House Sitting West Grove Valley

“Bianca was great with my dogs Luna and Koa. They have specific needs since one is deaf and the other is new to our family. When I got back from my trip, the dogs were relaxed and happy. She had great communication as well.”

About: My skills are only taking the dogs a bath and taking them on walks, and I play with them as well I give all my attention to them. I start my morning early and then I take the dog out on their first walk of the day, then I feed them their breakfast, then throughout the day I play with them and care for them. The care I would give is just giving them attention and making sure their area is always cleaned. Taking them on walks and playing with them! I always attend them to see what they need. I also provide dog sitting in your own home as much as you need me to, and I can also stay over night staying in your own home! I can come to you if you are not comfortable with your dog leaving home.

“Sarah was great! She kept us updated, sent pictures and our dogs seemed happy & comfortable upon returning which is the most important. Happy to have her as a trusted dog sitter to use in the future!”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 11 years old—both my own and those of friends and family. I grew up with a high-energy Jack Russell mix, so I’m no stranger to playful pups who love to move. I genuinely love all animals and have a deep appreciation for their unique personalities. I’m a recent graduate from UC Irvine and currently have a flexible schedule as I search for full-time opportunities. That means I have plenty of time to care for your dog or cat—and I’d love to spend it keeping your pet happy and active! I prioritize your pet’s safety and comfort during every walk or visit. Whether at home or in a nearby park, I always make sure your pet is having fun while staying safe. I also enjoy learning about pet behavior and regularly watch dog training and grooming videos to stay informed. I’ve been around both energetic and fluffy pets all my life!

“Gloria was genuinely everything we could have hoped for. We were traveling with our two dogs and needed someone to watch them in our hotel room, which can be a little stressful because it’s an unfamiliar place for them. Bert is our 1-year-old anxious sweetheart, and Bud is our 10-year-old sweet “grumpy” old man, so we really just wanted someone who would keep them calm, safe, and comfortable. Gloria did exactly that. She was on time, kind, easy to communicate with, and sent us sweet updates and pictures throughout the night. It made such a difference being able to go out and actually feel confident that our boys were okay. She took them out, gave them treats, hung out with them, and clearly paid attention to who they are instead of just “watching dogs.” She also left us the sweetest handwritten card and a Polaroid of Bud and Bert, which honestly meant so much. It was such a thoughtful little thing and showed how much she cares. We came back to two safe, happy boys, and that’s really all you can ask for. We’re so grateful we found Gloria and would book her again in a heartbeat. Highly, highly recommend her.”

About: I have been pet sitting since middle school and have worked at animal shelters. I love animals and I have pet sat for friends, neighbours, etc! I work remotely, so that way I am able to give your pet the full attention they need! My schedule is very flexible and I always love to meet new pets. I'm always extremely respectful of a host's space and detail-oriented as to ensure I follow all the provided instructions of pet care. I want to make sure you feel comfortable!

“Megan was wonderful. She communicated throughout the whole stay and made me feel confident my doggies were being loved and cared for. I definitely would recommend her!”

“This was my second time using Rover and I was really nervous. We have had the same dog sitter for about three years now but she is pregnant and due to give birth any day so she was unavailable. Annalie was an AMAZING communicator - incredibly prompt and so nice. Annalie came over for a meet and greet and a tour of the home and agreed it would work! Annalie watched our 12.5 year old French bulldog who has some medical things to be mindful of. We got videos and pictures and checks in as frequently as I requested in the app. I will 100% use Annalie again and I highly recommend!”

About: I have experience caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities, and I enjoy making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their families are away. I know every pet has unique needs, so I carefully follow each owner’s instructions to keep their routine as consistent as possible. I’m attentive to feeding schedules, dietary restrictions, allergies, medications, approved treats, exercise needs, and any special care your pet requires. I also provide light grooming, such as brushing, wiping paws, and basic coat care when requested. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, or simply relaxing with company, I’ll make sure they receive plenty of attention, affection, and compassionate care. I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages throughout each visit so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry family member is happy, safe, and well cared for. I have an open schedule, I’m available to take care of your pets from morning till evening, overnight or multiple nights, I can board or go to your home to board. I follow home owners instructions or requests, if there’s none I keep your pet company all day, I’ll start by making sure your pets are familiar with me, depending on your pets behavior I’ll prepare food, snacks, water, snacks, bath (if needed),walks every 2-4 hours, playtime with toys, crating if necessary, and helping pets fall asleep.

About: I understand what dogs need because I pay attention to the small things. When my own dog, Gorio, gets anxious, I don't just manage it—I anticipate it. I've learned to read his cues, adjust environments before he gets overwhelmed, and create routines that help him feel secure. I've taken him camping, navigated social situations with other dogs, and made tough calls to protect his wellbeing even when it's inconvenient for me. I treat every dog in my care like they matter—not as a job, but as a responsibility I take seriously. Whether your pup needs patience, structure, or just someone who won't leave them feeling like a burden, I show up fully present. Your dog won't just be watched—they'll be seen. Working part time as a surgical technologist, I usually work 3-4 days a week. On my own time I can do mornings on Mondays and Tuesdays I can also do Saturday evenings and Sunday evenings Home Visits: I respect your dog's space and routine. I will pay attention first to their comfort level, read their cues, and don't force interaction, when they are anxious. I’m very patient with them, so I make sure they feel safe, not stressed by having a stranger in their home. Walks: I'm mindful of your dog's pace and energy. I don't rush them. I'm aware of their triggers and keep them feeling protected, not overwhelmed. Overnight Stays: I'm consistent and reliable. Your dog won't be left wondering or anxious. I make decisions that prioritize their wellbeing, even when it's inconvenient for me.

“Ariel was great. We would hire her again!”

About: I’ve been caring for pets for over 20 years, with 10+ years dedicated specifically to dogs. From tiny Chihuahuas to large, strong German Shepherds, I’ve worked with breeds of all sizes and temperaments. I’m also a lifelong cat owner and have cared for cats with a wide range of personalities, from playful and social to shy and reserved. I understand that each pet is unique, with their own quirks, needs, and routines, and I make it my priority to ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved in my care. Animals seem to sense my genuine affection right away, and most warm up to me quickly. I bring calm yet positive energy that helps even timid pets feel at ease. I treat every pet like my own, offering attentive, protective, and responsible care. Whether it’s providing enriching playtime, keeping up with special diets, or just offering extra cuddles, I go above and beyond to make sure your furry family member feels happy and secure while you’re away. As a music teacher, I currently work only three days a week, which gives me plenty of flexibility to devote to pet care. From Wednesday through Saturday, I have ample time and energy to focus on your pet’s needs whether that’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just keeping them company. My schedule allows me to give your furry friend the attention, consistency, and care they deserve. I primarily provide care in my client’s home, where pets can stay in their familiar environment and feel most comfortable. This helps reduce stress and maintain their normal routines. I follow your instructions closely, from feeding schedules to playtime and exercise, and always give extra love and attention. In certain cases, I can also care for pets in my own home, especially small dogs or cats. In my home, they will have a safe, clean, and comfortable space, along with plenty of affection, supervision, and enrichment.

“Joy is so great: communication, timeliness and most importantly loving my dog Wrigley. It is so nice to travel and know your doggy is being loved and cared for!”
