“My dog Euka is large, energetic, and high anxiety, which can make walks challenging. Not only did Maria handle Euka with ease, but she also gave him his medicine without issue. Maria took Euka on a long 2 hour walk visiting several parks where he played in the grass. Euka is a bit of a sneaky escape artist, but Maria managed him perfectly ensuring he was safe and secure. I enjoyed the updates and clever photos, I would highly recommend Maria with full and complete trust. Thank you Maria!”


“Kenn and Regina are fantastic! They are extremely caring with our puppy. All communication is professional and prompt. Really nice to find people so trustworthy and reliable.”


“Shawna took great care of my 2 pups. She definitely saved the day on a last minute request and was very sweet and understanding. She sent me pictures and kept me updated daily. Rocky & Apollo enjoyed her company very much. Will definitely use again.”


About: I’ve never known life without animals — I grew up surrounded by pets, and caring for them as part of the family has always come naturally. Over the years, I’ve become a trusted house and pet sitter for friends, neighbors, and family. I have experience with dogs of all ages, including senior dogs — from administering medication to going the extra mile to ensure they feel safe and comfortable. I’m committed to treating your pet like my own and your home with the utmost respect, always leaving things better than I found them. I currently have full flexibility in my schedule, which allows me to dedicate focused, personalized care tailored to each pet’s unique needs. Whether it’s daily visits, extended stays, or special requests, I make it a priority to be present and attentive. Caring for a pet is a responsibility I approach with the utmost respect and care, especially when entrusted to enter someone’s home. I understand that leaving your pet, even for a short time, can be stressful and full of worry. That’s why I make it a priority to follow all instructions carefully—feeding, medication, playtime, and quiet moments—while creating a calm, comfortable environment. To help ease your mind, I’ll regularly send photos and updates so you can see your pet happy and well cared for. My goal is for you to come home to a happy, content pet and a home just as you left it (or even better!).

“Jahquan was a great sitter for our two dogs. We had him do multiple check ins during our few days away and throughout that time he was very nice and had great communication. I would definitely use him again in the future!”

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.

We have two sweet and energetic dogs, a 2 year old female Golden retriever and a 4 year old male lab mix. They love to play, swim, and make new friends. They have never had an issue with meeting other pups. On their down time they like to take naps, chew on their bones and get their belly's rubbed. We have 2 indoor cats that keep to themselves. Our home is animal friendly, usually they go where ever we go. I have a son who loves animals, he will be thrilled to meet some new dogs and give them the love and attention they need as he does with ours.

Elliott H.
“Elliott has been a wonderful sitter for my dog Waldo and was a total lifesaver in a pinch. I initially reached out to Elliott when I experienced a family emergency and had to leave out of the country for a week. Elliott was able to quickly take Waldo and was very responsive during my trip. He regularly sent pictures and even taught Waldo some commands that we still use today. Waldo loves Elliott and his dog, he’s one of our favorite sitters.”
