Pet Sitting & Drop Ins In Arden Fair

“Natalie was very communicative, took good photos, and overall gave our cats excellent care for a couple check ins, which we booked on somewhat short notice. Definitely recommend!”

“I have been booking Erika for visits with my dog for over a year now. I’m very picky with who I trust with my dog and Erika is just the best. She is communicative, timely, and my dog loves her❤️ Very very happy I found her !”

About: I have had many pets through out my life and got to learn how to work with senior dogs, that includes one of my past dogs, Millie, who was 18 and I learned how to care for her. Not just that, but we adopted our dog Brooklyn when she was a puppy, so through that I learned to care and train a puppy. I know how to care for cats with cleaning their litter box and keeping them engaged. I love walking dogs and playing with them. I am working part time, however my schedule is very open and I can do daily visits with peoples pets. I would make them my priority to take care of them and make them feel comfortable. Also my shifts are only 3 hours so before and after I can visit the fur babies. In my clients home I will make sure that when they go outside I am either watching them from inside or going outside with them to make sure they are safe. I will make sure to play with them and care for them in my clients home.

About: Greetings! I grew up in a home that could only be described as “animal-enthusiast central”—dogs, cats, the occasional parakeet, even a mouse or two. Caring for animals has quite literally been a lifelong habit, not just a job. Over the years, I’ve gained hands-on experience with pets of all temperaments and breeds (honestly, I haven’t met one I didn’t love). I’ve also volunteered with Happy Tails Pet Sanctuary, which deepened my understanding of animal behavior and care. I’m comfortable with: • Administering medications • Multi-pet households • Special routines and quirks • Keeping your home in order (mail, trash bins, etc.) I treat every pet and home with the same care and respect I give my own—reliable, attentive, and always tuned in to what your pet needs to feel safe and happy. Because I currently have a few stray cats who’ve decided my yard is their forever home, I’m offering in-home care only—overnights, drop-ins, or custom schedules that fit your needs. If you’re looking for someone experienced, trustworthy, and genuinely invested in your pet’s well-being, I’d love to connect. Let’s set up a meet & greet and make sure it’s the perfect fit—for you and your pets 🐶🐱 Pretty open to all requests and try to accommodate for last minute scenarios. I retired semi early so my schedule is fairly adaptable to all. Former 5-star sitter here, making my grand return to Rover after a brief (and not-so-passionate) detour into another career. Turns out, nothing compares to caring for animals—so I’m back doing what I genuinely love.

About: I work from home as a licensed realtor who is also licensed to give massages to both humans (handsonkneads) and canines (dogmamassage). I have always had dogs growing up (can't imagine living without them). I have a fenced yard with a pool and live in a quiet neighborhood near a park and a school. I have two large dogs to keep your fur babies company while you're away. Also available for pick ups and drop offs of your dogs AND if you need a ride to the airport, bus stop or train station. Call me for current specials. I work from home and have plenty of time to look after your pups. I will spoil your dog like I spoil mine - with lots of attention, walks, potty breaks and play time. I have a fenced yard, live in a quiet neighborhood on a quiet street. There's access to a pool to cool off on these hot Sacramento days. I have extra crates and pens if needed or requested.

“Elizabeth was great and our cats appeared to really enjoy her company! Her updates were wonderfully detailed and we appreciated all the pictures.”

“I highly recommend Philip & Jenny who have been helping me with pet care for my young puppy when I have work commitments that require me to be away. They are responsive, dependable, flexible to work with and great with dogs. It is a relief to have supportive pet care I can trust.”

About: What sets me apart is my experience with dogs of all ages, sizes, and energy levels. I fostered puppies and adult dogs for four years, which gave me hands-on experience caring for dogs with different personalities, needs, and backgrounds. I also grew up with working dogs, so I am very comfortable handling high-energy breeds and understand the exercise, structure, and attention they require. Whether it's a playful puppy, an active working dog, or a senior pet needing extra patience and care, I adapt to each animal's individual needs. I am confident handling dogs on walks and prioritize safety, consistency, and positive interactions. I am comfortable working with reactive dogs as well :) I am a full time student looking to fill my summer by taking care pets instead of adopting more! I have extremely open availability, whatever your pet needs Ill be there. I wholeheartedly understand the anxiety and stress that can come with leaving your pet in someone else's care, I have those same feelings when it comes to my own pets. Because of that, I will treat your pet as if they were my own, providing them with the same love, attention, and care that I would expect for my animals. Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness, along with your peace of mind, are always my top priorities. While I am caring for your pet, I will be readily available by text or phone and happy to provide updates, photos, and videos to help you feel connected and reassured while you're away. 🐾

About: Pet sitter since 2017. I love animals and always had a cat in the house growing up. I was nomadic in my 20s and started taking care of my friends’ pets to get my cuddle fix. I am still pet free and full of love to share with your special friends. My experience is mostly with dogs and cats but also goats, birds, fishes, chickens, and a chinchilla. I am open to caring for all animals except horses since I do not have equine experience. I am also skilled at organizing, housecleaning, & gardening. I would be happy to add these services to pet sitting if needed. I am currently fully available to care for your pets. I have time to give them all the love they need so they are less sad to have you away. I love getting to know your pet’s temperament and interests. In addition to feeding and walking, I enjoy cuddling or playing with whoever I am caring for (the ones that like cuddles- I promise to leave fish in their tank!). I can easily bathe small to midsize animals while you are away for long periods and I am very responsible when it comes to medications. When possible, I like to take dogs out on fun excursions or to new places. If high energy, I prefer a safe area nearby to let them run or chase frisbees. Please let me know what needs your pet has!

About: I have been around animals my entire life. I adore all animals and really enjoy their company. Having two fur babies of my own I know the importance of having someone you trust take care of them. I would treat your pets as if they were my own. Pets are family and should be treated with love, compassion, and respect. I have taken care of animals of all ages. I can give medication if needed. I would love to spend time with your pets when you are not able to. I currently work part time from home and have a flexible schedule. I would have plenty of time to spoil your fur babies with walks and belly rubs. I can do doggy daycare and boarding almost any day and time as long as your dog is tolerant to other dogs and is up to date on vaccinations. Playtime, walks, snuggles, and whatever else your pups or cats needs are, I am more than happy to supply them with the love and attention they need while you are away.

“Aimee was wonderful! She cared for mine and my husband’s two cats while we were away. One of our cats is known for not being so friendly towards strangers, but she took to Aimee right away, which gave me a lot of reassurance. She provided excellent care for our cats and I hope she is available again next time we need a sitter.”

About: Hi there! I’m a future teacher who loves working with both kids and pets. I grew up with a sweet beagle who still lives with my parents, so I know firsthand how much energy, love, and attention dogs need. What sets me apart is my patience and reliability — qualities I’ve built through teaching and caring for animals. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or snuggles, I’ll treat your pets like my own and make sure they feel safe and happy while you’re away! I’m currently in a teaching credential program after leaving my job at Apple to focus on school full-time. My weekends are completely open, which makes pet care a great fit! I’d love to earn some extra income while helping someone care for their furry family member. I believe pets thrive in a calm, safe, and trusting environment. Whether in my home or yours, I make sure animals feel comfortable and cared for. I take time to understand their routines, use positive reinforcement, and keep their space clean and secure just like I would for my own family pet.

About: Ever since I was 10 I've taken care of dogs. I have experience in many different ages of dogs from newborn puppies to full grown. Since it is summer your pets will always fit in my schedule! Saturday and Sunday will be the only days I can't fit your pets in. I will always be willing to feed, clean, play and walk with your pets if they need it. I can stay overnight too as well.

“Jalisa was absolutely fantastic! She took such good care of Lilo while I was away. She was very reliable, communicative, and was available on such short notice! Jalisa kept me updated and provided photos that put my mind at ease. Lilo warmed up to her right away, which speaks volumes about her gentle nature. I came home to a happy, healthy kitty and a tidy house. Thank you Jalisa!!!”

“Thank you for everything!”

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.

“Alexandra was perfect with my cat lily. Came home after a week gone and she is behaving normal and happy like she had some good play time and attention! Thank you so much!”

About: Grew up with dogs and have had my own as an adult. I love all animals, but have a soft spot for dogs. I also love cats. I have experience with smaller animals too, like rats, snakes, and rabbits. I am currently working full time and in school, but would love to spend some time outside with your pup on an adventure. I have open availability during weekends. I have my own doggo best friend and I live in a house with a roommate and her dog. We have a backyard with a doggy door.

“Markita was so sweet to my cat, Comet, and ensured she was comfortable while we were out of town. Markita was able to administer Comet’s medication. Thank you, Markita!”

“She’s amazing! Stayed longer, helped more… just did more than asked and last second. Thank you so much!”
