House Sitting in Applegate

“Virginia did a fantastic job taking care of our pampered pup. She was great to work with, and we felt completely at ease trusting her with our dog Nia.”

About: Not only do I have 10 years of experience of pet sitting, I have experience working with shelter dogs. I’ve been with Placer SPCA as a volunteer for many years. I work with fearful, excitable, shy and even reactive dogs on a weekly basis. I make sure to give them the best care I can provide. I have plenty of free time and my shelter schedule is very flexible! I spend most of my time caring for pets or working with animals. I am someone that you can contact last minute for pet sitting! I will make sure that your pet gets all the love, care and attention your best friend could possibly need. I provide mostly overnight care, in which I make sure your pup is cared for in the same way you do every day. Building trust is very important to me, I’ll make sure to send pictures of your dog (or other animals) along with a report of how they are doing and any other info you may need.

“Sienna did a fantastic job caring for our husky dog. She also did a terrific job watering all our yard plants and she washed the bedding & towels before she left! Highly recommend!”

“Sabrina is a joy to work with to watch our lil dude Nico. Her communication is fantastic and she always went the extra mile to ensure he was well-cared for. We had complete ease of mind being away and knowing that he received lots of love, cuddles and care.”

“Lorena was great! She checked in regularly to let us know how things were going. We could tell how happy our beloved boxer, which was a great comfort.”

“Meaghan has been a great help to our family who needed care last minute for a family emergency. She was communicative, flexible and took great care of our pets. I woul not hesitate asking Meaghan y to ovpet sit again!”

“Without question I would hire Lesley again. She stayed two nights at the house with my beloved dog. She arrived on time and spent the time at the home that we agreed on. She went above and beyond making sure my dog was happy and well-fed. She was willing to spend time walking her and playing fetch! I received photos of my dog that showed she was perfectly content. I felt like I knew what was going on while I was away. This was far and above the way to go so that my dog did not need to be subjected to the stress of a kennel.”

Beth D.

“Bryce was a great dog/house sitter. Chai and Sassy were well cared for and he walked them daily. He also gave Sassy extra walks to burn off some of her energy. We appreciated the daily updates (photos) showing their well being. The dogs seemed contented when we returned home. Bryce arrived on time and kept our house neat and clean. We would definitely hire him again.”

About: Animals have been part of my life since I was an early adult, and caring and connecting with them comes naturally. As a wellness coach, husband and father of two, I’m big on structure, patience, and creating a calm, safe inviting environment for every dog I work with. I’m active outdoors, hiking, walking trails, and exploring around in the neighborhood, so your dog will get plenty of movement and attention. I will always adapt movement and attention needs to your liking. I’ve handled everything from high-energy pups to gentle senior dogs, and I’m confident with feeding routines, medication reminders, crate-training basics, and helping anxious dogs feel secure. I treat every pet like my own and keep owners updated with photos, check-ins, and clear communication so you always know your dog is in good hands. Whether your dog needs long walks, overnight care, or a dependable companion while you’re away, I bring consistency, kindness, and professional-level responsibility to every stay. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I work from home and set my own schedule. I’m already outdoors often, walking, working on the yard, biking, or taking my own dog out around the neighborhood or on the trails, so adding your pup into my day is a seamless fit. I’m available for boarding service either at my home or yours for 2-4 days during the week and weekend boarding requests as well. Your dog will always get consistent attention, movement, and care, never rushed or squeezed into a busy schedule. I provide a calm, structured environment that helps dogs feel comfortable the moment they arrive. My home in Fair Oaks has a large, fenced yard with plenty of safe space to explore. Outdoor time is always supervised, gates stay secured, and I keep clear routines for feeding, play, and rest so dogs settle in smoothly. We have two friendly dogs of our own, a Papillon and a Min Pin/Jack Russell mix, who enjoy having new companions around. They’re social, well-behaved, and help create an easygoing atmosphere for visiting pups. If a dog prefers their own space, I can separate areas to make sure everyone feels relaxed. For boarding in my home, I do require that dogs are potty trained. If you’re still working on potty training, I’m more than happy to support that process in your home. I’m also comfortable with crate routines, senior care, medication reminders, and maintaining whatever structure your dog is used to. As a father and longtime pet owner, safety and communication are top priorities, I send photo updates and check-ins so you always feel connected while you’re away.

“Amber was fantastic. Super responsive and a great communicator. I could tell my two dogs had a great time with her over the two-day house sitting gig. I would recommend her to anyone!”

“We only had Jaxen stay for one night as we just had a quick get away, but her communication was fabulous, she was prompt and sent picks even when we were only gone for 24hrs. She was very nice and the dogs seem happy. We would definitely have Jaxen for another stay.”

Monica N.

“Matias filled in last-minute after our original sitter had an emergency. Matias was great with the dogs and the house. He was responsive every time we checked in and kept us updated on everything that came up while we were gone. One of our dogs is/was a puppy (10 months) at the time of the sit and Matias was very good natured about her puppy behavior. The dogs seemed to like him. He did a great job with walks and getting them out for play time in our yard. The dogs were on a special diet at the time of the sit and Matias had to play home chef to the dogs. He did great. We came home to a clean house and happy, healthy dogs. We’d definitely recommend Matias.”

About: I got my first dog when I was six, and growing up he was my best friend. I also had lizards, birds, fish, frogs, hamsters, and cats! Ever since then, I have always been passionate about helping dogs and other animals. I've taken care of many dogs and cats over the years of all sizes and ages, and now I want to make this passion my work. My favorite part about taking care of dogs is walking them. I have a Border Collie and know how to handle hyper and active dogs. I have experience taking care of disabled pets as well- I had a small dog that used a wheel chair for years and lived a happy life. All of my friends and family call me first when in need of a pet sitter because they know I'm capable and that I truly care. Whether you need walking, bathing, feeding, or someone to assist with your special needs pet, I have done it all and would love to help! I am available to walk your dog and take care of your pets any day of the week. So send me a message and I will respond quickly! First, I ask pet owners if there are any requirements or concerns to be aware of when I am entering their home to care for their pet. In addition, I always like to know what treats or activities their pets enjoy. For example, during an appointment, I will often greet pets with their favorite treat, check if they need water, take care of any potty or medical needs, and stimulate them with their favorite activity! Before leaving, I make sure I have performed all required tasks requested by the client.

“Jordan did an excellent job watching my house and pets. He’s detail oriented, very kind, and my pets liked him. The job was 5 days long and my house was in fantastic shape when I came home. I highly recommend Jordan and hope he can come back again to watch my pets and house.”
