About: I have been a dog mom my whole life, from small terriers to Great Danes, and have experience with dogs across the lifespan, as well as dogs of many different temperaments. I am also a lifelong cat owner and can provide excellent and personalized care for all of your furry friends. I have experience with medication dispensing, leash reactivity, and providing personalized enrichment and care, depending on the pet’s needs and personalities. Got a couch potato? Great, I'm an A+ cuddler! Got an adventurer? We'll go on field trips to local parks and walking trails! Whatever your pet needs, I am thrilled to provide. I am currently an MSW graduate student, so Rover is my primary source of income, and hanging out with your furry friends provides some bonus stress relief for me as well - a win-win! I am a full time MSW graduate student and Rover is my primary source of income, so my summer schedule is wide open, and my schedule while school is in session will be based around my class schedule. My own precious pup is not comfortable around other dogs, so I offer housesitting services in client's homes. I will honor whatever your pet's routine and preferences are, and am happy to schedule a meet up prior to our housesitting appointment to ensure that you and your fur baby feel comfy with me.

“Jacob is literal perfection! He cared for my multiple dogs and gave me peace of mind even though I am new to using Rover. He is meticulous, kind and goes above and beyond. He truly loves animals and I could not even imagine a better experience. He will be our Sitter for as long as he will have us. Thank you for loving my babies while I am not home. You made me a loyal fan and my sometimes reactive dogs adore you too! Perfection!”

“Carrie is great ! She responds quickly to messages and was able to help me out with my 2 dobermans with little notice. Check-ins at my house, feeding, and took them on an extra long walk. She also updates me with pictures and let me know when she arrived and left. I look forward to using Carrie for all my doggy needs. Thanks Carrie!”

“Natalie was great! She has great energy, handled my strong and enthusiastic dog expertly and patiently. She is an excellent communicator and my dog thinks she is awesome!”

About: I’m an experienced full-time pet caregiver with hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. I’ve raised and worked with breeds including Huskies, German Shepherds, Labs, Golden Retrievers, Whippets, Yorkies, Chihuahuas, Dachshunds, and more. In addition to my personal experience, I currently volunteer with Front Street Animal Shelter where I’ve received training in dog handling, fear-based behavior support, basic grooming, and working with traumatized or anxious animals. I’m comfortable with large breeds, leash pullers, reactive dogs, puppies, and senior pets. I focus on providing dependable care, structured routines, long engaging walks, and clear communication so owners always feel informed and confident while away from their pets. I treat every animal with patience, attentiveness, and respect for their individual needs and personality. I’m available for recurring walks, drop-ins, sitting, holidays, early mornings, late evenings, and last-minute bookings. I currently serve Elk Grove, Natomas, West Sacramento, Rocklin, Folsom, and surrounding Sacramento areas. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! Every morning I feed my animals by 730am and in the evenings by 500pm. I currently work part time and do not start my shifts before 930am. When feeding the animals, I spend time with them. My cat - I pet him after he finishes and brush him. With my dogs - I play frisbee and in the yard with them. We also go on at least 2 walks each day for exercise with the dogs. My cat is trained to be on a leash as well and goes for walks 1 time a week. For the dogs, we have a fenced in backyard and extra room in the house to play. We have toys and frisbees as well. At my clients house, I play with the animals in the back yard or house depending on area. Taking care to brush, water, and feed them. Giving the animals the attention they deserve and need while their family is gone. I stay attentive to their needs, moods, and energy levels to engage with them properly.

“Teri, is the best dog sitter, walker and friend! She loves Buddy as much as I do. I could not have selected a better person to care for my dog better! I love Teri!❤️🐾😘”

About: I’ve had animals my whole life (cats, dogs, birds, bunnies, reptiles, and more) so I’m pretty comfortable with all kinds of pets and personalities. I have a cat of my own and am very much the go-to auntie for a lot of other cats and dogs. I love getting to know each pet and making sure they feel safe, cared for, and a little spoiled while you’re away. I'm off work through mid-May, so my schedule is pretty open right now. Something consistent is always easier to plan for but I will do my best to be as available as possible! My cat is an indoor only cat at the moment. We do have a fenced in courtyard in our apartment that's rather spacious and shady as well!

“Roy is a family favorite. He’s so good with Kobe and really took his time given that our pup wasn’t feeling good after some treatment at the vet.”

About: I've spent over 10 years caring for dogs — from raising my own to fostering puppies through every stage of their early development. That hands-on experience means I know how to read a dog's needs, adapt to their personality, and keep them happy, comfortable, and safe whether you're gone for an hour or a week. What You Can Expect: Every dog in my care gets individualized attention — not a one-size-fits-all routine. I'm experienced with: 💊 Medication administration (oral, topical, and timed dosing) 🍽️ Scheduled feeding tailored to your dog's diet and routine 🎾 Regular playtime and enrichment to keep tails wagging 🔒 Safety-first supervision — your dog has my full attention, always Communication You Can Count On: I know how hard it is to leave your dog, so I make it easy to stay connected. Expect frequent photo and video updates, quick responses to messages, and honest check-ins throughout every stay. My clients tell me the updates are one of their favorite parts. Let's Chat: Every dog is different, and I love getting to know yours before we get started. Reach out to discuss your dog's needs, your schedule, and pricing — I'm happy to make it work. Why Your Dog Will Love Staying With Me: I work from home four days a week, which means your dog isn't waiting around — they're with me. Between meetings, we head out for walks, and I'm always close by for snuggles, play, or just keeping them company throughout the day. I know routines matter to dogs (and their owners), so I make it a priority to stick to your pup's existing schedule — same feeding times, same walk patterns, same bedtime rituals. The goal is for your dog to feel at home, not like they're somewhere new. A typical day looks like: 🌅 Morning walk to start the day right ☀️ Midday activity breaks woven around my work schedule 🐾 Afternoon walk or play session 🌙 Wind-down time with plenty of attention before bed Whether your dog needs lots of stimulation or just a calm, cozy companion, I'll adapt to what works best for them. A Safe, Calm, and Dedicated Space for Your Dog: Your dog will have my complete, undivided attention — I only take one dog at a time, and with no other pets or kids at home, the environment stays calm, low-stress, and focused entirely on them. A home they'll feel comfortable in: 🏡 One dog at a time — no competition for attention, ever 🔒 Secure home — doors locked at all times, no patios or escape points, so you can relax knowing they're safe 🌳 Park nearby for great walks — and for dogs who prefer a quieter route, I'm happy to take more private paths away from crowds and other animals 🎒 Always prepared — I bring backup water bowls and toys so your dog is never without what they need For in-home visits: I know your dog feels most comfortable in their own space, so I keep things low-key and let them set the pace. I stick to their existing routine and give them the time and space to warm up to me on their own terms — no rushing, no pressure.

About: I have loved and cared for dogs for many years, but my real training started with my own dog Haku. He has taught me patience, routine, and how to understand different dog personalities. I am used to daily walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and making sure dogs feel safe and comfortable. Haku is friendly with children, other dogs, and cats, so I understand the importance of proper introductions and calm environments. Every dog has their own personality, and I genuinely enjoy getting to know what makes each one unique. I work from home, so I get to spend most of my day around dogs. I’m available for boarding on weekends and flexible during weekdays. Your pup will have company, regular walks, and a steady routine instead of being left alone all day. Dogs can sense calm energy, and I bring that into my home. I keep things structured but relaxed. I respect each dog’s personality and never force interactions. Haku runs quality control and makes sure every guest feels welcome.

“Andrea has been walking my dog Jack for a a couple of weeks now and he has been so happy with her! He is skiddish and shy, but has taken very well to Andrea, which I think speaks well of her! They walk during lunch and he is so much more calmer in the afternoons and when I get home. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

About: Animals have been part of my life from the very beginning. My family raised and cared for pets of all kinds, including Maine Coon show cats, a golden retriever, and a yorkie. I grew up surrounded by them, learning early how to read behavior, provide steady care, and build trust with different personalities and species. The only time I ever lived without an animal in my home was during my first two years of service in the Air Force. Since then, I have continued to share my life with dogs, cats, and the occasional more unusual companion such as a bird, a ferret, and a snake. Every one of them has been loved and treated as family. These days I share my home with Daxter (my orange tabby) and Catarina and Beretina (two crazy torbie sisters) who keep life entertaining in all the best ways. I am a veteran currently in school and I work part time as a martial arts instructor. Outside of that, I enjoy drawing, playing guitar, and video games. Among my friends I have become the go to pet auntie because I care for their animals as if they were my own. My goal is to bring that same level of attentiveness and genuine care to every pet I look after. Whether they are shy, energetic, quirky, or easygoing, I meet each animal with patience, respect, and a calm presence so they feel safe while you are away. I currently work part time as a martial arts instructor during the day, but my schedule is extremely flexible to accommodate both you and your pets’ needs I care for every pet with a focus on respect, clear communication, and their individual comfort levels. Whether a cat or dog is shy, social, or a little spicy, I follow their cues and let them set the pace. With many years of experience, including caring for my own three cats (Daxter, Catarina, and Beretina), I’m very attentive to both physical and emotional needs and quick to notice changes in behavior or stress. Your peace of mind matters just as much as your pet’s. If you’re away, I provide consistent updates and photos as often as you’d like so you always know how they’re doing. I welcome specific instructions or preferences because every pet has their own routine and every owner has their own comfort level. My goal is simple: your pet feels safe and content, and you feel confident that they’re in good hands.

About: I have a young aussie who loves other dogs. Together we are super active. I’ve used positive reinforcement for training, and love dogs in general! I work from home and dogs can be with me during the day! I’m very active and my dog is very social so we get along well with most dog needs. I have a condo and have access to a dog park that is vacant most of the time. I also go out for hikes and to the river for the dogs exercise often.

About: • Experience with puppies and high-energy breeds • Potty training consistency and routine building • Comfortable with small to medium dogs • Can follow feeding schedules and medication instructions • Skilled with leash walking and structured outdoor time • Familiar with dog park etiquette and socialization Pet care is part of my daily routine, not an afterthought. I structure my schedule around the dogs in my care to ensure they receive consistent attention, exercise, and supervision throughout the day. On a typical day, dogs can expect: • Morning potty break and walk • Structured playtime and enrichment • Supervised social time if comfortable with other dogs • Midday check-ins and affection • Afternoon rest and downtime • Evening walk and wind-down routine

“I 100% trust my dog with Arianna! She always leaves notes about how he did on his walk and I really appreciate it! She gives me peace of mind while I’m at work. I know my dog is in good hands :)”
