“I felt at peace leaving my dog babies with Ning. She sent frequent videos and photos. She communicated very well and made sure my pets had their needs met. I could tell my pets felt comfortable with her and that she really is a warm person and animal lover.”
“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 so wonderful with our foster girl Alyssa. It was the first time anyone has watched us interact with Alyssa, and she was so kind to share her tips and recommendations to help the foster experience along. Not only we were able to get Patricia’s help with boarding over the weekend, but we now have tools to improve Alyssa’s chances of adoption. Patricia’s experience is so valuable and she is my first choice for any kind of care for our pup!”
“Bennie and Jennie both took care of my cat very well. They sent us daily updates every morning, evening, and night, which we enjoyed to read! I did not have to bring my own litter box since they had many including a robotic litter box. They usually have a few cats around from other families to cat-sit which is a great way for your cat to be social, even if your cat prefers to be away from other cats, they can separate your cat from the others! Overall, I had no worries when my cat was at their home”
“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.”
“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.”
“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.”
“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!”
“Diana was absolutely wonderful while caring for our dog during our vacation! From the start, she was communicative, reliable, and clearly loves what she does. She kept us updated with messages and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Our dog was happy, well cared for, and clearly received lots of attention and affection. It’s not easy leaving your pet behind, but Diana made the whole experience stress-free. We would highly recommend her to anyone and will definitely be booking with her again in the future!”
“So grateful for Rebecca and Tom. We were anxious about leaving Atticus for a long trip and Rebecca made the trip stress free for us! We could tell Atticus was having a lot of fun and made lots of friends. We received fun updates from Rebecca daily and can see that Atticus was well taken care! 10/10 recommend :) Thanks again!”
“Jesslyn was a wonderful dog sitter. Our corgi had the best weekend and we received the cutest pictures and updates. She came back extremely happy and well cared for, and Jesslyn was amazing at keeping in contact before and during her stay. I can't recommend Jesslyn enough!!”
“I cannot rave enough about Nicole. She responded to my request immediately, was extremely flexible, kind, and professional, and made my dog who can be very anxious extremely comfortable. She sent me cute pics of my pup throughout the weekend at the beach, playing with other new dog friends, and getting lots of love and attention. It made our family vacation so much better having peace of mind knowing our dog was being well taken care of. I will definitely be calling Nicole the next time we are in the Newport Beach area!”
About: I had one Abyssinian and Ragdoll cat before, so I know how to take care of those cats. I will do everything that makes the cat comfortable and happy. I am available everyday after 3 pm. I can make special schedule based on your needs. I am flexible during weekends as well. Thank you I have everything needed to provide a safe and cozy environment for cats. I have things like cat litter, brushes, wet foods, cat toys, and air filters.
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.
“Couldn’t be happier with the service Monica provided. She looked after my pup like he was her own and even helped with a bit of his training! She sent updates daily and sometimes multiple times per day with photos and videos. 100% would recommend Monica as your dog watcher”
“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!”
“We got really jammed up when the person we were expecting to watch our little pom, Bailey, over TG had a medical emergency. A friend told us about Rover. We signed up and found Liv who saved us. Liv was fast to respond, professional, caring and amazing. She took great care of our little Bailey. Which isn't easy. Bailey is a bit high strung. We could tell Bailey was well cared for. Thanks to Liv and Rover we got to see our family in San Jose. We would work with Liv again. Thanks Liv for helping us out.”
“Al is amazing! We love the daily photos that he sends us and keeping us in the loop with our Sophie. We are always at ease knowing that Sophie’s in great hands. We love Al!”

“Anna dropped in our three cats while we were away for 8 days. She was purrfect person to check in our babies and made us feel comfortable knowing they are in good care. She could have easily summarized her visits in two or three sententences but she made a report of everything we asked of her and more and reading the page or two reports that were made with such detail and care I could tell how much she loves her job as a pet guardian, it made us feel confident our cats were being shown the love and care we would give if we were there. Thank you Anna, We appreciate what you did for us !”
“Yichen was great and took awesome care of our two cat while we were away on a trip. She was super nice and met with us before our trip, and she gave great updates for each day. I would definitely have her watch our pets again and would recommend her to anyone who needs great care for their pets!”
“Vanessa is wonderful to work with. This is our second time working with her and my babies LOVE her. Always on time and sent lots of pictures :)) we appreciate her help so much!!”

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

“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.”
“Hanah and Dabin are the best daycare provider I have met so far. They are friendly, responsible, and punctual. They took our Peanut for walks multiple times a day and sent us lots of pictures and updates. I truly appreciate the care and attention they gave him. I’d strongly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy daycare provider.”
“I have a rescue dog, Audrey, with really bad separation anxiety. She howls, cries, and barks when I’m not around. Morgan is amazing!! Super friendly. Great communication. Amazing with pets!! This was the first time I’ve ever used this app and the first time I’ve ever used a sitter for my dog. Morgan sent me pictures and videos of my dog playing with her dog. She up dated me on how everything was going. I never needed to ask how things were going because she was on top of it and had already sent me some info with pictures etc. All day I was so happy knowing my dog was having fun and in good hands. I will definitely use Morgan again. I highly recommend her!!! You won’t regret it.”
“Our Milo had the greatest time and was so happy with Monica and Mammoth ❤️ we loved the updates and feel confident that he will be happy at daycare or boarding in the future :)”

“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!”
“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!”

“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.”

As well as, experience caring for senior dogs which usually included administering medication orally and helping with movement like walking up stairs, getting into bed, etc. I am currently going to school online so I have plenty of time to walk and care for your pets! I am available anytime after 7am until 5pm Sunday-Monday! I am very detail oriented when it comes to pet care, I believe that our care for our pets is a reflection of our care for ourselves. I love to give extra attention and love to my pets at home, and when I am caring for a clients animal, I treat them as my own. Sticking to a routine, attention to change in mood or behavior, and being consistent is extremely important for a pets wellbeing.
About: 20 years experience as a dog trainer. Caring for animals has always been a passion of mine. I really love what I do. This isn’t just a job for me but it’s an absolute blessing to be able to love your pet as if they were my own! I have been dog training, caring, fostering, and sitting for a long time so I know pets. I can tell when something seems off with your pet and will go above and beyond to make sure they feel safe, secured, and loved beyond words. Friends, family, and clients know that they are trusting their loved ones to a well-established, educated, and experienced professional - just call me the Dog Whisperer! Every pet is an individual with unique behavior, so I offer personalized pet care to provide the safest and most comfortable experience possible. You don’t have to wonder who is caring for your furry family members. I’m self-employed so I’ll have plenty of time to play, care for, walk, and train your pup if needed! I’m available for your doggy day care and boarding needs! ‼️VERY IMPORTANT PLEASE READ‼️ DOGGY DAY CARE is a total of 10 hours. Anything beyond that is $10 an hour. Any care that requires late pick up between 9pm-11pm an additional flat fee of $20 will incur regardless if care is under 10 hours. All fees will be modified in your Rover account. Please don’t hesitate to ask me if you have any questions. Thank you for your understanding ☺️. For boarding, Rover will automatically adjust extended stay rates as needed. If you’re looking for a place that can easily accommodate your fur baby then look no further. I have a comfy home and a friendly service dog to keep your fur baby company. They are free to roam, or I can also easily crate your dog if needed. I live in an extremely dog-friendly community that has gated and open field dog parks so your pet will have plenty of options.
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: I’m the friend who always gets the "can you watch my dog?" call because I’ve been around pups of all shapes and sizes since I was five. That lifetime of experience means I’m just as comfortable keeping up with a rambunctious puppy as I am providing a calm, gentle environment for a sweet senior who needs a little extra patience. Pet care fits perfectly into my active lifestyle. My days already revolve around long walks and staying moving, so your pup becomes my dedicated plus-one for every adventure. My schedule is flexible, and when I’m with your pet, they are my main priority—I treat their routine with the same care and focus I give my own. I treat your home and your pet with the same respect I’d want for my own. Whether we're hanging out at my place or yours, I focus on creating a secure, "paws-on" environment where routines are followed strictly so your pet feels safe. I’m all about clear updates and total transparency, so you can relax knowing they’re in good, experienced hands.
About: I 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 a huge animal lover and have always been a natural pet caregiver. The well-being of animals is my top priority. 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 can’t wait to take lovely long walks with pets. Additionally, my favorite pastime is cuddling with furry friends on the couch!
About: I've always been a cat lover! I had two kittens since I was 17 years old, but I had to leave them at home (Bay Area) when I went to school in SoCal. In 2023 I adopted my own Siamese kitten! Since adoption I have taught him how to do tricks and harness trained him to go on walks! I also regularly clip his nails and brush his fur and bathe him once in awhile so I know how to be gentle with cats and to groom them without agitating them.I am also a super calm person and can handle cats that are anxious/territorial and have experience in giving medication in various forms such as liquid, pills, and injections. I am currently a PhD student at UCI. My daily schedule is usually very flexible as I do partially work from home. I make my own schedule for the most part which means that I'll be able to accomodate your pet's schedule. I live in a three story house with lots of space. My room is also a huge master bedroom full of cat shelves as well as scratching posts and plenty of space for cats to run and jump around. I have a litter robot in addition to a regular litter box which means that the cats won't have to worry about a dirty bathroom and even get to choose which one they want to use! I have a super friendly cat who is playful and respectful! He's super chill and loves other cats so you don't need to worry about him! My sister does have a dog, but she is gone most of the time as she loves to travel. There will also be a barrier that separates the dog from where the cats will be so there will be NO CONTACT between the cats and the dog. Your cats' safety is my priority and I have a few cameras around so I will always be able to monitor your cats even if I am not physically present.
About: I have grown up with small and big dogs, so I feel comfortable with all breeds. I have spent years volunteering at a shelter socializing and training dogs. I own a Doberman which has required me to become a skilled handler. Training and exercise are very important to me for dogs to receive, I strive to fulfill their needs! I am more than happy to provide training and socialization for your pup by taking them to public places (that allow dogs) after exercising them! Availability: I have the most availability in the afternoons, after 1 pm, but I am more than happy to try and accommodate! Working early mornings allows me to have the rest of the day to devote to the dogs I am caring for. I am an active person so daily long walks, adventures, and time outside is important to me I only take on the responsibility of one dog at a time to ensure that they get my full attention and care. It is important to me that they are prioritized and enriched from their activities with me

I focus on making each visit calm, positive, and reliable so your pup actually looks forward to seeing me. I have experience training puppies, so I’m gentle and consistent while helping them build good habits.

“I felt at peace leaving my dog babies with Ning. She sent frequent videos and photos. She communicated very well and made sure my pets had their needs met. I could tell my pets felt comfortable with her and that she really is a warm person and animal lover.”
“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 so wonderful with our foster girl Alyssa. It was the first time anyone has watched us interact with Alyssa, and she was so kind to share her tips and recommendations to help the foster experience along. Not only we were able to get Patricia’s help with boarding over the weekend, but we now have tools to improve Alyssa’s chances of adoption. Patricia’s experience is so valuable and she is my first choice for any kind of care for our pup!”
“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.”
“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!”
“So grateful for Rebecca and Tom. We were anxious about leaving Atticus for a long trip and Rebecca made the trip stress free for us! We could tell Atticus was having a lot of fun and made lots of friends. We received fun updates from Rebecca daily and can see that Atticus was well taken care! 10/10 recommend :) Thanks again!”
“I cannot rave enough about Nicole. She responded to my request immediately, was extremely flexible, kind, and professional, and made my dog who can be very anxious extremely comfortable. She sent me cute pics of my pup throughout the weekend at the beach, playing with other new dog friends, and getting lots of love and attention. It made our family vacation so much better having peace of mind knowing our dog was being well taken care of. I will definitely be calling Nicole the next time we are in the Newport Beach area!”
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.
“Couldn’t be happier with the service Monica provided. She looked after my pup like he was her own and even helped with a bit of his training! She sent updates daily and sometimes multiple times per day with photos and videos. 100% would recommend Monica as your dog watcher”
“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!”
“Croissant was really happy staying with Sungjin! He was prompt with replies and active in updating us with her walks and how she’s been doing, so we feel really at ease leaving our babygirl with Sungjin. Thank you so much for your love in taking care of her!”
“Trust this woman with your baby ❤️ ! I had THE best experience. I will never use anyone but Kelli . First of all , my dog DeDe needed a place last minute and Kelli was available thank god! We weren’t comfortable leaving her with her other sitter due to time conflicts and personal reasons . Kelli stepped up and took DeDe . I got videos and pictures from her all of the days I was away . She knew we were very nervous to leave her with anyone new . I was so happy to be able to see where she lived . Kelli is so sweet and loving you can feel in her energy how much she loves dogs ?. My doggy was so spoiled and loved on . Best experience ever!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND KELLI”
“They took wonderful care of our fur baby while we were away for the weekend! We loved getting photo and video updates of him playing and making new friends. It was the perfect fit since he’s such a hyper, social butterfly. Thank you so much, Bernard & Hung, for treating him like your own. We’ll definitely be booking again in the future!”
