About: I have a genuine love for animals, along with the compassion and hands-on experiencing to provide them with the best care. Growing up with a dog, I have always had a special bond with animals and understand how much they become part of the family. Pet sitting for family, friends, and other pet owners I have cared for pets with a variety of personalities routines, and individual needs. I am responsible, dependable, and attentive to detail, whether it’s following feeding schedules, going on walks, providing exercise and playtime, or simply making sure each pet feels safe and comfortable. I love, giving pets plenty of attention, companionship, and, of course, lots of love and cuddles! Most importantly, I want every pet to feel happy and cared for while giving their owners peace of mind, knowing their fur baby is in loving and trustworthy hands! I have a flexible schedule that allows me to easily fit pet care into my daily and weekly routine. I am available for regular walks, drop in visits, feeding, playtime, and companionship throughout the week. I’m also available for boarding on the weekends. Which allows me to provide pets with plenty of attention and care in a comfortable environment. I live in an apartment, but I love being active and spending time outdoors, so taking dogs on walks is one of my favorite parts of pet care. When caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, clean, and comfortable environment, where they can feel relaxed and at home. I make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and affection throughout the day. I enjoy going on walks, playing with toys, giving belly, rubs and cuddles, and making sure they are never feeling lonely or bored. When caring for pets in a client‘s home, I make it a prior to follow their normal routine as close as possible. I’m happy to follow specific feeding schedules, provide freshwater, take dogs on walks, clean up after them, and give them plenty of playtime and companionship. I also understand that every pet is different so I take time to learn their personality, preferences, and any special instructions from their owner. My goal is to make each pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved.

About: It is very difficult for me to have animals in my current situation so I am looking forward to this work as an opportunity to make friends with animals that I would not get to experience normally. I am really looking forward to it. Thank you. I am retired and partially disabled so I don’t have a work routine and so I’m available seven days a week. This will be fun! I am very respectful of other people spaces and I’m happy to offer full cleanup services for any accidents or other things that might happen while I’m there.

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and have years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all different sizes and personalities. I’ve had two Huskies, a Golden Retriever, and a Rottweiler, so I’m very comfortable with large, energetic dogs and understand the attention, exercise, and patience they need. I also have a cat of my own, so I’m just as comfortable caring for feline friends! 🐾 I truly love animals and will treat your pets with the same love, attention, and care I’d want for my own. I work from home on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Fridays from 6 AM–3 PM, which gives me plenty of flexibility to provide your pet with attention, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. I live near a large park in Rocklin with plenty of space for nice, enjoyable walks and outdoor time. I’m happy to take your dog there for some fresh air and exercise, or if you’d feel more comfortable having them stay close to home, I can stick to walks around your neighborhood and follow their normal routine. Your pet’s safety and comfort will always come first!
“Ella is really great with my new rescue Maggie, who needs a little extra TLC, after just coming home from the shelter. Ella is very reliable, gentle and caring with Maggie. I have no worries being at work while Ella takes good care of Maggie!”

About: I grew up with fish, a hampster, and a tiny dog with a brave heart. She was a rescue from the SPCA with an abusive past and first came to her us with a cautious, timid behavior as she arrived at her forever home. As I grew up, I saw her grow comfortable and confident in our home. She felt safe to bark, play, and eat freely around her family. When I was a teenager I volunteered at the PSPCA and learned basic training skills as well as valuable experience with multiple breeds of dogs. I shortly returned to volunteering in college and thoroughly enjoyed it. In my experience of over five years of pet-sitting, I’ve seen cats blossom from their initial under-the-bed habits of apprehension, to greeting me every day with a headbutt to my hand. I see previously apprehensive dogs greet me every time with an excited tail and spin, rather than their natural bark at the unknown. Connecting with animals and giving them the care they deserve is invaluable to me. And as my headline says, they will always be our one and only true companions. I understand completely the kind of worries an owner can have about leaving their pet in someone else’s care. It’s not easy to separate from a beloved companion, even if for a short time and with someone you trust. I will always prioritize your pets safety, communication, and the responsibility that is pet care. Your pet’s well-being matters and I do my best to prove that they are in good hands. Every visit I send a couple pictures of your pet(s) to you if you would like that. If I am housesitting, this can mean sending sets of photos twice a day, typically during feeding time, walks, or play. Having photo proof of both their care and their cute, happy faces makes a difference. If you have any cameras inside the house, please inform me and we can see if we’re still a good fit. I’m quick to respond to any texts and will always ask questions if I feel there is anything of concern. I keep aware of the care of your home’s environment and ensure you come back to both a happy pet and a happy home. You should never come back to a mess to clean up after a long trip, or to a sitter who has been irresponsible with house care. Your home is your space and I respect that. Let me know how I can help make your time away less stressful, and your pet’s time at home just as joyful. Hello there! I currently have college classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Morning class is from 10:50am-12:30pm and my evening class is from 6:20pm-8:10pm. This would not be including travel time. I attend Sierra College. I can work around these times for housesitting with whatever works best. Pet-sitting within 14 minutes of driving to Rocklin Sierra College is my preference, especially for housesitting. I live in Granite Bay. My calendar is updated regularly to reflect times I will be available to petsit. I’m most likely to have time free from Friday-Monday. In a few months, I plan to apply for part-time work. However, I will always prioritize previously made commitments and will give full transparency. I am quick to notify if any status changes. With my restrictions of one to two drop-ins per day and house sitting jobs, I would still be able to balance petsitting with a part-time work schedule. I’m also used to needing to commute different distances and would apply for work closer to my college. If I find that this changes, I will put my settings on “away.” I send a routine set of photos during the morning and in the evening. These may feature meal time, play, or nap-time. I will always reach out with major updates and if any questions arise. If you will not have access to service, prefer not to be sent photos, or expect time differences please inform me. Please send me a document or a picture of your notes that can be clearly read at least three days before a sit, preferably as soon as your time allows. This is just so I get a gist of the sit after our meet n greet and I can reference it later, especially for emergency contact’s information. I like to have a basic schedule of your pets usual or preferred routine available for me via note (picture), text, email, or document. My preference is that it is shared via google docs or word document, but I am flexible. However, the sooner is the better so that we can smooth out any missed information or details. Good details to include: Feeding instructions Medication instructions Walk needs, length of time/distance, and if you’d like to include, preferred routes. Estimate of usual bed and wake time (including potty breaks) Any house rules Neighbor and/or emergency contact(s) Vet information and insurance Passcodes (wifi, doors, gate code) Trash days, gardeners days, cleaners days Mail key and number if applicable Garage key if applicable Wifi passcode Will you have a mail block while gone? Need checking for packages? Anything else you’d like to share Consistency is key for your pet while you're away on vacation. Having similarities to their usual routine can help resolve any anxiety at the unfamiliar situation. They're already in a familiar environment, why shouldn't they get familiar comforts and care? You should always come how to a safe, healthy, and happy pet. During Meet n Greets, I always make sure to note down important details shared with me. Meeting prior to a booking is an opportunity to interview each other, to understand if we meet each other's criteria and if I can provide the right kind of services for you and your pet. This communication is an essential part of a good client and sitter relationship and builds a strong foundation for a potential happy, relaxing, and pet-photo filled vacation. Notice: It is your responsibility to inform me of your pet’s behavior and if they have been pet-sat before. Pet’s can act differently while their family is away, especially if they have separation anxiety. Honesty is a must in order to ensure your pawsome pet has a good homestay.
About: I've taken care of pets ever since I was 11 years old. I've dog-sat and house-sat for friends, family, and neighbors. I've volunteered at the Placer SPCA, where spent my time training dogs, cleaning, and offering companionship to dogs in need of a home. I've also worked at a dog grooming salon, my position being a professional dog bather. I learned not only how to effectively clean and groom dogs and cats, but also how to handle aggressive dogs, scared dogs, and disabled dogs of all ages and sizes. I am currently attending Sierra Community College, but plan my stays and visits around my classes. I can do multiple drop-ins and am comfortable spending nights. I care for pets in their own home where they feel most comfortable. I follow all instructions carefully, whether it’s feeding, walks, meds, or crate time. I keep things clean, calm, and consistent so your pet stays safe and happy while you’re away.

My experience includes daily walks, feeding, playtime, maintaining routines, providing companionship. I’m dependable, responsible, active and genuinely love spending time with animals!

There are nature trails and a dog park just outside the complex! Your pet will have full access to my apartment unless you prefer otherwise. There are no other pets in the home.
About: I have had experience in dog sitting and walking puppies! I have always wanted a dog but just do not have the room for it at home so pet sitting for friends has always been something I have loved doing! Currently, I am working part-time and I am a college student. However, my shifts are never longer than 4 hours. My services are available all week! I make sure to care for pets with as much love as I can!

About: Besides having and enjoying my own pets, I have been a pet sitter for several years as well as various veterinarians’ assistant and kennel attendant. I am a self employed licensed esthetician, so I am available to set my own schedule. I am looking forward spending time with pet clients. While caring for your pet I am very happy to follow your specific instructions in order to meet your pets’ needs and enhance their well being and safety.
About: I’ve been a proud pet owner my entire adult life, with a special place in my heart for large breeds like pitbulls, malinois, bloodhounds, and bulldogs. Over the years, I’ve learned how to care for dogs with a wide range of personalities — from high-energy working dogs to laid-back couch companions. In 2019, I founded a foster-based nonprofit dog rescue focused primarily on bully breeds. Through that work, I cared for dogs of all ages — from tiny puppies to gentle seniors — many with behavioral or medical needs. I gained hands-on experience with training, medication administration, socialization, and rehabilitation, all while ensuring each dog felt safe, loved, and understood. In 2023, I transitioned the rescue to my amazing team so I could focus on providing more individualized, one-on-one care through pet sitting. I bring the same dedication, structure, and compassion to every pet I look after as if they were my own. Whether your dog needs calm companionship, structured walks, or just someone who understands their unique quirks, they’ll be in good hands with me. ❤️ I have a flexible job that allows me to work from home, which means I’m able to give plenty of attention and care throughout the day. I’m typically only away from home for a couple of hours at a time, so your pet will have lots of company, playtime, and supervision. Whether it’s a mid-day walk, weekend stay, or overnight care, I can easily adjust my schedule to meet your pet’s needs. Consistency, comfort, and connection are always my priorities. Pets in my care are treated like family. I provide a calm, structured, and loving home environment where dogs can relax and feel secure. My home is pet-safe, clean, and set up for comfort, with plenty of room for lounging, play, and outdoor breaks. Because of my background running a dog rescue, I’m very experienced with different breeds, behaviors, and energy levels. I make sure each dog has the right balance of attention, activity, and rest, following their individual needs and routines. I’m home most of the day and maintain a consistent schedule, so pets are never left alone for long. You can trust that your dog will be safe, supervised, and cared for as if they were my own.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Rocklin
I can't recommend Catarina enough. She's incredibly conscientious — always on time, always communicative, and it's clear she genuinely cares about the dogs she walks. My dog Hazel absolutely adores her, which says everything. If you want someone reliable, dependable, and truly great with animals, look no further.

Michelle has been a great walker and care taker for our two pups. They are always happy after walks with her and she takes great lengths to ensure the dogs are taken care of. Michelle is a great pet care taker, and great human being as well. She’s kind, mindful and patient, as well as professional. Will always recommend her to anyone for walks!
