About: Growing up with Vets as parents, animals have been a huge part of my life. Whether it’s walking your dog or house sitting, i’m there. Hey! I'm Zach Walsh. I'm a recent college graduate who is currently seeking employment in my desired field but am having some troubles finding a full time job, so looking to make some extra cash. I have a lifelong love for animals. Growing up in a family of veterinarians, I've been surrounded by pets and animal care my entire life. I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy and compassionate to care for your furry family members, and I would be honored to help. I am available for dropping in and walking your dog or even staying the night and house sitting. I currently have 4 dogs and 3 cats. All are well taken care of and dogs are walked daily. Throughout my life, retrievers have been a big part of my life, most of my experience is with goldens and labs but i’ve walked and house sitted a variety of breeds.

“Devi was great. We’ve already booked with her again! Devi was very responsive when booking. We were impressed by how professional she was when she came over for a meet-and-greet. Most importantly, she handled our easily overexcited, enormous dog perfectly—she was calm, let him set the pace, and he quickly relaxed with her. Devi sent updates and pics, so we were able to enjoy our weekend without worries.”


“Dani was so sweet and great with our dogs! She played ball with them in our backyard. She sent us photos and updates daily. When we got home our house was cleaner than we left it! Definitely recommend Dani.”


“Esmerilda took excellent care of our girl who can be a little shy. She arrived exactly in time and sent frequent updates and pictures during the evening. We will definately contact Esmerilda when we need help again!”

“Valorie was great! She communicated with me well, sent pictures, and was honest. My pups seem led to have a good time :) Sh is so nice and genuine and took such great care of the house too.”

I have a large yard for your dog(s) to play in and take walks, as well as crates if wanted for boarding. I am available to take your dog on daily walks. I also can do animal care for cats and other pets/farm animals.

“Elana was great with our dog Winnie! She was very communicative and responsible and sent lot of pictures. Winnie seemed to like her a lot, which made us comfortable leaving her in Elana’s care”

Let’s make tails wag and hearts happy Pet care is a natural part of my everyday life. With over 16 years of experience in pet sitting and dog walking — and a background working in a veterinary clinic — caring for animals isn’t just something I do, it’s something I truly love. I’ve shaped my schedule around being there when your pets need me most, whether it’s daily walks, drop-in visits, or extended stays. I approach each day with patience, reliability, and a calm energy that animals respond to. Your pets’ comfort and well-being are always my top priority. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I do everything I can to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved.

About: I am a student at UC Davis school of Veterinary medicine with training in behavioral modification, emergency medicine, and general animal health and wellness. I also have experience with exotic pets such as birds, reptiles, and small mammals. I am currently out of school on break so I can be very flexible with scheduling. I am willing to make check in trips or stay overnight. I have one pup of my own who lives with two other dogs. Our pups have 24 hrs access to a back yard and get plenty of attention and all the toys they could possibly wish to chew.

About: I have experience with all sorts of pets like chickens, turtles, cats, and dogs. I love them all! ❤️ I am Cat and Dog First Aid Certified through the American Red Cross, Certified Pet Expert (CPS-DW), and an active member of Pet Sitters International (PSI). I am currently working on becoming a CPPS-Certified Professional Pet Sitter. Though I am semi-new to pet sitting, I am constantly learning about pet care and safety. Having grown up with pets, I understand they become members of the family. I cared for my sister’s former miniature poodle Sandy and have grown up with various breeds like chihuahuas and a dachshund. Though I do not own pets anymore due to my lifestyle and living arrangements, I miss being around them. My friends told me about Rover and I jumped right in! I offer personalized care, including daily walks and playtime. I ensure your pet feels safe, loved, and well-cared for as if it’s one of my own! As a Certified Pet Expert, I believe in using positive reinforcement instead of negative methods like e-collars or leash corrections, as they can harm trust and lead to aggression. While I'm not a dog trainer and won't suggest how to teach your dog, I'll happily follow your instructions and support your dog's training (: I work part-time and my availability changes weekly, so feel free to reach out for specific dates/times. My work shifts lasts around 4-5 hours so I may need to step out for house sits but drop-ins are typically are more flexible with this schedule. I update my availability regularly though the specific times may vary because of my part time. I’m flexible and happy to accommodate your pet’s needs whenever possible! For drop-ins for cats I take care of pet duties like food/water and the litter box. Then I either play with them or snuggle. I don’t mind going a bit over time to build trust, play, and spend time with them depending on their needs (: While walking your pet, I ensure they get plenty of exercise and mental stimulation, following their preferred pace and routine. I prioritize safety by keeping them on a leash and being mindful of their surroundings. For house sitting, I maintain your pet’s routine, providing meals, playtime, and cuddles. I make sure they feel secure and comfortable in their own home. I also handle light tasks like cleaning up after your pet, keeping the litter box tidy, and sending you regular updates on their well-being. Your pet will feel loved and well cared for while you're away!

Xander A.
“Xander will make an excellent sitter for all pet owners that are lucky enough to hire him. As a fourth year vet student and dog and reptile owner, Xander has lots of experience at providing excellent care for his and other animals. He not only understands the importance of husbandry, but he has the clinical wherewithal to notice when they express abnormal behavior and show clinical signs. Xander grew up in Tulare, cow capitol of the country. So, he has experience with large animals and rambunctious animals too, like the Queensland Heelers, that his father has bred for decades. He is a calming presence and is also very respectful of other people and their property. I could not recommend another friend above Xander amongst all of my friends in Davis at the moment.”
