About: I am a lover of animals and have had dogs for most of my life, unfortunately losing my sweet boy just a short while ago. I have been petsitting and housesitting for many years and ready to expand my network. Whether I stay in your home, your pet stays in my home, or I am just popping in for a visit, your pet will be very loved. Their comfort and happiness are my first priority. I am a remote worker, which allows for flexibility in a day-to-day routine. I am able to breakaway for potty breaks/walks/pets/feedings/training/etc. I will schedule any social activities around your pet's needs. In my home, your pet can have the run of the house, it all depends on your preferences as an owner. My home is pet friendly and will follow any guidelines provided. In your home, I follow your pet's normal routine, as closely as possibe. I ensure I leave your home in the same or better condition than when I arrived.

About: Im a full time student that loves to take care of my friends and families fur babies in between classes and on my days off! I am currently a full time student so I am always available either before or after my classes and I am also usually available on weekends as well! Ive grown up with pet dogs my entire life and I have lots of experience walking and taking care of friends and families dogs! I have a flexible schedule and lots of energy to play, walk, and give your pets the love and attention they deserve.

About: We are a couple who love animals and take great pleasure in caring for them. We work from home on alternating days, so between the two of us, we'll always be available to put your minds at ease. We've had dogs and cats growing up (prior breeds include siamese cats, cockapoo, standard poodles, and a daschund), and are currently the lucky parents of a very energetic senior French Bulldog, Jackson. Jackson has had numerous health issues, which have given us experience caring for dogs requiring special attention including: crate training, medication administration, following strict schedules, setting exercise and play restrictions, carrying or limiting vertical movement (stairs or jumping), and even administrating injections. For any special instructions or care, be sure to message us in advance so we can be sure to accommodate. As pet owners who travel frequently, we understand the importance of finding consistent, responsible, and flexible caretakers for your pet. We hope to become your trusted go-to whether you are seeking occasional or routine care. Feel free to contact us if you have any questions! We look forward to meeting you and your fur baby! Brian has a flexible schedule and can be available starting at 6:30AM most weekdays to drop in or walk your dog. Annuschka has a hybrid work schedule and is available most Mondays, Tuesdays, and Fridays. We are both available on weekends and even may pair up to give your pets some extra attention. Our default approach is to maintain a calm demeanor when first meeting your pet and will wait for them to settle down before we first greet them. This helps to set the tone and improves the trust between pet and human. Please let us know what your preference is. If you like your dog taking the lead on walks, we are happy to accommodate that. Please also let us know if they have any quirks, other behavioral tendencies, or are aggressive.

About: Animals have been part of my life since childhood—I've cared for both dogs, cats, and everything in between, learning to understand their unique personalities and needs. I have experience administering medications, including pills and even insulin shots for a diabetic cat. For the past five years, I’ve volunteered with the North Valley Animal Disaster Group, helping evacuate and care for animals during emergencies. That work taught me how to stay calm under pressure and provide comfort to pets in stressful situations. Whether your pet needs playful attention or gentle medical care, I’m here to make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. I work from home on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Fridays, which means I’m available during the day to give your pet plenty of attention—whether that’s walks, playtime, feedings, or just keeping them company. On Wednesdays and Thursdays, I work in the office but still offer evening, and overnight care as needed. I am available most weekends unless I am out of town or have an event planned ahead of time. I’m committed to keeping your pets safe, loved, and comfortable every day, and I’m happy to accommodate your pet’s routine as closely as possible. When caring for your pets in your home, I will follow their usual routine as closely as possible—from feeding and walking schedules to their favorite spots to nap or play. I give lots of affection and attention, and I always keep their space tidy, respecting the home and making sure their comfort comes first. If they need medications or special care, I’m confident and gentle, making sure they feel safe every step of the way. I also send regular updates with photos, so you can relax knowing your furry friend is happy and well cared for.

About: I've had dogs and cats my entire life. Growing up on a farm in Oregon my family bred, and I showed, Newfoundlands so my experience with pets is pretty vast. I'm newly retired from my job as a magazine publisher, I have a super flexible schedule. I love animals and have often needed pet sitters so I know it can be a challenge to find someone trustworthy. Since I coached (Track) for 30+ years I've been background checked, fingerprinted and bonded by several institutions including USATF and the Folsom-Cordova School District. I am First Aid and Safe Sport compliant. I prefer to watch pets at a client's Folsom (or nearby) home as I have two dogs of my own to care for. If a dog is great with other dogs, they may be welcome to come to my house; I have a fully fenced backyard and would be present 100% of the time.

About: I have experience caring for both energetic puppies and senior dogs, with skills in crate and potty training, administering medications, and supporting sensitive diets. I understand the unique needs at every stage of a dog’s life—whether it’s providing structure and playtime for puppies or offering gentle walks and comfort for older dogs. My focus is always on consistency, safety, and plenty of love so every pup feels like family while their owners have complete peace of mind. 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: I have been caring for pets since I was a child. I’ve had dogs, cats, birds, rabbits, guinea pigs, and hamsters. I’ve also been involved in wildlife rehab rehabilitation. I am also a disaster service worker doing animal rescue during fires. I’ve always had pets in my home but recently lost my cat this year and my dog last year. I’m taking a break from having pets right now as the loss is still too new. Taking care of other people’s pets gives me a chance to have my animal fix :) I am currently retired so I have a lot of time on my hands. I love all types of animals and would love to fill my days with meeting new ones. I have a fully fenced yard, Dog doors. I’m a retired state employee with 30+ years of of work experience. I’m very reliable and trustworthy.

About: Hi there! I’ve been taking care of my family dog for over 10 years and my cat who has been part of the crew for the past 5 years. I’ve also had some experience with fish and even snakes in my household, so I’m comfortable with pets of all kinds. As an avid runner, I love staying active and enjoy keeping pace with dogs of all sizes, whether it’s a relaxed walk or an energetic run. I have a flexible, hybrid work schedule, which makes it easy for me to fit in pet-sitting and adjust to you and your pet’s needs. I’ll treat your pet and your home with the same care and respect I would my own. I’m great at following instructions and will always keep you updated during my visits so you can have a peace of mind.

About: 10+ years of experience caring for animals. I've assisted in the birth and taken care of two litters of puppies, cared for elderly dogs (administering medications and shots) and have experience dog training. I've had cats since I was 18 and have owned dogs for almost ten years. I lived on a farm for five years and gained a lot of experience working with animals. I work from home so I will be around all day to care for your pet! We'll go for at least two walks. I live right on the willow creek bike path- it makes for a very pretty neighborhood walk! I have a second floor apartment with a fenced deck that overlooks wild oaks and a gurgling stream. There is a magnetic screen door so the animals can come and go from the outside deck as they please.

About: I grew up with dogs, cats, birds and fish…all have a unique way in which they need to be cared for but still plenty in common … like the time, affection and genuine interest required to truly love them and allow them to thrive. I had used this app for many years and was able to meet a few Rovers that took excellent care of my aging orange tabby…I’m here because after 18 years with the coolest cat ever, I’m not ready for another pet but would love to help take care of yours. Whether it’s just taking your pup for a stroll or giving some much-needed scratchies to your feline while you’re out of town, I have experience in many things required to take care of your pets at all stages of life. I work from home a few days each week but can discuss flexibility should any conflict arise with your pets needs or care instructions each day. I would care for your pet as if it was my own. Meaning the attention, affection and concern for their needs would be just as important as if I was caring for my own.

About: I’ve taken care of fur babies since I was a little girl. Neighbors & friends have always relied on me for a last minute dog sitter/walker. No matter the breed or size I adapt quickly! I update my schedule weekly through the app. If you have any questions or requests, shoot me a message. I would absolutely love to connect and figure out a plan for you & your fur baby! I will make sure your babies are as comfortable as possible at all times. As well as, follow their daily routine. Whether that includes walks, baths, play time, and breakfast/lunch/dinner. I am open to any special request you might have while I am watching them.

“Thank you so much Michelle for walking our two pups! They were so happy each day and we loved to see the pictures and read your descriptions of the day. We’ll definitely rebook in the future!”

“Ananda is an amazing pet sitter. She watched my dog, Asher-an energetic little guy, and he loved her, we both did! She walked him a lot and kept him great company, something that I really value in a dog sitter as I don’t want my little buddy getting lonely while I’m away.
