“Brianna did a great job house sitting and watching our two dogs while we were away. She stayed in communication, sent pictures, and helped them feel happy and secure when their parents were away. So very much appreciated!!!!”

“I highly recommend Ian! We have two Frenchies; a 2 year old and a pup who is just two months. It was clear after a night out to celebrate a special occasion that our fur kids had just as much fun and plenty of loving attention.”


“Louisa is amazing! She looked after our dogs and house while we were out of town for a few days. Louisa is incredibly respectful, communicative, and easy to work with. We felt very comfortable with her watching our pups. I would 100% recommend her!”



“Awesome! Shayna treated my boys like they were her own. She handled all of our weird routines smoothly and easily. She checked in to let me know all was well and reached out if a question arose. Will definitely use her again”


About: I started taking care of friends' and neighbors' dogs after retiring in 2024. My lifelong love for cats and dogs of all shapes and sizes is now my daily passion! As an active retiree, I don't have any pets currently, and the house is empty and waiting for my next furry friend! I've cared for everything from dachshunds to a Bernese Mountain Dog. I love cats, but I want to watch them in your home, not mine. Happy to house-sit, work overnight shifts, and care for senior dogs and puppies. Although I don't have a fenced yard, I do have miles of walking trails and parks in the community, as well as an electronic fence for any dogs that need unrestricted access to a yard. I am fully retired and spend my days caring for your pets. Rarely will your important pet be left alone, if at all. I used Rover with my senior dog, Tucker, for over 5 years and met some wonderful people. It was a relief to me when I traveled, knowing my best friend was also enjoying his time in a safe, loving home. Now I meet new animal friends every week, and it feeds my soul and theirs. Your fur baby will have a dedicated sleeping space, feeding space, and unlimited access to our yard, depending on your needs. Full access to the entire house. I encourage you to bring toys, pet beds, crates, and any other items that will make your cherished pet comfortable. We are comfortable giving medication to older dogs, working with young puppies, and customizing our days to fit your pet's regular routines (such as walks, feeding, medication, and brushing). We have access to a private dog park, but we only go there after discussing it with you in advance. Note: we have an unfenced yard but use sound/ vibration to alert your pup if s/he is trying to escape. No electricity involved, just moderate stimulation. Most dogs learn the boundaries very quickly and without any discomfort.


“Melanie was absolutely the best dog and house sitter. My Bailey loved her, and Melanie took such good care of her. This will make my future trips anxiety free. My house was cleaner than I left it when I got home. She is definitely the very best!!”


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 start 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! 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!

“This was the longest trip we have taken, and been away from our dogs. Shelly did a great job, and when she had other things she needed to do, she had her daughter help out, which I believe worked out great! The dogs were very happy to see us return, but I feel they were taken very well care of, and we would definitely ask Shelley to come back. Thank you, Shelly!”

“Meaghan has been a great help to our family who needed care last minute for a family emergency. She was communicative, flexible and took great care of our pets. I woul not hesitate asking Meaghan y to ovpet sit again!”


About: I’ve grown up primarily with large dogs, those dogs smaller alongside feline friends as cared for by my grandfather and I before his passing. Educating and reinforcing the significance of proper animal care in my calling to love on these furry friends with responsibility and compassion! I’m very flexible, just communicate your preferences and needs as I’ll happily make them happen in order to properly provide service to our furry friends! Providing service at the clients home looks like keeping up with a clean environment, annual check ups via phone with the owner while always remaining alert to the animal’s needs.

“Elizabeth was so kind and thoughtful! She cared for my dog and cats AND watched over my home. ❤️ I came home to flowers at my front door! Elizabeth took my dog on daily walks and sent me pictures of her. She even brought my delivered groceries in for me (which I totally forgot about - thank you Elizabeth)! ❤️🙏 she met with me before the booking to meet my dog and see the home and where things were. I’m so blessed and grateful that she was available and that we met!”


About: I’ve always owned dogs and cats and I’ve always been an animal lover. My mom asked me what I want to be when I grow up and I said that I want to play the piano for puppies. I can’t play an instrument for the life of me, but I applied myself and went to school to become a Veterinary Assistant. And yes; I bathe my cat before applying flea meditation. Need a weekend getaway or a date night. I’m available on the week days. I am looking for a second job and with my experience this seems like a perfect fit for me. I will follow guidelines/standards set by you! Also, your animal can tell me the when, where, and for how long we should eat, sleep, play, walk, ect.

About: Served as a volunteer and foster parent for many rescued animals in Bali during the pandemic. My experience with animals is vast. Ive grown up with many different kinds of pets. Cats. Dogs. Birds. Reptiles. Rodents. Chickens. ducks. Donkeys. Horses. Pigs. Goats. You name it. I love all animals. I was raised in the foothills in the redwood forest. I’m a very down to earth and healthy lifestyle human who just loves fur babies of all types. I’m attentive and loving and playful with animals. I really need it as much as they do. I work early in the mornings off around 9am and then have most of the day to myself. It’s nice to have an excuse to take a dog on a walk or to lounge around with some kitty cuddles. Having animals in my home makes it feel more like a home. In my own home I will be in close proximity at all times and I will be home the entire time so I can sense when potty breaks or walks are needed. I really enjoy taking walks myself so it’s a perfect fit to have dogs over. Cats are similar with the exception of walks unless you want to leash train them or already have. I love to keep an eye on them so they don’t hurt themselves and I give lots of play time.

“Rebecca was amazing. She took excellent care of our dogs and we were able to fully enjoy our son's wedding without any concerns. We got cute pics of the dogs and they were super happy upon our return. I highly recommend Rebecca!”


About: Hi friends! I’ve not only grown up with dogs but have one of my own! I’ve been pet sitting/boarding for over 10 years. Good friends, family members and customers of mine have all trusted me to watch their animals or stay over at their house and care for their babies! I’d love to help out if I can. I am currently working part time for a brewery and have free time. That may change in the future but for now, I’m here and available to give 100% of my attention to yours and my fur baby. I live on a few acres and have most of it fenced in. The doggos can roam or stay on leashes, whatever your preference is. I live in a pet friendly environment and safe neighborhood. If I was at your home, I would follow any instructions you would like me to follow.
