“Brooklyn has been walking Maggie for a week now and Maggie loves Brooklyn! Brooklyn is prompt to respond to requests and easy to communicate with. Maggie will be 14 this year and she requires accommodations and special handling. Brooklyn has demonstrated compassion and understanding with my detailed instructions. She takes care to pay attention to Maggie's energy and gait and provides updates on her activities. Brooklyn is trustworthy and I feel comfortable with giving her access to my home when I'm away. Thank you Brooklyn!”

About: Hi! My name is Kimya, and animals have always been a huge part of my life. I volunteer at shelters and I have owned and cared for dogs my entire life, from small to large breeds as well as bully breeds. I understand firsthand the responsibility, patience, and consistency that goes into providing excellent care. In addition to caring for my own pets, my experience consists of volunteering at a local animal shelter, where I’ve worked with dogs of different sizes, ages, temperaments, and backgrounds. This experience has helped me become comfortable handling everything from energetic puppies to shy, nervous, or misunderstood dogs that need a little extra patience and structure. Over the years, I have also gained experience caring for dogs with medical and behavioral needs. While I am not a veterinarian, I am attentive and knowledgeable when it comes to monitoring changes in appetite, energy level, mobility, skin and coat condition, digestive health, and overall well-being. I understand how important it is to notice when something isn’t quite right and communicate with owners promptly. I believe every pet is an individual, and I take the time to learn their routine, personality, and needs. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playtime, sticking to a familiar schedule, or simply having company while you’re away, my goal is to help them feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I treat every animal in my care as if they were my own and understand the trust that comes with leaving a pet with someone else. You can expect dependable care, regular updates, and the peace of mind that your pet is in capable hands. I am available for walks, drop-ins, house sitting, and boarding depending on the dates needed. I prioritize maintaining your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible and will provide updates and photos throughout their stay. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, including large breeds, puppies, seniors, and dogs with special behavioral or medical considerations. I carefully follow feeding instructions, medication schedules, exercise requirements, and any household rules you have in place. I have a fenced yard and can separate dogs if needed to ensure everyone remains safe and comfortable. I take the time to learn each pet’s personality, triggers, and routine so I can provide individualized care.

“Derek was amazing with my spastic 1 yr old Golden Retriever! She always came back worked out and tired and a huge smile on her face. Thank you for taking such great care of my Gemma!”

About: Hey there! My nickname is actually Maks, and I'm glad to meet you. I have taken care of dogs and cats since around 12 years old. I’ve looked after pets of friends and neighbors, and I feel confident working with dogs of all sizes. I am comfortable with more anxious dogs as I have had one myself. I am also very experienced with cats, I have two at home! I know how hard it can be to leave your little ones even just for the day, especially if they lean on the anxious side, but I hope that I can provide a gentle and loving presence for your babies. Finding reliable pet care can be stressful which is why I value transparency and clear communication. I will provide updates at every visit, and I will do my best to answer any questions you have as soon as possible. Your pet's safety and wellbeing is my main priority. Looking forward to talking with you! I am currently a part-time student working on getting into nursing school. I am completely free Monday, Wednesday, Friday and most weekends. I am flexible when it comes to schedules, and I would love to communicate with owners to set something up more long term. I could do daily walks, and I can do daily drop-in visits as well. I don't have space to house dogs at my house currently because I have two cats at home.

About: I’m an active, highly disciplined professional athlete with years of experience caring for dogs & cats of all breeds and sizes. My background in elite athletics means I have the stamina for long, engaging walks, active exercise, and rigorous attention to routine and safety. Whether your pet needs high energy cardio or a calm, structured stroll around the neighborhood, I prioritize their wellbeing, safety, and happiness every step of the way. I treat every pet with the same level of focus and care I bring to my daily training. As a full time athlete managing a flexible training schedule, I have structured availability for midday, early morning, and evening walks. Dog walking fits seamlessly into my active daily routine. I pride myself on prompt communication, strict punctuality, and flexibility to meet your schedule so you always have peace of mind while you're away or at work. Safety and accountability are my highest priorities. During walks or house visits, your dog will always be securely on leash, closely monitored, and kept safe from external hazards. I pay close attention to heat, hydration, and body language to ensure your pet stays comfortable throughout our time together. I follow all home entry instructions meticulously and provide regular photo updates after every walk so you know your pet is safe, secure, and well cared for.

About: Hi I’m Kaeli, your pet’s new best friend! Thank you for stopping by. I’ve grown up with small pets and dogs and have 5 years of professional animal care experience working at an animal shelter. I’ve been petsitting professionally for about 2 years and love the relationships with families I’ve built. I’ve taken care of and fostered puppies, kittens, senior dogs, guinea pigs, rabbits… you name it! I am comfortable with pretty much anything with or without legs! 🙂 I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate your family’s schedule and pet routines. Whatever you need, just ask! We can figure it out. My own household is a brat pack of rescues—2 dogs, 3 cats, and 2 rabbits. They are spoiled… Some would say too spoiled 😆 While I’m not home with them, my husband holds down the fort. I’m confident your pets will feel safe, comfortable, and loved in my care. I treat them like they’re my nieces and nephews. Please don’t hesitate to reach out—I’d love to see if we would be a good fit.

I make an effort to go above and beyond to make sure your pets are well taken care of and safe <3 Open to meet ups first or chatting on the phone to get acquainted and ensure alignment.

About: Hi there! 🐾 I genuinely love animals! I've spent the past 5 years caring for cats and dogs, including my own pets. I'm comfortable with all kinds of personalities, including shy, energetic, anxious, and reactive pets. I understand that every animal is different, and I'm happy to be patient and let them warm up to me at their own pace. Whether your pet loves going on walks, playing, cuddling, or just having someone nearby, I'm happy to give them the attention and care they need! I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets and your home. I'm big on communication and will gladly send pictures and updates throughout our time together so you know your furry family member is doing well. I'm also comfortable with house sitting, following detailed instructions, and respecting your home and your pet's normal routine. I don't mind cameras in shared spaces, and I want you to feel completely at ease while you're away. My goal is simple: happy pets and peace of mind for you! 🐶🐱🧡 I'm available on both weekdays and weekends! 🐾 I do have a full-time job, but I have flexibility with my schedule and can make adjustments ahead of confirmed bookings. I primarily offer house sitting and dog walking. For overnight stays, I'm happy to stay in a guest room if one is available! Since I live in Orangevale, I'm also open to arranging visits throughout the day and returning to my own home at night, depending on your pet's needs. I'm always happy to talk through expectations and schedules before confirming a booking to make sure we're a great fit! I love keeping pets happy, active, and mentally stimulated! 🐾 For dogs, a typical day might include walks around the neighborhood, playtime with their favorite toys, and plenty of attention and cuddles. If they're comfortable in public spaces and their owner approves, I'm happy to take them to a nearby park for some extra outdoor time! For cats, I love interactive playtime with their favorite toys, giving them pets when they're in the mood, or simply hanging out and keeping them company. I always adjust activities based on each pet's energy level, personality, and routine. Whether they're full of energy or prefer a relaxing day, I'm happy to match their vibe!

“Alex was wonderful! She was great with communication and our pups were excited to be getting the extra exercise. We would definitely use her again in the future.”

About: I trained and took care of most of the day to day with both of the dogs I've had in my life. I also have dog sat for some family friends I work and go to school so this is somewhat of a break and a oppurtunity to work with animals more. Unfortunately my avaiblity depends on how early I am connacted. I believe animals should be treat with as much love and respect as anyone else. Safety is my number one priority above all and then we can have fun.

“Betty walks my dog Lucy and is so great! She's very professional, accommodating and I know Lucy enjoys her time with her so much! I'm so thankful to have such a great dog walker to rely on.”
