I wish we were able to relay the peace of mind we have when we leave to visit family and know our girls will be loved, protected, played with, and happy while we are gone. We love the stories, pictures, and conversations which show how comfortable the girls are, and how profoundly Tiffany understands their personalities. We are so grateful for Tiffany's care of our girls, and for knowing we can enjoy our families knowing they are in terrific and capable hands. The girls are grateful too and clearly love their friend.

About: We love all animals and have been with Rover since 2015. We have two female miniature dachshunds, Daisy Mae and Poppy who are both very playful and friendly.. My husband and I have always felt a very strong connection with all animals. We couldn't imagine our life without them. They bring such unconditional love and companionship every day! We enjoy walking them every day and just hanging outside with them. Your fur babies will be given lots of affection and exercise and will go home happy. :) We are both home all day to watch over your pup.. We have a fenced garden area where the dogs love to run around in or they can just hang out and be mellow on our back deck. We also have a year round creek that runs through the back of our house where the dogs love playing in the water. Lots of chew toys, balls, treats and beds are included too! Your pup will sleep inside with us either on a bed, the floor, or if they are kennel trained, we can provide those as well. We provide daily texts, videos, and photos so you can have comfort knowing that your pup is safe and happy 😊 We look forward to meeting you! My husband and I work as a team and are both recently retired. We are home all day with the dogs and make sure they are happy and safe. :) We also are available for dog walking, drop in visits, and staying in your home to care for your pups during your absence. We take them all for daily walks, playtime, or just relaxing in a peaceful environment. We have two very friendly dogs they can play with or just hang out together. We feed them all two times per day unless otherwise needed. We want your fur babies to feel comfortable while you are away so we are compassionate to their needs. They all sleep indoors at night. We send daily pictures and updates on how they are doing throughout the day. Lots of love and kisses in this house!

About: I’ve loved dogs since I was a little kid. From volunteering at animal shelters and walking dogs, to house and dog-sitting for neighbors and family friends, to taking in my neighbor’s old dog Yogi, I have a lifetime of experience with animals. Dogs just bring me the kind of joy that nothing else in life can provide. My main priority is to maintain whatever training or habits your pup is used to make sure they are comfortable and happy in my care. I work from home with a flexible schedule and will happily take your pup out on walks multiple times a day. I also have a beautiful and safe fenced yard for them to play and sniff around in. Just across the street from my house are miles of beautiful forested trails that are always empty, so you can ensure your pup will get plenty of outdoors time. I also have an enclosed patio attached to my office that your pup can lounge on within eyesight while I’m working for some fresh air and sunshine :) I have a pet-free household, so no need to worry about other animals bugging your pup. I also love the outdoors and will take any excuse I can to go on walks, that means your pup will be well exercised (if needed). My home has a beautiful large backyard with trees and a creek, with one fenced yard perfect for off-leash play. At your home, I will make sure to be respectful and cater to the needs of your pup. My goal is to maintain all of your dog’s current habits and training to ensure they have a wonderful and relaxing time away from home or at your home while you’re away.

About: I have been a full-time puppy whelper for the past 8 years and come highly recommended with lots of references. I welcome all different breeds. I am always home. While I do have to pick up and drop off my children for their various sports and activities, it’s just a five minute drive away.I am always available. Plus, I’m attending school online from the comfort of my home. I live on 1 1/2 acres with a mini horse, two small goats that like to visit the neighbors and two potbelly pigs. Additionally I have two older French bulldogs who are house trained and very friendly, as well as two cane corsos who get along well with all animals including pony,goats, and pigs- they’re all pals! All of my animals are well-behaved , and I’ve often been told I should’ve been a vet or a dog trainer because of my love for animals. I have two separate backyards-one for the smaller dogs and one for the bigger ones. However I’m accustomed to rotating them due to my experience as a whelper. I know how to manage introducing new dogs and keeping them separate if needed.My dogs have access to indoors and outdoors, and they sleep in the house at night. I’ve set up set up my garage to be cozy and welcoming for dogs to stay in at night.

Sara was fantastic! She came over before our scheduled day to meet our dogs and familiarize herself with our dogs schedule and details for their routine. We have never hired a dog service before and we’re apprehensive at first. The day of service she kept us informed and even sent pictures of our fur babies to let us know how they’re doing. We felt comfortable knowing Sara was tending to them. We definitely recommend hiring her services and will be using Rover and requesting Sara for future dog sitting services. :)

About: Certified Veterinary Assistant (Kaplan College). I worked as a canine groomer for 5 years, providing experience with all breeds of pups. Volunteer at the SPCA for 2+ years, which includes canine behavioral classes. I've spent the last 3 years running my farm and caring for or boarding horses, cattle, goats, dogs, kitties. I have a set schedule Monday through Friday, which allows me to provide a predictable time frame of my availability throughout the week. I commute from the the Swansboro area, to downtown Placerville which makes it easy to swing by most areas of Placerville for weekday visits. My weekends are completely open for mornings, afternoons, and evenings. I understand pets get lonely the second their people leave, and I understand what it's like to worry about your babies while you're away! I'm willing to visit, walk, feed, simply hang out, and of course provide photo updates so you can try to enjoy your time away.

About: I have always had multiple dogs and cats my entire life; from farm to city living. Currently working from home where I can give extra attention to your pet! I recently lost my senior dog who was blind and had seizures, throughout the past few years I have gained great experience with our senior friends. I work from home full time, Monday through Friday, where I can give your pet the attention and bathroom breaks needed throughout the day. During the evening and weekends I try to get outside where your dog is welcome to join! I grew up on a farm in Iowa with barn cats, farm dogs, and various livestock and have lived the apartment life with pets in the big city! I have various experience caring for pets in large and small spaces.

About: I have been a volunteer trainer with the Sierra At Tahoe Avalanche Dogs since I was about 10. My father runs the dog program so I grew up being taught how to train, take care of, and watch over dogs since I was a toddler. At the ski mountain I helped drill the dogs to find subjects in the snow, played, walked, fed, took to the bathroom, and watched over the dogs ages ranging from puppies to senior dogs. My family also has three dogs and three cats all of I have assisted in training, and most of the time look after on my own. I recently left my job so I am open full time with my schedule to take part in pet care. On some days I do need to watch my own animals since my parents work full time, but even then I am always available for even just a check in if needed! I make sure my pets have a set in feeding time as well as they have a signal for bathroom breaks, even if they do not show me they need to go I will periodically let them outside or take them on a walk. Besides just food and bathroom I love to work on skills, tricks, and just playing with the dogs throughout the day as to make sure they are enriched and happy. These qualities go for all animals I may watch too! I pride myself in being able to recognize their behavior so I can adapt for them what they need or want!

Jane has been super dependable!! She is very loving toward my dog and cares very much about his well being and his enjoyment of their encounter. I really appreciate that she keeps me updated as to what’s going on, which makes me feel so much better about leaving my beloved in someone’s else’s care.

About: My husband David and I are lifelong dog lovers who have welcomed many rescue dogs into our family over the years. Our current pets—a Pomeranian and a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel—are both very friendly and get along wonderfully with other dogs. We also have a rescued indoor/outdoor cat who is equally social and gentle. After a five-year break, we’re excited to return to pet sitting because of our genuine love for animals and the joy we’ve had helping dogs and their owners. Our Home & Care We live on one acre of fully secured, fenced-in land with a dog run area and a doggie door for easy access. David is retired and home most of the day, so your pets will have plenty of attention. He primarily covers daytime care, while I handle evenings and feedings. We have many years of experience dog- and cat-sitting for family and friends, both in the Bay Area and now in our current community. We understand firsthand how stressful it can be to leave your “fur babies,” and our goal is to give you peace of mind while you’re away. Additional Services For an added charge, I can provide grooming services during your pet’s stay, as I am a former professional dog groomer. We look forward to meeting you and your pets and providing them with a safe, loving, and fun environment while you’re away! My husband is retired and home during the day, so he handles the daytime routines. I take over in the afternoons and evenings to ensure consistent care. We go on daily leash walks with our dogs, and at night, your pup is welcome to sleep in our room for comfort and companionship We have a fully secured, fenced-in backyard with over an acre of space for dogs to safely run, play, and explore. Our pets are truly part of our family, and we will care for your dogs with the same love, attention, and safety we give our own
