“Their home and property is fantastic. My dog smiled every minute she was there. I would give Linda and her husband 10 🌟 if I could! My Ruby was treated with genuine loving ❤️ care...”

About: I’ve been working with dogs since I was 12, from playful puppies to senior companions, from beloved family pets to high energy sport dogs. My passion for animals runs deep, and I treat every dog with the love and care they deserve. I have a super flexible schedule and am always happy to help! My calendar is kept fully up to date, so any days I’m not available will be clearly marked. Don’t ever hesitate to reach out — even if a date looks busy, I’ll do my best to make it work for you and your pup! 💛 I care for pets in their own home where they feel most safe and comfortable. I follow your routine closely, from feeding and walks to playtime and cuddles, to keep your pet happy and stress-free while you’re away. I always treat every home with respect and every pet like family. When staying at my house, I would also like to add that i have indoor crates, outdoor crates ( dog runs) and crash tested crates when/if traveling. Every dog’s needs will be met no matter what. Keeping everything clean is also a huge thing!
About: I was the owner operator of a pet salon for over 20 years with a loyal following based on the quality of care their fur babies recieved. Your dogs will go on walks and have the opportunity to check their peemail. They will enjoy playtime, naps and lots of cuddles. I simply love animals and they will let you know. I am currently working from home M-F with a very flexible work schedule. I understand the importance of keeping fur babies on a schedule with feeding and walks to help them feel safe and loved while in my care. I follow directions well. I live in a cute home with a fully fenced back yard. My 4 legged guests will have indoor outdoor access and full usage of all the homes amenities. I am prepared to set healthy boundries for furniture use at your request, otherwise they will have the freedom to be where they feel most comfortable. My schedule is flexible. Im working remotely from home part time. The fur babies in my care are nutured and loved. That's why I'm a Rover. Safety is my highest priority. I have a fully fenced yard, and firmly believe that playtime is an essential part of enhancing the lives of happy healthy fur babies.
“Amanda was great. Clarabelle is slow to warm up but loves her playtime with other dogs. Amanda took the time to let her get used to the other dogs then set her free. I got lots of adorable pics and my dog was worn out when she got home. That takes a lot! I will definitely use Amanda again!”

“Catie-Lynn and her loving family took excellent care of my older, blind pug mix, Winnie. When I arrived to pick up Winnie, the entire family was there to greet me. It was clear to me that Winnie received lots of love throughout the day. I appreciated their willingness to help me with my special needs dog. Five stars!”

“Pam is the best!! So glad we found her. She is very experienced and has a calm and confident nature with dogs. Pam gives your dog undivided attention as she only takes one dog at a time. Perfect for our anxious little guy! Otis is a couch and bed surfer during the day so I love that she allows dogs on the furniture. Pam could easily become Otis's "surrogate" puppy parent! Kudos to her husband Dave as well, who "chills" with all the dogs on the couch!! I could see a bond forming!! Thank you Pam!! We will definitely be calling again.”

About: I have been around dogs my whole life. And I have been pet/house sitting since I was 14. I am very well with animals, as I live in a farm and have a dog and cats myself. I will care for your animals like they’re are my own. I am currently a college student with an open schedule. I like in Grass Valley but go to school in Rocklin. So I am down in the Rocklin and Roseville area a lot. I would care for them like my own. I love to play with them, cuddle with them, and I will give them treats if allowed.
About: Why Your Dogs Will Love Staying with Me Are you looking for a place where your dog can feel at home while you’re away? Look no further! As a trusted dog sitter, I offer a unique boarding experience that makes every dog feel like part of the family. A Home Away from Home When you leave your dog with me, they won’t be stuck in a kennel or left alone. I welcome dogs into my home, where they become a part of our daily lives. They enjoy a comfortable, loving environment just like they would at home, with plenty of attention and affection. A Fun and Engaging Routine Dogs thrive on routine and play. That’s why I make sure each day is filled with fun activities. We start with playtime in the morning to get their energy out and have another session in the afternoon to keep them active and happy. In the evenings, we all hang out together, ensuring they get the companionship and relaxation they need. Tailored Feeding and Diet Care Feeding time is crucial, and I make it a smooth and enjoyable experience for each dog. I feed them separately to avoid any food fights and ensure they can enjoy their meals in peace. Plus, I stick to the feeding schedule provided by their owners, so they stay on their regular diet and routine. Focused on Comfort and Well-Being While I don’t handle specific training or behavior requirements, my focus is on providing a stress-free and comforting environment. Your dog will get the care and attention they need to feel secure and loved throughout their stay. By choosing my dog-sitting services, you’re giving your dog a happy and loving temporary home. Feel free to reach out to learn more or to schedule a stay for your furry friend! I work remote part time which allows me lots of time with your pets. We walk in the mornings and early evening with playtime in between. Evenings consist of hanging out watching movies and settling in for the night. I have a large fenced backyard for the dogs to play and a large deck to sunbath. Dogs always sleep inside in the evenings. feel free to bring a crate if your dog is crate trained.
About: I've taken care of many dogs of all sizes and I enjoy walking playing with them until they're ready for nap time. My dobie and I have the best walks around the canyon! I'm a full time student and since many classes are online I am more flexible than normal. I can adjust to many types of schedule as long as I get time to work on my studies, I'll be able to accommodate most schedules! On purported ways, I make sure to survey the road on car or foot beforehand when I'm not familiar with the streets to get a feeling of cars and other dogs on homes. Then after a good walk I visually inspect the doggies for ticks or anything other than the ordinary. Lastly, I make sure they had a good time by having them following my lead and have them fulfill their curiosities within range.

About: Hi! I’m a dependable animal lover with a calm, friendly energy that pets naturally respond to. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or just company while you’re away, I treat every pet like they’re my own. I’m attentive to each animal’s unique needs and committed to keeping them safe, happy, and loved. Let’s chat — I’d love to meet your furry friend! I’m mostly free during the week Monday through Friday at any time and I can work on the weekends if it is must needed :) I care for pets by creating a safe, calm, and loving environment, whether in my home or my client’s. I follow any routines or instructions closely — including feeding schedules, medication, walk times, and play preferences — to help pets feel secure and cared for. I always give them plenty of attention, affection, and positive energy. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and make sure everything stays clean and tidy. My goal is to make each pet feel at ease and to give pet parents total peace of mind while they’re away.
“We are from out of town and contacted Rose at the last minute so we could attend a family event. Ginger was happy and exhausted when we picked her up and for a 10 mo old pup, that's a good thing! thank you Rose. We will contact you next time.”
“Maria did a fantastic job taking care of Piglet. She is a sweet gal and obviously an animal lover, which is who you want to leave your babies with. I think piggy would tell me she had a wonderful time if she could talk. Maria is really good at communicating too, which is a bonus! Thank you, Maria for taking such good care of my baby!!”

About: I’ve grown up haveing all types of dogs and animals dogs, cats, horses, rabbits, ferrets. I love all types of animals and really enjoy working with dogs. I have worked with dogs rescues in Los Angeles and foster a lot of dogs from all ages. I have worked training a lot of dogs for not pulling on leashes to being fully off leash dogs. I am safe with reactive dogs and specialize in strong breeds. Keeping dogs safe and allowing them to make good choices is my top priority. I have trained with top trainers with my own dogs and work with balanced dog practices. Structures and rules lead to Great dogs and treats along the way. Learning what makes each dog tick and connections are so important. Each dog is so special and giving them the world even if it’s just one pee break and a cuddle is the best feeling. I am currently in town for the next 2 months due to my full time job on hiatus. I am fully available and pretty flexible. If my service area doesn’t cover you please send me a message rates can be adjusted to include travel further. Safely is my top priority with dogs. Keeping a dog safe with a new person is so important. Deleting on what the dog is accustomed to i use Leashes and slip leads , Ecollars, prong collars whatever the client wants and what works best to get the dogs and clients needs met. Can take the dog out by the house or out to a lake for swimming and ball throwing. I am very aware of my environment to keep the dog safe from others and feel a private area is best for dogs while under my care. I have a even tempered 2 year old playful dogs as well that may join the adventure once I feel comfortable with your dogs and them knowing me.
About: I grew up on a large family farm with all kinds of animals. We recently had two senior Shih Tzu's that each had their own special needs. After the loss, we are ready to open our home to new pups! We love all dogs and animals of all kinds. Our property is a large 3 acres. Our large backyard is fenced. We enjoy hiking and long walks. My husband works from home so there's someone always here for potty breaks, snuggles and treats. We do have one friendly, easygoing cat. Your dog must be comfortable around cats. We are happy to give medications or whatever special needs that you might require. My husband works from home and we are generally homebody people. I work about 32 hours a work. I am usually at work at 10 am and home by 5:30 pm. Our cat is self-sufficient and has his own bathroom space with his automatic food feeder and litter box. This limits dogs from being cat box curious.
“Dolly takes a bit to warm up to new people and, although it took awhile, she eventually warmed up to Jessica. When I came to pick up Dolly she seemed like she was at home, extremely comforting to know our pup was and is in good hands!”

About: I was raised from birth with and by dogs. I was raised on a farm with a large pack of dogs of all sizes and types, and that helped me to understand their body language, their need for respect and how to handle them. I have helped in training over 15+ dogs in crate training, potty training, general tricks, and manners. I have also helped pet parents learn more about how to communicate with, support and understand their pets. I am also a mother of 4 that homeschools leaving my schedule more open to the needs and engagement of my visiting pets. I am a stay at home mom and am available 7 days a week unless specified at that time. I intend to walk the pups throughout the day as well as play sessions if the pup enjoys playing. I have a large land that the pups would need to stay leashed in while on walks, but also have a play yard that is perfect for free range play and relaxing. I have a big home that they can find themselves in relaxing with my pup, as well as an outdoor “giant dog house”, that the pups can also lounge in during the day.
