Dog Boarding Walnut Village

“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.”

“We had a wonderful experience! They were incredibly kind, communicative, and kept us updated throughout the day with plenty of photos and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind. Our puppy looked like he was having an absolute blast and came home happily exhausted from all the fun. It was clear he was well cared for and enjoyed spending time with them and Evan. We would absolutely book with them again in the future. Thank you both (and thank you, Evan!) for taking such great care of our pup!”

“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.”

“I'm happy to share my experience with Bennie and Jennie who took care of my baby Nori while I was away. Right from the start, their professionalism, warmth, and genuine love for animals shone through. They took note of her routines, preferences, and her diet which showed me that they provided care that felt personalized and attentive. They also kept me updated daily with pictures/videos of Nori's activities. Each update was sent with a short note, highlighting her mood, changes in appetite, and the ways she was interacting. Moreover, they won over her trust and it was clear that Nori formed a bond with them and their adorable kitten, Kevin! For any cat owner looking for peace of mind, I can't recommend Bennie and Jennie enough!”

“Katie is absolutely fantastic. She is so thoughtful and caring for the pups. She took the time to make sure our dog, who has had separation anxiety, was acclimated well to her new environment. She also provided a lot of activity and fulfillment for the dogs - lots of walks, crate time, treat works etc. Katie was so communicative during the dog sitting with regular updates and the cutest photos and videos. I cannot recommend her enough.”

Alysha J.

“Kun is wonderful! It is always scary leaving your furry family members behind when traveling. It's hard to know who to trust. Kun took such good care of our fur babies, kept us updated with messages and video, and was such a joy to work with. I cannot recommend her enough ❤️”

Allison G.

“Booking with Eunice was amazing and the experience exceeded all my expectations. Right from the start, she was incredibly responsive and eager to watch my dog. During my dog's stay, she was very professional and maintained a steady schedule of updates to let me know how everything was going. From first contact to pickup at the end, everything was smooth and I was very confident that she was taking excellent care of my dog. I will happily book with Eunice in the future!”

Simon H.

“Booked Thavery for 8 day boarding. She sent photos and updates of Harold on a daily basis. I felt at ease while Harold was in her care; she walks several times a day. And he likes hanging out with her Dexter, good company. I highly recommend!”

Julie B.

“Communicated great and super sweet! Would definitely book again.”

Allie V.

“I was in need of a last-minute dog sitting service to watch my dog, Sid… I luckily found Cal and his family through Rover. He sent pictures of Sid everyday to update how he was doing and he has a small dog that got along with my dog very well….happy with the service… Recommend him highly.”

Kent A.

“Rebecca took wonderful care of my dog! She was attentive, caring, and sent lots of photos and updates. My dog was so happy with her. We will definitely book with her again!”

Karina P.

“This is the first time we have had a pet sitter take care of Ralph. Charlene and her family are the best! They sent me pictures of Ralph every day. They made me feel at ease. Ralph seems to like them too. I would like to ask for her help again! Thank you very much!!”

About: Hi, I’m Emily! We are a loving family of four, my husband, our 10-year-old son, myself, and our very active 13-month-old Shiba Inu, Nala. As dog owners ourselves, we know firsthand how stressful it can be to find someone you truly trust to care for your dog while you’re away. After recently searching for a sitter for Nala, I realized how important it is to find someone who will care for your dog like family, because that’s exactly what they are. My goal is to provide you with peace of mind, knowing your dog will be safe, loved, and cared for in our home as if they were my own. After spending 25+ years in the telecom industry, I am now a stay-at-home mom, which gives me the time and flexibility to provide attentive, personalized care for the pets I welcome into our home. Your furry family member will receive plenty of attention, companionship, supervision, and love throughout the day, with their safety, comfort, and happiness always being my top priorities. We are located in a quiet, safe neighborhood in Irvine with several nearby parks and walking trails. Nala enjoys four walks a day, and I am happy to provide the same level of activity for your pup based on their needs, energy level, and routine. We also have a spacious home with a secure, fenced grassy backyard that offers both sunny and shaded areas for dogs to relax, explore, bird watch, or simply enjoy outdoor time. I understand every dog has different routines and comfort levels, so I do my best to make their stay feel as close to home as possible. Nala sleeps in a crate at night, but I am happy to accommodate your dog’s normal sleeping arrangements, whether that’s a crate, dog bed, or out in the open. We treat pets like family in our home, so dogs are welcome on the couch, bed, and in the spaces they’re used to enjoying if that aligns with your preferences and home rules. I am also happy to follow your dog’s specific care routine, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise needs, sleep preferences, and any special instructions that help them feel comfortable and secure. I know being away from your pup can be hard, so I’m happy to send regular photo and update check-ins to help you feel connected and reassured while you’re away. To ensure personalized attention and a calm environment, I only host one guest dog at a time, so your pup receives lots of one-on-one love and care while staying with us. I do ask that dogs are comfortable around children and other dogs, and are reasonably house-trained and comfortable spending short periods indoors when needed. I want you to feel completely comfortable leaving your furry family member in my care, and I am happy to answer any questions you may have before booking. I look forward to welcoming your pup into our home and treating them like part of the family!

“She was great with my new rescues and the dogs seemed very well taken care of.”

“2nd stay for the pup w/ Allison, and it was even better than the last! She sent consistent photos & updates - we were surprised (& happy) to hear that Zen also got along w/ her cat, Kenya! ☺️ Allison will definitely be a go-to sitter in the future!”

Richelle G.

“Wen was absolutely wonderful with our mini Bichon Frise, Tory, who stayed with her for four nights. She kept us updated every day with plenty of photos and responded promptly to all our questions. Tory came home happy and well cared for. We’re so glad to have found such a reliable sitter and will definitely book with her again. Highly recommended!”

“Jesslyn was so great with our 8 year old dog, Bubba. He came back happy and relaxed. She was great about sending pictures and updates. We have already booked with her again for an upcoming trip. I highly recommend Jesslyn!”

Shama M.

“Patricia was an absolute blessing! We needed a boarder for a last min tire trip and she ensured us that our girl Kona would be safe and happy with her. Patricia sent us lots of pics and updates and even socialized her with one of her cats! She made us very comfortable that she’d be in good hands once we left. We will absolutely be using her again <3”

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover who truly enjoys caring for dogs of all ages and personalities. I understand that pets are family, and I treat every dog as if they were my own. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or simply providing companionship, I’m dedicated to making sure your furry friend feels happy, safe, and loved while you’re away. As a stay-at-home mom, I’m home 24/7, so your dog will never be left alone for extended periods and will always have someone nearby for companionship and care. I share my home with my sweet pug, who loves making new friends and enjoys having furry companions around. I always take introductions slowly and make sure everyone is comfortable and getting along. Whether your dog loves playtime, belly rubs, or simply lounging around, they’ll have plenty of companionship and will never be left alone for long. My goal is to give you peace of mind while you’re away and to make your pup’s stay safe, happy, and full of love!
