“Linda is very friendly and caring for our dog, Moca. They get along very well. Gives us update and send us pictures. She’s also very understanding about Moca’s behavioral changes due to loneliness and anxiety issues after losing his brother, Bowser. Moca likes staying in her house that he almost doesn’t want to leave when we’re about to go home. Highly recommended.”
“Absolutely wonderful experience from start to finish! Lorelle was so attentive to our dog Gracie and sent updates with photos daily. I have never felt so good about leaving my dog! Lorelle was excellent and I highly recommend. Feel so blessed to have found her!”
“Andrea and her husband are the best; if possible, I would never use another sitter to watch our dog. She’s so well taken care of in their hands, and we feel so comfortable leaving her with them. Couldn’t speak more highly of our experiences”
“We booked Marta for a 15-day stay while we were away, and we really appreciated how well she cared for Milo. When our flight was delayed, she was super flexible and had no problem extending his stay by an extra day, which was such a relief. She kept us updated with plenty of photos and messages, giving us peace of mind throughout our trip. She also shared helpful tips to keep our dog healthy. Overall, we’re grateful to have had her look after our pup and keep him happy and safe while we were gone!”
“Michael was a great local find for our Vizsla, Jupiter. He responded right away to a last minute request and Jupiter definitely enjoyed his visit there. Michael sent photos and texts. Perfect find.”
“Jocelyn was attentive, response, kind and patient to my little Almond. I received many pictures and updates during her stay. I am extremely grateful and would highly recommend Jocelyn!”
“I highly recommend Muskaan! Sully was acting off on the day I brought him to her and she was very reassuring. She sent me plenty of daily updates with pictures and videos so that I knew Sully was doing well. He was walked twice a day and got lots of love. It was a great experience.”
“This is a 5 star hotel for cats! I highly recommend it, and so does my cat! Very clean, roomy, attentive and I received pictures and videos of my cat daily. I could never go back to the cramped quarters of other places. Thank you for your incredible attention and care to my cat! 🐈”
“Lan was amazing! She was quick and responsive and sent so many videos and pictures, which really put my mind at ease while I was away. I always knew my dog was well taken care of and that her schedule was being followed to a T. My dog also absolutely loved her kids. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience and feel so lucky to have found her. I will definitely be rebooking!”
“Our girl had a wonderful time while we were gone. This was evident by the daily reports, videos, and pictures. She was relaxed and happy when we picked her up. We will definitely use Ray (William) again for our future trips. It’s so fantastic to have peace of mind when we leave our fur baby.”
“Chloe once again took incredible care of my boy! She is patient and I can tell she truly gets to know the animal, their likes, wants, needs, etc. I will trust her again and again. Thank you, Chloe🤍”
“Wen was great with Maggie! Took her on several walks and sent me updated throught her stay. Wen is very responsive and kind. Maggie came home happy. I’ll book with Wen again for sure.”
“Mirna did a wonderful job at helping us with our 2 boys. She is flexible, attentive, trustworthy and caring. We feel completely comfortable leaving our dogs with her. And our dogs enjoy their time with her. Would strongly recommend.”
“Tyrie was wonderful to my senior Doberman, Jimmy, and sent me pics during my week vacation. We had a meet and greet before his booking and she asked all of the right questions for clarification. I could tell Jimmy was comfortable during his stay with her. I will definitely keep Tyrie in mind for any future boarding needs. 10/10 for Tyrie!”
“Sandra was super nice and communicative through the whole stay about what they were up to and sending pictures. Our dog seemed to really enjoyed staying with their family and got along great with their dog Mocha. Will definitely reach out to Sandra the next time we need a sitter.”
“Katie was absolutely wonderful with our girl, Sophie!! She sent updates every morning and evening keeping our little hearts at peace while far away from our baby!! Our baby girl is older and requires a little TLC with her diabetes and Katie administered her medication with zero problems!!! I would highly recommend Katie!!! We will definitely be using her services in the future!! Thank you!!!”

“Bani is absolutely amazing! She took such great care of Cash and treated him like her own baby. I felt completely secure and comfortable having him board with her, even for a couple of weeks. She and her family were so attentive, loving, and patient with him. I really appreciated the daily photo updates, they always gave me peace of mind and made me smile. I highly recommend Bani to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter. Cash can’t wait to visit again!”

“Rachel is wonderful. Under her care my cat Tinky thrived. Tink developed a middle ear infection right before the Two week Xmas break from school. We had a trip planned to visit family for Christmas. We didn’t know what to do. A friend suggested using rover as they were using rover for their dog during the holidays break. We met Rachael and she put me at ease letting me know she had 4 cats of her own and her mom’s cat had previously had a middle ear infection. I felt confident she would know how to take care of Tinky. And she did. She gave her two kinds of medicine twice a day. Sent photos and updates. I didn’t worry at all because she was so thoughtful, caring and an expert with meds. Tinky was a happy kitty when we got home thank you Rachel.”

“Katie is so kind and generous with her time and took great care with our babies. When we had a delay in our travels home she was very quick to respond and schedule extra drop-ins which made us feel at ease. We will definitely be using Katie again and highly recommend her.”
“Amanda is truly amazing. She’s sweet, professional and treats the pets under her care like her own. Our boys love her and it’s such a load off my mind when I have to go out of town. I cannot recommend her enough!”
“I was very nervous leaving my kittens for the first time. Jameel did an amazing job. Daily updates, open communication, and went above and beyond to clean up my place when he didn’t need to! I would 100% recommend him to others and plan on using him anytime I need to travel”
About: We all know cats are the head of the household. When caring for your kitties, I will be sure to make them feel like the royalty they are! I have done both live-in and drop-in care for cats, and I love it all. Getting to bond with a special new fuzzy friend and make them feel loved while their person is away brings me so much joy. I can't wait to care for your furry family members!
About: I have lived with cats all my life and have developed an extreme love for all felines! I treat my own cats as family rather than just pets and would treat yours with the same care! I have experience admitting medications to cats as well as giving them lots of attention and playtime :3
About: I had only been a dog owner for 15 years when my coworker’s cat suddenly had a kitten 2 years ago and I suddenly became a godmother! I took care of this kitten named Etta ever since she was 2 months old and babysat her a couple weekends per month whenever she needed help looking after Etta since she already had 4 cats in the house. Ever since then I’ve become a cat lover!
“Our beloved Sugaree crossed the Rainbow Bridge 3 weeks ago Erika was such a great companion for lonely Usul! We trust her completely—she does an excellent job of taking care of the home and our beloved kitty”
“Shahla was incredible! She watched my cat and rabbit for about a week and sent me constant pictures, videos, and updates. I only expected her to clean the litter box and feed them, but by day 2, she was playing with them and giving them love. I was surprised because both animals are very shy to new people, but they must have sensed her natural instinct and warmed up to her immediately. I’m so grateful for her and will definitely use her again.”
“Julia was beyond professional and friendly! She was on time to all appointments. Communication was great. Kitty was well taken care of and we appreciate that! We have already booked Julia again! Thank you!”
“Absolutely love Randi! Great communication and a very kind heart She was very passionate about taking care of my cat. Not just the normal stuff... feeding, litter box cleaning. But very dedicated to socializing and playing with the cat.”
“Cass took such wonderful care of our cats while we were out of town for the weekend! She was consistent with her visits, played with them, sent us pictures every visit, and kept in constant communication with us. She brought so much peace of mind for my family knowing our cats were showered with so much love and care! Thank you Cass!! ✨”
About: I grew up taking care of my three dogs as well as friends and families pets as needed. I have been responsible for house sitting, walking and bathing dogs for about 2 years. I am currently home for summer break from university of Oregon. I don’t have a job at the moment so I have a ton of available especially during the week.

About: I have always had pets growing up and I loved to take care of them. I also often watched my neighbors dogs when they were on vacation. I love being around pups and love to be active, go on walks and play with them. Starting in August, I’ll be working in Irvine from 7:30-4pm, so I’ll be away during the workday. On weekends, I’ll be home most of the day studying, which gives me plenty of time to spend with your pet. They’ll get lots of attention, walks, snuggles and play time throughout the day :) I do not have any other pets or children. I like to create a relaxing and calm atmosphere so your pets feel safe and comfortable while you're away.

“I took a "test drive" with Mark, leaving my dogs with him for a day. He was a great match for my 2 older dogs. He knew how to match their energy and had a very calm presence when they first met him. My pups will usually bark at people when they first met them but not at Mark. They were fine with him for a full day. He took them for a walk and they were fine for him. My "party pup" wanted more pets from Mark before we left. I definitely recommend Mark for a calm & comfortable person & place of care.”
“We really appreciate Pili accommodate our very last minute request and being flexible. She takes great care of our puppy. She was very diligent with frequent updates and pictures and our puppy was very happy when we picked her up at the end of the day care!”

“Wonderful experience with Lan! We had a last minute daycare request and Lan replied within minutes. She was very kind and took great care of Ozzy. She sent us lots of pictures and videos.”
About: I have a good experience caring for senior dogs because I had my own dog who passed away three years ago. He was a 17-year-old Lhasa Apso and had been my best friend since I was born. He was blind and had trouble moving around, so I learned how to help him safely and give him the care and attention he needed. Over the past three years, I’ve also taken care of puppies, active dogs, older dogs, and dogs that needed medication, for quick walks, overnight stays and even long periods such as a 5 week stay. I’ve even cared for kittens and senior cats, making sure they were happy, healthy, and well looked after. This experience has taught me patience, responsibility, and how to care for pets with different needs and personalities. Monday: 5:00 PM – 9:00 PM (parents home all day) Tuesday: All day (parents home all day) Wednesday: 5:00 PM – 9:00 PM (parents home all day) Thursday: 5:00 PM – 9:00 PM (parents home all day) Friday: 5:00 PM – 9:00 PM (parents home all day) Saturday: All day (parents home all day) Sunday: All day (parents home all day) • Available for dog walking, pet sitting, and daycare. • Can care for pets while parents are home on weekends. • Evening weekday care after school; some flexibility for short walks or check-ins. I always make sure pets are safe, happy, and comfortable in my care. I follow owners’ instructions carefully, give medications when needed, and make sure animals are never left alone in unsafe situations. Pets staying at my house will always be one at a time(unless from the same household) to ensure they get my full attention. I have a two-story house with a fenced backyard in a safe neighborhood, and we’re close to a public park for walks and playtime. Pets can enjoy a clean, calm, and secure environment, and owners can trust me to treat their animals with love, attention, and respect at all times.
“Tyrie was able to help me with doggy day care very last minute. My dog Frank had a great day with her and enjoyed himself immensely! I am very grateful for Tyrie’s efficient and quick response time and loving doggy daycare! Book with confidence!”
“Stella was quick to respond and was able to accommodate watching my dog on short notice. She was very friendly and gave frequent updates during her time watching him. Would definitely use her again and recommend her”
About: I am retired as of a few years ago, and we just lost our Bailey girl at 14 years old a few years back. I haven’t adopted a new dog since and instead am taking care of our kids dogs when they go out of town but do miss having a dog around. I’ve cared for about 6 dogs over my lifetime, and would love to care for your pup too. We have a huge yard that is fenced in for them to go out and play and a large neighborhood great for walks. A few of the dogs I have taken care, love to run in our backyard because there is room for them to run. Since I’m retired I have plenty of free time to take care of and play with pups. I love dogs and enjoy interacting with them. I want them to be happy and safe. I have a large, fully fenced in backyard and a separate fenced in side yard both of which can be closed and keep the dog inside. I also welcome any crates if a dog feels more comfortable in a crate at night. If a dog is well behaved at night, they could also bring a bed and sleep next to our bed.
“Mirna was fantastic and took great care of our puppy! We didn’t even have to ask for photos, videos or updates because she just sent them and it was definitely a great reassurance that he was in good hands. Her kids were great as well! Thanks Mirna”

“Erica did a great job. I got home early and found my dogs, calm quiet, and very contented. Erica was out on a walk by herself. As I told her she could do when I got back she returned about 15 - 20 minutes later. And, she offered to, and did, take my pups on another walk to wear them out for the evening. I was very happy with her care of my dogs. In fact, I had already lined her up for a four day house/dog sitting job. After this any qualms I had vanished!”
About: I was born in the UK and have had dogs my whole life—growing up on a big country property, we always had furry companions! My childhood was spent with a Corgi and later an Irish Setter. Since moving here in my 30's, we’ve had many wonderful rescue dogs, including a particularly mischievous Beagle! We’re dedicated dog parents (note: my husband (background checked too) is also available when needed) who love training our pups but also spoiling them with love. Senior dogs hold a special place in our hearts (our current pup is a senior), but we also adore the energy and antics of younger dogs. Having recently used ROVER for our own dogs, we completely understand the hesitation of leaving your pets with someone new. But rest assured—we’ll treat your dogs like family, with plenty of love, cuddles, walks, and affection. We can’t wait to meet your furry friend! We specialize in the small dog variety!! We work from home every day, with our dogs always nearby as we go about our day. We rarely go out in the evenings, and our pups sleep in our room at night. We truly love spending time at home with our furry companions! We have a fenced back patio and a doggy door, making it easy for pups to come and go. We love going on walks and will make sure your dog gets plenty of exercise. We want your dog to feel completely comfortable—whether that means using their own bedding or a crate if you prefer. We also understand that routines are important and are happy to follow your dog's schedule!

“We had such an amazing experience! She took incredible care of Benny and truly went above and beyond. It was so clear how much love and attention she gave him. She also sent tons of updates, which gave us so much peace of mind. We could tell Benny was happy, relaxed, and completely comfortable the whole time. We’re so grateful and would absolutely trust her with Benny again. Highly recommend!”

About: I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember. I’m always excited whenever I see an animal. One of my former jobs was at Starbucks and whenever I got to see a puppy or a different pet in the Drive thru with their owner, I’ll always get super excited. I’ve been taking care of animals for 14 years and I’ve had experience with various different kinds of pets. Such as, cats, a dog, a rabbit, a leopard gecko, a parakeet and a rat. I’ve also worked at pet store for a year and learned even more about how to take care of animals. I even trained the birds there. Animals make the world a little better. I’m also a very patient and friendly person who will treat your pets as if they’re my own. I will always make sure to go above and beyond for your pets. I will listen to all directions given by owner. I have two dog parks located in my apartment complex and another park located close by. I work weekdays and always have weekends off! However, I will always make time for your pet no matter what. Taking care of pets comes natural to me and it’s so fun that it doesn’t even feel like a chore. I will give your pets a lot of love and will always take their safety in consideration. I’ll keep them crated with approval if there is an issue and keep a close eye on them to make sure they’re ok.
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was a little kid, I was always watching my neighbors pets. Since then I was a dog dad to a German Shepard/Rottweiler mix. I currently walk dogs on the WAG! app as well and have 18 five star reviews. Pet care fits into my daily routine very well. I am a full time photographer and create a schedule to fit my photography and pet care. I treat all pets as if they are my pet. I love to give pets and scratches but will make sure the pet is healthy and well taken care of. During the walk I make sure to have water and check in with the dog to make sure they aren’t too hot or tired.
About: I’m currently a zookeeper in training at the Teaching Zoo at Moorpark College, graduating this May with an associate’s degree. I work hands on with both exotic and domestic animals, learning about behavior, body language, and proper handling. This experience helps me stay calm, patient, and attentive with every pet I work with. Through my training experience, I’ve worked with a variety of species, including a tiger, a blind raven, a squirrel monkey, an armadillo, and many more which has strengthened my understanding of behavior, patience, and building trust with different personalities. I also had the opportunity to briefly volunteer with Guide Dogs for the Blind, where I assisted with kennel cleaning, daily walks, feeding, and enrichment for dogs of various personalities. My animal care experience includes feeding, administering medications, cleaning enclosures, providing enrichment, walking animals, and maintaining consistent daily routines. I’m comfortable with energetic dogs, as well as shy or anxious personalities, and I’m confident following specific routines like feeding schedules, walks, and enrichment. I always focus on making pets feel safe, understood, and genuinely cared for while their owners are away Thanks for checking me out! I’d love to meet you and your pet! 😊 My schedule is currently very flexible! I am finishing up my program at The Teaching Zoo at Moorpark College and graduating real soon! This allows me to dedicate consistent, focused time to pet care rather than rushing through visits. I am available on the weekends for drop-in visits and walks, and I'm specifically focusing on providing reliable daytime care. I am currently not offering boarding or weekend services, as I want to make sure I can give each pet my full attention and consistency during the week :) I always prioritize making pets feel safe, comfortable, and understood. I take the time to learn each pets personality, routine, and any specific needs before starting care. Through my background working with animals, I’m very familiar with reading body language and handling different temperaments calmly, whether that’s an energetic dog or a more shy or nervous pet. I’m also comfortable following detailed instructions and administering medications if needed. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and keep everything as close to their normal routine as possible. I stay attentive during walks, make sure doors and leashes are secure, and focus on creating a low stress, safe environment. I also enjoy sending updates and photos so you can feel reassured while you’re away! That's always my favorite part :)
“Did absolutely amazing with our rescue dog. Sent me pictures and videos, even made sure she drank water and that she was comfortable before putting her back in her kennel. 100% recommend her to walk your fur babies!”
About: I am retired as of a few years ago, and we just lost our Bailey girl at 14 years old a few years back. I haven’t adopted a new dog since and instead am taking care of our kids dogs when they go out of town but do miss having a dog around. I’ve cared for about 6 dogs over my lifetime, and would love to care for your pup too. We have a huge yard that is fenced in for them to go out and play and a large neighborhood great for walks. A few of the dogs I have taken care, love to run in our backyard because there is room for them to run. Since I’m retired I have plenty of free time to take care of and play with pups. I love dogs and enjoy interacting with them. I want them to be happy and safe. I have a large, fully fenced in backyard and a separate fenced in side yard both of which can be closed and keep the dog inside. I also welcome any crates if a dog feels more comfortable in a crate at night. If a dog is well behaved at night, they could also bring a bed and sleep next to our bed.
About: Hi there! I bring years of hands on experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and needs including my own husky and several senior pups requiring medical support and vet visits. Over my lifetime, I’ve owned and loved five dogs, and I understand the importance of treating every pet like family. Beyond pet care, I’ve been entrusted to look after luxury homes in Coto de Caza, Dove Canyon, Ladera Ranch, Irvine, and Newport. For over four years, I managed weekly household needs to coordinating with maids, landscapers, pool services, and more. I’ve cared for estates valued at $1-10 million, always leaving them spotless and secure. Whether it’s keeping up with energetic huskies, tending to senior dogs with extra care, or making sure your home is in perfect order, you can count on me to handle it all with reliability and professionalism. Rest assured I’ve got you (and your pets) covered. I’m available most days and love spending my time with pets. My own husky enjoys running 1-2 times a day, so staying active is already part of my routine. At home, I also care for two cats, so I’m comfortable balancing different personalities and needs. I treat every pet as if they were my own. Over the years, I’ve learned how to build trust quickly—even the shyest cats seem to warm up to me. I provide a safe, caring, and consistent environment where pets feel secure and loved.

“Kenna was absolutely wonderful—professional, communicative, and so caring. My pup adored her, and it was clear she went above and beyond to make sure she felt comfortable. 10/10, I’ll definitely be booking again!”
“Erika went above and beyond from day one. I had just rescued a very nervous dog and contacted her in panic — she responded immediately and came the same day to help. She took the time to sit with my dog multiple times so he could get comfortable, and her patience, warmth, and communication have been amazing. I’ve now hired her permanently and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy dog walker.”
