House Sitting in El Rio Villa

“Could not have had a better experience. Lots of communication. Great picture and video updates. The dogs were very happy and the house was perfect when we returned. Third experience booking through Rover, Best so far! Already rebooked.”

About: Same day bookings only for repeat clients. Service area: Vallejo, Benicia, Suisun, Fairfield, Vacaville, Winters, Dixon, Davis, with priority given to Sacramento Metropolitan Area! Experienced not just with walking, feeding, & cleaning after pets, but also with being fully present with the animal(s) during my visit, that is, truly being there for them. I can prioritize pet care until August the 20th of 2025, which is when I start attending university. After this day, my availability will be updated as appropriate. I have been told by others that I am an "animal whisperer" .. I think I'm just someone who enjoys the company of animals, & often find animals enjoy the company of me.

“Absolutly fantastic. Shay took care of everything for us and then some even thought it was last minute. I plan to use her services again soon.”

Christopher T.

“Cathy stayed in our house for a weekend to care for our mostly outdoor cat. She was gracious and flexible (the cat is not so flexible!) and sent us photos and updates throughout the weekend. She left our house in perfect condition, connected well with our shy cat, and was a great communicator. We’ll definitely use her again!”

About: Hi! I’m Samantha! I’m an experienced pet sitter and dog walker with a deep love for animals. I’ve cared for pets of all kinds and volunteered at the Berkeley Animal Care Shelter, where I worked with dogs and cats of all temperaments. I’m reliable, attentive, and always make sure pets feel safe, loved, and happy while you’re away. I’d love to care for your furry friend like they’re my own! I currently orioritize pet sitting as my main job since I do not work outside of that! This means your pet(s) will be at the center of my attention throughout their care! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I take the responsibility of caring for your pet and home seriously, always following your instructions closely and keeping routines consistent. I understand how important trust is when leaving your pet with someone new, and I’m committed to providing dependable, compassionate care you can feel confident about.

“This was our first time ever having someone outside of our family watch our dogs, so we were a little nervous—but Diyanna was amazing! She kept us updated several times a day, had great communication, and was so sweet. Our dogs absolutely loved her! We couldn’t be happier with the experience and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter.”

Daniel R.

“Great person to watch your doggo. Our guy is very needy and she handled him great. She also kept me and my wife updated throughout the day.”

Raymond V.

“Valorie was great! She communicated with me well, sent pictures, and was honest. My pups seem led to have a good time :) Sh is so nice and genuine and took such great care of the house too.”

Annette N.

“Devi was great. We’ve already booked with her again! Devi was very responsive when booking. We were impressed by how professional she was when she came over for a meet-and-greet. Most importantly, she handled our easily overexcited, enormous dog perfectly—she was calm, let him set the pace, and he quickly relaxed with her. Devi sent updates and pics, so we were able to enjoy our weekend without worries.”

About: I have taken care of animals all of my life! I am a proud owner of two guinea pigs and have 3 dogs back at home. I also have experience with cats. I am an Animal Science major at UC Davis, so I am very passionate about all kinds of animals! I am a student at UC Davis taking one Summer class this summer so my schedule is flexible. I am available every single weekday as well as weekends. You can count on me to take the best care of your fur babies and treat them like they were my own. I am very communicative, good with directions, and responsible. If needed, my house has a fenced backyard that is great for playtime needs!

“Alexis was great! She and my cat bonded so quickly during their first housesitting together and sent so many cute photos and videos that kept my mind at ease while away. I came back to a happy cat and home. Will definitely be booking again!”

“Rachel was great! We have a Saint Bernard and 2 cats and they loved her. She sent us photos while we on vacation and gave us regular updates. This was the first time we have left our pets with anyone, and Rachel was very respectful of our pets and our space. We were very apprehensive about hiring a random person to care for our pets, but the second we met Rachel we were put at ease. Rachel asked us questions about the care of our pets that we hadn't thought about, which gave us the confidence that she knows what she doing. She is amazing and we will definitely rebook with her.”

About: I rescued my dog, Skoshi, from a shelter in Okinawa, Japan. We spent 16 delightful years together romping across the U.S. I have extensive experience with dogs, including: walking, playing, feeding, elderly dog care, administering medication and bring joy and love into dog's lives. I am currently a full time dog walker/sitter. I have plenty of time to walk, play and care for your dog/pet. I'm available for walks (30-60 minutes), play dates and pet/house sitting. I'm generally available between 8:00 AM - 6:00 PM and overnight stays when sitting. When your pet(s) are with me, they have my full attention. My first priority is the safety and well being of your pet. Once established, I like to concentrate on exercise: walking, running, and playing. Any instructions given (crating, medication, meals, etc.) will be followed exactly. I'm excited to reinforce any training (sit, lay, stay, heal, etc.) as part of a walk or play session using (approved) treats and positive reinforcement.

“Tiali did a wonderful job looking after our dog and home while we were gone. She was so thoughtful in her attention to detail, and checked in with us multiple times over the weekend to let us know how things were going - our pup was very happy with her. She was terrific! We’d book her again in the future!”

Carli S.

“Cat is an AMAZING pet sitter. When you first meet her you know right away that she will take good care of your pet. I loved her attitude and attention to detail. She is very warm and friendly and our pup knew that too. When we got back home from our trips we returned to a happy and relaxed pup - he will be 15 this year!!!”

Ginelle G.

“Sarah was a wonderful cat sitter for my 10 month old kitten Boots. She looked after him for 2 days and went above and beyond to make sure he was happy and comfortable. She understood the nature of kittens and introduced herself in a way that Boots, who is usually shy, warmed up very quickly to her. She updated me with pictures, videos, and messages of Boots and the games she created for him. Thank you again for the care you gave to my kitten.”

About: Hello i’m Ashley! I have had over 20 years of experience caring for children from newborn to teen, dogs, cats, reptiles, rabbits, chickens, goats, horses and other types of pets and farm animals. I’d love to provide the same care you would for your child or pet while you’re away or working. I would be able to do drop in visits to feed and play with your pets one to two times a day. I can accommodate any type of dog and have experience with all types of breeds. My work schedule is flexible so i am available during the day time for your pet sitting needs. I am in the natomas area and willing to travel in the sacramento, davis, and woodland area. Contact me for great care!

About: I've cared for many pets since I was 8 yrs old. I earn pets trust easily & will care for them like they are my own. I've done multiple overnights with pets & the owners keep asking for me back. I have a dog of my own for 9 years, which I had potty trained him in a month, and he is versed in multiple commands. I have worked with puppies to senior dogs and the same for kittens to senior cats. I have also taken care of multiple pets with special needs and/or requirements that were met really well according to their owners. Lastly, I love photography and am pretty decent with capturing photos of pets. I have a pretty open schedule. I can make multiple trips over or stay over depending on the needs required. I understand the need for constant potty breaks throughout the day and have much experience with walking a dog. I will care for your pet like it is my own with love, intentially, compassion, and trust. I will make individual time for each pet providing love, care, and affection based on the level the client and pet are comfortable with. I would like to set up a meeting with the owner/s and pet/s in person to get a better idea of what is being asked of me and get to know everyone involved especially your pet/s first before I can agree to care and services. This gives me a better idea if your dog has any special needs or behaviors that I can account for and provide extra attention to. Also if there is specific routines you have in place for your pet/s that I can try to learn and follow to provide the best experience for your pet/pets, while giving the owner/s peace of mind while they are gone. I am a hard-worker and detail-oriented. I strive to complete every task required of me and am respectful of other's space, home, and belongs. My general practice is to try to keep a place neat and tidy, by clean up after myself, and after a pet/s, such as picking up dog poop and will also consider cleaning up puke.
