My current schedule is quite open, so any time between 9am and 9pm is available for walking dogs or for extended hours at a dog park! I am unable to board any dogs at the moment but am able to make time to keep your pups company while you're away or at work!

This was our first experience using Rover.com, and we couldn't have been happier! Our sitter, Elaine, is terrific! Not only did she capture amazing pictures of our two Bengal cats, she even managed to win over Shiloh, who normally runs and hides under the bed whenever a stranger comes into our home. My husband and I could hardly believe our eyes when we watched the video of Shiloh letting Elaine pet her. It was nice, too, to come home to a clean and tidy area where the food dishes are as our cats always like dropping their food on the floor before eating. I highly recommend Elaine.

About: I have professionally worked with dogs for a near decade from training, boarding, and rescuing. I’ve worked with dogs of all sizes and behaviors and have always had all types of animals in my home. If your dog is reactive or your senior cat would prefer to be fed and left alone, I am willing to accommodate to the needs of every animal. If asked of, I also am confident in pet grooming and returning your pup clean. I would like to clearly state as well I am in no way a licensed vet technician or dog groomer, however I do have plenty of experience in bathing and I can promise your bestfriend will be returned in great conditions! I have a fairly flexible schedule- I am unavailable on Tuesdays 100% of the time until at least June and otherwise try my best to meet your needs. My priority is to spend most of my time during my house sitting stays actually in the home with your animals. Please reach out with dates and times, and we can work together to arrange a preferred schedule for your pet! I have quite a few clients from outside of rover and can provide additional references upon request.

About: For the past 2.5 years, I’ve had the joy of caring for dogs and cats of all ages, from energetic puppies and kittens to sweet senior companions. My pet care experience has taught me that every animal has their own personality, needs, and routine, and I always take the time to understand and respect that. Whether it’s playtime, walks, feeding schedules, or simply providing comfort and companionship, I make sure each pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for while their family is away. I have a pretty open schedule, so I am flexible, I will try my best to update my account when I am away to let others know. I always make sure my animals usual rest areas are cleaned up and made comfortable for them. In someone else’s home it’s all about respecting a space that isn’t yours it’s theirs. Making them feel comfortable with you being in their space with them

About: Tailored pet care with over 30 years of experience. I provide a warm and nurturing environment, ensuring that you and your pet feel loved and protected. I work full-time in a position that offers the flexibility to work from home, allowing me to split my time between the office and the comfort of my own space. On average, I work from home about 50% of the time, which gives me a great balance of productivity and personal time. My office is just a short drive away, so I’m never far from home and can easily make the commute whenever needed. This arrangement allows me to be present for both work and home life, ensuring I can stay connected while also enjoying the benefits of a flexible schedule. I live on a peaceful, country property spanning three acres, surrounded by nature and wide-open spaces. The entire property is securely fenced, ensuring a safe and enclosed environment where your pets can roam freely and explore to their hearts' content. With plenty of room to run, play, and enjoy the outdoors, it's an ideal setting for furry companions to stretch their legs and soak up the fresh air. Whether it's chasing after a ball or simply lounging in the sun, your pets will have all the space they need to feel at home.

About: I began Pet Sitting professionally when I was 16, but I have been caring for friend's and neighbor's pets as long as I can remember. I have also been a vet tech and managed a Doggie Daycare. My love is animals and I love working with them. I have wide availability and can accommodate almost any scheduling need. Pet Sitting is my job, not a side gig, so my calendar is committed. I intend to keep your pet's routine as close to regular as possible. I will work with you to determine what your pet will need while you're gone. I am reliable and trustworthy, and I'm Licensed and Insured for even more peace of mind. The safety and security of your pets and home are imperative while you're away. Having a sitter come to your home can make your home appear occupied and deter crime.

Ruth took excellent care of our 3 kitties! I love that she was very thorough and took the time to let us know in detail everything she did with each visit. Although our kitties are very shy and hid under the bed when she came over, she still made sure to check on them and snap a pic so we could see their glowing eyes under the bed. ? We would definitely recommend Ruth and will be happy to have her care for our kitties again. ?

Lainey understood how important this was for us, and she clearly cares very much for the animals in her care. Communication was fantastic right from the start and throughout our trip. Lainey went above and beyond our expectations. and we would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone who is looking for someone trustworthy to treat your pets as family. Thank you Lainey!

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my reliability, attention to detail, and genuine care for each pet as an individual. I take the time to learn and follow a pet’s routine exactly so they feel safe and comfortable, whether they’re a puppy, adult, or senior. I’m patient and confident working with puppies, including basic training reinforcement, potty routines, and leash manners. I’m also attentive to senior pets, providing gentle care, slower-paced activity, medication support if needed, and close monitoring for any changes in behavior or health. I communicate clearly with owners and treat every pet as if they were my own. Pet care fits into my routine through consistent daily habits and a small weekly reset. I take care of feeding and fresh water every day, along with making time for exercise, bathroom breaks, and attention so my pet stays healthy and engaged. I also do quick health checks to make sure everything seems normal. Once a week, I focus on cleaning, grooming, and restocking supplies. Overall, it’s built into my day in a way that feels manageable and routine rather than overwhelming. I care for pets by following a consistent, attentive routine that prioritizes their safety, comfort, and well-being. In my home or a client’s home, I make sure pets are fed on schedule, always have fresh water, and get the appropriate exercise and bathroom breaks they need. I provide companionship and enrichment through play, attention, and positive interaction, while also monitoring their behavior and health for any changes. I follow any specific instructions given by the owner, including medication, feeding preferences, and routines, to ensure pets feel comfortable and secure in their environment

About: I have been dog sitting for a few years now and I love it! I love animals and I love spending time with them :). I’ve dog sat for puppies, and even all the way to senior dogs. I’m willing to do over nights as well! Im currently taking a gap year so I have all the time in the world to care for your animals! I love walking them and if they’re the energetic type then I’ll take them on a run with me :) i love spending time with them and making sure they’re comfortable without their family around. I don’t offer to care for pets in my home since I already have a dog at home and he doesn’t always love other dogs.

About: I am a middle-school English teacher in El Dorado County! I am looking for opportunities to earn some extra money on the side, and after a long and exhausting day at school, I’d love to decompress and give your fur babies all of my love and attention. Aside from having the qualities of a teacher of teenagers, I am a very responsible and patient person running on a consistently empty social battery with many evenings and weekends coming up to spend with your furry/scale-y/feathery loved ones!! I have experience with dogs and cats of all sizes, ages, personalities, and medical needs. My experience with other miscellaneous pets is little, but I am open to figuring it out! I have been a pet-sitter on Rover for a very long time, but have been on and off with availability due to moving and career shifts, explaining the gaps in my Rover resume. I have some future dates blocked out for fall and winter, but please message me with any inquiries that land around these dates so that we can figure something out! I am a full-time teacher in El Dorado, commuting from my apartment in Cameron Park. I am typically at work from 8am-4pm, but have flexibility in being able to leave a bit earlier if necessary. I work remotely on most Fridays, but can’t guarantee that I won’t be pulled in for a half-day of meetings and PD. Weekends and afternoons are completely free, if given enough time in advance to rearrange any plans previously made. I am extra careful to check on gates and door/window locks. I am used to skid-dish animals that attempt prison breaks! My approach to house environment is to replicate as much normalcy to the pet as possible.

Brittni was great with my senior kitty, Toby. He let her pet him at the meet and greet, and looked up from his nap under the blankets when she dropped by to take care of him. Toby usually runs and hides when people drop by but he decided that Brittni is his friend.
