“Very responsible and a definite animal lover - not just a job for her!”
“Molly has been a great resource for when I don't want to leave my puppy in her crate for the whole day. Will continue to use her when needed!!”
About: People often say I have a way with animals. They always seem drawn to me immediately, even when they are wary of others. I feel honored that animals feel this way about me because I feel the same about them! I have cared for many dogs of all sizes as well as owned cats. I have volunteered at a dog rescue in Thailand that has many disabled dogs as well as fostered cats/kittens here at home. I am an empty nester and would love to care for your four legged family members while you are away. Although I will never replace you, I can provide love and safety until you return (and probably some treats and adventures too!) I'm currently not working and can dedicate my time to pet/house sitting and care. As you can see from my photo gallery, I love all animals and have volunteered at a dog rescue in Thailand, fostered kittens at home, and have seen very cool animals in the wild and at animal rescues/sanctuaries around the world. (I always vet them to make sure they are ethical and doing legit work) I have a large fenced yard and indoor space for cats or dogs. We have plenty of shade and are also willing to take pets with us on outings. I live with my husband and son and they also love and respect animals. As far as caring for pets at someone else's home, I can stay at your house or check in as often as needed. I will play with them, feed them, bathe them, take them places (if requested) and give them love. I know they miss their people and its not the same without you, but I do my best to make them feel safe and comfortable.
“Majesty was extremely responsive and a great resource for an admittedly last minute request for a pop in to let our dogs out while we were at a Christmas party. I felt that our house instructions were read and acknowledged thoroughly, and majesty was communicative and reliable about showing up on time. We’ll definitely hire majesty again.”
“Cynthia took good care of my kitten who alternates between needing play and lap naps. She’s very easy to coordinate with and was flexible in my changing schedule. I have no worry about the pets when I know she’s taking care of them. Thanks Cynthia!”
“Carly was an excellent communicator. She took lots of photos of the pets and wrote up a detailed account of her visit. She asked good questions at our meet and greet which gave me confidence in that she knows what she is doing.”
“Amy was wonderful! She kept me updated on the timing of her visits, sent reports and photos, and was a good pal to my cat Teri. I will definitely use her again when I travel!”
“Barbara took wonderful care of our cat. She was communicative, timely, and responsible. We have hesitated for years to go on vacation because we never felt confident about having anyone come to our home, but now that we’ve found Barbara, we are already booking our next vacation. Barbara is warm and friendly and clearly loves animals. She stayed in touch with us and provided updates and photos. We’re overjoyed to have found a trustworthy person to care for our cat. Highly recommended!”
“Katherine was very attentive and communicative while watching my dog. She gave me peace of mind that he was well cared for while I was out of town.”
About: Animals have always been a big part of my life. I’ve cared for dogs, cats, chickens, ducks, turkeys, goats, and even more exotic pets in both urban homes and rural off-grid environments. Whether it’s walks, belly rubs, or administering medicine, I treat every animal as a unique being with their own personality and needs. Friends and community members often turn to me for pet care because they know I genuinely love and respect animals as soulful companions. As an entrepreneur with a flexible schedule, I’m available for daytime visits, overnight stays, and extended care. I work remotely and manage my own hours, so I can easily tailor my availability to your pet’s routine—including last-minute needs or irregular schedules. Your pet’s well-being is my top priority. I offer a calm, loving, and secure environment where your animals can feel safe and at ease. I take time to learn your pet’s specific needs, preferences, and routines to make sure they feel comfortable and cared for in your absence. I’m attentive to behavioral cues and quick to adapt to ensure trust is never broken. Whether we’re enjoying outdoor play or snuggling indoors, I create a grounded and peaceful space for them to thrive.
About: I will care for your pets as if they were my own. I have experience with a wide range of animals and personality types starting from a young age. I have a flexible schedule and can work from anywhere with decent internet, so your animals will benefit from an attentive, experienced carer who goes the extra mile to make sure they are safe and comfortable. I have experience with all sizes and ages of dogs and cats, as well as farm animals. I can work with special medical needs or elderly pets.
About: Hello! My name is Sarah and I would love to spend time with your pup while you're out adventuring!

Safety is my top priority, and I always ensure a secure environment for your furry friend. I enjoy walking, running, and hiking with dogs, and love spending time outside playing their favorite games. I can’t wait to meet you and your pup soon! As a dog mom to two high-energy dogs, pet care is already a natural part of my daily and weekly routine. I also work part-time allowing me the flexibility to meet all your pups scheduling needs, keeping them safe and happy.

“Mel did a great job taking care of my cat, he took to her quite quickly which made me feel ver comfortable leaving him I her care. I recommend her!”
About: I have owned and cared for pets my entire life. I'm recently retired from a long career as a professional equestrian and horse trainer, and I'm excited to begin this journey of offering pet care services to the community! I have experience with all types and ages of pets ... from very young to very senior. I have experience administering medications, giving injections, and basic first aid. My lifestyle is active, and I'm happy to provide whatever exercise that your pet needs, whether that is a long trail hike, or simply walks around the neighborhood. And lots of love and snuggles of course :) I also have extensive horse experience, and limited experience with other livestock, and I'm happy to provide services for those animals as well. I currently work from home and have an extremely flexible schedule, which allows me to work around whatever your pet care needs are. I have a reliable 4 wheel drive vehicle, so I can get to some of the further out Nevada County destinations no problem. I pride myself on being punctual, organized and reliable, and you can rest assured that your pet(s) and home will receive attentive and loving care. I am happy to take care of any additional tasks that you might need around your home while you're away (checking mail, taking out trash, watering plants/garden, etc. )
About: Starting at the age of 12, I began volunteering at local animal shelters (Truckee Humane Society) as well as dog sitting for local Tahoe families. I am a huge advocate for taking time out of the day to get your pet exercise whether that be a leashed walk on a paved trail or an 8 mile hike into the wilderness. I work full time however, I am able to bring well trained social dogs to work. If you prefer for me to not take your dog to work, I live 10 minutes from my home so it is very convenient for me to let your dog out multiple times throughout the day! I love to take pictures of the adventures I bring pets on and keep the owner/owners updated. My friends would definitely describe me as a HUGE animal lover! I have references upon request.
“Sasha dropped in on my dog Willow a few times this week and I could not have asked for a better person to take care of her. Willow is very nervous around strangers, generally very distrustful and defensive, but she seemed to connect with Sasha from the start at the meet and greet. Sasha was so sweet and understanding with her, never pushing Willow to interact more than she wanted to. When she dropped in, Sasha took Willow outside and played with her (sent me the most adorable video!!), refilled her water, gave her some treats, and cuddled with her on the couch. Before she left on the last day she even cleaned up some of Willow's toys, which I am always terrible about doing. It was such a sweet gesture when I myself was already nervous about someone coming over, it put me right at ease. ? Sasha was very communicative and went above and beyond dropping in on Willow and I couldn't be more grateful. I will definitely contact her again for future drop ins when I need them!”
About: Offering a safe home away from home, compassionate care, and peace of mind for pet owners is something that all pet sitters should be offering. I go far beyond this standard providing both care and training. Since I was a child, dogs and cats have gravitated toward me and I've always enjoyed their companionship; you can almost always find me with at least one dogs around. It's never been an unruly mass of teeth and paws though; I've always taken the time to teach my furry friends to walk on leash, to have immediate recall, to be polite in kitchen, and to use their voices kindly. I do the same with every animal that I am given care of, gently coaching them to be civil, furry companions while showering them with love. I am currently working from home and set my own schedule. I have a set daily morning and evening walk which your pup(s) will join. During the day, you pup(s) will have company of two dogs, three cats and plenty of pets from me. On weekends we go on adventure hikes. I have a fenced yard and two friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company during the day. I have crates, leashes, grooming tools and home made dog beds for all pet care needs.
About: I’ve taken care of all different kind of dogs and cats, I grew up around animals and I am truly an animal lover at heart. Friends and family have hired me to watch, walk, feed, bathe and care for their pets. I’m trustworthy, responsible and truly just want to make the time with your pet special. I’m currently working part time in the Palo Alto area and living in the San Jose area, my schedule is flexible and can be worked around your dog needs. Each experience is unique and catered to a specific dogs needs. Spacious living arrangements with room to cuddle, play and live. As well as space outside to run, play and walk. Each pet will be treated with what they need, extra walking? No problem! Extra belly runs? No problem! Bathing? No problem! Special feeding needs? No problem! I aim to make every pet and pet parents experience one of a kind.
About: I've spent the last 4 years volunteering with Ruff Pack Refuge. RPR specializes with rescuing special needs and elderly dogs. My responsibilities included cleaning kennels, administration of medications, dog walking, fostering dogs, e.t.c. Over the past couple of years I have enjoyed pet sitting for friends and family. I am available all the time I have a very flexible schedule and I am sure we can figure something out via text or call... I have a fenced yard, nice neighborhood to walk around, and a large comfy and soft couch for anyone to lounge around and relax if needed
About: I have experience caring for dogs aging from 8 weeks to 15 years. I had 4 dogs of my own, I now have 2. Experience includes: potty training, positive reinforcement, disciplining unwanted behavior with vocal tones and hand gestures, playing/exercise, cuddling/affection, feeding, giving medicine, etc. My schedule is mostly flexible right now so I am available to do any day of the week and can work in the early afternoons to late afternoons. I have a fenced yard and two adult males that are mostly friendly. One is 3 and is high energy and loves to wrestle and play while the other is older and more relaxed.

She has also managed after school programs for kids. Many different organizations have given a lot of trust to Sarah to make sure the kids in her care are safe, have fun, and grow as individuals.

Natalie S.
“Natalie is a natural dog lover. She indiscriminately cares for all pooches, regardless of their size or breed. She is firm with them when needed, but spoils them with tons of love and treats, almost as if you're at your grandparent's house as a child. Natalie has a large house with plenty of land to let the dogs run around on. She is great about taking dogs to the lake or on a hike. From first meeting Natalie, you can tell she is a natural dog person with tons of love to give.”

Serafima K.
“Serafima has a way with dogs, and has watched my dog Walt on several occasion's. Walt is a rescue and has extremely bad separation anxiety. Initially, Serafima and her dog stayed in my home while I was away to help Walt feel more at ease on my first time away from him. Walt was well cared for this time, and every other time Serafima has watched him. Walt grew up in isolation and was never really socialized. So, to see his excitement to see Serafima and her dog when we ran into them in town was a testament to the level of care Serafima provides. I'd highly recommend Serafima to anyone looking for someone to watch their best friend!”
