Loving Care for your Fur Baby
Hi there! I’m Kevin, and I provide warm, personalized pet care in the Sacramento State area. I share my home with pets I care for in a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment where they can feel safe, relaxed, and loved while you’re away. As someone who loves running and staying active, I especially enjoy taking dogs along the beautiful river paths right in front of my unit if they enjoy exercise and outdoor adventures too! Whether your pet prefers long walks, playtime, cuddle sessions, or a slower-paced routine, I always adapt my care to their personality and comfort level. I have over 10 years of experience caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. I pride myself on being patient, empathetic, responsible, and highly communicative so pet parents always feel informed and at ease. I currently work part-time while preparing for higher education, and caring for animals is something I genuinely love. Your pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness are always my top priorities. I also provide regular photo and video updates so you can stay connected with your furry friend while you’re away. I treat every pet like family and strive to create a loving and enriching experience whether I’m caring for them in my home or yours. I’d love to meet you and your pet! 🐶🐾🐱

Ratings and reviews
We had a need of an emergency change in sitters while we were out of town (super stressful!) and Kevin was able to save the day! Amazing communication, great updates and photos, and truly went above and beyond in caring for our pup with walks and cuddles. Very thankful for the care and service provided by Kevin!
Our pup was well taken care of ! We are very happy with Kevin and will certainly be booking again!
Thanks so much for taking such care of Jerry Jeff. Hope we can do it again soon.
Kevin and Riley were amazing hosts for our dog, Gadget! From the moment we dropped him off, we could tell he felt right at home. They have a lovely private little patio where Gadget could relax and sunbathe, which he absolutely loves to do. They were super responsive and extremely flexible—especially when our flight got delayed. We really appreciated their understanding and patience. They even helped us out by picking up more food when we ran out, which was such a huge help. We couldn’t have asked for better long stay sitters—thank you for taking such great care of our boy!
Kevin’s commitment to pet sitting is unmatched! He went above and beyond to make sure our pets felt loved and comfortable while we were away. His persistence in ensuring every detail was taken care of gave us complete peace of mind. Kevin truly treats every pet as his own. Highly recommended!

Schedule
Pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine, driven by my genuine love for animals. My day often begins with morning walks or runs, which not only keep me active but also allow me to enjoy quality time with the pets I care for. I schedule dedicated times for feeding, play, and grooming, ensuring that each pet gets the individualized attention they deserve. My flexible part-time job gives me the freedom to balance work and pet care seamlessly. Whether it’s taking dogs on hikes or engaging in playful activities with cats, I make sure that caring for pets is a joyful and integral part of my everyday life.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
When caring for pets in my home, I prioritize safety and trust by providing a secure and welcoming environment tailored to their needs. I ensure that my space is pet-proofed, with safe areas for them to play and relax. A structured routine for feeding, walking, and playtime helps pets feel comfortable and reduces anxiety. In clients’ homes, I respect their space and routines while maintaining the same level of care and attention. I take extra precautions to follow any specific guidelines provided by pet owners, ensuring their pets feel secure and loved. Open and honest communication is key; I keep pet owners updated on their pets’ well-being, reinforcing trust and peace of mind. Whether in my home or theirs, my commitment is to create a safe and nurturing environment where pets can thrive.
A typical day
Some of the fun activities we enjoy include: • Daily walks or light jogs around the beautiful trails and parks in Natomas (for pups who love the outdoors!) • Tug-of-war, fetch, and puzzle games to keep both body and mind active • Snuggle time and belly rubs for pets who love quiet comfort • Enrichment activities like scent games or treat-dispensing toys • Photo shoots — we love capturing happy moments and sending you cute updates! We always adjust activities to match your pet’s energy level, age, and preferences. Whether they’re high-energy adventurers or gentle nap-lovers, we make sure their time with us is safe, stimulating, and full of love.
