“Anna looked after Simba while I attended a concert, she kept me updated with lots of pictures about what Simba was up to - I didnt have to worry about him! She made sure that Simba had a fun time with lots of love and treats! If you're looking for someone that'll make your pooch feel at home and have some fun while you're away - Anna's the one to choose!!”

“Our first time with Deanna will definitely not be our last! This is our first time in the area and Deanna made us feel so comfortable. My highly energetic pup did amazing in her hands with plenty of toys, yard space, and other pups to play with. Thank you!”

“Kevin took great care of my dog! I know she enjoys her time here because she runs to his front door as soon as I let her out of the car. Kevin provided daily pictures and followed all the instructions on how to care for her. Definitely recommend.”

About: I have experience with a wide range of pets! Medication, grooming, and basic care all in one person who actively communicates to ensure your satisfaction and care of your family member. I was a dog/cat groomer for 6 years and worked at a doggie daycare for 4 years, working with a wide range of breeds and personalities has helped me accurately read pets and their needs. I have experience with dogs, cats, birds, reptiles, and small pets. Pet care is a natural part of my daily and weekly routine—it’s something I genuinely look forward to. Whether it’s morning feedings, litter box cleaning, grooming, or quiet cuddle time, I schedule each task with care and consistency. I make sure every pet gets the attention and comfort they need, and I adjust my routine around their habits and preferences. For me, caring for pets isn’t a task—it’s a meaningful part of my day. I am available around the clock so just let me know when you need me! Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or a client’s, I create a calm, clean, and comfortable environment where they feel safe and loved. I follow each pet’s routine closely—feeding schedules, playtime, grooming, and any medication needs—so they experience as little stress as possible. In my home, I maintain a pet-friendly space with plenty of enrichment and supervision. When visiting a client’s home, I respect their space and ensure their pet receives attentive, personalized care just as they would if you were there.

“Katherine was absolutely wonderful with our dog, Vigo. She is clearly very experienced and comfortable with all different kinds of dogs, which immediately put us at ease. We felt completely confident leaving Vigo with her for two consecutive days while we visited Sacramento. Katherine has an excellent system for thoughtfully and safely socializing dogs, and it was clear that Vigo felt comfortable with her and engaged right away. Our dog has A LOT of energy and loves to run and play, and he was genuinely happy and very content when we picked him up both days. We couldn’t have been happier with the care Vigo received. I highly recommend Katherine to anyone with dogs of any breed or temperament. We wish she lived closer to us for regular stays but will absolutely go back to her any time we’re in the area.”

“Bari was phenomenal and really exceeded our expectations. She gave us updates throughout the day and took a ton of great pictures. Her little dog Coco is the cutest, and by the end of the day was best friends with our lil pup.”

“I found Marcie on Rover and she responded quickly on such short notice. I contacted her on a Friday and she was able to accommodate our pit bull Jada the next day. Marcie was courteous enough to provide photos of Jada while at the dog park. Jada looked like she enjoyed her time with Marcie. We look forward to using Marcie again in the future.”

About: * Right now I can only accept dogs that are excellent with cats, doesn’t chase or show much interest in them. I have a senior cat that can’t protect herself by running away. Thanks! I am very respectful, quiet, and patient. Traits that dogs and cats seem to love! I have a huge soft spot for seniors. I love their energy and have a lot of respect for them. I am also a self proclaimed “Crazy Cat Lady”. I absolutely love cats and I have a very deep respect and connection with them. I love being around animals. I will get depressed if I don't fulfill my daily life with them. I have 5 years experience working at a veterinary hospital when I was in my 20's. I gained lots of knowledge and experience with pet medical care while I worked there. I assisted with surgeries, gave vaccinations, nail trims, and administered oral and injectable medications. I specialize in seniors. I have a deep love and respect for seniors. I love to massage, sing to and spend quality time with cats and dogs of all ages. I currently have a blind dog, and he has made me somewhat of an expert with blind or disabled pets. I learned to be hyper aware and sensitive to their needs on a whole different level. Animals have always been a huge part of my life. Growing up I had not only a dog and cat, but also rats, birds, hamsters, ferrets, fish finatic, turtles, snakes and rabbits! I loved each and every one of them. I am home full time and your pet will be by my side all the time, or close to me as much as they want (or don’t want!) I have a secured fenced in yard with extra protection for jumpers or diggers. I have a doggy door if they like it, if not I can let them out every hour or as much is needed.

About: I have taken care of my own fur friends (cats and dogs) since time immemorial! I've had dogs both large and small, quiet and rowdy, and feel comfortable with caring for them all. From a young age, I helped to take care of all aspects of caring for the family's furry companions, and have done so for friends--both over the weekend and just checking in to make sure they have food, water, and companionship. I also adore cats! I've got one of my own, Cleo, who I adopted last year. I have over 10 years of experience caring for cats and understand them very well. I have a gentle nature that I think animals respond well to, and can gauge an animal's personality to find ways to best approach and care for them. My cat Cleo requires pets first thing in the morning, so that is at the top of the to-do list. After this, I ensure that she has fresh, filtered water and enough food. I work from home, so she is near me lots and enjoys hourly rubs. I also ensure that she stays active and mentally stimulated with toys and our version of fetch (me just running back and forth). She gets groomed at least 3-4 times per week, emptied box daily, and I frequently monitor her food and water intake and other habits (e.g. self-grooming) cause I want to make sure she's with me for the long haul! I am a very attentive, loving human companion. First and foremost, I ensure my cat has her most basic needs: food, water, clean litter. My cat had some issues with not keeping food down, so I did some reading and got her elevated bowls. If Cleo could talk, she'd tell you that when she was having issues, I was right there comforting her. Luckily, Cleo does not have a habit of eating foreign objects, but I ensure that the floor is clear of any string or debris that she could choke on, or that may cause her sickness. When I have helped out friends, I ensure that I follow their directions exactly as they are written, and if anything is unclear, ensuring that I clarify or follow up. It means a lot that someone would entrust their fur family to me, so I would treat their cat or dog with the same love and attention that I give mine.

“Very happy with my puppy’s daycare experience with Rita. She is very responsive and sends lots of pictures! My pup had a lovely time and I will def return in the future for daycare and boarding :)”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats my whole life. My mom use to work at the Front Street animal shelter and used to foster dogs and cats and i would help take care of them. I go to college at Sacramento City College on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 1pm to 2:20pm. My work schedule is part-time so i only work sometimes from 5pm to 9pm I currently have 2 fur babies, one is way younger so we crate her at night because shes not fully potty trained, but in the morning and afternoon we leave our backyard door open so they can go freely. I will do anything your rules say about your fur babies, you want the crated at a certain time? Thats fine by me.

“I highly recommend Joel! My old girl was calm and happy after her day stay. Extremely considerate of Lola’s needs. She’s a picky pup and can be stressed by strangers, but not with Joel. Didn’t have to worry about her safety or well-being. A great help and huge relief.”

“Yesterday Jasmine took care my dog for the first time for 2 1/2 hours after one meet and greet. My dog is a new rescue about 1 month ago. She is uneasy around other dogs and has severe separation anxiety. Jasmine was able to help my little dog to relax in her home and even go outside around the other dogs without growling at them. I have already booked my dog for a longer stay with Jasmine in the coming week. Much more than I had hoped for. Just great!”

About: I started volunteering at the Antioch Animal Shelter in the 4th grade. Since then I have volunteered at numerous shelters and rescues, including the emergency animal shelter in Oroville after the Camp Fire. I'm Disaster Animal Rescue Team (D.A.R.T.) trained, animal CPR and first aid certified, and have years of TNR experience. I have had many exotics as pets, including a reef tank at one time. I have no issue feeding crickets and worms, but I can't feed snakes rodents. I'm a lifelong vegetarian, so that would traumatize me. Lol. I also love rodents, and currently have 2 rescue guinea pigs. Animal care and nutrition are a passion of mine. I'm also an expert teeth brusher! I brush my cats and dogs teeth every night and some of my pet sits as well. I'm very experienced giving medication, even pills to cats and my recently adopted cat Ricky is diabetic. Two of my regular cats I sit take meds, and one gets insulin injections, so I'm very comfortable with both and also know how to check blood glucose. Animals are allowed on the furniture in my home, even the bed. A couple of dogs I regularly sit sleep in the bed with me and my dogs. I treat other people's furbabies the way I would want my furbabies treated. I'm a helicopter pet parent so I totally understand how hard it is to trust someone with the ones you love. If I ever thought something was wrong with your pet I would notify you asap, and I have no issue taking an animal to the vet. I have a rescue dog who has occasional seizures and a rescue kitty with kidney disease that I give sub-q fluids to every day, so I am very comfortable with special needs animals. I'm pretty OCD when it comes to pet care. I actually have a pet thermometer and carry a microchip reader in my truck with an extra leash. You'd be surprised how many times I've used that chip reader! Being a helicopter pet parent I NEVER EVER leave an animal outside alone, not even in my fenced in yard. I don't take chances. I'm also obsessively clean, so your litter box will not be a hot mess when you return, and if your dog uses a potty pad no problem. I also have waterproof vinyl plank flooring so accidents and kitty puke is easy to clean up. :-D. When I board animals it is very much mi casa esu casa! I'm also more than happy to water plants when I do drop-ins as well, since I have them myself and am also a gardener. :-) I work from home 3 days a week and the other 2 days I come home for lunch since the office is only 2.5 miles from my house. I'm home most weekends as well. I follow the care instructions to the letter. If your pup requires a crate it must be brought with them, since mine are not crated. I am comfortable giving medication and supplements, measuring food, following a raw food diet, feeding exotics, etc. I'm also comfortable grooming for an extra fee, but will never ignore a mat in their fur or charge extra for daily grooming like toothbrushing.
