“I couldn't ask for more from a dog sitter. Marcie followed my instructions, provided a comfortable environment with positive stimulation, kept me updated with messages/pics and was just an overall pleasant person. Wonderful job!”
“I have used Manny for daycare on multiple occasions in recent weeks. I am an extremely neurotic pet parent and I always get nervous taking my dog to a new sitter. Manny went above and beyond in talking through my questions at length and asked thoughtful questions about my dog’s needs. My dog has done really well at Manny’s and I will be using his services in the future!”
About: As a veteran and current member of the Army National Guard, I understand the importance of trust, responsibility, and dependable care. I will treat your dog like my own with patience, love, attention, and plenty of care to make sure they feel safe and happy while you’re away. I currently work part-time in the National Guard and am in the process of joining California Corrections. Because of my flexible schedule, I have plenty of time available for daily or weekly pet care. I care for every pet as if they were my own. I provide a safe, loving, and attentive environment whether I am caring for them in my home or in a client’s home. I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and affection so they feel comfortable and cared for while their owner is away.
“I dropped off my 7 lb chihuahua, Molly, for a daycare session with Hana yesterday, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! I’ll admit I was really nervous at first, Molly is tiny, and there were two other dogs there, one of whom was super excited to meet a new friend. So much energy can make Molly hesitant, but Hana immediately stepped in with calm, confident leadership. She set clear boundaries to help everyone settle down, which made me feel so much more comfortable. Throughout the day, she sent me several videos showing Molly relaxed and happy, calmly hanging out with the other dogs and going for a nice walk. By the end of the day, Molly was curled up on the couch with Hana, her husband, and her two new friends, a huge sign of trust from my usually cautious little dog! Hana showed wonderful leadership, genuine care, and constant attention throughout the day. I left feeling completely reassured and grateful to have found someone so capable and kind. I’ll definitely be booking again!”
About: I have experience with a wide range of pets! Medication, grooming, and basic care all in one person who actively communicates to ensure your satisfaction and care of your family member. I was a dog/cat groomer for 6 years and worked at a doggie daycare for 4 years, working with a wide range of breeds and personalities has helped me accurately read pets and their needs. I have experience with dogs, cats, birds, reptiles, and small pets. Pet care is a natural part of my daily and weekly routine—it’s something I genuinely look forward to. Whether it’s morning feedings, litter box cleaning, grooming, or quiet cuddle time, I schedule each task with care and consistency. I make sure every pet gets the attention and comfort they need, and I adjust my routine around their habits and preferences. For me, caring for pets isn’t a task—it’s a meaningful part of my day. I am available around the clock so just let me know when you need me! Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or a client’s, I create a calm, clean, and comfortable environment where they feel safe and loved. I follow each pet’s routine closely—feeding schedules, playtime, grooming, and any medication needs—so they experience as little stress as possible. In my home, I maintain a pet-friendly space with plenty of enrichment and supervision. When visiting a client’s home, I respect their space and ensure their pet receives attentive, personalized care just as they would if you were there.
“Tessa has been so sweet and wonderful with our recent GSD rescue! She kept us well informed with communication and photos, and also shared some roast beef with our Ruby girl, really winning her over! We’ve had two visits so far and we all feel good about the overnight stays coming up. Thanks, Tessa!”
“Bari and Felix were great!! They sent us plenty of pictures and updates and our dog had a great time at their house, and even made a friend. We'd definitely have him stay with them again!”
About: I have hands-on experience in animal care, including working at Banfield Pet Hospital and studying veterinary medicine for three years in Minnesota. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes and temperaments and can safely administer medications if needed. I am also a preschool teacher and a student at Sacramento State, and I provide pet care services to help support my education while continuing to work with animals. My home also includes a large fenced yard where dogs can safely run, explore, and play under supervision. Dog Requirements & Policies: I welcome dogs of all breeds and do not have breed restrictions. Please let me know ahead of time if your dog is spayed or neutered. My two spayed resident dogs are female and generally get along well with both male and female dogs. However, if your dog is not spayed or neutered, owners must inform me in advance so I can ensure that no intact dogs are present at the same time. For health and safety, owners must provide proof of the following vaccinations: • Bordetella • Rabies Dogs staying here have free access to the house and backyard, fresh water is available at all times, and dogs are welcome on furniture. If I am briefly away or overnight, dogs are placed in secure outdoor kennels for safety and supervision. Leashes are provided for walks and outdoor outings. However, all dogs must arrive wearing a collar with identification tags, including contact information and a rabies tag (if you don’t have rabies tag, please provide copy of vet records). Dogs staying here have free access to the house and backyard, fresh water is available at all times, and dogs are welcome on furniture. If I am briefly away or overnight, dogs are placed in secure outdoor kennels for safety and supervision. Your pet’s safety and comfort are very important to me. I have several systems in place to ensure a safe and supervised environment: • Apple AirTags for tracking during outdoor activities • Nanny cam monitoring if I step away briefly • Structured outdoor kennel system with bedding and treats • Veterinary knowledge and experience with animal care
“Great Doggy Daycare! Annie took wonderful care of my dog, Shiloh, during daycare. She was kind, professional, and kept great communication. Shiloh came home happy and relaxed, which tells me everything I need to know! I highly recommend Annie. Randy & Shiloh 🐾”

“Roy was amazing! Took care of the dogs well and sent multiple pictures. My dogs are usually anxious to meet new people but was able to get comfortable with him very quickly, will book again :)”
“I got updates and pictures throughout the day, and Ron was very easy to reach and quick to respond! Meera came home tired and relaxed and was so cuddly☺️ Would definitely recommend!!”
“I cannot say enough amazing things about Deborah. My puppy HATES leaving her house and always comes home and falls right asleep, which is a sign that she has had the time of her life. Deborah is quick to respond, super flexible, takes lots of pictures/videos, and is extremely reliable. She’s become my puppy’s regular sitter. You won’t go wrong with having her watch your fur baby!”

Anna was awesome. I drove into town for a work conference. Jabba is older and I didn’t want to leave him home in case something came up. Anna was flexible on drop off and pick up. She fed, played with, and kept Jabba company all day. It was such a relief to know he was safe, sound, and nearby.
Kylie is everything you hope for in a pet sitter. She met with us beforehand, which immediately put me at ease, and the moment she and Baklava met it was clear she was the right person for the job!! He warmed up to her almost instantly, which honestly says a lot about her because he can be a picky judge of character. She took the time to really understand his quirks (and he has plenty), and I never once felt anxious leaving him in her care. She also took great care of the house, which is always appreciated! We’ll be booking Kylie again without a second thought, she’s earned our complete trust and we’re so lucky to have found her. 10000% would recommend!
I have used Manny for daycare on multiple occasions in recent weeks. I am an extremely neurotic pet parent and I always get nervous taking my dog to a new sitter. Manny went above and beyond in talking through my questions at length and asked thoughtful questions about my dog’s needs. My dog has done really well at Manny’s and I will be using his services in the future!
I feel lucky to have found Ong to watch Zoya and Misha. We were in a tough spot after our original sitter canceled on us at the very last minute, but Ong stepped in and saved the day. The communication was great. Ong is very responsive and replies almost instantly. She also pays attention to detail regarding the dogs' needs, while still being incredibly flexible and accommodating to our specific situation and schedule. If you need someone reliable and caring, Ong is a great choice. We're very happy with how everything turned out.
Katherine was absolutely wonderful with our dog, Vigo. She is clearly very experienced and comfortable with all different kinds of dogs, which immediately put us at ease. We felt completely confident leaving Vigo with her for two consecutive days while we visited Sacramento. Katherine has an excellent system for thoughtfully and safely socializing dogs, and it was clear that Vigo felt comfortable with her and engaged right away. Our dog has A LOT of energy and loves to run and play, and he was genuinely happy and very content when we picked him up both days. We couldn’t have been happier with the care Vigo received. I highly recommend Katherine to anyone with dogs of any breed or temperament. We wish she lived closer to us for regular stays but will absolutely go back to her any time we’re in the area.
We contacted Hallie at the last minute for dog care help on Thanksgiving. She was available to take care of our 3 Aussies for the day and as late as we needed. Hallie was great and very flexible. She asked questions about their needs. The dogs settled in right away and even took naps, a sure sign they were comfortable. I loved that she was able to take them for walks - they are pretty high energy. She sent us a wonderful photo of the 3 doggos. It made us feel so good and allowed us to really enjoy our visit with family. We will absolutely contact Hallie again when we are back in the area.
Caroline was very communicative and took great care of our dog, Millie. Millie takes a while to warm up to people and Caroline was happy to interact with Millie on her terms. She sent pictures and updates throughout the day which really eased our minds! I would book a service with Caroline again.
The inital booking was sent for Gracie to be dropped off at Ashlynn's, at 6:30. Once Ashlynn's plans had changed, and she could begin watching Gracie earlier then scheduled, she was quick to let us know; so we could drop her off sooner; which was a greatly appreciated and helped with our plans. Ashlynn is very nice and attentive to details. When I reached out to see how it was going, I got a quick reply, with a picture attached. Gracie is a rescue dog, and very much clingy to me; as I work from home and am with her 24/7. Upon arriving at Ashlynn's and meeting her, Gracie willingly trotted off with her and not once looked back. finding Ashlynn to watch Gracie, was a God send and I would hire her every opportunity I had; if a dog sitter was needed
