“Carey did a great job taking care of our dog while we were away. She kept us updated on his activities, shared several pictures, and made sure he was well looked after. She also took good care of our home, which we really appreciated. We’d be happy to book her again in the future and would recommend her to others looking for a reliable dog sitter!”
About: I previously worked at a small animal clinic. I have extensive experience working with small animals of all breeds/sizes/temperament/energy-level. I have cared for both senior dogs and pups. Experience administering oral medication. I mostly work full-time, but my hours are flexible. I am always available for morning/afternoon walks/jogs. I work through the university, therefore, I am available on holidays and weekends! I have a lot of experience caring for friends/ family pets. I am open to sitting in both my own home and clients home, all depending on client/pet comfort ability. I do not have any pets of my own, but I do have the supplies (bed,bowls,treats,poop bags,etc) ready for when they are needed!
“Clara house sat and watch our labradoodle for 5 days and did a fantastic job! Walter was happy and healthy when we arrived home and the house was in excellent condition. Several of our dog-loving neighbors got to know Clara and really liked them. We highly recommend Clara and have absolutely no reservations in hiring them again! :-)”
“Yessel is fantastic! Her communication was super and her care for our dog was wonderful-didn’t worry once knowing our puppy was in great hands.”
“Olivia was awesome! Thank you!”
“Devi was great. We’ve already booked with her again! Devi was very responsive when booking. We were impressed by how professional she was when she came over for a meet-and-greet. Most importantly, she handled our easily overexcited, enormous dog perfectly—she was calm, let him set the pace, and he quickly relaxed with her. Devi sent updates and pics, so we were able to enjoy our weekend without worries.”
“We got introduced to Esmerilda through a mutual connection and from the moment we met her we knew she’d be a great fit for our felines! As an aspiring veterinarian, Esmerilda has great attention to detail and is confident in handling pets with special needs or complicated medical demands. We had her house/pet sit for us for 10 days while we were out of the country and never once did we have a worry about how things were going. It’s great that we have found our best friends’ new best friend!”
“Ashley was wonderful! I highly recommend her. She did such a great job with my little dog. She was timely, trustworthy, a great communicator, and best of all my dog loves her! Thank you, Ashley!”
“Nora is very reliable and our dog Bailey took to her right away. We received regular updates and had the peace of mind that our home and pet were in good hands while we were away.”
“Valorie was great! She communicated with me well, sent pictures, and was honest. My pups seem led to have a good time :) Sh is so nice and genuine and took such great care of the house too.”
“Rachel was great! We have a Saint Bernard and 2 cats and they loved her. She sent us photos while we on vacation and gave us regular updates. This was the first time we have left our pets with anyone, and Rachel was very respectful of our pets and our space. We were very apprehensive about hiring a random person to care for our pets, but the second we met Rachel we were put at ease. Rachel asked us questions about the care of our pets that we hadn't thought about, which gave us the confidence that she knows what she doing. She is amazing and we will definitely rebook with her.”
“Naseebh is the best. We always trust her to stay at our home and to take care of our little old guy”
About: I have taken care of animals all of my life! I am a proud owner of two guinea pigs and have 3 dogs back at home. I also have experience with cats. I am an Animal Science major at UC Davis, so I am very passionate about all kinds of animals! I am a student at UC Davis taking one Summer class this summer so my schedule is flexible. I am available every single weekday as well as weekends. You can count on me to take the best care of your fur babies and treat them like they were my own. I am very communicative, good with directions, and responsible. If needed, my house has a fenced backyard that is great for playtime needs!
“Alyssa is great. I can always trust her to take care of my senior chihuahua. If you’re looking for someone reliable and trustworthy with your special doggos, I highly recommend her”
About: Hello! I have taken care of dogs since 2009 with various experiences with my personal pets and many other family members pets. My uncle used to be a K9 police dog trainer and has many personal pets. Through him, i've been exposed to various sizes, mentalities, and activity limits. My experiences with big dogs like Great Danes and intelligent dogs like Belgian Malinois give me the confidence to handle any pets! I also have experienced dogs that can be easily spooked and might produce scary looking body language, allowing me to handle de-escalation while respecting the pet. Overall, I have seen all types of dogs and am equipped to give your pets a fun experience! I am currently working a day shift on UC Davis campus but can be available after 4:30pm on weekdays and anytime works on the weekends! I can take care of pets in a clients home by providing treats if allowed and using the environment of the clients home to entertain their pet. I won't be able to care for pets in my own because I don't have proper space, but I can walk them around the neighborhood!

She brushes their fur and plays catch with them for long periods of time in-between cuddling and walks. Elise is great with dogs. She's been a friend to our fur-babies for.over almost 15 years. We have two dogs (Sequoia who turned 15 & Juniper who is 5 years old) who have benefited from the care and Love Elise has shown them. Thanks for your time. Woof! -Jaime”
