“I am so happy and relieved to have found Alyssa to help me take care of my puppy, Juniper, while I'm at work! Alyssa is communicative and prompt. I'm sure my puppy loves playing with Alyssa during her drop ins.”

“Samantha was great with my cat! Samantha is a good communicator, she did as I asked, and she gave my cat the attention that she craves.”

“Alanna was wonderful! She spent time to actually interact with my cat instead of just filling his food bowl and leaving. She also noticed a hazard on one of his toys that had been broken and made sure it was kept out of his reach so that he wouldn't hurt himself. She was also good about updating me on his behavior as well as notifying me of packages arriving at our home. I am so grateful I found Alanna to watch my cat! Knowing she was watching him definitely made my trip away from home more worry free!”

“Natalie was great with my pup! She is very experienced with big dogs and seemed to calm my 9month old puppy. He enjoyed all the love and attention. She sent updates and was very communicative. Would highly recommend!”

Exciting rides to the dog park are included and With my background as a Registered Behavior Technician, I bring reliability, attention to detail, and a calm presence to every pet I care for. I believe every friend deserves unconditional love and care. These aren’t just pets the are our family!

I keep a clean and safe environment, I make sure things are put away so they can’t get into anything dangerous or bad for their health. I monitor interactions at all times and will have a space to separate shall any issues es arise. When visiting someone’s home I also make sure I pick up after all animals and leave this includes poop. I communicate through the day giving updates on your furry buddy. I have transportation in case of any emergency and a vet is needed. On walks I carry supplies as needed, snack, water, doggy bags…ect. On warmer days walks will be shortened and will be restricted to shaded areas only to prevent heat exhaustion. I take full responsibility for anything damaged or lost.

About: I'm a forever dog owner and lover! I spend one day out of the week volunteering as a walker and swim coach at Homeward Bound where I've learned so much. I'm self-employed and work daily from home which allows me flexibility. It's important for me to spend time outdoors and enjoy walking dogs very much. I prefer to care for a pet at the client's home. I have my own dog at home and would not want to commit if there were a conflict.

“Justin is wonderful! Our cats took to him well, and he really cared for them as well. He made sure they were played with and fed and helped clean the litterbox. Would definitely recommend Justin and would book again.”

“Mooney was fantastic! He was very good about following our requests and instructions for care. He patiently waited for our cats to warm up to him and it was clear from his pictures in the visits they soon became best buds. Additionally, his communication with us was outstanding and above and beyond sending pictures and responding to our questions and requests. HIGHLY recommend Mooney for your pet care he is a very kind gentleman and a clear animal lover.”

She has been very consistent with me.”

About: I am a calm and confident pack leader with a clean and spacious house. I've owned small dogs and cared for large dogs. I have a stellar track record for boarding dogs as indicated by my many returning customers. I am trained in dog behavior, training, dog allergies and nutrition and practice holistic dog-care to ensure safe and anxiety-free care for your pet. Book early as I fill up quickly. Our home is perfect for your pet. - conveniently located off the 80 in Sacramento, less than 10 minutes from Cal Expo and the Arden Fair Mall. - no kennel/crates unless requested by owner during home alone time or bedtime. Our home makes room for each dog to have their own private, gated area without the need for crate. - Since this is in a home setting, drop offs and pick ups can happen between a large time frame of 7:30 a.m. to 10 p.m. This is great for those travelers who are arriving late from the airport or trip and truly missed their pup. You can pick up as late as 10 p.m. at no extra charge! - no extra cost for human attention and love- your dog gets private snuggle time, belly rubs, ear scratches - no extra cost for administration of medications and care for special needs dogs (blind, older dog, etc.) - individual walks and playtime in safe, secure fenced backyard. - owners receive daily photos of dog via Rover account or phone text. The photo statistic on Rover also doesn't reflect that many clients prefer photos via email when they travel abroad. I send multiple daily photos with every reservation. Unlike many homes on Rover, I am home the majority of the time. I do not offer 24 hour a day supervision but my remote job only takes me out of my home 3-4 times a week at 3-6 hours each time. There may also be evenings when I am out. Dogs best suited for my space are those who can stay alone up to 3-5 hours. When I am not home, all dogs are secured in their own comfortable space and not allowed to have contact with the other dogs. All dogs get unlimited access to explore and play in our yard. I work remote from home and able to watch your dog most hours of the day and night. I am also flexible with walk times with preference for early morning and evenings. Dog Boarding: Dogs are welcome in all parts of our home and get lots of outdoor playtime. We always keep people food away from dogs and are mindful of allergies. Dog Walks and Dog House Visits: I have a clean background check and am a very respectful person when entering any of my customer's home. I carry a safety pouch on all walks that includes dog treats, my own poop bags and an extra leash that goes around my waist.

“Tea was absolutely amazing as our dog walker and caretaker for Diego while we were away in LA for the weekend. From the very beginning, she stood out for her responsiveness and genuine care. She took the extra step to meet us and Diego beforehand, which really put us at ease. Throughout the weekend, she kept us updated with photos and messages, and it was clear Diego was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. We could tell she treated him like her own, and that level of attention and thoughtfulness means so much to us. It’s rare to find someone so reliable, communicative, and compassionate. We’d trust Tea with Diego any time and can’t recommend her highly enough!”

“Jullian is the BEST! My dogs adore her! She went beyond the call of duty to make my shy little Mo feel loved. They like her so much that I want her to come visit and walk them just to stay in touch. They will probably gaze out of the window looking for their friend Jullian upon our return from our trip. Thank you for the many, many photos and report cards Jullian. You have been wonderful!”

Nora W.

“Beth was amazing with my cat, Ellie! She was attentive to her needs, played with her, sent cute pictures while I was away, and made sure Ellie was fed and happy. Beth is a very kind lady and my cat loved her!”

About: Force free trainer who believes you don’t need to hurt dogs to train them. I specialize in timid and fearful dogs. I am very experienced with dog to dog introduction and supervised play. Every boarding and day care includes basic obedience training, impulse control and supervised socializing sessions with other friendly dogs. I only use aversive force-free training and would not use any methods or gear that hurts dogs. Please specify what needs you and your dogs have so we can decide together what training I would focus on during boarding. I can teach your dog and show you how to practice sit, down, stay, wait, leave it, recall, loose leash walking. I can work on play and socializing skill with dogs that do not have history of injurious dog bites. I cannot currently host or housesit dog reactive dogs but can offer a walk and train sessions. I certified in training and counseling by the Academy for Dog Trainers (Jean Donaldson), one of the best dog training schools in the country. In addition to my Academy CTC education, I have been fostering and training dogs at the Front Street animal shelter since 2016. I’m certified by the City Shelter as an advanced dog handler since 2018, as well as dog handler mentor, and have been a last resort foster for very timid dogs. Besides my work as a dog trainer, I work full time from home and only leave home on weekends or evenings after 5 pm. On weekends I can take dogs on hikes, to the river or to the dog parks. My medium size dog Bella is my former foster who gets along with all dogs, loves to play and will keep your dog exercised and socialized. Our male dog Lo loves playing with dogs, and is very gentle with timid and young dogs. I have a very large fully fenced yard perfect for exercise and play sessions. I’m working from home and can provide hourly potty breaks. The dogs will be inside at all times besides walks, or backyard potty breaks. Dogs that do not experience separation anxiety and are potty trained are not kenneled unless requested. I never kennel the dogs outside. At night the dogs sleep in my room on dog beds or in kennels if requested. My house seen over 100 foster dogs, and hundreds of Rover dogs, and is very safe and dog proof. I do not have toxic medications, plants or household chemicals accessible to dogs in my house. I love hiking and would take your dog hiking or running on the weekend
