About: Hi, I'm Nyah! I've been providing pet care since I was 14 and have experience with a wide range of animals and breeds. I've worked with everything from Cane Corsos and Great Danes to Chihuahuas, doodles, and many breeds in between. Beyond dogs, I also have hands on experience caring for cats, horses, rabbits, chickens and birds, fish, and reptiles. I'm comfortable handling different temperaments, energy levels, feeding routines, medications, and daily care needs. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your animals. My goal is to provide safe, reliable, and loving care while making sure both you and your pets feel comfortable every step of the way. I look forward to meeting you and your furry (or feathered, scaled, or hoofed) family members! I currently work full time, but my hours are flexible and vary on the day. For the most part, I can adjust my work schedule (with enough time in advance) to fit in per clients. When it comes to clients pets, I like to keep them on the routine they are used to as much as I can. So I like having clear laid out instructions(or notes) as to their normal routine, that way the animal has familiarity and they’re significantly less stressed. I try to follow as close to a T as I can to instructions for both the pet and owners sake.
About: I recently moved back here after having spent the last 5 years in Los Angeles. I was emotionally & mentally exhausted from working a 9-5 within such a large city. I missed my animals, the sound of nature & the outdoors. I would love to care for your pets as they enrich my life so much, and I would love to enrich theirs! A LITTLE ABOUT MY EXPERIENCE: Animals have been apart of my life since I could remember: I grew up on a farm! 9 acres of land, filled with horses, chickens, cats, dogs, rats & a free roaming tortoise! The main animal I was surrounded by was cats. We had anywhere from 6-13 at a time! This was mainly due to the litter of kittens my mom, sister & I would foster for months at a time. Our primary focus was bottle baby kittens. I always say, I am a dog mom, but a cat person! Both are extremely near and dear to my heart. I’m also very athletic, so if you have a high energy dog, I don’t mind taking them for a run, dog park, hike etc. MY PETS: My dog’s name is Saint & he is my entire world. I adopted him from a rescue in Riverside, CA only a year and a half ago. He was an aggressive, scared dog who needed constant love and patience to gain his trust. Now, he is an energetic, loving, hilarious boy! Our favorite activities were hikes & playing fetch. Fun fact: he looks identical to 🐕 Saint has taught me how to care for temperamental dogs through positive reassurance as well as the importance of a dynamic, safe environment. MY SPECIALTIES: Senior dogs Energetic dogs Bottle baby kittens Senior cats Medication Live in Sacramento, work in Folsom. Weekends are open to sitting anywhere from Sac up to Placerville and beyond! Weekdays are reserved for early morning walks, late night check-ins around the area OR for those who need mid-day pet care based in Folsom! I am dynamic all around!! I live in an apartment that is open with high ceilings. I have no pets (Saint lives with my parents), smoke & child free as well! More than happy to snuggle & allow pets on furniture. I live in a safe neighbor with a lot of great space to walk.

“McKenzi was the primary walker for my sweet girl, Olivia, for over a year and she was by far the most reliable walker that I had. She is amazing at communicating well in advance when she isn’t able to walk her so I can plan accordingly. I highly recommend her to anyone in need of a walker, you won’t regret picking her!!!”

About: I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life! I’ve been around dogs of all breeds, sizes, and ages, from little puppies to older dogs. My grandma also fostered dogs, so I was always surrounded by them growing up! I have 4 years of pet-sitting experience, but I’ve also grown up taking care of our own dogs my whole life. people always tell me how much their dogs love me! I absolutely adore animals and would treat your fur babies like my own! I’m a college student with a flexible schedule since most of my classes are online! I’m available all day Monday, Wednesday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. I have in-person classes Tuesday and Thursday but can discuss morning or evening visits. I’m also happy to stay overnight in your home! Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities! I’ll always follow their normal routine, respect your home, and give them plenty of love and attention. I’m also happy to send pictures and updates so you know your fur baby is in good hands!
“Derek was amazing with my spastic 1 yr old Golden Retriever! She always came back worked out and tired and a huge smile on her face. Thank you for taking such great care of my Gemma!”

“Amy is very thorough and thoughtful. She took copious notes on my senior dog and changed her diaper and wiped her paws awesomely per my request. When faced with language barriers, Amy is still communicative, kind and respectful— my mom liked her too!”
“Brooklyn has been walking Maggie for a week now and Maggie loves Brooklyn! Brooklyn is prompt to respond to requests and easy to communicate with. Maggie will be 14 this year and she requires accommodations and special handling. Brooklyn has demonstrated compassion and understanding with my detailed instructions. She takes care to pay attention to Maggie's energy and gait and provides updates on her activities. Brooklyn is trustworthy and I feel comfortable with giving her access to my home when I'm away. Thank you Brooklyn!”

About: I grew up with all kinds of animals, and am happy to care for almost all furry friends and babies now. I cater to pet parents’ preferences and enjoy every second I get with a new animal friend. I work a 9-5. I have hybrid flexibility, so I can accommodate daytime drop ins on a case by case basis. Generally, I am available for drop ins any day of the week in the morning and evening. I can housesit too, and if I am given Wi-Fi access, I can also be with your pet during the day. I will feed your pet, administer medications, attend to litter box and other bathroom needs, replenish water, engage them in play, and check safety needs before I go. I will also take a photo or video at the time of my visit and send it to you if that is your preference. While house sitting, I will do all of the above and also adhere to any special routine you have for the pet and do minor house needs too, like taking the mail or watering plants.
“Betty walks my dog Lucy and is so great! She's very professional, accommodating and I know Lucy enjoys her time with her so much! I'm so thankful to have such a great dog walker to rely on.”

“Thank you so much Michelle for walking our two pups! They were so happy each day and we loved to see the pictures and read your descriptions of the day. We’ll definitely rebook in the future!”

About: I have over eight years of dedicated hands-on experience, having cared for pets of all ages and backgrounds since I was 12 years old.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Alder Creek
Aubrie is amazing! We had just moved with our one year old golden retriever & were nervous about how we’d keep him entertained on days we both had to work. Aubrie responded to our inquiry almost immediately & was so easy to schedule a meet & greet & first walk with. She quickly gained our trust & communicates perfectly with plenty of pictures & updates when she’s with our pup. She didn’t shy away from our dog’s crazy, puppy energy & he loves to hang out with her! Would definitely recommend Aubrie to anyone that is looking for a companion for their furry friend!
Melody is awesome! She’s so kind and patient with my senior dog. She’s also super helpful and friendly with my elderly mom. I went on a trip and am lucky Melody was there to change my dog’s diapers, walk her several times a day, and assist my mom with feeding my dog. Melody really cares about animals and won’t hesitate to help you care for your pet while you’re away. She even did a meet and greet with me and my dog beforehand. Truly adore Melody and looking forward to using her services again!

Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
