“I had to take a last minute trip for about a week and luckily Michelle’s schedule was flexible enough to watch my little guy. My dog is super high energy and she was very thorough in exercising him whenever she visited! It was my first time leaving him for that long, but having Michelle watch him eased my worries completely. I know he had a great time playing with her every day! Highly recommend!”

“Markita is awesome! She checked in on my two kitties over the holidays and was super responsive and clearly cared about their wellbeing. She even offered to go out and pick up more cat food when she saw the bag was low, which was so above and beyond what I would ask and was very thoughtful. I would totally recommend her”

“Danielle is always great with our cat Greg! Always brushes his teeth makes sure he’s got lots of food and keeps his litter box clean! She also always stays the full amount of time for his drop ins so you know your pet is getting lots of play and love while she’s there. Thanks Danielle!!”
“Alexandra is amazing. I was nervous to leave my puppy and home with someone I didn’t know, but she answered all my questions and met me in person. She has been extremely responsible. She has been flexible and great with my puppy who has his behavioral challenges. He looks forward to her visits every day. I strongly recommend her to anyone!”


About: What sets me apart is my experience with dogs of all ages, sizes, and energy levels. I fostered puppies and adult dogs for four years, which gave me hands-on experience caring for dogs with different personalities, needs, and backgrounds. I also grew up with working dogs, so I am very comfortable handling high-energy breeds and understand the exercise, structure, and attention they require. Whether it's a playful puppy, an active working dog, or a senior pet needing extra patience and care, I adapt to each animal's individual needs. I am confident handling dogs on walks and prioritize safety, consistency, and positive interactions. I am comfortable working with reactive dogs as well :) I am a full time student looking to fill my summer by taking care pets instead of adopting more! I have extremely open availability, whatever your pet needs Ill be there. I wholeheartedly understand the anxiety and stress that can come with leaving your pet in someone else's care, I have those same feelings when it comes to my own pets. Because of that, I will treat your pet as if they were my own, providing them with the same love, attention, and care that I would expect for my animals. Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness, along with your peace of mind, are always my top priorities. While I am caring for your pet, I will be readily available by text or phone and happy to provide updates, photos, and videos to help you feel connected and reassured while you're away. 🐾
About: PLEASE NOTE: My care services are exclusively for Doodle/Poodle or other non-shedding breeds only due to my husband’s allergies. I’ve always been a huge animal lover and grew up with all kinds of pets. If I could have a farm, I would! Two years after getting married, my husband and I decided it was time to add a dog to our little family, so we adopted our miniature Goldendoodle, Mason. He’s now 8 years old and is still our very loved and spoiled pup. ☺️ I WFH full-time and would love to care for your pup! 🐾 Feel free to message me with your dates. I’m happy to provide the best care possible for your fur baby. ❤️ We live in a two-story house with plenty of space for your pup to run around indoors, as well as a spacious yard with artificial dog friendly grass that’s perfect for playtime.

“I'm so grateful for Natalie caring for Winston. She was so wonderful with sharing pictures and providing daily updates. I so appreciated not worrying about my boy. He felt super loved too. I could tell when I got back that he wasn't as stressed as when I normally leave town. Thank you so much!!! I'll be in touch soon.”

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 hard 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/ routine if you keep one so that their time away is comfortable and seamless.

About: I have worked with cats and dogs of all ages & sizes for the past 3 years with my previous employer, McCulloch Pet Sitting located in Las Vegas, NV. I recently have moved to Sacramento and am looking to continue pet sitting. I am Cat & Dog CPR & First Aid certified through American Red Cross. I currently am available for drop in visits and walks as of right now. Availability for overnight stays may open up in the near future. I am comfortable with pets of all kinds and will gladly perform proper feeding, walking and playing routines to ensure that they are well taken care of in the times requested.
About: I've taken care of animals all my life! When the cats or dogs needed a bath i bathed them. Ive had 2 of my very own dogs for a short while and i took care of them they were always so happy! Well I only have a part time job at subway and it's actually convenient for me to petsit. I need something to fill in my time and animals are nice to have around you, I hold onto my stuffed animals wishing it was a real pet right now. I feed them, I can bathe them if asked to, I can treat them, I'll keep your pets safe, healthy and happy! I love to play fetch with dogs and I love playing with cats. Cats are very silly sometimes
“Michelle was wonderful and took such good care of my kitties. A couple unexpected things happened and Michelle stepped up and took care of them (like resetting the litter box, taking out the trash, and cleaning up some hairballs). She communicated with me consistently and took the best photos! I’d definitely love to have Michelle look after my kitties again.”

About: I am a longtime cat and dog lover with over 25 years experience in caring for pets. I also have experience working in healthcare and love to care for senior pets, puppies, kittens and pets of all ages and sizes. I am recently retired from my 30 plus years in Healthcare and am looking forward to my dream job of providing your fur babies care in my loving home. I have a fenced yard with a nearby park in Woodlake neighborhood for outdoor fun. But most days we will be cuddling on the couch.
“Payton did a wonderful job with our pups. She was on time and played with them outside. She has to stay and watch them eat their meals because one of them (Panda Sandoval) is a food thief. Buster Posey is a puppy mill pup so he has some issues. She won him over though. Thank you Payton!”


“Jenna was great with our two cats while we were out of town for the week! She made sure they had wet and dry food, water and clean litter boxes each day. Great communication and sent us pictures each day”

“Jalisa was absolutely fantastic! She took such good care of Lilo while I was away. She was very reliable, communicative, and was available on such short notice! Jalisa kept me updated and provided photos that put my mind at ease. Lilo warmed up to her right away, which speaks volumes about her gentle nature. I came home to a happy, healthy kitty and a tidy house. Thank you Jalisa!!!”

About: note: I primarily board and daycare puppies - check out my puppy rate (lower). Adults are at a higher rate and considere on case by case basis due to my dogs being attacked in the past. Only small/medium submissive adults will be considered. We love puppies! I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life, and they’ve always been part of the family. My home is cozy and dog-friendly, with two large pups of my own and a spacious, fenced backyard they can enjoy through a dog door while I’m home. When I’m away, all dogs stay safely inside. To keep things comfortable, I host no more than four dogs at a time (including my own). If you have more than two dogs from the same household, I may be able to make an exception depending on their size and needs. I know how nerve-wracking it can be to leave your pup with someone new, so I’m happy to send daily updates and pictures to give you peace of mind. Your dog will be treated like family here! Get $20 off your first booking with me https://www.rover.com/sit/annetn64528 I work from home so I’m home most of the day. I try to limit time away from home to 4 hours a day. If I’m watching a puppy or a dog that cannot be alone for 4 hours, I can accommodate if my schedule is open. For long stays, there are some days i may be out longer than 4 hours if I have an event but I will let you know before booking. Your pup is welcome to lounge on the furniture and will receive plenty of love, attention, and playtime from me and my two dogs and will have free roam in the house. We have a communal toy bin and a spacious, fenced backyard accessible via a dog door when I’m home. When I leave, the dogs are secured inside the house. Until your pup is ready to free roam unsupervised with my dogs, they’ll have a safe, separate hallway complete with a comfy dog bed, toys, and water, so they can still see and enjoy the company of the others for the times I am not home . If your fur baby prefers a crate while I’m away, I can do that only if they genuinely enjoy their crate and look forward to settling in. If your dog enjoys walks, I’m happy to take them for a drive to a nearby park or a friendly neighborhood walk. I care about a harmonious environment, so I can only host dogs that get along well with others. My home is best suited for pups who love to play and mingle, and I currently host up to two small to medium dogs to keep things cozy. We love puppies.
Richardson Village pet parents share their Rover experiences
Markita was very good with our dog and appreciated the extra attention she gave to dog while we were away. This was our first time having someone drop in in our home and I was very comfortable with her. She is very professional and communicated with us throughout the visit. I would definitely book her again.

Natalie did a great job. She was thorough and efficient. Her care for my cat showed her love for animals and especially my kitty cat. She was very responsive to any real time questions I had while I was gone. On top of caring so well for my cat she gathered my mail, watered plants, put out the trash cans and change lighting in the house every day. Will definitely hire her again.

Aimee was wonderful! She cared for mine and my husband’s two cats while we were away. One of our cats is known for not being so friendly towards strangers, but she took to Aimee right away, which gave me a lot of reassurance. She provided excellent care for our cats and I hope she is available again next time we need a sitter.

This is the second time Kat has looked after our kitties while on vacation and I cannot begin to describe how amazing she is. She has such a way with animals that our cats took to her instantly and they were so well cared for while we were gone (which eased so much of our anxiety!). She sent honest, thorough, and meaningful updates and really gave such diligent care to our kiddos. She’s the best!
I would highly recommend Alyssa! She did an amazing job caring for our 3 dogs. She was great about communicating and sending pictures. It was also very last minute and she made it all so easy! Thank you Alyssa! We look forward to using your services again in the future :)

Holly is a true animal guardian. She takes care of my two cats with special medical needs, earning their love and trust to give insulin injections, syringe meds, and capsule meds. I always feel at ease when Holly takes care of my sweet boys. Thank you, Holly!
