“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!”

“Hector took great care of our pup during doggy care for two days. He sent several photos each day and was very kind and courteous. We would highly recommend him! Thank you, Hector!”

About: I absolutely love cats and have 10 years of experience caring for them. At home, I have a sweet and well-mannered 6-year-old Maine Coon cat. He enjoys eating, sleeping, and sunbathing—he’s a little lazy but incredibly charming! He’s also very friendly and gets along well with other cats. Beyond my own cat, I’ve had the pleasure of caring for many different breeds, including British Shorthairs, Golden British Shorthairs, Ragdolls, black cats, tortoiseshells, and more. I understand that every cat has a unique personality and needs, and I always strive to provide a comfortable and stress-free experience for them. Whether your cat loves playtime, enjoys quiet companionship, or needs special care, I’m happy to accommodate their preferences. I’d love the opportunity to meet and care for your furry friend! I work from home full-time, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time to caring for pets. My daily routine revolves around ensuring they are well-fed, comfortable, and entertained. Whether it’s playtime, grooming, or just providing companionship, I’m always around to meet their needs. This flexibility also allows me to closely monitor their health and behavior, ensuring they feel safe and happy at all times. I live in a spacious, pet-friendly 2B2B apartment with my wife and our friendly 6-year-old Maine Coon. Our home is quiet, safe, and designed to be a stress-free environment for cats. We ensure there are no hazards, and there’s plenty of space for pets to explore, play, or relax. Additionally, we live in a pet-friendly community, making it a welcoming and safe space for animals. If caring for pets in a client’s home, I always follow their routines and specific instructions to ensure their cat feels secure and comfortable. Cleanliness, proper feeding schedules, and personalized attention are my top priorities, whether in my home or theirs.

“I couldn’t be happier with the care my dog received! From the moment we dropped him off, it was clear he was in safe, loving hands. Our sitter was incredibly attentive, patient, and treated him like part of the family. We got regular updates, photos, and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. My dog came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. It’s not easy to trust someone with your fur baby, but I feel completely confident with this sitter and will definitely book again. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a responsible, kind, and reliable dog sitter! 🐶❤️”

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!”

“Monica is so good with my puppy Emma, she didn’t want to leave Monica’s home! Emma is very young, which is enough work by itself, but Monica is even helping to train her! We feel so lucky to have found Monica.”

“We are so grateful for Karla! She responded within an hour of us reaching out after arriving in town and kindly accommodated our pup Benny last minute. She took such great care of him, sent us adorable pictures, and even let him play with her sweet dog. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was happy and cared for while we were in town for our daughter’s soccer tournament. We feel so lucky to have found Karla and would absolutely recommend her!”

“This was my first time having a dog sitter & Rona made me feel very comfortable. She kept me updated throughout the day and took good care of him. I would definitely recommend her!”

“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.”

Karla and Armen(sp) were great! It was Tony’s first visit and they did everything to put me ,the anxious fur mom at peace. lol Zara is sweet and easy to get along with. I’m super thankful to have found them and we hope to visit with them again soon:). They are a new addition to our rover family:)
Yeting is an excellent dog sitter. She did an excellent job with my dog. She made my dog feel loved and less anxious. She made sure he had a good time throughout the day. I was grateful for her time and attention to my dog. I highly recommend that anyone have her! I am extremely fortunate that I chose her.

Baining was a fantastic doggy day care sitter. My wife and I needed a sitter for the day while we hosted an event at our home. Baining was very attentive and remained in consistent contact with me throughout the day. She took our two pugs on walks. She asked questions if something was not clear. She also took lots of pictures and videos of our dogs. I highly recommend her if you are looking for top notch and quality care.

Erik is fantastic!! He helped me out in a pinch when my dog with terrible separation anxiety also had a cough and couldn’t be around other dogs. He is very responsive and flexible, and a chill human that clearly helps my doggo chill out. I am so grateful to have someone reliable and responsive who gives me peace of mind while I work some long days. Will definitely book again with him soon! Also, his children are adorable and so kind to my little fur baby :).

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!

Tobi had a great time with Marisela for doggy day care. He felt comfortable right away with her and had a great time meeting and interacting with her dog. Tobi got to go to the park and have a lot of fun with Marisela and her pup. Marisela was very proactive about asking questions regardinf how to care for Tobi. She was great at communicating and sent pictures of Tobi throughout his stay. Thank you, Marisela, for taking great care of Tobi.

I contacted Chelsey for a last-minute doggy stay request. She replied right away, asked all the right questions, and we were set up within 10 minutes. During the stay, she sent me updates and photos which were much appreciated. She took great care of our pup and we would recommend her to anyone!
