About: Dog owners will love that I will treat their fur baby like my own. I’ve grown up with German shepherds, Pomeranians, dobermans, labs, pits, Golden retrievers and more! I absolutely love animals and I will make sure they’re taken care of and treated as they should be. I’m available basically all day every day. I am a stay at home mom while my husband is in the army so I am home all the time besides going and running errands etc. I am able to take your dogs on walks, play with them at your home if needed and give them lots of exercise. Dog parks if your dog is not aggressive with others. And anything else you may need for your sweet fur baby. Message me if you have any other questions or want to talk price! I am a stay at home mom with two boys & I also have a dog of my own. I am available always & if need be my kids will stay home with dad so I can take care of your sweet fur baby(s) Depending how your animals do with kids, I will happily take them into my home. You won’t need to worry about your fur baby & I’ll always update you with plenty of photos!(:

About: I have owned and cared for pets my entire life. I'm recently retired from a long career as a professional equestrian and horse trainer, and I'm excited to begin this journey of offering pet care services to the community! I have experience with all types and ages of pets ... from very young to very senior. I have experience administering medications, giving injections, and basic first aid. My lifestyle is active, and I'm happy to provide whatever exercise that your pet needs, whether that is a long trail hike, or simply walks around the neighborhood. And lots of love and snuggles of course :) I also have extensive horse experience, and limited experience with other livestock, and I'm happy to provide services for those animals as well. I currently work from home and have an extremely flexible schedule, which allows me to work around whatever your pet care needs are. I have a reliable 4 wheel drive vehicle, so I can get to some of the further out Nevada County destinations no problem. I pride myself on being punctual, organized and reliable, and you can rest assured that your pet(s) and home will receive attentive and loving care. I am happy to take care of any additional tasks that you might need around your home while you're away (checking mail, taking out trash, watering plants/garden, etc. )

“Deborah sent me updates and photos of Puka’s stay. She gave her the perfect amount of exercise and stimulation.”

About: I’ve always had pets and cared/trained from puppies to disabled elders who need medication. I even produce a local dog parade annually. Must love dogs! I have a flexible schedule making it easy to accommodate others. I have reliable transportation for getting to homes and am in excellent health so no excuse…. I live on 24 acres, some fenced. My cats are indoor/outdoor and are trained to come in at night. They are literbox trained. My dogs stay in the house when we leave and get regular vet care. At your home: caution opening doors, assure leashes attached properly, and yard secure, administer meds according to vet orders. Feed per owner directions (you have them sing for dinner, I will too), refresh water, photograph/video each encounter to share with owner at visit, clean up pet messes, sit on floor and play, make sure home is securely locked when leaving

“Aron has been so excellent with my 9 month old Malinois! She comes home exhausted and is always excited to be there. He’s very attentive and puts up with my paranoid-dog-mom “how’s she doing?” texts every so often 😂 highly recommend!”

About: I have extensive hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. I run a 501(c)(3) dog rescue, regularly transport dogs, care for puppies, seniors, and special-needs dogs, administer medications, work on basic training, leash manners, and provide structured, loving care tailored to each pet’s needs. Pet care fits seamlessly into my schedule because animals are already a central part of my daily life. I work from home and plan my days around feeding schedules, walks, medications, enrichment, and individualized care. This flexibility allows me to be reliable, responsive, and fully present for each pet. I have 2 600+ feet plus areas for dogs to run and play. We have a building for them to sleep cozy, clean and safe.

“Louisa was extremely flexible and accommodating to our last minute needs. She was very sweet and kept us updated with photos which, as new puppy parents, we loved!! Thanks Louisa:)”

“What a great environment for my dog. The backyard is a dog's dream, especially if your pup likes to run. Yolanda was very accommodating when I was delayed and kept me informed of how Beau was doing during his stay. I would highly recommend Yolanda and her Doggy Day Care.”

About: As an enthusiastic pet lover with a full-time job at a pet store and the proud owner of two adorable cats, I have immersed myself in the world of pet care for years. Growing up with dogs has instilled a deep understanding of canine behavior, while my feline companions have given me unique insights into the needs and quirks of our feline friends. This combined experience allows me to cater to both dogs and cats with the utmost love, attention, and care. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I plan my schedule around your pet’s comfort—ensuring regular potty breaks every 4–8 hours, meals on time, play sessions, and lots of affection. Whether it’s a short visit or a longer stay, I make sure your pets feel relaxed, loved, and well cared for. Compassion First: I treat every pet like family, always prioritizing their comfort, safety, and happiness. Experience Counts: My experience at a pet store and as a multi-pet owner has taught me how to handle a wide range of behaviors, dietary needs, and situations—whether it’s picky eating, anxiety, or energetic zoomies. Tailored Care: I adapt to each pet’s routine, and I’m happy to follow specific feeding schedules, administer medications, or work with special needs pets.

About: Dogs are part of the family! I grew up with animals and have always taken our responsibility to pets seriously. I'm trained as a professional pet nutrition advocate and have experience not just feeding all the pets but truly healing thru nutrition with everything from making whole foods and supplements, to designing recipes and diets, including the treats, to training and socializing dogs of all ages and backgrounds. I've built my schedule around pet care including making the foods and minimum 2 walks a day. I'm happy to make time for the pets anytime! Whether I'm staying over with your dogs or they're staying over with me, I strive to keep them happy and healthy in every way with good nutrition, exercise and quality interaction.

“Finding Mitchell has been a huge relief as my dog gets adjusted to a new move. She has been so flexible, quick to respond, and my dog has had great interactions with her dogs and family during his mornings with Mitchell. Thank you so much!”

About: Offering a safe home away from home, compassionate care, and peace of mind for pet owners is something that all pet sitters should be offering. I go far beyond this standard providing both care and training. Since I was a child, dogs and cats have gravitated toward me and I've always enjoyed their companionship; you can almost always find me with at least one dogs around. It's never been an unruly mass of teeth and paws though; I've always taken the time to teach my furry friends to walk on leash, to have immediate recall, to be polite in kitchen, and to use their voices kindly. I do the same with every animal that I am given care of, gently coaching them to be civil, furry companions while showering them with love. I am currently working from home and set my own schedule. I have a set daily morning and evening walk which your pup(s) will join. During the day, you pup(s) will have company of two dogs, three cats and plenty of pets from me. On weekends we go on adventure hikes. I have a fenced yard and two friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company during the day. I have crates, leashes, grooming tools and home made dog beds for all pet care needs.

“Laura took such good care of Asker! She sent several pictures during his stay for the day, and it looked like he had so much fun. Thanks again Laura! I will be contacting you for future day care needs.”

About: We loved our pound puppy from birth until he passed at year 13:(. We love all things dog. We saw him through the puppy years, daily walks, and the older years with wagon rides. We will love your baby as we loved ours. I am stay at home mom with two littles who love dogs!! We can’t wait to walk your dog several times a day and snuggle. We walk all the time, go to parks, have a fenced in area (10x10 area), snuggle. We are a responsible family, we eat healthy and feed our family/ pets the same. We enjoy the outdoors, non smoking, super clean people:)

“I was in town working for the week and found Evie. I had to drop him off for 10 hours a day and she was a life saver. Evie was a great sitter and Achilles loved her. She sent pictures of them playing, kept me informed throughout the day and he was always happy when I picked home up. I would definitely use her services again.”
