Farm was a lifesaver. She truly loves dogs because she changed her schedule around to fill in for my usual walker. We would be glad to work with her again.

About: My sweet pittie and I work from home in our house with a fenced backyard. I’ve worked as a professional dog walker and dog sitter for over 3 years. I grew up with dogs and have experience caring for a range of breeds. I work from home during the week. I’m available to walk and let your pup out in our backyard regularly. There’s plenty of room to run around and play ball in the yard. I have a fenced in yard and a sweet 3 yr old pittie to keep your pup entertained, if needed. Or I can crate your dog and let them out on whatever schedule needed.

Aichav has been great with my white German Shepherd. My pup can be a lot to handle and we haven’t had a problem. She’s communicative and responsive. She takes my pup on several walks throughout the day while staying in her home. A+!

About: I have over 25 years of hands-on animal care experience, starting in childhood on a farm and continuing throughout my life. Caring for animals has always been a core part of who I am, not just something I do. I have extensive experience with dogs and cats. I am comfortable caring for pets of all ages, including pets with more medicine needs. I work with animals of all sizes and dispositions. I am very experienced with medication administration, including oral medications, subcutaneous injections in cats, injections in dogs, and specialty medications such as cancer treatments, which I administer carefully and safely using proper protective equipment. I am also familiar with veterinary care routines and attentive to changes in behavior or health. I am known for being gentle, patient, observant, and calm, even in challenging situations. I have significant experience caring for senior pets, animals with medical needs, and cats with strong personalities or aggression. I respect animals’ boundaries, read their body language closely, and know when to give space and when to confidently stand my ground so everyone stays safe and comfortable. What truly sets me apart is how deeply I care. I love getting to know each animal as an individual, learning their routines, preferences, and quirks, and interacting with them in the way that works best for them. I take pride in making animals feel safe, respected, and genuinely cared for while their humans are away. I’m trustworthy, attentive, and fully present when I’m with your pets. I will likely give them silly nicknames and may even sing to them, but above all, I will treat them with kindness, respect, and the same level of care I would want for my own animals. I work from home, which means my schedule is very flexible, and pet care fits seamlessly into my daily and weekly routine. Because I’m not tied to a rigid office schedule, I’m able to plan my days around pet visits, routines, and any special care needs rather than trying to fit them in between other commitments. I’m proud to be one of the go-to pet sitters in my Sacramento community, and I take that trust seriously. When I commit to caring for pets, they receive my full attention, not rushed or distracted care. I’m able to reliably maintain feeding schedules, administer medications, provide enrichment and companionship, and keep up with daily care tasks that help pets feel comfortable and secure. I understand how important consistency, calm, and reliability are for pets when their people are away. My flexible schedule allows me to spend quality time with each pet, observe their behavior closely, and notice any changes early. I communicate clearly and provide thoughtful updates so pet parents can feel confident and at ease while they’re gone. Pet sitting isn’t something I squeeze into my schedule. It’s something I intentionally make space for. I genuinely enjoy caring for animals and am excited to continue offering dependable, attentive, and compassionate pet care to my community. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, my approach is centered on safety, consistency, and respect for each pet’s routine. I take the time to understand each pet’s needs, preferences, and any special care instructions so their environment feels as familiar and stress-free as possible. I follow established feeding schedules, medication instructions, and care routines carefully, and I’m experienced administering a wide range of medications when needed. I’m attentive to behavior, appetite, energy levels, and overall comfort, and I address any concerns promptly and thoughtfully. I prioritize creating a calm, clean, and secure environment. I’m mindful of doors, gates, leashes, litter boxes, food storage, and any household safety considerations. I respect pets’ boundaries and personalities, and I interact with them in the way that works best for them, whether that’s active engagement, gentle companionship, or giving them space while still keeping a close eye on their well-being. Communication is very important to me. I provide regular updates, including photos, so pet parents can see that their pets are comfortable, happy, and well cared for. I’m responsive, transparent, and proactive with communication, which helps owners feel confident and at ease while they’re away. Above all, I care for pets with patience, attentiveness, and genuine affection. I take the responsibility seriously and treat every pet and home with the same level of care and respect I would expect for my own.

About: About Me Hi, my name is Esteban Lomeli. Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and I’ve built years of hands-on experience caring for them. From energetic puppies to older dogs who just need a calm, steady walk, I understand that every dog is unique and deserves personalized care. I proudly served 6 years in the Army National Guard, where I learned the importance of discipline, responsibility, and commitment—values I carry into everything I do, including caring for animals. During the devastating Paradise fires, I also dedicated my time to helping displaced and injured animals, which reminded me just how deep my connection to all pets really is. Starting this dog walking business is more than just a job—it’s my passion. I treat every dog as if they were my own, and my goal is simple: to make sure you’re at ease, knowing your four-legged best friend is safe, happy, and cared for. I work full time from 2pm till 1030pm. Im trying to make extra money doing something I love. I enjoy running and exercising with the company of a dog to motivate me I have a fenced backyard and a large yard for ur dogs to run around and enjoy their time. Also have a trail close by to walk. I care for any animal as if they were my own.

About: Hello!! Are you looking for the perfect pet sitter but are afraid to leave your furry loved one alone with a "stranger?" Let me tell you a little about how I would be a great fit to care for your family companion while you are out of town! I have been around animals my entire life. I have owned rats, birds, reptiles, cats, dogs, and horses. I also foster for the local animal shelter, specializing in weight loss, senior animals and neonatals (bottle babies). I have worked in the veterinary field for 5 years as a technician and have experience medicating pets whether they are on a daily pill (or several) or injections. I now work full time from home, so I will be home with your dog all day, unless errands are needing to be done. Have a timid fur baby? You can feel at ease when your pet is with me. I take my time in gaining your pets trust. I am experienced in reading animal behavior and don't push them if they feel uncomfortable. I find ways that interest your pet to feel more comfortable with me, whether it be just sitting in a room on the floor and letting them approach me, offering treats (but not overdoing the treats), if they are dog friendly, I will introduce them to my dogs so they can see that I am not "big and scary." I have a large fenced in backyard for them to run around in, play fetch, or just bask in the sun. They will have their very own bedroom at night to sleep in with a kennel and a bed. If your have an extra large dog, they would be welcome sleeping in the bedroom with us at the foot of the bed. I am very flexible when it comes to making sure your pet is comfortable and feels at home and safe while they stay with me. If you're looking for someone to take your pet on daily walks, I research the area around where you are and find local parks, animal friendly cafes/restaurants or even local trails nearby! Your baby will be sure to get lots of exercise and socialization on our outings! I have both cats and dogs, but have no worry if your pet needs to be "the one and only," I can safely keep them separate so everyone is safe and happy. Please contact me today if you have any questions or would like to set up a meet and greet! I look forward to meeting you and your All dogs are matched appropriately with play mates. If they prefer to be the one and only, I can easily accommodate that as well. Everyone is rotated around for equal play time in the backyard, relaxing in the house, and crated for quiet time. I work from home, so have open availability! I am up at 7am to start potty breaks and breakfast. My office is set up in the living room, so the pups can lounge or play while I work Pets in my care get fed between 7-8am and again at 6pm, unless otherwise discussed. I have a large fenced in backyard that is checked before each pup is dropped off. They are never left out longer than they want. Pets are crate rotated throughout the day if I have dogs that may not play well with others. All medium-large dogs are crated at night. Bedtime is usually between 8-10pm

About: I am 19 years old doing this so I can make some extra money on the side and currently take care of my older brother, who has autism, which has taught me how to remain composed, aware, and reliable in all situations. Those skills are easily applied to pet care, particularly with nervous, timid, or sensitive animals. For example, my own dog has depression anxiety which I make sure to tend to quickly! I can easily fit time with your lovely pets into my daily schedule. I'm free any time after 11AM because I get my brother on the bus at around nine in the morning. Since I'm still learning how to drive, I typically take the bus, train, or Uber to get around. The only thing I know is that I might have to wait until about 5 PM for my mom to return if she works overtime on a Friday, but that rarely ever happens. There is a chance that my schedule can improve so make sure to keep an eye out! I treat every pet under my care as if they were a member of my own family. Making them feel secure, understood, and loved is always my top priority. By feeding them on time, taking them for walks or play, and making sure they receive lots of attention and are comfortable, I try to keep things as simple as possible. I make sure they have everything they require, keep their area neat, and regularly change their water. To reassure the owner that their pet is happy, safe and in good care, I also provide updates and pictures

About: I have years of experience with dogs and pets, starting from growing up around animals to caring for neighbors’ and friends’ dogs. I’m comfortable with routine walks, basic commands, and following care instructions exactly as owners outline them. I also have experience with senior dogs and dogs who need extra patience and care. Pet care fits into my routine in a structured, consistent way. I plan my schedule in advance so I can give each pet my full attention without rushing. I keep a limited number of bookings to ensure walks and visits happen on time and aren’t treated as an afterthought. I’m especially reliable for recurring walks and drop-ins during the week, and I keep my calendar updated so owners always know my availability. If I accept a booking, I commit to it fully and build the rest of my day around that responsibility. I care for pets with a strong focus on safety, routine, and clear communication. Whether I’m in my home or a client’s home, I follow the pet’s normal schedule as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, and any specific care instructions provided by the owner. I take time at the beginning of each visit to let the pet get comfortable, check collars, harnesses, and leashes, and make sure the environment is secure before starting walks or play. I keep doors and gates secured, avoid unsafe situations, and stay attentive at all times — especially around traffic or unfamiliar dogs. In a client’s home, I respect the space and leave it as I found it, while making sure the pet feels calm and cared for. After each visit or walk, I provide a clear update so owners know how everything went. My goal is always to create a safe, low-stress environment where pets feel comfortable and owners feel confident.

Emily is great - reliable, communicative and a very calming presence for my pups. They are always excited to see her and are happy and tired after their walks. Emily also keeps an eye on my older girl and brings her back early if she's getting too tuckered out. They even seem to behave themselves with her so she has been a very good influence.
