“As first-time Rover users, we chose Alexandra and all we can say is Alexandra is the best! She is extremely prompt & communicative and was eager to help us navigate the app and Rover support when we realized we were being charged holiday fee outside of the holiday period. You can tell she genuinely cares about the pets she cares for while the owners are away. Thanks Alex!”

“If you’re looking for a wonderful friend for your dog during these crazy pandemic times, look no further than Teri! Our girls love her to death, and she has been absolutely amazing during the quarantine, taking every safety precaution (gloves, shoe coverings, social distancing handoffs outside the house). We absolutely love Teri!”

About: Ever since I was 10 I've taken care of dogs. I have experience in many different ages of dogs from newborn puppies to full grown. Since it is summer your pets will always fit in my schedule! Saturday and Sunday will be the only days I can't fit your pets in. I will always be willing to feed, clean, play and walk with your pets if they need it. I can stay overnight too as well.

“We feel like our dog is in great hands whenever booking Michelle. Very communicative before and during the process.”

About: Hi there! I am a recent law school graduate currently studying for the bar exam. In addition to growing up with dogs, I also have experience dealing with reactive dogs. For a time I had a rescue dog, Judge, who struggled with aggression, leash reactivity, and general fear/anxiety. Training with him and learning from him made me extremely educated on dog safety, care, and proper protocols when out on walks to ensure a good time for everyone involved. I recently moved to Sacramento after graduating law school, and would love to walk your dog (and maybe even help with some training) while I am studying for the bar exam. Hope to hear from you! My study schedule for the bar is exam is flexible as it is a self-paced course. I normally go for a walk in the mornings before I start my day, but I am free any time to assist! I have a large SUV that I’m happy to take your dog along in for a little adventure! My favorite daily walks in Sac is along the American River and I’d love to bring a pup along. I am also happy to stay local to wherever you live and wherever your dog is most comfortable.

About: I have experience with different collars and leashes, I have experience with large dogs and small dogs, and I have experience with reading dog body language, and leash training. I don’t currently have a job, so I have an open schedule to dog walks at almost any time. I can also do a scheduled walk weekly I have a large fenced yard in my own home that I own. But I prefer to take care of your animals at your own home so they feel more comfortable. Or walk them in a completely different location.

“We are repeat clients. Payton is consistent, professional and responsive. She is punctual and covers good distance when walking my two dogs. They are always tired and satisfied with their walks. She provides good feedback and photos on their report cards. We highly recommend Payton.”

“Raquel was a real treat to meet! She was great with my dog, Molly and was patient with my constant scheduling modifications. Raquel is very punctual with the times I selected and walks through the door at that time. Not a moment to soon or a moment too late. I am very pleased with Raquel's professionalism. I have found Molly's walker!”

About: There's something about caring for dogs and cats that brings my heart alive. There's nothing I'd rather do than care lovingly attentively for these animals. I am a retired English teacher, and my time is unlimited. I prefer long term, overnight sitting in your home. I am fit and love walking and playing with your loved one. I treat them as if they were my own. Having been raised caring for my families dogs, cats, horses, cows, ducks, fish, and even peacocks, I am most comfortable with animals. I follow instructions, administer medicine when necessary, and leave your home in perfect condition as you left it. Some folks say I'm too old to do this...I know I'm not. I can walk 2 miles easily with dogs. I have described my affection for dogs and cats which I hope reflects the care I will provide, and I would be so pleased to serve you.

“Great communication, very patient with my dogs who are weary of new people. I will definitely book her again when needed!”

About: I have been a dog owner for over a decade. I have owned rat/Boston/French terriers and German shepherds. Currently I have two dogs, Sally and Maggie. They are Boston terrier mixes who love to sunbathe and chase around tennis balls! I love dogs and am responsible and trustworthy. I am looking for full time employment at the moment, therefore I am a dog walker for the flexibility. A very close friend of mine, who I admire, recommended becoming a dog walker because I adore dogs. I have pet sat before and am high energy for these dogs. I would love to be able to form relationships with dogs on this site so regular customers are always welcomed. I tend to take my dog to Discovery Park regularly and they meet other dogs as well. I am currently looking for full time employment so I am flexible so I can chat with owners and find times that work for the pets! I have a fenced backyard and two lovely dogs although potential clients would need to meet my dogs to ensure safety! In a client's home, I would ensure they have a list of expectations regarding roles and am always respectful of the space, keeping the home as it was left.

“Shang is great! I always feel so comfortable and happy having her pick up and walk my pup! He always has a great time! 🐾 Shang always sends picture and text updates and is very thorough:)”

About: Please look through my photos to get a bit of me in a snapshot! I have had pets all my life and I’ve been housesitting since I was 16 years old in high school. Now I’m a 27 year old Davis graduate who is still eager to help out with furry family’s in the community. I used to work with cats, and I have two of my own now, so I have quite a lot of experience with them. I had dogs growing up, and I've been taking care of other's dogs for the last 11 years. I have experience with oral medication for both dogs and cats. I have a bit of experience in pain management medications and scheduling. I have experience with anxious dogs and older dogs ranging from small to medium-large. I am often a busy person, so for me the most important aspect of working together is communication and honesty. If I feel like I can’t provide the services you are looking for, I will let you know quickly and truthfully. I know how scary it is to leave behind your pets and I want all of my clients to know I have their best interest in mind when booking. I am currently between jobs and taking a couple of online courses so I have a fully open and flexible schedule. I live in Davis and have my own cats that I attend to and love on, but I am also helping foster cats with my friend in Sacramento. I am comfortable in both Davis and Sacramento, and I spend a lot of time in both. I can always adjust my schedule to try and work something out that works for you and your pet. I have a fenced in yard and two cats that generally stay out of the way when a new friend is around. I live with one other person that is also very welcoming and friendly with new animals. We have plenty of places to explore with a decent sized backyard and 3 nearby parks. If I'm providing care in your home, simply explain what you're looking for and I will do my best to accommodate, or be honest if it's not something I can manage. Overnights and drop-ins should not be a problem as long as I can also drop in on my animals.

About: I have worked with cats and dogs of all ages & sizes for the past 3 years with my previous employer, McCulloch Pet Sitting located in Las Vegas, NV. I recently have moved to Sacramento and am looking to continue pet sitting. I am Cat & Dog CPR & First Aid certified through American Red Cross. I currently am available for drop in visits and walks as of right now. Availability for overnight stays may open up in the near future. I am comfortable with pets of all kinds and will gladly perform proper feeding, walking and playing routines to ensure that they are well taken care of in the times requested.

About: ur friendly neighborhood avid animal lover here to help you with your fur babies! as a former animal shelter employee and current animal hospital worker, I’m familiar with all different kinds of dogs and cats of different ages, breeds, demeanors and needs. I’m comfortable with young puppies to seniors, nervous/shy cats, those who need medication and anyone in between ☺️ I’m located right in the heart of the Mission District and work in Noe Vallley, so anywhere in those two areas are easy for me to access. I also have a car and can access further if need be! As someone who has seen plenty of emergency cases in my profession, I’m very specially aware within people’s homes of what may be considered safe or unsafe for your baby. Just let me know if I need to keep an extra eye on a specific room or piece of furniture in your room!

“He was very kind even though my dogs were a bit nervous and gave him a hard time, he even stayed longer to make sure they got their walk and fed them for me. 10/10!!”

About: My love for animals began in the womb and by the time I turned 2, I had already learned how to care for my puppy. I've been Dr. Dolittle ever since! I absolutely know how to make pets feel comfortable and loved, creating a warm, safe space where your pets can truly relax while you’re away. My home is home for your pets while they’re away from home. I have experience administering medications and providing senior care to dogs, and I’ve used that knowledge in my role as a foster for two local animal shelters here in Sacramento. This hands on experience means I can give your senior dog the extra attention they deserve. Additionally, I’m pretty good at training dogs, which allows me to help reinforce good behavior while they’re with me. I'm no expert but I do apply what I've learned and it works. I do offer light grooming and bathing to keep your pet looking and feeling great and smelling even better- full disclosure, once again I am no expert at grooming nor am I a professional but I have groomed my own animals for years with no issues and will gladly do the same for your pet if needed. Whether it's taking them for walks, playing fetch, catch-me-if-you-can, or just cuddling up on the bed, my goal is to ensure they have a fantastic time filled with love and attention. I am a stay at home mom! This allows me plenty of time to dedicate to pet care. I can provide attentive playtime, feeding, and grooming throughout the day. My flexible routine enables me to ensure that each pet receives the love and care they deserve while I also balance my responsibilities at home. Whether it’s playing, feeding, or simply spending time with the animals, I can easily fit pet care into my day to day activities. PSA!! *DO NOT BOOK IF YOU ARE NOT SURE! DO NOT BOOK IF YOU WILL LOOK FOR OTHER PROVIDERS INSTEAD! DO NOT BOOK IF YOU PLAN TO USE MY TIME AS LAST RESORT! I HAVE A DAILY SCHEDULE I FOLLOW AS WELL AND WOULD PREFER TO KEEP IT & ONLY ADJUST BASED ON FOR SURE BOOKINGS!* THANKS!! In my home, I provide a safe and comfortable environment for pets with a gated backyard and a fenced front yard where they can play and explore. Whether it's play time in the yard or a cozy spot to relax indoors, I prioritize the wellbeing and happiness of every pet in my care.
