“Derek and Leslie were awesome with my Lucy! They sent daily updates and pictures and made sure that she was comfortable with the family. They only had their own dog, which was nice that it wasn't a "dog hotel". I will be contacting them again in the near future.”
“Our border collie had a great stay while we were camping in the Redwoods National Park and our return was delayed by a day. Amy and Justin were happy to extend our pups stay! Thanks you so much!”
“Sixuan was incredibly attentive, following all of my feeding instructions to the letter, taking Andi on regular walks, and ensuring she had her potty breaks every three hours or so. Coming home to find Andi looking so happy relaxed and healthy gave me total peace of mind. She sent regular pictures with updates about her welfare . I gladly give Sixuan 5 stars for her excellent service and cannot recommend Sixuan highly enough! She did an absolutely wonderful job looking after my fur-baby!”
“My little dachshund had been with the same dog sitter for 11 years. Adrienne was great with her. She was patient giving Bailee time to settle in. She provided pics to share with us. Thank you”

“Our dogs were so well cared for & had such a great time for their 2-night stay with Galady. The text messages and photos she sent were appreciated! Highly recommend and so grateful we found a quality, caring, local dogsitter nearby.”
“What an amazing job she did. She kept me updated with pictures and text messages. Captain my dog looked super happy, and was very well taken care of. I definitely recommend.”
“Nancy took amazing care of my senior dog Abbey for a week while we were out of town. She took her on frequent walks, and gave her lots of attention. We got photo and video updates of how Abbey was doing. We felt like Abbey was in great hands while we were gone. Would definitely have Nancy take care of our dog again.”
“Erin was the best! She took great care of our dog. She was always super responsive and gave daily updates with pictures. Would for sure let her watch our dog again!”

“I'm glad I found Michael and Patricia. Josie felt at ease with them right away so it made me feel good about leaving her with them. They are a wonderful couple who really care about dogs. I rarely go out of town, but if I ever need a sitter for Josie in the future, they'd be the ones I'd book a stay with.”
“Gustav had such a great time with Greg. So much so that he climbed back into his truck and didn’t want to leave! 😅. Greg sent a lot of photos and updates through the day. He’s got a nice backyard for the pups to hang out in and takes them for long walks. Will definitely be bringing Gus back for another stay.”

“Malarie was awesome. She came out of her shell at to get the details about my pets care.

I would definitely hire her again.”

About: I’ve been a trusted pet sitter for family + friends for 7+ years. I have also taken care of my family dog for all my teen years. I have extensive experience taking care of puppies, large energetic dogs, as well my brother’s reactive rescue dog. I genuinely love all pets! I also helped my roommate to raise her kitten, whom i now consider like my own. It would be a pleasure to watch your pet :) I am currently working M-Thurs from 8 AM-3pm, and Fridays 7-12:30 pm. Please reach out and I should be available to work around schedules. I can always make time for a pet in need! :) I am sadly not able to watch pet’s in my own home due to pet policy. But, I can assure you I will be very vigilant while watching your pet! I will make sure they are watched at all times and not in danger.
About: I’ve been a proud pet parent and sitter for over 20 years, and I know how important it is to have someone you can trust with your furry family. I’ve cared for dogs of all breeds and sizes, cats with every personality, and even senior pets who need a little extra love. I treat every pet like my own; whether that means long walks, playtime, cuddles, or keeping routines just right. I’m reliable, attentive, and always happy to send photo updates so you know your pets are safe and happy while you’re away. For me, pet sitting isn’t just a job, it’s what I love. 🐾 I have a very flexible schedule! I am pretty much always home, playing with my cat or tending my garden. I go to school online so that can be done from any location with wifi. I have plenty of free time to make sure your fury friends needs are met! I love and appreciate a detailed list of your pets wants and needs so as their routine isn’t disturbed in your absence. My calm yet assertive style coupled with my fun and energetic personality help me to ensure every pet I encounter is not only safe but trusts me enough to let their guard down and play!
“Jenelle was so wonderful taking care of our dog while we were away. She is incredibly kind and very responsible. I had great piece of mind knowing she was their for our dog!”
“Bryana did a great job with our two cats. They were just like when we left lazy and wondering why we were here :) She did a great job updating us on the cats. If we ever go on vacation again we will definitely schedule her again.”
About: Hello! Im Joana. I’ve been around animals all my life. My first pet was a rescue dog named Marley who was 8 years old. Since then I have always wanted to rescue and finally got to rescue my own dog 2 years ago. She is now 4 years old and is an Australian shepherd named Maple. I do have experience with puppies, senior dogs, and rescue dogs. I currently work full time in healthcare and work night shifts. I have my scheduled shifts out months in advance, which makes scheduling easier for you and me. I can work with the random crazy hours, that is something I am used to. I live in an apartment with my dog. It is completely gated. I am willing to sit in the clients home as well and offer drop in visits.

Prices are estimates per day for 1 dog. Pricing may vary based on your search and includes a booking fee of 11%.
“Derek and Leslie clearly love dogs and were patient with Ruby, who was a bit overwhelmed and grouchy when the other dogs approached her. Derek stayed in the backyard with Ruby and played on the pool with her, which is her favorite. Would definitely recommend for your more social dogs.”
“Diann was great!! Diego and Rico enjoyed their extended stay with Diann. She was great at communicating, sending pictures, and just overall keeping us updated on our pups. You can just tell they really enjoyed the time in the yard running around and interacting with the other dogs. If you are looking for a great sitter, look no further than Diann!”
About: Animals have been part of my life since I was an early adult, and caring and connecting with them comes naturally. As a wellness coach, husband and father of two, I’m big on structure, patience, and creating a calm, safe inviting environment for every dog I work with. I’m active outdoors, hiking, walking trails, and exploring around in the neighborhood, so your dog will get plenty of movement and attention. I will always adapt movement and attention needs to your liking. I’ve handled everything from high-energy pups to gentle senior dogs, and I’m confident with feeding routines, medication reminders, crate-training basics, and helping anxious dogs feel secure. I treat every pet like my own and keep owners updated with photos, check-ins, and clear communication so you always know your dog is in good hands. Whether your dog needs long walks, overnight care, or a dependable companion while you’re away, I bring consistency, kindness, and professional-level responsibility to every stay. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I work from home and set my own schedule. I’m already outdoors often, walking, working on the yard, biking, or taking my own dog out around the neighborhood or on the trails, so adding your pup into my day is a seamless fit. I’m available for boarding service either at my home or yours for 2-4 days during the week and weekend boarding requests as well. Your dog will always get consistent attention, movement, and care, never rushed or squeezed into a busy schedule. I provide a calm, structured environment that helps dogs feel comfortable the moment they arrive. My home in Fair Oaks has a large, fenced yard with plenty of safe space to explore. Outdoor time is always supervised, gates stay secured, and I keep clear routines for feeding, play, and rest so dogs settle in smoothly. We have two friendly dogs of our own, a Papillon and a Min Pin/Jack Russell mix, who enjoy having new companions around. They’re social, well-behaved, and help create an easygoing atmosphere for visiting pups. If a dog prefers their own space, I can separate areas to make sure everyone feels relaxed. For boarding in my home, I do require that dogs are potty trained. If you’re still working on potty training, I’m more than happy to support that process in your home. I’m also comfortable with crate routines, senior care, medication reminders, and maintaining whatever structure your dog is used to. As a father and longtime pet owner, safety and communication are top priorities, I send photo updates and check-ins so you always feel connected while you’re away.
“Alexis and her family were amazing! Came in nervous to drop off our new puppy but they seem like genuine kind people who made us feel at ease. Our puppy seemed like she had lots of love and fun around her.”
“Seriously the best place if you are looking for a dog sitter. My anxious dog hates being away from me but she has found a second home here. I drop her off knowing she will be well cared for, safe, and happy. So grateful to have finally found a family who understands her!”
“I booked Alora (Stacy) for doggy day care for my two dogs while I was out of town. Our meet and greet prior to booking went very well! I could easily tell how much Alora cared about taking care of animals. My dogs liked her and her dogs as well. Alora was accommodating, communicative and so kind! Due to the departure and return flight times for my trip, I needed a very early morning drop off and late night pick up. Alora was fine with this and even let me drop off a little early so I had time to get to the airport without being in a rush. Despite the length of my dogs' stay, she kept her rates as they were shown prior to my booking. She also sent multiple text updates as well as videos of my dogs. I felt confident that my dogs were in good hands while I was away! When I picked up my dogs, I could tell they had a great day and were both asleep shortly after I got them home. I would definitely recommend and book with Alora again!”
“Ariana is very friendly and takes great care of my dog. I can tell that she is a "dog" person and that she knows what she is doing and really cares. It is a bonus that she does not over-charge for her services and offers the convenient pick up and drop off services. She takes several pictures and keeps me updated, which I appreciate.”
“We are so happy that we found Nanci. She is so nice and provided a wonderful day for our pup. She sent pictures and videos throughout his stay so we could see how he was enjoying his day.”
“Oreo had such a wonderful time with Barbara! 🐶❤️ She took great care of him and made sure he had a great walk and plenty of playtime. Her dog was super friendly, and Oreo had so much fun playing with her. It was so nice knowing he was in such a caring and loving environment. I really appreciate how well she took care of Oreo and would definitely recommend Barbara. We’d be happy to have Oreo stay with her again”
About: With a decade of dog care experience, I can ensure a loving, exciting & healthy experience for however long you need your pets cared for! I’ve looked after a wide variety of breeds and have become accustomed to many dogs’ different quirks and habits, and have learned through my experience at different rescue organizations, how to manage them. I’ve volunteered at several dog rescue organizations across the Bay Area and have fostered dogs, myself. I’m passionate about animal welfare, understand how to administer medication to dogs and will be very gentle and loving with your pets, I know they’re special to each of you and will treat them as my own while watching them! I am very conscious of reinstating habits that you’d like to teach your dog, while also ensuring that they feel safe and loved while under my care. I’m located near lots of local parks and am happy to give your dog outside playtime, park walks and have a fenced backyard for your pups to run around when they’re not on walks. Please note that I do have a sweet, friendly puppy of my own in my house hold, so if you are interested in my services, let’s set up a meet and greet to make sure our pets get along :) Please check out my schedule below for more info on week day times and boarding requests! :) I work in office early in the mornings most days and am off early to be able to take care of your pups in the evening & on weekends! I work remote on Tuesdays, so I can take care of your pups for a work day boarding or over the weekend. Feel free to reach out if a date isn’t available and I can see if I can move some things around! • Dog walking: Mon, Wed, Thurs: only available for afternoon availability (4 PM - 10 PM), Tues - all day, Friday - early morning and afternoon. • Boarding: I can only take in boarding requests starting 3pm on Thursday since I work in the office Mon, Wed, Thurs. I have a house with a courtyard for your pups to run around! I have cared for multiple family member’s dogs in my house and they’ve loved the area to lounge in the sun! I have lots of room inside the house for their dog beds, plenty of kitchen space for their bowls and a basket for toys.
“Divya was such a great sitter and took amazing care of my dog! She was super accommodating with my work schedule and even with my delayed pickup. She kept me updated with regular messages and photos. Bodhi had such a great time with her dog, and it was clear he was happy and well taken care of. I’ll definitely be dropping him off with her again soon! 🐾❤️”
“We dropped off our dog at Deborah's house for dog sitting. Our dog really likes Deborah. She is kind and patient and you can tell she really likes animals. We were updated regularly on how our dog was doing with messages and pictures. It made us feel like she was in good hands. We will definitely book Deborah for more sitting soon!”
About: Hello there! My name is Brenda and I am new to the Greater Sacramento area. Before moving to Rancho Cordova I volunteered at the Inland Valley Humane Society and SPCA. I've always been an animal lover and have experience caring for both dogs and cats, including my own pets and helping care for family and friends' pets. I'm comfortable with different personalities and understand that every pet has their own routine, preferences, and quirks. I'm naturally very patient and attentive with animals, and I genuinely enjoy to know their personalities. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers to relax and cuddle, I'm happy to meet them where they're at and make sure they feel comfortable and cared for while you're away. My schedule is very flexible right now, so I have plenty of availability throughout the week for walks, drop-ins, or boarding — mornings, afternoons, and evenings. I may eventually pick up part-time work, but even then I’d still have consistent time set aside for pet care. There’s also a park right across the street from my apartment, so daily walks and playtime are easy to build into the routine. I enjoy having a reason to get outside, stay active, and spend time with animals, so walks and drop-in visits fit really naturally into my day. I am also able to plan my schedule around your pet's routine and make sure they get the attention and care they need rather than feeling like they're just being checked off my list. Your pets safety and comfort are my biggest priorities. I always want pets to feel secure and comfortable in their environment. I live in an apartment with two cats of my own so I don’t currently have dogs at home — just a calm, clean space I keep consistent for any pet staying with me. My cats are used to visitors and generally easygoing, but I’m happy to talk through introductions ahead of time if that matters for your pet. There’s a park directly across the street, which makes it easy to get dogs outside for exercise multiple times a day. I'm respectful of your home, your pet's normal routine. I'll make sure doors and gates are secure, follow feeding and medication instructions when needed, and pay attention to anything that seems unusual with your pet. Most importantly, I know that trusting someone with your pet is a big deal, so I'll treat them with the same patience and care I could want for my own.
About: Hi! My name is Kimya, and animals have always been a huge part of my life. I volunteer at shelters and I have owned and cared for dogs my entire life, from small to large breeds as well as bully breeds. I understand firsthand the responsibility, patience, and consistency that goes into providing excellent care. In addition to caring for my own pets, my experience consists of volunteering at a local animal shelter, where I’ve worked with dogs of different sizes, ages, temperaments, and backgrounds. This experience has helped me become comfortable handling everything from energetic puppies to shy, nervous, or misunderstood dogs that need a little extra patience and structure. Over the years, I have also gained experience caring for dogs with medical and behavioral needs. While I am not a veterinarian, I am attentive and knowledgeable when it comes to monitoring changes in appetite, energy level, mobility, skin and coat condition, digestive health, and overall well-being. I understand how important it is to notice when something isn’t quite right and communicate with owners promptly. I believe every pet is an individual, and I take the time to learn their routine, personality, and needs. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playtime, sticking to a familiar schedule, or simply having company while you’re away, my goal is to help them feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I treat every animal in my care as if they were my own and understand the trust that comes with leaving a pet with someone else. You can expect dependable care, regular updates, and the peace of mind that your pet is in capable hands. I am available for walks, drop-ins, house sitting, and boarding depending on the dates needed. I prioritize maintaining your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible and will provide updates and photos throughout their stay. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, including large breeds, puppies, seniors, and dogs with special behavioral or medical considerations. I carefully follow feeding instructions, medication schedules, exercise requirements, and any household rules you have in place. I have a fenced yard and can separate dogs if needed to ensure everyone remains safe and comfortable. I take the time to learn each pet’s personality, triggers, and routine so I can provide individualized care.
“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!”
“Andrea was such a lifesaver! Scheduling was easy and she was flexible with drop-off/pick-up. The moment we met, I felt confident our pup was going to be loved and cared for by Andrea and her family. She sent pictures and updates, and even let our fur baby sleep on her bed. So happy and thankful for our experience.”
“Debraj was great! She was so nice and her 2 dogs were so fun. My dog had a great time and came home exhausted after a super fun play date. She even took them all to the dog park. Highly recommend her!”

“Ayla has been walking our dog for a month now and she has been fantastic! She is great at communicating what is going on and responds very quickly. Our dog has been so much happier since she started walking him. She’s exactly what we were looking for.”
“My dog has only been walked by me and I wasn't sure how he'd do being walked by someone else. He immediately was comfortable with Michael. My dog is a large mastiff and is very strong. Michael has good knowledge about dog training and behavior and is great at making sure my dog listens and is well behaved on his walks.”
“Brooklyn has been walking Maggie for a week now and Maggie loves Brooklyn! Brooklyn is prompt to respond to requests and easy to communicate with. Maggie will be 14 this year and she requires accommodations and special handling. Brooklyn has demonstrated compassion and understanding with my detailed instructions. She takes care to pay attention to Maggie's energy and gait and provides updates on her activities. Brooklyn is trustworthy and I feel comfortable with giving her access to my home when I'm away. Thank you Brooklyn!”
About: Hi! I have always loved animals, growing up with many cats, dogs, chickens, fish, birds, etc. Right now I have a cat, Luna, who we love dearly! We are not quite ready to fully pause travel and commit full time to a dog at home, so I am looking forward to enjoying some dog time via Rover! I am available all day on weekends, and after 5:15pm on week days. My Sat/Sun availability will vary based on my schedule, but I would love to take walks on my open weekends! I plan to ask pet preferences and communicate with the owner prior to our first walk. I am in tune with what a dog’s mood and what they may be communicating during our walk. I hope they enjoy the walk and my company during our time together.
About: As someone who grew up with dogs, both small and large, I've learned what it takes to make sure the puppies are well cared for, between giving them the right food, making sure they go on walks, and grooming. Our pets are our best friends and so we should take the greatest care of them, and I'm willing to do that for all animals alike. I'm currently a part time worker both on weekends and weekdays and have lots of time to dedicate to taking care of pets. The only time I would not be able to offer my services is dueing weekends. In my home, I have a fenced yard to allow for our big huskies to have space to play and run, offering them toys that I know would keep them entertained. I also make sure to clean my dogs and ensure they eat healthily.
“Barbara has a very Calm disposition and is very good with Mowgli. He enjoyed his walk with her and seems calm when around her. She is very prompt and respectful. And communicates well. We will be definitely asking her to take our Mowgli for a walk again. Thanks Barbara!!”
“Riley has been such a amazing help while I was recovering from an injury that prevented me from being able to take my dog on a walk. He was very careful of her limitstions of being dog reactive and made me feel comfortable that she was in good hands!”
“Brandie was great with my dog. She came over twice to become aquanted with him beforehand and then took great care of him during her visit. Her communication was too notch and my dog was very happy with her.”
About: Hello! My name is Laura and I'm 38 years old. I grew up in the country and my mother had a dog grooming studio in our house. I have always loved animals and grew up with dogs, cats, birds, ducks and horses. As an adult, I have worked at animal shelters and for private rescues. I have fostered dogs in my own home, many of whom were neglected and needed a sensitive touch. I currently have 3 rescue dogs of my own, one of whom has kidney disease. I give medication and IV fluids three times a week for her at home. I am available for dog walks/hikes, pet sitting and am comfortable with a wide range of breeds. I am reliable, caring and will treat your pet like they are a member of my own family. I currently work nights, part-time in the restaurant industry which gives me plenty of free time during the day to care for your furry family member(s)! I tailor each experience to match your pets needs. I am up for anything including, long walk, adventurous hikes, leisurely strolls, playing in the back yard, snuggling on the couch and more. I am happy to spend whatever time and energy your fur baby needs!
About: My wife and I have been passionate about dogs for over 36 years. We've volunteered at the SPCA for the last 8 years, which is truly the highlight of our week. In that time, we've rescued over 50 dogs off the streets, reuniting them with their owners or finding them loving forever homes. We've also fostered 20 dogs, both long and short-term, and raised three wonderful Weimaraner's who all lived to be over 14. As they say, if you can raise a Weimaraner, you can care for any dog! After recently retiring, I’m now available 24/7 to take care of your pups and their needs. While my wife continues to work full-time, she'll still be involved every step of the way to ensure your furry friends are pampered and loved. We’re updating our profile after three fantastic years as Rover sitters because we absolutely love what we do! We only take care of one client's dogs at a time and have no pets of our own, so your dog will get 100% of our attention. We keep the same routines your dog is accustomed to at home—whether that means sleeping on beds or couches, special diets, or anything else they need. Our home features a large, fenced, grassy backyard and access to the best walking trails to the river in the Sacramento area. We’d love to welcome your furry friend into our home and make sure they feel just as comfortable here as they do at yours. I'm retired and your puppies care will be my full time job. My wife will also be assisting. We will only one family at time to create a stress-free environment for you Dog(s) Big fenced yard and close to walking trails with great sights and smells. Large amount of chew toys and sleeping beds to create all the comforts of home.
About: I have taken care of pets for the past 5 years, including owning my personal pets. I can follow routines and offer play time. I love animals, and will love to take care of your best friend! Weekdays, I am available after 2pm. If boarding accommodations are needed, the. I can adjust my schedule to fit your pet needs. Weekends work great! I can easily crate your pets and follow their routines. I can offer treats and food when needed. I can also take them on dog walks as well.
About: I've had dogs and cats my entire life. Growing up on a farm in Oregon my family bred, and I showed, Newfoundlands so my experience with pets is pretty vast. I'm newly retired from my job as a magazine publisher, I have a super flexible schedule. I love animals and have often needed pet sitters so I know it can be a challenge to find someone trustworthy. Since I coached (Track) for 30+ years I've been background checked, fingerprinted and bonded by several institutions including USATF and the Folsom-Cordova School District. I am First Aid and Safe Sport compliant. I prefer to watch pets at a client's Folsom (or nearby) home as I have two dogs of my own to care for. If a dog is great with other dogs, they may be welcome to come to my house; I have a fully fenced backyard and would be present 100% of the time.
About: I've been pet sitting since the fifth grade. I've sat cats and dogs and I have experience pet sitting, house sitting, and dog walking. I've always had a passion for animals so this is a great side gig for me. I am a substitute teacher and I have two reptiles at home, so I'm currently only accepting jobs in my immediate area to cut down on travel time. I only come to your home to care for your pets, and I try to make sure they feel happy and comfortable and respecting your home and rules for your pet.
“Derek was amazing with my spastic 1 yr old Golden Retriever! She always came back worked out and tired and a huge smile on her face. Thank you for taking such great care of my Gemma!”

I gladly give Sixuan 5 stars for her excellent service and cannot recommend Sixuan highly enough! She did an absolutely wonderful job looking after my fur-baby!”

“Highly recommend Kendra! She took care of our little pug like she was her own. Kendra made sure our playful pug got her dose of activities with a walk and backyard fun, along with relaxation time.”
“Our dogs were so well cared for & had such a great time for their 2-night stay with Galady. The text messages and photos she sent were appreciated! Highly recommend and so grateful we found a quality, caring, local dogsitter nearby.”
“What an amazing job she did. She kept me updated with pictures and text messages. Captain my dog looked super happy, and was very well taken care of. I definitely recommend.”
“Nancy took amazing care of my senior dog Abbey for a week while we were out of town. She took her on frequent walks, and gave her lots of attention. We got photo and video updates of how Abbey was doing. We felt like Abbey was in great hands while we were gone. Would definitely have Nancy take care of our dog again.”
“Erin was the best! She took great care of our dog. She was always super responsive and gave daily updates with pictures. Would for sure let her watch our dog again!”
“Gustav had such a great time with Greg. So much so that he climbed back into his truck and didn’t want to leave! 😅. Greg sent a lot of photos and updates through the day. He’s got a nice backyard for the pups to hang out in and takes them for long walks. Will definitely be bringing Gus back for another stay.”
“Nadezhda (Nadia) and Alex are an awesome couple who welcomed Kenta as the newest member of their family. Kenta was loved, cared for, and pampered by the entire family. Alex and Nadia shared great pics and videos daily letting us see how content our big boy was with them. I recommend them highly.”
“The best dog sitters! Our dog is very shy with people and he warmed up to Rai and Debraj so quickly. They sent us photos and videos daily so we knew he was happy and doing well. We couldn’t recommend them enough!”
“Julia is wonderful. Caring and intuitive with our small dog. And most importantly, our pup really enjoys her stay. So nice to not worry when we go out of town without our dog.”
“Johnna was amazing! She was super communicative throughout Milo’s stay, sending me regular updates and photos that gave me total peace of mind. Milo instantly felt comfortable with her, and it was clear how much care and attention she gave him. I would recommend Johnna to anyone!”
About: We had our own dog that we cared for from puppyhood, so we’re very comfortable with everyday dog care. We have a soft spot for smaller pups and love giving them lots of attention, cuddles, and love. We treat every pup staying with us like one of our own. We’re able to plan our schedules around the pups we’re caring for and make sure they get plenty of attention, walks, playtime, and company. With two of us caring for them, they’ll have plenty of company and love throughout their stay. We live in a new, dog-friendly apartment with dedicated areas for pups to walk and play. We make sure every dog feels safe, comfortable, and gets plenty of attention while staying with us. We always follow their usual routine and any instructions to help them feel right at home.
“Ann B was amazing with my dog and was able to get him to do things that I haven't been able to do. He is usually a very anxious dog but she was able to provide a calm and reassuring environment for him that made him feel right at home.”
“Once again Pranavi did a great job watching and caring for our two little guys. We appreciate the daily pics and video that she sent. We will definitely keep using her to care for a boys.”
“Debbie is the best!! We recently lost our long time dog sitter and were anxious about leaving our senior dog with GI issues and anxiety with someone new while we left town for a few days with limited cell service. Lila didn’t even want to come home when we picked her up!! She was very comfortable with Lila’s needs, sent us updates and was flexible on pickup time. I’ve used a lot of dog sitters in my time and she is one of the best!! So competent, communicative and a true animal lover. Thank you Debbie!!”
