“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!”

“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.”

About: I care for pets the same way I care for children with patience, structure, warmth, and lots of positive energy and I also communicate with owners a similar fashion. I’m currently working part-time looking for more full-time employment I am a graduate student and this summer I’ll have a bit more time on my time on my hands. And they seem like a great way to get some extra steps and make some money and provide a service to others. Like I mentioned earlier, I treat pets just as if I was caring for someone’s children so any additional or instructions needed that will help me get to know your pet better and just making sure that all their needs an owner as possible. Concerns are met would be much appreciated. While in my care, I will definitely care for them as my own trust that your pets are safe with me.

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.

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'm so happy to have found Samantha to walk my dog while I'm at work. She responded to my initial request almost immediately and has been very responsive ever since. I needed someone on short notice and Samantha was super accommodating which was a relief. She was great with my dog at the meet and greet and I know she'll be great with her every time! She's wonderful to work with and I'm looking forward to my dog seeing her on a regular basis.”

About: I have taken care of multiple dogs since I was 10 years old, including my own dog as well as many of our neighbors growing up. We just lost our dog this past year, he was 13 years old and had him since 2010. I spent the most time with him, giving him his walks everyday, and had a big contribution in training him when he was younger. I always made sure that each dog that I took care of ate well, always had water, and received plenty of exercise. My schedule is fairly open right now. I am currently working from home and will be available for dog walking and pet sitting in my home Monday through Sunday, anytime after 11am. I have a fenced backyard with a lot of open space. I will also allow the dog to come inside if needed. We also have a lot of extra toys in the house for the dog to play with.

“He watched our dog while we were out of town for four days and he was reliable and communicated with us during each visit. He sent photos of our pup on each visit and also fed and filled his water bowl. We will definitely be booking him again in the future. Thank you, Cedric.”

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: While I specialize in cat sitting and absolutely adore caring for feline companions, I'm also happy to help with dog sitting for friendly, WELL-TRAINED SMALL PUPS. As a cat sitter first and foremost, I only accept ONE dog PER booking to ensure I can provide the best possible care and attention. Though I'm newer to dog care, I'm patient, attentive, and eager to provide a safe, calm environment for dogs who are easygoing and enjoy a relaxed routine. I'm comfortable following detailed care instructions and making sure your pup feels comfortable and cared for while you're away. My heart is with cats, but I'm always happy to give well-mannered dogs the love and attention they deserve too! I'm currently open and flexible with my schedule, so I'm happy to work around your pet's unique needs whether it's regular visits or last-minute plans. Your pet's comfort and routine always come first. I do require an in-person meet and greet before confirming any new booking. This helps ensure your pet feels comfortable and we're a great fit! As a proud cat mom, I care for my cats with a lot of love, patience, and attention to detail. Each of them has their own personality and needs, so I make sure their routines are consistent, their environment feels safe, and they get both playtime and quiet comfort. From feeding and litter box cleaning to brushing and cozy cuddle time, I treat them like family because to me, they are.

About: I grew up with dogs, cats, birds, rabbits etc. I believe animals come into our lives to make it better and to give us unconditional love. I have trained all my puppies as well as cared for my parents elderly Bullmastiff. I am very sensitive to the needs of pets and can feel when something is wrong. My schedule is open Monday - Sunday, I am a stay at home fur mom and I can not wait to meet your fur baby. All of my cats and dogs are indoor. I believe that is the safest way to keep them healthy and protected. However, if your fur baby is outside I will make sure all gates, doors are closed, locked and secure!

About: I’ve been a lifelong dog lover and am the proud dog mom of my own Husky–Goldendoodle, Nagi. Caring for her has given me experience with daily walks, exercise, feeding, enrichment, grooming, and understanding different dog personalities and needs. Friends and family have trusted me to care for their pets, and I know how important it is to provide a safe, loving, and consistent routine while owners are away. In my professional career, I manage programs for the State of California, so being dependable, organized, and communicating clearly comes naturally to me. I bring that same level of responsibility and care to every pet I look after. My goal is to make every pet feel comfortable, loved, and cared for while giving owners complete peace of mind. I’m available for morning, afternoon, evenings, weekend, and holiday pet care. I’m happy to provide walks, drop-in visits, and overnight house sitting depending on my schedule. I always keep my calendar updated and only accept bookings that allow me to give your pet the attention, exercise, and care they deserve. Communication is very important to me, and I’ll send regular photo updates throughout each visit. I know pets feel happiest when they can stay in their own familiar environment. I carefully follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, medications (if needed), and any special instructions. I’ll respect your home as if it were my own and make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I provide frequent photo and video updates so you can travel with peace of mind, knowing your furry family member is in caring and reliable hands.

About: I have owned and taken care of all types of animals almost my whole life. I currently have 2 dogs, 4 cats, a bearded dragon, and a leopard gecko. I have attended puppy training classes and I have experience in raising a puppy of my own. I also have experience in bathing, playing in the pool, walks, feeding time and administering oral medication. Currently I am a college student at San Jose State University, however I am home for the summer with lots of free time! I am looking to make some extra money on the side to help cover college expenses. Just like at my home, safety is my number 1 priority. Doors are locked and shut at all times so no pets can be an escape artist. Make sure to check water levels and fill it if needed, and make sure to keep them on a consistent feeding schedule. While in the home, I will be spending lots of time outdoors with them when the weather allows and make sure they are going to the bathroom to avoid accidents. As with all pets, I make sure to give them lots of love and treat them like they are my own babies.

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)
