“Another amazing visit with Holly! Our 2 cats and 1 senior dog adore her, and Holly’s attentiveness and care allows us to leave town and not worry about our fur babies one bit. Thank you, Holly!”
“We had a great experience with Jenna ! She was kind, flexible, and clearly cared about our dog, Daisy. She made sure Daisy got her walks and plenty of attention while we were away. We also really appreciated coming home to a clean house—it was such a nice touch. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and thoughtful sitter!”
“Hayley was great with my senior dog and accompanying cat. It was great to get the check-ins while away and have the full confidence that the fur-kids were getting the best care. We'll definitely be looking for a rebook soon!”
About: I’ve had many dogs throughout my life, from growing up with them to having dogs of my own. Although my experience with pets is primarily with dogs, I feel like animals in general absolutely love me! There’s a special connection between us that is unexplainable. I’d love the opportunity to care for your pets, whether it’s dogs or cats, and give them the love and attention they’re accustomed to—and deserve! Please note: I am available for house/pet sitting within 30 miles of Citrus Heights. However, drop-in visits and dog walking are limited to 10 miles. I’m self-employed and fortunate to have a flexible schedule, which means I have plenty of time to give your pet the love and attention they deserve. I will make sure your pets are safe and comforted while you're away and do whatever I can to ease any anxiety they may have. We’ll play, relax, or simply hang out, whatever the moment calls for. My goal is to help them feel as comfortable as possible until you return.
“As usual, Christina came and went… and left our lives better! The pups adore her, we completely love and trust her. So communicative throughout the stay. All is right when she comes to stay and play!”
“Emily was great with both my old diabetic cat and our young puppy. They are both a handful! She took the puppy to the park and on walks while keeping up with the cat’s medications. She even vacuumed and cleaned up the guest room. Thank you Emily.”
About: I been taking of my aunts dog and my own dogs since I was 16 years old. I love to have fun with dogs too. Im free all day everyday for now until I get a job. I can mostly do Mornings, Afternoons, Nights. Or maybe I can do all day if you really need the help. I have a cage inside my house for my dogs if it gets way too hot and if it starts raining. I can put your dog in its cage if it’s needed.
“Allison was so great! I had to travel somewhat last minute and she was quick to respond to my request, easy to schedule a meet and greet with and great with communication. My dog was very well cared for the entire time I was gone and I could tell my pup felt at ease with her...which made me feel at ease! I had a few less than ideal experiences before which made me a little hesitant initially with trusting someone I didn't know while I was away but that hesitation disappeared as soon as I met Allison. She is trustworthy, reliable and took care of my dog like it was her own! I will definitely be using her again in the future and would recommend her to others as well.”
“Jessica is a wonderful dog sitter. I know my pup is well taken care of when she’s with her. plus Jessica is very respectful of my home and super helpful with things around the house. I appreciate her so much!!”
“Carla stayed with my dog and cat for a weekend while I was out of town. I was worried about leaving my girls for the first time, but Carla was fabulous! My girls were happy and well cared for, which made being away so much easier. I’d definitely book Carla again!!”
About: I’ve cared for and raised animals of all kinds since I can remember. I’ve cared for pets for friends and family, and groom my own for years. I have administered medication and cared for sick dogs, cats, lizards, sugar gliders, and mice. I can train dogs, and have trained my own dog to be a service animal. I currently am unavailable Sundays and Mondays due to work and volunteering. I am available most of the day for the remainder of the week. I am flexible, and can do ongoing pet sitting and walks, but am open to anything. Pet friendly home. We have 2 small dogs in the house, and a cat who mainly stays upstairs. I can offer one on one time, trips to the dog park, long walks, and lots of attention. Most dogs and cats I’ve had, I had their entire lives. I am very experienced with senior pets and dogs with special needs.
About: I’m a huge animal lover of both cats and dogs! I’ve had experience training puppies and also caring, walking, crate training, and maintaining a healthy feeding schedule. I’m open any day of the week at any times and I’m able to come house sit. Most animals are comfortable in their own home so whatever works best for them. I will ensure a safe environment for your pet whether that be crating your pet, keeping a close eye on your pet, and providing them play as a healthy distraction as you arrive.
About: Growing up around puppies, kittens, dogs, cats you name it, shaped me to be a good care taker. can’t wait to love your furry friends. My schedule is pretty booked weekdays, with being a full-time student and workin part time. my availability differs so please feel free to contact me and see if i’d be a good fit :) I want to care for them exactly how you would , hopefully same routine. I want them to feel as if nothing is missing from home.
“Yesenia was amazing with watching my Labrador retriever over the 4th of July holiday! When she came for a meet and greet, she asked questions which made me feel like she was making it a priority to take quality care of Coe. She followed directions, sent plenty of pictures, and made sure to check in multiple times daily. Getting updates made me feel better about being away from my pup. I would absolutely recommend Yesenia for all your pet needs!”
