“Mackenzie watched our Dog Cookie for us while we went on a family trip out of town. Mackenzie was kind enough to send pictures of cookie relaxing and having a good time at her house. Cookie was very happy and had a great time with Mackenzie, we will definitely be reaching out to her whenever we have another family trip. Definitely recommend! 5/5 stars!”
“Second time my dog Olivia has been in Bobby’s care. Seems like she is very chirpy and comfortable. I have a feeling she is happy there :) Asked Bobby to send me a few photos and updates while I was away and he responded immediately.”
“Denise is a dream caretaker of our pup Didi. Super good experience from start to finish. Very communicative. She cares so much about our fur baby. Pics and video updates were great. We had so much faith and trust that Didi was being cared for and enjoying her time while we were out of town. Highly recommend!”
“Maria was great. She did such an amazing job with my very spoiled Frenchie Charlie. She sent me pics and made me the cutest Valentines day magnet with my fur baby. I have never left my Charlie with anyone aside from family so she helped to ease my anxiety. I highly recommend her!”
“My dog Oreo had a great two weeks with Marilee and Joe. Oreo had loads of fun playing and wrestling with their dog Zuko who is a great role model for my 3 year old pup. The entire family welcomed and played with Oreo. He even got to go visit the river to swim! 😊 🐕 💗 💦 Marilee was great with communication and sent photos of my happy pup! Lol! He had such a great time I was sort of worried that Oreo would be in withdrawal when we got home without all of their company and attention! We are planning on having Oreo visit again when we go out of town.”
“Randy and her family were amazing! She sent regular pictures and updates. It was hard leaving my dog with a sitter but Randy put my mind at ease with positive updates. We’ll definitely book with her again!”
“Kirsten was great!! She was kind and communicative by sending me pics/vids with updates and was very reassuring as it was my first time having my boy away from home. I would definitely trust her to watch him again, 10/10”
“Regina’s did a great job taking care of Kobe. She sent me pictures and videos almost every day, and she even dropped him off at another dog sitter for me when I wasn't able to since I was out of town for two weeks.”
“Anthony is top-notch! He took great care of our King Charles Cavalier for four days. Anthony sent lots of pictures and videos of our dog playing with his dog, Kai. He took our dog on many walks to the local park and played fetch with the dogs his backyard. Anthony was very flexible with pickup/drop off times and had everything ready to go when it was time to take our dog home. I highly recommend Anthony for dog boarding and we will be rebooking with him in a few weeks.”
“I am so pleased with Orry’s care. I received pictures and videos throughout his stay that showed how much fun he was having. He was shown so much love and I appreciated the flexibility when plans changed at the last minute. I have no problems sending Orry back for another “vacation”.”
“Naomi was amazing and has a huge heart for pups. She had our Benny for 2 nights and was great with communicating and updating us with photos and video of his time there. Highly Recommended! We will be using her for all our vacations.”
“We're glad we chose Khyli to watch our pets. It was the first time boarding our two cats, and she did a great job keeping them and our dog safe and happy for a long vacation.”
“Lupe was great! Great communication, sent pictures and videos, and kept me updated. She has plenty of space for Kona to run around and play. She even had her own room! Would definitely use her again!”
“Georgina treated my dogs with love, care and respect. She is a natural with animals and I won't hesitate to leave my dogs again with her. Thank you Georgina!”
“Ersai took such great care of Goku while I was away! Communication was excellent from start to finish. She sent lots of photos and updates every day, which gave me so much peace of mind. She also asked thoughtful questions whenever she wanted to make sure Goku was comfortable and well cared for, and I really appreciated her attention to detail. It was clear that Goku was happy, loved, and in great hands during his stay. I highly recommend Ersai to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter. I would absolutely book with her again in the future. Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of Goku!”
“Marcela did a great job with Gabby! Gabby loved having a playmate Taco (Marcela's dog) and even whined when she came home for a bit because I think she was sad about leaving her playmate : ( Would definitely use Marcela again! Thank you!”
“I cannot say enough good things about Catherine and Ernie and the care they provided for my English Labrador, Luna. Luna stayed with them for six days and nights, and the difference in her behavior has been remarkable. It's now been three days since she came home, and I am still noticing positive changes in her temperament and obedience. They provided the perfect balance of structure, consistency, and what I would call "tough love," which is exactly what Luna needed. Before her stay, Luna could be difficult on walks, would pull on the leash, react aggressively toward other dogs, and even try to bite her collar when I put it on. Catherine and Ernie not only worked with Luna during her stay, but they also took the time to teach me techniques that I could continue using at home. The results were almost immediate. Luna no longer tries to bite her collar, walks much more calmly, and is significantly easier to handle on a leash. One of the biggest improvements came from introducing a prong collar and teaching me how to use it correctly. Walking Luna is now much more enjoyable, and she is far less reactive toward other dogs. Catherine also recommended training videos and resources to help me continue Luna's progress. There are countless dog-training videos on YouTube, but it was incredibly valuable to have someone show me techniques that were specifically effective for my dog. Another thing I truly appreciated was the communication. Catherine kept me updated throughout Luna's stay with regular texts, photos, and videos, which gave me peace of mind and allowed me to see Luna's progress firsthand. If you are looking for dog sitters who genuinely care about your dog's well-being and are willing to go above and beyond to help improve behavior and training, I highly recommend Catherine and Ernie. Luna came home happier, calmer, and more obedient, and I am extremely grateful for everything they did for her.”

“Morgan was so wonderful! Needed a mid day drop-in for my senior dog. Reached out with only a day or so notice (my fault) and Morgan was able to help no problem! Always nice to have a sitter in the area you can count on and trust, Morgan is definitely on my list ᵕ̈”
“My second time using Victoria and I’ve found her dependable, caring, respectful of my pets and home and great at cleaning up after my cats. I will happily use her again.”
“Hans worked really, really hard to get the cats out of their shell! My male cat said "no!", but my female cat decided that he was a good human who would deliver treats and petting (and listen to her complain). We came back to happy, well fed cats and a clean litter box, which made for happy humans. Thank you Hans!”
“You can tell Reginay loves animals. She is very patient and works with your pet to make sure they are comfortable. Very communicative and will send pictures and videos throughout the day. Toni loves his stays there. 🥰”
“Holly took the best care of my two cats who both require meds in the mornings and evenings. She won over their hearts and trust so that insulin injections, pills and syringe meds all went well, with lots of snuggles and playtime. Thank you so much, Holly! 🐾🐾”
“Very kind and communicative! Stayed with our pups in a hotel while we went to a family wedding. Felt very confident leaving our semi anxious dogs in her care. Highly recommend!”
About: I live in the Sacramento Delta in a quiet neighborhood. Great neighborhood for walks and a nice fenced corner lot yard for your pup to run around in. I live with my elderly father who enjoys meeting new doggy friends. 24 hr supervision since I work remotely! I’m an early riser and enjoy morning walks. Your doggy will recieve a good amount of outdoor time and have an active and stimulating day. I’m comfortable with your dog sleeping in bed with me but respect if you prefer them to sleep in a crate. I work remotely so I have no issue staying at your house as well!
“Jenna is better than anything I could have ever asked for! I feel incredibly lucky to have someone so capable and passionate to put my trust into. She goes above and beyond at every step of the way to make you and your pets her #1 priority. She’ll be my go-to for any time I need someone to care for my little guys.”
“Mooney was very communicative and sent us really cute pictures of our rabbit — she looked so happy and relaxed with him! Would definitely recommend his services.”
“Marina did a great job, our cat can be really skittish but she seemed happy with Marina and would actually come out when Marina was over. Can’t recommend her enough!”
“Sierra and Seth, both watched our giant dogs today! They did several drop-ins and made sure the dogs needs were very well met at each one. They are also very communicative, which was so important because we have a large dog with reactivity issues and behaviors. Sierra and Seth were very responsive to our dog's needs, and willing to adjust and adapt when our reactive dog needed different kinds of support. We would love for them to sit for us again and their help was irreplaceable!”
“Esmerilda took great care of our kitty and was lovely to work with! She is also pre-veterinary and has a lot of experience working with animals, which makes her very qualified. She checked in at the designated times and sent us cute reports and pictures. She is wonderful. We trust her and would definitely use her services again!”
“I took an extended/long-distance trip in December and this was the first trip I've ever taken without my cat. I was quite anxious to leave him home alone, especially with the recent passing of his cat sibling. I booked drop-in visits with Rachel and she was great! I really appreciated the time that she spent with my cat. I could tell that she was very attentive and caring toward him. I also loved the selfies/pictures she sent during most of the drop-in visits. I could tell that he was happy having a visitor! Rachel also offered to drop-in on an additional day if my flight was cancelled, which was very kind. And after a long day of traveling, I came home and did not have to throw out any litter/trash, as she had taken care of it already--which I also really appreciated! I plan to book with Rachel again if I take any future trips. I highly recommend her!”
“From the beginning, Khyli was welcoming and showed genuine concern for my kittens. They're 9 months old and had not been anywhere since I adopted them 7 months previously. During the booking time when she had my kittens, Khyli was patient and provided explanations of how my kittens were doing. She sent pictures and videos. The reason for a 4 ranking instead of 5 was that Khyli would not let me see where she was keeping my kittens. Although it looked fine from the pictures and videos, I wish she'd said in the booking information that for security reasons, she would not let me see the apartment where she was keeping my kittens. Hearing that, I would have selected someone else. Because I was flying out that day, I had to leave them with Khyli during an outside the car transfer and hope they'd be ok. They were, but that's the reason I won't book with Khyli again. Again, my kittens seemed to be taken care of, but from now on, I won't book without visiting the home prior to the booking date.”

“Our miniature pinscher had such a fabulous time. He will be so happy to return!!! Our chihuahua has warmed up to the idea of being under Briana's care a lot more than anticipated. She is a hard sell, but seemed happy! Will definitely be back!”
“It was Lily's first time with a pet sitter and she loved it! Giezell took us last-minute and accommodated our schedule. She kept us updated with photos and videos through the day. We're glad to have found a family that Lily can visit again!”
“Teddy had a great afternoon and evening. Communication was very quick and I love getting updates and photos. He had a great night and slept well when he got home. I will definitely use her again when we are back in the area thank you so much.”
“Thank you for always taking great care of my fur baby. I have booked Brian now more than a few times and every time he sends updates and pictures. I couldn’t have asked for a more reliable person to take care of our girl .Whether it’s the whole weekend or for the day every time I have peace of mind.”
“So lucky to have found Justin! I was in Sacramento for a work thing and had to find a sitter last-minute for my senior pup. Justin went out of his way to accommodate my schedule and was so patient with my dog. I felt like he really listened to my care instructions and is obvious he loves dogs. Truly appreciate him and wish we lived nearby so he could be our regular sitter!”
“Koi was in such good hands. Reginay kept us updated through out the day to let us know how Koi was doing. She also sent us pictures and videos. We definitely recommend Reginay. We will be booking with her in the future.”
“Julie and her sister Sandy are wonderful. My miniature Dachshund, Bruno, has been going to their home for doggie daycare for some time now. They have gone above and beyond taking him with very little notice and picking him up and returning him. I feel very confident about his safety while in their care. Recently, I had an emergency and they picked him up without any notice and I boarded him with them for 3 days. This was the first time he was away from home and his first night he was nervous, but they gave him lots of reassurance and comfort. I highly recommend them to anyone that is looking for a loving and caring doggie daycare and boarding in a home environment.”
“Very experienced with dogs of all sizes and dispositions - he made Brieze comfortable from the beginning and she had so much fun there she didn’t want to leave! Very flexible, accommodating, and sent lots of updates and pictures. Will definitely be back!”
“Shanna and her husband were absolutely amazing. We came from Oregon and they were very accommodating for our boy dodger. Also I loved that even if they have multiple dogs they keep them separated between her and her husband so that was amazing because you never know with dogs and different personalities. If we ever return here we will def be booking with her again. Also her house is great for the dogs. She has a big fenced area in the back for dogs to sniff around and get used to the new area. 10/10.”
“June is the best! Bella spent the day with June and her dog Ceaser. Bella is a special needs dog and June knew just how to work with her to make her feel comfortable. June made sure to keep me posted and updated on Bella throughout her stay. She sent lots of pictures so I could see how she was doing. Her dog Ceaser was great with Bella too. Bella has become very attached to June. She also loves Ceaser, her new gentle giant friend. I strongly recommend June if you’re looking for a very responsible caring sitter for your pup. I know Bella is in good hands with June, and will be using her as our sitter in the future.”
“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!”
“First time Rover user, and we couldn't more impressed with Annie. Starting with the "meet and greet", Annie welcomed our big baby despite his huge size (100lbs). He has an injury that requireds a special touch, and Annie more than delivered. We received pictures and videos throughout the day, and I swear, he almost didn't want to come home! We will certainly let Annie care for our big baby on day and overnight visits in the future! 🥰”
“My dog spent the day at Lupe’s today and left happy. Lupe had great hospitality. She gave me a little tour of where my dog would be spending his time and asked questions about his needs/personality when I dropped him off. The indoor area is very specious and has a gate to separate some dogs from others based on temperament. My dog was showing signs of possessiveness over his toy so she was proactive about giving him his own space away from the other dogs. She said when the dogs weren’t outside playing he chose to spend his time right next to her while she worked. Lupe sent pictures and gave a recap of how he played well outside with other dogs and was fed separately.”

“Amanda and her family are wonderful! My dog is a big boy and they are able to handle him. I can tell he has a great time because he is exhausted when he gets back. I have them walk him twice a week.”
“Brandon did an excellent job with poncho making sure he got his pee breaks and avoiding other dogs . He kept poncho interested despite poncho being tired and wanting to come back home .”
“Marina is incredibly responsive and provided wonderful care for my old dog. I can tell my dog likes her visits and walks. Marina is attentive, asks questions, and overall very caring. Highly recommend Marina!”
“Ilse did great with Xena. She was attentive to Xena’s reaction to other dogs . She kept her under control and calm. Xena was happy to see Ilse when she came. She was on time and was needed for a week after I had hip surgery. Good job.”

About: I’ve always loved animals and spent the past year interning at Front Street Animal Shelter, where I gained hands on experience caring for dogs and learning more about animal behavior, safety, and daily care routines. During my internship, I worked with dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels, which helped me become patient, attentive, and comfortable handling pets with different needs. I’m passionate about providing a safe, loving, and comfortable environment for every pet in my care. I have an extremely flexible schedule. This allows me to be available from mornings through late afternoons on most days, making it easy for me to provide consistent, reliable care for pets. I prioritize safety, trust, and a calm environment for every pet in my care. I always follow the owner's instructions closely and make sure pets are supervised, comfortable, and secure at all times. My experience at an animal shelter has taught me how to read animal behavior, respond calmly in different situations, and create a low-stress environment for pets of all personalities. I treat every pet as if they were my own and aim to build trust with both pets and their owners through reliable, attentive care.

About: Hi, I’m Khyli! Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I’ve been providing dependable pet care for over 14 years. What started as helping friends, family, and neighbors has grown into a passion and career I truly love. I’m currently a pre-veterinary student and enrolled in a Veterinary Medicine program, so I’m always expanding my knowledge of animal health, behavior, and compassionate care. My goal is to become a veterinarian, and every pet I care for is treated with the same patience, respect, and attention I’d give my own. Whether your pet needs a walk, a drop-in visit, overnight care, or simply someone to keep them company while you’re away, you can count on me to provide reliable, loving care that fits their unique routine and personality.

Whether your pet needs a midday potty break, daily walks, drop-in visits, or overnight care, I’ll do my best to accommodate your routine.

My goal is to make that process as stress free as possible for both you and your pet. I’ll always follow your care instructions, respect your pet’s routine, and keep you updated with photos and messages so you know they’re doing well while you’re away.

“Pratik took incredible care of our girl! He sent pictures multiple times a day and I could genuinely tell how much he and his wife love dogs. He made sure she was comfortable and genuinely cared for her (like we would have) the whole time Cali was there. We will definitely be booking again with him!”
“Both were super sweet. Kind energy. My little guy was so happy when I picked him up. So I know I left him in good hands. Received a video of him on a walk and a pic of him lounging while I was away. Super thankful for them! Can't wait to have them watch Roscoe in the future”
“This was our first time leaving our Koa Bear, so we were naturally anxious. Rachel was wonderful and provided daily updates that really put our minds at ease. We could tell Koa was in great hands. Thank you, Rachel, for taking such great care of our sweet Koa! We wouldn’t hesitate to book with you again.”
About: I have experience with many different types of animals. I have cats, dogs, a snake, a lizard, snails, and fish. I also lived on a farm and have experience with farm animals. I am good at training dogs and have experience with animal's medication management. My dog has an anxiety disorder, and one of my cats had an intense medical scare which required medication three times a day. Work to provide the best for all my animals, and I'll work to provide the best for yours as well. I currently work part-time during the days. There is never a time where my house is unsupervised for more than a few hours at a time to go out and eat or run errands. With my dogs, I typically crate them when I leave to prevent them from causing problems like digging in the trash, but that is up to your discretion for your animal. I live in a house in a nice, quiet neighborhood. I have a fenced in yard that my two dogs frequently run around in. I have a small inflatable pool for the animals to play in during the heat. I will take care to attend to each animal's individualized needs, so if your dogs needs to be crated at certain times or has specific triggers please let me know.
