About: Im so excited to be working for you! What a treat to be able to love on your beautiful babies! I enjoy pet sitting so much because just like people, animals have their own personalities and it’s really neat for me to discover them in all the little fur friends I get to meet. I am good natured and loving and your pet will notice that right off the bat. I’m caring and compassionate and you won’t have to worry about your babies while I am there. I enjoy overnight stays because I know it’s important for them to be “at home”. It’s easy for me to feel at home wherever I go! I have a kitty and he stays home and is very content with that. He is a super friendly 15 lb MainCoon that has a very sweet personality. He’s always up for belly rubs. He does not accompany me on any of my stays or visits. I have several families that aren’t on rover that I just love so much. So their reviews aren’t on here. But if you need references, please let me know. I’m grateful for the opportunity to hang out with your fur family and know that you can rest easy knowing they are in good hands, I am open to visits and check ins or even long weekends or vacations. It would be great to come to you. Take a vacation and relax knowing your home and sweet babies are being lovingly cared for. Unfortunately I am unable to board any pets at this time. I don’t have the needed space to accommodate them. Thank you so very much!

“Hannah did such an amazing job taking care of our two pups! They were both happy and exercised and fed. Would definitely recommend Hannah to anyone!”

“Kayla has watched Zephyr a couple of times and did an amazing job! I am so thankful to have someone I trust with my dog when I can’t be home. She follows all routines and is very caring!”

About: Hi! I’m Tarron — lifelong animal lover, rescue director, and experienced handler with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, temperaments, and medical needs and many other animals including cats, ducks, goats, bunnies. I’m the Executive Director of a nonprofit animal rescue and have extensive experience with: * rescue and anxious dogs * senior dogs * puppies * medication administration * decompression and slow introductions * leash handling and structured walks * dogs recovering from surgery/injury * reactive or fearful dogs I understand that every dog is different and I always prioritize safety, patience, structure, and making dogs feel comfortable and secure. Because I have animals of my own and run a rescue, I currently focus on: * drop-in visits * dog walking * medication visits * structured enrichment walks * pet transport/help with vet visits I’m especially comfortable with dogs that may need a little extra understanding or experience beyond a typical pet sitter/walker. Reliable, communicative, calm, and genuinely passionate about animal welfare. I currently work as a program manger for adults with special needs, and manage a small team of individuals. Mornings and evening are best. As well as Tuesdays, and weekends. I do not provide pet care in my own home at this time, but I will gladly come to yours and spend time with your fur babies!

“Ian did a great job looking after my kitties! They have very distinct personalities and I feel like he understood each of them. I really appreciated how he took the time to play with them and gave them attention :)”

About: I have cared for pets of all sizes, ages, and needs! I am comfortable with caring for animals needing extra attention, elder pets, administering medication if needed, and making it my standard to treat your pet like my own! I myself have two kitties and a dog, so I know how important it is that they are around people with relaxing and good energy, which I can provide! A fun fact about me is that I am an Air Force veteran, so I am responsible and reliable!! I am currently a full-time student at Sacramento State, so I am at school from 9-10:15am Monday through Thursday starting this fall, which allows me to be available for your pet before and after class! I also work part-time from home on Mondays and Wednesdays and Fridays :) When I pet sit, I make sure that I leave the space I am pet sitting in just as it was when I arrived, if not cleaner. I respect the environments I am welcomed into and show my gratitude for any opportunity to fill a space by treating it as my own!

About: I’ve always loved being around animals and know how important it is to find someone you can genuinely trust with your pets. I’m dependable, patient, active, and attentive to the little things that make each pet feel comfortable and cared for. Whether your dog loves long walks and playtime or prefers a slower day full of cuddles and attention, I’ll make sure they get the care, exercise, and affection that fit their personality and routine. As a former Division I athlete with experience playing professional football, I bring a strong sense of responsibility, discipline, and consistency to everything I do. I’m punctual, communicative, and someone you can count on to follow through. I understand that every pet is different, and I’m happy to follow specific feeding schedules, routines, medication instructions, and household rules so your pet feels right at home. I’m also comfortable being active with energetic dogs while understanding that puppies, senior pets, and more anxious animals may need extra patience, attention, and a gentler approach. My priority is always making sure your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I’ll treat your home with respect, keep you updated with messages and photos, and make sure you never have to wonder how your pet is doing. I know they’re family, not just pets, and I’ll treat them like my own. My goal is to give you complete peace of mind and make sure your pet is excited to see me again next time! My schedule is flexible, which allows me to give your pet the time, attention, and care they deserve rather than trying to squeeze them into a busy day. I’m able to plan my day around your pet’s needs, whether that means morning walks, midday check ins, afternoon playtime, or overnight stays. As an athlete, I’m naturally disciplined and routine oriented, so I understand the importance of consistency with feeding times, exercise, bathroom breaks, and daily habits. I’m also active and love getting outside, making walks, outdoor adventures, and playtime a great fit for my lifestyle. At the same time, I’m more than happy to slow things down for pets who prefer a relaxed environment and plenty of company. I’ll work with you to maintain your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, keep you updated with photos and messages, and make sure they receive plenty of attention throughout our time together. My goal is to make things as easy and stress free as possible for both you and your pet! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness will always be my top priorities. I know it takes a lot of trust to leave your pet in someone else’s care, and I take that responsibility seriously. My goal is to make sure you feel completely comfortable leaving your pet with me, knowing they’re in good hands. In your home, I’ll respect your space, follow your instructions closely, and keep your pet’s routine as consistent as possible. I’ll make sure food, water, walks, bathroom breaks, medications (if needed), and any specific care instructions are handled properly. I’m attentive to details, careful with doors, gates, leashes, and surroundings, and mindful of keeping pets away from anything that could put their safety at risk. For walks and outdoor activities, I prioritize secure leash handling, awareness of our surroundings, and keeping your pet comfortable based on their age, energy level, and needs. I’ll never push a pet beyond what they’re comfortable with, and I’ll always take a patient, thoughtful approach to new environments and situations. Communication is just as important as care. I’m happy to send regular photo updates and messages so you can see how your pet is doing and enjoy peace of mind while you’re away. I’ll also reach out if I have any questions or notice anything unusual rather than making assumptions. Above all, I’ll treat your pet with the same patience, attention, and care I’d want someone to give my own. You can count on me to be responsible, respectful, and fully committed to making your pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved.

“I recently had Madison house sit and pet sit for nearly two weeks, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. She took wonderful care of my cat, playing with him multiple times a day and regularly sending pictures so I always knew how he was doing. It's clear she genuinely loves animals. I came home to a happy, relaxed cat, just as I had left him. Madison was also incredibly responsive throughout the stay. Any time I had a question, she replied quickly and put my mind at ease. She also left the house in great shape, which I really appreciated. Leaving your pet with someone new can be a worrisome experience, but I never felt anxious once with Madison. I was completely at ease knowing my cat and home were in such capable, caring hands. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive pet sitter, and I will absolutely be hiring her again without hesitation.”

“Very professional, followed directions, and was very communicative. Took time to show the cats care and affection. Would highly recommend Sloane to anyone looking for a pet sitter!”

About: Hi there! 🐾 I genuinely love animals! I've spent the past 5 years caring for cats and dogs, including my own pets. I'm comfortable with all kinds of personalities, including shy, energetic, anxious, and reactive pets. I understand that every animal is different, and I'm happy to be patient and let them warm up to me at their own pace. Whether your pet loves going on walks, playing, cuddling, or just having someone nearby, I'm happy to give them the attention and care they need! I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets and your home. I'm big on communication and will gladly send pictures and updates throughout our time together so you know your furry family member is doing well. I'm also comfortable with house sitting, following detailed instructions, and respecting your home and your pet's normal routine. I don't mind cameras in shared spaces, and I want you to feel completely at ease while you're away. My goal is simple: happy pets and peace of mind for you! 🐶🐱🧡 I'm available on both weekdays and weekends! 🐾 I do have a full-time job, but I have flexibility with my schedule and can make adjustments ahead of confirmed bookings. I primarily offer house sitting and dog walking. For overnight stays, I'm happy to stay in a guest room if one is available! Since I live in Orangevale, I'm also open to arranging visits throughout the day and returning to my own home at night, depending on your pet's needs. I'm always happy to talk through expectations and schedules before confirming a booking to make sure we're a great fit! I love keeping pets happy, active, and mentally stimulated! 🐾 For dogs, a typical day might include walks around the neighborhood, playtime with their favorite toys, and plenty of attention and cuddles. If they're comfortable in public spaces and their owner approves, I'm happy to take them to a nearby park for some extra outdoor time! For cats, I love interactive playtime with their favorite toys, giving them pets when they're in the mood, or simply hanging out and keeping them company. I always adjust activities based on each pet's energy level, personality, and routine. Whether they're full of energy or prefer a relaxing day, I'm happy to match their vibe!

“Carmen is great! Even with a last minute request she was able to come and let the dogs out while we were away. Thank you so much!”

Haylie M.

“Gladys was amazing! She went above and beyond for Oreo. She was so considerate, asked me how much I would like to be updated per day, shared how Oreo was doing physically and emotionally (Oreo was so comfortable and happy there). All of the items I dropped off with Oreo were cleaned and returned perfectly. Gladys even asked if Oreo could have some of her Churu treats. So kind! Thank you Gladys!”

Sarah S.

“We had the pleasure of having Kendra do drop in visits for our cat, who requires multiple medications, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience! She went above and beyond in ensuring our cat’s needs were met, was incredibly responsive, and followed all the instructions to a T. It gave us peace of mind knowing our cat was in such good hands. We’ll definitely be booking with her again in the future!”

Alejandro P.

“We've used Kay several times now as a cat-sitter, and each time our cat is happy and healthy when we return, we get plenty of thorough updates, and our house is just as we left it. Thanks, Kay!”

Emily S.

“Renae was on time and very responsive to texts. She did a great job of taking care of my cat while I was away. Definitely recommend her as a cat sitter for anyone looking for drop on visits”

Conroy B.

“Thank you for everything. I am glad she came out. I can’t wait to see her.”

Lori L.

“It was our first time leaving our cat for an extended trip, so naturally, I was super anxious! To ease into it, we had Shelby stay for a trial night before our vacation, and we could instantly see how much our cat loved her. Shelby was remarkably patient with us from day one. I left detailed lists, and she followed our instructions. Her communication was top-tier—sending frequent updates and pictures that truly put my mind at ease as a pet parent. On top of that, she kept our home spotless and made sure our cat was well-fed, played with, and showered with affection. Being far away from a pet is never easy, but knowing Shelby was caring for our cat with the same love and attention we would give made all the difference. Thank you, Shelby, for everything! We appreciate you so much.”
