“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: I’m a proud dog mom for over 6 years and have spent more than 10 years caring for dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to wise seniors. With experience in both clinic and home settings, I tailor care to each pet’s unique needs. I love giving cuddles, playtime, and gentle patience to every furry friend. Since I work from home, your pets will get plenty of potty breaks, walks, and companionship. It’s like having a buddy around all day! To me, every pet is family, and I’m all about keeping them happy, safe, and totally loved. Pet care is a big part of my daily routine. I’m a dog mom, so I’m used to regular walks, playtime, and lots of cuddles. While I’m staying at your home, I’ll be nearby working on my laptop but always ready to give your pets attention, walks, and cuddles whenever they need. I adjust my care depending on each pet’s needs, whether that’s extra naps for seniors or lots of play for puppies. Taking care of pets isn’t just work for me, it’s something I really love and make part of every day. When I’m caring for pets in your home, I treat your space and fur babies like my own! I stick to their usual routines to keep things comfy and familiar. Lots of love, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and cuddles are guaranteed. It is all tailored to what your pet needs. I keep everything safe and tidy, and I’ll keep you in the loop with regular updates so you can relax knowing your pets are in great hands.

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!

About: I have recently started sitting for a family friends dogs. I am very reliable with walking, feeding and naturing. I have worked with senior dogs as well. I currently work from home so I have more time to take care of pets. With free time during the weekends as well. I would be able to take the animals out 2-3 time during the week on breaks. I care for pets as if they were my own—providing love, attention, and a safe environment tailored to their needs. Whether in my home or yours, I follow all routines, feeding schedules, and exercise requirements to ensure your pet feels comfortable, happy, and well cared for.

“We are repeat clients. My goldendoodle Milo and standard poodle Cee Cee love going on walks with Payton. She covers a good distance over the 60 minute walks. I appreciate the details provided and photos.”

“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!”

About: As a teacher my summer schedule has allowed me to dog sit for families while they are on vacation. I love building relationships with the dogs and providing families the peace of mind for a relaxing trip. I currently am off for the summer so my weekdays are completely open! I am willing to spend nights and check on pets as often as needed. I am very experienced with high maintenance and older dogs. I am comfortable with administering medicine and catering to any other unique needs. I have lived my whole life with dogs and know they have their special way of doing things. (Only eating in one place, using the restroom only when hearing the magic word, cuddling up with dirty laundry)

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.

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.

About: I have owned a multitude of pets since I was a child, including dogs, cats, reptiles, amphibians, insects, and rodents. I am adaptable and amenable to all animals and any sort of medical needs, strange likes, and behaviors they might have. I am currently on summer break from college and am therefore available for any time or day of the week. Most of my plans are moveable and I’m very flexible with time. I’m adaptable to whatever your household rules are! I can stay all day or just drop in or even sleep on the couch. Whatever helps you to feel comfortable leaving your precious pet, I will do to the fullest and give them lots of love!

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.
