“We had a wonderful experience with Vi when we left our dog for 6 days for boarding. I could tell that our dog was very at ease with Vi during her stay. Vi updated us daily on how our dog was doing which really put me at ease. She sent daily pictures and described our dog’s behavior (demanding pets and cuddles) and I knew my dog was having a good time. I plan to book her again next time I need boarding!”
“Patricia did such a great job taking care of my Australian shepherd! She kept us updated daily, and it seems like Loki had a blast! We'll definitely be back if needed in the future!”
“Katrina was great with my elderly dog Rocky and kept me up to date on how he was doing. She provided consistent communication, a caring attitude, and a clear love for animals.”
“Al and his wife took exceptional care of our dog Stella. We were visiting from out of state and Al was flexible with drop off and pick up time. Stella got to go with them to line dancing. She was loved and treated like their own. Real special dog caregivers. Thank you!!!”
“Sunny took great care of our dog who can be quite shy with new people. Ralphie was in great hands and it really allowed us to enjoy our trip. She was very responsive and gave detailed updates. Ralphie will for sure be back!!”
“My dog, Bailey, had a great stay with Victoria. She stayed in touch with me assuring me Bailey was fine. I knew she was in good care. No problems, easy to interact with. I would recommend her!!”
“Jennie and Bennie are the best cat sitters!!!! They took care of our three cats for two weeks, and they sent me daily updates explaining how they were adjusting to their house along with photos and videos. The room for the cats is beautiful and perfect for climbing and playing. Jennie and Bennie are trustworthy, caring, reliable, and knowledgeable about cats. I knew my cats were safe and well taken care of. I highly recommend them.”
“Cali was a happy dog when I picked her up. She is home now - calm and relaxed - with what feels (to me) like fond memories of her time with Nicole and her two Pomeranians. We are looking forward to the next time.”
“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!”
“Nathan and his family took great care of my German Shepherd. I was sent pictures and updates every day. I love that his daughters were involved with playing with her and making her feel loved. I would like to have Nathan and his family take care of my pup again!”
“We couldn’t be more pleased with the loving care and attention Melanie provided for our two pups! She ensured they seamlessly meshed with her own dog, as well as another dog she was caring for at the time. She went above and beyond to alleviate our concerns about the stairs, and employed all appropriate safeguards. We gladly and heartily recommend Melanie!”
“So sweet! Very nice couple and their dog is adorable and well behaved also. Avery had a great time! They even sent him home with a really cute photo of himself. I can’t say enough good things and I will definitely use her again.”
“Liv was amazing with our puppy. She was patient and loving with him. Being a new puppy requires a lot of work and she was patient with him. Thank you for taking such good care of him.”
“Emily took great care of Bailey, was attentive to her needs, and kept us updated throughout her stay. Bailey seemed happy and comfortable when we picked her up. We really appreciate the care she gave Bailey and would definitely book with her again!”
About: I have been a “Dog Mom” for over 20 years. Often having multiple dogs of different sizes and breeds. I have handled deaf dogs- using sign language for commands, bells on door handles for dogs to signal outside time and understanding quiet, calm environments for senior dogs. I currently have no dogs in the house and I miss it so much! I’m excited to help your family any way I can. I’m a stay at home mom with one 9 year old boy who shares in my love for dogs. My child will be at school during the school year. My days are flexible to accommodate your needs. I’m happy to send photos/videos of your fur baby as often as you’d like! I have a small outdoor patio that is partly shaded for those dogs who love a good sun- bathing. Out front there is some grass and I have a leash attached to large tree if they prefer grass time. (I will be outside with them the entire time) I can accommodate crate training at night or snuggle with them in my king size bed! We are an A/C controlled home!!

“We loved Kayla! We hired her to water our veggie plants twice a day while were were out of town. She showed up on time the morning before we left. She was polite, attentive, and had lovely manners. After we returned from our trip, it was clear that she had taken excellent care of our plants. Everything looked great! I would absolutely trust her with pets and would hire her again in an instant.”
“Tala did a fantastic job taking care of our two cats over the weekend! She was reliable, communicative, and made sure our cats were happy and well cared for. We came home to clean litter boxes, full water bowls, and two very content kitties. It was clear she gave our pets plenty of love and attention. Highly recommend Tala!”
“Devenee was so wonderful and she was able to win my cat over very quickly despite my cat being super shy to new people. The photos she sent of my cat are some of my favorites of her now. I'll be rebooking with her for future travels as long as she is available to watch my cat.”
“Evelyn took the best care of my toast. She came on time, sent pictures and videos, administered medication and played and snuggled. She watched after my sphinx as if was her baby and I appreciated having peace of mind on my trip that my cat was taken care of and loved. Will definitely rehire”

About: As a cat owner, I understand that cats often need a different approach than dogs. I'm comfortable with everything from social cats who want attention to more independent cats who prefer their space. I'll keep their feeding and litter routine consistent, provide play and attention based on their personality, and keep you updated with photos while you're away

About: I have many years of experience, taking care of my own cat as well as family and friends. I understand what every cat wants: a human to boss around. Happy to give them their space, or be their best friend for the day. -Comfortable giving medications -Capable of giving most cats dry or wet baths (some ease into it, and some will absolutely destroy you)

“My puppy was really living her best life with Dan, and I could tell from the pictures. She got to play with other dogs and splash in the pool. When she's happy her ears fold down, and I got the sweetest pic of her sitting super calm with her ears folded down. A dead giveaway for her! Can't wait to send her again”
“Ning! You are so awesome! The photos throughout the day were heartwarming. I was so surprised to see her get so cozy with you. If I’m ever back in CA. I’ll use your services again! Thanks so much!!!!”
“I have 2 fur kids- and was seeking a trustworthy kind sitter, specifically for some special needs for my almost 18yr old terrier poodle mix. It truly takes a special person to understand the gentleness and extra care needed for seniors specifically- I came across Lisa‘s profile and SHE IS AMAZING!! I booked her and utilized her services immediately. I plan to have many more visits with her in the future! My cuties LOVE HER. ?? She is very attentive, sends Photos and updates etc. Trust me, as a neurotic dog mom it takes a lot to impress me- and I am BEYOND impressed!! THANK YOU LISA!??”
“Kaela was wonderful with Shaka and we will definitely leave him with her again. She is thoughtful and kind with the puppy and he’s excited to see her when I drop him off in the morning. 10/10 great dog sitter!”
“Victoria was great! She helped us last minute when I was in a bind and sent me pics of my happy dog throughout the day. She was also very dependable and communicative. Highly recommend!”
“Katrina is a lifesaver. We needed a sitter for Max last minute while on vacation. It was our first time using Rover and having Katrina as our sitter eased our anxiety, especially with Max being an anxious & slightly reactive dog with new people. She was really easy to talk to, updated us throughout the day, knows how to handle dogs, and Max warmed up to her quickly. Thank you again Katrina!”

“Kiki had an absolute blast with Nathan, Paula, and their adorable daughters during her stay! It was so nice seeing the photos of Kiki having a blast with the family throughout the day—whether it was playing at the beach or curling up on the couch for some snuggles. Thanks to Nathan and Paula’s care and attention, I was able to fully enjoy my time at Disneyland. I will definitely be trusting them with Kiki next time I’m in the area!”
“Michael and Karen C were THE BEST. My dogs were very well cared for. I received pictures of them during their stay. They were flexible when I had trouble with traffic and arrived late. When there was a payment problem, they spent much time and effort to make it right. When I had yo cancel two visits with short notice they refused to take compensation. No hesitation to give them 5 stars!!”

About: I have had a dog my entire life and have pet sat for neighbors, coaches and friends with both dogs and cats. I Love animals and would be more than happy to love on your pet! I am a student at Vanguard University! I play Volleyball here and am majoring in psychology. I love animals and would be happy to spend time with your pet since we’re not allowed to have them in the dorms. My dog Charlie is a 7-year-old German shorthaired pointer, so he is a very energetic boy. He loves to swim and run around the back yard, so we spend a lot of time outside! He is allowed to sleep on the bed and loves to cuddle. Unfortunately, since I moved away to college, I am not living with a pet currently seeing as we are not allowed to have animals in the dorms. I am totally open to whatever you need me to do in order to make sure your fur baby is as comfortable as possible while you're away.
“Chad has GREAT energy, he is kind, respectful and prompt! Our dog immediately connected to Chad and he made her feel comfortable and seen. We feel like we are in the very best of care with Chad!”
“Mia is an amazing dog walker, she has so much patience and understands dogs. My dog Atlas has A LOT of energy and can sometimes be too much to handle, but Mia knows how to match his energy and has so much patience for him. She was also flexible if I needed to change plans and communicative. I have recommended Mia to my coworkers and would recommend her to anyone!”
“Jared was GREAT! Kept me updated the whole time. Sent pics. Offered to take him running. Even let me know my dog might have an oncoming upset stomach (which he did) So my BF was prepared and laid out pads over the carpet. Saved me the headache of having to hire a cleaner or order a rug doctor. Will definitely keep Jared on the list of trusted walkers.”
“Ashley has been wonderful with Brandy! She’s reliable, communicative, and clearly cares about the dogs she works with. I really appreciate the detailed notes and photo updates after every walk. It’s so reassuring to see how Brandy did and know he’s in such great hands. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dependable dog walker!”
About: I have experience giving medicine to both cats and dogs. As a teacher, I have my summer open to be as supportive as I can while you’re in vacation! During the school year, I have my afternoons and early mornings open to help care for your pets. In the summer my schedule is wide open to help! My two cats are super friendly and would love to meet new dogs or cats! I will care for your pet as if they are my own to provide comfort while you are away!
“Annabel is such a treasure! She not only has been walking Nyx for some time now, she was excellent with a visiting pup, Toby who can be a bit shy. I highly recommend Annabel!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I could remember! From taking care of neighbors dogs while they were on vacation in the summertime when I was younger to now! I’ve grown up around dogs of all sizes my entire life. Chihuahua to Saint Bernard, I love them all :) I’m currently working full time, but WFH so I’m always looking forward to going on a walk middle of the day or just all in all getting out of my apartment for a bit! I can help out either before work, around lunchtime, or after most days. I never try to push the boundaries with what a dog might be comfortable with! I understand that I’m a stranger to them and can’t fault them if they are a bit wary at first! For dog walking if there are any places in the area you’d like for me to avoid, just let me know! Maybe parks aren’t their favorite, that’s okay we can walk in a neighborhood. Or maybe they are reactive at the beach, we can try the park, etc! Please just communicate with me any possible roadblocks and I’ll try my best to accommodate so they can have a good time as well.
“Damariz was wonderful!!! She was super communicative and helpful. I gave her specific instructions on how to enter and lock the door and she was great. I trust her with my pup”
“Chloe is everything you hope for in a dog walker. She’s caring, punctual, and truly makes the most of every minute based on your dog’s energy level. Our six-month-old Siberian husky has endless energy, and Chloe matches it with real engagement — not a distracted stroll. I’ve seen other walkers glued to their phones; Chloe is the opposite: fully present, attentive, and genuinely invested. Your pup is in good hands.”
About: After losing my beloved fur baby of 13.5 years, Jax, to a massive tumor, I decided to leave Corporate America and embark on a soul-searching journey through South America. Along the way, I connected with so many wonderful dogs who filled my heart with love and comfort. Now that I’m back home, I’m focusing on writing a book about my journey and enjoying the flexibility in my schedule. Though I’m not ready for another dog of my own just yet, I would love to be an "auntie" to yours. Friends always joked that I treated Jax better than most people treat their children—we were inseparable! We’d go on outdoor adventures, especially to the beach, which was our happy place. During the last year of his life, I cooked him healthy meals and found natural supplements to help him through his battle. I’d love to care for your pup while you’re off on your own adventures, either in your home or mine. I have a passion for yoga, self-care, travel, live music, good food, and sunsets—so your fur baby will be in good company on our little adventures. I'm super flexible with my schedule, so your pup can join me on walks in the Back Bay or the Beach—two of my favorite spots! If they prefer some quiet time, they can hang out with me while I’m writing my book, or we can just snuggle on the couch and relax together. Whether it’s outdoor adventures or cozy downtime, I’m happy to give your fur baby the care and love they need. To ensure your pup’s comfort and safety, it’s important to know about their temperament and preferences. Understanding what they enjoy, their routine, and any specific needs they might have helps me provide the best care possible. While I may prefer to host them at my place, I’m open to staying at your home if it feels right for everyone. A meet-and-greet beforehand is ideal to ensure there’s compatibility and comfort for all parties involved before committing to a stay.
About: I have a 13 year old springer spaniel named Casey! She is the best puppy ever and has definitely helped me become the best pet sitter. Growing up I taught her behavioral tricks, party tricks and even helped potty train her. I would often watch her alone while my parents were out of town, along with some other neighborhood dogs. I’ve dealt with a few different breeds (and cats) and have been able to navigate the best way for me to care for them through each of their unique personalities. I truly have a deep love for animals and would love the opportunity to look after your pet! I enjoy spending quality time with them, playing, walking and even grooming them. I am currently working full time in the Costa Mesa area. My hours are 6am - 2:30pm Saturday - Wednesday. I am open to pet care after 2:30 and/or working on my days off (Thursday and Friday), which I have open availability on. I would prefer to do care in the clients home. I am open to really any service! I can come to take out your pet, play with them, sit with them, feed them and groom them.
About: I’ve loved dogs my entire life! Growing up, my family had three Shih-Poos, so caring for dogs has always been a big part of my life. I currently have a Cavapoo of my own, which has given me plenty of hands on experience with puppy care, training, walks, playtime, and keeping a pup happy and comfortable. I’m patient, attentive, and treat every dog like they’re my own. Whether your dog needs an energetic walk, some playtime, or simply a friendly check in while you’re away, I’ll make sure they get plenty of love, attention, and care!

I’ll follow your instructions closely, keep your pup safe and secure during walks, and provide pictures and updates so there’s no need to worry on how your pup is doing!
About: For many years, I’ve taken care of pets for clients, friends, and family. I love hanging out with animals, and enjoying the unique personalities of each pet! My daily schedule is very flexible, so I am often able to make availability any time you need. Available for daily drop-in care, or overnight care in your home. I will take care of your pet however you see fit, according to your preferences. I unfortunately do not provide care in my own home, as my cat has made it clear she prefers the home to herself.

I had a golden retriever as a kid, and for the past 3 years I’ve been caring for my own large dog — so I’m very comfortable with big breeds, high energy pups, and all the love (and slobber!) that comes with them. Whether your pup needs long walks, playtime, or just some extra snuggles, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. Because I work from home, I can be very flexible — available for walks, feedings, or drop-ins throughout the day. Whether your dog needs exercise, companionship, or extra snuggles, I’ll be there. escription: When pets stay with me, they’re treated just like family. I have a spacious home with a large fenced-in yard, perfect for playtime, exercise, and safe potty breaks. I also have a crate available if your dog is crate-trained or you’d prefer them to have their own cozy space. Since I work from home, I’m around all day to give them plenty of love, attention, and care — whether it’s walks, feeding, play, or cuddle time.
About: Hi, I’m Felipe! Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I’ve spent years caring for rescue dogs and cats of all ages, personalities, and energy levels. Through that experience, I’ve developed a strong understanding of animal behavior, routines, and the patience needed to help pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. Why pet parents trust me: • Experienced with rescue dogs and cats of all ages and personalities • Reliable, patient, and easygoing • Comfortable with pets of all sizes and energy levels • Focused on safety, routine, and positive experiences • Long walks, playtime, companionship, and daily care • Regular photo and message updates • Treat every pet with care, respect, and attention What you can expect when you book with me: • Reliable , attentive care • Regular updates and photos • Consistent routines and attention • Exercise, play, and companionship • A safe and positive experience for your pet I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care. That’s why I treat every animal as if they were my own, providing plenty of attention, safety, affection, exercise, and a calm, positive environment. My goal is simple: to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while giving you complete peace of mind when you’re away. I have a flexible schedule and genuinely enjoy building routines around pet care. Daily walks, exercise, feeding, playtime, and making pets feel calm and comfortable are already a big part of my everyday life with my own rescue dogs and cats. I’m reliable, punctual, communicative, and committed to giving every pet consistent attention, care, and affection. Whether your pet needs an active walk, companionship, or a calm and patient sitter, I always make their safety and happiness a priority. Safety, trust, and calm energy are extremely important to me when caring for pets. I always take time to understand each pet’s personality, routine, and comfort level so they feel safe and secure. I have experience caring for rescue animals and understand the importance of patience, structure, supervision, and positive interactions. I keep owners updated with messages and photos, closely monitor pets during walks and visits, and treat every home and animal with respect, reliability, and care as if they were my own family.

“We had a wonderful experience with Vi when we left our dog for 6 days for boarding. I could tell that our dog was very at ease with Vi during her stay. Vi updated us daily on how our dog was doing which really put me at ease. She sent daily pictures and described our dog’s behavior (demanding pets and cuddles) and I knew my dog was having a good time. I plan to book her again next time I need boarding!”
“Patricia did such a great job taking care of my Australian shepherd! She kept us updated daily, and it seems like Loki had a blast! We'll definitely be back if needed in the future!”
“Nikcole was very flexible and understanding. She and her family took great care of our family. Our pets seemed very comfortable around the entire group. We would love to have her sit for us again.”
“Sunny took great care of our dog who can be quite shy with new people. Ralphie was in great hands and it really allowed us to enjoy our trip. She was very responsive and gave detailed updates. Ralphie will for sure be back!!”
“My dog, Bailey, had a great stay with Victoria. She stayed in touch with me assuring me Bailey was fine. I knew she was in good care. No problems, easy to interact with. I would recommend her!!”
“Cali was a happy dog when I picked her up. She is home now - calm and relaxed - with what feels (to me) like fond memories of her time with Nicole and her two Pomeranians. We are looking forward to the next time.”
“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!”
“Nathan and his family took great care of my German Shepherd. I was sent pictures and updates every day. I love that his daughters were involved with playing with her and making her feel loved. I would like to have Nathan and his family take care of my pup again!”
“We couldn’t be more pleased with the loving care and attention Melanie provided for our two pups! She ensured they seamlessly meshed with her own dog, as well as another dog she was caring for at the time. She went above and beyond to alleviate our concerns about the stairs, and employed all appropriate safeguards. We gladly and heartily recommend Melanie!”
“So sweet! Very nice couple and their dog is adorable and well behaved also. Avery had a great time! They even sent him home with a really cute photo of himself. I can’t say enough good things and I will definitely use her again.”
“Monica absolutely wonderful! She took such great care of Charlie while I was away, and I always felt at ease knowing he was in good hands. She’s incredibly reliable, caring, and attentive. One of my favorite things is how she always sends photos and updates, which really makes me feel connected and reassured while I’m away. I came home to a happy, relaxed pup and couldn’t be more grateful. Highly recommend!”
“Emily took great care of Bailey, was attentive to her needs, and kept us updated throughout her stay. Bailey seemed happy and comfortable when we picked her up. We really appreciate the care she gave Bailey and would definitely book with her again!”
“Armida is fantastic. She’s been looking after my mini Aussie, Loki, for the past four months, and I couldn’t be happier. I met her when I had just moved to Huntington, and she was kind and welcoming from day one. Loki now gets genuinely excited when we pull up to her house. She’s reliable, consistent, and lovely, and she always sends photos when I’m travelling for work, which gives me so much peace of mind. I honestly couldn’t recommend her enough.”
About: I have been a “Dog Mom” for over 20 years. Often having multiple dogs of different sizes and breeds. I have handled deaf dogs- using sign language for commands, bells on door handles for dogs to signal outside time and understanding quiet, calm environments for senior dogs. I currently have no dogs in the house and I miss it so much! I’m excited to help your family any way I can. I’m a stay at home mom with one 9 year old boy who shares in my love for dogs. My child will be at school during the school year. My days are flexible to accommodate your needs. I’m happy to send photos/videos of your fur baby as often as you’d like! I have a small outdoor patio that is partly shaded for those dogs who love a good sun- bathing. Out front there is some grass and I have a leash attached to large tree if they prefer grass time. (I will be outside with them the entire time) I can accommodate crate training at night or snuggle with them in my king size bed! We are an A/C controlled home!!
“We had the absolute pleasure of having Lisa care for our dog, Cooper, and I truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Cooper is like our baby, and Lisa treated him with so much love, attention, and care—it meant everything to us. Honestly, I don’t think he even wanted to come home! She has the sweetest dog and a beautiful yard where Cooper could run and play, and he felt completely comfortable right away. Throughout my time away, Lisa sent thoughtful updates and photos that made me so happy and gave me total peace of mind. Lisa is truly a gift—reliable, kind, and clearly someone who genuinely loves what she does. I will absolutely be using her regularly and would recommend her to anyone without hesitation. You would be so lucky to have her care for your dog. 5 stars all the way! ⭐️🐾”
