“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.”
“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!”
“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.”
“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.”
“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!”
“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!”
“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!”
“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!”
“Ashley was amazing with our two girls! They loved being with her and got plenty of attention. I was happy to receive lots of pictures of their dog park outings too! They came home freshly bathed and very happy. We will definitely rebook with Ashley again.”
“So grateful for Candi. My puppy had a wonderful stay and she was so accommodating, agreeing to take him just a few weeks before the Thanksgiving holiday. Our return flight ended up being cancelled and we weren't able to pick him up for a full day later than planned. Candi was so kind to change her plans and keep him an extra day. It was such a comfort to know he was in good hands. Thank you!”
“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!!”

“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 !”
About: I have many years of experience taking care of cats, I grew up in a household that always took in local strays.

Chelsea sent great updates and pictures so that comforted me to know that my cat was in good hands 😊 Thanks Chelsea! I'll definitely use you again next time we are out of town!”
About: I’m a big cat person as well! We recently rescued another kitty after losing our last one. Our newest addition battled a 2 month long respiratory infection so I’m well equipped to administer any medication your cat may need too. You can trust me to clean litter boxes thoroughly and provide plenty of love to your furry baby❤️

“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!”

“Patricia is incredibly professional, kind and someone I was able to trust when a friend couldn’t watch my kitty during my vacation, and at the last minute!

“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.”
“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!”
“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.”

About: What sets me apart is the combination of genuine love for animals, consistent reliability, and attention to each pet's unique needs. I don’t just watch dogs—I build trust with them. I take the time to learn their routines, quirks, and what makes them feel safe and happy. Whether it’s a playful pup or a shy senior, I adjust my care to suit their personality. I also keep owners updated with photos and check-ins, so they feel just as at ease as their dog does. For me, it’s not just a job—it’s a responsibility I take seriously and a joy i look forward to every time. I work from home full-time, which gives me the flexibility to provide consistent care and attention throughout the day. My fiancé is also home, so between the two of us, there’s always someone around to walk, play with, or cuddle your pup. Our home is calm, pet-friendly, and we both love having animals around—it’s honestly a joy, not a chore. Pet care fits perfectly into our routine and brings a lot of happiness to our day! Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or the client’s, my priority is always making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. In my home, I create a calm environment with plenty of space to play, rest, and get attention throughout the day. I stick closely to their usual routines—feeding, walks, meds, whatever they need.
“Hector was a life saver when we needed someone to watch our Murphy. He is a wonderful person, kind, and patient. Welcomed us (and Murphy) and we really felt he was in great hands for the day. Thank you, Hector! We will definitely rebook with you anytime we’re in town!”
“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!”
“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 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.
“I did daycare with Tommy and my pug was in great hands. He came home a happy boy. I also had him to a drop in visit to check on my cat while I was out of town and Tommy even brought my packages in and cleaned up cat puke. Great with communication and great with both dogs and cats. Highly recommend!”
“Derek took exceptional care of my pup. She got to go for walks and play. She was happy and content when she came back home. Communication is excellent. Derek is also very accommodating to scheduling and care needs. Best care we’ve had for my pup. Highly recommend.”
“BOOK WITH JEANNE!! Jeanne was absolutely amazing with our pups, Louis and Arlo! She went above and beyond to keep them happy with all kinds of enrichment toys, plenty of walks, and tons of playtime with her and her other doggies. When we picked them up, they were totally tuckered out, which was perfect since we were exhausted from the Disney parks! She lives near the parks which is super convenient—only minutes from most hotels near the parks, which made drop-off and pick-up so easy. Jeanne kept us in the loop the whole time with great updates and lots of photos/videos! The care she gave was top-notch. Thank you so much, Jeanne, for taking such amazing care of our babies!”
“Rebecca is fantastic! My boy had a great day with her full of activity. When I picked him up, he laid on her front steps like he didn’t want to leave. I highly recommend Rebecca and will definitely be back!”

“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.”

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. I also live in a quiet neighborhood so they will not have to worry about loud sounds.
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 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!

“This was my first time getting services via Rover rather than being the dog walker/sitter and Racheal was AWESOME. It was a super last minute request (night before, late) and she answered promptly and was there when we needed her. She sent photos and gave me an update on how the walk went with my dog, Basil. During a hectic day at work, it was such a relief to receive those photos and know Basil was well taken care of. I would highly recommend Racheal and will definitely ask her for future dog walks!!”

I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can have peace of mind knowing their pets are happy and in good hands.
About: I love spending time with animals, especially dogs. My two daughters adore them too. Walks are a fun, loving way to connect and care for pets. I’m available for walks or pet care every day of the week. My schedule is open from 8:30 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. Just message me! I prefer to care for pets in my home, where they can enjoy a safe, calm, and loving environment. Tell me if you want in your house is ok!
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 really treat every dog like they’re my own — because I know what that love feels like. I have a dog named Ace who’s been with me for five years, and caring for him has taught me patience and trust is. 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 also understand the extra care seniors need — slower walks, comfort, mobility support, and keeping an eye on medications and routines. My goal is simple: keep your dog safe, happy, and loved while you’re away, also keep you updated. I have lots of treats if allowed. FIRST TIME DISCOUNTS AVAILABLE My schedule is an open book. I do work part time so I do have plenty of time to respond and make due. Please feel free to message me anytime. I will respond as soon as possible. I provide attentive care tailored to each pet’s routine and personality. In my home or a client’s home, I follow feeding schedules, refresh water, clean litter boxes, administer basic medications if needed, and ensure a safe environment. I also prioritize playtime at the dog park or ate home, affection, and regular check-ins to keep pets comfortable. I have a fenced in yard and kennels if needed.

“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!”
“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!”
“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!”
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.
“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!”
“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.”
“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!”
“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!”
About: Always been a dog lover all my life. After pandemic I have experience with dog rescues and transporting animals out of shelters to their fosters and rescue base. I have also taken them to vet appointments and dog/cat sat and baby sat for over 10 years. I work full time and weekends I stay home. When it comes to animals as soon as I see them wake up I take them out. I try to take dogs out 4 or more times a day. Love being out doors with dogs and enjoy putting them first with their needs especially medical experience with senior animals When it comes to animals as soon as I see them wake up I take them out. I try to take dogs out 4 or more times a day. Love being out doors with dogs and enjoy putting them first with their needs especially medical experience with senior animals. I'm very thorough on instructions given to be by families. I like to clean and make sure families homes are returned the same way I receive them. If not better. I take pride in the trust of families share with me and I do them. Community and communication is important
“Kun did a fantastic job as always! This is my second time leaving Blue with her and I always receive updates and see that she is getting a ton of attention and care. Definitely recommend!”
“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!”
