About: Over my years I've had different breeds of dogs, and other animals in many different enviroments. Animals approach me out of nowhere. Training animals comes easy to me, I'm patient, thural, and dedicated. Falconry dogs, working class dogs, and even the little ones. Animals are my life, they come first and they love me. Give the dog time to come to me and it'll never leave my side. Follow the owners instructions. Make sure the dog always has water, fed on time, potty breaks, and time outside. Learn the dog and learn how to take care of it.

About: I have extensive experience caring for cats and absolutely adore them. I’ve looked after a wide range—from playful kittens to elderly cats requiring daily medication and special attention. In addition to feline care, I’ve also cared for both large and small dogs. I regularly walked two larger dogs twice a day, managed their food-based medications and probiotics, and made sure they got plenty of affection and snuggle time. I’ve also cared for smaller breeds, including a dachshund and another small companion dog, giving each pet the individual care they need to feel safe and loved!! I just work nights 5 days a week so I have daytime very available, I do leave for work around 8pm and I typically wake up around 9-11 am. I’m used to getting exercise so I don’t mind at all doing 1-2 walks daily and letting them out to go potty. I typically have Monday and Tuesday off ☺️ I’ve been house sitting pretty regularly through another platform, I keep the spaces I’m in incredibly tidy and as clean or cleaner than you left it. I’m very affectionate with animals and love to cuddle with them, if you have cats I love to play with them if they enjoy them, and dogs I can let them outside and throw their ball in between walks doing sits. I primarily prefer to do sits at the house rather than check ins but I’m open to doing check ins!

About: Hi! I grew up on a working family homestead in Oregon, where caring for animals was a natural part of daily life. My mother also ran a pet grooming Business for over 10 years, where I learned how to handle pets that’s aren’t my own. I also worked for a year at petsmart as a groomer/bather myself. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of looking after everything from livestock to house pets—but dogs and cats have always held a special place in my heart. I’ve personally cared for several beloved cats and dogs throughout my life, and I currently share my home with two wonderful cats. I’m especially experienced with Bengal cats, thanks to years of house- and cat-sitting for my sister, who breeds them. At times, I’ve cared for more than 12 cats at once, including administering medications—even to squirmy kittens! It’s not always glamorous, but I’m calm, patient, and confident when it comes to animal care. I’m deeply attuned to animals’ needs and take pride in being gentle, observant, and responsive. Whether your pet is high-energy, shy, or somewhere in between, I’ll do my best to make them feel safe and happy while you're away. I love animals of all shapes and sizes (though I’ll admit reptiles and bugs aren’t quite my thing). I’d be honored to care for your furry friend and look forward to meeting them soon! ** ➡️ I want to also mention that my husband, typically joins me if there’s an extended stay booked. I always make sure to communicate about this- some animals have an aversion to men, so I take care to double check with you to make sure this is ok. He also has a lot of experience caring for animals in general, but is an excellent partner in caring for our two kitties and with his past experiences growing up with dogs and many other animals on a farm in Europe, he is a wonderful pet care partner! ❤️ we look forward to serving you and your pets! I have an open schedule. I work for myself doing Lyft and Uber in the area so I don’t mind traveling and make my own schedule! At this time I don’t offer boarding. We have two cats, and don’t want to stress them out. I do, however, have lots of experience house sitting with pets and always leave a place better than I found it and take full responsibility for our pets environment and needs. I am tidy and will clean up any spills or messes made by me or your buddy.


“Sondra checked in on our 16 week puppy Kai while we did some holiday shopping and did a wonderful job playing & feeding him during the quick visit. I can tell Sondra is very compassionate to dogs. We hope to book her in the future!”


About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and I’m a member of the humane society! I love taking care of animals and playing with them whenever! I’m home every day, I can attend to pet care anytime. I play a lot of sports and I am very active to attend animals. I have a backyard that is completely fenced. I love walking dogs and I can supply food and toys whenever! I also keep my house very clean so they won’t get into anything.

About: Since high school I have had experience with normal pets to the exotic! I can honestly say that each animal is an individual that deserves their specific needs acknowledged and met. I do have experience with senior animals that need medication as well as special needs, there hasn’t been an experience that I haven’t learned from! I’ve even read books like Caesar’s Way in order to better understand my own pets and help them. I’ve even been known to be a bit of a perfectionist although that was in my earlier years now I can gladly say am a seasoned sitter! Please feel free to reach out to me before booking my care and I will answer any and all questions! Caring for your family member fits into my routine because at the moment I am a dog Mom of one dachshund with a good partner that loves her as much as I do! I also do volunteer work, which is extremely flexible. Aside from that a lot of what I do is online, which works out great when pet care is involved I will care for your family member by noting all of their needs as well as asking any questions I have about the environment if it was not already covered in our introduction. I like to take notes!

About: I may be young, but I've had multiple animals in my life already: 3 cats, a handful of dogs, some fish, and even a horse. I also did rescue for 5 years, being a foster family for numerous cats working with my local animal shelter. I also dog-sit for family and friends. I am free any day throughout the week as long as I get notice at least a day ahead. I am an older sister to lots of kids, so scheduling is very important to me. I would treat your animal just like my own: walks, playtime, relaxation, and feeding. I can also bathe and brush as well. If you can give me a list of what your pets need, I'll make it a priority.

About: I have a unique background with horses, farm animals, and dogs that want to walk all day in the forest. I grew up with cats and dogs my whole life. I have fostered kittens, boarded cats, and stayed with dogs up to 200 pounds. I am available overnight for weekends, nights, and extended periods between Nevada County and Placer County. I usually stay a week or more with fur babies. You can relax knowing I am keeping the utmost care and safety of your animals and home. I want to clarify during our visit if you need care at the 2-hour, 4-hour, or 6-hour interval beyond the overnight stay of 7 pm to 7am. I am currently available most days and nights due to my online graduate program. Communication is key! I will send daily pictures or updates. For best prevention, talking about the details with the owner and ground rules produces the best results. Topics will include where the pet feels most comfortable such a calm spaces or crating procedures. I make sure to go over emergency contacts and preferred clinics. Also, I keep a clean environment that ensures the safety of pets for food handling.

About: I’ve taken care of pets of every kind since I was a kid. From dogs and cats to birds and turtles. Animals have always been a magical part of my life. Weekly animals are a huge part of my life. From caring for my own, to walking dogs and watching animals while their families are away. We live in a neighborhood that is very close to lots of great trails for hiking. My dog Abby loves making friends as do my kids.

“Malique has watched my pets twice now, and I’ll never book with anyone else! I have 3 frogs and a fish and a cat she did an amazing job caring for. I was so nervous since the frogs needed frozen food and water changes (and my fish is a bit blind). She did absolutely amazing and definitely has a ton of knowledge about all kinds of animals! My kitty really loves her as well. She’s also extremely responsive to texts/ calls and sent pictures while I was out of town. I even had a last minute booking this weekend she made time for! Thank you so much for caring for my babies!”


About: I have had my own pets starting at a very young age, trained, rescued, volunteered at pet foundations and charities, and helped my old vet before he retired in Las Vegas for many years. Animals are my passion! I am retired and available now with an open schedule for your needs. I live with my one Beloved Cat who is tolerant of my comings and goings. First and foremost, my way of doing things is to take care of your furry baby the same way you have been doing with the same routine that you already established. This cuts down on the stress level of you being absent. I want your pet to feel loved and safe!

About: I had a very reactive and anxious dog for years. I know that some fur babies require extra love and care and am happy to give yours anything they require. I am very flexible. My full time job is remote so I can be available to stay with your animals or just hop over and check on them. Whichever you prefer. I am very flexible. I can come to where your pets live and stay with them, or I can bring them to my place if you prefer. Or I can just visit them through out the days if you prefer.

My lifestyle is active, and I'm happy to provide whatever exercise that your pet needs, whether that is a long trail hike, or simply walks around the neighborhood. And lots of love and snuggles of course :) I also have extensive horse experience, and limited experience with other livestock, and I'm happy to provide services for those animals as well. I currently work from home and have an extremely flexible schedule, which allows me to work around whatever your pet care needs are.

“I have known him for twenty years, every animal I've went straight to him, purring, tails wagging and followed him everywhere. His animal magnetism is through the roof, even the neighbors animals. He let's the animals go to him. He knows how to follow instructions, read the animal and if he's not early he's late. Whatever amount of time is need to get the job done he makes that the priority.”

She even stayed for two nights to watch my giant, crazy puppy and did a great job at managing that puppy energy all the while keeping my home safe from puppy damage.

She is considerate, aware, and thorough in her care of others. Deb has lifelong experience of loving and caring for animals, and she is most trustworthy.”




Nikita D.
“I have used Nikita as a dog sitter for my 100 pound yellow lab quite some time. She is efficient and so great with him. He loves seeing her and the best thing about her is that she is active and our lab loves that. She loves being outside and so does our 12 year old lab, but she also knows his limits as far as how much is too much. She is so incredibly respectful when she stays over in our home which is a huge relief! We don’t use anyone else when we go on vacations or go out of town for a weekend. I would rate her 100 stars and recommmend her to anyone that’s wants a loving dog sitter.”
