About: I am a registered veterinary technician with over 20 years of experience in the veterinary field. I am trained and comfortable in taking care of special needs pets such as those that take medications (oral and injectable), are recovering from surgery or an illness, need bladder expressions or are disabled. I am trained in pet CPR and first aid and I am very knowledgable about most pet illness and conditions. I also have dog training experience and volunteer to raise and train dogs to become service dogs for disabled people. I am available to take care of dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, birds, reptiles, fish and other small animals. I also have lots of experience taking care of horses. Overnight house sitting is continuous care of your pets in your home from about 7 PM- 7 AM. I do work during the day at a veterinary hospital so I’m not usually available to stay at your house during the day. Dog Boarding is 24 hour continuous care of your pets at my house and includes 1-2 walks per day and lots of playtime. I prefer crate trained dogs or dogs that are comfortable being left alone for 1-2 hours at a time while I drop off and pick up my daughter from school or run errands. Drop off and pick up times are between 7 AM and 8 PM. Dogs must be friendly with other dogs and kids. Dogs must be able to sleep independently without a human close by (humans sleep upstairs and dogs sleep downstairs). Dogs must be spayed or neutered and fully vaccinated unless they are still a puppy. Drop in visits are 30-60 minute visits at your home and include walking, feeding, medications and playtime. I’m usually available between 6-7 AM and 6-8 PM for drop in visits. Please contact me for more information. I would love to meet you and your pets. I work at a veterinary hospital three days a week (Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays) so I’m not available for midday drop in visits on those days. My husband works from home full time so dogs boarding at our house will always have someone supervising them. We have a fenced yard and our house is dog proofed. We have baby gates to keep dogs out of certain areas of the house.

“Fawnn and her adorable children have been so wonderful with walking Tatertot. She's taken the stress out of worrying about leaving him alone while we work. She keeps me updated with each walk and I love all of the pictures!”

About: I have always had a variety of pets from fish, to cats, to dogs and everything in between. I started pet sitting in college for families who would leave during the winter months and couldn't bring their elderly dogs with them. I loved being able to be with their pets and be a reliable presence while their owners were gone. My family and I love animals and love taking care of pets when their owners are away! I am a stay at home mom, so I am home most of the day to be able to take care of your furry friend! I have a fenced yard, and a medium sized dog to keep your pet company while you are away. We also love to go on walks around the neighborhood/close by trails.

About: 7 years experience with my crazy husky! Have always loved Dogs, and have rescued many dogs and cats! Worked p/t at a vet and live in a house in Oakley with a fenced big backyard. My kids are full grown now, but we always had dogs around when they were growing up too. We play with our husky a lot and treat her like our family because she is. I am currently working part-time with a very flexible schedule. 45 years experience with caring for a variety of animals, specially doggos! Puppies welcome too! I have a home with a nice fenced in yard. We walk our Husky daily, and live just 2 minutes from a park. Dog friendly home, non smoking.
About: Animals have always been my greatest passion and purpose. I’ve spent my entire life caring for, rehabilitating, and loving animals of all kinds — from energetic puppies and curious kittens to seniors and special-needs rescues who require patience, understanding, and expert care. I have extensive experience in animal rehabilitation, including administering medication, performing life-saving procedures, supporting post-surgery recovery, and managing both physical and behavioral issues. Over the years, I’ve cared for countless animals with conditions such as arthritis, allergies, anxiety, collapsing tracheas, and other age-related or chronic illnesses. My background has equipped me with strong knowledge in pet illness prevention, senior care, physical therapy, and behavioral management. I currently care for multiple rescue animals and understand that every pet has their own story, needs, and comfort level. I approach each one with compassion, respect, and a calm, confident energy that helps them feel secure and loved. I’m also experienced with administering oral and topical medications, wound care, specialized diets, and gentle rehabilitation exercises to help pets heal and thrive. In my community, I’ve earned the nickname “The Dog & Cat Whisperer” because of my natural ability to connect with even the most timid or strong-willed animals. I’m proud to say I’ve never had an unhappy client — I go above and beyond to ensure both pets and their people feel completely comfortable and cared for. You can trust that your beloved pets will be treated like family in my care. Their health, safety, and happiness are always my top priorities. I’m known for being professional, dependable, and exceptionally attentive — and I truly adore every animal I meet. If you have any questions, special requests, or unique needs for your pets, please don’t hesitate to reach out. I’m always happy to tailor my care to fit your pet’s personality and routine. Because to me, this isn’t just pet sitting — it’s heart work. ❤️🐾 Caring for animals IS my everyday life — it’s simply what I do and love. My days naturally revolve around feeding, walking, playtime, and providing care for my own pets, the rescues I look after and my clients. I maintain a structured schedule to ensure every animal gets the attention, exercise, and affection they need, whether it’s early morning feedings, medication routines, or evening cuddle time. Since I work primarily from home and plan my week around my pet clients, I’m able to give each animal plenty of one-on-one time and consistent care. My daily rhythm already includes everything from outdoor time and enrichment activities to grooming and wellness checks, so integrating additional clients into my routine feels seamless and natural. Simply put — animals are my routine, and their well-being shapes my days and weeks in the best possible way. Whether a pet is staying with me or I’m caring for them in their own home, I make it my mission to keep their environment calm, safe, and full of love. I follow each pet’s regular schedule as closely as possible — including feeding times, walks, medication routines, and favorite comfort habits — so they feel secure and stress-free. In my home, pets enjoy a clean, cozy, and peaceful space with plenty of attention, enrichment, and supervision. I keep things structured yet relaxed, ensuring every animal gets the balance of play, rest, and affection that suits their personality. When I’m in a client’s home, I treat it with the same respect I’d want for my own. I take time to learn every pet’s individual needs and quirks — from shy cats who prefer quiet companionship to energetic pups who need extra playtime — and provide care that’s tailored specifically to them. Above all, I care for each animal as if they were my own. Their happiness, safety, and comfort always come first.
About: I’ve had experiences with all kinds of both puppies and dogs since 2012 and cats/kittens since 2023!! I have done my all to love and care for each and every one of them and I intend to do the same with your pets as well!! :) Currently I work at a haunted house for this Halloween season so daytime care would be preferred! However as of November my schedule is completely free. So I can dog walk, dog sit in both yours or my home, as well as for kittens/cats too!! All Day and all night I will be free to watch over them :) I currently have two kittens in my home as well as two dogs in my backyard. All of them super friendly to new pets!! (once they get acquainted and comfortable) My dogs are pretty small and my kitties are just now reaching 1 year!!
About: I have taken care of puppies, dogs, kittens, cats, small mammals, fish, reptiles, birds and parrots in my lifetime. I have adopted and fostered and foster failed. I have several currently that are rescues that require daily medications. I love all animals and I have had everything from a 3.5 lb Chihuahua, to 180 pound mastiff- size does not bother me. I took a break from working in information technology to take care of my mom. Now that my mom is in a home, my schedule is open and flexible to take care of the fur babies. I am always violent and making sure the environment is safe and friendly for the fur babies. I usually walk at local park and if it’s a drop in stay within the residence.
About: My family is a pet family through & through! There’s never been a moment where we didn’t have animals in the house! Especially dogs. I have taken care of all kinds of breeds. From big breeds like Great Danes and German Shepherds, to little breeds like Yorkies and Terrier mixes. I’m no stranger to anxious or wild dogs either, so I’m very patient to any temperament your dog may have. I currently have a german shepherd and a malinois mix of my own :) Currently I’m a college student but I’m doing online classes only this semester so I have a pretty free schedule! I commute to Sacramento every week but the days I head there are very flexible and can be changed based on when you need me! I cannot take any animal into my home, I have an anxious dog who doesn’t take well to newcomers! However, I am more than happy to stop by your home to take care of your fur-baby as needed! :)
About: Growing up in Alaska I was blessed with caring for all sorts of animals. Now living in California I have been able to broaden that passion. I am experienced in caring for animals from birds and reptiles to bunnies and hamsters, cats and dogs and everyone in between. I look forward to meeting you and your fur or furLESS babies! I am currently available to provide care daily or weekly. As a stay at home mom, my 1 and a half year old and I are available as needed for drop ins and walks. Each pet and their needs are different. I take pride in carefully taking detailed notes for each pet and their needs as well as your homes needs.
About: Hi, I’m Melissa! I’m a lifelong animal lover with a soft spot for wagging tails, wet noses, and happy paws. I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets, and I treat every dog like my own—with love, patience, and plenty of belly rubs. I’m currently a proud pet parent to two furry friends: Rocket the cat and Harvey, my sweet mini dachshund. Between the two of them, I’ve got experience balancing different pet personalities and making sure everyone feels safe and cared for. I also have experience with dogs of all sizes and temperaments—whether your pup is high-energy or prefers a calm stroll, I’ll tailor the walk to their needs. I’m dependable, communicative, and always prioritize your dog’s safety and happiness. Let’s make your pup’s day a great one—one walk at a time! Pet care is a natural part of my everyday life—I already care for my own pets (a mini dachshund named Harvey and a cat named Rocket), so adding more furry friends to the mix fits right into my routine. I’m an early riser and a planner by nature, which means I have time blocked throughout the week specifically for dog walks, playtime, and check-ins. I’m available most weekdays and weekends, and I’m flexible with scheduling to accommodate your pet’s needs. In both my home and my client’s, I make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I follow any specific instructions you provide and prioritize routines that help your pet feel at ease—whether it’s sticking to feeding times, administering medication, or just making sure their favorite toy is nearby. I always keep water fresh, environments clean, and give them plenty of love and attention. Communication is key, so I provide regular updates and photos so you know how your pet is doing while you’re away.
“Tracey responded right away when I messaged her which was so great because I was leaving the next day and was desperate for someone to walk my little buddy. She was fantastic!! She came and met me and Troy first, which I felt was important for my dog as well as for me. She gave me updates and pictures of my dog on his walks. I was a little apprehensive using a service like this as I never have before, but I will definitely be seeking out Tracey again to take care of my buddy, Troy. She was the best!”


About: Hello Brentwood! I’m new to the area but bring years of trusted dog-sitting experience—and a deep love for pups of all ages. I started caring for other dogs after realizing something important: anyone can watch my dogs, but not everyone can love them the way they need to be loved. That’s when I knew I wanted to offer the kind of care that’s not just safe and reliable—but affectionate, calm, and truly nurturing. I’m a full-time dog mom to two sweet 10-year-old girls, Oreo and Brownie. They’ve taught me everything about patience, connection, and comfort—and I bring those lessons to every dog I care for. Our home? It’s a dog’s home first. With an open, single-level layout, plenty of cozy spots, and a shaded California room with outdoor fans, it’s designed with your pup’s comfort in mind—especially during Brentwood’s warm days. Whether lounging indoors or cooling off under the covered patio, your dog will have plenty of space to feel at ease. I welcome small to medium-sized dogs of all ages, and offer both short and long-term stays. I’m happy to share daily updates, photos, and arrange a meet-and-greet to ensure it’s the right fit. Whether it’s your pup’s first time away or their tenth, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and right at home. I work from home, so pet care is part of my daily rhythm. I usually take my own two dogs for a walk early in the morning while it’s still cool. During the hotter parts of the day, they enjoy supervised time in our shaded backyard with fans and fresh water. If weather allows, we go for another walk around sunset. We also have a dog park nearby, and if time permits, I love taking them there for some extra play and sniff time. I always adjust activities based on the weather and the comfort of each dog in my care. At my home, dogs are treated like part of the family and are always kept within sight and never left alone for long. I offer a calm, clean, and climate-controlled environment where they feel safe and loved. My two senior pups are mellow and used to having doggy guests around. With plenty of open indoor space and a well-shaded backyard, I make sure each dog gets just the right balance of comfort, fresh air, and supervision—adjusted to their needs and the weather.
About: With over 25 years experience caring for dogs of many breeds, sizes, and temperaments, I provide calm, consistent, and loving care tailored to your pup’s needs. From high-energy play to slow strolls with seniors, I understand how to read canine body language and create a safe, happy environment. Having fur babies of my own, pet care is a natural part of my daily life. My routine is built around providing consistent, loving attention and prioritize routines, playtime and companionship throughout the day. With a flexible schedule and years of experience, I’m able to adapt to each pet’s needs. Safety, care and trust are my top priorities. I follow your instructions closely to keep routines consistent and stress-free. I maintain a clean, secure environment-always checking doors, gates, and surrounding areas to ensure pets are safe at all times. I respect your space, will treat your home with care and keep you updated with messages and photos. My experienced approach builds trust quickly with both pets and their humans-creating a familiar, relaxed setting where your fur baby can thrive while you’re away.
About: I have experience with my own dog since My childhood. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets. I have had the pleasure of caring for dogs for many years. I have a deep love and understanding for these wonderful animals, and have always found great joy in providing them with the care and attention they need. I am available seven days a week right now. I am home all the time. I am planning to do rover and take care of pets full time. I have big fence yard where pets can play, have fun and exercise. They will be in constant supervision and feed in the time they need.
About: I’ve cared for pets my whole life and treat every dog or cat like family. I’m reliable, gentle, and experienced with all ages and energy level, including seniors! Whether it’s walks, drop-ins, or overnight care, I always make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved. Regular updates and lots of TLC guaranteed! Also can help with training in most areas! I’m currently home full time besides drop off and pick up for my 10 yr old son so I’m available to make sure your pet is both safe and comfortable. I care for pets like they’re my own, including my friendly 2.5-year-old Lab/Boxer mix named Zoey. In my home, pets get a safe, relaxed space with supervised play and plenty of love. In your home, I stick closely to your pet’s routine and make sure they feel secure, happy, and well cared for at all times.
About: I am a huge animal lover! I have a big heart, empathy and compassion for all our furry friends. I have lots of personal experience caring for both cats & dogs in my own household and for others. I have had rescues all my life since I was 4 years old. The last 12 years I have devoted my time caring for my own chronically ill dog, Gizmo. Sadly she passed 11 months ago at 15 years old. I have two big cats, Dink & Zebe that I spoil and adore when I care for them. After Gizmo passed, I rescued another dog, Marzi. She is nuerologically impaired being a distemper survivor. She takes most of my time and attention to help care for her. I think it will always be in me to want to help and care for animals. I work from home full time and would love to get out to be with some other animals between the days. I work from home full time with my own business so I have a pretty flexible schedule. I do care for my neurologically impaired dog while I’m home but would love to walk and do drop ins for other animals during the day. Helping animals feels like it’s meant to be and I want to incorporate that into my life when I can. I have a fenced in patio with a gate when outdoors. I walk my own dog around the neighborhood there’s lots of trees and grass and sidewalks. When I walk I always have a harness and leash, poop bags, and treats.
