“Natalie has house sit for me more than once and she’s the best! She sends me pics and updates on my dog and cat, and takes excellent care of them. Additionally, she doesn’t mind doing little household tasks (like rolling out my trash cans) which make traveling so much easier. Thank you!!!!”


“Dustin took great care of our dog over 4th of July weekend, which is always tough for our little guy. Like many dogs, the fireworks really scare him. It was so relieving to know our pup was in good hands. We sincerely appreciate it!”


“Kirsten did a great job of accommodating our needs and dogs schedules. I only had a couple of days to arrange dog and house sitting before going to Utah for a service. The dogs were comfortable and not like boarding. Definitely will use her again.”


“Liz is AWESOME!!! I appreciated not only how well she cared for my two old guys, but her positivity and frequent communication. I will definitely book her again in the future!”


“Abreena was a great sitter. She gave me regular updates about Mae and followed all of her care instructions. I got home and my apartment was in perfect condition. I’ll definitely use Abreena again!”


“Reiji had such a good time with Carolyn! She left are place just as we left it but with one extra-happy pup. Will be using Carolyn again for sure!!”


“Melinda is so amazing, she took such good care of our dog and our house. She was constantly communicating and sending us pictures where our dog looked so happy and comfortable and really allowed us to enjoy our trip. Our house has never looked better and we are so grateful to have found Melinda. Could not recommend her more! She is amazing.”


“Joel was gracious and accommodating when I had a last minute need for a dog sitter. He asked thoughtful questions that gave me confidence that he’d take good care of my boys. And he sure did! They had a great time with Joel. He’ll be first on my list for any future dog sitting needs!”


“Grace was patient with our dogs and responded promptly throughout the booking process and the house stay. She also watered our vegetables and kept the house and yard neat even though I know the fur babies constantly scatter their toys around.”


About: I have 4 years of ER Veterinary technician experience. And will make sure your babies are safe and cared for. I am able to administer medications if needed as well. I currently am looking to enjoy caring for cats and dogs in something other than in a veterinary setting so that I can have the ability to enjoy my time with pets more and socialize in a more casual and fun environment! I have enhanced training in behavioral traits of both cats and dogs so will be able to read their cues to the best of my ability.


“Natalie was awesome! Lots of pics and texts which made me more comfortable. Both pets did great. Roxy was anxious before but by the time I got home, she was calm and wasn’t clingy like she can be. Roxy is a great communicator as Natalie can attest to so I will listen to my boss. Roxy, and always book Natalie.”


“Wow! What can I say about Holly! We absolutely love her and so do our dogs. She did a great job with the dogs and had a great connection with them. We will definitely use Holly's services again!”


“Bari was wonderful! We felt totally secure leaving our dogs and cat with Bari. She was communicative, helpful, and all-around awesome. Would definitely recommend her. Thank you, Bari!”


“Jill is awesome! She watched my very high energy 30 lb mixed dog. I could tell that she was comfortable handling any size dog with her interactions with my dog. She sent pictures and updates while I was gone. I will definitely be reaching out to request more support from her.”


“Aicha was amazing! She was very accommodating and cared well for our little puppy :) if we need a sitter in the future we will definitely have her again!”


“Jnaessa took loving care of my three critters (a needy dog and two cats). She gave them love and attention including extra attention to my fussy eater old lady cat to get her to eat. She sent me pictures daily. The house was neat as a pin when I arrived home. I will definitely be booking Janessa again.”


About: I’ve been caring for animals nearly my whole life—starting as a pre-teen pet sitter and growing up surrounded by dogs. Today, I have two beloved rescue pups of my own! I’m animal obsessed, incredibly reliable, and treat every pet like family. Whether it’s dogs, cats, or critters, your furry loved ones will be safe, loved, and well cared for in my hands. I work from home and have a flexible schedule, which means I can easily adapt to your pet’s routine and needs. I’m based in the Sacramento area and am happy to stay in your home to help your pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or just keeping them company, I’ve got it covered! I currently offer walks, drop-in visits, and overnight stays in your home. In your home, I will make sure your pet sticks to their normal routine—whether that’s feeding, walks, playtime, or just some extra love and attention. I keep things calm, consistent, and comfortable so your pet feels safe and cared for while you're away.

“Alyssa was such a great dog sitter and house sitter! She was with my Petey boy for a week and I can tell he was in such good hands. Petey can be anxious with separation anxiety and I can tell from the pictures Alyssa sent me that Petey felt very safe and happy! I couldn’t recommend Alyssa enough, she’s very much a dog person and the ideal dog sitter/ house sitter. Alyssa also took care of my house very well. She took out trash cans and managed instructions well. I’m definitely booking with her again!”


“Cory did a great job watching our dog and cat on a recent five night trip. We got daily communications and pictures while we were gone and I could tell that our very timid dog got lots of attention. Our house was spotless and Cory even fixed a broken door!”


“Reece went above and beyond every single day when caring for our many family’s pets while our households were away for a week for a family reunion . Between 6 dogs across 2 apartments with some having medication/feeding considerations, 2 parakeets and multiple aquariums, it was a large job that Reece tackled with enthusiasm. We received updates, pictures and videos from breakfast to bedtime, and never once did I think our animals were receiving anything but exemplary care!”

Emma L.
“Emma is truly the best person you could ever hope to have watching over your beloved pet. She has watched my dog (and bunny) with so much care, love, and attention and I’ve seen her do the same for countless friends, often letting their dogs out or helping with pet care while they’re at work, all out of the kindness of her heart. She’s someone who genuinely loves animals and treats every dog like her own. It brings her joy to be around them, and it shows in how comfortable and happy the dogs are in her care. Emma is trustworthy, dependable, and has the biggest heart. I can’t recommend her enough — your pet will be in the absolute best hands with her!”
