About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life. Growing up on a farm gave me an early, deep appreciation for animal care, and I’ve spent the last 40 years personally raising everything from dogs and cats to birds, rodents, and reptiles. Having cared for pets of all shapes, sizes, and temperaments, I understand that every animal has its own unique personality and routine. Today, my home is kept lively by my own two dogs and two cats, so I am completely in tune with the daily rhythms, patience, and love it takes to keep multiple pets happy and thriving. I am currently between jobs. I recently left a long-time career in project management and am looking forward to doing something more rewarding. I am currently not bound to a rigid 9-to-5 office routine. This means I have ample availability for midday walks, flexible drop-in windows, and extended quality time to sit and keep your pets company so they never feel lonely. Your pets and your home are in totally safe, reliable hands with me! As a long-time dog and cat owner, I’m great at reading animal body language and making sure walks and playtime stay fun and stress-free. I'm naturally super detail-oriented, so I'll strictly stick to your feeding schedules, medication routines, and any house rules you have. You can count on me to keep your home secure, keep your pets happy, and send you plenty of fun photo updates along the way so you never have to worry.
“Michelle is an absolute godsend. My dogs are big, young, loving, and energetic. Basically, they are a lot. Michelle is beyond patient and compassionate with them. we are blessed to have her.”
“Barbara was amazing while we were gone for a long weekend. She updated us with pictures of all four of our cats at visits and she was always easy to talk to - kind & warm! She also made sure our senior cat got his transdermal meds every night, which was a big concern of ours!! Thank you for also cleaning up kitty messes during visits Barbara! (Especially the 'exploded' catnip banana! 😱) We felt so at ease knowing she was taking care of our kitto's; we would absolutely book again!”
About: I grew up on a ranch with all kinds of animals, so I’ve taken care of every size from quail to horses. I started watching other people’s animals when I was 13, from feeding friends 4H projects to staying at a house with someone’s dog. I’m currently working part time and am about to end my senior year at Sacramento State. I typically have evenings free and a couple hours in the morning depending on my schedule for the week. I’m very flexible and willing to work around or with anything! My work schedule does come out weekly so I cannot guarantee that I will be available at the same time every week and my shifts vary in length. I don’t offer care in my own home currently as I live in an apartment. But I’m more than willing to watch them in your home to help them stay in their routine!
“Rachel did a great job checking in on my new shelter dog adoption. My dog recently was spayed and in her cone and required some extra care. Rachel did a great job of letting Rio out of her crate and gave her some free cone time. In addition to this, Rachel is always on time and gives a great report of how things went. She is prompt, professional, and I have really appreciated her help with our new fur baby. Thank you, Rachel!”
“Joanna did great and watched over my pups exactly as expected. She went above and beyond w/ the walks and even gave my girl insulin like a pro. I would highly recommend her for dogs needing consistency w/ your handling perferences. She followed mine to the tee! She will be our first choice for the next time.”
About: As a dedicated pet owner and animal lover, I have experience caring for both dogs and cats of all ages, from energetic puppies and kittens to senior pets who need extra patience and attention. My household includes two small dogs and a friendly cat, giving me hands-on experience with a variety of personalities, routines, and care needs. I am comfortable administering medications, following special feeding instructions, supporting pets with sensitive diets, and reinforcing established routines. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, enrichment activities, or simply companionship, my goal is to provide attentive, reliable care that helps them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I offer boarding, drop-in visits, and dog walking services for both dogs and cats. For boarding, I welcome small and medium-sized dogs to ensure a comfortable and safe environment for all pets in my home. Because I work from home, boarding pets receive frequent supervision, companionship, and attention throughout the day and are rarely left alone. We also live near a park, providing a great setting for walks, exercise, and outdoor enrichment. During drop-in visits, I can provide feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, litter box cleaning, medication administration, exercise, playtime, and plenty of affection. My cat is exceptionally friendly and social, and my two dogs are accustomed to living peacefully with cats and respecting their space. I carefully supervise introductions and always prioritize the comfort and safety of every pet in my care. To provide the highest level of personalized attention, I accept only one client household at a time across all services. Whether your pet is staying in my home or receiving visits in yours, they will receive individualized care, close supervision, and plenty of one-on-one attention. I am available for up to two drop-in visits per day, and pet parents can expect regular updates and photos for added peace of mind. As a pet owner myself, I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pets in someone else’s care. Every pet is treated like family, and my goal is to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Because I work from home full time, caring for pets naturally fits into my day and is something I genuinely look forward to. I love starting the morning with a walk, taking midday breaks to check in and play, and ending the evening with a visit or stroll. Having this flexibility means I can give pets the attention and consistency they deserve while making sure they feel happy and loved throughout the day. During drop-in visits, I make sure pets feel safe and comfortable in their own home by following their normal routines and keeping their environment clean and secure. I always check that doors and gates are locked, refresh food and water, scoop litter or let pups out as needed, and spend quality time giving attention, play, or cuddles based on what each pet enjoys most. I also provide updates and photos so owners can feel at ease knowing their pets are happy and cared for while they’re away.
About: Growing up, I’ve always had a furry friend by my side—everything from dogs and cats to rabbits and even mice! Animals have always held a special place in my heart. Now, with two amazing cats of my own that I absolutely adore, I’ve learned that my love for animals extends far beyond home. I love giving care, attention, and plenty of pets to every animal I meet. I am currently working a part time job. My availability varies from week to week, but the times I do have off I'd love to walk your dog (or cat) to get some extra vitamin D in! I cannot house any animals at my house due to lack of space, however I am experienced at commuting to previous customers house's to walk their furry companions! I can make your fur baby a meal, give them some water, clean up any messes they leave behind, crate (if already a part of daily routine), and go on fun nature walks for some fresh air!
“Lauren took wonderful care of my 3 1/2 month old GSD puppy that can be a handful (typical puppy). She followed my training requests, sent photos, handled her with patience, and left everything in my home as it was. Thank you, Lauren!!”
About: I've grown up with dogs since I was five years old. When I was a teenager, I would foster kittens till they were old enough for new homes. I would also volunteer in high school at an emergency vet clinic. I've also cat sat for my neighbors for a generous number of times. I still have my first dog from when I was five so hopefully that's a good sign :) I'm available throughout the week depending on my schedule from my primary job. Most of the time I'll for sure be able to pet sit after 3pm. On weekends I'm fully available. I will take your dog(s) on various walks throughout the day if needed. If you have a cat(s) I will routinely clean the litter box and play with them if they like with a toy. For any animal I will water is out for the thirsty pets. And I will feed based on your request.
About: I’ve been a proud pet parent and sitter for over 20 years, and I know how important it is to have someone you can trust with your furry family. I’ve cared for dogs of all breeds and sizes, cats with every personality, and even senior pets who need a little extra love. I treat every pet like my own; whether that means long walks, playtime, cuddles, or keeping routines just right. I’m reliable, attentive, and always happy to send photo updates so you know your pets are safe and happy while you’re away. For me, pet sitting isn’t just a job, it’s what I love. 🐾 I have a very flexible schedule! I am pretty much always home, playing with my cat or tending my garden. I go to school online so that can be done from any location with wifi. I have plenty of free time to make sure your fury friends needs are met! I love and appreciate a detailed list of your pets wants and needs so as their routine isn’t disturbed in your absence. My calm yet assertive style coupled with my fun and energetic personality help me to ensure every pet I encounter is not only safe but trusts me enough to let their guard down and play!
“Amanda was professional and punctual. My husband and I were in a pinch to find pet care and she was happy to commit even with such short notice. She was respectful of our home and left everything in great shape. There’s nothing better than having peace of mind knowing your fur babies will be well taken care of while out of town. We highly recommend Amanda for all of your pet sitting needs. ☺️”

Barbara took amazing care of my pets while I was on vacation and went above and beyond to make sure they were comfortable and well cared for. She was kind, timely, communicative, and even administered medication to my dog with great care and attention. I felt completely at ease knowing my pets were in such good hands. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate sitter.
Joanna was perfect from start to finish, from such a warm greeting to being attentive to our cats schedule, and giving us updates while we were away. She kept everything tidy and made sure our girls were happy, it made it so we could enjoy ourselves knowing they were in good hands. We’ll be booking her again if we ever need a pet sitter!
We loved having Isabella watch our 2 cats while we were away!!! Her communication is great, she also came in in advance to us leaving to meet the cats and to see how to run their automatic litter boxes etc which gave me a lot of peace of mind. Am definitely booking her again! :)
Samantha was absolutely amazing 💖. This was both of our first time using Rover. She was so attentive to my pets and made me feel so comfortable going on vacation. I truly felt as if she treated my fur babies like her own. She also sent me pictures regularly which made me smile every time and at ease knowing they were being well taken care of. She even bought more food for them since my animals ate more than expected. I will definitely be using her again in the future. Best decision I made for the care of my pets 💖🐕🐈⬛💖
