“Dina is seriously great. This was the first time using a pet sitter for a long trip when I didn’t come home to a messy house because of my cats. My one cat throws up almost daily and Dina was so kind in cleaning up after her in addition to providing all their care and attention needs. Dina was seriously amazing in dealing with my very grumpy old lady cat. Thank you so much for your kindness and professionalism, Dina.”
“Jessica did a great job taking care of our two cats. She had clear communication and sent lots of lovey pictures of our fur babies. We appreciated that she helped out with our garden too!”
About: What sets me apart is as a pre-vet student, my clinical experience working in a veterinary setting, where I assisted in vaccine clinics and gained hands-on exposure to animal handling and care. This experience taught me how to safely and calmly work with animals of different temperaments, including those who may be nervous or stressed. I also have over 10 years of experience with a variety of species including dogs, cats, cows, goats, pigs, chickens and birds. I am happy and open to take care of all animals. I’m attentive to detail and able to recognize changes in behavior, appetite, or energy that could indicate a problem. While I provide loving and reliable care, I also bring a level of awareness and responsibility that comes from working in a clinical environment. I’m comfortable following specific care instructions and making sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for. Beyond that, I truly enjoy spending time with animals and make an effort to build trust and give them the attention and affection they need. Afterall, it's all I want to do as I pursue my dreams to becoming a Veterinarian :) I have a very flexible schedule, I am available every day, including weekends, with the exception of Tuesdays and Thursdays when I have classes. I make sure to plan my schedule around the pets I’m caring for so they receive plenty of time, attention, and exercise. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. In a client’s home, I carefully follow all instructions to maintain their normal routine, environment, and feeding schedule to reduce stress. I always ensure doors, gates, and leashes are secure, and I closely supervise pets during walks and playtime. I create a calm, clean, and safe environment and pay close attention to behavior or any signs of discomfort. With my background in animal science and clinical settings, I am detail-oriented, reliable, and focused on making sure your pet feels safe, cared for, and at ease while you’re away.
“Emily was very communicative and made sure to always share photos of our fur babies so that we could see they were doing great without us there. She always made sure to check off every need and went beyond our expectations in taking care of our cats. I would definitely recommend!”
“Sofia had great communication and updated me during every visit she had with my pug. Even though my dog can be stubborn when it comes to eating, she always made sure he ate and was taken care of.”
“Jessie is wonderful to have as our pet sitter! She communicates well and was so great with Oslo. She is totally trustworthy and we will definitely be calling upon her again!”
“Megan was fantastic with my cat Norman. Norman is a diabetic cat who can be aggressive with strangers when they try to give insulin, so it's often tough to find sitters who can manage him. I was so happy with how patient and compassionate Megan was with him. She was extremely reliable and a great communicator, and was able to make sure he got his insulin on time everyday. I would really highly recommend Megan, you can definitely trust her to take great care of your pet!”
“Carmen was super caring and followed all my instructions perfectly! She was very communicative and made sure to clarify instructions when needed. I would absolutely recommend her as a pet sitter! My cat Pumpkin loved her and appreciated the many cuddles :)”
About: I have grown up with dogs in the house and am well attuned to the needs of pets in every setting. I feel confident walking, spending time with, and caring for pets of all support needs and sizes. I am a student at UC Davis with a light course load for this quarter. I have excellent time management skills because of my previously busy schedule balancing classes and a D1 sport, but my season has ended so I have much more free time to care for your pets. When coming by for a drop in visit or to pick up your pet for a walk, I will be mindful of any and all house rules and wishes to provide the best possible care. I am experienced with a variety of housing environments and can adapt based on what the situation needs.
“Audrey did an awesome job watching my cats, I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. My cats loved Audrey back, as evidenced by pics of them crawling all over Audrey, lol! The litter box was clean, and they were fed and happy when I got home too, just like I was hoping. Audrey was kind and pleasant to be in contact with.”
“Michaelle was super responsive, great at communicating, and did an excellent job checking in on my two cats. My cat Edna is skittish and mistrustful of anyone not living in the house, but even she readily accepted food and attention from her when she came to visit! I would definitely hire her again in the future to look in on them when we're out of town.”
About: A former UC Davis graduate. I’ve taken care of dogs all my life. I’m a dependable and attentive pet sitter who focuses on creating a calm, low-stress experience tailored to each animal’s personality and routine. I’m especially skilled at reading behavior cues, helping shy or anxious pets feel comfortable, and maintaining consistency with feeding, cleaning, and enrichment. My background in structured, fast-paced environments has made me highly organized and reliable, so pet owners can trust that every detail will be handled with care and responsibility I’m currently free during the work week most times of the day. I also have availability on weekends on a need to need basis. I’m ready and willing to spend as much time as your pets need. I wouldn’t be able to take care of pets in my own home but can do whatever is needed in their homes. I am good at providing structured resting time as well as play and can provide support with any trailing being done in the home
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs all my life whether it comes to feeding, training, walking, and playing. I have also recently been taking care of senior dogs. Currently I am on summer break from school so I have a lot of time to be working and helping with furry family members for others. I can do whatever is needed in order to care for your pets as well as follow any detailed instructions you may give me to ensure your pets well-being.
“It’s clear Juliana really loves animals and that always makes me feel great about leaving my pets in her care. She always sends great updates and I trust she takes good care of them. They love her too!!”
“Negin was super sweet and engaging, and has excellent chemistry with animals. She stayed at our home and took care of our cat, and my cat seemed very pleased. I got pictures and videos of Negin and my cat daily. I would use Negin again, and I thank her for the care she provided for Monkey.”
About: I've pet-sat for friends and neighbors since I was 12. I have experience with dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, dietary restrictions, and health complications. I have owned all types of pets from small hamsters and mice, to turtles and fish, rabbits, and dogs. I am also an avid plant person and love to care and nurture my plant babies just as much as I do my pets. I have extended gaps in between work projects and am available to walk and play with your pets, or just hang out at home with them! When working I am available for overnight stays, early mornings, or after 5 pm on weekdays. My weekends are flexible and I will work hard to make my schedule revolve around your pets needs. When I'm not working my schedule is devoted to you and your pets and I am available weekdays and weekends. I will treat your pets like they're my own! I am also willing to do other house sitting tasks such as care for plants and smaller animals in the home. Let me know what you need me to do to keep your home running smoothly while you are away.
About: I have taken care of cats and dogs at all stages of their lives! From birth to old age, I have bottle-fed and waned puppies, kitten sat, as well as administered insulin shots and oral medications to older cats and dogs. One of my kitties now also takes an oral pill twice daily, so I also have some experience giving cats pills :). I am a full-time student who just moved to Davis! I have a flexible schedule, meaning maintaining strict feeding or medication times should be no problem! I make sure all water sources are clean and replaced regularly, food bowls and cans are rinsed/washed immediately to avoid lingering smells, and do a quick walk-through of the pets' spaces to make sure your fur baby(s) didn't get into things they weren't supposed to. I also love plants, so in my own home, i keep them watered and check regularly for if there are new chomps in them and would be very happy to do the same for you if that is at all a concern :). And, of course, I offer plenty of play time with the kitties!
“This is the second time I’ve booked with Meredith and she did a wonderful job looking after our cat. She kept us updated with pictures, cards, and messages and even brought the mail in for us. We’ll be booking again!”

Jessica and her daughters did a fantastic job taking care of my cats while I was away. She was reliable and communicative. She kept me updated and made sure everything kitties need were taken care of. My cats were happy and relaxed when I returned, which says a lot. I really appreciate their professionalism and kindness.
Hannah was exceptional!! Extremely communicative and sent me a video of my cat with update pictures of food and water. She followed all instructions to a tee and was an absolute pleasure to work with! I highly recommend Hannah if you need someone to take care of your pet!
Lily was absolutely wonderful! She cared for our four cats while we were away for 10 days and sent daily updates with photos that gave us total peace of mind. She was easy to reach, reliable, and a joy to work with. She even brought in our packages for us. I’d definitely hire her again and highly recommend her to anyone needing a loving, dependable pet sitter!
Adele was great with our two cats. They warmed up to her quickly. She was attentive and played with them, she communicated with us and responded quickly. She was friendly but still professional, and we highly recommend her to watch your pets. Adele is a wonderful pet sitter.
