“Lauren helped us out with a last minute booking. We instantly felt very comfortable with her and she was great with our dog. Punctual and great communication. We will definitely book her again.”

About: I have taken care of pets like dogs, cats, reptiles, and farm animals since I was very young. I have experience with small to large dogs as well as young to senior dogs and cats. I have also volunteered at shelters for the past few years and helped them too. I am currently taking care of animals full time. I am available at all hours and all days as long as I have no other bookings. I have a fenced backyard and a pool that my dogs love. I also have 3 dogs of my own. I have a German Shepherd puppy and 2 senior Chihuahuas. I strive to make sure all animals I take care of are happy and safe.

“Irina is super kind and easygoing! She made sure my little dog Chester was taken care of, and even went the extra mile to drive him to a shaded park for his walk. I loved getting pictures of his happy face! :)”

“Adrienne was great with our dogs and our dogs really enjoyed her walking them. Our dogs can be intimidating but she was very comfortable and they responded to her well. She was professional and timely. We would highly recommend her and will be using her again. Thank you”

“Cole was great, pups loved him, and luckily he was very understanding about an address mixup. I’ve found not everyone is comfortable with small dogs (I have a chihuahua and a maltipoo) and he handled everything smoothly. Thank you!”

About: I am super kind, caring, and respectful of all animals! I will make sure your pet is comfortable and has all of the necessary things needed for a fun, relaxing and safe environment. I have a lot of experience with my own pets as well as taking care of friends and family pets. As a retired elementary school teacher, I have a ton of patience and will take the time to do everything I can to make your pet comfortable and happy : ) I have also taken care of many of my students' pets and homes over the years. I love to help out! I look forward to meeting you and your pet family. I am retired, so pet sitting is perfect! I am wide open for dates to help assist you with your fur babies! Hope to meet you soon! Any pet is welcomed into my home! They can sit/lay anywhere that is comfortable. I will always be with them, and make sure they have what they need to be happy!

“Dorothy was wonderful! She was friendly, reliable, and took great care of Daisy during her walks. Daisy was always excited to see her each day and clearly enjoyed getting out for exercise and plenty of time to sniff and explore. It gave us peace of mind knowing Daisy was in such caring hands. We definitely would recommend Dorothy for a trustworthy and compassionate dog walker!”

About: I have taken care of dogs for the past 5 years or so by myself. Growing up my parents watched dogs for friends and family every so often. We also had a border collie mix of our own for 15 years and I was responsible for taking care of him. I currently work M-Th; 9am-5pm but fairly free before or after work for walks and playtime. I tend to get up early on work days but a night owl on the weekends. I enjoy getting out on the weekends like going on walks with hikes. I currently do not have fenced in hard but I do have a large grass area right outside my house that is dog friendly and is great for playtime and even doggie pool time.

“Extraordinarily personable, accepting and supportive of our hyper and high octane pup. By the time the four visits had passed Elaine succeeded in gaining our pups trust. In only took one visit for us. We have our future #1 choice for all care moving forward in Elaine.”

“Amy is very thorough and thoughtful. She took copious notes on my senior dog and changed her diaper and wiped her paws awesomely per my request. When faced with language barriers, Amy is still communicative, kind and respectful— my mom liked her too!”

About: Hello, I'm Mia and I am located in Cameron Park. I can't wait to meet your dog, cat or other pet. I have had dogs and cats my whole life and other pets too! I have done basic care, grooming and training. I am certified in veterinary assisting and have taken the online Fear Free Shelters course which taught me about how to help animals feel more comfortable. I've also done volunteer work at the animal shelter which included lots of dog walking and care. I have experience with other animals as well like my own chickens, reptiles, bunnies, guinea pigs, fish, and neighbors' goats and horses. I know it can be scary to leave pets with a stranger, but I will treat yours with love and care just like I treat my own. My schedule/routine can be pretty open for pet sitting depending on the day. I can do basic drop-ins, dog walks or a longer overnight stay. I am pretty quiet and calm and have been told I have a calming effect on animals. I will take good care of them and give them the attention they need. I can also do other basic duties like getting the mail, taking out the trash, etc. I'm vigilant about locking doors etc. to make sure everything stays safe. I try to keep things running as smoothly as possible while you're away and leave things tidy when I leave.

About: I have worked for boarding facilities before, one that had no kennels and one that did. I have had lots of experience taking care of dogs and cats, giving oral medications, and watching them during the day to day. I love animals and always think of them as a part of your family. I am available everyday except for Tuesday's and Thursday's. As long as I have two days notice I have no issue doing check-ins, walks, or watching your furry friends with whatever schedule works best! Due to my previous experience with boarding facilities, I am well trained to follow instructions left by owners. Whatever schedule my clients have I will adapt to and perform, so that their pet won’t get confused or distressed by the change in schedule. I make sure to give special love and attention to each and every pet I care for.

About: I have been an avid dog lover my whole life I wouldn't know what to do without one. I am now retired and I thought what better way to spend my time than to hang out with my favorite 4 legged people. I am actively involved with several pet rescue organizations and would feed my dogs before I would eat I am retired so I'm available pretty much anytime you need me. If you need someone to take your fur baby for a walk or to drop in and say hi and play with them for a while I'm your guy I have 2 dogs 1 pug and 1 chi-weenie they have a fenced in area that is also covered to keep them out of the sun and rain

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and have had a soft spot for animals for as long as I can remember. I’ve joked that animals understand me better than people do, so being around them feels pretty natural to me. I have an 11-year-old Labrador with medical needs, which has taught me a lot about being patient, paying attention to the little things, and giving senior pets the extra care they need. I’ve also enjoyed walking and caring for the dogs of friends and neighbors over the years. I’m a calm and gentle person, and I think pets pick up on that. My goal is for your pet to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away, and for you to have that same peace of mind. I’ll take the time to learn their routine, get to know their personality, and give them plenty of attention and affection. I’ll also send you updates and photos during visits so you know how they’re doing and can feel a little more connected while you’re away. My schedule is flexible, which gives me plenty of time to spend with your pups and give them the attention they deserve. I’m available for dog walks and drop-in visits from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., seven days a week. I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine and take my time with each visit rather than rushing from one appointment to the next. I enjoy having a flexible schedule because it allows me to make pet care a priority and be there when you need me. Whether your pup needs a good walk, some playtime, or a little extra company during the day, I’m happy to be there. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my first priority. Before a visit, I’ll take the time to learn about their routine, personality, and anything I should be aware of, including medications, feeding instructions, or behaviors. When I’m in your home, I’ll treat it with the same care and respect I would my own. I’ll make sure doors and gates are secure, follow your instructions closely, and keep an eye out for anything that seems unusual. I’m also happy to send updates and photos during each visit so you know your pet is safe, happy, and getting the care they need.

About: I’m a part-time working mom looking to fill my free hours doing what I love! I have my own special needs dog (cleft palate), and have fostered dogs previously, one with spina bifida. I’ve been raised with cats and dogs my entire life, as well as birds and small critters as a child! I’ve always cared for neighbors’ dogs and cats, as well ad housesat, and spent a lot of my childhood shadowing and spending time with my cousin who was a veterinarian. I’m currently working part-time, so I have plenty of free time throughout the week to come check on and spend time with your doggos! My schedule does change and fluctuate, but I can typically work around and with it. I don’t care for pets in my home, but when I care for them in yours, I will always treat them as my own while following all of your rules and guidelines. I know how important that is to me when someone watches my special needs dogs, so I will always respect and follow any and all instructions!

“Ruth was wonderful to work with! Communicated with me really well about her arrival time etc, very accommodating to our last minute need, took great care of our pup and updated us with lots of pictures. Thanks so much Ruth!”

About: I have been taking care of pets for 15 years and have been on/off Rover for the past 10 years. I am able to take care of pets - walk, jog, feed/water, training, light grooming, and taking dogs to the dog park, beach or play dates. If house sitting overnight, I take care of the house - light surface cleaning, take out garbage/recycling, collect mail, and care for plants. I’m flexible on other items you may need. About me: I enjoy the outdoors and have recently moved to the north valley. I look forward to exploring the area. I like to dance, do yard work/garden, organize, and hike. In the past I have owned 2 dogs, 2 cats, 3 chickens, and hamsters. I have volunteered with the Humane Society Seattle as part of their Dogs Behavior and Socialization team using clicker training coupled with positive reinforcement. I have raised 3 pups into adulthood. You can rest assure that your loved pet(s) will be cared for. I work in healthcare in a hybrid role and can take care of your pet for walks visits, and house sitting. I have pets of my own and own a home so I know how to take care of both like they're my own. A good puppy is a tired puppy and a happy cat is a fed cat :) joking aside, I have pets and have owned homes so I will treat your pet and home like I would my own.

About: I’ve grown up taking care of dogs, fish, and especially cats! I have training from the SPCA on dog walking, cat care, and some skill/behavioral training for both cats and dogs. I have 3 years of fish keeping experience. I currently have my own cat (he’s orange!) and I am fostering a mother and her kitten for the time being. I am willing to help clean around the house as well! I have indoor/outdoor plants and I can take care of your plants while you are away - I have a green thumb :) I’ve helped friends and clients with farm animals, including feeding and cleaning their spaces. If directed I can help with other farm projects. I have a pretty busy schedule, but can set aside time on my busy days for drop-ins. I am free to stay at the house with your pet on my off days! To paint a better picture for you of what my availability looks like, my schedule alternates between busy and free days every other day. So if you need 24/7 in-home pet care I am not your best fit, but you can still ask if you’d like! I might be able to work something out for you :) Thank you for your consideration! I offer dog walking, in-home pet sitting, and I can do small cleaning projects for a minimal extra charge. I am gentle with the animals and can do grooming such as brushing and can try nail clipping if your pets allow it!

About: Hi! I’m a stay-at-home mom of two little ones and a big animal lover. Caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life, and I have about 10 years of experience helping friends, family, and neighbors with their pets. I’ve provided in-home pet sitting, drop-in visits, and dog walking, and I’m comfortable with pets of different sizes, ages, and personalities. I understand that pets are family members, and I always try to make them feel safe, loved, and well cared for while their owners are away. Since I’m home most of the day with my kids, I have a flexible schedule and can give pets plenty of attention, playtime, and care. Whether your pet needs a walk, a quick check-in, or loving company while you’re gone, I’d be happy to help. I’m also looking to earn a little extra income for my family, and there’s no better way to do that than by spending time with furry friends. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! Since I’m a stay-at-home mom with my little ones, I have a very flexible schedule and am often available throughout the day. In some cases, my children may come with me for drop-in visits or certain pet care tasks. They are gentle, respectful around animals, and have grown up around pets themselves, so they are very comfortable and calm with them. Our family loves animals, and we always treat every pet with kindness, patience, and care. When caring for pets, I always do my best to follow the routine and preferences discussed with their owner. I know how important consistency is for animals, so I aim to keep their feeding times, walks, playtime, and general care as close to their normal schedule as possible. My goal is to help them feel comfortable, secure, and well cared for while you’re away.
