Loving Care, Peace of Mind Near SMF
I know how hard it is to leave your pet with someone else. Whether you're traveling for work, taking a vacation, or simply need help during a busy week, you're trusting someone to care for a member of your family. I understand that responsibility, and I never take it for granted. I specialize in House Sitting, Pet Boarding, and Dog Walking, providing personalized care that's tailored to each pet's unique personality, routine, and needs. Whether your pet is energetic and playful, shy and reserved, a curious kitten, or a senior companion who enjoys a slower pace, I take the time to understand what makes them feel comfortable, happy, and secure. I welcome pets of all breeds, sizes, and ages, including cats. From playful puppies to senior pets and those with special needs, I tailor my care to meet each pet's individual personality and routine. I also have extensive experience administering oral medications and carefully following detailed care instructions, so you can feel confident your pet's health and well-being are always my priority. I don't see pets as another booking on my calendar. I see them as family members who deserve patience, kindness, attention, and genuine affection. Every pet deserves to feel safe, loved, and understood while their family is away. My goal isn't simply to care for your pet. It's to earn your trust and become someone you can rely on whenever you need dependable, compassionate pet care.

Elizabeth was great with my pup. I get photos and updates each time. We have been there twice and would continue to rebook her without hesitation. Thanks Elizabeth
Elizabeth was absolutely amazing with our dog, Cookie. Cookie is extremely shy and has a lot of anxiety around new people, so leaving her while we were away was something we were honestly very nervous about. Elizabeth immediately gave us so much peace of mind. She was incredibly patient, attentive, thoughtful, and trustworthy. She understood that Cookie needed space and allowed her to warm up at her own pace, while still finding little ways to build trust and make her comfortable. By the end of the stay, Cookie was following her around, letting her brush her, and even rolling over for belly rubs, which is a huge deal for her! Elizabeth also communicated with us constantly, sending detailed updates, pictures and videos, and letting us know about everything from eating and potty breaks to small changes she noticed. We never once had to wonder how Cookie was doing. It was very clear that Elizabeth genuinely cared about Cookie and treated her like her own. Being away from an anxious dog can be stressful, but knowing Elizabeth was with her allowed us to actually relax and enjoy our trip. We came home to a happy, well cared for dog and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We would absolutely trust Elizabeth with Cookie again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone caring, responsible, attentive and truly great with animals. Thank you, Elizabeth!

Schedule
Because I work from home and have a flexible schedule, pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. Your pet will receive plenty of companionship, supervision, and love throughout the day and won't be left alone for long periods. My flexible schedule allows me to provide regular potty breaks, meals, medications, walks, playtime, cuddles, and one-on-one attention based on your pet's normal routine. I know consistency helps pets feel secure, so I do everything I can to make their day feel familiar, comfortable, and stress-free. Communication is just as important to me as the care I provide. When you book with me, you can expect: • Daily updates so you always know how your pet is doing. • Plenty of photos and videos so you can enjoy the little moments you'll miss. • Prompt, reliable communication whenever you have questions. • Honest updates about meals, walks, playtime, naps, medications, and your pet's overall well-being. My goal is for you to relax and enjoy your time away, knowing your pet is happy, safe, and receiving the same love and attention they're accustomed to at home.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Whether I'm caring for your pet in my home or yours, my priority is always the same: creating a safe, loving, and stress-free environment where they feel comfortable, secure, and cared for. For added convenience, my home is located about 15 minutes from Sacramento International Airport (SMF), making drop-off and pick-up easy for pet parents traveling for work, vacations, or weekend getaways. My home is designed with pets in mind. I have a large, fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely play and explore, along with several nearby parks and scenic walking trails that are perfect for daily walks, exercise, and outdoor adventures. Whether your pet enjoys an energetic game of fetch, exploring new scents, or a leisurely stroll, I'll make sure they get the activity, enrichment, and one-on-one attention they need. During every visit or stay, your pet receives much more than the basics. They'll enjoy companionship, playtime, enrichment, exercise, affection, and plenty of individualized attention. Whether they love chasing a ball, exploring the neighborhood, curling up on the couch, or simply relaxing beside someone they trust, I'll make sure their days are filled with comfort, fun, and genuine care. If I'm caring for your pet in your home, I'll carefully follow their established routine, including feeding schedules, medications, potty breaks, favorite activities, bedtime routines, and any special instructions you provide. I'll also treat your home with the same respect and care that I give your pet. Above all, I want every pet to feel loved, every home to be respected, and every pet owner to have peace of mind knowing their furry family member is safe, comfortable, and receiving attentive care. I'd love to schedule a Meet & Greet so we can get to know each other, answer any questions you may have, and make sure we're the perfect fit. I look forward to meeting you and welcoming your furry family member with the love, care, and attention they deserve.

A typical day
Every pet is different, so I tailor activities to match their personality, age, and energy level. Whether your pet enjoys long walks along nearby scenic trails, playing fetch in my large fenced backyard, exploring new scents at the park, interactive toys, or simply relaxing with plenty of cuddles, I'll make sure their day is both fun and enriching. For energetic pets, we'll enjoy walks, games, and outdoor playtime to keep them active and engaged. For senior pets or those who prefer a slower pace, I'll provide gentle walks, quiet companionship, and lots of affection. My goal is to keep your pet mentally stimulated, physically active, and emotionally happy while maintaining the routine they're familiar with. Most importantly, they'll receive plenty of one-on-one attention, love, and positive interaction, so they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for until you're back together.

- Before caring for your pet, I'd love to learn as much as possible about them so I can provide the best experience. Please let me know about their daily routine, feeding schedule, medications, allergies, favorite activities, personality, and any behaviors or fears I should be aware of. I'd also like to know how they interact with other people and animals, their favorite treats and toys, and any commands they know. The more I understand about your pet's habits and preferences, the easier it is for me to help them feel comfortable, safe, and at home while you're away. My goal is to maintain their normal routine as closely as possible so their time with me is enjoyable and stress-free.
