Sam watched our cat Meow Meow for a whole week & was the best sitter we have had! She was a great communicator, prompt & was well loved by our cat! We hope to have Sam help us while we’re on vacation in the future. Couldn’t have gone without her!

Jessica is a fantastic, kind, and down-to-earth person. She is trustworthy and will love and take care of your pups as if they are her own. My four pups love Jessica; she walked and played with them while we were on vacation and took them out for walks while we had a long day at work! She was a lifesaver, and we adore her! You would be lucky to have Jessica as your pet caregiver.

Katelyn goes above and beyond when watching our house and pups while we are gone. One of my dogs is rambunctious, very large, and likes to do naughty things to get attention but Katelyn has all the patience in the world for her! I think the dogs are disappointed when we come home because they love Katelyn and all the attention and love she gives them. Highly recommend her for any fur baby needs!

Taylor used to take care of my cat, Milo, whenever I was out of town. He was old, and a bit of a crank, but he really took to Taylor and she did a great job taking care of him. She is honest, hard working and thoughtful, and will do a great job if you decide to hire her. I highly recommend that you do.

About: I have cared for all types of domesticated pets professionally since July 2018. I love what I do and never work a day in my life. The best part is assisting the owner by giving them peace of mind that their pet is well cared for and safe while having fun while they're away. My life revolves around the pets: pets I care for and my own four fur loves. I occasionally step out for an event or appointment, or to check on another pet. I never leave the pets alone for more than the allotted and appropriate time. I rotate the person by family pets, unless I have regulars who I absolutely know get along. Your pet will have a few hours out to roam the house and yard. Then I will put them in a decent sized room to rest, drink water, play with their toys, eat, etc. I then rotate the pets all day within the time I am awake. I feed and potty them on the same schedule as at home. They will get tons of attention and human interaction. I don't kennel unless owner would like.

About: Hi, I have taken care of dogs of all sizes and breeds from age 15. We have pet sat professionally and also for friends and families going on trips for short or long term. I’m a stay at home mom and love pets!!! 😀 We can provide boarding for your dog(s) of most sizes. We have two medium size dogs that get along well with all different sizes, age and breeds. We are home all the time so your dog will be well cared for and get a lot of attention! We live on about 3 acres here in El Dorado Hills and have a lovely creek running through our property. We have a portion of our property fenced off for dogs to freely roam around and enjoy. This allows for plenty of outdoor play time. We have two dogs ourselves, Mochi male Golden retriever (4years) and Mila Female Golden Doodle (2years) both still very much pups and active. They are both fixed, medium size dogs with non aggressive demeanor. Both our dogs are obviously used to having other pups around and enjoy play dates and sleepovers. They are gentle and loving to our kids (12, 3 and 1 year old.) We are home full time so your dog will never be lonely. We are flexible as we know plans can change and appreciate open communication if there is a change of plans. We accept dogs of all size, breed and ages. Your dog will enjoy playing, running, whether it be fetch or water play or wrestling around with the other dogs. They have a run of the downstairs as it is hardwood and accidents would be easier to clean up. We have kiddie/dog gates up in carpeted areas. And a separate gated sleep area/room. If you have any special requests, we’d love to hear them and always do our best to accommodate. I am a retired stay at home home full time mom to care and have fun with your pups of any age, size or breed. Our pups are inside dogs. They are let out for potty breaks, to run/play and everything else to enjoy themselves. They are supervised outside 100% of the time as well as inside the house. Our area is completely fenced in with lots of shades from the trees. Dog Schedule Sample: Basic puppy/dog schedue: Wake up: Anywhere between 4:30-7 depending on pups Potty and play depending on weather. (Completely supervised while outside, we do not let them out and have them roam around on their own.) Breakfast 6:30-8am 30mins then out for potty Nap. Free play. Wrestling around etc. Puppies are taken out every 1-2 hours, more often then older dogs. 3-5pm is more simulation play. Training etc. Dinner: Anywhere around 6-7:30 30mins then out for potty Last play and potty break outside about 8:30-9-30. Tuck in and lights out for the night after coming in. However, schedule can change and vary depending on pups and situations. We are an “at home” environment and enjoy running our place unlike a kenneled facility. We have a completely fenced in yard that’s about a quarter acre or more for dogs to run and enjoy. Our own pups are friendly and enjoy running, wrestling and socializing with other dogs. We do not take in aggressive dogs as this is an “at home” environment.

Margie really loves dogs! She'll make sure that not just their basic needs (food, shelter) are met, but also their emotional and behavioral needs (exercise, attention, mental stimulation, etc). She's a great person to care for your dog or dogs!

About: I’ve never met anyone as passionate about living creatures or life in general as I am. Working with living things also makes me feel alive. I’m a college student with basically no job so I have all the time in the world for animals and their owners alike. Hoping to get a job at the dog shelter near me! Dogs require a special type of love that isn’t always given to them by any random stranger. Cats even more so. The goal is to build a trust with the animal in a way that they can recognize a mutual respect. I’ve had many cats that aren’t “people cats” love me and not be able to leave me alone.

Tl;dr — You can trust Maria. My fiancé and I hadn’t left our Mini Aussie puppy and cat alone for more than 4 hours since getting them last year. We also have essentially zero family and friends in the area, so finding the right sitter for all our upcoming trips was crucial. Maria stood out as that person from the get go. She quickly responded to the care request and stayed for a good long while for the meet and greet. When it came to the day of, our puppy was distraught during the first of two visits for the day since he had never seen someone other than us come in the door. But Maria quickly calmed him and got him back to his playful self. She took care of both animals with reliability, kind care, and thoughtfulness. We will absolutely be calling upon her every time we need care for the fur babies!
