About: I’ve taken care of family friends puppy’s since I was a freshman of high school! I’ve also trained my lab and my brothers dog to be potty trained and many tricks. He is the sweetest dog ever and I believe I raised him very well😁 Im currently home for the summer after attending my first year at college, so my schedule is completely flexible for pet care! I’m available pretty much 24/7! I have a completely fenced yard with a secure gate at the front, so your baby will always be safe with me! 🐾 I also live on a hill with lots of open space for playtime and exploring, all within fenced areas of course. I have a Labrador Retriever/Golden Retriever mix of my own, and he is seriously the sweetest boy ever! He is a little shy when it comes to other dogs but has never fought with one he just needs time to get comfortable. He’s very gentle and friendly, and always enjoys the company. I regularly take him on walks around the neighborhood, so I’d be more than happy to take your baby along too if that’s something you’d like! We also have a big selection of dog toys for them to play with and try out during their stay. My goal is to make sure every pup feels safe, comfortable, loved, and right at home while they’re with me. 🩷😁
About: Hi! I’m a 21 year old college student at Porterville College and a lifelong animal lover. I live on a country property where I care for horses, chickens, cats, and dogs daily, giving me hands on experience with animals of all sizes and personalities. I offer pet sitting, overnight care, walks, drop-in visits, and boarding for pets that are comfortable around other animals. I pride myself on being reliable, attentive, and treating every pet like family. With a flexible schedule and a genuine passion for animal care, you can trust that your pets will be safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. Pet care is my full-time job, so your pet will always be my priority. Caring for animals is already part of my daily routine, and I'll have plenty of time to provide attention, playtime, exercise, medication administration, and personalized care throughout the day. I live in a peaceful country setting with a cozy home, lots of fresh air, and very little traffic. Your pet is welcome to enjoy the sights, sounds, and enrichment of country life while always being closely supervised. I also understand that every pet is different, and I'm happy to follow your preferences! Whether that means indoor-only care, crate training, a specific routine, or extra one-on-one attention. My goal is to provide a safe, comfortable environment where your pet feels right at home.
“I'm thrilled to leave a glowing 5-star review for Mel! Their care and attention towards my anxious dog P.J. were beyond exceptional. Not only did Mel provide top-notch pet sitting, but they also worked wonders by successfully grooming P.J., something we've struggled with for years. Their patience, expertise, and dedication truly set them apart. I'm immensely grateful for their services and highly recommend Mel to anyone in need of a pet sitter who goes above and beyond.”
“We went out of town to visit family for Christmas. The concerned feeling I normally get each time I think about my dog at home without us is immediately replaced with a nod and smile as I remember ‘she’s with Sandra and Bruce, she probably won’t want to come home, she loves it there so much’. We get complete peace of mind when Gracie is with Sandra.”
“Alex and her husband were wonderful to our pup Oakley. They both were so easy going and friendly which really made me feel at ease at drop off. Alex sent pictures throughout our trip and when I picked him up, I could tell he had the best time. I definitely recommend them!”
“Louie had a great time at Veronica's house. I could tell by the photos that Louie felt at home there. And loved playing with the other dogs. Veronica even arranged for a bath and grooming. He looks great. Thank!”
“Thank you Laurel for taking care of our Lilly!! The videos and pictures you sent helped my deportation anxiety lol. Thank you for your loving home and arms. You are appreciated!”
“Tania is both flexible and great! She stepped in when a prescheduled sitter proved to be unreliable. She took great care of Tobi and sent frequent photos/updates. She communicates well and was very helpful when scheduling drop and pick up. Highly recommended!”

About: I’m a proud toy poodle mom of two, so caring for small dogs is part of my everyday life. Dogs are very special to me, especially as a deaf person—I rely on body language and visual awareness, which makes me extremely observant and attentive to a dog’s needs, behavior, and safety. What sets me apart is my patience, calm energy, and strong understanding of how dogs communicate without words. I’m especially comfortable with small breeds, shy dogs, and dogs who need gentle care. I work alongside my mom in her home childcare business, which is located right next to my house. Because of this, I am home most of the day and nearby at all times. My schedule is very flexible, and I’m able to provide frequent potty breaks, feeding, playtime, and supervision. Pets in my care are rarely left alone for long periods. They become part of our calm, structured daily routine and receive lots of attention and care throughout the day. Safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a calm, clean, and supervised home environment. I closely monitor body language and behavior to ensure every dog feels safe and relaxed. I follow feeding schedules, give regular potty breaks, and keep pet parents updated with messages and photos. Your pet will be treated with love and care, just like my own two toy poodles.
“Patty and her family were very receptive to Ivy and they offered a warm and inviting environment. Ivy, who is a companion animal is excitable in new environments but this did not seem to be a problem for Patty and her family. We are very happy and will not hesitate to book her again.”

About: I worked as a professional dog walker and sitter in San Francisco in 2019. As a huge dog lover, this was a dream come true! I worked for a local company, Citizen Hound, and fell in love with every aspect of the job (and every pup!). I was responsible for two packs of 6-8 dogs who I would pick up/drop off and take for one hour walks every day. Typically these walks would be off leash, at the beach or a park, so I went through extensive training to receive my walking permit. Having grown up with dogs of my own, I understand that dogs are owner's babies, making sure to treat each dog as if they were my own! I sat many of the dogs in my packs as well as other dogs in the company that year. I have been volunteering at animal shelters for the past 7 years and therefore have experience walking a variety of dogs. I have sat blind and sick dogs, so I am comfortable with medications as well as other special needs (eye drops, IBS, separation anxiety, etc). When sitting, I love to take dogs on hikes or even to the dog park, with owners permission, to make sure they are getting exercise. I always update owners frequently and send lot of pictures! I miss all of the dogs from my packs and am looking to create new connections with both dogs and owners here in Sacramento. I would prefer to have regular clients, however I am also open to one time walks/sits. Although I am just getting started on Rover in the area, I highly encourage you to look up reviews for Citizen Hound to see the standard of care I expect of myself (: I’m currently enrolled in an online master’s program and am self employed, so my schedule is very open and flexible! I would especially love to help out during the late morning and early afternoon hours while owners are at work/school. My apartment is unfortunately not pet friendly, however I have experience pet sitting in owner’s homes. I have found this to be especially beneficial for dogs who like to stick to their regular routine and surroundings. I love taking dogs on adventures during our sits, with owner permission, and make sure to send frequent updates and photos!

About: I've been caring for cats for over 10 years, starting with my own cat, Oliver, who I've raised since he was a kitten and is now 10 years old.

I'm comfortable administering medications, feeding specialized diets, cleaning litter boxes, and providing plenty of attention, playtime, and companionship. I understand that every cat is unique, and I take the time to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away.

“Madison is the most wonderful pet sitter EVER!!! The care, attention to detail, follow up, professionalism, and the love she has for her job. We were gone for two weeks and I could enjoy my trip knowing she was there taking care of and giving the best of care to my dog and cat. The loving care was outstanding & gave us peace of mind we were on vacation. Thank you!”
About: Im very good with animals and tending for their needs. When my friends ask for my help I happily agree whether its picking up after them, giving baths, taking them on walks or just playing. I've volunteered at the bark for life in Exeter and helped run the booth, which made me realize how fun it was to see dogs and do something fun with them for a good cause. I really love animals so I always want to do the best, to take care of them as well as make sure they are happy and healthy no matter how big or small. I also have Experience house sitting families dogs. The longest I've house sat for a family friend was around 6 months. I am currently unemployed so I have plenty of time to care of your pets! My schedule is very flex able and I'd love to work around your schedule. Before anything I like to gain the trust of the dog to make sure they feel safe and comfortable with me. I haven taken care of a family dog that had anxiety meeting new people, so I implemented special techniques ( such as having my back faced away from the dog and giving them a treat) being very patient and friendly is how I make sure they feel safe.

I dropped Chevy off before heading into the park and it was super convenient and easy to find her place. She was very responsive thru text whenever I had a question.

I would definitely use her again when I come back to visit Sequoia. Thank you Gail!”

About: I’m a proud toy poodle mom of two, so caring for small dogs is part of my everyday life. Dogs are very special to me, especially as a deaf person—I rely on body language and visual awareness, which makes me extremely observant and attentive to a dog’s needs, behavior, and safety. What sets me apart is my patience, calm energy, and strong understanding of how dogs communicate without words. I’m especially comfortable with small breeds, shy dogs, and dogs who need gentle care. I work alongside my mom in her home childcare business, which is located right next to my house. Because of this, I am home most of the day and nearby at all times. My schedule is very flexible, and I’m able to provide frequent potty breaks, feeding, playtime, and supervision. Pets in my care are rarely left alone for long periods. They become part of our calm, structured daily routine and receive lots of attention and care throughout the day. Safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a calm, clean, and supervised home environment. I closely monitor body language and behavior to ensure every dog feels safe and relaxed. I follow feeding schedules, give regular potty breaks, and keep pet parents updated with messages and photos. Your pet will be treated with love and care, just like my own two toy poodles.

“I'm thrilled to leave a glowing 5-star review for Mel! Their care and attention towards my anxious dog P.J. were beyond exceptional. Not only did Mel provide top-notch pet sitting, but they also worked wonders by successfully grooming P.J., something we've struggled with for years. Their patience, expertise, and dedication truly set them apart. I'm immensely grateful for their services and highly recommend Mel to anyone in need of a pet sitter who goes above and beyond.”
“We went out of town to visit family for Christmas. The concerned feeling I normally get each time I think about my dog at home without us is immediately replaced with a nod and smile as I remember ‘she’s with Sandra and Bruce, she probably won’t want to come home, she loves it there so much’. We get complete peace of mind when Gracie is with Sandra.”
“Louie had a great time at Veronica's house. I could tell by the photos that Louie felt at home there. And loved playing with the other dogs. Veronica even arranged for a bath and grooming. He looks great. Thank!”
“Tania is both flexible and great! She stepped in when a prescheduled sitter proved to be unreliable. She took great care of Tobi and sent frequent photos/updates. She communicates well and was very helpful when scheduling drop and pick up. Highly recommended!”
