Pet Sitting Gateway West

“Davis was super attentive to my cat, Muc! I received daily reports and photos of how Muc was doing. Davis treated Muc like his own. I really appreciated the attention to detail. Davis is definitely my go-to.”

“Left my very big, very shy cat alone for the first time, and was a little anxious about finding someone to check on him. Payton was the perfect person for the job! She sent regular updates, and even sent photos of the cat under the bed! I highly recommend you hire Payton to watch your furry friend - you and your pets will be glad you did!”

About: I’ve been around pets my entire life, and I truly believe they’re one of the best parts of the world. I was a dog owner for over 10 years, and after losing my sweet girl to cancer, I really missed having furry friends around. That experience reminded me just how much joy and companionship pets bring into our lives. From dogs and cats to fish and hamsters, caring for animals has always been a big part of my life. I’m a family guy with a comfortable home and a safe, secure environment where your pet can feel relaxed, loved, and right at home. I understand how stressful it can be to leave your furry family member with someone else. My goal is to give you peace of mind while making sure your pet gets plenty of attention, affection, exercise, and care. Whether your companion needs walks, drop-in visits, sitting, boarding, or simply some extra love and attention, I’m happy to help. I’ll treat your pet like part of my own family and make their safety, comfort, and happiness my top priorities. I look forward to meeting you and your four-legged family member! 🐾❤️ I work part-time in the evenings and am available during the day to spend time with and care for your pets. While I’m at work, my wife and daughter are home and will be there to care for them. Your pets will always have someone at home with them, so they won’t be left alone. You can have peace of mind knowing your pets will receive care, attention, and companionship around the clock. I have a good-sized, secure backyard where dogs can safely enjoy some outdoor time, as well as a public walking path right behind my house for those who enjoy stretching their legs and getting some exercise. I love taking dogs for walks—it’s a great way for them to get fresh air, exercise, and enrichment while keeping them happy and comfortable. I always make sure pets are supervised, cared for, and treated like part of the family while they’re in my home.

“Sage went above and beyond my expectations! She took such good care of my cat and dog, they were obviously well loved and fed. My house was cleaner than when I left and I would recommend her highly to anyone. Communication was excellent and I received constant pictures and notes as to what was happening at home. All in all a superb experience.”

About: I share my home with two animals: Merlot (my 14-year-old dog) and Meleys (my 2-year-old cat). I’ve always grown up with animals and truly can’t imagine life without them—if I had the space, I’d probably have 10 more! I work from home about half the week, which means I’m able to spend plenty of time giving your pet attention, care, and companionship throughout the day. Both of my pets are friendly and welcoming to dogs of all sizes. Merlot is more laid-back in his older age and spends most of his time relaxing, while Meleys is comfortable around friendly animals but also has her own quiet space if she prefers some distance. We also have a fenced-in dog park within my complex, perfect for safe playtime, fetch, and burning off energy—especially during the cooler mornings and evenings. Your dog will be treated like part of the family here! Pets are welcome on the furniture, and if they’re used to sleeping in bed, they’re more than welcome to join us. I also have crates available if your dog prefers or is accustomed to crate sleeping. I work part-time from home and set my own schedule, so your pup will get plenty of attention, walks, and playtime throughout the day. I’m home all day on Mondays and Fridays, which allows for consistent care and companionship. I’m also available Tuesday through Thursday, though I work in-office in Elk Grove from 6am–2pm. On those days, I can stop home on my lunch break for a potty break and check-in, as long as your pup is comfortable being home alone for a few hours in between. I’m happy to walk your dog alongside mine or separately—whatever best suits their needs and comfort level. I care for pets as if they’re my own, tailoring everything to their routine and comfort level. I work part-time from home (and fully remote Mondays and Fridays), so pets get plenty of attention, playtime, and companionship. In my home, dogs enjoy access to a fenced-in dog park for exercise and nearby park walks. Pets are welcome on furniture and the bed if allowed, and I can also accommodate crate routines. For cats, I offer both social integration or a completely separate, quiet space if preferred. I’ve set up a private guest room and bathroom in the past with litter, food, and water to help cats feel safe and adjust at their own pace.

“Jazmine is great! I’ve been having her do drop in visits for months now, I didn’t need to worry about anything while being away. She’s really good at communicating, always give me updates, and super sweet! Highly recommend her service. Will continue to let her cat-sitting for me!”

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.

“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!”

“Shang was amazing. Our dogs loved her. Great updates, photos everyday. We were thrilled with the amazing service she provided. Don’t hesitate. Do yourself and your pets a favor and select Shang. She will be our first choice always.”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for years and understand that every dog has their own unique personality and needs. As a dog owner myself, I know how important it is to find someone who will treat your pet with the same love and care you do. I have experience with daily walks, feeding, playtime, administering routines, and providing lots of attention and companionship. I’m comfortable following detailed care instructions and keeping pet parents updated with photos and messages throughout each visit. Caring for my own dog has also taught me patience, consistency, and how to recognize when a dog needs extra space or a calmer approach. My goal is always to help pets feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away. My availability is flexible, and I’m happy to accommodate your pup’s preferred walking times, whether they need morning exercise, midday breaks, or evening strolls. As a dog mom, I know how important it is to trust someone with your pup. I provide patient, attentive walks focused on safety and happiness.

“Whitney provided updates with my cat at each visit! Very happy with my first time using Rover and finding Whitney! I would love for her to watch my cat again.”

“So happy I had Erin check in on my two cats while we were gone for the long weekend. I loved receiving the visit updates and photos. Erin is very reliable and great with communication. Highly recommend booking her!”

Emily L.

“Lauren was perfect for a quick check in! She was available on short notice which helped me a ton. She even walked him a bit on his potty break to get some extra energy out.”

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.

“Douglas took great care of our pups while we were away. We will definitely use him in the future and would recommend to others as well. Thank you!”
