House Sitting in Alkali Flat, Sacramento

“Carolyn is fantastic. Can't recommend her enough. One of our dogs was recovering from an injury requiring 3x day medication and wound cleaning during the 5 night house/dog sitting. His healing progressed well under Carolyn's care. Even our vet surgeon was impressed with how much his healing progressed at his check-up 3 days after my return. What a relief to be on a work trip and know my dogs were in such good hands. The daily texts and pictures were lovely. Carolyn even taught our small dog to be more confident going in/out of the dog door and stop slipping through the gate to bark at the back door!”

“I was so happy that Christina was available to watch Carter again. This is the second time she’s has watched him, As a crazy dogs mom I really am happy he is comfortable. And christina send all the photos and updates make feel at easy leaving my baby behind. Thank you !!”

“Natalie was great! She was awesome communicating and sending pics of our babies to us while we were away. Our dogs loved her! We will definitely use her again. Thanks Natalie”

“Dustin is an absolutely fantastic sitter. I really appreciated the strong communication throughout his stay. The experience was smooth and seamless from the meet and greet through the sitting. Dustin is respectful and asked all the right questions about care for my dog. He followed my care instructions to the letter. Definitely will book again.”

“Holly was so great! She took such good care of our home and two dogs. It was so nice to get away and know that everything was in good hands. 10/10 will use her again! Thanks Holly!!”

“It has been a long process trying to find a dog sitter to replace our longtime dog sitter that’s had a baby and is no longer in the biz. We met with several sitters over the course of a couple months to try and find someone we (and the pups) vibed with. Finally, we found Cheryl and it just felt right. She’s now watched our pups a couple times and it’s been such a great experience every time. She provides regular check ins, walks, and it really feels like she enjoys spending time with our fur babies. I cannot recommend her enough. She’s such a kind soul and takes the best care of our dogs. She also takes great care of the house, making sure packages are put inside and the house of left exactly how we left it. Cheryl, thank you so much for being our go to dog sitter. I cannot express to you how grateful we are to have someone we trust to watch our pups while we are away. I can always feel that Sadie and Mona were well taken care of and loved while we were gone and that makes my heart to happy. Thank you. ♥️”

“I could not recommend Kayden enough as a responsible and loving pet caregiver. Kayden was the one who introduced me to the dog training world. He himself really wanted to be a better owner to his dog. The difference in behavior, that I saw in his dog Five, was night and day! Five went from being extremely anxious to so calm well socialized to her surroundings. Kayden was truly committed and dedicated in showing Five, that the world wasn’t so scary and continues to find ways to give Five the best quality of life he can! Because of this, Kayden was the only person I trusted to look after my dogs when I was away. I could travel without constantly worrying about how my dogs were doing. Kayden made sure they went out multiple times a day and fed them appropriately. Not only that, with his training experience, I knew that he would know how to handle one of my dogs who is also anxious of others. My dogs absolutely love him!!!”

“Our dogs love Kaitlyn and we can feel safe our senior dogs are safe and happy in her care. She communicates regularly, sending us updates and photos. We recommend Kaitlyn to other Rover clients.”

“Joel is an excellent dog/house sitter. He has bonded well with Loki, (our big German Shepherd/Husky cross) and is very patient, and very calm around him, which in turn keeps Loki calm! Joel is accommodating, responsive, flexible, professional and respectful. Joel is also very respectful of our home. We have already booked Joel a few times in coming months. We highly recommend Joel to look after your best furry canine friend, and your home while you are away!”

“Paige was incredibly communicative and very kind to both me as the pet parent and to our 2 dogs. She went at their pace and didn't push them (they are sensitive old ladies!).”

“Andrea watched our new puppy for a long weekend and she was amazing! Our pup loved her and I appreciated all the time that Andrea was able to spend with her. Andrea was incredibly respectful of our house and left it looking great. She's also great at giving updates and pictures if you're like me and want a lot :) I highly recommend Andrea for your next pup-free trip!”

“We are so grateful we found Meryl! She took great care of our dogs and home while we were away on vacation. She followed instructions and communicated frequently throughout the stay. Our dogs have different needs, since one is senior and requires medication and the other is a puppy who is still house training! She handled both with great care. We enjoyed our vacation knowing our dogs were happy while we were gone!”

“India was great with our puppy. She kept us updated and took great care of the house along with the pup. We would definitely have India watch our puppy again.”

“Matt is a kind, compassionate dog lover. He has dog sat for me numerous times. My dog is elderly and requires extra attention and medication. Matt is attentive to her needs always. I highly recommend him to care for your dog.”

“Courtney you are a gem! I’m so glad Meredith & I found you. You make booking last minute easy, mer adores you & aurora. She always comes home worn out which is perfect. We will continue to book with you.”

“Britta was amazing! She did a great job of taking care of my dog Henry and even my cockatiel Murray. She was very communicative and responsive, texting plenty of photos during her stay. Both my house and my animals were clearly well cared for while I was away. I would definitely use Britta again! Highly recommended 😊”

“Nikki took fantastic care of our two dogs, our cat, and our house! One of our dogs defaults to being nervous in new situations, and warmed up quickly to Nikki. She sent regular updates and photos, was on top of dog walking and cat coaxing, and generally displayed experience and competence in sitting for our little crew. We were also blown away by the attention she gave to maintaining our house, and were grateful that it was clean and tidy and ready for us to collapse into when we returned exhausted from our travels. We will definitely use Nikki again.”

“Kristin is incredible! She is extremely accommodating even with the oddest requests. Perla was extremely well taken care of and loved! My house was in perfect condition when I arrive back home!”

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was 13. I grew up with a lab and became the go to dog sitter for friends, family, teachers, bosses over the years. I’ve done it all, even cats! I’m a grad student right now so my schedule is pretty flexible. I can fit pretty much any schedule since my classes are stable. Just let me know when and where you need me to be and I’ll make it happen. I’m in the top half a duplex so we don’t have a yard but we’re across the street from a big park so getting your pup out for fresh air won’t be a problem. When I’m pet sitting I usually check in during the morning before class and the afternoon for a longer visit. Both would include lots of walks and pets and playtime, but I’m happy to work my schedule around yours.

“Kelvin is great with all pets. Looks after my bunny whenever we travel and always provides the best care. He is also experienced with dogs. Kelvin is just a very caring individual and I know I can trust him.”
