House Sitting in Rio Linda

About: I’ve trained and cared for many dogs throughout my life, from agility training high energy puppies, to senior canine hospice. I’ve been a volunteer with the ASPCA since December of 2023 and have deployed to their cruelty recovery center in Ohio multiple times as a volunteer kennel technician. I currently work as a veterinary assistant at a small practice in Woodland, Ca I am currently working full time Tuesday-Friday 8am-5:30pm as a veterinary assistant, and Saturdays 8am to noon, so when I’m not at work, I love to spend my time giving your pet(s) the attention and structure that they deserve! I can stay overnight with your pet, or do daily check ins starting at 6 am. Any time I leave your pet unattended I will provide them with a safe form of enrichment to keep them busy.

“Ally was amazing! Our pup scratched himself a little bit while we were gone so we DoorDashed some things to take care of him and she was SO helpful! She applied the ointment to the wounds and made sure his cone was on and secure so he wouldn’t scratch at them. She was very communicative and made sure we were updated the entire time so we knew our baby was okay! Will definitely be booking her anytime we travel!”

“Ryan is wonderful with our pets! He is able to handle our 92 pound hyper 10 month old lab and our 15 year old anxious chihuahua. Ryan communicated the perfect amount with us during our trip and left our house in the same condition as when we left. We already have him booked for our next vacation! Thanks Ryan!”

“Alexis is fantastic! Immediately I noticed she had a nice peaceful energy, which is really important for my nervous girl. She gave me unprompted morning and evening updates with pictures, and never once did I worry or wonder how things were going. My home was also just as clean as I’d left it when I returned. Will absolutely be booking with her again, and for the long run! Thank you Alexis, Ms. Millie was so happy spending time with you! <3”

“We usually do drop ins for our kitties but did house sit this time and it worked out amazing! Jazmine is responsible, dependable, and communicative. We get a pretty detailed recap of the day and lots of videos and pictures. Of course the kitties loved it and housesit worked a lot better for my cat that picks at his food throughout the day. We didn’t have to worry at all. Ty Jazmine you are the best!!”

“Our pet crew loved Brandy! She sent updates with pictures everyday, and the dogs and cats looked happy and well cared for. We felt comfortable that they were good hands!”

“My house sitting fell through just a few days before I went on a week-long trip. Ashlie swooped in at the last minute to save the day! Thanks to her flexibility and understanding of my situation, we arranged a meet and greet nearly within 24 hours. She was so easy to work with while I was frazzled with the last minute changes. While I was gone Ashlie sent pictures and responded quickly to questions and requests. I have no doubt Annie was comfortable and happy in her care. She was also very respectful to my space and belongings. I'd recommend Ashlie to anyone needing house sitting services, especially if you need someone with large dog experience.”

“Lez did a wonderful job cat and house sitting while we were out of town for the week. There was easy communication via text while we were away. Our senior cat enjoyed her company and care. We returned to a well kept home and we wouldn’t hesitate to use Lez’s services again.”

“I so appreciated April taking care of Oliver and Winston giving me peace of mind during my trip. It was great seeing the photos and updates she sent. Winston is older and has some challenges and she did a good job taking care of his needs as well as Oliver's more energetic needs. She was also flexible when my return flight was delayed and stayed an extra night which made my eventful travels a little easier.”

“Rachel is the most amazing pet sitter ever! She takes wonderful care of our animals, and leaves our home cleaner than when she arrived. We can’t recommend her enough!”

“Alexis was once again a great caretaker for my dog. My dog is 17 years old, incontinent, and mostly blind and deaf. Alexis takes great care of him and keeps him company, so he is not alone. As much as I don’t want to have to travel for work, its great to know that my dog is in great hands with Alexis.”

About: I'm a medium millennial who was born ready to love and care for animals. My great grandparents had a 60 acre horse ranch (with so many cats), which kick-started a life for me full of dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, fish, snakes, lizards, birds, rats, chickens and teeny tiny crabs. I also grew up in the back areas of my dad's work, The California Academy of Sciences, for 16 years, which is where all of the caretaking happens. Baby penguins are softer than you could imagine. I currently have three cats and one family foster dog of my own. I've been house and pet sitting since I was a teenager. I lost my soul dog of ten years, Rufus, in January 2026, and I could really use some new fuzzy/scaly faces to make friends with and care for. The only caveat is that I have a severe phobia of crickets, so I can't watch anyone who needs to eat them. Otherwise, I would be honored to watch and care for your charges and take some stress off you while you travel/adventure/do life. I'm a caretaker and house manager with a lot of flexibility with my time. I can absolutely do multiple daily drop ins for walks and feedings and attention giving, but staying at your home for the duration of your trip would be ideal. I am generally available at all times of the day, every day of the week. When it comes to pet and house sitting, your wishes are my commands. I will go over all care plans extensively with you and take notes, as well as keep you updated in intervals you set. I will follow your lead with safety measures, medications, feeding schedules, trash pick ups, exercise and enrichment routines, crating, and anything else your pets need.

“Shelby is simply amazing. My dog adores her. Shelby is also great at communicating and sending photo updates, which put my mind at ease while I was away, Shelby also respected my home and left it in great condition. Highly recommend.”
