“Outstanding pet sitters! They went above and beyond to care for my cats—ensuring fresh food and water, clean litter, and a clean environment. They gave the beasts plenty of love, attention, and brushing. We came home to happy, well-cared-for pets.”

About: Animals have been the heart of my home for as long as I can remember—I’ve grown up surrounded by the love of both dogs and cats my entire life! That lifelong bond inspired me to become a professional dog groomer, meaning I bring a deep understanding of dog behavior, gentle handling, and professional health awareness to every pet I meet. Above all, your furry family member’s safety and comfort mean everything to me. To give you total peace of mind, I am Dog & Cat First Aid & CPR Certified through the American Red Cross. Whether your pup needs an extra-patient friend, a high-energy playtime, or just someone who truly understands their cues, I promise to treat them with the exact same love and devotion I give my own! I am a full-time professional groomer, so my life naturally revolves around animals! My schedule allows plenty of flexibility to give your pet the dedicated care and attention they deserve. I am currently available for drop-in visits and active walks to keep your pup happy and healthy. Because of my professional background, I am also more than happy to discuss customized grooming services to keep them looking and feeling their best. Let's connect and find a routine that works perfectly for your furry family member! When I’m looking after your fur babies in your home, their safety, happiness, and comfort are my absolute top priorities! Every pet has their own wonderful personality, and I love being versatile enough to match their vibe perfectly. Along with keeping up with their usual feeding and watering routines, I tailor my visits entirely to what makes them happy. If you have a high-energy pup who lives for fun, I offer exceptional, toy-squeaking, tail-wagging playtime! But if your sweet pet is a total couch potato, I am more than happy to just curl up, offer gentle scratches, and keep them company. Please note that I currently only offer care directly out of your home, ensuring your best friend stays safe, loved, and thoroughly pampered in their own cozy environment!

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: 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.
“Payton came to take care of my puppy when I’d never left him home alone. She was quick to respond and even found the dog food when I forgot to tell her where it was! Will definitely be using her again!”

About: I have 4 kitties and 1 pup of my own. I have had no less than 3 cats my entire life, and am always helping the local strays as well, so I have loved cats of every type of personality and special need. I take my pup with me just about everywhere, so I have a lot of experience being out and about with a canine companion. My dog doesn't like other dogs, so I am also comfortable caring for pups that prefer not to be around other dogs. If you're looking to give your pup an extra special day out at a new park, I would love to bring them on an adventure! If your dog and/or cat is all about routine, I've got you. Playtime? I am so there! Or maybe your little one is a bit anxious and just wants some scratches and snuggles - I am here to make them feel safe and loved while you are away. <3 Whatever they need most, I am here to provide. I am a freelance graphic designer and illustrator, and as such, I have an extremely flexible schedule, so I can be available whenever it is that you need me the most! I always have access to my own car, so even if you need your pup taken to an appointment or to their most special favorite park, I am happy to do so. If you're looking for someone to stay with your pet all day and/or night, everything I need to do my freelance work is portable, so I can give your little one all the attention they deserve. :) I am the master of catering to the needs of all different types of pet personalities, as I have 4 cats and 1 dog of my own, all very unique from one another. As such, I am able to cater the care I give to fit perfectly with your little one's needs and routines.
“Awesome service as always. :) We can always count on Jazmine to take very good care of our babies and she did not disappoint. Our babies are shy and are always hiding when they hear the door open, but Jaz always made sure she finds them when she gets to out place. She then plays with them and makes sure they eat and I get daily updates and pictures of them. They will miss her daily visits now that I'm back home. Thank you, Jaz! 😊”


“Natalie was absolutely wonderful! She took amazing care of my drama queen dachshund and my very affectionate and clingy deaf cat while I was away — not an easy duo, but she handled them both with so much patience, humor, and genuine affection. I was shocked that my normally reluctant to meet new people dog was immediately ready to go on walks with Natalie (Natalie went at her pace and comfort level, which made all the difference). She sent detailed updates and plenty of pictures every day, so I felt totally at ease (and honestly like I wasn’t missing a thing). Both pets looked so happy and relaxed, which says everything about the kind of care she provides. To top it off, Natalie even noticed a perishable package had been delivered and thoughtfully put it in the fridge for me, truly so nice of her and way above and beyond. I came home to two content pets and my fresh veggies. If you’re looking for someone who’s reliable, compassionate, and treats your pets like her own, Natalie is the one. I’d give her ten stars if I could! I will 100% be rebooking Natalie moving forward.”

“Mindi was wonderful with Odin! She stopped by for a drop-in visit, gave him a nice walk, and made sure he was well cared for. I could tell he was happy and comfortable after their time together. Highly recommend her for anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”


“Jenna was great with our two cats while we were out of town for the week! She made sure they had wet and dry food, water and clean litter boxes each day. Great communication and sent us pictures each day”


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)
“had a great experience working with Shang over a two week period. She walked and fed my dogs with so much care and reliability. I even had an “oops” moment where I mistakenly thought a day was booked when it wasn’t, and she was incredibly gracious and understanding when I reached out. Once we sorted out my mistake, she confirmed the remaining days and everything went smoothly. I truly appreciate her professionalism, kindness, and flexibility. I would definitely use her again and highly recommend her!”


About: I have had dogs and cats as pets since I was young and I have always built strong bonds with them based on trust, consistency, and calm. I have helped friends and neighbors with caring for their pets since I was young. That includes dogs both large and small, cats, a salamander, a parakeet, a turtle, and a toad. I currently have two cats, Doce and Harmony, and a chihuahua/Italian Greyhound mix named Brixton. I am familiar and comfortable with providing structure and following through with any and all special needs your pet may have, including strict feeding and walking schedules, medications, bedtimes, etc. I would love to meet you and your pets to help to support you in any way I can. I work until 2 pm on weekdays, which means I can be available to your pet by 2:30. My weekends are completely open. I can spend as much time with your pet as you'd like within those windows of time. Multiple walks, feedings, play time, quiet time; I'm happy to be there for all of it. Being invited into a home and caring for a precious pet is one of the greatest shows of faith I can imagine. I will carry that into everything I do to be sure your trust is repaid with care and intention. I will do everything I can to leave your home just as I found it and to be sure your pet is happy and cared for. No special instruction is too much. I'm comfortable with pets and people of all temperaments and ways of being.
About: I have raised puppies, kitties and snakes. I trained my Staffy (who passed last year) in a Law Enforcement environment. So now, without her, I have so much love to give!! I work from home Mon, Thur & Fri, so I can do most days, nights and weekends. I am available to host over nights, or can accommodate special needs in your home as well. I have provided care of highly sensitive need animals, so I am vigilant about care. I have a fenced yard and my kitchen can be closed off for special needs. I am open to all of your pets care needs.
About: I’ve lived with dogs and cats my whole life! I have over 5 years of experience pet sitting for neighbors and clients on ......... I specialize in drop ins and dog walking! I have walking training through front street animal shelter and volunteered there in my free time! I am a very active and loving person who wants to do the best for your pet! I am willing to do what it takes to give your pet all the love, attention, and care they need! I’m a fast learner and will give your pet a stress free caring experience!

I am a college student at Cal State Monterey Bay who is back home for the summer! I am free pretty much whenever and would love to take care of your pet! In the past when I have done drop in visits for cats/dogs I have feed them, picked up after them, and gave them a lot of love and attention. But I am willing to do whatever the animal in my care needs!

About: I've taken care of my dogs, friends' dogs, and house-sat for dog owners. I’m experienced with dogs of all energy levels and temperaments. I currently work Sunday through Wednesday, and I’m fully available Thursday through Saturday. On those days, I can give your pet my full attention and focus on their care, routine, and needs. On Sunday through Wednesday, I am available before 8 am and after 8 pm. I provide dog sitting and dog walking with a strong focus on safety, trust, and maintaining each dog’s normal routine. I am comfortable with small dogs and large dogs who need a lot of exercise.

About: Hi! I’m originally from Norway and currently live with my husband and our very friendly cat. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them is something I genuinely enjoy. I was the main caregiver for my dog for 11 years, so I’m very used to daily walks, feeding, playtime, cuddles, and making sure pets feel safe and happy. Since then, I’ve also volunteered at animal shelters, fostered cats, cared for neighbors’ and friends’ dogs, and I even had 3 bunnies myself, so I’m comfortable with all kinds of personalities and energy levels. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets, because they really are family. Whether your pet is playful, shy, energetic, or just wants company and affection, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, loved, and cared for while you’re away. I’ll treat them like they’re my own❤️❤️ I currently work part time starting around 4 PM, and my husband gets off work around the same time (3:30pm) so there will almost always be someone home to care for your pet. I also have a lot of free time and love to stay active during the day, I love to walk, hike and run,so pet care fits very naturally into my routine. I’m excited to give your pet lots of attention and care while you are away! I always want pets to feel safe and comfortable in my home. We recently moved into our apartment, so there isn’t a lot of clutter or things pets can get into. Our cat is also very nosy, so we’ve already made sure our home is very pet-proof and safe. I pay close attention to each pet’s routine, personality, and any instructions from the owner. Whether that’s walks, feeding schedules, playtime, medication, or just giving them extra attention and comfort, I’ll make sure they feel cared for and at home while you’re away. I also love going on walks and staying active, so dogs will get plenty of exercise, attention, and outdoor time with me💓

Khaili was great! She was available on short notice and we appreciated the meet and greet. Our cats were kept happy and she did great sending updates, communicating, and following our care instructions. I would highly recommend her and will be booking her to sit our kitties again!

Once again, our "kids" were in the best hands with Rebecca. With her daily updates, we felt so comfortable being gone so far away. Rebecca also helped with a couple of household items we needed done during her visits. She is definitely at the top of our list for our out of town care providers.
Jazmine is such a life saver! We’re out of town for a weekend and I noticed on our pet cam that one of our auto feeders wasn’t running so I was panicking about our cats not having enough food. Jazmine accommodated a last minute same day booking request responding early in the morning and heading over to our place on a short notice. She went above and beyond what I even requested because I really just needed to make sure the cats had food, but she cleaned out their entire water fountain (which is a lot of work!), scooped all their litter and left the place super clean, and also spent time playing with them. We have a new cat that is in isolation right now and I provided very sparse direction but Jazmine knew exactly what to do with almost no direction, bringing her up another portion of wet food, changing out her water bowl for fresh water, and scooping her litter even though I didn’t even get a chance to tell Jazmine where we had placed the litterbox. I know whenever Jazmine is over our kitties and house are in good hands, and it’s a huge weight off my shoulders having a super reliable, professional, and responsible cat sitter who takes amazing care of my cats! Thanks a bunch Jazmine!

Payton did a great job watching our dog and two kittens. She was reliable, communicative, and made us feel comfortable knowing our pets were in good hands while we were away. Everyone was happy and well cared for when we got home. We’d definitely recommend Payton and would be happy to book with her again! 🤗

It's clear the amount of care and undertanding Jandy has of animals with the way she interracted with my cat. Not only does she spend significant time getting to know them and ensuring the human that their fur baby is in good hands, she also built my cat a blanket fort for enrichment while I was gone. It was very sweet and I know my cat was in good hands.
