“Brandie did and amazing job of watching our four big dogs. The had some special medical needs that she accomadated and we got photos plus great communication. We will definitely be using her again.”

“Cheyenne was great! She was really on top of communicating and sent many cute pictures of Bambi while we were away to reassure us that Bambi was being well taken care of. She really went above and beyond. I would definitely book her again!”

“I couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! Maddison was incredibly responsive and respectful of my home. She took such great care of my dog, and I could tell my pup was happy and well looked after. On top of that, she was super kind. Highly recommend!”

“Delmar is a lovely person and pet sitter! She went above and beyond to make sure my menagerie was taken care of and sent lots of updates. She also took her own notes about my home and the the pets’ schedules.”

“Mariah is an awesome house and pet sitter. She took such great care of our dog, cat and bearded dragon while we were away. Will definitely use her again and can’t thank her enough for taking such good care of everything.”
“Julia did a phenomenal job house sitting and watching our cattle dog mix Phoebe for 4 days. She was very professional, attentive, checked in with us and sent pictures, and left us a tidy home and happy healthy pup to come home to. Would certainly recommend her to anyone needing a sitter.”

“Brooklyn was amazing with my dogs during a 5 night vacation. She took lots of pictures. Kept in contact, and went above and beyond by doing things I hadn’t asked or thought up such as washing bedding for my return and taking out garage for pickup and collecting mail. I cannot recommend her enough and will absolutely book again.”

“Diana is so kind and generous! We have two animals and she came over twice to make sure she understood how to take care of them. Each time, she was a complete delight and also she kept me updated with updates on how my fur babies were doing. I couldn’t recommend her enough. She will be our go-to sitter from now on”


About: I grew up with dogs, I'm 22, my last boy recently passed last year in the summer. Ever since I couldnt bring myself to get a new dog, not after him. But I do have a bunny that I rescued from a bunny shelter in the bay! I've showered, groomed, walked, etc dogs in the past. With my last boy, he had cancer so I guess you can say I have a bit of experience with following a oral medication administration schedule. I also did have a senior dog prior to him, that's all an experience. I had him when he was a pup so I did raise my boy and I think I did a pretty good job at it too. I currently work 3, irregular 12 hours shifts, the days are different every week. My school schedule is a bit more set. With that being said If I'm not working my 12 hr I'm available after 12 noon any day besides Saturday, currently. I do live with roommates in a spacious house with a yard. I don't think id be able to take in any doggies for boarding for long periods of time, maybe for the day but even then those are slim chances. For the times that I can, your pup will be surrounded with fun animals lovers that love to spoil and play with anything fluffy. We do have a cat and a bunny in the house but they are easy to keep away or be put in a different room of the house. I, personally, love a good walk on a trial and a good trip to the dog park. I'm all up for water activities, I don't mind washing your pup. Even a good stoll through the neighborhood and ending it with a movie and lots of cuddles. Indoor or outdoor, I can work with just about any activities or tasks.

About: I have taken care of all kinds of dogs since I was ten years old. I have experience walking, assisting in training, and entertaining super high energy dogs! I currently work online and take online classes and so I have a very flexible schedule and I can adjust to what your pup needs! I understand your pet is your fur baby! I look forward to adjusting to whatever your needs are and making sure your pet has a fun, safe time!
“Kate took fantastic care of our pets. She had great communication and kept us updated on any issues while we were away. She met all their needs and then some. Would 100% book again.”

“Johnna house-sat for us while we were away at a memorial service in Los Angeles, and she took care of both our cat and dog, and our house. She was fabulous. She went above and beyond, as usual. It is lovely to have someone so trustworthy take care of our home while we are away. I cannot recommend her highly enough.”


About: I’ve never not had pets. My family has almost always had dogs, and I took care of a hamster and cat when I was younger. Today, my wife and I have two poodle-mix dogs (Togepi and Raisin) and two guinea pigs (Betty and Gertie). We got Togepi when he was just a couple months old. We got Raisin from a shelter in 2024. I’ve helped my wife with her Rover sitting since since 2023—she’s a 5-star sitter. I just graduated from law school and am studying for the California bar exam this summer. I’m available on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays. My wife plans to do Mondays-Thursdays if you need someone earlier in the week. I’m happy to care for your pet(s) however you’d like. If you want me to stay in your home while you’re away, I can do so on most Friday, Saturday, and Sunday nights.
“Oh, where do I even begin? Raina sitter showered Benji with so much love and attention! They made sure to follow all of Benji's special needs. They even took the time to learn about his quirks and preferences to make him feel comfortable. It was clear that they genuinely cared for Benji like their own furry family member. They truly went above and beyond to ensure his happiness and well-being. Benji couldn't have asked for a better caregiver! ?❤️?”

“Jourdan took great care of my pups, they were happy and so well taken care of! Also the house was spotless when we got back from our trip. Will def use again and would absolutely recommend!”

About: Ever since childhood, I have always been surrounded by pets, from big animals, to cats and dogs. I can do everything from walks in the park to giving them baths. proper pet care is something important for your pets well being Currently I am enrolled in college at Sacramento State, my summer classes are online so there is time to check on your animals between my classes. How I care for my dog Is that she gets feed once in the morning and once at night. when I have time before class, excluding Monday and Wednesday this semester, I take my pup on at least a 20 min walk. She spends most her time outside, but sleeps inside at night.
“As always, the peace of mind knowing that Jahaila is watching our fur babies when we are out of town is amazing. She sends lots of pics, which help us feel less anxious while away. The house is always neat and tidy as well. :)”

“Angela did a great job house sitting and taking care of my special needs dog (blind and diabetic). She administered daily insulin shots and eye drops and cleaned up after him and my two cats while I was on vacation. I would highly recommend Angela for anyone needing a dog/house sitting.”

Natalie is a gem. We came home to happy cats! She did a wonderful job of taking care of our 2 cats, kept us informed daily and sent pictures. She even took care of the neighborhood outside cat that comes by when hungry. I would not hesitate to book Natalie again.

I was so nervous to leave our senior dog, but as soon as I met Brandie I knew he would be in the best care! She was so caring, attentive, and communicative! Even when he got sick in the middle of the night, she woke up to care for him and even cleaned the carpets where he had made a mess. She’s truly the best!! I couldn’t have found a better sitter for my babes! I might even schedule another trip just to have her back! Thank you again Brandie!!

Rebecca was very quick to respond if I had any questions. Our dog is almost 15 and needs help and Rebecca did a wonderful job. She sent pics and was very flexible. She left our place just as she found it and cut some beautiful flowers from our garden and left bouquet.

Mariah was great. My cat went up to her right away during the meet and greet. It was great to have someone who also has cats and knows how to interact with them. She sent pictures during her stay. I also feed feral cats and she was willing to help put food out for them as well. House was clean when we got back and she washed all of my many containers of food which was a nice surprise. I appreciate her attention to details. I would definitely recommend.

Johnna was an absolute godsend. She took care of our senior dog in the most loving positive way while we attended a wedding. She kept us updated with pictures and texts. We would highly recommend Johnna and wished we lived in the area so we could have her watch our dog again. So grateful. Thank you.

Jourdan was wonderful to work with and our dogs enjoyed their time with her. She followed the care instructions we left, communication was good, our house was tidy when we returned home and our dogs enjoyed 1:1 time with her. We recommend her for dog sitting/house sitting and look forward to working with her again.
