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.

About: * Right now I can only accept dogs that are excellent with cats, doesn’t chase or show much interest in them. I have a senior cat that can’t protect herself by running away. Thanks! I am very respectful, quiet, and patient. Traits that dogs and cats seem to love! I have a huge soft spot for seniors. I love their energy and have a lot of respect for them. I am also a self proclaimed “Crazy Cat Lady”. I absolutely love cats and I have a very deep respect and connection with them. I love being around animals. I will get depressed if I don't fulfill my daily life with them. I have 5 years experience working at a veterinary hospital when I was in my 20's. I gained lots of knowledge and experience with pet medical care while I worked there. I assisted with surgeries, gave vaccinations, nail trims, and administered oral and injectable medications. I specialize in seniors. I have a deep love and respect for seniors. I love to massage, sing to and spend quality time with cats and dogs of all ages. I currently have a blind dog, and he has made me somewhat of an expert with blind or disabled pets. I learned to be hyper aware and sensitive to their needs on a whole different level. Animals have always been a huge part of my life. Growing up I had not only a dog and cat, but also rats, birds, hamsters, ferrets, fish finatic, turtles, snakes and rabbits! I loved each and every one of them. I am home full time and your pet will be by my side all the time, or close to me as much as they want (or don’t want!) I have a secured fenced in yard with extra protection for jumpers or diggers. I have a doggy door if they like it, if not I can let them out every hour or as much is needed.
“Lee was great! He is so friendly. He sent pictures and updates of Benny having a good time. Super flexible with his hours and took us very last minute. Thank you so much!”

“Wonderful experience and loved all the photos and updates!! Manuel took great care of my pup and treated her as his own. Nice fenced in yard and great pup of his own. 10/10 would recommend ?”

“Nelly has been great with our nervous pup Zoey. On the first day, Nelly introduced her gently and gradually to the environment, starting with the backyard and then moving indoors. Zoey was able to explore at her own place rather than being overwhelmed in the situation. Our baby has been less nervous each time we've visited thanks to Nelly's thoughtful care (and her friendly Chihuahua!) and we are so happy with the progress so far. Zoey previously stayed at a kennel but did not fare well at all because of her disposition. Now that we found Nelly, we can actually travel and see family again, with the peace of mind knowing Zoey will be in good hands.”

“I found Marcie on Rover and she responded quickly on such short notice. I contacted her on a Friday and she was able to accommodate our pit bull Jada the next day. Marcie was courteous enough to provide photos of Jada while at the dog park. Jada looked like she enjoyed her time with Marcie. We look forward to using Marcie again in the future.”

About: I had three dogs: Cookie, Brownie and Oreo, which I love deeply. They were with me for almost 15 years, unfortunately they recently died due to sickness. I’ve taken care of friends' dogs for a long time. I have become a dog sitter full time since I’m retired, I can spend a lot of time with the dogs I take care of. I only host one client at a time, to give the doggies a safe and playfull environment. I used to go for walks with my 3 dogs around the neighborhood every morning and play with them during the day. I have plenty of space in the backyard for them to run freely. My backyard is fenced and I have a lock on the backyard's door. My dog guests stay inside with me most of the time, I take them outisde for potty breaks and walks. They are allow on the couch, but not the bed.
“As always, Merri runs to the door. Pleased to be with Bari and Sonny and all her furry friends. I love the care and attention knowing Merri is tucked away safely, having fun while I work. Thank you!”


About: I have over 25 years of hands-on animal care experience, starting in childhood on a farm and continuing throughout my life. Caring for animals has always been a core part of who I am, not just something I do. I have extensive experience with dogs and cats. I am comfortable caring for pets of all ages, including pets with more medicine needs. I work with animals of all sizes and dispositions. I am very experienced with medication administration, including oral medications, subcutaneous injections in cats, injections in dogs, and specialty medications such as cancer treatments, which I administer carefully and safely using proper protective equipment. I am also familiar with veterinary care routines and attentive to changes in behavior or health. I am known for being gentle, patient, observant, and calm, even in challenging situations. I have significant experience caring for senior pets, animals with medical needs, and cats with strong personalities or aggression. I respect animals’ boundaries, read their body language closely, and know when to give space and when to confidently stand my ground so everyone stays safe and comfortable. What truly sets me apart is how deeply I care. I love getting to know each animal as an individual, learning their routines, preferences, and quirks, and interacting with them in the way that works best for them. I take pride in making animals feel safe, respected, and genuinely cared for while their humans are away. I’m trustworthy, attentive, and fully present when I’m with your pets. I will likely give them silly nicknames and may even sing to them, but above all, I will treat them with kindness, respect, and the same level of care I would want for my own animals. I work from home, which means my schedule is very flexible, and pet care fits seamlessly into my daily and weekly routine. Because I’m not tied to a rigid office schedule, I’m able to plan my days around pet visits, routines, and any special care needs rather than trying to fit them in between other commitments. I’m proud to be one of the go-to pet sitters in my Sacramento community, and I take that trust seriously. When I commit to caring for pets, they receive my full attention, not rushed or distracted care. I’m able to reliably maintain feeding schedules, administer medications, provide enrichment and companionship, and keep up with daily care tasks that help pets feel comfortable and secure. I understand how important consistency, calm, and reliability are for pets when their people are away. My flexible schedule allows me to spend quality time with each pet, observe their behavior closely, and notice any changes early. I communicate clearly and provide thoughtful updates so pet parents can feel confident and at ease while they’re gone. Pet sitting isn’t something I squeeze into my schedule. It’s something I intentionally make space for. I genuinely enjoy caring for animals and am excited to continue offering dependable, attentive, and compassionate pet care to my community. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, my approach is centered on safety, consistency, and respect for each pet’s routine. I take the time to understand each pet’s needs, preferences, and any special care instructions so their environment feels as familiar and stress-free as possible. I follow established feeding schedules, medication instructions, and care routines carefully, and I’m experienced administering a wide range of medications when needed. I’m attentive to behavior, appetite, energy levels, and overall comfort, and I address any concerns promptly and thoughtfully. I prioritize creating a calm, clean, and secure environment. I’m mindful of doors, gates, leashes, litter boxes, food storage, and any household safety considerations. I respect pets’ boundaries and personalities, and I interact with them in the way that works best for them, whether that’s active engagement, gentle companionship, or giving them space while still keeping a close eye on their well-being. Communication is very important to me. I provide regular updates, including photos, so pet parents can see that their pets are comfortable, happy, and well cared for. I’m responsive, transparent, and proactive with communication, which helps owners feel confident and at ease while they’re away. Above all, I care for pets with patience, attentiveness, and genuine affection. I take the responsibility seriously and treat every pet and home with the same level of care and respect I would expect for my own.

About: I have experience caring for my own Border Collie mixes into their senior years, so I’m very comfortable with pets who need a little extra patience, attention, and care. I’ve pet-sat for a variety of animals—including dogs, cats, turtles, and even chickens—and always make sure each pet gets the individualized care they need. I’m responsible, dependable, and have experience house-sitting for friends and family, ensuring every pet receives their daily walks, playtime, and plenty of love.

Kevin is great. My dog Gracie always has a wagging tail and is happy to be going to spend the day with him. He takes her on a nice long walk and she comes home happy and tired. He takes photos of her throughout the day which is always appreciated. He’s very flexible on timing. Definitely will book Kevin again!

Anna is exactly who you want looking after your pet. Maple, our dog, wags her tail so much and almost jumps out of the car to run to the door when we pull up to Anna’s house for daycare! If Maple could write this review, she’d tell you about nice walks, great front/back yard for sunbathing, and the 1:1 cuddle time. As Maple’s human, I’m very appreciate of Anna’s flexibility, communication, and great photos from daycare. Thanks Anna!

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.

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
Levi loved staying with Austin I’m not sure if he loved Austin or his pups more! Austin was very professional, with quick responses and great communication. He made the meet-and-greet, drop-off, and pick-up super easy. I picked up a happy and, tired baby each time.
