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.

About: I’ve never known life without animals — I grew up surrounded by pets, and caring for them as part of the family has always come naturally. Over the years, I’ve become a trusted house and pet sitter for friends, neighbors, and family. I have experience with dogs of all ages, including senior dogs — from administering medication to going the extra mile to ensure they feel safe and comfortable. I’m committed to treating your pet like my own and your home with the utmost respect, always leaving things better than I found them. I currently have full flexibility in my schedule, which allows me to dedicate focused, personalized care tailored to each pet’s unique needs. Whether it’s daily visits, extended stays, or special requests, I make it a priority to be present and attentive. Caring for a pet is a responsibility I approach with the utmost respect and care, especially when entrusted to enter someone’s home. I understand that leaving your pet, even for a short time, can be stressful and full of worry. That’s why I make it a priority to follow all instructions carefully—feeding, medication, playtime, and quiet moments—while creating a calm, comfortable environment. To help ease your mind, I’ll regularly send photos and updates so you can see your pet happy and well cared for. My goal is for you to come home to a happy, content pet and a home just as you left it (or even better!).

About: I had the joy of caring for my rescued cat and dog for over 15 years, giving them a life full of love, comfort, and companionship until their final days. That experience shaped my deep understanding of what pets need at every stage of life—from playful energy to senior care. I’ve also helped care for friends’ dogs over the years, building trust with animals of all temperaments. Whether it’s a shy pup or a senior cat who needs extra gentleness, I’m committed to making them feel safe, seen, and loved. I offer a flexible schedule and can adjust my availability based on your pet’s needs. Whether it’s daily walks, weekend visits, or last-minute drop-ins, I’ll do my best to accommodate what works best for you and your pet. I understand how important consistency and reliability are for animals—and for their humans, too. I’m in your home I follow your instructions closely and maintain open communication so you can feel fully at ease while you’re away. I treat every pet as if they were my own, always prioritizing their comfort and wellbeing.

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.”


“Eskarlet did an amazing job taking care of our pups! This was our first time using a pet sitter and we won't go back to boarding if we have the choice! She was diligent in care for our dogs, sent photos and videos of their time together and even took care of bringing packages in for us. I highly recommend Eskarlet of pet/house sitting!”


“Alexis was absolutely amazing! She was so loving and caring for my 4 month old pup. Sent multiple updates, many videos and I could tell Sonny was taken care of. I was able to be at peace knowing he was taken care of and loved while I was gone. I highly recommend Alexis and will definitely be reaching out to her again!”


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.

About: I’ve cared for pets my whole life, everything from playful puppies to senior dogs needing a gentle touch. I’m patient, calm, and highly attentive to each pet’s unique personality and routine. But what sets me apart from others is the genuine bond I build with animals. I don’t just watch pets but more importantly, I engage with them, making sure they feel safe, loved, and entertained. I’ve cared for a wide range of pets, including Labrador Retrievers, Pit Bulls, Yorkshire Terriers, and just about every kind of cat from independent seniors to bottle fed kittens. I am also comfortable with pets that need a little extra care. I’ve administered liquid medication to cats and have experience with feeding schedules, playtime routines, and comforting anxious animals. Whether your pet is energetic or laid back, I adapt to their needs and make sure they feel safe, loved, and at home while you’re away. If there’s something you need that I haven’t done before, I’m more than happy to learn. My goal is to give you peace of mind while you’re away, knowing your pet is in good hands I am currently in my second year of college at sac state university. My schedule varies each semester but I always keep a M/W/F schedule. As of this current semester it is only M/W, id be gone during the hours of 6:15am-11:15am. Before or after those times I am free and any other day of the week or weekend I am free unless posted otherwise! While I can’t provide care in my own home due to having pets of my own, I’m more than happy to care for your pets in the comfort of their home. I understand that every animal has their own routine and personality, so I always follow your instructions closely to keep things familiar and stress-free. Whether it’s feeding schedules, playtime preferences, or special needs, I’m here to make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away.

About: I have a 17 year old senior dog as well as 1 year old puppy. I can handle all different personalities from grumpy old pup to super hyper puppy. Im available Sunday-Thursday occasionally I work at my job on tusday though. You can message me if you are worried about tusday otherwise I am pretty available for work. Like I have mentioned I have both a senior dog and cat. As well as young cat and dog. For the senior animals they typically need extra attention and things to help them with age. Where the younger you need patience with training and them learning ect. I did train my puppy though I am not a trainer I know a little.

About: Hi! I have a lot of experience with animals and had a variety when I was younger. Cats, dogs, rats, chicks and ducks. I currently work more with dogs and cats, big or small. Im working part time at the moments and get around 15 hours per week, so I have plenty time for pet care. House sitting, walks, or day drop ins! I have three extremely friendly cats to keep them company if im taking care of your fur baby in my home, extremely social, but understand if another animal doesn't wanna play with them. If its in your home Ill respect the animals boundaries and attitude, I would be a stranger to them after all.

About: I grew up on a farm which gave me experience with caring for many different animals, both big and small! I've always had dogs growing up, from small, calm lap dogs to big, hyper barn dogs! If your pet needs special care I am always willing to discuss it with you. I have trained puppies and given medical treatments to both cats and dogs. I'm currently a full-time freelance artist so my schedule is extremely flexible. I am able to do frequent house visits and dog walks. If your baby needs extra time or attention, I am happy to oblige! We currently have two cats in the home that are 100% indoors. They are fed twice a day, litterboxes scooped once a day and completely changed out once a week. We previously had a senior dog that I cared for, administering medications and kept up with gentle grooming.

About: I recently moved to Vacaville, away from my 3 labs (my pride and joy). Aside from taking care of my own dogs, I’ve been dogsitting since I can remember. I’m comfortable with applying ointments/administering medication, and have experience with dogs of all ages. In my spare time, I volunteer weekly at Animal Refugee Response, a no-kill, non-profit shelter for cats and dogs. I’m currently volunteering weekly as the fall semester approaches. My classes will be online this upcoming semester, so my schedule is flexible! Overnights are easier if you’re located a bit farther away. I appreciate any special instructions you may have in terms of routine, training (any commands you use), etc. My goal is to keep your baby as comfortable and at ease as possible until their favorite person returns. My service includes complementary never-ending pets and scratches.

About: I have experience with assisting my brother taking care of litters from birth to now. I also have cared for multiple senior dogs who need to take medication, special diet and unable to walk. Within my 5 years of experience people have recommended me to friends and families and associates. I have been recommended to bathe, feed, play and love. Every animal that I care for I treat as if they were my own. I currently work part time so I have enough free time to spend time caring for your animals. I can also do overnights including weekends because I only work 5 hours in the morning Monday through Friday. I make sure that my clients homes are secured by going outside with them and making sure fences are closed keeping a close eye on them at all time and including inside as well. I have experience with dogs that are deemed vicious and so I’ve had to take special precautions for the safety of the animals.

We have 2 cats currently that whenever we travel they come over and are able to spend time with them from feeding and cleaning the litter boxes, giving them medications and affection. We had a elder dog that, while he was able to, they took him for walks, bathed him and played with him. As he got older they were able to sit with him and give him his medications. Victoria has an excellent connection with animals and cares for them like they are their own. They are respectful, kind and wonderful to have watching our pets.”


Maya D.
“Maya is absolutely amazing! We’ve trusted her to care for our dogs while we’re on vacation, and she’s been nothing short of incredible every time. Our pups absolutely love her—tails start wagging the moment she walks through the door! She’s reliable, trustworthy, and incredibly responsible. We always feel at ease knowing our dogs are in such good hands. Maya goes above and beyond to keep them happy, comfortable, and safe. We couldn’t ask for a better sitter and feel so lucky to have found her on Rover. Highly recommend!”
