“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.”

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!
“Jessica is truly one of the nicest people I have met and my kitty loved her and the care she gave. She addresses every question thoroughly and is great with accommodations. I highly recommend her!”

About: I have taken care of dogs for neighbors and friends consistently for the last seven years ranging from feeding and taking them out once a day to staying at their house for multiple weeks caring for large and small dogs. I volunteered at a humane society for three years where I worked mostly with walking, entertaining, and caring for dogs. Because of this I have a lot of experience with dogs of different temperaments and have learned how to get dogs out of sketchy situations with other dogs in public. I am currently working part time from 10am - 2pm on Tue/Thur and have class most evenings. Anytime outside of these times can work with my schedule! I am comfortable walking large dogs in public, keeping an eye on them in a pool or enclosed yard, as well as crating them if required. I have a standard sedan and am comfortable taking dogs to parks for walks as well. If I were to transport dogs I would be willing to take whatever measures to assure the dogs safety in the car, which would be up to the owner.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 10 years, and nothing makes me happier than spending time with them! I walk dogs all the time and genuinely loveeee every minute of it. Whether your pup loves long adventure walks, slow sniff sessions, or cuddle breaks, I meet them exactly where they’re at. I have an extremely flexible schedule so I am available throughout the day for walks, cuddle breaks, or if your small dog needs an overnight stay! I’m reliable, patient, and committed to making every pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. You can trust that your dog will be treated like one of my own—because that’s truly how I see them.
About: During my senior year of high school I started volunteering at my local county animal shelter. Over the summer, I was working with dogs 8 hours a week in addition to my self managed swim lesson business and swim team practices. I also own and have fostered senior dogs! As much as I love to play with energetic young dogs, seniors are just as great ;) Fish are another specialty of mine! I have been keeping fish since I was six so if you have pet fish they are in good hands :) I am currently a college student and I am on my college swim team. My schedule is flexible and I have a reliable car. I am happy to stay overnight in clients homes. Before I moved to college my dogs had access to a large fenced yard and lived with us in the home. They were taken out on daily walks. Additionally, I have a beagle at home so I am very good at keeping food out of reach. At the animal shelter I volunteered at I would use positive reinforcement with the dogs to help train them.
About: I have years of experience walking, feeding, bathing, and caring for pets, and my clients trust me to treat their furry friends like family. I am reliable, attentive, and committed to keeping every pet happy, healthy, and loved. I currently work as a neuroscience researcher! I maintain a very flexible schedule, so I have plenty of time to care for your pets! I did a lot of pet sitting in college, and I have continued to do this not just as a side job, but because spending time with animals brings me joy. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. Whether I am walking them, stopping by for a check-in, or caring for them in your home, I make sure they’re happy, secure, and well-looked after. I follow your instructions closely, keep a watchful eye on their needs, and treat your home with the same respect I give my own.
“Carmen did a great job of taking care of our dog. She came for a meet and greet before her first visit. She kept in touch with us after visits or walks with our dog and sent pictures as well. Would love to have her sit again.”

“My first time using Rover, was skeptical but everything went great with Olivia! She took great care of my pup and sent daily updates/pictures. Would highly recommend to anyone.”

About: I’m a UC Davis Animal Science student on the pre-veterinary track with experience working as a veterinary assistant at multiple pet hospitals. I’m confident in handling dogs and cats if all sixes, breeds and temperaments. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. Aside from classes I also work a part time job, and able to plan my schedule around walks, drop ins, feeding. I prioritize safety, trust, and a clam environment in both my home and my clients home. With my background as a veterinary assistant, I follow safe handling practices, and ensure the pet feels cared for and comfortable.
“Very punctual, attentive, kind, all the things. Because one of our three cats was undergoing a diet trial, the usual to-do list for our weekend away was a bit more complicated than average. She handled it just fine, no problems, and took some lovely pics to boot.”

About: I have been taking care of my two dogs since I was 15 years old, a small Yorkshire poodle and a medium-sized schnauzer mix. Neighbors in my hometown of Los Angeles have also relied on me to care for their dogs and cats when they are away for holiday vacations. My experience includes taking care of a 16-year-old dog named Pasha for several days, as well as caring for multiple cats in different households. This included looking after a pair of cats in one home and administering anxiety medication to another cat over a five-day period. I am a student at UC Davis and have a flexible schedule between classes and extracurricular activities, which allows me to spend plenty of time caring for pets. I am available throughout the day for walks, feeding, and check-ins, and I am also happy to help after classes, including longer visits or overnight stays if needed. I always ask clients for a list of responsibilities, so I know exactly what their pets need. I make sure to follow feeding schedules, spend time playing with and giving attention to the pets, and provide any care they require. I’m also happy to help keep the home tidy, like sweeping up leftover kitty litter, to make things easier for the owners.
“Can't recommend Esmerilda enough and would rebook with her without hesitation. She cared for my cats while away and provided the best, most detailed updates.EVER. Felt my furs might be in better hands with her........LOL! Seriously, she went absolutely above and beyond and even washed the dishes I had left, so completely unexpected and appreciated.”

I have had dog CPR training and experience with various medications and treatments for animals that need them. I have taken care of a cat that needed daily insulin injections. I have volunteered at various animal shelters and with several rescue programs. I am able to work with specific needs and requests. I will do walks in most weather! I am available to take care of pets most weekends and weekdays. I primarily work from home so my schedule is flexible. I love spending time with animals as much as possible.

When at someone else’s house, I am able to stay most of the time during the day with some exceptions.

About: Hi! My name is Tenaya! I grew up around animals and now I have a cat named Gnocchi. I worked as a veterinary assistant for three years, so I'm comfortable with animals of all ages and I'm capable of administering medications. I can also take care of aggressive or anxious dogs, and I’m happy to help reinforce good behavior for pets in training. I also have experience taking care of a range of exotic animals from working at an animal sanctuary. As someone who works from home, I have a lot of flexibility in my schedule! I can usually adjust my work hours to make time for your pet and their needs. I can also generally accept same-day bookings, especially for drop in visits or walks.

I really love animals and will do my best to care for your pet as you would!

Jessica provided truly excellent care for our 2 year old cat while we were out of town for several weeks. She played with her, got to know her personality and preferences, and continued to shift her care and support to make her life happy and healthy in our absence. Our time away from home was much easier knowing that Jessica was making daily visits for food, litter, pets, and play! In addition, Jessica's daily reports, photos and short videos were awesome! We looked forward to receiving them and taking a look each evening. Thank you so much, Jessica!!

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.

Bella was a wonderful cat sitter! She was incredibly sweet and responsible while taking care of my cat, Mochi. She kept me updated with regular messages and adorable pictures, which helped ease my mind while I was away. I could tell Mochi was in great hands. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter! :))
