“My two pups enjoyed their stay with Julie today. She was able to help me out when my other sitter was out of town. I will be booking again!”

“Marianne was amazing! She welcomed my two little Shih Tzus into her home and treated them like they were part of the family. I got a few pictures during the day and could see how relaxed my pups were with her. Highly recommend!”

Amy S.

“Nelly was awesome! Upon meeting her you could already tell she’s an experienced, knowledgeable trainer. That was really important because I’m always afraid of my pup learning unwanted behaviors, but I had full trust that it wouldn’t happen with Nelly! She was diligent with our pup and her interactions with her pets. She also sent plenty of updates throughout the day which I appreciated. pup came home tired! Thank you :)”

“Jasmine has been great taking care of our dog. She’s responsive, accommodating with time and he always comes home happy and exhausted from walks, hikes and playtime”

“Anna looked after Simba while I attended a concert, she kept me updated with lots of pictures about what Simba was up to - I didnt have to worry about him! She made sure that Simba had a fun time with lots of love and treats! If you're looking for someone that'll make your pooch feel at home and have some fun while you're away - Anna's the one to choose!!”

About: Hi, I'm Anna! I am a passionate, highly trained animal lover dedicated to giving your pet the safest and most fun experience possible. Since March, I have been an active volunteer with the Sacramento SPCA, where I have completed intensive online courses and hands-on, in-person training in canine behavior, body language, and socialization. I am fully certified to handle and walk the shelter's Green and Orange color-coded dogs. Because of my training and reliability, the SPCA also trusts me with their Foster Furlough program for their highest-need Pink color-coded dogs. This means I regularly take these advanced-level dogs out of the shelter environment for day trips and overnight stays in my home to give them a break. Whether your dog needs a high-energy walk, structured socialization, or just an attentive and loving overnight companion, I know exactly how to read their body language and keep them safe in real-world situations. I have a very flexible part-time schedule, my own reliable vehicle for check-ins, and a deep commitment to following your exact house rules and routines. I can't wait to meet your furry family member! I don’t work so I’m home pretty much all time unless I’m running errands. I’m available Tuesday-sat to come and help out with your babies!! I have a fenced yard but always prefer to watch them while there going potty or playing! I’d also be able to crate them if needed:)

“Sammy was great! Took my boy at the last minute and was so good with him, and as an owner of an Akita, she did so well and put us at ease while we enjoyed our music festival. Would highly recommend her and if we are back in Sacramento will definitely reach out to her again”

Bilal M.

“Grisel is amazing! I highly recommended. I needed somewhere to send my dog for the day while I was gone. She was able to easily accommodate us and she’s provided excellent care for my dog! I got frequent updates and her and her daughter were even able to drive my dog home. I will definitely be using her again!”

About: This experience has taught me responsibility, empathy, and the importance of communication—both with animals and their owners. I take pride in being a trustworthy and compassionate caregiver, always focused on keeping pets happy, healthy, and loved. My schedule is extremely flexible. I can be available seven days a week if needed. Mornings afternoons, and evenings too. I’m here for you and your pet too! Whether pets are in my home or I’m caring for them in a client’s home, my approach is always rooted in safety, comfort, and personalized attention. I treat every pet like my own and make it a priority to understand their specific needs and routines.

About: I'm an avid dog person, with knowledge about various breeds, large and small, and how to care for them. I love to hang out with dogs, walk, jog and play! I work from home and have a flexible schedule, so I'm available at your dog's need and during any time of day. I grew up with dogs, and have always had a dog in adult life. I don't know what I would do without a dog! I consider myself an active person who spends time in the great outdoors as often as possible. I enjoy doing yoga, riding my bike, weight training, and walking as forms of exercise. During down time, I love to read, cook, and cuddle with my pooch. I look forward to us getting to know each other better!

“Heath Bar didn’t make it easy - he barked the entire time at Danielle’s unless she was there with him, I k ew he had separation anxiety but the only time it presented for the last several years was while he was alone in the car. His being alone in the house was not a problem for him. My take away is to be certain someone will be at home with him for most of the time he will be in someone else’s care. Danielle was very responsive and kept me informed the day Heath was in her care.”

About: Hi, I’m Zarmene (or Z)! Animal care and behavior are my true passions. Over the years, I’ve learned so much from my own dog and two cats, as well as from rescuing and reuniting dogs with their families. Volunteering at sanctuaries and caring for injured wildlife has only deepened my knowledge. What clients love about me: ~Trustworthy and reliable with both pets and homes. ~Detailed updates with notes, pics/videos, and a solid understanding of animal care and training. ~Patient and consistent, especially with anxious pets—dogs quickly warm up to me! ~Positive reinforcement is my go-to—no shock collars, just communication that works for each pet. ~I believe in tailoring care to each animal’s needs, listening to their cues, and helping them feel safe and comfortable. ~On-leash walks are my specialty, and adventure days are available for an extra fee. Note: If you're more than 5 miles from me, a small mileage charge may apply, depending on the number of visits. Feel free to ask any questions at our Meet & Greet before booking! Currently, I am a freelancer, so I make my own hours, with plenty of time to love your pets, as well as my own senior dog and 2 cats! Pet sitting in your home: ~It will be kept as clean as you left it—and maybe even cleaner, time permitting! ~I ask that is is clean and scent/smoke-free (allergies) when I arrive. ~I ask for a little space in the fridge for my food. Day care or boarding in my home: ~The spare bedroom is a Pet Air BnB! Enough room for pets to play together throughout the home or take their own space in a room. ~A crate/kennel with padding/bed is required, for everyone's safety and comfort. ~There are multiple clean beds for all the fur babies. That said, a boarding pet is most comfortable when they have their own bed or blanket brought with them, which must be flea/pest-free and clean. ~A collar with tags and leash are required. Harnesses are also recommended. ~Due to landlord restrictions, I can't accept pets in my home over 35 lbs or certain "dangerous" breeds (insurance rules, unfortunately). ~I use only non-toxic, natural, and eco-friendly cleaners and pest repellents for the safety of your pets and the environment. Everywhere: ~I stay alert to your pets' social cues, respecting their boundaries and addressing their needs. I provide stimulating opportunities to explore and burn off energy in a safe and respectful manner.

About: I’ve always had family pets. We’ve adopted several dogs, young and old, over the years. We currently do not have our own pets, but understand how important it is to feel relaxed when traveling, knowing your furry family is taken care of while away. I am self-employed and work from home. This allows me to be very accommodating when watching your pets and/or home. My wife is an RN and would be able to step in should my schedule not accommodate a particular situation. I prefer to watch your pets in their routine environment knowing it makes them less anxious while you’re away. Depending on your pet and their disposition, I could also allow them time in our home.

“Nelly did a great job taking care of doodle. She was very friendly and responsive! I received pictures, text updates, and a happy dog when I picked him up.”

“We have used Susan multiple times for daycare and she is wonderful!! She is a warm and kind person and truly loves dogs. I feel very comfortable leaving Maya with her, knowing Maya will be safe and well taken care of.”

Ella B.

“Ann and Steve are so great! Ann allowed us to do a meet & greet to check out her backyard and to get to know our dogs. She does not have pets and prefers to sit one pet family at a time. Awesome right? Ann is very knowledgeable with dogs, patient and so very kind. Ann sent pics of Sasuke and Winston. You can tell Sasuke was happy to be there. Winston is just shy overall but warmed up to Ann and Steve. I would definitely book with Ann again. She is one of the best sitters.”

About: 🐾 My Pet Care Experience I’ve had a dog by my side for my entire life until recently, so caring for dogs has always been a natural and important part of my life. Over the years, I’ve experienced the day-to-day responsibilities that come with being a dog owner—from feeding and walks to playtime, exercise, grooming, medications, and simply recognizing when a dog needs some extra attention or reassurance. Having dogs for so many years has taught me that every dog has their own personality, habits, and needs. Some are energetic and ready to play, while others are happiest getting some attention and curling up nearby. I’m comfortable adapting to each dog and following the routine their family has established. Most importantly, I understand that leaving your dog with someone else requires trust. I will treat your dog with the same patience, kindness, and care that I’ve given my own dogs throughout my life. My Availability Retirement gives me a very flexible schedule, which means I can devote plenty of time to your dog rather than trying to fit pet care around a full-time job. I’m generally available throughout the week and can often accommodate different schedules and routines. I’m happy to discuss your specific needs and find a schedule that works well for both you and your pup. I also understand that plans can change, so communication is important. If you have a specific schedule or timing requirement, just let me know when you reach out and I’ll do my best to accommodate it. My goal is simple: **you enjoy your time away knowing your dog is safe, happy, and getting plenty of love and attention.** ❤️🐶 🛡️ Safety, Trust & Environment Your dog’s safety and well-being will always be my top priority. I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big deal, and I take that responsibility seriously. I carefully follow your instructions regarding feeding, medications, routines, leash requirements, crate time, and anything else that helps your dog feel comfortable and secure. I also pay close attention to doors, gates, crates, and other potential escape risks. I want your dog to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. Whether we’re out for a walk, playing in the backyard, or relaxing at home, I provide attentive and supervised care. If I care for your dog in your home, I’ll also treat your home with the same respect I would expect someone to show mine. I’ll keep things clean and secure and leave your home just as I found it. Most importantly, I believe trust is earned. I’ll communicate with you, keep you updated, and make sure you feel confident knowing your dog is in good hands. 🐾❤️

“Ingrid watched our sweet Ruby last minute so my husband and I can spend the day together. Ruby returned home so happy and bummed to say bye to her new friends. We hope she’ll watch Ruby again.”
