“Grant was very easy to communicate with and he sent pictures while we were away. It was the first time we boarded our dog so we were a little nervous, but she had a great time, and it was very easy to trust that Grant would take excellent care of her. His property is also ideal for dogs to explore, have fun, and exercise! Booking her next stay now!”
“It was our first time utilizing anyone to board our dog. we were pretty nervous but the very first day our dog was with her, she sent photos! I was not able to drop her off so I didn't get to go over the details but I wanted to and did not realize that my boyfriend had left several things out. That being said after multiple text messages she totally got a feeling for our dog and took it from there. While we were gone I received videos and photos and updates. When he picked her up he said he could tell she had a lot of fun. I was very impressed and would definitely recommend and re-book her for anytime we need someone to watch our dog. When we adopted her she was very skittish and Kelsey made her feel at ease and myself as well! Thank you so much!!!”
“Ruby does a great job and communicates well. The pictures and videos sent daily are wonderful. I would recommend Ruby for dog care and we hope to use Ruby’s service again on future needs.”
“Alesya was wonderful! She sent us numerous pictures and communicated daily on Mia’s progress while she was staying with Alesya and her family. It’s obvious that Alesya cares deeply about the dogs that she watches.”
“Very nice experience for us. This was the first time I’ve had to board my dog and I was worried about her reaction to being alone. Samantha kindly reassured me that she would be okay. There is a large fenced area for off leash play time. Blondie was taken on long walks and was bedded down in a stall in a former stable. She had a cozy bed and a heater. When we picked her up she looked happy and comfortable. We are very satisfied with Samantha’s kind care of Blondie.”
“Jena had our sweet Rocky for over 2 weeks during the holidays. It warmed our hearts to see him having such a wonderful time with her and her family. It’s so hard to find people you can trust to care for your pet, I’m so glad we found Jena ❤️”
“Haley is amazing. I’ve received lots of updates and pictures from her. She was very accommodating on my late pick up. Smokey even got a toy from her! I felt very comfortable leaving him with her. I’m willing to drive more than an hour as long as I know Smokey is going to be well cared for.”
“Nicole was awesome and Bailey had a fantastic time. She treated Bailey like she was her own dog and I couldn’t ask for more sent many pictures and updates and just love the fact that I have somebody that I can go to if I have to go out of town I highly recommend her.”
“My dog was well taken care of. She is shy but Sandra successfully pulled her out and made her comfortable. Lots of pics, lots of walks, and lots of cuddles. We’ll definitely use her again!”
“Allie was absolutely fantastic with our anxious pup, Shiloh! She showed incredible patience with Shiloh’s anxiety, creating an environment where our nervous girl felt safe and comfortable.What impressed us most was her adaptability and patience not only with Shiloh but also with us. We had several unforeseen incidents during our international trip (i.e., communication difficulties) that would have annoyed even a saint, but she handled everything like a true professional, always maintaining a positive, friendly attitude. Her communication was excellent throughout, keeping us updated and addressing any concerns promptly. We loved that her three kids love to play with dogs! They all helped out with Shiloh, giving her plenty of attention and playtime, which was wonderful for her socialization. Seeing how much her whole family enjoyed interacting with our dog made us feel even more comfortable leaving her in their care. It’s clear they genuinely love dogs and know how to work with different personalities and needs.I can’t recommend Allie (and her family) highly enough for anyone looking for a reliable, patient, and skilled dog sitter, especially if your pup has special needs or anxiety issues. We’ll definitely be booking with her again!”
“Debra was wonderful. I was half was around the world & never worried about my boy. She sent lots of pictures & updates, which kept my mind at ease & allowed me to enjoy my trip. I have trouble finding people to watch my boy because Chow Chow’s have a bit of a bad reputation, even though mine is sweet as can be. She didn’t hesitate & I’m so grateful. Would use her services again & again. 🐾”
“Fantastic. Excellent. Wonderful! I'm still in awe of the dog sitting experience we just had with Linda and Dan. They are so very caring, kind and warm, and they cared for my pup like he was a member of their own family. Their expansive grounds are absolutely stunning and the winding paths which lead down to the pond made me feel like I was away at camp. I was ready to board myself there! ? Linda was so good in keeping me updated with photos of my pup playing and running around. He always looked like he was having a good time and it didn't surprise me when I went to pick him up and he actually didn't want to leave. Thank you, Linda and Dan, for taking such great care of my fur baby. We look forward to seeing you again hopefully one day.”
“Jennifer and her family are the best! I never worry leaving our boy with them. He has so much fun and comes home tired. Jennifer was so flexible this time when we had to drop Cooper off a little early, thank you again!”
“Lisa was great taking care of our Rhodesian Molly. She knows how to read dogs and gives them sufficient quiet time when they get over stimulated. I plan to use Lisa again in the future and would not hesitate in recommending her.”
“Lainey loved her stay with Amanda! Amanda sent me lots of photos and kept in good communication. She took our dog out on walks and did lots of outside time with her. She was also flexible with pickup time for us!”
“This wonderful family took excellent care of Mia for a whole week while we were on vacation. They kept in touch regularly with texts and photos and it was clear that they cared for Mia as if she was their own.”
“We booked my American Akita with Sam for 8 days this September when I travelled overseas, Sam took good care of my Akito and sends us pictures everyday of what akito is doing or did on that day. I see my dog is always smiling and happy with his dog buddies going for walks and Dog Park. Will definitely book Akito for future boarding again with Sam, I gave him a Five star Rating.”
“Sarah (and her wonderful daughters) went above and beyond caring for our fur babies! Leaving your pets behind is always tough, but Sarah made it completely worry-free. She kept us in the loop the entire time and sent the sweetest photo updates that totally brightened our days. Our dogs absolutely adored her and her family—they looked so incredibly happy, relaxed, and loved in every single picture. It is such a relief to find a sitter who truly treats your pets like their own. Sarah is reliable, communicative, and exceptionally kind. We cannot recommend her highly effects and will definitely be booking her again!”

“Carla was absolutely wonderful with our kitty, Kiki! We were traveling last‑minute and were so nervous to leave her, but Carla eased all of our worries right away. She communicated constantly, sent thoughtful updates, and showed so much genuine care for Kiki. She went above and beyond—cleaned up litter, managed an ant situation, refreshed food and water, and made sure Kiki got tons of love and attention every visit. Kiki adored her, and we came home to a happy, relaxed cat. We are so grateful for her reliability, kindness, and attention to detail. We would 100% trust her with Kiki again. Highly recommend Carla!”
“Lez did a wonderful job cat and house sitting while we were out of town for the week. There was easy communication via text while we were away. Our senior cat enjoyed her company and care. We returned to a well kept home and we wouldn’t hesitate to use Lez’s services again.”
“Sienna took amazing care of my kitties for the weekend and made me feel super relaxed and comfortable. My cats are very shy but she got them out of their shells the first day with her attentiveness and care. Sienna did an excellent job communicating throughout the weekend and sent me a ton of pictures of my cats which made me so happy! I would absolutely recommend her to anyone- you can really tell she cares deeply for animals.”
“Isabella arrived right on time for Mazie’s drop-in walk and kept me updated throughout. She was attentive and communicative, and best of all, she sent photos from their time together—I loved seeing Mazie enjoying the outing. Isabella clearly cares about the dogs in her care. Mazie was happy when she got home. Couldn’t ask for better. Will definitely book again!”
“Rebekka was amazing with my cat and dog. I could just tell by the photos she sent us how much they loved having her company. She went above and beyond with everything, especially communication. You can trust her with your fur babies!”
“I cannot say enough good things about my dog walker. He takes amazing care of my two big dogs — my little beasts — and handles them with confidence, calmness, and kindness. They absolutely adore him. He’s reliable, patient, and clearly experienced. I feel completely comfortable trusting him with my dogs, which is huge for me. Every walk is consistent, safe, and positive. If you’re looking for someone who genuinely cares about your pets and treats them like his own, he’s the one. Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve had/ taken care of all types of animals my whole life. Rabbits, birds, dogs, cats, hamsters, and fish. I love animals and being around them.

Depending on the service you are looking for I do like a list of things you do for your pet and when as I want to make sure your pet is cared for the way you would as well want to make sure your pet is comfortable.
“Benjamin was wonderful. I could tell through the pictures and the description that he really cares. My cat does not normally like males, but he warmed up to him and even wanted cuddles from him. I felt very safe and secure leaving my home and baby in his hands. Benjamin is my new favorite pet sitter!”
About: I genuinely LOVE taking care of dogs. I’ve been trusted by friends and family to watch their pets, and I treat every dog like they’re my own.

I care for them as I would want my own to be taken care of. They will get their play time, treats/food, and love and attention.
“Maryjane was great! She stepped in when an emergency forced my other sitter to end the stay early and she picked up the care for my cat without missing a beat! My cat clearly loved her, too. He was happy and well fed, and my apartment looked great when I got home! I will definitely book with her again!”
“Sabrina is a joy to work with to watch our lil dude Nico. Her communication is fantastic and she always went the extra mile to ensure he was well-cared for. We had complete ease of mind being away and knowing that he received lots of love, cuddles and care.”
“Alex was incredibly patient and communicative with the cats and any issues she had. I appreciated everything she did while I was away on vacation and felt very comfortable leaving them in her hands.”
About: Not only do I have 10 years of experience of pet sitting, I have experience working with shelter dogs. I’ve been with Placer SPCA as a volunteer for many years. I work with fearful, excitable, shy and even reactive dogs on a weekly basis. I make sure to give them the best care I can provide. I have plenty of free time and my shelter schedule is very flexible! I spend most of my time caring for pets or working with animals. I am someone that you can contact last minute for pet sitting! I will make sure that your pet gets all the love, care and attention your best friend could possibly need. I provide mostly overnight care, in which I make sure your pup is cared for in the same way you do every day. Building trust is very important to me, I’ll make sure to send pictures of your dog (or other animals) along with a report of how they are doing and any other info you may need.
About: There hasn’t been a time in my life when I didn’t have a companion animal, and cats have always held a massive place in my heart. I have extensive experience owning, fostering, and sitting cats of all ages, personalities, and backgrounds—from energetic kittens to independent seniors. I know that cats are creatures of habit who thrive on consistency, and I pride myself on stepping in to provide a seamless routine, picking up exactly where you left off so your cat feels safe and secure while you're away. I know that cats operate on their own terms. Whether your cat is a social butterfly who craves constant chin scratches, or a shy hider who needs space and a quiet environment, I read their body language and respect their boundaries. I never force interaction, allowing them to warm up to me naturally.
About: I’ve taken care of cats of all kinds for as long as I can remember. I have even volunteered at a cat shelter. I am quite familiar with cats’ behavior and body language. I do not currently have any cats of my own in my home, so will absolutely jump at the chance to meet yours! The cat in my profile picture is one of many neighborhood cats who has come right up to me for some love!

About: Hi! My name is Robert, and I’m a proud dad of two little ones and a dog dad to two pit bull mixes.

“John is top notch! He gives our pup lots of 1:1 attention, several walks and love. Tess is excited to go to daycare and comes home happy and tired. The household is a perfect blend of calmness and energetic interaction. Tess seems at home. We couldn’t be happier with John! Thank you for treating our pup as your own and for the consistent communication and responsiveness.”
“Jennifer did a wonderful job caring for our Golden Retriever in her home! She was professional, kind and caring, with us (dog parents) and our dog! Jennifer provided text updates and pictures which we LOVED and appreciated! Jennifer and her family took excellent care, feeding and supervision of our Kea, and I would highly recommend her care for other dogs!”
About: I have always grown up with animals as a child. I own 2 animals and have 3 kids. Usually you'll find me volunteering for shelters doing different things: doggy day out for shelter dogs, bottle feeding puppies and kittens, helping at adoption events. Additionally to volunteering I am also offering my all round pet care in my neighborhood. I love to take dogs on long walks and treat them like they are my own. Open to your house or mine whatever fits best into your schedule and works with your pets ! I am working from home and I have a 3rd grader I am homeschooling. So me and him are ready to be active and offer pet services in Lincoln and beyond! I am happy to work with what your pets need. Whether they are used to the kennel, have their special sleeping place etc. I am offering individualized care !!
“Their home and property is fantastic. My dog smiled every minute she was there. I would give Linda and her husband 10 🌟 if I could! My Ruby was treated with genuine loving ❤️ care...”
About: I have experience with puppies, beginner obedience training and potty training. Senior dog care, special needs, surgery or vet procedure recovery and care. Active dogs that need lots of engagement and exercise or dogs that just want to hang out and cuddle. I work primarily from home, have a safe and fenced yard. Our home is open with lots to explore or we can provide a safe, quiet space if your pet needs that. I have a safe, fenced yard they can run around in or if they would rather hang out with me, sit in my lap, lay in my bed. I walk multiple times a day and have nature and walking trails around my home. I have a quiet room if your pet needs quiet space or they can run around the house and explore and play with my kids (10 and 12) and hang out with my family.
“Oh my goodness, out of the many different sitters we have worked with on Rover, Pam is by far the best we have ever encountered. That is to say that the care that she and her husband provided our nervous little puppy was 100% perfectly suited to his needs. No competing dogs, no high energy little kids to amp our puppy’s nervous energy into high gear. Perfectly calm home environment that is perfectly suited for anyone who has a high energy dog or puppy that needs calm spaces to remind them how to act calmly. So very grateful for the care Rocky received in this “daycare””
“Our Golden Retriever felt right at home with Sara. She sent several pictures during the day and he was happy when we picked him up - loved finding a new palate in Sara’s pooch. We hope it will work out to use her again … and again !”
About: We are a loving family with two young girls and a dog. We enjoy being outdoors and spend much of our time in the garden. Our property features a pond for dog-paddling, a lawn for ball throwing, and many trails for exploring. I am a stay at home mom so I’m able to give around the clock care. We usually go for a walk through the orchards after breakfast and spend most of our day outside, watering the gardens and doing work around the property. We also enjoy an evening stroll before bed. We live on 10 acres and have a perimeter fence as well as a fenced backyard for free play. We have a private, secure dog run if your pup is more comfortable in their own space as well. We are usually up between 6-7, we can feed breakfast then or after our morning walk around the property to feed the farm animals. We do a lot of outdoor play and work in the garden that our boarding dogs usually love. I am a stay at home mom and Michael works from home so your dog gets constant companionship. We have a fenced yard that attaches to our house and a doggie door so your dog can go in and out as it pleases. This area is the main place your dog will stay when we are not romping around the farm.
“Erin & Erin take care of our beloved dog Chip once a week when we both go into the office. It was so important for us to find someone who would take great care of him and love him as much as we do and we feel so lucky to have found those things with Erin & Erin. Chip gets so excited when we arrive at their house - he doesn’t even turn back to give me a goodbye! He has a great time playing with their pup Otis and comes home happy and tired. We highly recommend this family if you need care for your pup and want peace of mind that are in great hands.”
About: I have cared for and loved animals since I was a little girl. I was raised in a house with dogs of all types and have continued to have them in my life. I have two rescues, a 6-lb sweet female chihuahua and a 30-lb shy male terrier mix, that love to be around other dogs but who also are submissive to and respect other dogs’ needs for their own space. Having been a zookeeper and vet tech, I have worked on training various critters, as well as cared for elderly animals that need special attention or medications. I work from home with my husband full time and we are always ready for fur baby snuggles on our couch and bed. We also live near a canal and trails, so dog walks are very frequent in our home. Because we live farther away, we are also willing to come do pickups to keep you from having to drive to us, but we understand completely wanting to see where your pups are staying. I work from home nearly full time except Tuesdays, but my husband is home full time everyday. I am an early riser and can do early walks/pickup/potty breaks. As we are working on house projects due to this being a new and first home purchase, we are gone a ton on the weekends too. If I am staying at your home, I can arrange to be there constantly because my husband is home to care for my pups. I don’t have a fenced yard, but live very close to a dog park that is fenced. I also have a canal trail right off my driveway and we walk our two dogs on it all the time. My two babies are extremely sweet and friendly with other dogs. I am an extremely tidy and organized person, so whether your pup stays with me or I come to your home, I can guarantee I will always leave things as good or better than I found them. Also, if you have any last-minute travel issues, I can almost always adapt to host longer to make sure you don’t have to stress about what will happen to your pup.
About: I’ve lived around pets since I can remember! I’ve housesat for homes with rambunctious dogs, sassy kittens, and met my match in a St Bernard! If you feel like your fur baby is a challenge, I’m up to it. I’ll always do my best to be flexible to last minute requests, it never hurts to ask. I typically work 4-6 hour shifts in the morning/afternoon. My calendar can usually be adapted, just communicate! My favorite part about this service is that | get build a bond with each pet, it's a privilege building their trust and getting to learn all about their eccentricities.

About: I have had pets my whole life. I have experience with dogs from English mastiffs, to chihuahuas. I love cats, lizards, birds, literally all animals. I work/live on Beale AFB. I am very flexible. If you live on base I can go to your home on my lunch for a quick visit. Like I said I am an animal lover. I came on here after seeing how hard of a time some of our military members were having finding someone to take care of their furry friends. There are so many stressors associated within life that finding someone to genuinely care for your furry family members while away on vacation, TDY, visiting family- that should not have to be one.
About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life—from growing up with family pets to caring for my own as an adult—giving me years of hands-on experience and a deep understanding of their needs, behavior, and personalities. I’m a true dog-person and absolutely love being around them—they bring so much joy and companionship to everyday life. Sadly, I’ve had two of my own dogs pass away after living long, happy lives, but through that, I’ve gained valuable experience in providing the special care and attention older dogs often need. Caring for dogs isn’t just something I do—it’s something I genuinely love. 💞 First time using Rover? Use this link before you book for $20.00 off: https://www.rover.com/sit/rubyb72826 Furthermore, I’m a Registered Nurse (who stays home full-time with my kids now)… however, I have experience administering medications to pets and will ensure your doggie gets any needed medicine while you’re away. I love caring for humans and pets alike, and would love to walk and/or board your sweet fur-babe while you’re away. As a stay-at-home mom with a lovable Shih Tzu of my own, caring for pets is a natural part of my daily routine. I’m home throughout the day and already spend lots of time walking, playing, and giving attention to my dog—so welcoming your furry friend into our routine comes naturally and with lots of love. At our home, every fur-babe is welcomed like a member of our family. Upon arrival, they’ll be given time to explore and settle in comfortably, at their own pace. I strive to create a warm, stress-free environment filled with cozy nooks, comfy beds, and plenty of playtime in our large back yard. The neighborhood also has a large park I can walk them to for some exercise and extra sunshine. I’ll ensure they have a familiar routine and are given lots of attention, from gentle belly rubs, to snuggles on the couch. I love sending photos and updates to keep you connected! You can rest assured knowing your pet is happy, safe, and surrounded by love while you’re away. Pets can sleep in an enclosed area with blankets and a bed or in a crate, if preferred.
“If you need a pet sitter/dog walker, without hesitation I highly recommend River. River comes with experience volunteering at an animal shelter and having dogs throughout her life. From the start, River kept me informed upon her arrival, start of walk, took photos during the time she was with my dog, and return time and route. She would also spend some time with me after my dog’s walk to answer any questions I had and make sure my dog had some water and a little treat before she left. River is a very kind person who genuinely cares for dogs. I was truly impressed and grateful she was able to help me out in a crunch. It was a relief to know while I was out of pocket on a medical issue , my dog was still able to have a great time on his daily walks and “sniff-ari” with someone I am comfortable and confident with. My dog is special needs (blind and deaf) and River provided a peace of mind for me with her dog handling skills, and fun and luv on walks for my dog. I will definitely hire River the next time I need a pet sitter.”

Always following directions given by owner and doing thorough checks throughout the time I am with your 4 legged family. Staying aware of surroundings when out and about in walks.

“I couldn't be more pleased with Benjamin's exceptional dog walking services. He walked my beloved dog, Ty Chi, for a week twice a day, and the care and attention he provides are truly outstanding. From the very first walk, it was evident that Benjamin has a genuine passion for dogs. He takes the time to understand my dog's unique needs and personality, ensuring that Ty Chi always feels comfortable and happy. Benjamin's care for details is remarkable—he meticulously follows all instructions regarding Ty Chi's specific needs. He even takes the time to update me with photos and notes after each walk, which I greatly appreciate. Punctuality is another one of Benjamin's strengths. He has never missed a scheduled walk and always arrives on time, ready to give Ty Chi the exercise and attention he needs. This reliability gives me peace of mind, knowing that my dog is in capable and trustworthy hands. What truly sets Benjamin apart is his attention to detail. He notices the little things that make a big difference, such as adjusting the leash to ensure Ty Chi's comfort to make the walk even more enjoyable. His thoughtful approach shows how much he cares about the dogs he walks. I highly recommend Benjamin to anyone in need of a dog walker who is not only professional and reliable but also genuinely cares about the well-being of your pet. Ty Chi and I are incredibly grateful for Benjamin's outstanding service and look forward to many more walks together!”
About: I’m patient, reliable, and very attentive to each pet’s individual personality and routine. I understand that every animal has different comfort levels, energy needs, and habits, so I focus on creating a calm, safe environment where pets feel comfortable and cared for while their owners are away. I’m comfortable with puppies, senior pets, shy or anxious animals, feeding schedules, crate routines, medications, and detailed care instructions. I also prioritize communication and send regular updates and photos so owners always know how their pets are doing. What sets me apart most is the amount of attention and care I give each pet. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, building trust with them, and making sure they feel safe, relaxed, and loved. Pet care fits perfectly into my routine because I currently spend most of my time at home helping care for my elderly grandparents and being present with them during this stage of life. I also have caregivers who regularly come in and out when needed, which gives me flexibility in my schedule. Getting out of the house, going on walks, and spending time with animals genuinely brings me joy and balance. Caring for pets is something I truly enjoy, not just a job to me. I love being able to give animals attention, companionship, exercise, and comfort while also helping owners feel confident that their pets are in good hands. I prioritize creating a calm, safe, and comfortable environment for every pet in my care, whether I’m in a client’s home or caring for them during walks and visits. I pay close attention to routines, feeding instructions, medications, leash safety, and each pet’s individual personality and comfort level.
About: There hasn’t been a time in my life when I didn’t have an animal by my side. I have extensive, hands-on experience owning, fostering, sitting, and walking all kinds of animals. I truly understand that every pet has a unique personality and set of needs, and I pride myself on stepping in to provide seamless, consistent care—picking up exactly where you left off.

Whatever you and your animals need, I'm your girl! I work full-time providing home care for adults with mental health and developmental disabilities. Because my shifts can be non-traditional, clear communication is my absolute priority to ensure your pet's schedule is perfectly maintained. I keep my Rover calendar strictly updated with my work hours so you always know my exact availability before booking. If an 8-hour shift overlaps with your needed care times, we will discuss a seamless game plan beforehand to ensure your pet is fully looked after. Outside of my shift hours, I put focus on pet care. My background makes me highly routine-oriented, meaning I am incredibly reliable when it comes to early morning check-ins, evening walks, or overnight sitting blocks. I believe every pet deserves the perfect fit. If my work schedule ever conflicts with what your pet needs, I will be completely transparent upfront so you can find the best match for them. If we are a match, you can count on absolute reliability, consistent updates, and a dedicated sitter who treats your schedule—and your pet—with total respect! Whether I am caring for your pet in the comfort of your own home or hosting them with me, safety and open communication are my absolute top priorities.

Keeping their environment consistent prevents anxiety while you are away.
About: Since childhood, I grew up in a small village where there were many stray dogs and cats that I would always bring home. This is where my unconditional love for animals began. I have more than 10 years of experience with animals. To me, home is where your family and your little four-legged friend are. I have a big and kind heart, and I am ready to share my love not only with my own little pet but also to fill the hearts of other small dogs with my love. At the moment, I spend most of my time at home since I am not working, and I would be happy to be a nanny for your pet 24/7, 7 days a week. I have a friendly little dog at home, a miniature poodle named Chanel. She is ready to share her toys and pads, haha, and more. We also love walking and visiting the dog park near our home. We would be happy to show your pet our favorite spots during our walks together.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs and pets of all kinds for over 2 years. I started pet sitting at a young age for neighbors, friends, and family, and it quickly became something people regularly relied on me for. I have experience walking, feeding, bathing, playing with, and giving lots of love and attention to pets of all sizes and personalities. I’m very patient, dependable, and detail-oriented, and I always make sure to follow each pet’s routine and care instructions exactly as given. I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away, so I treat every pet like they’re my own. I’m comfortable caring for energetic dogs, shy or anxious pets, and senior animals who may need a little extra patience and care. I’m also comfortable following medication and special care routines if needed. I always make sure pet parents receive updates and photos so they can feel confident their pets are in good hands. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I plan my schedule around my responsibilities, which allows me to be consistent, reliable, and flexible when it comes to visits, feedings, playtime, and check-ins. Since I’m already used to caring for my own cat, Selene, daily pet care is a normal part of my life. I make sure every pet gets the time and attention they need, whether that’s scheduled drop-in visits, feeding, litter box cleaning, playtime, or just spending time keeping them company. I’m very organized and good at sticking to routines, so following each pet’s specific care instructions and schedule is never a problem for me. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I carefully follow all feeding, medication, and care instructions, and make sure litter boxes are cleaned, water is refreshed, and the home is left tidy. I make sure each animal gets the right balance of playtime, affection, and calm companionship depending on their personality. I always move at their pace, especially with shy or anxious fur babies, and never force interaction. My goal is to make every animal feel safe, comfortable, and secure in their own environment while their owner is away. I also send regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your fur baby is being well cared for.
About: I enjoy spending time with pets and take care of them. I will try to accommodate your request as much as possible to make sure the best care is provided for your pet. I spend most of the time at home, because my work is remote, so I will be able to supervise and spend time with your pet during the daytime and at night I do not have my own pets at this time. My backyard is fenced and your pet will be staying inside the house and outside whenever they want to I am working remote therefore I will be supervising your pups the majority of time. If for some reason I do not have availability it will be reflected on my calendar Your fur babies will be kept indoors, and I will provide as many potty breaks as needed because I am at home most of the time.. I have a fenced backyard for playtime and I also can take them for a walk if you would like me to.
About: One of my favorite parts of pet sitting is sending photos and updates to owners while they're away. I know how reassuring it is to see that your pet is happy, comfortable, and well cared for when you can't be there. I genuinely love working with animals of all kinds. Over the past 10 years, I've cared for cats, dogs, birds, lizards, chickens, and many other pets. Animals bring so much joy to the world, and I believe they deserve attentive, compassionate care. I'm known for being reliable, flexible, and easy to work with—whether I'm helping friends, family, or new clients I've just met. Because every pet has unique needs, I take the time to learn their routines, personalities, and preferences. I also have extensive experience administering medications and caring for pets with special requirements. My goal is to give you peace of mind while you're away, knowing your beloved companion is safe, happy, and receiving the same level of care and attention that I would give my own pets. I would love the opportunity to help care for your furry, feathered, or scaly family member. I currently work full time as an office manager in the Roseville area, but I have a flexible and consistent schedule that allows me to support pet care needs throughout the day. I’m able to step out during my lunch breaks for potty visits, check-ins, or to administer medications when needed. My routine is well-structured, which helps me reliably accommodate most scheduling requests and provide consistent care. I understand how important timely visits and dependable support are for both pets and their owners, and I do my best to ensure that each visit is handled with care and attention. I believe the best pet care starts with following the guidance provided by pet owners. They know their pets best and understand their individual needs, routines, and personalities. One thing I've learned over the years is that every animal is unique, and there is no one-size-fits-all approach to caring for them. I also place a strong emphasis on observation and communication. When I first meet a pet, I take time to learn their normal behaviors and establish a baseline for how they typically act. If I notice anything that seems unusual or out of character, I promptly reach out to the owner to keep them informed. Clear, timely communication helps ensure the best possible care and provides peace of mind for pet owners. Above all, my goal is to create a safe, trusting, and compassionate environment where pets feel comfortable, secure, and well cared for.

“Grant was very easy to communicate with and he sent pictures while we were away. It was the first time we boarded our dog so we were a little nervous, but she had a great time, and it was very easy to trust that Grant would take excellent care of her. His property is also ideal for dogs to explore, have fun, and exercise! Booking her next stay now!”
“It was our first time utilizing anyone to board our dog. we were pretty nervous but the very first day our dog was with her, she sent photos! I was not able to drop her off so I didn't get to go over the details but I wanted to and did not realize that my boyfriend had left several things out. That being said after multiple text messages she totally got a feeling for our dog and took it from there. While we were gone I received videos and photos and updates. When he picked her up he said he could tell she had a lot of fun. I was very impressed and would definitely recommend and re-book her for anytime we need someone to watch our dog. When we adopted her she was very skittish and Kelsey made her feel at ease and myself as well! Thank you so much!!!”
“Very nice experience for us. This was the first time I’ve had to board my dog and I was worried about her reaction to being alone. Samantha kindly reassured me that she would be okay. There is a large fenced area for off leash play time. Blondie was taken on long walks and was bedded down in a stall in a former stable. She had a cozy bed and a heater. When we picked her up she looked happy and comfortable. We are very satisfied with Samantha’s kind care of Blondie.”
“Jena had our sweet Rocky for over 2 weeks during the holidays. It warmed our hearts to see him having such a wonderful time with her and her family. It’s so hard to find people you can trust to care for your pet, I’m so glad we found Jena ❤️”

“Debra was wonderful. I was half was around the world & never worried about my boy. She sent lots of pictures & updates, which kept my mind at ease & allowed me to enjoy my trip. I have trouble finding people to watch my boy because Chow Chow’s have a bit of a bad reputation, even though mine is sweet as can be. She didn’t hesitate & I’m so grateful. Would use her services again & again. 🐾”
“Fantastic. Excellent. Wonderful! I'm still in awe of the dog sitting experience we just had with Linda and Dan. They are so very caring, kind and warm, and they cared for my pup like he was a member of their own family. Their expansive grounds are absolutely stunning and the winding paths which lead down to the pond made me feel like I was away at camp. I was ready to board myself there! ? Linda was so good in keeping me updated with photos of my pup playing and running around. He always looked like he was having a good time and it didn't surprise me when I went to pick him up and he actually didn't want to leave. Thank you, Linda and Dan, for taking such great care of my fur baby. We look forward to seeing you again hopefully one day.”

“Whitney was great with our two big dogs, including our old guy who doesn’t hear or see well. She was super easy to work with and communicated easily. We would definitely board with her again!”

“All I can say is Wow! Everything was perfect with Sylvia and her pup Finn! The dogs got along so well and the yard is shaded and green. I got pictures during the stay and my dog, Deschutes was stretched out on the carpet with a face of contentment. Just what a dog owner wants to see!”
“Tale’A was great! I would give her 10 stars if I could. She explained and showed me everything about what my dog’s stay would look like. My dog was immediately comfortable with her and her house. Her dog was the perfect match for my dog. I think my dog has a new bff. The backyard is a dream for an active dog. There was plenty of room both inside and out for my dog to roam around and sniff. She made sure he was comfortable and well taken care of. I can’t recommend her enough. My dog had a great time. When I picked him up he was very happy and relaxed. He shows his stress and there was none just a very happy and tired dog from all the playing he did. He snored the whole way on our long drive home. I will definitely use Tale’A when we are back in the area. Thanks for taking such good care of my boy. If you are reading reviews looking for the best place to leave your pet Tale’A is the one you’re looking for. She’s the best.”
“Gregory was an amazing sitter. He went above and beyond to make sure Scout was not only safe, but happy. He took her on walks and to visit his mom. She got to make new doggy friends and sleep on his couch. We will definitely be using him again in the future.”
