“We just picked up Jackson from Grant's boarding and Jackson was a happy tired boy like he had been at summer camp. Grant took great care and treated Jackson like he was his own. He sent us several pictures during the time of Jacksons stay. I highly recommend Grant for taking care of your pet during your travels.”
“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.”
“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!”
“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.”
“River loves her time with Kelsey and Alexis. Kelsey is a great communicator, sends photo updates, and takes such good care of River. River eagerly goes to Kelsey and Alexis and comes home happy. We trust that River will get the best care with them.”
“I was pretty nervous leaving our boys with anyone as they can be overwhelming to some. Jena and her whole family were wonderful and I could not be happier with how everything went. The boys were relaxed and happy at pick up and when they got home. Will definitely use Jena again!”
“Leslie is fantastic. She is calm and friendly and has a natural way of connecting with our dogs. Her home set up was nothing short of fantastic. She has thoughtfully prepared her home to provide a safe and comfortable environment for the dogs in her care. Her beautiful backyard, cozy spots for napping and doggie safety gates made for a wonderful stay for our dogs. I also appreciated the video and text updates to reassure me that our dogs were settling in and having fun. Thank you, Leslie!”
“Jennifer and family were great!! I think they went above and beyond to care for our dog Chewie while we were out of town for Thanksgiving. I would highly recommend her and will book her again when needed!! Thanks Jennifer💕”
“They’re just the sweetest couple and so great with Bentley and they sent me updates and just cared for him and loved on him so much and I am so grateful that they were able to do last minute overnight care. I couldn’t recommend them enough! They were so communicative and they were amazing from start to finish and so accommodating, and I honestly couldn’t think of more great things to say”
“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!”
“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.”
“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!”
“We are so relieved to have a smart, reliable family... to watch our Haru when we're away. They kept me updated throughout Haru’s stay. We highly recommend Mike and Patricia!”
“Haley was fantastic and our pup enjoyed his time with the family. She was very communicative and accommodative to our requests. We will be boarding our pup with Haley going forward”
“Lisa took good care of our big Great Pyrenees mix. He can get a little overstimulated and very curious when meeting new people and dogs, so we appreciated her patience and willingness to work with him. Once he settles in, he’s very sweet and loves to play (and roughhouse a bit), but he also enjoys winding down and relaxing. She handled his personality well, kept us updated, and made sure he was safe and cared for. Overall, we’re glad we found someone who could watch him and give him the attention he needs.”
“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.”
“We had the absolute pleasure of meeting Sandra and her family who meticulously cared for our pups while we had to go out of town for a funeral. During a very difficult time, Sandra and her family helped take in our pups and made them a part of their own pack. Our two pups deeply enjoyed their time with Sandra’s family. We were provided up to date information, photos and video clips of our pups and their activities everyday. If you are looking for someone who will meticulously care for your pups and treat them like their own, we would definitely recommend Sandra! We are looking to book with Sandra again in the future!”
“Here’s a warm, five-star review you can leave for Hank’s boarding: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Michelle took wonderful care of Hank while we were away. She kept us updated with photos and messages, which gave us great peace of mind. Hank came home happy, healthy, and well cared for. Michelle was reliable, communicative, and clearly loves dogs. We truly appreciate the excellent care she provided and would definitely book with her again. Highly recommended!”

“Carla did a fantastic job cat-sitting Kiki! She was extremely thorough with feeding, fresh water, and cleaning the bowls and litter box. Best of all, Kiki loved her company and got plenty of attention and sweet ear scratches. Carla even helped out by bringing in our package and trash bin. Highly recommend her for anyone looking for a reliable, caring pet sitter!”
“Kate was so amazing with my two kitties while I was away for the weekend. Sent me lots of updates and photos and super communicative with how they were doing! She gave me so much peace of mind while I was gone. She is also so sweet, professional and kind! 😊 Will absolutely be rebooking with her in the future when needed!”
“Nicole did a great job with my two kitties! I loved getting the daily updates and pictures showing how much fun they were having together. It was comforting to know my cats were being taken care of while my family and I were away on vacation. I have found my new go-to pet sitter!”
“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.”
“Sherilyn cared for my cats and my house for 4 days while I was away. It was a pleasure to hand my loved ones over to her as she is kind, knowledgeable about cats and kept in touch with me during those 4 days. I couldn't have felt more secure with her sitting my home. She is honest, thoughtful about my privacy, my home as my sanctuary and when I came home the house that was as I left it, clean and not a thing out of place. I wouldn't hesitate, not even for a second, to have her back in the future.”

“I highly recommend Kelsey. Our dogs were well cared for and from the pictures that were sent and I can see that they were very comfortable. Kelsey was very accommodating when our plans changed and answered messages without delay. Thank you very much!”
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.
“Absolutely amazing! Dan always goes above and beyond to take great care of Kamora. He’s reliable, caring, and communicative. He always makes sure she feels comfortable and well cared for. I’m so grateful!”
“Five stars, no hesitation. Luz came out to the curb to meet us at drop-off, which was such a thoughtful touch. There’s always that awkward moment as a first-time visitor where you’re not sure whether to knock or ring the doorbell, and she just took that off the table entirely. She followed all my care instructions carefully and, most impressively, rolled with a last-minute curveball: our younger dog ended up needing his neuter surgery earlier than expected, so she had to take on a whole set of post-op instructions with very little notice. She handled it without missing a beat. Her own dog was an absolute gem, calm, gentle, not a barker. That matters more than it might sound. I always worry about my dogs picking up bad habits from an anxious or reactive dog, and that was just never a concern here. Both of my dogs are Chihuahua mix puppies, which is exactly as much energy as it sounds like. She had nothing but kind things to say about them at pick-up, which honestly I appreciated, because I can barely say that about them on a high-energy day. Most telling: they were asleep within 60 seconds of getting in the car. That’s always my gold standard for a good stay. She was also wonderfully communicative throughout, sending pictures and videos regularly. I don’t always need that from a sitter, but with someone new, it means everything to know they’re being attentive. Luz absolutely was. I’ve used a number of sitters in the Roseville and Rocklin area over the years and honestly never walked away from a drop-off feeling truly at ease. This was the first time. I felt confident the whole time that my dogs were in the best possible hands. Highly recommend, especially if you have puppies or dogs with special needs.”

“Michelle was very accommodating and friendly! First time leaving our dog with someone besides family, and I felt very confident that our Dexter was cared for just like we would have hoped! He's now asleep and I think will stay that way for a day or two lol.”

“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’ve had many years of working with animals not just dogs. One of my very first jobs in high school was working at a grooming shop where I would bathe dogs. I have experience with little and big dogs and I’m not intimidated by either. All dogs deserve love and treats. I grew up with two dogs and I currently have an 11 year old Staffordshire terrier. I’m currently working part time as a caregiver. I’ve been doing that for about five years now and I also go to school. I am studying to become a nurse. So I’m just looking for something that is simple and flexible. I don’t do boarding care. I strictly just want to help take dogs out on walks or just come and play with them for a little so they’re not home alone all day. my dog is friendly with others, but will not be included in the service. He is old and retired. If you know what I mean, he likes his sleep.

“We just picked up Jackson from Grant's boarding and Jackson was a happy tired boy like he had been at summer camp. Grant took great care and treated Jackson like he was his own. He sent us several pictures during the time of Jacksons stay. I highly recommend Grant for taking care of your pet during your travels.”
“River loves her time with Kelsey and Alexis. Kelsey is a great communicator, sends photo updates, and takes such good care of River. River eagerly goes to Kelsey and Alexis and comes home happy. We trust that River will get the best care with them.”
“I was pretty nervous leaving our boys with anyone as they can be overwhelming to some. Jena and her whole family were wonderful and I could not be happier with how everything went. The boys were relaxed and happy at pick up and when they got home. Will definitely use Jena again!”
“Jennifer and family were great!! I think they went above and beyond to care for our dog Chewie while we were out of town for Thanksgiving. I would highly recommend her and will book her again when needed!! Thanks Jennifer💕”
“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!”
“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.”
“Lisa took good care of our big Great Pyrenees mix. He can get a little overstimulated and very curious when meeting new people and dogs, so we appreciated her patience and willingness to work with him. Once he settles in, he’s very sweet and loves to play (and roughhouse a bit), but he also enjoys winding down and relaxing. She handled his personality well, kept us updated, and made sure he was safe and cared for. Overall, we’re glad we found someone who could watch him and give him the attention he needs.”
“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.”
“We had the absolute pleasure of meeting Sandra and her family who meticulously cared for our pups while we had to go out of town for a funeral. During a very difficult time, Sandra and her family helped take in our pups and made them a part of their own pack. Our two pups deeply enjoyed their time with Sandra’s family. We were provided up to date information, photos and video clips of our pups and their activities everyday. If you are looking for someone who will meticulously care for your pups and treat them like their own, we would definitely recommend Sandra! We are looking to book with Sandra again in the future!”
“Here’s a warm, five-star review you can leave for Hank’s boarding: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Michelle took wonderful care of Hank while we were away. She kept us updated with photos and messages, which gave us great peace of mind. Hank came home happy, healthy, and well cared for. Michelle was reliable, communicative, and clearly loves dogs. We truly appreciate the excellent care she provided and would definitely book with her again. Highly recommended!”
“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!”
“Comet had an incredible time at Sam’s. I’m very grateful to have found Sam to take care of Comet. From the first contact, Sam was very attentive to every details I provided. It was my first time using Rover and I was a bit anxious. Sam reassured me during a meet and greet. When I dropped Comet off for the night, she was welcome in his house and he accommodated for Comet’s needs to make sure she was happy. He sent me many pictures and kept me updated of how Comet was doing. In summary, Sam is the best sitter I could ask for Comet and I will definitely reach out next time I need someone to watch her. Thank you Sam!”
“Amy & Justin gave our German Shepard an incredible experience. He was well taken care of, loved, and enjoyed his time with them and their dog River. Would book again in a heartbeat!”
“John cared for my son’s dog, Maple, a high-energy, one-year-old Labrador during her very first pet-sitting experience away from family and friends. We couldn’t be happier with our decision to choose John as her sitter. He provided daily updates and sent photos that truly warmed our hearts. It gave us such peace of mind knowing Maple was in loving, capable hands. John's home is clean and welcoming, and it’s immediately clear upon meeting him that he genuinely cares for animals. If Maple could talk, I’m sure she’d give John a five-star review herself and be excited for another visit with him and his family! THANKS JOHN!”
“Jennifer took such wonderful care of our boy! We can’t recommend her enough. We got daily pictures and saw how much fun he was having - so much we almost thought he wouldn’t want to come back home! Thank you so much Jennifer”
“Laura took care of our 19 year old poodle and did a great job! She sent us messages to keep us posted on how Mochi was doing and also a video of Mochi eating which was a concern because she is a picky eater. Mochi spent time in her backyard and was even described as frolicking which showed us mochi was happy and relaxed at Laura’s! We definitely recommend Laura to watch your babies! 🥰”
