“Thanks Rebecca! Rebecca did such an amazing job! Rocket and Benji misses her already! Love all of the detailed info from the walk and how you took care of them by wetting the dog run area and giving them extra water.”
About: Hi, my name is Michelle. Over the years I’ve raised and trained many of my own pets and regularly dog sit for all of my family. I currently have one dog, a Rat Terrier named Memo. He is high energy but he's a happy boy and has the best temperament. For housesitting, please be advised that I will be bringing Memo to stay with me at your home. If you want to see more of my cutie, check out his bio. I’ve cared for dogs of all kinds, from playful puppies who need extra attention and playtime to older dogs who just need a slower pace and a little extra patience. I’m comfortable managing multiple dogs of all sizes. That includes 'pullers' and/or dog reactive from my experience walking dogs at shelters. Here are a few things I’m happy to help with: • Walks, playtime, and activities that keep your dog active and engaged • Puppy guidance and reinforcement of training routines if requested • Patient care for senior dogs or pets with special needs (including administering medications) • Flexible scheduling when possible • Pick up/Drop off within 5 miles of my house. (Main & Civic Center in Santa Ana) • Grooming (only the basics: bathing, drying, brushing.) Price depends on size and length of fur. Sorry, no nail trims. • Dependable care with the same love and attention I give my own dog. (Snuggling always included!) I'd love to schedule a meet-and-greet to meet you and your pet! I do project based work from home so I'm present and not tied down to a rigid schedule which means I have the time and flexibility to give your pet attention when needed. I have a Rat Terrier who gets a long with all dogs, he loves to play but is pretty respectful of dogs who are not into it. Dogs have free rein of my house. I spend a good amount of time with them outside in the yard, they are never let out without supervision.
About: I'm ready for hot girl walks for the time and I hope your pup is too. I've grown up and raised dogs of my own, but being in California for school meant leaving him (Butter) behind temporarily. My heart is empty and open to welcome and love yours. I am a second year PA student so most of my schedule is made by me, which will allow me to be flexible and have ample time to feed, walk, and play with your best friend! I treat every pet like my own and aim to create a safe, cozy, and fun environment. I follow routines, keep things pet-safe, and make sure each pet gets the attention and playtime they need. You’ll also get updates along the way and as many additional ones you'd like!
About: I’m a dependable and strong woman who’s comfortable with bigger dogs, but gentle and patient with smaller ones. I’m not a professional trainer, but I pay attention to dogs and can usually tell when they’re feeling scared, stressed, or unsure. I also stay aware of my surroundings on walks to help keep every dog safe. I do work a full time M-F 9-5 and have a dog of my own. So I’m only available weekends for now I will follow any instruction, no matter how unusual, lol. Feeding, walks, routines, if it’s leaving the tv or music on or warm up a heat pad, etc, whatever you need—so your pet feels comfortable and taken care of.
About: I’m an absolute pet person. Family and friends always ask me to sit for their pets and they don’t think twice or worry about it. My days need to be filled with enjoyment and fun. My availability will absolute work around weekends and we can always make weekdays work 🫶🏽 If you feel completely comfortable with me sitting your pet at your home I will completely respect and follow any and all rules made 😊
About: I’ve grown up having dogs and cats my whole life! They bring me so much joy, and life is so much better with our fluffy friends. Growing up, I’ve been blessed with Shih Tzu’s, a Maltese, a labradoodle, a golden doodle, Siamese cats, a tuxedo cat, and a ragdoll. Besides my own pets, I have lots of experience pet sitting Dalmatians, German Shepherds, and indoor/outdoor cats. I love to spend time with them and will ensure they have everything they need to be happy and healthy. I also have lots of experience administering medicine. I promise to love your fur baby and treat them as I would my own. ❤️ I will talk to them, sing to them, and of course, spoil them! I’m a full-time musician and my week days are usually very flexible. I have shows during evenings and weekends, but I can always make time to check in on your pets for potty and feeding times. With my own dogs and cats, I know how important attention and quality time are for their health and happiness. I will follow your instructions on your pet’s needs, including walks, feeding times, treats, medications, and play!
“Andrea is a amazing sitter and dog walker. My dog and cats love seeing her. She's caring, detail oriented, and just plain loves these animals. She even left a thank you card for us, highly recommend!”
About: I treat every animal in my care like they’re part of my own family, because that’s exactly how I’d want someone to treat mine. I focus on creating a clam safe and loving environment. Pet care is a meaningful part of my daily life. I live on a mini farm property with plenty of space for playtime. I structure my days around the needs of the pets I’m caring for. Whether pets are staying in my home or I’m caring for them in theirs, my priority is to make them feel safe, comfortable and loved. If your pet has specific needs, like crate training, medication, or anxiety care, I’m experienced and happy to accommodate.
About: I know how to groom all type of dog hair if you like. They will love all the adventures we will go on. They will always feel welcomed and cared for at all times. I will shower them if you ask. Would love to take care of any dog. I do not mind picking up after them, that is my job. I always have treats and chew toys with me. I will always be available for them when you need me there. Holidays included as well. Will play with them for as long as they want(tummy rubs included). Planning to go to college to learn more about taking care of dogs full time soon. Will always go home satisfied with a full tummy and with a smile on their face. I am currently working a part time job. I do not work much so my availability is very open. My job fluctuates week by week but will always let you know ahead of time. I have a fenced home. My home is also pretty big so very spacious for any pets. I also live in a quiet neighborhood so they will not have to worry about loud sounds.
“Yolanda was so good to Archie and Millie! She was communicative and sent pictures. She went above and beyond. They seemed very calm and happy in her presence. We've already booked for more walks. 🐶”
“Thank you so much for having Yuna come by and hangout in your neighborhood! We’re super excited to have Yuna do Doggy Daycare this upcoming weekend. Rare to finding someone that Yuna gets along with instantly and grateful for all the love and care that you may provide for her like one of your own :) Would highly recommend Naomy for any dog sitting/walks as she always strives to go above and beyond the original scope. Thanks again!”
About: I’m comfortable monitoring pets closely, noticing subtle changes in behavior or health, and staying calm in stressful situations. I have experience giving medications (oral and injections if needed). I’m also patient with puppies and understand they need structure and consistency. I’ve volunteered in shelter settings, so I’m used to working with shy or nervous pets and building their trust. I take pet care seriously and try to give every animal the same level of attention I would want for my own. I’m a part-time student working on prerequisites for vet school, so I have flexible time to spend with your pets. I can give them plenty of attention, playtime, and follow their routine to keep them happy and cared for while you’re away. I provide care in your home so your pet can stay in a familiar, comfortable environment. I follow your routines, supervise them closely, and make sure their space is safe. I build trust by going at your pet’s pace and giving plenty of attention, so they feel secure while you’re away.
About: I am a Registered veterinary technician with 15 plus years of experience working with animals.I Have several years of experience in Emergency and Specialty medicine. In the past I have worked in the neurology department for over 5 years and so I have experience in caring for IVDD dogs and cats, and pets with seizures. My experience makes it easy for me to recognize when a pet is experiencing an emergency. I love taking care of all pets and specialize in the care of pets with special needs. I am currently working from home so I have some extra time during the week and weekends for walks, in house visits and pet sitting. I treat every pet as if it was my own and I am very careful when at the clients home. I will care for and nurture your pet, after all I do this for a living :)
About: I have been around animals my entire life. Dogs, cats, reptiles, hamsters and more. I went to school for veterinary assisting at OCVAS and am now working in an established Veterinary hospital company! I work with all ages, health conditions, and specialties of dogs. I am more than comfortable with any needs necessary. I do this for my love of animals, not for the paycheck! I am working part time at my veterinary hospital! That means I have extended availability for your pets :) Mon-Tues, I am available all day! Wed-Sunday I am available evenings from 7-10pm! During Mon-Tues I am able to do boarding as well! I have a fully fenced backyard for your pup to run all their zoomies out! No other pets are owned in my backyard :) Grass and cleanliness are always well maintained for your pups safety!
About: What sets me apart is my genuine love for dogs and my commitment to treating every pet like family. I understand that every dog has unique needs, whether they’re an energetic puppy, an active adult, or a senior dog who requires extra patience and care. I’m attentive, dependable, and focused on making sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I enjoy maintaining routines, providing plenty of exercise and playtime, and giving lots of affection. I also believe in regular communication, so you’ll receive updates and photos for peace of mind. My goal is to create a positive experience for both you and your dog, ensuring they receive the same care and attention I would want for my own pets. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I currently work part-time, which gives me flexibility to provide consistent attention and care throughout the day. I have plenty of time for walks, playtime, feeding schedules, potty breaks, and companionship. I enjoy being active and spending time with animals, so caring for pets is something I genuinely look forward to. Whether your dog needs exercise, cuddles, or simply someone reliable to keep them company, I can make sure they receive the attention and care they deserve while you’re away. I also prioritize keeping pet owners updated with messages and photos so they can feel confident their furry family member is in good hands. I provide a safe, loving, and stress-free environment for every pet in my care. In a client’s home, I focus on maintaining their pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and any special instructions they provide. I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, affection, and exercise while keeping their environment clean and secure. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel connected and reassured while they’re away. If caring for a pet in my home, I ensure they have a comfortable space to relax, plenty of supervised activity, fresh water, and lots of positive interaction throughout the day. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, loved, and at ease, whether they’re staying with me or I’m caring for them in their own home.
About: Hi there, I’m Carissa! My deep love for animals began at a young age, as I grew up sharing a crib with a lively orange tabby who was always watching over me. Right now, I have a sweet tabby boy named Torito. My beloved childhood dog, Pepper, passed away last year after a long battle with heart disease and I'm learning to adjust to her absence day by day. I’m eager for more furry companionship and have lots of love to give! ° 𐐪𐑂 ♡ 𐐪𐑂 ₒ 𐐪𐑂 ♡ 𐐪𐑂 ° Over the years, I've cared for stray and feral cats in my backyard, as well as cats and dogs of all ages, some of whom have had various health conditions such as heart disease, arthritis, thyroid disease, anxiety, deafness, blindness, and mobility issues. I've rescued and rehomed stray dogs to loving forever homes on multiple occasions. As a teenager, I volunteered as a weekly cat tender at PetSmart and Petco for two years, which gave me a ton of great experience working with cats of all ages and personalities! I understand trusting someone with your cherished companion can be difficult, which is why I'll provide you with regular updates, including plenty of pictures and videos, so you can feel connected to them while they're in my care. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my number one priorities, and I can guarantee that they’ll be in the best care with me ૮ • ﻌ - ა ⟢ Please note: I only service dogs under 50 lbs, non-reactive/non-aggressive animals, and fixed animals! ⟢ Hablo español.

Washington Square dog parents share their Rover experiences
Makenna is a great dependable pet sitter and her love of dogs really shows!! She is communicative, reliable and she cared for our dog like her own. Our dog is currently taking medication that makes her extremely thirsty and urinate frequently and Makenna was on top of her care. We’ve had both good and bad experiences with rover and this was a great experience. Thank you Makenna we will definitely reach out again the next time we need care for Penny.
Shea has been absolutely amazing with my dog, Harley. From the very beginning, her communication has been excellent, she provides detailed updates after every walk along with photos, which I genuinely look forward to reading each day. It’s clear she truly cares about the dogs she works with. Harley is very comfortable with her, which gives me a lot of peace of mind. Shea goes above and beyond, not only with her attentiveness and reliability, but also through thoughtful gestures like the personalized magnet she made for Harley, which was such a nice surprise. I’m incredibly grateful we found her and will definitely be working with her again. I highly recommend Shea to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and professional dog walker.
Mia's reliability in addition to her care for my Calamity Grace gave me such confidence when I was away. She also was a blessing for my elderly Mom, who is unable to exercise my girl. My mom did insist on her skipping a day, which I understand. Please give her the pay for that day.
Nao did an amazing job walking our dog, Morty. She was prompt with great communication and she was able to take our request on short notice around the holidays. Morty really liked her and we got so many cute photos of the walk. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Nao again!
Silvi was absolutely wonderful with our dog Ellie! She took such great care of her and made sure Ellie felt comfortable, loved, and well looked after the entire time. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing Ellie was in such caring hands. We truly appreciate the attention, kindness, and responsibility Silvi showed, and we would happily book with her again. Highly recommend! 🐾💛
Sabrina did a great job taking out my Milo. The communication with her was amazing and she often sent me pictures of what he was doing. Sabrina also went above and beyond her Duty by making sure Milo had water in its bowl and making sure that she communicated with me efficiently. I will definitely be booking her again.
One word to describe Alejandro's services: PHENOMENAL! I looked for someone who was very close to me distance-wise and within my budget within a few days from a trip due to last min change in plans for care for my dogs. I ultimately decided to go with Alejandro after reviewing his photos and profile. What caught my attention was how you could tell just by looking at the photos that he really cared about his pets, which was extremely important to me. The vibes I got was, "this is a dog dad", which to me meant that they were going to care for my pets as if they were my children. Very important. Alejandro responded quickly, and we scheduled an in-person meeting for him to meet my boys. I was really impressed by his professionalism and the questions he asked me to better understand my situation. I could tell he took his role seriously, and it made me feel even more confident in his ability to care for my boys. We scheduled one more in-person meeting for him to tour my home and property so that I could show him the usual routes. I had left Alejandro with detailed pet instructions as he also agreed to feed my dogs aside from walking them and give them their treats as scheduled, but I had also advised him I would not have internet access while I was away. He assured me he would still provide updates despite the lack of internet so I could read them when I was able to reconnect with the world again. I was thoroughly pleased with the reports he provided and the photos of my babies. The first report, off the bat, made me instantly feel relieved because I knew I had made the best choice by selecting Alejandro as the person to work with. I could tell from the report and the photos that my boys were having the time of their life experiencing walks differently and with someone who really cared about them. I absolutely will go with Alejandro again when I need to utilize his services and cannot rave enough about him. You will not regret it. Best dog dad in the world!
This was our first time using the walking service on rover, and we were a bit hesitant at first. But Holly was amazing! She was very communicative and patient with our lengthy list of instructions! We will definitely be using her services again! She went above and beyond and sent many updates
