Dog lovers
Pet care experience
Hi there! My name is Trista, I have always been a dog lover. I stop and say hi to every dog I come across and at parties you can always find me hanging out with the host's dog. My friends and relatives always ask me to dog sit while they are out of town and I figured I'd offer my services to others in the area. My fiancé Ed is also an animal lover, he works from home while I work in office 9-5 Monday-Friday. When we aren’t home the pets have access to a fully fenced yard through a dog door. I have one small Boston Terrier (Ayva) who loves company and my parent’s Boston Terrier (Cali) is often with me as well. I own my house and have a fenced yard. When left alone, we typically separate our dogs from clients. I have experience volunteering at the Placer SPCA and have been through their training. I am familiar with handling both small and large dogs.
Reviews
I was very nervous to leave my dog at a “sitter” because she had been my constant companion since coming to her home. Ed and Trista put all of my fears to rest. They began bonding to Rico as soon as the meet and greet. They kept me updated on her day to day activities and how she was doing. If I ever need to board her, again Trista and Ed will be my only choice. They are the best fit I could have hoped for. Truly dog lovers.
Trista and Edward were fantastic!
Trista and Edward were a blessing to have while we went away for a week. They watched our 3 dogs -- Bailey, Callie, and Merlot -- at their home and my pups enjoyed every minute of it. They have ample outdoor space for the dogs to run around and play which was perfect for my 3. Trista and Edward left us reassured that they would be well cared for from the pre-meet through the end of the booking and allowed us to not constantly worry on vacation which was a blessing. They were super thorough with care instructions and questions regarding the dogs and really thought of everything! This was especially calming for us since our youngest (Callie) has a bit of anxiety with strangers -- Callie bonded with Trista and Edward right away without hesitation. We got multiple updates and pictures throughout which was amazing! I was afraid my pups wouldn't want to leave when I picked them up because they had so much fun! I highly recommend Trista and Edward for your dog sitting needs! Thank you so much! -- Merlot, Bailey, and Callie :)
Trista and Ed were great with our pups! When I came to pick them up, they had even folded up our very large crate for us, which was no small job! Thanks so much, you guys!

Home
Information Trista & Edward G. would like to know about your pet
We like to know any quirky behavior, you know your dog best. While we don’t have kids, we do have family members and friends with kids who sometimes visit so we like to know how your dog reacts to kids in order to keep everyone safe.
A typical day
We play fetch (inside or out), take walks, or cuddle depending on the wants/needs of your dog. Ayva is blind so she doesn’t fetch anymore but does enjoy tug, Cali will fetch all day. Both dogs enjoy meeting new friends.
