About: I’m an experienced full-time pet caregiver with hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. I’ve raised and worked with breeds including Huskies, German Shepherds, Labs, Golden Retrievers, Whippets, Yorkies, Chihuahuas, Dachshunds, and more. In addition to my personal experience, I currently volunteer with Front Street Animal Shelter where I’ve received training in dog handling, fear-based behavior support, basic grooming, and working with traumatized or anxious animals. I’m comfortable with large breeds, leash pullers, reactive dogs, puppies, and senior pets. I focus on providing dependable care, structured routines, long engaging walks, and clear communication so owners always feel informed and confident while away from their pets. I treat every animal with patience, attentiveness, and respect for their individual needs and personality. I’m available for recurring walks, drop-ins, sitting, holidays, early mornings, late evenings, and last-minute bookings. I currently serve Elk Grove, Natomas, West Sacramento, Rocklin, Folsom, and surrounding Sacramento areas. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! Every morning I feed my animals by 730am and in the evenings by 500pm. I currently work part time and do not start my shifts before 930am. When feeding the animals, I spend time with them. My cat - I pet him after he finishes and brush him. With my dogs - I play frisbee and in the yard with them. We also go on at least 2 walks each day for exercise with the dogs. My cat is trained to be on a leash as well and goes for walks 1 time a week. For the dogs, we have a fenced in backyard and extra room in the house to play. We have toys and frisbees as well. At my clients house, I play with the animals in the back yard or house depending on area. Taking care to brush, water, and feed them. Giving the animals the attention they deserve and need while their family is gone. I stay attentive to their needs, moods, and energy levels to engage with them properly.
“Roy did a fantastic job with my two pups! I contacted Roy to walk my dogs, to give them a break while I had to attend a 2 day, all-day, work event. Communication was excellent. I was updated with arrival times and provided status updates with photos. It really helped quell any anxiety I was having, since this was my first time using any kind of walking service. Roy provided a meet & greet prior to the scheduled walking appointments, which was awesome, since one of my pups can be a little on the shy side at first meeting. I would absolutely recommend Roy and plan to work with him again. Thank you, Roy!”

I am a full time MSW graduate student and Rover is my primary source of income, so my summer schedule is wide open, and my schedule while school is in session will be based around my class schedule.

“Jacob is literal perfection! He cared for my multiple dogs and gave me peace of mind even though I am new to using Rover. He is meticulous, kind and goes above and beyond. He truly loves animals and I could not even imagine a better experience. He will be our Sitter for as long as he will have us. Thank you for loving my babies while I am not home. You made me a loyal fan and my sometimes reactive dogs adore you too! Perfection!”

“Oreo and I so appreciate Amanda and Hector’s help during these beginning weeks of the new school year! I know Oreo looks forward to going on his lunch potty breaks with Hector where he can sniff to his heart’s content. 🐕 💜 🥰 We truly appreciate Hector’s flexibility when he comes a bit earlier some days due to the hotter weather or Oreo’s needs. We will definitely be requesting Amanda & Hector again!”

“Carrie is great ! She responds quickly to messages and was able to help me out with my 2 dobermans with little notice. Check-ins at my house, feeding, and took them on an extra long walk. She also updates me with pictures and let me know when she arrived and left. I look forward to using Carrie for all my doggy needs. Thanks Carrie!”
“Katherine is a super star! Not only did she come at a moment's notice (saving the day after I injured myself) but she was really attentive to my dogs. I recommended that she take each dog separately, which she did. She came back rather quickly though and let me know that Harry was being shy and might do better if Alfie walked with him. And it did! They had a great walk, did their business, and now I can rest easy knowing there won't be little surprises left throughout my house :) Thanks Katherine!”
“I 100% trust my dog with Arianna! She always leaves notes about how he did on his walk and I really appreciate it! She gives me peace of mind while I’m at work. I know my dog is in good hands :)”
Upper Land Park dog parents share their Rover experiences
Jacob has been so supportive and patience with our recently adopted dogs especially one who has discipline issues. He has gone out of his way to assist us, shared tips, handled we’ve very calmly and provided free consultation even. I could not recommend Jacob enough and we are lucky to have found him!! We have booked him for longer sitting when we will be traveling next month and knowing who he is provides us a lot of comfort for our recent adopted family!
Christine was an excellent walker for our dog Bella. She came over the day before to meet her, was exactly on time for her walk and sent to a of pictures even including some of our jealous kitty who doesn’t get to go outside! She was accommodating when I plugged in the wrong time and again when I had to cut my trip short due to my daughter getting ill. I will absolutely use Christine in the future!
Amina was great! She responded to my request quickly, was punctual and proactively communicated. My grand dog warmed to her immediately and they had a great walk. She also helped me navigate the Rover app since I’m old - lol. I highly recommend her for walks and if I lived in the Sac area full time, I would use her regularly. She gave me peace of mind knowing he was well cared for. She was professional and personable and I can’t thank her enough!
Andrea is amazing. I had a logistically complicated day, coming through Sacramento from 1.5 hours away for a doctor appointment and then continuing on for the last two hours of my trip. I'd never met her so I was worried about all the chances for something to go wrong. But everything was *perfect*. First, Andrea was amazing about staying in touch, and answered questions quickly and cheerily. She was extremely flexible, and even showed up a bit early so I'd had no reason for anxiety. My pup Willie loved his time with her and her boyfriend. It couldn't have been a better experience. Thank you, Andrea!
Alexander did an excellent job walking my dogs, Rue and Reo. They were both patient and playful with them, which made a big difference in how comfortable and happy they were during each visit. It’s clear they genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs and know how to handle different personalities. I also really appreciated how communicative they were with me throughout the process. They kept me updated during each visit, which gave me peace of mind knowing my dogs were in good hands. I would definitely recommend Alexander to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog walker.
Tyson was immediately accepted by our dog, Chance. Then he only needed to hear the walk and feed instructions once, so keeping Chance inside of his routine as much as possible and providing us with peace of mind. Really happy with Tyson and grateful for his natural way with animals.
I have a small breed senior dog and a cat. Its hard to find someone I feel I can trust to give them the same care and attention as myself when I am away from home. Natalie is someone I know I can trust my babies with, she takes a bunch of photos each time she walks my dog and feeds him. She goes above and beyond every time and I can tell my dog and cat absolutely adore her and are happy when she comes to help. Thank you Natalie!
Myishia walked our Diego multiple times this past weekend, and I truly could not have asked for a better experience. She was incredibly communicative the entire time, which gave me so much peace of mind while we were away. Her energy is so warm and sweet, and Diego immediately took to her. You can tell she has a genuine love for dogs. I was especially impressed by her philosophy of leading with kindness and giving back through the way she cares for animals. She didn’t just show up to do a job; she took the time to earn Diego’s trust, and it showed. We felt completely comfortable knowing he was in her care. We will absolutely be using her again anytime we travel. Highly recommend.
