“My dog did wonderfully with Kirsten! I've tried a few different boarding options and Kirsten is by far the best! She sent a daily update to let me know how it was going and was very quick and responsive to communication about both pickup and drop off times.

“Miya is simply the best! This was our puppy's first time staying with someone who wasn't family. Miya updated us with pics and notes to share how our pup was doing.

She definitely loves dogs, and we will continue to go to her as much as possible!”

“Kazue is the caregiver of our dreams ! A caring , pup pampering, diligent communicator. Our pups were excited and relaxed at our meet and greet and returned for their first stay tugging at their leashes to go back . They got daily walks, a nice shaded grassy yard to romp around, and Kazue provided frequent pictures and updates. At the end of their stay our boys were excited to see us, but also stopped to give goodbye kisses to Kazue🥰 as We know they will miss her and be happy to return .”

“Marya had our two young Frenchies overnight for their first time away from home. She sent us pictures and a video of them settling in and getting acquainted with her larger dog. She was very thoughtful in handling our little ones and communicated really well with us. We are planning to use her for a longer trip in just a few weeks.”

He is older and is on 2 medications. They had no problem giving him those. I will definitely contact them again.”

“Emily was very communicative and made sure to always share photos of our fur babies so that we could see they were doing great without us there. She always made sure to check off every need and went beyond our expectations in taking care of our cats. I would definitely recommend!”
“Our cats love Lucy, she took great care of them! Lucy was really communicative throughout the process and we felt very comfortable leaving our girls in her care over the holidays.”
“Megan was fantastic with my cat Norman. Norman is a diabetic cat who can be aggressive with strangers when they try to give insulin, so it's often tough to find sitters who can manage him. I was so happy with how patient and compassionate Megan was with him. She was extremely reliable and a great communicator, and was able to make sure he got his insulin on time everyday. I would really highly recommend Megan, you can definitely trust her to take great care of your pet!”
“Juliana did an awesome job taking care of our kitties while we were away. The cats seemed happy to see us but not like they missed out on love and affection while we were gone. She left us text descriptions of her visits which was very nice since we didn't have an internet connection while camping.”
“Marissa is fantastic! All communication was quick and easy. She got along great with my two cats while I was away. She even works at their vets office so I felt totally safe if anything went wrong! I've already booked her again for my next trip.”
“Kelly dropped in to check on Sushi while I was away and I came home to a much less stressed out kitty cat. I got pictures and comments about how she’s behaving everyday. Would definitely book again!”
“Michelle went above and beyond from day one, when she graciously jumped through a few hoops from my apartment complex to be cleared for pet sitting at my building. It's wonderful to have someone so trustworthy and kind willing to drop in on my cats.”

“Ally was so sweet and we could tell she really wanted Opal to be comfortable. We got lots of updates which we appreciated and would absolutely have Ally watch Opal again when we’re in town next!”
“Marya has been taking good care of Finley weekly since he was just a puppy. She is very patient with my high energy dog and he gets extremely excited every time we pull into her driveway area :)”
“So awesome. Kirsten was available last minute as we were passing through woodland attending a birthday party. Needed a place for our pup to hang out for half the day and Kirsten made herself available. Even coming back a little early from her personal plans to make it all work for us. Can’t recommend her enough! Thank you!”
“She was very patient and flexible with my ever changing plans due to weather and my commitments to be at a friend’s bday. I was not able to drop my dog off , but she was more willing to take my smaller dog in and cage him in a quiet room so he would feel safe. She also agreed to take him out for a walk. Due to the weather the same day we confirmed, but on the way cancelled and paid for the day care as this is her livelihood. We could have asked to cancel, but that is not what good pet parents do. They make sure people like Mrs. Achara are taken care of as well. I will use her in the future when we are in West Sacramento. Our dog is almost 15 and she was committed to taking care of him in the way we felt was best for him.”
“Valerie was amazing! We reached out just one day before we needed someone to watch our dog, Choco, and she was incredibly accommodating. She was very flexible with both drop-off and pick-up times, which made everything so much easier for us. Throughout Choco’s stay, she kept us updated with messages and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear from the pictures that he was happy, comfortable, and having a great time with her. We’re very grateful for the excellent care she gave Choco and wouldn’t hesitate to trust her again. We highly recommend Valerie to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and communicative pet sitter!”
“Can't believe I haven't reviewed Julie's services yet! We've been taking our corgi to her for daycare for several months now and I can tell he is taken care of and loved. He's a happy boy when he comes home. Although some days he doesn't want to leave!”
“Kathleen is amazing! For Sherlock was love at first sight and he came home tired and happy. She understood my dog medical condition, asked thoughtful questions, and took good care of him. I will sure book her service again if needed!”
“Minhhan was the best Rover person I could have asked for with my Frenchie! She is so responsible, diligent and loving with my pup! I will definitely use her again and again whenever I need her support for my pup!”
“Ingrid watched our sweet Ruby last minute so my husband and I can spend the day together. Ruby returned home so happy and bummed to say bye to her new friends. We hope she’ll watch Ruby again.”
“This was Mitzi’s first time staying with Matt, and it went really well. She was a little nervous at first, but Matt was patient and made her feel comfortable. He communicated regularly and sent photo updates, which I really appreciated. By the end of the stay, she seemed relaxed and happy. I’d definitely book with Matt again. Thanks for taking such great care of Mitzi!”
“Sunshine and Shannon were great! They were very communicative throughout the day and updated me with photos and videos of my dog. It was his first time staying with them and I could tell he was very happy, comfortable, and well taken care of. I highly recommend!”
“Briana is an amazing pet sitter! We received text updates and pictures throughout our dog’s stay. He had a blast, and wanted to stay and play with his new friend! It’s clear that he was well taken care of all day, and we would comfortably leave him with Briana again. Thanks!”
“Giezell watched our toy poodle for a few hours and provided us with photos and videos throughout stay. We picked up our dog about 20 minutes late and she was very understanding and accommodating. We’ll definitely book Giezell again if we’re ever in the area!”
“Johnna took such great care of Luna. I felt completely comfortable knowing she was in good hands. We received pictures and updates that kept us feeling confident in her care. Thank you Johnna!”

“Nora was really kind and found some time for a last minute request from me. She’s been extremely responsive and responsible. Anika loves her! Will definitely keep her on my go-to list for the futyre”
“Zihui helped me so much as I'm recovering from a broken ankle and leg and needed someone to walk my high energy German Shepherd and Belgian Malinois puppy while my husband was out of town. She came and was great with him immediately and walked him for an hour every day for the entire week so that I could focus on work. She told me how each walk went and just very kind and pleasant. I definitely recommend Zihui, thank you!”
About: Hi! My name is Faith Tupin and I am a substitute Paraeducator in the Davis school district, babysitter and grad school student. I grew up on a ranch with dogs, cats, chickens, goats, and sheep. I have volunteered at my local animal shelter off and on for a few years and was in 4-H for many years. I have experience with extremely large dogs to tea cup chihuahuas, three legged dogs, dogs needing end of life care (medication administration, pet inhalers), puppies who haven’t been house trained and even service animals. I was taught how to do CPR on dogs even though i’ve never had to put my skills to use. I am active and I love long walks. I am also very clean and will make sure your house looks great when I leave. I currently am working part time and am also able to make my own schedule. This allows me to be flexible and take on additional responsibilities. I always talk to the owners to ensure that I am following their routine and keeping an eye out for any bad habits the dog may have- chewing on cords, digging by fences. I am aware of what food is toxic to dogs and never leave it out. I avoid other dogs on walks and look out for unknown food on the sidewalks that they may be tempted to eat.
“Siiri was so great with our dog! She was patient and encouraging, and somehow handled all his idiosyncrasies with grace. She was also easy to communicate and schedule with. We will definitely hire her again.”
“Ally is awesome. She goes above and beyond to help us with our senior dog, staying late and adjusting to our dog’s needs. She’s kind, diligent, responsive, and easy to work with. 5+ stars!”
About: I’ve always loved animals of all kinds. Insects, reptiles, rats, especially cats and dogs. I’ve also volunteered at the ASPCA for a year! I have experience with almost all animals, and I’d love to help take care of yours! I take care of two pets of my own, but currently don’t have a stable job. My days are open! Might as well do what I love and get payed for it. XD I have a calm smaller dog, and a cat who LOVES dogs (she’s strange I know). I live right next to a huge park and walking trail.
“I usually walk my Dalmatian every day but I got an injury and cannot do it for several weeks. So Emme-Kate has taken over until I get better! She is 100% reliable and prompt and gets a very brisk walk in for my dog every day. Thank you Emme-Kate!”
“It was a last minute trip and Matt was there for me, responding to my inquiry within minutes. Matt took care of Kye and made sure he was hydrated and his paws were safe in Sacramento’s heat.”
“XingYuan (Cindy) was amazing! She was very spontaneous, responsive, highly communicative, respectful, friendly, accommodating, informative, and above all, wonderful with our two pups. We will happily use her services again and would highly recommend her!”
“I had a great experience with Jackson walking my dog, Maggy. He was reliable, communicative, and sensitive to her needs—especially as a senior dog. It gave me real peace of mind knowing she was in such caring hands during the day. I look forward to booking him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog walker.”
About: With over 20 years of dedicated pet experience, I have developed a deep understanding and profound love for animals of all kinds. My journey began with adopting my first dog, a lively mixed breed, which ignited my passion for animal welfare. Over the years, my home has been a sanctuary for a variety of pets including dogs, cats, rabbits and even reptiles (upon occasion). I work from home most of the week, so I have a flexible schedule to meet the needs of other working professionals that are looking for a reliable, passionate pet sitter to take their fur babies on walks (or runs) while keeping them within their familiar environment. Unfortunately, at this time, I am unable to welcome any pets in my house. I have fur babies of my own that I do not wish to upset their home life.
“Juliana took my dog Ponyo on a walk this day! I really needed the help because I had exams coming up, but also felt bad because I couldn't walk my dog. She was really helpful! Ponyo had an issue with his paw, but she brought him back right away and told me about it! She was really helpful and I'm glad that she told me right away on his walk! Thanks again!”
“Emme was wonderful! Our heeler can be temperamental sometimes, but Emme came over a few days before and met her, and Piper loved her! She sent pictures and was very communicative! We will definitely be using her again!!”
“Carmen has been a terrific dog walker for our two hounds. They were practically smiling in the photos she’d send us each day. 5 stars and would definitely recommend to anyone in the Davis area looking for assistance with their pets.”
About: I’ve taken care of multiple pets before including cats, dogs, birds, and hamsters! I’ve grown up with pets so I’m very knowledgeable and experienced with pets! I can bathe, walk, and have my full time on your pet while you do what you have to!🤗 I’m available any time any day! I will make sure to send lots of updates and pictures:) I am available any day any time! I have a lot of time on my hands so my full attention would be on your pet:) I have a fenced yard and very nice walking space around where I live. I can take them on the walks they need and even bathing if they need, of course your details will come first! I’ll have my attention on your pet the full day and I really love animals and would like to use my time to care for them!
About: I have taken care of cats and dogs at all stages of their lives! From birth to old age, I have bottle-fed and waned puppies, kitten sat, as well as administered insulin shots and oral medications to older cats and dogs. One of my kitties now also takes an oral pill twice daily, so I also have some experience giving cats pills :). I am a full-time student who just moved to Davis! I have a flexible schedule, meaning maintaining strict feeding or medication times should be no problem! I make sure all water sources are clean and replaced regularly, food bowls and cans are rinsed/washed immediately to avoid lingering smells, and do a quick walk-through of the pets' spaces to make sure your fur baby(s) didn't get into things they weren't supposed to. I also love plants, so in my own home, i keep them watered and check regularly for if there are new chomps in them and would be very happy to do the same for you if that is at all a concern :). And, of course, I offer plenty of play time with the kitties!
About: I’ve spent over 10 years caring for pets, including senior pets and those with special needs, including diabetes care. I’m always happy to tailor my approach so your pet gets the exact care, attention, and routine they’re used to. As someone with pets of my own, I have a good chunk of time carved out specifically for animal care. I would love to spend my spare time with other pets while their families are away. I am committed to providing personalized care tailored to each pet’s routine and needs. In a client’s home, I maintain your pet’s normal schedule with feedings, fresh water, walks or litter box cleaning, playtime, and companionship. My goal is to keep your pet comfortable and their routine consistent to minimize any stress while you're away.

“Edward had another wonderful stay with Jessie. He gets so excited when he sees her. He’s so much happier staying with her than at a boarding kennel and she takes great care of him.”
“My dog did wonderfully with Kirsten! I've tried a few different boarding options and Kirsten is by far the best! She sent a daily update to let me know how it was going and was very quick and responsive to communication about both pickup and drop off times. I will certainly be using Kirsten again for my boarding needs.”
“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!”
“Marya had our two young Frenchies overnight for their first time away from home. She sent us pictures and a video of them settling in and getting acquainted with her larger dog. She was very thoughtful in handling our little ones and communicated really well with us. We are planning to use her for a longer trip in just a few weeks.”
“Randi and her family are a great temporary home for your dogs. They treated our dog Toby like their own with love and care. We will gladly bring him back to them in the future and we will recommend Randi to our friends and family!”
“Reginay was absolutely wonderful! She took amazing care of Kobe and sent photos and videos every single day, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear Kobe was happy and well cared for. We’re so grateful and would definitely book with her again!”
“I cannot say enough good things about Catherine and Ernie and the care they provided for my English Labrador, Luna. Luna stayed with them for six days and nights, and the difference in her behavior has been remarkable. It's now been three days since she came home, and I am still noticing positive changes in her temperament and obedience. They provided the perfect balance of structure, consistency, and what I would call "tough love," which is exactly what Luna needed. Before her stay, Luna could be difficult on walks, would pull on the leash, react aggressively toward other dogs, and even try to bite her collar when I put it on. Catherine and Ernie not only worked with Luna during her stay, but they also took the time to teach me techniques that I could continue using at home. The results were almost immediate. Luna no longer tries to bite her collar, walks much more calmly, and is significantly easier to handle on a leash. One of the biggest improvements came from introducing a prong collar and teaching me how to use it correctly. Walking Luna is now much more enjoyable, and she is far less reactive toward other dogs. Catherine also recommended training videos and resources to help me continue Luna's progress. There are countless dog-training videos on YouTube, but it was incredibly valuable to have someone show me techniques that were specifically effective for my dog. Another thing I truly appreciated was the communication. Catherine kept me updated throughout Luna's stay with regular texts, photos, and videos, which gave me peace of mind and allowed me to see Luna's progress firsthand. If you are looking for dog sitters who genuinely care about your dog's well-being and are willing to go above and beyond to help improve behavior and training, I highly recommend Catherine and Ernie. Luna came home happier, calmer, and more obedient, and I am extremely grateful for everything they did for her.”
“I’m a repeat customer. My very active terrier comes home happy and exhausted (my favorite combination!), so I know she had lots of play time. When we returned the second time she was pulling at the leash like crazy right out of the car, excited to get into that dog-friendly yard and run around.”
“Mackenzie watched our Dog Cookie for us while we went on a family trip out of town. Mackenzie was kind enough to send pictures of cookie relaxing and having a good time at her house. Cookie was very happy and had a great time with Mackenzie, we will definitely be reaching out to her whenever we have another family trip. Definitely recommend! 5/5 stars!”
“Alexandra was great with my dog. I needed a last minute boarding for Apollo and she was able to take him in. She is quick to respond. Very professional and knows how to handle my teenage boy, Apollo.”
“Rachel was fantastic! She sent us photos and progress report to keep us informed. Biscuit enjoyed spending time with Daisy and Rachel’s family. She was also very flexible with the scheduling changes that we had to ask for at the last minute. Highly recommended!”
About: I have experience with many different types of animals. I have cats, dogs, a snake, a lizard, snails, and fish. I also lived on a farm and have experience with farm animals. I am good at training dogs and have experience with animal's medication management. My dog has an anxiety disorder, and one of my cats had an intense medical scare which required medication three times a day. Work to provide the best for all my animals, and I'll work to provide the best for yours as well. I currently work part-time during the days. There is never a time where my house is unsupervised for more than a few hours at a time to go out and eat or run errands. With my dogs, I typically crate them when I leave to prevent them from causing problems like digging in the trash, but that is up to your discretion for your animal. I live in a house in a nice, quiet neighborhood. I have a fenced in yard that my two dogs frequently run around in. I have a small inflatable pool for the animals to play in during the heat. I will take care to attend to each animal's individualized needs, so if your dogs needs to be crated at certain times or has specific triggers please let me know.
“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!”
“Our sweet Sally loved her time with Kathleen! Kathleen was communicative and sent pictures of a very happy Sally! We have already booked Kathleen for an upcoming family wedding we're traveling to. We're confident it will be fun for Sally to visit Kathleen again!”
“I had to leave my dog with Nelly as we had to attend an event in Sacramento. I didn’t have time for a meet and greet as I am not from the area. Nelly & her family were great with my dog! They took special care as my dog doesn’t socialize with other dogs and hangs out with humans only. Even though it’s her first time, my dog came out so confident and cool when I went to pick her up! Nelly also kept sharing pictures while caring for her. I will be happy to rebook Nelly’s services whenever I am back in Sacramento. Thanks a bunch Nelly!”
“We love staying with Catherine and her fur babies. Everyone is so well taken care of and ends their stay happy and relaxed. Kevin and DiDi love Catherine!”
