“We were very pleased with Nora. She took excellent care of our two pups and sent lots of photos to keep us up to date on how they were doing. She stayed in our home and left it spotless. We will definitely use her again in the future.”

“Rachel was great! We have a Saint Bernard and 2 cats and they loved her. She sent us photos while we on vacation and gave us regular updates. This was the first time we have left our pets with anyone, and Rachel was very respectful of our pets and our space. We were very apprehensive about hiring a random person to care for our pets, but the second we met Rachel we were put at ease. Rachel asked us questions about the care of our pets that we hadn't thought about, which gave us the confidence that she knows what she doing. She is amazing and we will definitely rebook with her.”

“Marissa was awesome with our anxious dog, Toby! She gave us great updates with pictures and I could tell he was having a great time with her. He got plenty of walks and snuggles! She also left our house so clean. We are so glad to have found Marissa - she’s very genuine and caring and we are looking forward to having her watch Toby again!”

“Negin was an excellent cat-sitter - prompt, responsible, attentive to detail, a good communicator with cats and humans alike. She immediately vibed with our eccentric kitties and won their trust. We returned to happy cats and a clean house. Many thanks, Negin!”

“Mary was amazing! She made us feel so comfortable leaving our dog with her (our first time leaving him with someone besides family). She sent adorable photos throughout the week. She communicated with us prior to, during and after the house sitting. I think our dog Zac wanted to go home with her! We will definitely call Mary again. So glad we found her! Kathy & Brian & Zac”

“Adelaide did an amazing job watching over our dog and cat! We were away for 5 days on vacation and Adelaide made it easer being away from them for so long. We knew they were in good hands!.. Will definitely be booking her again!”

“Jiajie was SUPBERB! She gave outstanding care to our puppy! Our puppy had a fantastic time with her (and her sweet dogs). Her communication, while we traveled overseas, was top-notch!!! She was beyond the best- highly highly highly recommend her and will definitely book with her again!”

“Audrey was incredibly communicative in specialized instructions for my anxious dog! She was very caring of all the pets, and I would absolutely recommend her for any pet sitting services.”

“Alyssa is great. I can always trust her to take care of my senior chihuahua. If you’re looking for someone reliable and trustworthy with your special doggos, I highly recommend her”

“Nicole was wonderful with our Aldo!!! She is a true dog lover and cared for him as if he was her own. She was also extremely flexible, when we had to ask her to come 6 hours earlier than the original scheduled start time!! Nicole made sure our boy had fun, got his allergy medication, and stayed busy to keep him from missing us too much which we so appreciate!! We will 100% be booking Nicole again ??”

“Chrissy accepted a very last minute request to watch two of my dogs. She took time to do the meet and greet even though it was last minute. Chrissy was wonderful and will definitely recommend. You can tell she has a love of animals and that shows in how she cared for them. She communicated often and send lots of pics while we were away. Thank you Chrissy!”

“The best gift when you can't take your companions on a trip is to know someone will take care of them and give you a peace of mind. Ashley did. She is amazing and is a great communicator. I left behind a 14 year old blob and a 6 years skittish lab and I was worried about the younger pup. It was the 14 year old senior that kept Ashley up at night. Ashley kept me posted on the situation, we kept the communication open to make sure Hunter is ok. Things happened but the best way to know how awesome your substitute is, is to experience their problem solving ability. Ashley got everything under control. I highly recommend Ashley and would love to get her help again. She is definitely more than 5 stars rating.”

“Suhani stayed in our home and cared for our two dogs while we traveled. She's friendly, professional, and great with dogs. She's clearly an experienced dog owner and I really appreciated her consistent check-ins. She took excellent care of our dogs and we won't hesitate to hire her again!”

“Jennifer was great! She did what we asked for and even more, which we appreciated. We received updates throughout the day and she got my Husky so tired that she doesn’t even want to get up for treats lol. We are working on our pup’s separation anxiety, so it was nice being able to count on Jennifer. We will definitely be booking again. Our pup gives her 5 stars too lol 🐶”

About: I currently work for VipPet care as a veterinary clinic assistant and have experience working in doggy daycare environments. I also volunteer at the shelters in Sacramento and have been volunteering at other shelters for the past 5 years. I have also taken care of many animals throughout my life, including dogs (all ages), cats, turtles, hamsters, fish, and rabbits. Through these experiences I have learned to work with animals of all shapes, sizes, and temperaments. I pride myself on finding a way to communicate effectively with both pet and parent to find what works best for everyone. Working with animals has been the most fulfilling experiences I have ever had. I absolutely adore all animals and I would love to help you out with your animal needs. I work as a vet assistant three times a week, so animals are part of my daily routine. This means I have plenty of time during the week to plan my schedule around feeding times, walks, play, and any special needs to make sure each pet gets the attention and care they deserve. When caring for pets in your home, I prioritize their comfort, safety, and routine. I make sure to follow all instructions provided by the pet parent, including feeding schedules, exercise needs, medication, and preferred routines. I will take time to build trust with each pet, whether it’s through gentle play, regular walks, or just keeping them company. I maintain a clean, calm environment and give each pet plenty of attention, love, and care. Communication is also important to me, I will provide updates and photos so pet parents feel reassured while they’re away. Working in the vet field has given me experience giving oral and injectable medications if needed as well.
About: I’ve taken care of all my pets growing up, showering, walking, playing with and training them. I’ve taken care of friends dogs aswell, by walking them and tending to there needs such a feeding walking, etc. Im currently a university student at UC Davis, and have lots of free time on Thursday, Friday, and weekends. I would love being around pets to also allow me some down time since animals also ease stress!! I have a lot of free time and would love to dog sit!! I live in an apartment that has a lot of open fields for running outside of the apartment, and since we’re in Davis there are so many nice parks around here!

“Anam was incredible. She met with me and my 1 year old German Shorthaired Pointer pup before our doggy sitting day and asked a ton of questions about my dog and her habits. Things I wouldn't have even of thought of to tell her, but important to having a smooth doggy sitting day. She actually suggested to doggy sit at my house instead of hers so that my pup would not feel stressed out in a new environment with a new person. I didn't even think of that, but it was a very valid point. I also have 2 cats. They would have been fine for the day, but she played with them too. Keep in mind, the day I needed her to doggy sit was Thanksgiving. She sacrificed her holiday to hang out with my animals. My dog has a knack for jumping our 6 foot fence so it was necessary to have a sitter. She even began to teach her how to fetch among other things. She doggy sat for me from 10:30am - 10:30pm. She was simply outstanding. I highly recommend her to anyone that needs their dog or cat watched for a couple of hours or an entire day.”

Chrissy went above and beyond when house sitting our energetic and mischievous 13-month-old golden retriever/Siberian husky mix for one week! She is very experienced with all kinds of dogs, is reliable, and gave regular updates. Thanks so much for your time and diligence Chrissy!! Would highly recommend her!

Mehma was fantastic! She took wonderful care of our dog and cat, along with our home while we were away. Really appreciated how responsive she was too, checking in with photos of our pets throughout the day. We’d be lucky to have Mehma pet sit for us again!!

Nora was amazing with my two pitties! They are still working on some of their manners and have some weird quirks but Nora seemed to handle them perfectly and sent lots of pictures of them snuggling and hanging out which I love to see when I’m away. I felt comfortable that they were in good hands and will definitely be booking with her again in the future :)

Great cat sitter from start to finish. Nayzeth followed all instructions perfectly, provided consistent updates, and clearly understands cat behavior as she does have 2 of her own. Boots, who is usually shy, warmed up quickly, which says a lot and everything was neat and tidy when I returned.
