Pet Sitting & Drop Ins In Mace Ranch

“Megan was fantastic with my cat Norman. Norman is a diabetic cat who can be aggressive with strangers when they try to give insulin, so it's often tough to find sitters who can manage him. I was so happy with how patient and compassionate Megan was with him. She was extremely reliable and a great communicator, and was able to make sure he got his insulin on time everyday. I would really highly recommend Megan, you can definitely trust her to take great care of your pet!”

“Jessica was the best! I had her watch my kitties for a couple days and just loved her daily updates with all of the pictures. (She takes fab pics btw, made Kale look like a little model😁) My cats were content and relaxed when I got back so I know they were in good hands. When she returned the key to me, she gave me a little package with the nicest note and some cat treats and a cat toy which was SO NICE of her!! Will definitely be booking again, thank you Jessica!”

About: We are excellent dog, cat, bird, poultry, reptile, and fish caretakers as we have raised most of these, and a few years ago, we had a thriving Rover business taking care of folks' animal babies. We can take care of medications if your pet needs: We have administered medicine to most of the animals on our list, including oral medication for a rooster and injections for a snake. We have had some experience in training our current dog as a service animal. While we have not had the chance to care for farm animals on our own, we love them and have had experience being around them (horses, sheep, goats, cows, pigs, alpaca). Animals, plants, gardens, farms, and home-care are all in our wheelhouse and are the foundations to our lives. If you are looking to have your fur baby stay with us, we have a large home with a fenced backyard. Our German Shepherd loves to play with other dogs, and we take him and our guests to local dog parks or fenced fields to play ball and or frisbee. We take care of our guests exactly how we want our pup to be taken care of! I work part time remotely and part time I will need to be in the field. What that means is a lot of the time, I will be in the home, hanging with your furry, feathered, or scaly baby, working on my laptop. During the times I need to work outside of the home, my 19 year old daughter (who has been doing Rover with me since she was 11) will give the best care in my place. I have a thriving Airbnb business in my home for over a decade, so I have a ton of experience and mindset on home-care: I treat other folks' pets and homes as well as I treat my own. I make it point to keep my clients connected via photos and updates. If I am providing boarding in my home, our 4 year old German Shepherd will love to play with your pup. If I am providing sitting in your home, then my pup will stay home unless requested for a playmate in your home.

“Thanks Carmen! It’s so great having someone I can trust with my girl. Thanks for practicing weave on the agility course with her too! I hope we get to see you lots in the future 💕”

About: I have taken care of my family's pets over the years they are are away. I have volunteered at Homeward Bound Animal Rescue in the past that has given me the opportunity to walk and interact with animals. I am a retired veteran and UC Davis undergrad who has extensive time on his hands and able to check in on your pets the majority of time to include when students are out of session in the Winter and Summer breaks I have an attentive eye and demeanor to all types of pets who are in need of feeding, walking, brushing, loving and playing. My cat and I go outside for short walks. This is the type of trust that I have set up with animals.

About: A former UC Davis graduate. I’ve taken care of dogs all my life. I’m a dependable and attentive pet sitter who focuses on creating a calm, low-stress experience tailored to each animal’s personality and routine. I’m especially skilled at reading behavior cues, helping shy or anxious pets feel comfortable, and maintaining consistency with feeding, cleaning, and enrichment. My background in structured, fast-paced environments has made me highly organized and reliable, so pet owners can trust that every detail will be handled with care and responsibility I’m currently free during the work week most times of the day. I also have availability on weekends on a need to need basis. I’m ready and willing to spend as much time as your pets need. I wouldn’t be able to take care of pets in my own home but can do whatever is needed in their homes. I am good at providing structured resting time as well as play and can provide support with any trailing being done in the home

About: When I was 9, I got my first dog, and that is how I started to be interested in being a vet and take care of dogs. I’m a UCD Animal Science student. My class schedule is not very busy other than Thursdays for this quarter, so I will be home most of the time other than that. I have 3 roommates (2 are also Animal Science students) who also loves animals and knows how to take care of them and have experiences with pets. There will usually be at least 1-2 person at home always. We have plenty of space for your pet to run around in the house, and a yard which we can be taking the dog out for potty breaks.

“Sofia had great communication and updated me during every visit she had with my pug. Even though my dog can be stubborn when it comes to eating, she always made sure he ate and was taken care of.”

“Jessie is wonderful to have as our pet sitter! She communicates well and was so great with Oslo. She is totally trustworthy and we will definitely be calling upon her again!”

About: What sets me apart is as a pre-vet student, my clinical experience working in a veterinary setting, where I assisted in vaccine clinics and gained hands-on exposure to animal handling and care. This experience taught me how to safely and calmly work with animals of different temperaments, including those who may be nervous or stressed. I also have over 10 years of experience with a variety of species including dogs, cats, cows, goats, pigs, chickens and birds. I am happy and open to take care of all animals. I’m attentive to detail and able to recognize changes in behavior, appetite, or energy that could indicate a problem. While I provide loving and reliable care, I also bring a level of awareness and responsibility that comes from working in a clinical environment. I’m comfortable following specific care instructions and making sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for. Beyond that, I truly enjoy spending time with animals and make an effort to build trust and give them the attention and affection they need. Afterall, it's all I want to do as I pursue my dreams to becoming a Veterinarian :) I have a very flexible schedule, I am available every day, including weekends, with the exception of Tuesdays and Thursdays when I have classes. I make sure to plan my schedule around the pets I’m caring for so they receive plenty of time, attention, and exercise. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. In a client’s home, I carefully follow all instructions to maintain their normal routine, environment, and feeding schedule to reduce stress. I always ensure doors, gates, and leashes are secure, and I closely supervise pets during walks and playtime. I create a calm, clean, and safe environment and pay close attention to behavior or any signs of discomfort. With my background in animal science and clinical settings, I am detail-oriented, reliable, and focused on making sure your pet feels safe, cared for, and at ease while you’re away.

“Jenna was wonderful! She did excellent with our high-energy Chocolate Lab! Her communication was very prompt and professional and her care for our dog was outstanding. We will definitely use her services again!”

“Zoe was super flexible and great with our new pup. She communicated well and took time to come meet him when we booked last minute. We look forward to using her again!”

“Audrey did an awesome job watching my cats, I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. My cats loved Audrey back, as evidenced by pics of them crawling all over Audrey, lol! The litter box was clean, and they were fed and happy when I got home too, just like I was hoping. Audrey was kind and pleasant to be in contact with.”

“Wenchi did a great job walking Rio for the first time. He isn't used to strangers or being left alone for a long time. Wenchi was very patient and kind in coaxing him out of the house for his walk. I loved the communication with her and the photos which gave me assurance that he wasn't unusually stressed with this situation. I would definitely use her again to walk Rio.”

Kristine H.

“Vivian did a great job with Luna. I really appreciate her watching Luna.”

About: I grew up with dogs (a very sweet, energetic Australian shepherd mix, a crazy but loving Jack Russell terrier mix, and a super athletic labradoodle), so have loved and cared for high-energy dogs from a young age! I also have recent experience cat sitting my friends’ cat, which I really enjoyed :) I’m a registered nurse but haven’t found a job yet, so I’m looking to Rover for the interim! My days are very flexible when I’m in town. My husband and I just bought a home in Slide Hill Park, so we have a fenced-in backyard and a dog door that my dog can help your dog learn how to use :) A little about our dog: he’s a very sweet 9-month-old golden retriever/siberian husky mix named Oreo who we rehomed from another family who has to give him up because of landlord issues. He’s very friendly and loves to exercise and play with other dogs! He’s still intact for now— hoping to wait until he’s at least 1-year-old so he can finish growing. I love to run/walk him in Slide Hill Park, the Greenbelt, and the Arboretum, and I would love to take your pet along as well! I also really enjoy taking dogs to the dog park so they can socialize 🐕🐩🐕‍🦺🦮

“She is very nice and has a good response time to messages. I felt very safe leaving my two kitties with her and we got plenty of photos and updates.”

About: By working with and around large and small domestic animals for the past 5 years, I have gained the confidence in reading an animal’s body language and behaving in ways they can be comfortable with me. I am a big fan of enrichment, so I am all for anything you’re willing to try for your pet that can get their minds stimulated! I’m currently working full time at a farm animal sanctuary and have the flexibility to walk or drop in on your pup between 6a-9a and between 8p-11p. I have a 1bed apartment and a friendly golden that is trained to be around reactive dogs. I love to visit nearby parks and green belts, so rest assured your pet will have the sniff of a lifetime!

“Amy took great care of our dogs while we were away. She worked with me on the drop-in schedule to ensure the least disruption to their normal routine. I appreciated the Rover cards and photos from each visit. And being responsive when I checked in. Thanks, Amy!”
