“I couldn’t recommend Frances enough. She is a great communicator. She made sure she understood all the needs of my dog before I left for my trip. She contacted me when she had a question about my dog’s behavior. All of these things helped me to relax and enjoy my time away knowing my dog was in super capable hands!”
About: Same day bookings only for repeat clients. Service area: Vallejo, Benicia, Suisun, Fairfield, Vacaville, Winters, Dixon, Davis, with priority given to Sacramento Metropolitan Area! Experienced not just with walking, feeding, & cleaning after pets, but also with being fully present with the animal(s) during my visit, that is, truly being there for them. I can prioritize pet care until August the 20th of 2025, which is when I start attending university. After this day, my availability will be updated as appropriate. I have been told by others that I am an "animal whisperer" .. I think I'm just someone who enjoys the company of animals, & often find animals enjoy the company of me.
“Absolutely fantastic dog sitter! Reliable, caring, and clearly loves animals—our pup Eggie was happy, well-exercised, and relaxed when we returned. She went above and beyond with her service. Highly recommended!”
About: Hi! I’m Samantha! I’m an experienced pet sitter and dog walker with a deep love for animals. I’ve cared for pets of all kinds and volunteered at the Berkeley Animal Care Shelter, where I worked with dogs and cats of all temperaments. I’m reliable, attentive, and always make sure pets feel safe, loved, and happy while you’re away. I’d love to care for your furry friend like they’re my own! I currently orioritize pet sitting as my main job since I do not work outside of that! This means your pet(s) will be at the center of my attention throughout their care! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I take the responsibility of caring for your pet and home seriously, always following your instructions closely and keeping routines consistent. I understand how important trust is when leaving your pet with someone new, and I’m committed to providing dependable, compassionate care you can feel confident about.
“This was our first time ever having someone outside of our family watch our dogs, so we were a little nervous—but Diyanna was amazing! She kept us updated several times a day, had great communication, and was so sweet. Our dogs absolutely loved her! We couldn’t be happier with the experience and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter.”
About: I rescued my dog, Skoshi, from a shelter in Okinawa, Japan. We spent 16 delightful years together romping across the U.S. I have extensive experience with dogs, including: walking, playing, feeding, elderly dog care, administering medication and bring joy and love into dog's lives. I am currently a full time dog walker/sitter. I have plenty of time to walk, play and care for your dog/pet. I'm available for walks (30-60 minutes), play dates and pet/house sitting. I'm generally available between 8:00 AM - 6:00 PM and overnight stays when sitting. When your pet(s) are with me, they have my full attention. My first priority is the safety and well being of your pet. Once established, I like to concentrate on exercise: walking, running, and playing. Any instructions given (crating, medication, meals, etc.) will be followed exactly. I'm excited to reinforce any training (sit, lay, stay, heal, etc.) as part of a walk or play session using (approved) treats and positive reinforcement.
“Alexis was absolutely amazing! She was so loving and caring for my 4 month old pup. Sent multiple updates, many videos and I could tell Sonny was taken care of. I was able to be at peace knowing he was taken care of and loved while I was gone. I highly recommend Alexis and will definitely be reaching out to her again!”
“Eskarlet did an amazing job taking care of our pups! This was our first time using a pet sitter and we won't go back to boarding if we have the choice! She was diligent in care for our dogs, sent photos and videos of their time together and even took care of bringing packages in for us. I highly recommend Eskarlet of pet/house sitting!”
“Jill was absolutely amazing! She was a great communicator — sent me multiple pupdates a day with photos of Watson’s adventures. She was very knowledgeable about dogs and their behavior, which made me feel at ease leaving my (occasionally reactive but always adorable) dog in her care. She followed all my instructions and left my house looking immaculate. It was so nice after a long day of traveling to get home to fresh sheets and a house that was even cleaner than when I left. She even replaced my flowers with fresh ones! 🥹 Watson absolutely loved her and I’m pretty sure misses her (and her doggy massages) already! I can’t recommend Jill enough and hope to have her come care for Watson again in the near future!”
About: I’ve cared for pets my whole life, everything from playful puppies to senior dogs needing a gentle touch. I’m patient, calm, and highly attentive to each pet’s unique personality and routine. But what sets me apart from others is the genuine bond I build with animals. I don’t just watch pets but more importantly, I engage with them, making sure they feel safe, loved, and entertained. I’ve cared for a wide range of pets, including Labrador Retrievers, Pit Bulls, Yorkshire Terriers, and just about every kind of cat from independent seniors to bottle fed kittens. I am also comfortable with pets that need a little extra care. I’ve administered liquid medication to cats and have experience with feeding schedules, playtime routines, and comforting anxious animals. Whether your pet is energetic or laid back, I adapt to their needs and make sure they feel safe, loved, and at home while you’re away. If there’s something you need that I haven’t done before, I’m more than happy to learn. My goal is to give you peace of mind while you’re away, knowing your pet is in good hands I am currently in my second year of college at sac state university. My schedule varies each semester but I always keep a M/W/F schedule. As of this current semester it is only M/W, id be gone during the hours of 6:15am-11:15am. Before or after those times I am free and any other day of the week or weekend I am free unless posted otherwise! While I can’t provide care in my own home due to having pets of my own, I’m more than happy to care for your pets in the comfort of their home. I understand that every animal has their own routine and personality, so I always follow your instructions closely to keep things familiar and stress-free. Whether it’s feeding schedules, playtime preferences, or special needs, I’m here to make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away.
About: I have a 17 year old senior dog as well as 1 year old puppy. I can handle all different personalities from grumpy old pup to super hyper puppy. Im available Sunday-Thursday occasionally I work at my job on tusday though. You can message me if you are worried about tusday otherwise I am pretty available for work. Like I have mentioned I have both a senior dog and cat. As well as young cat and dog. For the senior animals they typically need extra attention and things to help them with age. Where the younger you need patience with training and them learning ect. I did train my puppy though I am not a trainer I know a little.
About: Most of my experience is with younger/middle-aged dogs, and I focus on making them feel safe, engaged, and cared for. I try to meet each dog where they’re at and make sure they feel comfortable. I’m currently a student in college, so I have a lot of gaps in my schedule that I would love to fill with your pets! I’m available at varying times during the day and available most nights. I treat each home with the same respect and care I would my own. I follow the pet’s routine closely to help them feel comfortable and secure in their familiar space.
About: What I've learned in my ten years watching animals is that, big or small, all pets need a little extra looking after when their people are away. From allergy medicine to daily long walks and a whole lot of fetch I've found that every dog is unique in their needs. I look forward to getting to know your furry friend or friends and helping them maintain a sense of comfort and fun while their family is away! My main gig is watching animals and houses. I'm happy to work any time I don't have other clients booked. Thank you for your consideration. Keeping animals in their familiar routine is my main focus. Whatever their usual daily schedule looks like (feeding times, walks, bedtime, etc) is what I try to recreate. I have experience giving medication if needed and am happy and able to provide walks as far as your pet enjoys.
“Rocelyn was amazing! She took my last minute booking request and watched our dog for a few days and gave her constant attention and activity while keeping us updated with frequent pictures.”
About: Hi! I have a lot of experience with animals and had a variety when I was younger. Cats, dogs, rats, chicks and ducks. I currently work more with dogs and cats, big or small. Im working part time at the moments and get around 15 hours per week, so I have plenty time for pet care. House sitting, walks, or day drop ins! I have three extremely friendly cats to keep them company if im taking care of your fur baby in my home, extremely social, but understand if another animal doesn't wanna play with them. If its in your home Ill respect the animals boundaries and attitude, I would be a stranger to them after all.
About: Hi there! We are a spunky and caring couple working from home fulltime with flexible schedules to give your furbaby all the care and attention they need. During a stay with us, your doggo will enjoy not only our attention but the company of our three sociable dogs, Coco, Osito, and Tulipan. We take our dogs on at least 2 walks/outings per day in addition to having multiple indoor play sessions. We have a large fenced park right across the street that is perfect for running, playing fetch, or just sniffing about offleash. We have lots of flexibility in our work schedules and we are at home fulltime. This means that your furbaby will have our supervision and care the entire day minus the occassional grocery or errand run. Coco and Ostio are both socialized and they are used to having other dogs join the pack. We live in a very safe and peaceful neighborhood in NW Vacaville with little traffic. This makes it an ideal place to go on leisurely walks with the dogs on one of the numerous trails nearby or take them across the way to the fenced park for some offleash time.
“Amazing!! Just amazing! Isabel treated my dogs like her own, went out of her way to pickup meds when one of our dogs ran out, and kept our house spotless. When we got stranded in Tahoe she was willing to stay extra days. She was a fantastic communicator and all around wonderful human being!!”

Bucktown pet parents share their Rover experiences
We couldn't be more grateful for Isabel and the care she provided for our senior dog, Yoda. This was both his and our first time being apart, and Isabel made the entire experience smooth and reassuring. She was incredibly attentive to Yoda’s special needs—being both blind and deaf, he requires extra help with eating and drinking, and Isabel handled everything with such patience and compassion. She kept us updated regularly, followed all our instructions closely, and maintained our home with care and cleanliness. Isabel is not only professional and reliable but also has a genuinely kind and thoughtful nature. We would absolutely trust her again and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for exceptional pet care.
