“Great experience! The sitter was kind, reliable, and very attentive to my dog’s needs. I received regular updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind. My dog came back happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. I highly recommend her service and will definitely book again!”
“Hanna & David were absolutely the best while babysitting my dog Loki. They sent me multiple pictures and I could tell that Loki was happy. Their dog Evan is also the nicest guy ever, and was super sweet and friendly to Loki. I would absolutely recommend them and I will book again with them in the future.”
“Patricia was fantastic. She was very, very quick to respond and took our pups on long walks, which they love. They were exhausted when they got home because they had so much fun!”
“Nikcole was responsive and was able to accommodate my short notice booking. I felt very comfortable with her and her family watching over my dog, Coco. I would use her again and recommend her to others.”
“Benson is very organized and has sent me multiple pictures of my kitten, alleviating all of worries. Would recommend to anyone looking for reliable and thorough sitters for their kittens. Truly felt like our kitty was in good hands and are so grateful for Benison and his girlfriend, Jennie. 5 Stars!”
“Diana is absolutely amazing and so sweet. Our babies loved her and we know they did because they weren’t stressed at all when we picked them up. Usually after staying at dog hotels our dogs would be so uncomfortable and upset with us. With Diana they were so happy. Diana’s care was like home away from home with them. She checked in with us everyday. Highly recommend Diana if you want your pups to feel safe and at home. We will use her anytime we are away. She’s the best.”
“Eunice and her husband were absolutely amazing to my girl. This was my first time leaving my pitty to a sitter and I have zero regrets. She took note of all of my reminders for her and provided me updates throughout each day that I was gone. I felt at ease throughout my vacation because of Eunice’s consistent communication. She walked her multiple times throughout the day and let her onto their furniture. A million thank yous to Eunice and her husband.”
“Our 7yr old mini schnauzer LOVES Al and Dody! He is treated like a member of their family. He looks forward to seeing them and misses them when he leaves. We don't use any other Rover sitter and truly appreciate finding a great match for our fur baby. If your pup does better with one-on-one human attention instead of a kennel/boarding environment, then book early for Al - he is one of the best sitters in Orange County.”
“Maria is such a caring and kind person. Always updating me regarding the health and safety of my puppy. She treated Akira as her family and made sure she was comfortable. She respected my instructions and politely asked if she can help with training or other activities. I would definitely recommend her and most definitely rebook in the future.”
“Sunny was great. Very accommodating and loving toward our Champ. She took Champ for walks and helped him learn to walk with a leash, as he's still a pup. She also sent pictures daily of Champ playing and while on their walks. You can sense her love for dogs as soon as you meet her. Highly recommended!”
“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!”
“Grateful they were able to accommodate us last minute! My dog is a gentle giant and they kept him safe for us for the night, I loved getting picture and videos. Thank you!”
“Thavery always takes good care of our Hazel! She sends us updates, pictures and videos. We appreciate her watching her this memorial weekend. Will always ask her again as long as she's available”
“Absolutely wonderful sitter for our puppy! We will definitely use her services again. She sent us picture updates and was very flexible with our availability! So trustworthy and kind!”
“He lives in a great community with plenty of open spaces, parks, and trails. My dog looks very happy with him. He fed, walked, and played with my dog. He also sent me photos and videos how he took care of my dog. He is a dog lover and great carer.”
“She was an amazing pet sitter! She gave me updates everyday and when I texted her I always got an response! My dog Bella was so happy and they have the best set up fof dogs! I am definitely going to book with them again. :) Thank you Wendi! :)”

She reliably cleaned the litter box, fed my cat and even cleaned up when my cat threw up, which I appreciated more than she knows. Her updates were reassuring, her care was thoughtful and it was clear she genuinely wanted my cat to feel comfortable while I was away. I’d absolutely request her again the next time I’m traveling.”

“Ashley was amazing with my cats. You can tell she genuinely cares about animals and pays attention to the little details.

“Emma had a great time at Patricia's house. She was very relaxed and happy when I picked her up. Patricia lives a very short drive from the Costa Mesa Fairgrounds so if you are attending an all-day event there and don't want to have to worry about leaving your furry friend to fend for themselves all day, I highly recommend leaving your pet with Patricia. She is knowledgeable about dogs and very conscientious, having gone the extra mile to ensure that Emma was not able to get to any other animal's food (since Emma has food allergies). Patricia also texted me pics during the day of Emma enjoying her walk, which further helped to make my day more enjoyable by putting my mind at ease. I will not hesitate to book with Patricia again the next time I'm in the area!”
“Bailey was awesome! She was very kind and assuring that my little dog, JJ, would be in good hands. She definitely put me at ease and stayed in touch to let me know JJ was ok. I highly recommend Bailey if you need someone reliable and especially someone who obviously loves dogs!”
“Monica is so good with my puppy Emma, she didn’t want to leave Monica’s home! Emma is very young, which is enough work by itself, but Monica is even helping to train her! We feel so lucky to have found Monica.”
“This was my first time having a dog sitter & Rona made me feel very comfortable. She kept me updated throughout the day and took good care of him. I would definitely recommend her!”
“Nikcole is great! First time meeting her and Sammy enjoyed her visit. She took care of all of Sammy's needs and kept me updated on how she was doing. See you next time! 😊”

“Jennifer and her crew were absolutely amazing with Mr Admiral. He had so much from playing with gunner and her little! From the constant communication throughout the day, the wonderful pictures and videos she loaded us with. To her following up and making sure everything went to our satisfaction with his puppy care. We've been on this app for a little short of 3 months and theyve been such a breath of fresh air. Do not hesitate to leave your critters with Jennifer, you will not regret it!

About: I am now fully available for your pet care needs!! I’ve cared for dogs my entire life. From our family pets, to finally getting my own almost 20 years ago! I now have 2 rescue dogs. I am experienced with high maintenance medical needs, as well as high energy pups. I am the go to babysitter & walker for my friends and friends of friends! I foster and volunteered through a local shelter many different dogs all shapes, sizes, and temperaments. I grew up with English Mastiffs, so big dogs don’t intimidate me at all! I love every dog I meet! My most commonly used phrase is definitely, “Can I say hi to your dog?” :) Dog sitting/walking is my only gig right now, and I am a mom to my kiddo full time. My schedule is very flexible, with lots of weekday availability, and some weekend availability, too! I have two friendly rescue dogs of my own (one medium-large mix, one pocket beagle), and love to walk them or take them to our on-property dog park!
About: What sets me apart is that I’ve had animals my entire life and currently care for two dogs (ages 3 and 10) and a cat (age 7). I’ve had my pets since they were puppies and a kitten, so I’m very familiar with caring for animals at every stage of life — from young and active to senior pets who need extra attention and patience. I have hands-on experience administering medications, including giving pills and applying daily eye drops for senior dogs. I understand how important it is to be gentle, patient, and consistent when caring for pets with specific needs. In addition to caring for my own pets, I regularly help friends and neighbors by checking in on their dogs and cats, so I’m comfortable adapting to new environments, routines, and personalities. I’m very attentive and communicative, and I make sure to send plenty of photo and video updates so you always feel comfortable and know your pets are safe, happy, and well cared for. I treat every pet like my own and focus on keeping them on their normal routine while giving them lots of attention and care. Pet care is already a big part of my daily routine since I care for my own dogs and cat every day. I’m used to early mornings, evening routines, feeding schedules, walks, and making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I currently have open availability and can accommodate visits throughout the day. Once my work schedule begins, I’ll update my availability weekly and remain available for early mornings and evenings. I’m very reliable with communication and always make sure your pets are well cared for before and after my shifts. I’m available for drop-in visits, walks, and care in your home. I do my best to stay flexible and adjust to your pet’s routine whenever possible. For cats, I’m happy to check in as often as needed to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I’m very mindful of weather and safety — I avoid walking dogs during high heat and always adjust timing to keep them safe and happy. You can count on consistent, dependable care and regular updates so you always know your pet is in good hands 🤍 In my home, I provide a safe, calm, and comfortable environment. I live in a clean two-bedroom apartment, and visiting pets stay in the main living area where I can keep a close eye on them at all times. I have multiple cozy beds and can provide crates if needed for smaller dogs or for pets who are crate-trained. I also have two friendly dogs — one who loves to play and one who is more relaxed — so I’m able to match different energy levels depending on your dog’s personality. I always prioritize safe introductions and make sure every pet feels comfortable. I focus on keeping pets active, engaged, and happy through walks, playtime, and mental stimulation using toys or activities you provide. I also make sure to follow your pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, preferred walking times, and any special instructions. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect your space and maintain your pet’s normal routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I make sure they receive plenty of attention, care, and supervision. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priority, and I treat every pet like my own.
“My dog Birdie loves Leilani! She gets so excited to pull up to her home on daycare days! I can tell she is made to feel comfortable and at home on days that I work all day. :-)”
“Yoshiko was great with Peanut and gave us plenty of updates throughout his stay! It was our first time hiring a sitter and had a lot of nerves but she was so sweet and Peanut loved her :-)”
“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!”
“Beth and Sean (and Sunny) welcomed Kenzie into their home for a couple of daytime sittings. They sent plenty of updates and pictures of her stay, which was great. Very appreciative that they accepted a booking on short notice, as well. Thank you for caring for her!”

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.

“Mark was nothing short of amazing. From communication to effort to just his love for our dog Bubbles. Bubbles is a large dog and can be a handful and Mark was patient, caring and we had complete trust in him and his abilities. We 100% recommend and will use his services again in the future.”

Plenty of time to get outside and play :) My place is pet friendly and can accommodate any special needs/set up (crate, bed, ect). I live by plenty of safe trails and walkable areas, so we can get our steps in!
About: I have grown up with animals all of my life. With busy working parents, I was often the one doing most of the animal care. I grew up with 2 large German Shepherds and 2 cats, so I am familiar with handling large breeds and taking care of multiple animals at once.

I am currently working remotely and so I will be home and available to take care of your pets. I am also completely available on the weekends. I love to be outside and walking!

I live in a nice neighborhood, making it perfect for walks for its length.
About: I have worked with all kinds of animals for over 6 years. From small animals (I have two rabbits!) to dogs, to reptiles, I have done it all! I grew up in an animal loving family and have had the opportunity to take care of many different kinds of animals. I am a college student with a lot of availability!

“I cannot recommend Katherine enough. She has been walking my two dogs for the past three months consistently 3 days a week while I work in office. My dogs can be a handful, with their bad leash habits and bad manners… Katherine has never had any issues or complained. She’s been so patient, responsible, and caring towards them, handling their craziness with love like I would. She’s also incredibly thoughtful. One particular day, I canceled due to being home from work sick and wanted to give her her lunch break back - she offered to still come, knowing I needed the rest. That meant so much and just shows the type of person she is. Katherine is dependable, communicative, and clearly loves animals. Now that I dont need a walker with work schedule changes, I want to make sure others know she’s fantastic!!! Me and my boys are so thankful for the last three months with her 🐶🐶”
About: Growing up with family dogs/ cats and caring for them has allowed me to gain a natural day to day routine for looking after all furry pets. From walking my family's dog to pet sitting my neighbors' dogs after school, I have always been hands on with their care. Cats in particular require some social and playfulness while also providing them some quiet companionship. I focus on each pet's individual needs because every animal has their own routine, personality and way they like to be loved. Pet care fits into my routine because I work part-time early shifts that allow me to have afternoons free. I am available most weekends, as well as Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday afternoons. This gives me flexibility to stop by for walks, drop-ins, or any other available pet needs. Safety and trust are key when caring for your pet. In your home, I will follow your provided routines, ensuring that there is no change in your pet's needs. I will ensure that doors and gates are securely closed and keep a close eye on your pet's body language that allows me to view their level of comfort.
“Allie and her husband were reliable, punctual, and followed all instructions carefully. Most importantly, my dogs had a great time playing with them at the dog park. I felt very comfortable trusting them with my dogs.”
About: What sets me apart is personalized, reliable care, patience with all pets, strong communication, attention to safety and routines, and treating every pet like family. I have 3 days out of the week where I don’t work and I would love to occupy my time before I start college up again with loving your pets! I provide a safe, clean home, follow each pet’s routine, ensure proper feeding, exercise, medication if needed, and give plenty of love and attention at all times!
“Brandi took amazing care of our pup while we were on our honeymoon. She went above and beyond and practiced his commands on each day she walked him. She also took him to the little dog park nearby. Communication was excellent, and we will absolutely be using her again!”
About: I know how to groom all type of dog hair if you like. They will love all the adventures we will go on. They will always feel welcomed and cared for at all times. I will shower them if you ask.

Holidays included as well. Will play with them for as long as they want(tummy rubs included). Planning to go to college to learn more about taking care of dogs full time soon. Will always go home satisfied with a full tummy and with a smile on their face. I am currently working a part time job. I do not work much so my availability is very open. My job fluctuates week by week but will always let you know ahead of time. I have a fenced home. My home is also pretty big so very spacious for any pets.

About: As a proud Pomeranian owner, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family member.

About: Hi! I’m Kyra — your pet’s new best friend 🐾 I’m a dependable, loving pet sitter with over three years of volunteer experience at the SPCA LA, where I cared for dogs and cats of all sizes, temperaments, and backgrounds.

About: I have taken care of dogs for family and friends for years now and I have previously volunteered as a dog walker for the Humane Society. I have experience with dogs as small as chihuahuas and terriers and large dogs including pit bulls and Dobermans. I’m currently not working so I’m available all day and my only responsibility is my one cat at home! Scout is pretty independent so I would be available to take care of more needy pets. Because I have my own cat I will not be allowing pets into my own home. I am very respectful of other people’s spaces and understand that pets need to feel comfortable with strangers in their home, so I will be more than respectful entering your space.

“Eunice and her husband were absolutely amazing to my girl. This was my first time leaving my pitty to a sitter and I have zero regrets. She took note of all of my reminders for her and provided me updates throughout each day that I was gone. I felt at ease throughout my vacation because of Eunice’s consistent communication. She walked her multiple times throughout the day and let her onto their furniture. A million thank yous to Eunice and her husband.”
“Sunny was great. Very accommodating and loving toward our Champ. She took Champ for walks and helped him learn to walk with a leash, as he's still a pup. She also sent pictures daily of Champ playing and while on their walks. You can sense her love for dogs as soon as you meet her. Highly recommended!”
“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!”
“Grateful they were able to accommodate us last minute! My dog is a gentle giant and they kept him safe for us for the night, I loved getting picture and videos. Thank you!”
“Absolutely wonderful sitter for our puppy! We will definitely use her services again. She sent us picture updates and was very flexible with our availability! So trustworthy and kind!”

“Wesley Archer enjoyed his visit & stay with Nicole! Having the opportunity to meet and play with other dogs at the doggie daycare was super helpful and a bonus for playtime and socialization. He looks forward to the next time he may get to go for another visit! Thank you”
“Rebecca did a great job with our dog Cookie. She provided detailed updates about cookie during the whole stay and we knew Cookie was in good hands.. We will definitely go back to Rebecca when Cookie needs boarding again. Thank you Rebecca !!”
“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!”
About: I have loved dogs my whole life, but I did not realize how deep that love could be until I adopted my first dog, Flynn, 11 years ago. He was a 90lb German Shepherd with reactivity towards other dogs, which led me down the path of learning everything I could about canine behavior and training. I have taken multiple dog training classes focused on positive reinforcement techniques and have used tools such as clicker training, prong collars, and e-collars. I learned how to navigate situations in which Flynn was reactive, making sure I had full control of a very strong dog at all times. I raised Flynn from 8 weeks old (puppy shark phase) to his calmer senior years. The challenges I faced with Flynn taught me how to read canine body language, manage reactivity, and handle high energy, strong dogs with patience and love. After losing Flynn, I thought I could never get another dog again, but come February 2024, I welcomed 7-week-old GSD mix Artemis (Artie) into my life. It has been a completely different training experience in much more challenging ways. From potty training to crate training and leash manners, she has tested everything I have learned (and helped me learn more). Every challenge and every puppy shark bite has been completely worth it. She is now thriving and continues to learn thanks to consistency, structure, and ongoing enrichment. I also have hands-on experience with senior dog care. I started caring for our elderly family dog (Socrates) after my father passed away 4 years ago. He is now a 14-year-old Dachshund Terrier mix with limited mobility and some incontinence. I provide daily care, including hygiene and administering medication, and provide a clean, comforting environment to support his quality of life. He is getting a lot of treats and love in my care. My goal is to build trust and communication to maintain a safe environment for dogs and others. Whether your dog is a puppy in training, a reactive adult, or a senior who needs special attention, I bring patience and knowledgeable care. Every dog is different, and I take the time to get to know what makes yours special. I'd love to meet them and offer care you can trust. My life revolves around my sweet pup, Artemis (aka Artie). This means that besides work and taking care of her needs, I am quite open. I work remotely some days and can drop in on your babies during the day or in the evenings. On the weekends my availability is wide open. Building trust through consistent communication is important to me. Since I know that every dog is different, I understand each has individual needs and am eager to learn them. As a dog owner, I also understand how important it is for someone who is caring for your dog to know your dog and know what they need (I'm the type who writes a whole manual for any sitter). In my home, I have a senior dog who likes his alone time and an energetic, young GSD mix dog. For daycare, your pups can interact as little or as much as appropriate. I also have a small fenced yard where I can play with the dogs.
About: I’ve had a love for animals from a very young age, especially dogs. I’ve helped my family take care of many dogs throughout the years and have also helped out friends/neighbors. In my life time, my immediate family has 4 dogs, a rottweiler, an unknown chihuahua mix, and 2 chihuahua/dachshund mix. The two chihuahua/dachshund mixes are still alive but they live in my childhood home where I no longer live but I still help take care of them when needed. I now have a dog of my own, he is a Golden Retriever and his name is Tucker. Tucker is the sweetest dog you’ll ever meet and he loves all people and animals. Although I have lots of experience with dogs, Tucker is the reason I know I would be a reliable and good choice for helping out with your animals. Tucker is the first dog I’ve ever had to take care of on my own and I think I’ve done a pretty good job. Tucker has also taught me to be responsible and dependable because unfortunately at just 6 months old he was diagnosed with sub aortic stenosis. If you don’t know what this is, it has to do with his heart, so it is not at all contagious! I wanted to include this because since he was diagnosed I’ve had to take extra good care of him and make sure he receives his medication twice a day. So I would also be a good choice if your dog is in need of medication. I hope you choose me to look after your animals! I’m currently a student-athlete who is available full-time because I have the summer completely off. I would be able to care for your pet any time of the day. This could include just dropping in to check on them, taking them on walks, going to the dog park, or staying with them over night. If you are in need of me watching your pet for multiple days, our days would include multiple walks a day and some dog park play if that is something you would want. I live in an apartment with a small balcony and a super friendly golden retriever. Although I don’t have a yard, your dog would still get lots of outside play! I often take my dog on a short walk every hour or so, and at least two longer walks every day. We also sometimes go to the dog park. I would be able to accommodate to any needs of your dog and will follow any rules or expectations given to me!
“Mia was absolutely AMAZING with our dogs! She kept us updated throughout their stay with photos and messages, and they truly looked like they were having the best time. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in such great care and getting so much love and attention while we were away. We would absolutely book with Mia again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter!”
“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!”
About: I’ve lived with and cared for a dog since I was a young girl. I have a wonderful home with space for your dogs to run and rest. I have a comfortable home and my couch is friendly and open to happy cuddles. I work in my home. I care for my family and pets. We have a friendly happy dog and 2 cats. I am happy to enjoy and care for your pets as well. Bring them for a visit and say hello to see if we are a good fit. I have a fenced back yard and a happy friendly dog that will also keep your fur baby company. I have two cats who like to stay on my bed or in a window sill watching the birds outside. My home is safe and comfortable.
“Beth and Sean, we want to thank you infinitely for taking care of my "fur-son." You were loving, responsible, and truly dedicated to caring for Vlacho. You followed all the instructions regarding his feeding, walks, and favorite games. We hope to see you in Colombia! Best regards.”
