About: I've grown up around cats and dogs my whole life, so I am very used to being around them. I love dogs but I do feel I have a close affinity with cats more. Either way they are both great to love on. I'm currently working from home right now so I have plenty of time to spend with the fur kids. I'm currently available whenever needed as long as its reasonable, and of course schedules will change the more work I take on. We have a big fenced backyard for any animals to run around it. And a dog a 2 cats that are totally fine around others. Especially the dog who would love any new friend.

“Christina did such a great job taking care of our dog, cat, and home. She watered our plants and took really good care of our home. We are definitely going to rebook her.”

“Elena was kind, took excellent care of my pup, and the house was spotless up on my return. I was gone for a little over week and Elena didn't miss a beat.”

About: ✨ Insured 🐶 Small & Medium Boutique Dogs + Rescue Pups 📍 Catering to small-medium sized Boutique Dogs and Rescues of East Sac, Tahoe Park, Elmhurst & Midtown 🍼 Puppies Welcome 🐈 Kitties too! (Up to 4 at a time!) 🐾 30+ Years of Experience ⭐ 5-Star Treatment 📋 References available 🐾 Puppies!! Kitties!! Doggies!!—Oh My! Since I was a kid I’ve always had a furry best friend by my side. I’ve been pet and house sitting since I was 12 years old. My specialty is small- to medium-sized boutique dogs and rescue pups, providing personalized care to the furry residents of East Sacramento, Tahoe Park, Elmhurst, and Midtown. As a resident of these areas myself, I know the neighborhoods, streets, parks, and walking areas well, so your pets will be cared for by someone who is truly local and familiar with the territory. I provide individualized care based on your pet’s personality, routine, and needs. I’m especially patient with shy, timid, or cautious rescue pups and love earning their trust at their own pace. Whether your pup loves long walks, endless games of fetch, cozy couch snuggles, or simply having someone nearby who makes them feel safe and loved, I’m happy to be their stand-in best friend while you’re away. You can count on me to keep your home clean, tidy, and secure, respect your belongings and privacy, and leave everything just as you left it—or cleaner. .My specialties include expert belly rubs, enthusiastic walks, championship treat-giving (with permission!), and a Ph.D. in sweet animal baby talk. 🐶🐱💕 And kitties are welcome, too! I’m happy to provide meals, playtime, litter care, affection, and companionship—while fully understanding that cats generally prefer to be the ones in charge. 😸 Personalized care, happy pets & peace of mind—because your boutique babies and rescues deserve 5-star treatment! I’m currently finishing my degree in Social Work at American River College. I do have to go to campus (15 mins away) 4 days a week-Mon-Thursday from 10am-1pm. I prefer to work from anywhere with a reliable Wi-Fi connection, allowing me to spend plenty of quality time with your pets while staying on top of my coursework. At the moment, I have a very open and flexible schedule, making it easy for me to accommodate a variety of pet care needs. I also have reliable transportation, so whether your pets need walks, drop-in visits, overnight care, or house sitting, I’m dependable and happy to help! Every pet is different, and I think that’s what makes this so much fun! I always like to meet in person or on zoom beforehand getting to know you and you getting to know me and of course learning about your pet’s routine, personality, likes, dislikes, quirks, and favorite spots to be scratched before I even start. ***My goal is to make your time away feel as normal and stress-free for them as possible.*** Whether that means sticking to a strict feeding schedule, going on long walks, playing fetch until we’re both tired, giving medications, or simply curling up on the couch for a cuddle session, I’m all in. I’ll also send plenty of photo and video updates because I know how much it means to see your fur baby happy while you’re away. As for your home, I treat it with the same respect I would my own. I’ll keep it clean, secure, and cared for, bring in the mail, water plants if needed, and leave everything just as you left it—or cleaner! My job is to make sure you come home to a happy pet, a well-cared-for home, and absolutely nothing to worry about. That’s the kind of peace of mind I’d want if someone were caring for my own furry family members.

“Joel was great to work with and took excellent care of Indy. The week before my booking, my dog fell ill and needed to take medication. Joel was flexible and accommodated the changes like a pro. I will definitely work with Joel again.”

About: I do in kennel enrichment and dog walking at the SPCA. It has educated me a lot about positive reinforcement training, desensitization, compassion, and counter conditioning within dog behavior. I am very understanding of every dog's different temperaments and boundaries. I am the proud owner of Max, an 11 year old Pitbull who has been my best friend for over a decade. I am available anytime after 12pm, where your dog’s established routine becomes my priority. Whether they need strict mid-day feeding times or frequent potty breaks throughout the afternoon, I will be there for your pet. I am able to offer consistent, focused attention, structured enrichment, and companionship exactly when your pet needs it most. Safety is my top priority, with SPCA volunteer training and 11 years with my senior Pitbull, Max. In your home, I strictly follow your routine, maintain your house rules, and ensure all doors and gates stay locked and secure. On walks, my shelter experience means I am hyper-aware of our surroundings, good at reading dog body language, and fully confident being your dog's handler. I will send you regular photo updates so you have total peace of mind.

“Jenna had her hands full with my two pups for sure! She did a fantastic job taking care of them and was super responsive with sending me updates and pictures each day. I would absolutely recommend her!”

About: I have been taking care of animals pretty much all my life. I am an animal lover, especially good at caring for senior animals and those with special needs. I have recently left teaching and currently I work part time and can make my own schedule. I sometimes care for my granddaughter during the week, but my schedule is pretty flexible. I will care for your pets in your home where they are comfortable. I will tend to their needs, we will play and bind and have a wonderful time and you will be able to enjoy your time away without having to worry about them.

About: I was previously a professional dog trainer for a year at a facility and plan to make it part of my future! I am now a vet assistant, as I work on finishing my schooling for my certification in vet tech. I have always been very passionate about animals and have many of my own. I have pet sat many friends and neighbors animals over the years doing task such as feeding, bathing, providing stimulation, giving medication, and more. I love to help out any way I can and will ensure your furry companions will always be safe and happy in my care:) I am a full-time dog trainer and have Thursday and Fridays off that I can fully dedicate to your furry friends. I am also available any time after 5 any other day that is available on my calendar. I will ensure all animals will be very closely supervised (even in fenced areas), and attended to however they may need. I will do quick health checks before and after handling the animal.

About: There's something about caring for dogs and cats that brings my heart alive. There's nothing I'd rather do than care lovingly attentively for these animals. I am a retired English teacher, and my time is unlimited. I prefer long term, overnight sitting in your home. I am fit and love walking and playing with your loved one. I treat them as if they were my own. Having been raised caring for my families dogs, cats, horses, cows, ducks, fish, and even peacocks, I am most comfortable with animals. I follow instructions, administer medicine when necessary, and leave your home in perfect condition as you left it. Some folks say I'm too old to do this...I know I'm not. I can walk 2 miles easily with dogs. I have described my affection for dogs and cats which I hope reflects the care I will provide, and I would be so pleased to serve you.

“We had Brina stay with our pups for four days and she really bonded with them in that short time. She has maturity and is very responsible, paying attention to the details and our pups were very happy and quite calm upon our return. She has a gentle and mellow personality which mirrors that of our little cavaliers. Brina took great care of our babies as well as our home in our absence. We are quite pleased with Brina and we look forward to having her stay in our home for a longer, extended time. Thank you Brina.”

About: I’m an experienced dog mom of 8 years now. I’m always somebody that people call when they need somebody to watch their dogs/cats because everyone knows how much I love animals. I prefer spending my time with animals compared to humans sometimes lol. I’m currently working part-time, but as of the next few weeks, I will be working from home, so I’ll be available anytime needed! I’m a very gentle, loving person. I will watch your fur babies and care for them as I do my own! I wouldn’t do anything that you wouldn’t do :)

“Our very senior dog is always in a good mood after a dog sitting session with Kat. She’s very communicative with us and we could not be happier!”
