“I was out of town for about a month and Reginay was amazing taking care of my Aussie "Nac. She keeps me updated every day with photos and videos. Nac came home in great condition after more than 3 weeks of boarding. Highly recommended!”
“Irina is wonderful! She provides daily updates and videos of Ziggy. She also notifies me if she observes anything significant about my dog, and gives suggestions. I appreciate that. Thank you for caring for Ziggy.”
“5/5! Achara had great communication and she was amazing with my puppy! My puppy didn't even look back at me when I dropped him off 🫠 Photo updates made me feel at ease and she reassured me that he was doing well. Will definitely rebook with her when I need a sitter again!”
“I wasn't sure my dog Max would want to come back home after spending time with Mayra and all the beings in her warm and comforting home. Her kind and gentle nature put us all at ease.”
“Naomi was amazing and has a huge heart for pups. She had our Benny for 2 nights and was great with communicating and updating us with photos and video of his time there. Highly Recommended! We will be using her for all our vacations.”
“Annie is really sweet. Took good care of my big fur baby who was very anxious and it was his first time staying away from home but it turned out great! Thanks Annie!”
“Yifang was able to board Todd on short notice. She was friendly and her place was clean and secured. Todd was relaxed even though it was his first time there, and he had a great stay at her home. Yifang kept me updated with pictures and messages! Five stars for her.”
“We boarded our two dogs for the first time with Carrie and her family for an overnight stay. My husband and I could tell right away that they were going to be in great hands. I appreciated the quick responses and the update on how they were doing. We would definitely utilize this amazing family again and feel safe and reassured doing so. Sincerely, The Navarrete Family”
“Wenchi was very caring and attentive to my cat- sent me lots of pictures everyday so I was never worried about her. Perfect transitions of dropping off and picking her up- my vacation was much more relaxing knowing that my cat was safe and sound. Thank you!! I will definitely be booking again in the future 😸”
“He seemed so happy there and he came back home to his usual routine with no issues (when we have boarded him with petsmart etc. there has always been an adjust period). Got some feedback on some things we can work on at home too. Thank you!”
“I just got my fur babies back from Anais’s overnight stay. She was so kind and caring to them! They adjusted well, and I was really happy with how she took care of them and kept me in the loop. We’ll definitely recommend her as a sitter again and can confidently recommend her to other fur parents who need pet care.”
“What a great team Marie & James made! Our senior pet is an active part of our family. We were so worried he wouldn’t understand our being away on a vacation without him. Upon meeting Marie and James, our Cooper seemed comfortable immediately. Their calm and openly friendly attitude was apparent. True to their word, daily pictures and videos were sent with texts. Their experience with older dogs and administering of medications was a relief. Can’t thank or praise them enough. Super nice people. Thank you! Cooper thanks you as well.”
“Wow! Kathleen and Bob and their family are such wonderful people and took AMAZING care of our Ella! Ella was spoiled with so much love and cuddles and kindness!!! We are so grateful to have found them! We loved seeing the photo updates throughout her stay, and appreciated how easy it was to stay in touch with them. We are so grateful Ella was so well taken care of!”
“Zariyah’s calendar allowed me to book care 3 months out. Loved the ability to have Midnights’ care planned so far in advance and Zariyah did not cancel on me, which was greatly appreciated, especially since this was a holiday stay. I couldn’t be happier with the care Zariyah and her family provided for Midnight while I was away for 9 days on vacation. She sent videos and responded timely as needed throughout the entire process which helped put our mind at ease and actually enjoy our vacation. When I returned, Midnight was happy and relaxed, and all items left with him were returned. It’s clear that Zariyah and her family treats clients’ pets like their own. I highly recommend her and will definitely use her services again in the future!”
“Briana was very kind! Gave lots of updates and took great care of my pup and worked with him until he felt comfortable especially since he can be nervous when meeting new people. Will definitely be back!”
“We were so pleased with our experience working with Jennifer! Our dog came back so happy and we could tell she was definitely well taken care of and loved! We were nervous to leave our dog over NYE with all of the fireworks but Jennifer did an excellent job of helping her to feel comfortable. She also provided great daily updates. So happy to have found her and will definitely look to her again for future stays.”
“This is Oreo’s second stay with Marilee, Joe and their dog Zuko. ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ I know Oreo is well cared for and enjoys his time there taking advantage of the comfy sofa & huge park like yard. We will be back for the next holiday!”

About: I’ve had a passion for animals since I was 10 years old. Growing up, I often brought home stray dogs and cats that needed love, care, and a safe place to stay. I’ve also helped friends, family, and neighbors by caring for their pets while they were out of town or busy with work. I always made sure their pets stayed on their normal feeding, potty, and exercise routines, and I treated every animal as if they were my own. I currently work part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility to care for your furry family members. I’m reliable, responsive, and happy to provide updates while you’re away. If you have any questions, feel free to send me a message, and I’ll get back to you as soon as possible. Your pets’ comfort, safety, and happiness are my top priorities. I will follow their daily routine, provide plenty of playtime, exercise, love, and attention, and make sure they feel comfortable while you’re away. If your pet has any special needs, medications, or instructions, just let me know and I’ll be happy to accommodate them. In addition to caring for your pets, I’ll also help keep your home tidy and in order so you can return to a clean, stress-free environment. It would be my pleasure to care for your pets and give you peace of mind while you’re away, knowing they’re in loving and capable hands.
“My rescue cat has a great deal of separation anxiety and Susan was SO patient and loving with him. Susan really went the extra mile to make sure he was comfortable and secure while I was away. She even watched his favorite bird videos with him on YouTube! I highly recommend Susan.”
“Victoria did everything we asked for and stayed in contact when she had questions or concerns. She was consistent when coming to our house and our cats took an immediate liking to her. I would definitely recommend her to take care of your animals.”
“A very honest and communicative sitter who will keep you updated daily.She treats animals with understanding and respect and if they need time to adjust she will do everything she can to ensure they are comfortable.”
About: Sure! Here’s a shorter version that still highlights your experience: I gained hands on experience caring for cats during my internship at the local animal shelter, where I learned about animal behavior, handling, and daily care. I’ve also cared for cats for friends, family, and neighbors by feeding them, cleaning litter boxes, and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I’m reliable, patient, and attentive to each cat’s needs.
“Very kind and communicative! Stayed with our pups in a hotel while we went to a family wedding. Felt very confident leaving our semi anxious dogs in her care. Highly recommend!”

About: Animals have always been my people. 🐾 I've spent over 20 years as a devoted pet owner, including my two wonderful Australian Shepherds.

All my friends and family rely on me to take care of their pets and homes while they are away and I wouldn’t have it any other way. Early in my career, I spent five years as a Pet Care Manager at PetSmart, caring daily for all the animals, keeping them healthy and happy until we helped pair them with their forever homes. I'm very experienced with all levels of pet care, including special needs that require medications, injections, complex dietary routines, and reinforcing training. I am ready to handle whatever your pet needs, especially extra play time and cuddles. I am equally obsessed with all dogs and cats, and care for all breeds, sizes, and ages, from puppies and kittens through their senior years.

“Our first experience with Rover daycare services & Cynthia!!! Cynthia provided pics, videos, and updates throughout the day. We never had to wonder how our pup was doing in a different environment with new human and fur friends. We are so grateful we learned about Rover and, most importantly, Cynthia made our initial experience a wonderful one for our pup.”
“I couldn't ask for more from a dog sitter. Marcie followed my instructions, provided a comfortable environment with positive stimulation, kept me updated with messages/pics and was just an overall pleasant person. Wonderful job!”
“Tresa is a lifesaver! Our two dogs love going over there. She is very flexible, a great communicator, and easy to work with. Sooo glad we found her for our deaf puppy and lab.”
“Mayra was perfect for taking care of Teddy. You can tell she loves dogs. Her two dogs were a treat for Teddy. He loved them and had a blast playing with them. She took him for a couple of walks which he gets so excited about. Teddy hates being alone so this was a great day for him. I highly recommend Mayra and will definitely use her again.”
“Briana welcomed us and Coco with open arms!!! We received photos throughout the day, which gave us a sense of calm and relief. Coco was happy and played with her new fur friend, Duke. We are looking forward to future bookings. Thank you!!!”
“Wendy was so kind with my baby and helped make sure he adjusted well. She showed so much care and my baby came back as happy as can be. She was also so understanding when we needed to switch our pick up and drop off times. Thank you so much Wendy. Would definitely book again!”
“Reginay was kind and accommodating. As far as we can tell, she took care of our pups well, and respected their space when one of ours was slow to trust new people. She even came to our home a few days ahead to meet the dogs, at our request. All in all, I would recommend Reginay for short term per sitting or day care.”
“Kat and Bob were really kind and patient with my anxious Kupo. They gave updates and pictures that helped put me at ease that he was being taken care of. I really appreciate the effort made to make him comfortable, especially around other dogs and when he wasn’t eating. Absolutely wonderful people!”

“June is the best! Bella spent the day with June and her dog Ceaser. Bella is a special needs dog and June knew just how to work with her to make her feel comfortable. June made sure to keep me posted and updated on Bella throughout her stay. She sent lots of pictures so I could see how she was doing. Her dog Ceaser was great with Bella too. Bella has become very attached to June. She also loves Ceaser, her new gentle giant friend. I strongly recommend June if you’re looking for a very responsible caring sitter for your pup. I know Bella is in good hands with June, and will be using her as our sitter in the future.”

“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!”

About: I do in kennel enrichment and dog walking at the SPCA. It has educated me a lot about positive reinforcement training, desensitization, compassion, and counter conditioning within dog behavior. I am very understanding of every dog's different temperaments and boundaries. I am the proud owner of Max, an 11 year old Pitbull who has been my best friend for over a decade. I am available anytime after 12pm, where your dog’s established routine becomes my priority. Whether they need strict mid-day feeding times or frequent potty breaks throughout the afternoon, I will be there for your pet. I am able to offer consistent, focused attention, structured enrichment, and companionship exactly when your pet needs it most. Safety is my top priority, with SPCA volunteer training and 11 years with my senior Pitbull, Max. In your home, I strictly follow your routine, maintain your house rules, and ensure all doors and gates stay locked and secure. On walks, my shelter experience means I am hyper-aware of our surroundings, good at reading dog body language, and fully confident being your dog's handler. I will send you regular photo updates so you have total peace of mind.

About: I had a beagle from age 6 to 22. From 22 to 36 I had a Maine Coon. I currently have 2 cute ginger cats and a fat grey and white cat. Everyone was a rescue! I own a small business and work from home. I can get to your home in the Elk Grove area very easily and quickly to visit with your critters. We prepare fresh meals for our cats. We haver cat backpacks and crates to transport them around. They like to visit outside and pretend they are still wild. One likes to explore. The other two are afraid of their shadows.
“Claire was amazing! Responsive and kind. Worked with me for a walk on short notice which was great! Ellie seemed to love her. Would definitely book her again!! Thanks Claire :)”
About: I’ve had dogs and cats in my life for as long as I can remember, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. From growing up with family pets to regularly watching the dogs and cats of friends and relatives, I’ve gained years of hands-on experience with a wide range of breeds, temperaments, and routines. What truly sets me apart from other sitters is the genuine bond I build with each pet—I treat every cat and dog as if they were my own. I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe, loved, and comfortable when their owners are away, and I pride myself on providing consistent, attentive care that brings peace of mind to both pets and their humans. Pet care is a natural and essential part of my daily and weekly routine. I plan my days around my pets’ needs because their well-being is always my top priority. From morning walks and mealtimes to playtime, grooming, and evening wind-downs, I make sure every aspect of their care is handled with attention and love. Caring for animals isn’t something I squeeze into my schedule—it’s something I genuinely enjoy and intentionally make time for. That same level of dedication and reliability carries over when I care for other people’s pets, as I treat them with the same love, respect, and responsibility I give my own. Whether I’m caring for pets in my own home or new clients, I prioritize comfort, safety, and consistency in their routine. In my home, I create a calm pet friendly environment where cats and dogs have space to relax, play, and feel at ease. I maintain a regular schedule for feeding, walks, play time, and bathroom breaks. When caring for pets in the client’s home I respect their space and stick closely to the routine, their dog is familiar with. I also provide regular updates photos, messages, and check in so owners feel connected and reassured.
About: I’ve always loved animals and spent the past year interning at Front Street Animal Shelter, where I gained hands on experience caring for dogs and learning more about animal behavior, safety, and daily care routines. During my internship, I worked with dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels, which helped me become patient, attentive, and comfortable handling pets with different needs. I’m passionate about providing a safe, loving, and comfortable environment for every pet in my care. I have an extremely flexible schedule. This allows me to be available from mornings through late afternoons on most days, making it easy for me to provide consistent, reliable care for pets. I prioritize safety, trust, and a calm environment for every pet in my care. I always follow the owner's instructions closely and make sure pets are supervised, comfortable, and secure at all times. My experience at an animal shelter has taught me how to read animal behavior, respond calmly in different situations, and create a low-stress environment for pets of all personalities. I treat every pet as if they were my own and aim to build trust with both pets and their owners through reliable, attentive care.
“Gigi has been great with my dog Boomer. He can be a handful when it comes to other dogs and squirrels and she always makes sure he gets the treats to him that I leave and sends me pictures which I love!”
About: We are a mother, daughter duo! You may meet myself YingYing or Annie, my daughter. However, we provide the same adequate care! Animal sitting has been a big thing of ours since we can remember and now that we have adopted Bingo, it has pushed us to do this full-time. We have had Bingo for about 3 years with no issues and no emergency pet visits. She is healthy and lively albeit a little lazy. You can say she is at the top of our food chain in our household. We live in an area where there are trails right next to our house for walks and the park is a block away. We also have a minivan that can take the doggies to the park if they have mobility issues. We are equipped in handling pushy dogs when they are walking and can control their behaviors. Additionally, we can read some body cues from dogs. Please message or email us before booking so we are aware of your dog’s situation and are able to care for them to the full extent. I am currently a stay at home mom with kids aged 10 and 14 so I can accept bookings whenever is necessary. I intend to pet sit as a full time job with opening on the weekends as well. Bingo is quite calm and careless. She is trained to go into a bedroom on command and we have multiple helping hands to situate her and your own fur baby.
About: Hi! My name is Liz. I recently re-downloaded Rover after being away for a few years, and I’m excited to start pet sitting again through Rover. I’m a college graduate with years of experience caring for pets through my mom’s Rover account, along with ongoing cat sitting jobs and trusted repeat clients. I’m known for being a great communicator, dependable, and attentive to both pets and owners. I offer house sitting, drop-ins, walks, overnight care, and can also help with light household tasks like bringing in mail/packages, watering plants, pulling trash cans in or out, and keeping your home tidy while you’re away. I especially love caring for senior pets and pets who do best staying in the comfort of their own home. I understand every animal has different needs, personalities, and routines, and I always try to make them feel safe and comfortable while you’re gone. For overnight stays, my fiancé may occasionally accompany me for safety and comfort purposes, but your pet’s care and respect for your home always come first. I’m happy to communicate openly beforehand so everyone feels comfortable and confident. Feel free to message me anytime with questions. I respond quickly and would love to see if we’re a good fit for you and your pets! Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine because I currently have a very flexible schedule during the week. Outside of pet sitting, I spend my time applying to jobs in clinical research, running errands, doing chores, and meeting with friends, which gives me plenty of availability and flexibility for drop-ins, walks, overnight stays, and last-minute bookings. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, so caring for pets never feels like a chore to me. I’m very attentive with feeding schedules, playtime, walks, litter box cleaning, medications if needed, and making sure pets feel comfortable and cared for while their owners are away. At this time, I only offer care in my client’s home because I have an anxious 9-year-old tabby cat at home, and I want to keep his environment calm and stress-free. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always try to maintain their normal routine so they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. For overnight stays, I usually stay in the guest room or designated area of the home, and many pets enjoy sleeping nearby or spending time with me throughout the day. I’m very respectful of your home and prioritize cleanliness, safety, and communication. I make sure doors are securely locked, pets are supervised carefully, and feeding, walks, litter box cleaning, playtime, and potty breaks are handled consistently. I also pay close attention to your pet’s behavior and comfort level to help reduce stress and keep them happy during your absence. My goal is always to create a calm, trustworthy, and loving environment where both you and your pets feel comfortable and cared for.
About: I have owned and cared for cats and dogs my entire life. I’ve also looked after other pets for friends and family while they were away on vacation. I genuinely love animals and understand the importance of providing them with attention, care, and companionship. Whether it’s feeding, walking, playtime, or simply keeping them company, I’m here to help and ensure your pets are well cared for while you’re away. I will help care for your pets while you are on vacation or unable to care for your pets while you are at work or need a short break. I have a gate , my pets all stay inside, my big dog stays outside in the back and on nice days he will come to the front yard since it’s fence in.
About: Hi there, welcome to my Profile! :) Ever since I was a child, I've been extremely passionate about pets. I grew up caring for dogs, cats, bunnies, reptiles, and even goats. I even helped my cat birth a litter of kittens right in my very own bedroom when I was in fourth grade. I have experience with senior-pets, administering medication, bottle-feeding, and even crate-training. Animals aren't able to verbally express their needs like us, so experience is necessary in order to figure out what each one needs to live a happy life. I've translated this experience into my job working with special needs children and adults. I'm extremely patient, caring, and passionate about making a positive impact on the world. I hope you entrust me with the care of your pet! I'm currently working part-time at a second job and have a great amount of free time! I'm available seven days a week, times will change weekly. I'm extremely flexible and able to work with different schedules! I have a fenced yard including a fence surrounding my in-ground pool. Pictures can be provided if necessary! I have a medium-sized backyard including a grass area for potty breaks.
About: Hello! My name is Naiomie, and I'm excited to offer my services as a dog sitter on Rover. As a lifelong animal lover and proud dog owner, I understand just how important it is to ensure your furry family members receive the love, care, and attention they deserve while you're away. As your dog sitter, you can rest assured that your pup will receive exceptional care, love, and attention tailored just for them. As a fur mom, I understand the importance of feeling confident in your dog sitter. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry friend! Please note that I do work a hybrid schedule currently, so I may or may not be able to take your request. :( But if planned in advance, I can do my best to accomodate! I work currently work a hybrid schedule and willing to accommodate with advanced noticed, just let me know what your requests are! I have more flexibility on weekends. I have a fenced yard and two friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company. I have a beautiful park outside my home to take your pup on walks and get active.
About: With years of hands-on experience caring for dogs since age 15, I bring calm, reliable, and high-attention care to every pet I work with. I’ve volunteered with the Humane Society and a local Bay Area puppy rescue, and I’m especially confident supporting puppies, senior pets, and animals who require extra medical attention. I’ve raised two dogs of my own—Player (a full-sized Collie) and Kona (a toy Maltipoo)—and have provided ongoing care for an Australian Shepherd (from 8 weeks old through adulthood), a senior German Shepherd, and a Bengal cat. My goal is always to make your pet feel safe, loved, and completely at home while keeping routines and care instructions consistent, while letting you feel reassured your pet is in good hands while you are away with as many updates as you’d like! I have open availability so I am able to drop by for walks, check-ins, or overnight stays as you need. I find that keeping the dog in their own environment is the least stressful to them. I am able to accommodate whatever you and your fur baby needs! I do have a fenced in yard with no current animals in the house, however I find it best for me to stay in the dogs normal environment vs bringing them into a new one. I am open to discussing if you prefer I keep them at my place, but heavily prefer staying at your home with them.
About: I live in the Sacramento Delta in a quiet neighborhood. Great neighborhood for walks and a nice fenced corner lot yard for your pup to run around in. I live with my elderly father who enjoys meeting new doggy friends. 24 hr supervision since I work remotely! I’m an early riser and enjoy morning walks. Your doggy will recieve a good amount of outdoor time and have an active and stimulating day. I’m comfortable with your dog sleeping in bed with me but respect if you prefer them to sleep in a crate. I work remotely so I have no issue staying at your house as well!

“I was out of town for about a month and Reginay was amazing taking care of my Aussie "Nac. She keeps me updated every day with photos and videos. Nac came home in great condition after more than 3 weeks of boarding. Highly recommended!”
“5/5! Achara had great communication and she was amazing with my puppy! My puppy didn't even look back at me when I dropped him off 🫠 Photo updates made me feel at ease and she reassured me that he was doing well. Will definitely rebook with her when I need a sitter again!”
“Annie is really sweet. Took good care of my big fur baby who was very anxious and it was his first time staying away from home but it turned out great! Thanks Annie!”
“He seemed so happy there and he came back home to his usual routine with no issues (when we have boarded him with petsmart etc. there has always been an adjust period). Got some feedback on some things we can work on at home too. Thank you!”
“I just got my fur babies back from Anais’s overnight stay. She was so kind and caring to them! They adjusted well, and I was really happy with how she took care of them and kept me in the loop. We’ll definitely recommend her as a sitter again and can confidently recommend her to other fur parents who need pet care.”
“What a great team Marie & James made! Our senior pet is an active part of our family. We were so worried he wouldn’t understand our being away on a vacation without him. Upon meeting Marie and James, our Cooper seemed comfortable immediately. Their calm and openly friendly attitude was apparent. True to their word, daily pictures and videos were sent with texts. Their experience with older dogs and administering of medications was a relief. Can’t thank or praise them enough. Super nice people. Thank you! Cooper thanks you as well.”
“Wow! Kathleen and Bob and their family are such wonderful people and took AMAZING care of our Ella! Ella was spoiled with so much love and cuddles and kindness!!! We are so grateful to have found them! We loved seeing the photo updates throughout her stay, and appreciated how easy it was to stay in touch with them. We are so grateful Ella was so well taken care of!”
“Zariyah’s calendar allowed me to book care 3 months out. Loved the ability to have Midnights’ care planned so far in advance and Zariyah did not cancel on me, which was greatly appreciated, especially since this was a holiday stay. I couldn’t be happier with the care Zariyah and her family provided for Midnight while I was away for 9 days on vacation. She sent videos and responded timely as needed throughout the entire process which helped put our mind at ease and actually enjoy our vacation. When I returned, Midnight was happy and relaxed, and all items left with him were returned. It’s clear that Zariyah and her family treats clients’ pets like their own. I highly recommend her and will definitely use her services again in the future!”
“Briana was very kind! Gave lots of updates and took great care of my pup and worked with him until he felt comfortable especially since he can be nervous when meeting new people. Will definitely be back!”
“This is Oreo’s second stay with Marilee, Joe and their dog Zuko. ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ I know Oreo is well cared for and enjoys his time there taking advantage of the comfy sofa & huge park like yard. We will be back for the next holiday!”
“Shakti just loves being with Teresa. She’s always so holy and tired when she comes home. We get tons of pics and quick responses to texts. Teresa is the best!”
“Our dogs had an amazing stay with this daughter and mom duo. They gave us daily updates and we can tell they loved our dogs like their own. They had a nice yard and space for the dogs to go out and play in! Even with the yard space they still took them on walks and played ball with them. We will definitely book with them again in the future!”
About: Animals have always been my people. 🐾 I've spent over 20 years as a devoted pet owner, including my two wonderful Australian Shepherds. I am so grateful to have had them in my life to love and spoil! Ella and Maddie were well traveled too, even visiting the Grand Canyon and Yosemite! All my friends and family rely on me to take care of their pets and homes while they are away and I wouldn’t have it any other way. Early in my career, I spent five years as a Pet Care Manager at PetSmart, caring daily for all the animals, keeping them healthy and happy until we helped pair them with their forever homes. I'm very experienced with all levels of pet care, including special needs that require medications, injections, complex dietary routines, and reinforcing training. I am ready to handle whatever your pet needs, especially extra play time and cuddles. I am equally obsessed with all dogs and cats, and care for all breeds, sizes, and ages, from puppies and kittens through their senior years. I’m also experienced caring for birds, fish, reptiles, and small pets. 🐱🐰🐠 🐦🦎 I work remotely with a flexible schedule, so your babies get my attention all day! As a longtime Rover client myself, I know exactly what you're looking for when you're searching for the right sitter: someone experienced, trustworthy, and who will treat your animals like their own. That's a promise I take seriously. I'm currently welcoming new clients in the Elk Grove area and would love to meet you and your crew. I look forward to meeting you and your fur babies! 🐶 🐱 I work remotely and can dedicate most of my time hanging out with your fur babies! I’m able to stay in your home full time. I am child free and currently do not have a dog or cat. Currently, I am able to house sit and only offering boarding in my home on a case by case basis. You let me know what your fur baby needs and I have it handled! They will get my all my attention, cuddles, and play time.
“Qiana was awesome! She sent multiple videos and pictures everyday with great communication. Dexter seemed to be safe and had a great time with her. She also gave a very nice gift when I picked him up!”
“Brandee is a dog whisperer! We’re so thankful to have found her. We needed a dog sitter two times in 10 days and our pup couldn’t have been at a better place.”
“Ceudi and her wonderful family were great sitters for our senior Boxer (11yr). She was attentive to his medical needs (medicine and care) and stubborn habits. She sent daily updates and always responded quickly to our messages. She lives in a nice neighborhood with a large park nearby. We will definitely be reaching out to her for our future sitting needs.”
“I was really nervous about leaving Lewis behind because he's still recovering from surgery (the wound is healed, but he's still fragile), but Jennifer did a great job of keeping his activity restricted while still making sure both of my dogs got lots of love. She also provided regular (2x/day) updates and daily pictures, so I never had to wonder how they were doing. I will absolutely be using her again when I need a sitter in this area.”
