“The best dog walker ever truly a gem, She understands dogs and knows what she is doing. great work ethic and understanding. My dogs are trained and large breed she will not let them dominate her.., which is a plus for me most people I have met on the app did not have a firm grasp on dog handling - she does.”

About: I have had a golden retriever growing up and in 2020 adopted 2 lab puppies. I have a lot of experience with playing, walking, feeding, and just being around animals. Pet care will fit into my daily routine because I have quite a bit of free time that I would like to spend with animals! I care for my pets by walking, feeding, playing, and hanging out with them daily. I make sure to give them attention and a lot of pets!

“Taylor was amazing with my fur babies ! She made sure my babies were walked, fed, and had their water. She stayed and cuddled with them and most importantly my babies trusted her. I definitely recommend Taylor 1000% !! I will definitely hire her again and will recommend her to all my friends and family. Don’t hesitate to hire Taylor you won’t be disappointed at all !”


“Cali and Lucky look forward to seeing Shelby and going on a walk with her. She gives them ample opportunities to sniff, stalk squirrels, and walk around their neighborhood. Thanks, Shelby!”


About: I absolutely adore dogs and their personalities. I had an older pup of my own, who has been with me all over California. Unfortunately my beautiful girl has passed. Now I have a 1 year old rambunctious little aussiedoodle named Thorin and all he wants do is play. He absolutely loves making new friends. I am always the first one to be called by any friend in need to watch their pets. I’m confident that Thorin and I can give your pet a safe space for them to have fun and you to relax and not worry. I currently work 2 miles from my place of residence. Your dog will usually just go with me to work every day, we have a bed/area set up (pet friendly environment) or if preferred the dog to stay home. My man comes with me, so we do the same for yours. Also, they would be walked first thing in the morning, on my lunch, after work and then again before bed. I have a crate if thats needed for your dog/your dog likes to have his/her own safe space. My house is free to roam for the animals. I have a big backyard they can play in.

About: I have experience walking dogs of all sizes and temperaments, and I’m confident handling even the strongest pullers. One notable experience involved safely guiding two large Great Danes to their kennel, despite their powerful pulling. My calm, confident approach ensures dogs feel secure and understood. I’m currently enrolled in a professional dog training program to continue building my skills and provide the highest quality care and support for the dogs I work with. I love having at least two days heads up but things happen and I understand that. So on special cases I can make an exception. I always prioritize the safety and well-being of every dog in my care. I understand that some pets may feel anxious when separated from their families, so I do everything I can to ensure they feel comfortable, secure, and loved. My goal is to create a positive and reassuring experience for every dog, treating them with the same care and attention I would give my own

“He was very kind even though my dogs were a bit nervous and gave him a hard time, he even stayed longer to make sure they got their walk and fed them for me. 10/10!!”


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 had 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 if you keep one so that the time away is comfortable and seamless for your pet.

About: My love for animals began in the womb and by the time I turned 2, I had already learned how to care for my puppy. I've been Dr. Dolittle ever since! I absolutely know how to make pets feel comfortable and loved, creating a warm, safe space where your pets can truly relax while you’re away. My home is home for your pets while they’re away from home. I have experience administering medications and providing senior care to dogs, and I’ve used that knowledge in my role as a foster for two local animal shelters here in Sacramento. This hands on experience means I can give your senior dog the extra attention they deserve. Additionally, I’m pretty good at training dogs, which allows me to help reinforce good behavior while they’re with me. I'm no expert but I do apply what I've learned and it works. I do offer light grooming and bathing to keep your pet looking and feeling great and smelling even better- full disclosure, once again I am no expert at grooming nor am I a professional but I have groomed my own animals for years with no issues and will gladly do the same for your pet if needed. Whether it's taking them for walks, playing fetch, catch-me-if-you-can, or just cuddling up on the bed, my goal is to ensure they have a fantastic time filled with love and attention. I am a stay at home mom! This allows me plenty of time to dedicate to pet care. I can provide attentive playtime, feeding, and grooming throughout the day. My flexible routine enables me to ensure that each pet receives the love and care they deserve while I also balance my responsibilities at home. Whether it’s playing, feeding, or simply spending time with the animals, I can easily fit pet care into my day to day activities. PSA!! *DO NOT BOOK IF YOU ARE NOT SURE! DO NOT BOOK IF YOU WILL LOOK FOR OTHER PROVIDERS INSTEAD! DO NOT BOOK IF YOU PLAN TO USE MY TIME AS LAST RESORT! I HAVE A DAILY SCHEDULE I FOLLOW AS WELL AND WOULD PREFER TO KEEP IT & ONLY ADJUST BASED ON FOR SURE BOOKINGS!* THANKS!! In my home, I provide a safe and comfortable environment for pets with a gated backyard and a fenced front yard where they can play and explore. Whether it's play time in the yard or a cozy spot to relax indoors, I prioritize the wellbeing and happiness of every pet in my care.

About: Hi, I’m Victoria! I’ve been a lifelong dog lover and have cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities. My first pup was a fun-loving Maltese, and now my fiancée and I have the sweetest 9-year-old golden retriever who is incredibly patient and friendly. I truly enjoy spending time with dogs—playing, walking, cuddling, and making sure they feel safe and happy while you’re away. I know how important it is to find someone you trust with your pup, and I promise to treat them like family. Whether they need extra belly rubs, long walks, or just a cozy place to relax, I’ll make sure they’re comfortable and well cared for. I’m experienced in handling different energy levels and personalities, so whether your dog is playful or prefers quiet companionship, I’ll tailor my care to their needs. Our home is LGBTQ+ friendly! As part of the LGBTQ+ community ourselves, we welcome all pet parents and their furry companions with open arms. I’d love to meet your furry friend and give them the attention they deserve! Feel free to reach out with any questions—I’m happy to chat and see if we’re a great fit. I work 4-5 days of the week and my fiancée works at home. Between the 2 of us, we are available to care for your pup all week! I sometimes work Saturdays, but my fiancée does not and so our house is usually available for your long weekend getaways. 😊 We live in a home and have a fenced yard. It’s a small backyard with no grass but it works and we find ways to still have playtime back there when weather permits! We are comfortable with crates if your dog is crate trained. And we will make sure they feel safe with all their own things. Our golden retriever has anxiety and has had trust issues with other dogs if he feels scared of them. He has been boarded with sitters and other dogs before (he also has many dog cousins), it just takes him an hour to warm up. We will always make sure the introduction and adjustment period is as smooth as it can be. Our dog has a corner in our room he feels the safest and he goes there on his own when he feels overwhelmed. We know how to read his emotions and we know we can balance your dogs emotions too!

About: I’ve had to maintain many accidental litters at my grandparents house. This involved cleaning up, caring for, and training the pets they decided to keep. I take care of all of the animals in my house, and accommodate accordingly!! I am finding something to do before I go to college. As my college journey starts I need to save as much as possible, and am willing to work whenever necessary!! I make sure that my dog, who is an English Bulldog, has his medication and is clean in all of his cute little rolls. I have to watch for any allergic reactions he may have, and I keep away from certain foods. Having a dog with many health issues has prepared me for anything that’s coming my way.

Old North Sacramento dog parents share their Rover experiences
Kalina has definitely exceeded my expectations as a dog walker. She is responsible, communicative, and very caring/loving towards my fur babies. At first contact, she responded very quickly and was willing to meet the next day on such short notice. Kalina was very patient with my boy, Ghost, especially when he hid under the bed for 30 mins during the first scheduled walk. She contacted me immediately to figure out next steps. Kalina wanted to respect my dog's comfortability, which I very much appreciated. The same day, Ghost warmed up to her and both of my dogs ended up enjoying the outdoors. Kalina made sure to communicate when she arrived at the house and left, also included pictures for me to see. I can tell that both Ghost and Hazel love her! Kalina did such an amazing job and I would recommend her to anyone seeking help with their fur babies. They are in great hands with her!

I have never used Rover before Emma and I can say she made the experience so easy! She was easy to contact, great with communication/pics, patient with planning and my questions. I would highly recommend her! I feel safe using her services to walk my baby again :-)

Tammy has been wonderful with my 2 dogs. She's great at paying attention to the dogs' needs and going at their pace. I appreciate her ability to work with my schedule and be flexible. My dogs are comfortable with Tammy and she's been absolutely great to work with! I highly recommend her for anyone needing pet care.
