About: I have always loved animals since I was little and have had various furry friends throughout my life. I have cared for dogs from miniature Poodles to German Shepherds; each animal has their own unique personality and I look forward to meeting them all. I have embraced retirement, so I have lots of time to spend with your furry family. From walking your neighborhood, exploring various trails, or just play time at the park or home, I will give your pet the love and attention I would my own pets. I currently have two cats, who are indoor only. They are played with daily, although half the time they just sleep in the sun. My current home project is to build them a catio so they can sleep there too.

About: Ever since I was a little girl, I’ve always been surrounded by animals! My next-door neighbor would trust me for weeks at a time to take care of her old cat, and I would always take care of my pets when my parents weren’t home. Over the past year and a half, I worked at a local veterinary clinic as a veterinary assistant! I have experience with dogs and cats of all ages. I’ve decided to take on pet-sitting full time while I finish college with my career goal being a veterinarian! I also own a leopard gecko, giving me experience handling exotic reptiles! Whether your pets need frequent potty breaks, walks, play-dates, or any sort of medication, I’m your gal! Your pet’s safety and well-being will always be my top priority! I’m currently unemployed, and about to finish my college semester- giving me of the time in the world to work with you and your pets! My availability will always be flexible and I will be attentive to any of your needs. I live with one (soon to be two) dogs! My current dog is very sweet and sociable- she loves to make new friends! I’m used to taking big and small dogs on walks, and am more than willing to take your pet on a playdate with mine! I can crate your animal, prepare special meals, and clean up after them if they’re used to going potty in your backyard! Same thing applies to cats and their litter-boxes! I will always be sure to make sure your pets are comfortable while you’re away.

About: I grew up with 2 dogs and 2 cats always in the house. I deeply enjoy volunteering to walk and care for animals. I am a runner and can have dogs accompany me easily! During the school year I frequently walk dogs at the Portland Dog Rescue association up in Oregon. I have worked at the CSD in the recreational sports section , where I practiced time management, along with people/pet management. Overall, I love animals and am an extremely active person! My schedule is very flexible, I can accommodate any time or request. I'm free everyday day from 7am-10pm for walks and check-ins. I'm willing to work earlier or later upon request! I walk my own dog at least once a day for about an hour or so. I clean the litter box with diligence and love to give animals baths when they get dirty (bathing is needed most of the time after a trip to the dog park). At night I love to cuddle with my kitties and watch a movie.

About: From my family dog growing up, taking care of roommates’ dogs, and now my own sweet Pomeranian, I love spending time with dogs of all ages. My own dog has dietary restrictions and takes medication so I understand that every dog has unique needs. I would love to get to know your dog! I currently have plenty of time to take care of your pets! I’m available for drop in visits and walks between 7am and 8pm Monday-Friday. I am very diligent with pet safety both in the home and out on walks. I can accommodate safety requests such as crating as needed.

About: I have always been lucky enough to have a dog growing up. I have looked after my neighbors pets multiple times as well. I am very comfortable around all types. As for cats I have never personally taken care of any but I do volunteer at the shelter that has both cats and dogs. When I come to take care of, play with, and walk your dogs I will dedicate my time to loving them and treat them as if they were my own. I have one family dog named Charles. He is a Lagotto Romagnolo and he truly is my bestfriend. I am interning at an accounting firm and I work Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday from 8 to 5 pm. I am free to pet sit these days too after 5. Since I sit at a desk all day, I have a lot of energy leftover and love going on walks and playing with my dog in the evening. Hopefully in the future yours too!! I currently have a dog and he is a big part of my life. I love exercising and everyone I do cardio he joins me for my walks. He loves playing fetch so I am used to that. I also just love a pets affection and love. I constantly walk my dog, take him to the dog park (even though all he does is sit in the shade), I feed him every night and give him infinite kisses!

About: Healthcare professional that loves to care for pets as much as people. I enjoy meeting new furry friends and helping to ensure they are safe and well cared for while their humans are away. I have a pretty flexible schedule currently that allows for daily pet visits and or in home care. Please provide the details of what your current needs are for your pet. I treat all animals with respect and provide a safe space for them to explore, play, and enjoy their time in my care. I appreciate the rewards of the joy they bring to my day.

About: I’ve taken care of many dogs, big or small consistently for the past couple years. I love to be active with dogs and would have no problem walking them and taking them out for long periods of time, as well as a calm day in. I’m currently just a part time student and aside from other small hobbies I am always available for any work needed! I am also always available for overnight stays too. Back at home I was always surrounded by dogs and I am used to all different types. With your dog I’ll always take them out for a walk, constantly doing different activities and that’ll come with plenty of photo updates aswell!

“Cole was amazing with our beagle puppy, Cowboy. Cole was super communicative and friendly, and he took Cowboy on a long walk at the nearby dog park. Cole has dogs of his own, so he has a wealth of knowledge on how to train and take care of our dog. Would highly recommend Cole!”

About: I grew up with dogs and cared for them until I moved away to college. I have cared for neighbors dogs when they went on vacation. I am retired so my schedule is pretty flexible, but I will usually need notice on the prior day. I am not afraid of the cooler, early winter morning temperatures, which bigger dogs or those with thicker coats may prefer. I also like the warmer summer late afternoons, but we will likely need nearby shady grass or dirt as the asphalt or concrete sidewalks will burn your dog's paws. It is a tremendous honor and responsibility to have someone trust me with their pet. It takes years to build trust, but only a second to destroy it. It is so great to see so many responsible pet owners here in Folsom. Let me help you with this when you need it.

“Bailey is super communicative and an awesome dog walker!! I had to find someone ASAP and she was super accommodating. I really appreciate her updates and timeliness. I highly recommend her services!!!”

About: I have always taken care of friends/family pets and or housesitting, and started expanding across the community! Am happy to help with whatever task is needed! Currently going to school and am open otherwise! Would love to fill the schedule up to help others out with any pet or house needs! I can very easily work with both dogs and cats, and will always respect one’s home and do whatever is necessary to keep things clean and tidy.

About: I have been actively taking care of pets my whole life. I love animals and treat them like my own children. I have a 10 year old daughter who is on her way to become a vet and wife who loves pets just as much! I work from home and can accommodate your schedule at anytime needed. I would be happy to make sure that your pet has the best experience. I have a fully fenced yard on a quiet street. I allow pets to use any furniture they would like to make themselves a home

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life. Growing up on a farm gave me an early, deep appreciation for animal care, and I’ve spent the last 40 years personally raising everything from dogs and cats to birds, rodents, and reptiles. Having cared for pets of all shapes, sizes, and temperaments, I understand that every animal has its own unique personality and routine. Today, my home is kept lively by my own two dogs and two cats, so I am completely in tune with the daily rhythms, patience, and love it takes to keep multiple pets happy and thriving. I am currently between jobs. I recently left a long-time career in project management and am looking forward to doing something more rewarding. I am currently not bound to a rigid 9-to-5 office routine. This means I have ample availability for midday walks, flexible drop-in windows, and extended quality time to sit and keep your pets company so they never feel lonely. Your pets and your home are in totally safe, reliable hands with me! As a long-time dog and cat owner, I’m great at reading animal body language and making sure walks and playtime stay fun and stress-free. I'm naturally super detail-oriented, so I'll strictly stick to your feeding schedules, medication routines, and any house rules you have. You can count on me to keep your home secure, keep your pets happy, and send you plenty of fun photo updates along the way so you never have to worry.

“Barbara has a very Calm disposition and is very good with Mowgli. He enjoyed his walk with her and seems calm when around her. She is very prompt and respectful. And communicates well. We will be definitely asking her to take our Mowgli for a walk again. Thanks Barbara!!”

About: I have owned pets since I was little. I have taken care of family and friends' animals for over 10 years now. I have 1 dog - her name is Kona, and 3 cats - Doug, Nola, and Simba. I am currently fostering 2 bearded dragons, 2 leopard geckos, and 1 rat. I will be your best friend(s) - second best friend I am available early mornings and in the evenings as well as all day Saturday and Sunday. I will make your pet smile! In my home, I allocate specific times of the day for pet-related activities such as feeding, walks, playtime, and grooming. My pets thrive on routine, and setting fixed times as it helps both me and my pets build trust. When offering pet care services, whether in my home or your home, the approach and considerations can vary to ensure the pets are happy, safe, and healthy. Here's a breakdown of how to approach pet care in both settings: In mt Home Prepare a Safe Space: Ensure my home is pet-proofed, removing any hazards or toxic substances pets can chew on or swallow. Have a dedicated space where the pet can feel secure and comfortable. Establish a Routine: Try to maintain the pet's usual feeding, walking, and playtime routine to minimize stress and anxiety. Provide Adequate Exercise: Depending on the pet's energy level and breed, provide appropriate exercise through walks, play sessions, or access to a secure backyard. Socialization: If you have pets, introduce them slowly and carefully to ensure they get along with the visiting pet. Monitor their interactions. Personal Attention: Spend quality time with each pet to provide affection and mental stimulation. This can include grooming, cuddling, and interactive play. Health Care: Administer any required medications and be prepared to handle emergencies by knowing the location of the nearest vet. In your Home Respect the Space: I treat the client's home with respect, ensuring it's as clean (or cleaner) when they return. This includes properly disposing of pet waste. Stick to the Pet’s Routine: Maintain the pet's normal feeding, walking, and playtime schedule to provide a sense of stability. Ensure Security: Always double-check that doors and gates are securely locked after you enter or exit the premises to prevent the pet from escaping. Daily Updates: Keep the pet owner updated with daily texts, photos, or videos to reassure them that their pet is in good hands. Emergency Preparedness: Know the location of the nearest veterinary hospital and have the pet owner's contact information readily available in case of emergencies. Home Care Tasks: If agreed upon, perform additional tasks like bringing in mail, watering plants, or other simple chores to help maintain the home.

About: I’m new to Rover but I’ve grown up around animals and love to spend time with them! I have a German shepherd and I’ve taught her everything she knows from Sit, lay down, speak, and even do a figure 8 through my legs. I also have fostered kittens every summer since I was 10 😁 I’m a full time college student from August-May but am pretty free during the summer and can fit to pretty much any availability Just leave me some instructions on how you would care for your animal and I will follow it to a T! I can assure you your pet will get lots of loving and belly rubs (:
