About: I’ve lived with pets my whole life, and I am a very attentive and patient care giver. Any pet staying with me will get lots of attention and love. I will ensure timely feedings, plenty of fresh water, and lots of safety and love. I am a stay at home mom, and my oldest is in full time kindergarten, so I’ll have lots of time to care for your pet, 7 days a week. I have a recently remodeled fenced in back yard, that backs up to a beautiful, shaded nature walk on the edge of a wetlands nature preserve. Any walks we go on will have plenty of safe exploring for your pet. I have two male siamese cats of my own at home who are generally pretty tolerant of other animals. I also have two young children, ages 5 and 3 so as long as your pets are comfortable and good around kids we would love to love on your fur babies!
“Tracy was amazing with Holly, and Holly came back home so happy after her visit there. Tracy gave Holly her meds as needed, lots of attention and pets. I would definitely leave Holly with her again.”
“Cynthia was great with Benji! She communicated well, sent pictures and updates throughout the day, and was very professional and kind. I felt confident that Benji was in good hands. I definitely recommend her and would book with her again!”
“Johnna and her family were wonderful with my Kai. He seemed very happy and well taken care of during the week long boarding stay. She was great about providing photos and updates daily, and taking him on little adventures.”
“Jenna was really great. Sent lots of pictures. Listened to instructions as Athena can be picky. She even bought her food when I did not pack enough. Jenna is a great find. Thank you for taking care of her!”
“Nancy was an outstanding dog sitter for Zoey! From the moment I booked with her, she was incredibly communicative and made the entire process easy and stress free. Throughout Zoey’s stay, Nancy sent frequent updates, photos, and messages so I always knew how she was doing. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing Zoey was in such caring and capable hands. I could tell Nancy genuinely cared about her and treated her like one her own. I would absolutely book with Nancy again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive, and compassionate dog sitter.”
“Tracey M. Did a good job with my 2 dogs. She took care of them as her own. She even gave my Misty her heart medication. If she’ll be available the coming dates I need a sitter, I will surely get her again but unfortunately she has her own out of town schedule on the days I needed. Thank you so much Tracey.”
“Nicole was very quick to respond and she even did a short notice stay for my puppy liberty. Her and her family treated my little girl like theirs and spoiled her even more than I do. I got updates on how she was and the cutest pics of liberty and her daughter playing. I for sure will use her again and she will be my go to for puppy sitter.”
“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!”
“Serena took exceptional care of Huxley during our weekend away, with amazing communication. Huxley has his quirks and can be anxious; Serena took note of all of this and took extra care of him. She provided updates regularly, was super responsive and Huxley had a weekend of fun and care when we left him. Thanks!”
“WE LOVE TAMMY and zuko does too! We’ve finally found a sitter that we feel comfortable leaving zuko with! Thanks Tammy, Athena and Medusa! You and your fur babies are the best 😊”
About: Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Over the years, I've cared for my own dogs as well as those belonging to friends, family members, and rescue organizations. I am currently volunteering as a transport driver for NorCal Boxer Rescue and Gettin' Home Transport, giving me experience with dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. From energetic puppies to gentle giants like St. Bernards, I've worked with a wide variety of dogs and understand that each one has unique needs, routines, and temperaments. My goal is always to make every dog feel safe, comfortable, loved, and right at home while they're in my care. I am retired after 42 years with the federal government. I spend most of my time at home with my retired husband, allowing me to provide plenty of supervision, companionship, and attention throughout the day. Aside from occasional errands, I’m available to ensure your dog(s) receives consistent care and affection. Our home is designed with dogs' comfort in mind. We have a large, grassy, fully fenced backyard and a dog door that allows dogs to come and go freely at their own pace. In addition, I regularly take dogs outside for potty breaks throughout their stay. Dogs are treated like family here and are welcome on the furniture and beds. We provide pet stairs to help them safely access couches and beds, making them feel as comfortable as they would in their own home. Daily walks are offered during the cooler parts of the day, typically in the early morning and again in the late afternoon or evening. Providing a safe, secure, and loving environment is my top priority. Our large, fenced backyard offers plenty of space for exercise, play, and relaxation. We also share our home with two friendly, long-haired, five-year-old Dachshunds who enjoy the company of visiting dogs. We strive to maintain a calm, welcoming atmosphere where dogs can settle in comfortably and enjoy their stay. We provide extra dog beds for guests, and if your dog prefers or requires a crate, you're welcome to bring your own. Whether your dog enjoys playtime, cuddling on the couch, relaxing in the yard, or simply being around caring people, they'll receive personalized attention and plenty of love while you're away.
“Doh is excellent with the pups. She’s patient and kind and provided many pics and updates throughout my vacation. My dog seemed to really like her and my family did as well! Highly recommend!”
“Laura took such good care of my cat Shiny and made all the accommodations she needed. She even checked in and sent me a couple updates with photos. Thank you Laura for making my vacation worry free!”
“We’ve used Antoinette twice already to watch our puppy. She does a really good job! She communicates well, sends updates throughout the day, is lenient with the drop off and pick up times. She always keeps him entertained with play time and walks. We will definitely keep having her watch our little pup!”
“Sylvia was great. She was very responsive and easy to communicate with. She has a lovely home and a very sweet dog and her dog and ours got along great. A nice backyard for them to romp around in, and a lot of attentive care. We felt great about his stay with Sylvia. Would definitely take advantage of her hosting again. Highly recommended.”
“Veronica took great care of my senior dog!! She was able to administer all of her medications. Sent me photos and put me at ease letting me know that my dog was doing good.”
“Julie was great with Blue. He had a great time and I was sent updates and pictures while I was gone which reassured me he was in great hands. Thank you and Blue will definitely be back again.”
“Juneau had a blast with Lety and Mason. I appreciated the frequent photos and videos updating me on all of Juneau’s adventures throughout the weekend. I wouldn’t hesitate to have her watch Juneau again!”

“Fatima is amazing. She took care of our kitty while we were gone for a week and was great about communicating and sending all kinds of pictures and information each time she came. She is so thoughtful and clearly loves animals. Highly recommend.”
“Gabriela was responsible and had great communication! My cat is old, feral and unfriendly. She not only sent photos every day, but in addition she posted a narrative about Woody and what she was seeing while at my house. She questioned a situation she experienced one morning and called me to discuss, which was the correct thing to do. I trust Gabriela; her commitment to providing care for a pet is much appreciated. I highly recommend her and would definitely use her again.”
“Brandy was phenomenal. She took great care of our fur babies. She sent us daily updates with photos. Knowing our home and pets were being so well cared for allowed us to throughly enjoy our vacation. I will definitely book again with Brandy 😁”
“Absolutely top notch doggie service. Jasmine and her son ensured that my dog was safe and comfortable, which made me feel the same. They checked in and sent pictures daily. Couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. I highly recommend her and her son. Love, love, love. 💯❤️”
About: I’ve always loved cats and took my first one in over 10 years ago. He adopted me and turned me into a full-blown cat lady. And then we decided he needed a buddy and we adopted a kitten. We’ve had both Siamese boys for 10 years now and I’ve grown to love cats so much.
“I can’t recommend Dylan enough! He took such wonderful care of all three of my babies while I was out. He was attentive, reliable, and clearly love animals. I received regular updates and photos, which gave me total peace of mind. My pets were happy, healthy, and clearly well-loved. I’ll definitely be using him on repete.”
“We had a need of an emergency change in sitters while we were out of town (super stressful!) and Kevin was able to save the day! Amazing communication, great updates and photos, and truly went above and beyond in caring for our pup with walks and cuddles. Very thankful for the care and service provided by Kevin!”
“Emily was a great sitter! Our cat loved her. She took special care to learn all about him. She took note of how he likes to play, what food he likes, and even the little things that we do for him when we are home. We are looking forward to hiring her again!”

“For about 6 days, Cami came by and took care of Milo, my sweet boy who is all love and tenderness. Cami did a great job making sure he was well fed while also taking care of the house. She was wonderful with modifying instructions and showing initiative. I would book her again.”
“Absolutely amazing! Being my first experience I was a little nervous but, immediately felt comfortable when I saw the way my dogs were around her. Pics and updates were great allowing me to feel free to enjoy my trip. 100% would recommend and do this again..”

About: I've had dogs in my home since I was 10, ranging from newborns to ten years old, so I do have enough experience in walking, bathing, giving them medicine if they request. Until December 16, I am available from Thursday to Sunday, anytime. Currently, I do walk two dogs every day around noon. I have helped train one of these two dogs to obey commands after they have attended obedience school, and given them antibiotics as prescribed. I have stayed at the owner's home for the weekend while they were on vacation, so I took care of these dogs and carefully followed the owner's instructions. I can't whistle, unfortunately so if your dog listens to whistles, that dog may not be the one for me. I’m currently free for the summer! I go on runs twice a week, I love getting my steps in and I enjoy spending time with furry friends! I currently live in a cozy cottage in a gated apartment complex with my boyfriend. It also has an area for dogs, both big and small

“Nicole was and is very accommodating and genuinely comes off as an animal lover which was very wonderful to find. It’s not easy leaving your fur babies with strangers but she went out of her way to make mine feel welcome and make sure that she didn’t overwhelm him. I fully plan on using her services again and would wholeheartedly recommend her if any of you are interested in a good dog sitter.”
“Nicole was very accommodating for Pumpkin's stay. Was able to give meds, and kept Pumpkin calm after her surgery. Also sent lots of pics. Will definitely be booking with her again.”

About: I have had and loved animals since I was a kid, and even more so as a responsible adult. We have a loud, rambunctious 3 year old hound/border collie mix in our home who loves other dogs and loves to play. (Hounds tend to be the most mouthy breed, and Cooper doesnt disappoint). Hes quite submissive, so he pairs well with most pups. We frequent the dog park, so we have many puppy friend. Consistency is so important for the behavior and health of your dog, so I will happily accommodate your pooches needs to their benefit. I've learned with the way our guests tend to happily (and safely) play with Cooper, that while in my care sometimes there isn't enough energy left for our routine walks. If walks are part of a training regime, please let me know so I can ensure the walks still take place. I do require a meet and greet prior to every booking. This ensures there is a good fit in personalities of pups and myself as your pup's caregiver. I apologize, but because I work from home, I cannot take in habitual barkers, or dogs who are not crate trained. If you have read this far and you use Instagram, please find me watchmywags.sacramento. I work from home, and have a flexible schedule, so no worries about separation anxiety, and rest assured your furry friend will stay plenty active freely roaming our home and property. I also have 3 lovely children who enjoy the company of animals. I'm happy to help out with evening walks. Let me know if there's a specific route you're using for training purposes. I will follow your lead. If theyre coming to my home to play, I have a large fenced yard with room to run. A designated crate area for sleep. I accompany doggos while they run about outside whether for pee, poop or play. I work from home, so your pup is welcome to hang with me and Coop while I work. Cooper is happy to keep your guy entertained under my supervision. Constant video monitoring in community areas as well, so safety is utmost importance. If we are visiting your home, please leave clear written instructions. I will respect your wishes as your pet companion.

About: 🐾 My Pet Care Experience I’ve had a dog by my side for my entire life until recently, so caring for dogs has always been a natural and important part of my life. Over the years, I’ve experienced the day-to-day responsibilities that come with being a dog owner—from feeding and walks to playtime, exercise, grooming, medications, and simply recognizing when a dog needs some extra attention or reassurance. Having dogs for so many years has taught me that every dog has their own personality, habits, and needs. Some are energetic and ready to play, while others are happiest getting some attention and curling up nearby. I’m comfortable adapting to each dog and following the routine their family has established. Most importantly, I understand that leaving your dog with someone else requires trust. I will treat your dog with the same patience, kindness, and care that I’ve given my own dogs throughout my life. My Availability Retirement gives me a very flexible schedule, which means I can devote plenty of time to your dog rather than trying to fit pet care around a full-time job. I’m generally available throughout the week and can often accommodate different schedules and routines. I’m happy to discuss your specific needs and find a schedule that works well for both you and your pup. I also understand that plans can change, so communication is important. If you have a specific schedule or timing requirement, just let me know when you reach out and I’ll do my best to accommodate it. My goal is simple: **you enjoy your time away knowing your dog is safe, happy, and getting plenty of love and attention.** ❤️🐶 🛡️ Safety, Trust & Environment Your dog’s safety and well-being will always be my top priority. I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big deal, and I take that responsibility seriously. I carefully follow your instructions regarding feeding, medications, routines, leash requirements, crate time, and anything else that helps your dog feel comfortable and secure. I also pay close attention to doors, gates, crates, and other potential escape risks. I want your dog to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. Whether we’re out for a walk, playing in the backyard, or relaxing at home, I provide attentive and supervised care. If I care for your dog in your home, I’ll also treat your home with the same respect I would expect someone to show mine. I’ll keep things clean and secure and leave your home just as I found it. Most importantly, I believe trust is earned. I’ll communicate with you, keep you updated, and make sure you feel confident knowing your dog is in good hands. 🐾❤️
“We are so happy we found Alexis! She takes great care of our sweet, energetic, pittie Bearri. Alexis is not just a sitter. She is a great addition to Bearri's life , and gives plenty of updates to make sure we don't miss any of our puppy's first moments. We have used her services several times and definitely recommend her to anyone. If you want your dog to get the full package of comfort, love, attention, exercise, and training, book Alexis!”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ An Epic Doggie Adventure with Tammie – A Five-Star Tale of Tail-Wagging Joy In a world where trustworthy dog sitters are as rare as a unicorn at a dog park, one woman stands above the rest. Her name… is Tammie. Her mission… to turn ordinary dog-sitting into extraordinary canine adventures. And lucky for us, my sweet Sugar got to be the star. Sugar—my spunky, snow-white cockapoo with the heart of a lioness—was welcomed into Tammie’s home like royalty. Not only did she find a second family, she found a whole pack. Tammie's four dogs became her instant crew. The kind of squad you’d want backing you up on a Pixar-style rescue mission. But this isn’t just about tail wags and playtime. It’s about love. Tammie didn’t just watch Sugar—she cared for her. She cleaned Sugar’s eyes gently with a warm cloth while petting her. She let her hang out with her sweet kids. She gave me a full “report card” so detailed, it felt like a scene straight out of a Wes Anderson film: 6 pees. 1 poop. 8 water breaks. That’s dedication. That’s data. That’s love. Tammie gets what it means to be a dog parent. She lives it—traveling with her own four pups, creating a home that feels more like a dog-friendly dreamscape than just another house. She’s not just a sitter. She’s a director of happiness, orchestrating a beautiful symphony of barks, belly rubs, and tail wags. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your dog like family, craft their stay into a heartwarming mini-movie, and send them home with a sparkle in their eyes… look no further. Sugar can’t wait for the sequel. 🐾”
“Julie was amazing. My puppy had so much fun and such a good time. We will definitely be back here! I felt safe leaving him here and was sent a picture of him during his stay which was the best to receive!”

I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding schedules, medications, exercise, and routines, and I treat every pet as if they were part of my own family.
About: I’ve lived with pets my whole life, and I am a very attentive and patient care giver. Any pet staying with me will get lots of attention and love. I will ensure timely feedings, plenty of fresh water, and lots of safety and love. I am a stay at home mom, and my oldest is in full time kindergarten, so I’ll have lots of time to care for your pet, 7 days a week. I have a recently remodeled fenced in back yard, that backs up to a beautiful, shaded nature walk on the edge of a wetlands nature preserve. Any walks we go on will have plenty of safe exploring for your pet. I have two male siamese cats of my own at home who are generally pretty tolerant of other animals. I also have two young children, ages 5 and 3 so as long as your pets are comfortable and good around kids we would love to love on your fur babies!
“Raina has done a wonderful job walking our dog. We had a lot of additional details and she can be a bit of a high maintenance pup and Raina took it all in stride. Our pup loves her and her walks!”

I would absolutely book with Nancy again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive, and compassionate dog sitter.”

I got updates on how she was and the cutest pics of liberty and her daughter playing. I for sure will use her again and she will be my go to for puppy sitter.”

“Zair was a lifesaver! Due to a sudden change of plans, we messaged her on Thursday at 10:50pm, needing a pet sitter for Saturday morning! 😳 She was able to meet us on Friday for a meet and greet and watched our pup, Bodie, on Saturday. We had never used Rover before, but Zair helped us feel so comfortable leaving Bodie in her care with frequent photos/updates. He received lots of love and attention and seemed to really enjoy his time with her. We are so grateful we found Zair and would absolutely use her again! ❤️”
“Mariana was amazing with our boy! She made sure to second me updates and photos frequently. She even went above and beyond by purchasing him a new collar when his original one broke. That was such a thoughtful and generous gesture, and something she certainly didn’t have to do. We are so grateful for the love, care, and attention she gave him. We would highly recommend Mariana to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and compassionate to care for their pet!”
“The best! We were on vacation for 10 days and he communicated every single day. He took them on lots of walks and other adventures too. I am very picky when it comes to my pups and he is our guy!!!”

“Absolutely Wonderful Dog Sitter! We couldn’t be more grateful for the amazing care our dog Chewy received. From the start, it was clear that she genuinely cared about his well-being. Chewy was feeling down and wasn’t eating much, which had us worried. Not only did she keep us updated with regular photos and messages, but she also went the extra mile by asking if she could cook him some liver to mix with his food to help encourage him to eat. Thanks to her kindness and attentiveness, Chewy perked up by the third day—he was running around and playing again! It gave us such peace of mind knowing he was in such loving and capable hands. We felt like she treated Chewy as if he were her own dog. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter who truly goes above and beyond!”
“Grisel kept us updated daily with Avery’s status along with pictures and videos. She even reached out when Avery was having anxiety from fireworks noise to find out what we do to help her, and offering some suggestions. Avery really enjoyed playing with Grisel’s dog Palermo. We will definitely use Grisel in the future.”
“Janice was an excellent sitter. My dog had a an unforeseen medical issue and Janice volunteered to take my dog to the veterinary clinic which was above and beyond expectations. Janice sent updates throughout the days my dog was in her care via pictures and short videos. I highly recommend Janice.”
“Victoria P. Made my dog and cat feel so comfortable and went so well while we were out of town. This was my first time using a babysitter for our animals and I over packed for sure lol! She had cat litter, allowed animals to sleep in her bed, sent updates everyday, clear communication, and our boys didn’t break anything! 😩 she was so sweet and her husband. I will definitely use her again!”
“Initially I felt bad dropping my dog off, he was super nervous when I left but Achara helped him get settled in and kept me updated on how he was adjusting.

I’m grateful for the compassionate care and would definitely recommend her to other pet owners!”

He is an active dog and it seemed that he was able to play fetch with every member of their family. Tanner was in good hands and we will be utilizing their services again if we are in need of boarding care for our dog.”
