About: I've grown up living with all size dogs and have pet sit around my neighborhood since I was little. I also volunteered at a horse rescue facility in El Dorado Hills for two years and help out at Blue Ravine Pet Hospital in Folsom. I am potentially starting a part-time job but until I officially start working I am available all week and if I am still busy i do try to make my schedules as flexible as I can majority of the time. I am always willing to put in time to take care of dogs throughout my schedule even if my days are busy. I will not be providing home services in my home but when I take dogs for walks, I can take them to parks, around neighborhoods, or bike trails to take them for long walks or short walks depending on how long the dog needs a walk. Pet care is now part of my everyday routine. I schedule walks throughout the day depending on my clients’ needs, and I make sure each dog gets attention, exercise, and care. I also plan my mornings and evenings around feeding or drop-in visits, so it keeps me active and organized during the week When I care for pets in a client’s home, I keep their routine as close to normal as possible — feeding them at their usual times, refreshing water, taking them for walks or bathroom breaks, and giving them playtime or cuddles for attention. I also make sure the home stays clean and secure by checking doors, cleaning up any messes, and following all owner instructions. Communication is a big part of my service — I always send updates and photos so owners feel at ease while they’re away
About: Hi, I’m Ly! I’m a pet lover with experience caring for dogs of all ages, and I know how much they mean to their families. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, giving meds, and keeping up with both high-energy pups and older dogs who just want to relax. I treat every pet like they’re part of my family. I know how important it is to feel at ease while you’re away, so I always make sure pets get plenty of love, attention, and care I currently work from home part time so I have a lot of time on my hands to play and care for your lovely dogs I take time to learn their individual personalities—some pets need extra play and attention, while others just want calm companionship. I always keep their space clean, monitor for any changes in behavior or appetite, and send regular photo updates to their owners so they feel reassured.
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: Hello! My name is Elle (Ellie) and for as long as I can remember, I’ve loved being around animals. Growing up, we always had pets in our household. We fostered over a dozen puppies and kittens for the local Humane Society, and that love turned into volunteering for a non-kill animal shelter in college. I have experience with a range of dog breeds, sizes, and behavioral issues. Most of all, I love being around dogs and cats and will treat your pet like it’s my own. I am a photographer, so when I’m not taking photos I spend time at home with our Cockapoo Honey. I have a very flexible schedule and would love to spend time with your pets! Your pets are my priority, and in order to develop trust with your dogs I take a slow approach. Someone coming into their space can be new and scary, and they should be able to approach me at their own comfortability.
“Our Vida is a rescue and can be an emotional bundle of nerves, and hesitant to walk because of it. Hanna did a great job gaining her trust, and managing her hesitation to walk. By taking Vida around the block once and bringing her home, to show Vida she was a friend and would return her when it was time. Then encouraging Vida to go back out to complete their walk. This was our first time working with Hanna and she didn’t disappoint. Thank you Hanna for taking care of Vida. We appreciate your compassion towards our bundle of nerves.”

“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!”

About: I currently have 3 pups of my own and before moving to Folsom I volunteered as a foster for the Elk Grove Animal Shelter. I’ve fostered many dogs for long and short term. I would participate regularly in a program they called doggy day out where we would take the shelter pups out for the day. I work from home most days and have a pretty flexible schedule during the week. Weekends are a little tight but sometimes possible with advance notice. I’m very hands on with my own pets and would treat any fur baby in my care as my own. I never leave them unsupervised outdoors, even with a fenced in yard. While I do not currently crate my pups but I do have experience with crate training if that is the desire of the pet parents.
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 grown up with and taken care of animals of all kinds since i was very young. I’ve tended to geckos, cats, dogs (from chihuahuas to Great Danes) and even horses. I have experience with rescued animals and have participated in dog/puppy training with professionals. I am a stay at home mom who does occasional markets. I have a young baby and I spend my days gardening and cleaning and going for walks. having more company like a furry friend always makes my days brighter! I live in a house with lots of backyard space. My home isn’t the biggest but definitely a good size cozy environment for any pet.
