About: I’ve had dogs and pets my whole life, and love to spend time with all kinds of pets. I am comfortable with any type of feeding/medicine plan you have. Puppy’s, seniors, high energy dogs or couch potatoes I can cater to their needs and make their time enjoyable in whichever manner suits them. I am available 7 days a week at any time of day or night to feed/walk/check up on and spend time with your dogs or cats. I will take care to follow your pets meal/medicine/activity schedule as I know how important structure and routine are for my pups. I am sure to be respectful of you and your pets home and daily routine.

About: I've had dogs in my life since I was 8, from sm to med dogs. Friends call on me to watch their dogs at their house or mine. I'm currently retired so my schedule is normally wide open for walks and house sitting. Normally not much notice is needed to set appointment to watch dogs. I have a fenced yard and doggy doors, I have stayed at friends to pet sit also had dog stay at my house. Have beds.

About: Animals have been part of my life since childhood—I've cared for both dogs, cats, and everything in between, learning to understand their unique personalities and needs. I have experience administering medications, including pills and even insulin shots for a diabetic cat. For the past five years, I’ve volunteered with the North Valley Animal Disaster Group, helping evacuate and care for animals during emergencies. That work taught me how to stay calm under pressure and provide comfort to pets in stressful situations. Whether your pet needs playful attention or gentle medical care, I’m here to make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. I work from home on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Fridays, which means I’m available during the day to give your pet plenty of attention—whether that’s walks, playtime, feedings, or just keeping them company. On Wednesdays and Thursdays, I work in the office but still offer evening, and overnight care as needed. I am available most weekends unless I am out of town or have an event planned ahead of time. I’m committed to keeping your pets safe, loved, and comfortable every day, and I’m happy to accommodate your pet’s routine as closely as possible. When caring for your pets in your home, I will follow their usual routine as closely as possible—from feeding and walking schedules to their favorite spots to nap or play. I give lots of affection and attention, and I always keep their space tidy, respecting the home and making sure their comfort comes first. If they need medications or special care, I’m confident and gentle, making sure they feel safe every step of the way. I also send regular updates with photos, so you can relax knowing your furry friend is happy and well cared for.

About: 10+ years of experience caring for animals. I've assisted in the birth and taken care of two litters of puppies, cared for elderly dogs (administering medications and shots) and have experience dog training. I've had cats since I was 18 and have owned dogs for almost ten years. I lived on a farm for five years and gained a lot of experience working with animals. I work part time and have plenty of time to dedicate to your animal. I love taking dogs for a sunset walk around folsom lake or on a run along the bike path. I have a second floor apartment with a fenced deck that overlooks wild oaks and a gurgling stream. There is a magnetic screen door so the animals can come and go from the outside deck as they please. My apartment complex also offers a pretty nice dog park. I do have a large dog and a cat that are very good friends. I frequently host my friends dogs for a day visit or overnight so my dog and cat are very friendly and used to having guests :)

“We LOVE Michelle! Absolutely love reading the little notes about Michelle's visits with our pups. She even goes out of her way to socialize with our anti-social cat!”

About: Hi there, I’m Rose (my profile says ‘Maddison’ which is my first name, but I go by my middle name, ‘Rose’ to clear up any confusion!). Let’s see— I’ve been a dog lover my entire life and had the privilege of caring for my own senior pup until she was 17 years old. That experience taught me so much about patience, understanding, and the special care older dogs require. Since 2014, I’ve been independently providing reliable, loving care to dogs, always ensuring they feel safe, respected, and deeply loved. Whether it’s gentle walks, meal time, or just companionship, I’m committed to giving every pet the attention and care they deserve. I offer flexible availability to meet your pet care needs! On weekdays, I’m available from 8:30pm to 10:30pm for evening care. Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays, my schedule opens up from 1pm to 7pm , making it perfect for daytime visits and extended care. Additionally, I’m happy to provide overnight sitting from Friday evenings to Sunday afternoons, ensuring your pets are well-cared for and comfortable while you’re away. Whether it’s a quick check-in or an overnight stay, I’m here to help! Safety is always my top priority when caring for your pets. I keep dogs on a leash at all times during walks to ensure they stay secure and under control. I’m also experienced in recognizing and de-escalating tense situations, whether it’s encountering other animals or navigating busy environments. I’m attentive to each pet’s needs and always take precautions to keep them out of harm’s way.

About: My entire life I have been surrounded by dogs! From taking care of my own pets to taking care of family-friends’, responsibility has played a large role in my growing up. I am a full time nursing student, currently enrolled at FLC. My weekends are almost always open and I am very flexible with times! Taking care of my own dogs (3) plays into my daily routine plenty between potty breaks, playtime, exercise, and feeding. Details are my best friend and I am very thorough when things are left under my responsibility! When caring for pets, I always try very carefully to not disrupt them from their everyday life because routines matter! Always willing to work with any medications, special feeding times, quirks, etc.

“This was our second time having Marissa do drop-in visits while we were out of town. She did a great job, is very reliable, and great with communication. We look forward to working with her again!”

“Michael was timely, communicative, and very accommodating for my last second schedule change. I would definitely trust him with my pets again!”

“Derek & Leslie were absolutely wonderful with Moose. Leslie sent photos daily, and it was obvious how happy my dog was. I came home to a very happy household and will certainly ask them to visit with Moose and my cat again. Top notch.”

About: I’ve owned dogs my entire life. I’ve always done the potty training and basic training for my dogs. I also did several years of volunteer work for the Sacramento SPCA doing basic training with the dogs. I’m recently retired so my days are completely free. I will be available during the week and weekends as well. I’m available mornings and evenings. I have a fenced yard and am home most days to take care of my pets. I also have a crate that can be used.

About: Hello! Im Joana. I’ve been around animals all my life. My first pet was a rescue dog named Marley who was 8 years old. Since then I have always wanted to rescue and finally got to rescue my own dog 2 years ago. She is now 4 years old and is an Australian shepherd named Maple. I do have experience with puppies, senior dogs, and rescue dogs. I currently work full time in healthcare and work night shifts. I have my scheduled shifts out months in advance, which makes scheduling easier for you and me. I can work with the random crazy hours, that is something I am used to. I live in an apartment with my dog. It is completely gated. I am willing to sit in the clients home as well and offer drop in visits.

“5 out of 5!! I would definitely rebook Maile, she took excellent care of all my animals. She went above and beyond, was flexible and easy to communicate with - I felt confident my animals were being provided great care. I enjoyed my vacation without the stress of worrying about my pets!”
