About: I started volunteering at the Antioch Animal Shelter in the 4th grade. Since then I have volunteered at numerous shelters and rescues, including the emergency animal shelter in Oroville after the Camp Fire. I'm Disaster Animal Rescue Team (D.A.R.T.) trained, animal CPR and first aid certified, and have years of TNR experience. I have had many exotics as pets, including a reef tank at one time. I have no issue feeding crickets and worms, but I can't feed snakes rodents. I'm a lifelong vegetarian, so that would traumatize me. Lol. I also love rodents, and currently have 2 rescue guinea pigs. Animal care and nutrition are a passion of mine. I'm also an expert teeth brusher! I brush my cats and dogs teeth every night and some of my pet sits as well. I'm very experienced giving medication, even pills to cats and my recently adopted cat Ricky is diabetic. Two of my regular cats I sit take meds, and one gets insulin injections, so I'm very comfortable with both and also know how to check blood glucose. Animals are allowed on the furniture in my home, even the bed. A couple of dogs I regularly sit sleep in the bed with me and my dogs. I treat other people's furbabies the way I would want my furbabies treated. I'm a helicopter pet parent so I totally understand how hard it is to trust someone with the ones you love. If I ever thought something was wrong with your pet I would notify you asap, and I have no issue taking an animal to the vet. I have a rescue dog who has occasional seizures and a rescue kitty with kidney disease that I give sub-q fluids to every day, so I am very comfortable with special needs animals. I'm pretty OCD when it comes to pet care. I actually have a pet thermometer and carry a microchip reader in my truck with an extra leash. You'd be surprised how many times I've used that chip reader! Being a helicopter pet parent I NEVER EVER leave an animal outside alone, not even in my fenced in yard. I don't take chances. I'm also obsessively clean, so your litter box will not be a hot mess when you return, and if your dog uses a potty pad no problem. I also have waterproof vinyl plank flooring so accidents and kitty puke is easy to clean up. :-D. When I board animals it is very much mi casa esu casa! I'm also more than happy to water plants when I do drop-ins as well, since I have them myself and am also a gardener. :-) I work from home 3 days a week and the other 2 days I come home for lunch since the office is only 2.5 miles from my house. I'm home most weekends as well. I follow the care instructions to the letter. If your pup requires a crate it must be brought with them, since mine are not crated. I am comfortable giving medication and supplements, measuring food, following a raw food diet, feeding exotics, etc. I'm also comfortable grooming for an extra fee, but will never ignore a mat in their fur or charge extra for daily grooming like toothbrushing.

“Wonderful experience! My dog was in great hands. The sitter was responsible, attentive, and very caring. They kept me updated with photos and messages, and I could tell my pup felt safe and happy the whole time. Communication was easy and smooth, and it’s clear they truly love animals. I highly recommend them and will definitely book again.”

“Matt took such great care of my dog Lillie! He was communicative, was great with introducing her to other dogs slowly, and made sure she felt comfortable. We will definitely book with Matt again in the future!”

About: What sets me apart from other dog sitters is my deep understanding of dog behavior and my genuine passion for creating a safe, fun, and loving environment for every pup I care for. I don’t just “watch” dogs—I engage with them through structured play, enrichment activities, and tailored routines based on their needs and personalities. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine as a stay-at-home mom. I’m already used to maintaining a structured, nurturing environment, and that translates perfectly to caring for pets. I’m home throughout the day, so I can provide consistent attention, regular potty breaks, walks, playtime. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, my focus is always on creating a safe, loving, and stress-free environment.

“Tanisha was fantastic with my dog Morty. My dog is reactive and nervous around new dogs, and she was willing to do whatever it takes to make sure he would feel comfortable with her and her dog. We did a meet and greet, followed by a test overnight board and test daycare. It was incredible to see how well my dog settled in with her. You can tell she cares a lot about the dogs she watches. I got a lot of pictures and videos of my dog while he was with Tanisha (more than I've ever gotten from a sitter). I highly recommend Tanisha!”

About: I am here because I know how important it is to provide your pets quality care. I want your time away to be as convenient and stress free as possible. I know it can be difficult finding the right care and I am here to ease that worry while reassuring you I have experience and knowledge to provide quality care. I strive to keep your pets routine and make sure they are comfortable and happy. I'm here to communicate with you and commit to you and your pets. I see myself as a form of extended family, as such I genuinely care and provide quality care. I had owners that needed me to care for special needs and request one on one care or special needs can be accommodated sometimes with additional fees but most often with the regular rates. I am able to do introductions with other animals or keep separate depending on pets temperament and owner preferences. I've taken care of pets, including my own since I was a young child. I have cared for all types of pets including cats, dogs (of all sizes) and other animals. I have experience with senior animals and puppies and have pet sat, been a dog owner and fostered. I have experience with multiple breeds and we prefer to make your pet feel at home as much as possible, so you can be at ease while away. I work from home and pets are provided care throughout the day. I know it can be hard to find someone you feel comfortable with taking care of your pet so I am to not only take excellent care of your pet but for you to rest assured your pet is in great hands. I have a fenced yard, as well as a space if you have a pet that needs to be confined or crated. I am happy to discuss needs and try to work out to make your pets stay as pleasant as possible. I ask that you provide all the things your pet is used to including schedule/ routine if you keep one so that their time away is comfortable and seamless.

“Nelly cared for our dog max as if he was part of her family. She was extremely communicative sending updates and photos throughout the day. We would not hesitate to board Max again with Nelly”

“Cathy is an amazing sitter! I did a few days of daycare for my puppy Billie and she was super communicative throughout this process which helped ease a ton of my worry since it was my first time using rover and she was also very open to helping with the crate routine that I’m trying to establish for my pup! Her place is very clean in a safe neighborhood and has plenty of room for playing which I can tell Billie had the time of her life with Cathy’s adorable dog, Lilo, since she would come home and not act like a hyper little land shark😂 Definitely recommend Cathy!”

“Happy I found Martha to take care of Niko. She responds in a timely manner & very flexible with my last minute requests. She ask all the important questions to assure she provides the best care for your fur-child. My shy Niko and her sweet pup Misty got along really well hanging out for the first time. Niko enjoyed his stay with Martha & her family!”

“My husband and I recently moved to California and looking for the right fit for our two dogs, a Shepsky and small rescue dog. We were able to setup a meet & greet with Charlie, and a day of doggie day-care. Our boys came home tired & happy, and we have already booked with them again!”

“Domynique was amazing with my puppy Ollie. She sent updates and would provide walks along with just great quality time. She was super accommodating to my commute that she volunteered to meet me half way. Ollie always came home ready for a nap after a great day with Domynique, will definitely be booking again and would recommend 🥰”

About: I currently have 7 years of experience being a pet sitter, and I am currently working in the Veterinary field as a Veterinary Assistant. I have watched dogs of all sizes and ages including dogs with disabilities and I also have experience watching cats! I am able to work around your schedule and am open to watching in your home or mine, depending on the pet parents preference. Additionally, i also offer the following services: going for a walk with your fur baby(s), nail trims, anal gland expression, oral and injectable medication administration, administration of SQ fluids, insulin administration, and I am open to requests for other services you would like to request! My schedule is fairly open. I do 4 days a week at Banfield Pet Hospital but I usually get out of work before 7. I am able to check in on pets during my lunch break and am open to staying 1+ week overnight with any pet. On my days off, my availability is completely open morning to night In my own house, I typically let the fur babies explore around the living room and back yard with my fur babies unless the owner states they are not good with other animals. As for the pet owner house, I am open to whatever way you would like me to care for your baby. I offer drops ins, boarding, walks, and over night stays so my service vary based on the owners preference.

“Jeniffer was super accommodating and responsive during our pup’s stay. He was able to play with a bunch of pups and go on a group walk with his new friends. Pretty sure he’ll sleep well tonight.”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life, and they’ve always been part of the family. My home is cozy and dog-friendly, with two large pups of my own and a spacious, fenced backyard they can enjoy through a dog door while I’m home. When I’m away, all dogs stay safely inside. To keep things comfortable, I host no more than four dogs at a time (including my own). If you have more than two dogs from the same household, I may be able to make an exception depending on their size and needs. I know how nerve-wracking it can be to leave your pup with someone new, so I’m happy to send daily updates and pictures to give you peace of mind. Your dog will be treated like family here! Get $20 off your first booking with me https://www.rover.com/sit/annetn64528 I work from home so I’m home most of the day. I try to limit time away from home to 4 hours a day. If I’m watching a puppy or a dog that cannot be alone for 4 hours, I can accommodate if my schedule is open. For long stays, there are some days i may be out longer than 4 hours if I have an event but I will let you know before booking. Your pup is welcome to lounge on the furniture and will receive plenty of love, attention, and playtime from me and my two dogs and will have free roam in the house. We have a communal toy bin and a spacious, fenced backyard accessible via a dog door when I’m home. When I leave, the dogs are secured inside the house. Until your pup is ready to free roam unsupervised with my dogs, they’ll have a safe, separate hallway complete with a comfy dog bed, toys, and water, so they can still see and enjoy the company of the others for the times I am not home . If your fur baby prefers a crate while I’m away, I can do that only if they genuinely enjoy their crate and look forward to settling in. If your dog enjoys walks, I’m happy to take them for a drive to a nearby park or a friendly neighborhood walk. I care about a harmonious environment, so I can only host dogs that get along well with others. My home is best suited for pups who love to play and mingle, and I currently host up to two small to medium dogs to keep things cozy. We love puppies.

“Becky is the best dog sitter ever. She takes such good care of my dog Charlie, she’s very reliable and the best dog photographer. I know my dog is safe and happy when he’s with her. Thank you again!”

About: I am a longtime cat and dog lover with over 25 years experience in caring for pets. I also have experience working in healthcare and love to care for senior pets, puppies, kittens and pets of all ages and sizes. I am recently retired from my 30 plus years in Healthcare and am looking forward to my dream job of providing your fur babies care in my loving home. I have a fenced yard with a nearby park in Woodlake neighborhood for outdoor fun. But most days we will be cuddling on the couch.

“Julie and her sister Sandy are wonderful. My miniature Dachshund, Bruno, has been going to their home for doggie daycare for some time now. They have gone above and beyond taking him with very little notice and picking him up and returning him. I feel very confident about his safety while in their care. Recently, I had an emergency and they picked him up without any notice and I boarded him with them for 3 days. This was the first time he was away from home and his first night he was nervous, but they gave him lots of reassurance and comfort. I highly recommend them to anyone that is looking for a loving and caring doggie daycare and boarding in a home environment.”

“My dog seems to enjoy the experience with this dog sitter! Great communication with pictures of him enjoying plenty of toys and a nice walk. Highly recommend for a fun and caring dog daycare service.”

“Nelly was very communicative and made sure my dog was able to have a slow introduction with her pack. Sandwich came back ready for a big nap after his stay so I know he had a big day! I’m happy he had a good stay with Nelly 😊”
