is feeling that day. My home is calm, clean, and non-toxic that’s just how I live. Good energy, no chaos, and plenty of cozy spots to decompress between adventures. You’ll get photos and updates so you always know they’re happy and well. I keep my roster small because I actually want to know your dog their quirks, their favorite spots, what makes them light up. Whether you need a reliable daily walker or someone to love on them while you travel, I’d love to meet them! 🐾 Working from home in my fitness and nutrition business means pets get constant attention and care. It's a daily dose of exercise and joy that complements my healthy lifestyle. Walks, fetch, or just quiet moments, pets make my day—and yours—brighter! When it comes to pet care, it's all about their turf. I'm a firm believer in maintaining their routine at home, where they're comfy and happy. I seamlessly fit into their schedule, whether it's mealtime, playtime, or cuddle time. Rest assured, your pet's happiness and well-being are my top priorities!"
“Corey has taken care of our two cats multiple times, and we have already booked her again! We were gone for a long trip and Corey provided detailed notes and many pictures each check-in, and was communicative throughout the booking. She went above and beyond, brought her own cat toy and even cleaned up the cats litter area when they made a mess. My cats are very shy but by the first few days of the booking they felt comfortable with Corey. Thank you Corey!!”
About: I am very comfortable caring for cats and understand that most cats do best when their routine and environment stay consistent. I will follow your instructions closely around feeding, litter, medication, playtime, and how much interaction your cat actually wants. Some cats want attention, conversation, brushing, and play. Others want a clean litter box, fresh food and water, and the dignity of being left alone until they decide I am acceptable. I’m fine with both. For drop-ins, I can feed your cat, refresh water, clean litter, give medication if needed, check for any changes in behavior, bring in mail or packages, and send updates so you know they are safe and cared for. For overnight care, I’m happy to stay in your home and keep your cat company while respecting their space and normal routine. Before booking, I appreciate knowing your cat’s feeding schedule, litter box routine, hiding spots, medication needs, temperament, escape risks, and any behaviors or health concerns I should watch for.
About: I’ve been taking care of stray cats since I was in Korea and have been fostering/rescuing them since 20. I have adopted my two cats during covid since they had no where to go at that time. I have expert knowledge about cats. I can clip their nails, take a shower, give them medicine pills, and give them flea medicine on their back head.
“My dogs love Ashlee! She takes great care of them and gives all the love they could want. Good with oral medication, refrigerated food, fetch, walks, raincoats, you name it. Highly recommend!”
About: Growing up I had several cats, the oldest lived to be a part of cherished memories in my twenties even. Since then I have also watch over cats while house sitting, and often assisting with foster services in Long Beach
“Deborah is a passionate pet sitter who loves animals and is dedicated to caring for pets. I had forgotten to call the gate about her coming in the first night and she was so kind and understanding about having to come back a second time the same night to care for our kitty. She is very responsible and sent lots of photos!”
“Irene is fantastic. Very professional, communicates extremely well, and is great with our dog. Our pup is in a shy phase, and Irene has been extremely patient with her as they get to know each other. She knows how to properly establish a relationship with dogs. She always sends detailed reports, and makes sure our dog is comfortable and has her food and water taken care of. Looking forward to continuing on with Irene.”

“Mari, Ryan and Remy are a dream come true! My pup is such an energetic poodle mix boy and they totally get him! It’s a match made in heaven. They send so many photos, are more than communicative and thoughtful. They are so on top of it, it’s already making me a better dog mom. Goose comes home tired- finally! Long play times and walks are what we were looking for. Sad that it took 2.5 years to find them but happy to have them a part of our lives now!”
“Very impressed with Hong! We had a last-minute change of plans and needed a sitter for our girl Spoon, and Hong was absolutely amazing. She cared for Spoon like she was her own, which gave us so much peace of mind. She’s incredibly thorough and keeps us updated throughout the day—even down to every bowel movement—which we really appreciated. We’re so grateful to have found her and will definitely keep booking with her. Highly recommend! 🤍”
“Hanah & Dabin were absolutely amazing and went above and beyond! We’re so happy and they will be our go to whenever we need a sitter in OC! We know how great they are because our dog fell asleep in the car and starting snoring immediately, that’s how much fun Ghost had today. I’m usually very anxious leaving Ghost with a sitter but they absolutely exceeded my expectations!! Hourly updates and photos, it made me enjoy my time without worrying about our baby. Truly amazing and high quality, we are so happy and will recommend to anyone we know in the area that’s in need!!”
“We’re glad our pup stayed with Dani! Dani was communicative, friendly, and accommodating. Her own pets are sweet and good company for ours. Our dog was happy when we picked her up; we’ll definitely work with Dani again.”
“Lisa was great with our 4.5 month old puppy! She took him on multiple walks and sent us photo updates throughout the day. We would book again next time we need dog sitting.”
About: Local TCU student home for the summer who loves animals and is looking for a fun, flexible side gig. I’m responsible, easygoing, and happy to hang out with dogs and treat them like my own. I’m currently home for the summer working a part-time job and looking to fill the gaps with pet care. I already take care of my energetic Duck Tolling Retriever, so I’m comfortable with daily walks, feeding, and general care. Attention to your pet, routines, and instructions are my top priority! I make sure they’re fed on time, get plenty of attention and exercise, and feel comfortable and relaxed. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of the space, keep things tidy, and always make sure doors, leashes, and gates are secure. My own dog is always on the move, so I’m used to staying aware of things like open doors and food left out.
“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!”

I’m flexible throughout the week and prioritize pet needs—whether it’s morning walks, midday playtime, or evening feedings.

“Echo and Rita are the kindest and most conscientious pet sitters I have ever had. Their dedication goes far beyond what you can imagine. Their devotion toward my Maltese left me with feeling that I could entrust a newborn baby with them. They were, honestly, that good. Your precious pet is in capable & loving hands with Echo. Thank you sooooo much!”
“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!”
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.
“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.”
“Melanie was great! She was super communicative and easy to book with. I appreciated all the updates and pictures. I could tell my two dogs were well taken care of, they were very comfortable and happy! Will definitely book again!”
“Second time using Twinkle and would use again. She takes great care of my little blind senior fur baby. She communicates well and sends updates throughout the day. Highly recommend her ❤️”
About: I’m a full-time work-from-home dog mom to my 2.5-year-old golden retriever, Goose, who loves meeting new friends. I can offer your pet constant companionship, regular potty breaks, and walks throughout the day. I’ve raised Goose since he was 12 weeks old, have over 5 years of pet-sitting experience, and grew up with cats. I can administer medications, follow detailed care instructions, and make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and part of the family from the moment they arrive. Pet care is naturally woven into my everyday life—I already spend my days walking, playing with, and caring for Goose. Working from home gives me the flexibility to provide frequent potty breaks, mid-day walks, and plenty of playtime. Whether it’s a quick cuddle, a mental-stimulating game, or an extra walk to burn energy, I can easily adjust my day to meet each pet’s needs. In my home, pets are treated like family. Dogs have access to a secure balcony for fresh air and are allowed on the bed for snuggles, but not on other furniture. We follow a no human-food policy to keep pets safe. I stick closely to your feeding, exercise, and medication schedule, ensuring your dog feels comfortable and confident in their surroundings. Goose is extremely friendly with other dogs and fascinated (but gentle) with cats; if needed, I can separate spaces to keep everyone relaxed.
“Deborah has been wonderful at taking care of Harry! She asked lots of questions and was super sweet and loving! I am very protective of him and don’t leave him with any one if I can help it! But as I had a grand baby on the way - I needed help and Deborah was amazing! We will see her again!”
“Ning is very sweet and sends you multiple updates per day of your pup! She’s very caring and I can tell my dog had a great time staying with her! Would definitely book with her again.”
About: I am a super animal nerd whose feed is covered with animals. I love all different kinds of animals that some people might be scared of. I had all kinds of pets throughout my life, and they lived longer than their life span. I’ve cared for all my family/friends’ dogs since I was little. I’ve been taking care of my aunt’s elderly dog, who is deaf and blind, for a month every year since they could only trust me. I can play and cuddle with them the entire day since I am always home and go out only for exercise. I am the best dog walker since I love running, hiking, and walking near the area, as we have so many good places to do so:) I work from home and barely go out because I am homebody and love cuddling and playing with animals entire day. I love running and walking near my place and can do it as much as needed. My place is a third-floor townhome plan, and it’s 1,500 sq ft. I don’t leave my place for three hours a day unless there is a special occasion. We have three cats at home, so a fur baby who is aggressive towards cats cannot stay at my place. They are all fully vaccinated including rabies, and shy but sweet. We have many hiking trails, beach walks, and parks near our place so we can go to entertain the dogs as much as they want:)

About: I’ve lived in Newport Coast for over 32 years, raised three children, and have spent decades caring for dogs as beloved family members. I’ve had three dogs of my own, each with different needs — including a blind dog, a very active dog, and one who experiences anxiety — which has given me a deep appreciation for patience, gentleness, and consistency. I’m a loving, attentive, and reliable caregiver with a calm presence. I enjoy being outdoors and truly value the one-on-one connection that comes from walking and caring for dogs. Available weekdays. Weekend mornings only, before the sun goes down as needed. Please message me to confirm availability — I’m happy to accommodate when possible. For safety and comfort, I provide services exclusively in your home. This includes dog walks, potty breaks, and drop-in visits. I do not offer boarding or care in my home.
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover and educator with a flexible schedule on weekends, holidays, and during the summer. After sharing 14 wonderful years with my French Bulldog, Bijoux, I found Rover to be a special way to continue caring for dogs—even when I didn’t have one of my own. I have open availability on weekends, holidays, and throughout the summer. During your pet’s stay, I am home full-time and provide attentive, one-on-one companionship. I never double-book or care for multiple pets at the same time, ensuring your pet receives my full focus and care. I live with my partner in a townhome, and he is also an educator who shares my love for dogs. Together, we provide a caring, calm environment where your fur baby will receive plenty of extra love and attention. A meet-and-greet will always be scheduled before any service to get to know you and your pet. This gives us time to connect, discuss important details about your pet’s needs and routine, and ensure that my services are the right fit for both you and your pup. I care for every pet as if they were my own. I understand how important it is to share detailed instructions when leaving your dog in someone else’s care, so please feel free to tell me anything that will help me provide the best possible experience—whether it’s medical needs, preferences, routines, or special quirks. My goal is to offer consistent, loving care that mirrors what your pet receives at home.
About: I’ve been raised around animals of all kinds since I can remember, my mother regularly raised foster kittens and we had foster dogs constantly in and out of the house. I currently still foster dogs and kittens on my own and am the go to sitter for all my friends and family. Spent years volunteering at shelters and rescues and also worked at a pet store for over a year. Also lover of small critters being a mom of fish, frogs, a hamster, and a spider. I currently work from home selling artwork and crafts so I’m very flexible with my schedule. I can stay all day or even over night and make sure to keep your pet company. I’m an avid hiker so I’d be more than happy to take your dog for a long hike (with permission obviously) or shorter walks around the neighborhood. I would only need to leave for short errands and to feed my own pets if my partner is unable to do so, but majority of time is dedicated to your Pets in your home. I’ve worked with animals of all ages and personalities and can accommodate any special needs your pet may have. If they are shy and need time to warm up, I will do all I can to gain their trust. If they need specialty food or medication, I have my own cats on a strict medication schedule so I’m more than used to it. If they are high energy and need lots of exercise I will make sure to get them up and running around as much as they need. I just want to make sure their lives are just as comfortable as when you are home with them.
“Awesome reliable dog sitter. Carol is very flexible and accommodating. This is my second time using her services and would definitely recommend to anyone needing a pet sitter on SSI.”
About: Hi there! My name is Charlene and I’ve had experience taking care of dogs since I was 4 from taking care of my family dog Heidi. More specifically I started taking on more responsibilities in pet care when I turned 8. Taking my dog on daily walks, feeding everyday, and picking up their waste in the backyard after I came home from school. Now that I’ve grown up, I have a cat named Georgie which I have learned to care for the last year I’ve had him. Whether it’s a dog or a cat, I am happy to treat them like you would when you can’t. I am currently working remotely. I live in a very walkable neighborhood, and with a park nearby for walks, giving me quick and easy access to always be available to let your furry friend out. I have experience with all dog sizes, but I prefer to work with medium to small dogs. If boarding in my own home, I have a cat who is fine with dogs. He tends to keep to himself when around dogs and won’t attack. I’m currently working from home so I have a lot of free time in between applications to play with your furbaby all the time. If there are any special requests please let me know! My number one priority is keeping your pet safe like I would care for my own pets. I will always keep my clients updated with details to ease your mind and to make sure you know that your loved pet is in great hands.

I had all kinds of pets throughout my life, and they lived longer than their life span. I’ve cared for all my family/friends’ dogs since I was little. I’ve been taking care of my aunt’s elderly dog, who is deaf and blind, for a month every year since they could only trust me. I can play and cuddle with them the entire day since I am always home and go out only for exercise. I am the best dog walker since I love running, hiking, and walking near the area, as we have so many good places to do so:) I work from home and barely go out because I am homebody and love cuddling and playing with animals entire day. I love running and walking near my place and can do it as much as needed. My place is a third-floor townhome plan, and it’s 1,500 sq ft. I don’t leave my place for three hours a day unless there is a special occasion. We have three cats at home, so a fur baby who is aggressive towards cats cannot stay at my place. They are all fully vaccinated including rabies, and shy but sweet. We have many hiking trails, beach walks, and parks near our place so we can go to entertain the dogs as much as they want:)
“Julie was great! My complex is kind of hard to get to but she followed the instructions I gave and took great care of my dog Peach. She even brought packages in that were left at my door.”
“Polina was amazing with Lola yesterday! It was pouring rain, and Lola absolutely hates going out when it’s wet, but Polina was so patient, kind, and understanding the whole time. She took the extra care to make sure Lola felt comfortable and never rushed her. I really appreciated her calm, gentle approach and the updates she shared. I’d definitely hire Polina again….highly recommend!”

“Amanda is amazing. She has a calm energy that is excellent for dogs. She immediately gained the trust both of my dogs that she was walking that never trust strangers. She is responsible and extremely professional. I have never trusted anyone outside of my family with my dogs until I met Amanda.”
About: I’ve had dogs in my family and in my life ever since I was born, I’ve taken care of all sizes and breeds of dogs and haven’t come across a dog I didn’t LOVE! I’ve taken care of all of my dogs ever since I was able to do chores, walking, bathing, training, and caring after them. I’ve also cared for my family’s, friends, and neighbors dogs overnight for vacations and trips since I was 18! I just left my job and am preparing to move to australia at the end of july! my schedule is free for you and your pets and i’d love the chance to care for them until i leave! I follow any and all recommendations you have for your babies (because you know them best), and I like for your pets to get to know me and me them before taking them out or playing with them so they feel comfortable with me. I am also very active so I like to take them out as much as they’re willing to!
“It's a wonderful experience having Sonomi taking care of our dog Sky. She is awesome and Sky loves her. She is punctual, caring, kind and happy person. We would highly recommend her to our family & friends for pet care. Thanks so much Sonomi.”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 10 years, including my own Samoyed, Ghost, who I’ve raised and trained since he was a puppy. His name is Ghost Winterfell Cordas like from Game of Thrones. As his primary caregiver, I handle everything from daily walks and feeding to grooming and training. I’ve taught him obedience and tricks, and I’m comfortable working with dogs of different sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. Friends and family trust me to provide reliable, attentive, and loving care, and I always treat every dog like my own. I’m a UW–Madison student with classes on Mondays and Wednesdays from 2:30-5:15, but I have a very flexible schedule outside of that. I’m available most days for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting, including weekends. I have plenty of free time to give your dog attention, playtime, and consistent care throughout the day When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always respect their space and routines. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, walks, and any specific needs to keep pets comfortable and consistent. I make sure the home stays clean, secure, and exactly how I found it. I’m very attentive, communicate updates regularly, and treat both your pet and your home with the same care and respect as my own.

About: Hello! And welcome to my page! I go by CeCe! I am grown and raised in beautiful sunny Santa Barbara! I now reside in the lovely sunny Orange County! I’ve been around animals all my life. From my mom having the best border collie when I was a baby, to us having two cats, a bunny, and at least one parakeet in an apartment that i grew up in during most of my childhood to teen years. It was even my dream to get a job working at my local zoo as an actor, which eventually came true. All so I could be surrounded by animals, and say I worked with Dinosaurs too (I even acted with them)! When I moved out of my childhood home I unfortunately could only find affordable places to live that didn’t allow animals. That’s how I got into dog sitting! I loved being around animals and helping others take care of their fluffy family members. I now live with my significant other whose family cat is king of the house. I still enjoy walking dogs and house sitting. I do, unfortunately, work a 9 to 5 office job Monday to Friday (actually 8 to 4) to pay the bills. Because of this my rates reflect that. I wish I could pet sit all the time but for now this is my second job. I will treat your house as my own with a cleanly manner. I have my own form of transportation in the form of a vehicle with four wheels so any adventurous pups I am able to accommodate! I work an 8hr office job Monday to Friday. Sometimes a Saturday or Sunday if I happened to miss a day during the week due to life. It is adjustable and willing to accommodate with enough prior notice. Any lunch drop ins will need to be discussed. Because of previous experiences drop ins will need to be agreed upon by both parties and throughly planned. I am uncomfortable with cameras inside the home that are not made aware of during meet and greet. I am okay with cameras outside the home and understand the safety concerns of having them. I do not abide by using them to track movements of caregivers. I have an office job Monday to Friday, sometimes I have to make up hours on a weekend day because of other adult responsibilities during the week coinciding with other adult responsibilities such as work. I typically work 8hrs with a lunch break that can be up to an hour. I also have a partner and a home to help run. I have errands to take care of after work and on days off, like weekends. That being said I will do everything in my power to put your pet first, but I will not ignore my health.

“Bridget was absolutely incredible with our boy! She and her family were so kind and caring, and updated us with lots of photos and videos. Our dog unexpectedly fell sick, and she not only immediately notified us, but took him to the emergency vet within minutes. She felt comfortable caring for him at home and he recovered well with her. Our dog became part of the family with her, and we would not hesitate to ask Bridget to watch him again in the future. She is an absolute gem!”
“Victoria watched our dog Betsy for a weekend while we were out of town and everything went smoothly! Betsy was very comfortable and Victoria maintained communication daily to give us updates on her! She followed the schedule provided and took wonderfully care of Betsy!”
“Hanah & Dabin took such great care of our rescue dog Lilo during her first 2-week boarding stay 🥹💕 Since she’s a rescue, she can be pretty fearful and shy in new environments, so we were honestly nervous leaving her for that long for the first time. They sent us lots of photo/video updates, were incredibly patient and warm with her, and made us feel so at ease the whole time. It was so comforting seeing Lilo slowly open up and enjoy herself 🐶 We’re super grateful for all the love and care they gave her, and we’d absolutely book with them again!! 💛”
“Hazel was well taken care of by Doug! He was very flexible with our drop off and pick up times. She went on plenty of walks and slept well when she got back home. I will be using Doug in the future!”
“Bani is absolutely amazing! She took such great care of Cash and treated him like her own baby. I felt completely secure and comfortable having him board with her, even for a couple of weeks. She and her family were so attentive, loving, and patient with him. I really appreciated the daily photo updates, they always gave me peace of mind and made me smile. I highly recommend Bani to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter. Cash can’t wait to visit again!”

We would absolutely book with Mia again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter!”
“Vi was fantastic with Cal and I would trust her to take care of Cal for future boarding. Cal is a recent rescue so I wanted to make sure he was with someone who will provide him with the care he needs. Vi provided Cal with toys, lots of walks and plenty of snuggles. She would update me with pictures and videos of how he was doing daily so that put me at ease. It was also great knowing that she works from home so Cal had a buddy majority of time to hang out with. This was my first Rover experience and it has been an awesome one with Vi. Thank you again for taking care of my lil Cal.”

I would highly recommend them for anyone looking to board their dog and we will be a repeat customer in the future!”
