He provided daily updates with photos and was very communicative. His love & understanding of dogs is apparent, which any dog parent can appreciate.

About: I used to work at two different vet clinics, as well as I've done basic dog training. Most of my training involves special cat handling, and administering medications. I have also always had pets, my entire life, cats and dogs Bunny's, chickens, goats, ducks fish birds you name it. I've had it. I've been around the block with almost every sickness you can think of when it comes to animals including cat cancer. I am well equipped handle the medical needs of animals. I am pretty much always home so I can almost always at least have One pet at a time unless it's two pets from the same owner In my home the cats have their own fairly large play crate, they have free roam as well . the dogs they have free roam are allowed on the couch unless the owner doesn't like that, in which case I will make sure they are not allowed on the couch. They can go into our back porch area and they can go into the front yard or the side yard. There's potty bags for me to pick up their poop and everything and if any of them have medical needs. I have been trained and know how to handle most medical needs

“Leah is amazing! She works with me if I have last minute changes or add ons. She's very attentive to the dogs. Keeps me informed of anything going on. Especially with my stubborn, picky eater pom! She helps give him medicine that's needed every day and also as needed. Leah also helps with some grooming, which is a huuuuge help. Highly recommend her services! Thank you Leah for taking care of Tater Tot!”


About: I have a heart full of love for DOGS and CATS alike. My pomeranian died two years ago and she wasn't just my dog, she was one of the family. She went everywhere with me. When your dog comes to our home, they will be treated like one of the family. When I have to get my daughter from school, there is a good possiblity, your dog will get to go for a car ride too. Just like they were my kid!! Daily walks are a must too. That is unless they just don't want to that day. I am flexible. We have playtime too. I am currently working remotely so I can give your furries all the love and attention they could possible need and want. They can have bathroom breaks as needed as well as daily walks. We have a fenced in yard so your furries are safe with us. We have one small dog and 4 cats that are friendly to other animals.

“I’ve taken my dog, Crowe, to Micheal three times now (we’re set up on weekly visits). Michael is a very kind, gentle person and great with Crowe. He even took him for a walk today, which I really appreciated! I also got some really cute photos and videos. Crowe is always happy to go there and I feel comfortable that he’s going to be well cared for. I’d definitely recommend Michael for your fur baby.”


“Ariana is very friendly and takes great care of my dog. I can tell that she is a "dog" person and that she knows what she is doing and really cares. It is a bonus that she does not over-charge for her services and offers the convenient pick up and drop off services. She takes several pictures and keeps me updated, which I appreciate.”


About: Updated: 7/5/2025 - I home sit (for overnights) at my home in Citrus Heights on almost an acre for clients who need dog sitting up to 2 dogs or 1 dog and 1 in house cat (spayed or neutered). I only sit one client at a time with one or two pets so I can give them full attention as I am retired.. Cats will be in outdoor cat condo under carport at this time. I don’t book out farther than 30 days. Additionally, I do drop-ins from 9 am to 5 pm daily. NOTE: I home care dogs in Citrus Heights (near Antelope & Sunrise). I've owned a variety of pure breed German Shepherds and a few rescue German Shepherds, a Golden Retriever, and a medium mix dog. I've taken some doggie training classes. My 11-year-old well behaved male German Shepherd who lives at my 2nd home in Rocklin with my husband. Let me know your dog's preferences for playtime... Frisbee, ball toss, tug toys, etc. for overnights (please provide the food). Look forward to meeting your sweet dogs. I do walk about around my large backyard on leash if you prefer your dog to keep up with walking training. It's a bit like a track in the backyard. Cats will be indoor (with litter box access). I'll send you a daily photo by text if you like. I'm retired and looking forward to have dog guests. If you vacation during the summer months this will work well for you. I prefer 3-4 night stays. In the house is ok too. I have a fenced yard that can be divided and fenced for smaller dogs too. It's a big property and dogs can be contained in smaller areas if you prefer. See pictures.

About: I grew up with three cats and 1 dog and have always loved animals! I always offer to cat/dog sit for my friends whenever they need and I thought it might be a good idea to offer pet sitting/walking services to others as well. I enjoy walks outside and keeping active but also enjoy just relaxing at home with my fur babies. I am also certified Medical Assistant so I have some medical insights (not completely veterinary) but general medical knowledge that could be helpful if ever needed. Animals truly are a gift and I enjoy being around them, even if just as their walking buddy for 20 minutes a day! I am employed to work full time, Monday - Friday from 8-5 but I am currently taking a short Leave of Absence for the next couple months and will be available for dog walking, pet sitting/boarding on weekdays and weekends. I currently do not have any pets of my own so there would be no concerns of other animals not getting along with yours. I live in a one bedroom upstairs unit apartment that is fairly spacious and it has a decent porch but no back yard. However, my apartment complex is pet friendly and has plenty of walking/grass areas for the dogs to do their business. And I am able to walk/take them out for potty breaks as much as needed/requested. I have had a lot of experience with cats as well and know how to properly clean out a litter box. I am also very attentive and detail oriented so if there are any dietary restrictions/instructions or just general care instructions for your fur babies, I am confident that I can accommodate your requests and provide amazing love and care for your babies! ❤️

About: Hi my name is Kristina. I have been taking care of pets for as long as I can remember. It’s safe to say I love animals more than humans! My pets are my family and I intend to treat your pets the same way. I am committed to maintaining a comfortable and safe environment in which your pup can thrive in. I work from home and can provide constant supervision for your pup. My availability is flexible and I can attend to your pets’ needs anytime during the day and night. Pet care is regularly part of my routine. I’m home to walk and play with your pup. I live in a spacious single family home, in a quiet court, with a locked and fenced backyard. There’s plenty of room to play and explore! Pets are free to come in and out.
