“We booked Roy because our previous sitter canceled and Roy was quick to respond and very willing to take care of Rudy. Rudy is a Doby in his teenage phase so he has a lot of energy and Roy was ready to take that on. He gave Rudy lots of attention and play time and Rudy had a blast. We felt so relaxed on our trip because we knew Rudy was in good hands. Highly recommend Roy for your sitter!”
“Martha was awesome! Very attentive and caring. Kept in contact to let me know how Angel was adjusting. And sent pictures which reassured me that she is definitely an animal lover 🩷🩷🩷”
“We were so pleased with our experience working with Jennifer! Our dog came back so happy and we could tell she was definitely well taken care of and loved! We were nervous to leave our dog over NYE with all of the fireworks but Jennifer did an excellent job of helping her to feel comfortable. She also provided great daily updates. So happy to have found her and will definitely look to her again for future stays.”
“Annie was truly a blessing while we were away. She treated my dogs Chip and Bengi like her own and showed so much patience and kindness. She was extremely understanding, dependable, and made the whole process stress free for us. It’s not easy trusting someone with your baby, but Annie made it feel so comfortable. We are beyond thankful for her! 💖💖🥹”
“Brandee's care and concern for my fur-kid was exceptional. She's very likable and an excellent communicator. She's clearly integrated Rover into her household's every day happenings and my dog confidently made himself right at home with her and her family. Dropping a dog off at Brandee's is like taking a kid to a favorite cousin's house for the week -all play and no home sick blues.”
“Grisel and her daughter took such good care of my Momo! I could tell Momo was comfortable and felt safe. They were also excellent communicators and send me very frequent picture updates of Momo, which I really appreciated. Would definitely have Momo stay with them again.”
“My dog, Puddles, had a great time at Danielle’s! I dropped her over Fourth of July weekend and so she gets pretty scared from the fireworks. Danielle provided me with updates and assured me puddles was in great hands :)”
“Reginay watched my dog CeeCee I am definitely coming back again. Reginay kept in communication with me the whole time. She agreed to a meet and greet before she watched her. She is very sweet and professional the first time we met. I picked her before but didnt need her that time . She was very sweet and understanding thats why when i needed a sitter she wss the first person i contacted. Ceecee has very bad speration anxiety and this was my first time leaving her with someone she didnt know. I called and texted a million times she never missed not one call or text and made me feel at easy everytime. My dog also have pancreatitis She have a special diet she followed all food instructions i gave her .. Ceecee was smiling the whole time she was with her and she dont do that with anyone. Anything i asked her to do with CeeCee she always said "Sure, no problem" she is very good with communication and easy to talk to . She also have a dog Nova is so sweet and was also glad she was there to keep her company then another dog came over and it was a slumber party. She even took all three walking at once multiple times and took multiple pictures and videos with CeeCee smiling the whole time and let her sleep in her room with her which was amazing and when CeeCee needed her space from the other dogs she made sure she had it. Over all she was the perfect sitter .She made feel very comfortable with her watching CeeCee I am using her everytime I need a sitter. I would give her 100 stars if I could. She was the best! I couldnt ask for a better sitter. Thank you Reginay 😊.”
“Patty did great with our Molly, who is a bit of a diva and still working on her social skills. She kept us updated on all her fun and her accomplishments. It felt like going to Auntie's house!”
“Michael is an amazing sitter! He is very attentive to my energetic husky. They have lots of play time and go on walks throughout the day. I especially like that Michael sends me a lot of pictures throughout the stay. It helps put me at ease that my pup is well taken care of and comfortable in Michael’s home.”
“This is the second time Kazue has watched our dog Coco and takes excellent care of her. Coco could be a handful because she loves being held and around people constantly. Kazue updates us with photo and video and we know Coco is well taken care of. Thank you Kazue for the excellent care and peace of mind.”
“Danielle was so good with my baby and VERY patient. She has lots of her own babies to play with which was nice as well. She was very communicative and I felt comfortable with all of her updates. I would definitely use her again!”
About: I've spent over 10 years caring for dogs — from raising my own to fostering puppies through every stage of their early development. That hands-on experience means I know how to read a dog's needs, adapt to their personality, and keep them happy, comfortable, and safe whether you're gone for an hour or a week. What You Can Expect: Every dog in my care gets individualized attention — not a one-size-fits-all routine. I'm experienced with: 💊 Medication administration (oral, topical, and timed dosing) 🍽️ Scheduled feeding tailored to your dog's diet and routine 🎾 Regular playtime and enrichment to keep tails wagging 🔒 Safety-first supervision — your dog has my full attention, always Communication You Can Count On: I know how hard it is to leave your dog, so I make it easy to stay connected. Expect frequent photo and video updates, quick responses to messages, and honest check-ins throughout every stay. My clients tell me the updates are one of their favorite parts. Let's Chat: Every dog is different, and I love getting to know yours before we get started. Reach out to discuss your dog's needs, your schedule, and pricing — I'm happy to make it work. Why Your Dog Will Love Staying With Me: I work from home four days a week, which means your dog isn't waiting around — they're with me. Between meetings, we head out for walks, and I'm always close by for snuggles, play, or just keeping them company throughout the day. I know routines matter to dogs (and their owners), so I make it a priority to stick to your pup's existing schedule — same feeding times, same walk patterns, same bedtime rituals. The goal is for your dog to feel at home, not like they're somewhere new. A typical day looks like: 🌅 Morning walk to start the day right ☀️ Midday activity breaks woven around my work schedule 🐾 Afternoon walk or play session 🌙 Wind-down time with plenty of attention before bed Whether your dog needs lots of stimulation or just a calm, cozy companion, I'll adapt to what works best for them. A Safe, Calm, and Dedicated Space for Your Dog: Your dog will have my complete, undivided attention — I only take one dog at a time, and with no other pets or kids at home, the environment stays calm, low-stress, and focused entirely on them. A home they'll feel comfortable in: 🏡 One dog at a time — no competition for attention, ever 🔒 Secure home — doors locked at all times, no patios or escape points, so you can relax knowing they're safe 🌳 Park nearby for great walks — and for dogs who prefer a quieter route, I'm happy to take more private paths away from crowds and other animals 🎒 Always prepared — I bring backup water bowls and toys so your dog is never without what they need For in-home visits: I know your dog feels most comfortable in their own space, so I keep things low-key and let them set the pace. I stick to their existing routine and give them the time and space to warm up to me on their own terms — no rushing, no pressure.
“I had a last minute change and needed a boarding one day before I left and Bari was the first to respond to my request. She is easy to communicate, always responds quickly so our communication was very efficient. I received a lot of photos everyday and could clearly see how happy my dog Youmi was during the stay! Absolutely great boarding experience. Will contact her again I need dog boarding in the future.”
“Chelsi is fantastic! Left our girl Donna with her and they had a blast together! She followed all our instructions and sent great updates and photos! We will definitely be booking with Chelsi again the next time we go out of town!”
“Stop your searching here! Rebecca is a one and a million. I’m not living in Sacramento- but I wish I was so that she could consistently care for my sweet fur baby! She treated my girl like one of her own, allowing her on the couch, bed, by her feet as she works from home, multiple walks a day, a hike, and exploring local parks. She sent SO many pictures everyday and kept me updated on my pups’s adventures. She is kind, compassionate, caring, and I simply cannot recommend her enough. I’m considering driving an extra two hours for an upcoming trip so that Rebecca can watch her again! Also- her home is perfect for your pet. She has a fenced in back yard with beautiful rose bushes, grass, and her neighborhood is safe & welcoming!”

Roy and his daughter Zora are wonderful dog lovers, and they took such tender care of Meimei, who usually struggles with separation anxiety. What amazed me most was how quickly they made her feel completely at home. I'm so grateful for Roy's flexibility and kindness throughout the process. I wouldn't hesitate to return—and I truly hope to!
Pavel took such great care of our Eve. She was very comfortable around him and his home. She’s not friendly with other dogs. But, Pavel was attentive to her needs and trustworthy. He also provided a safe environment for her at his home by keeping things cool during a heat wave. We appreciate his care for Eve.
Aida watched my dog Luna for a few days and was amazing! She kept me updated with pictures the whole time which gave me so much peace of mind. She was super nice, accommodating, and clearly cared a lot about Luna. I could tell Luna was comfortable and well taken care of. I would definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable dog sitter!
Achara was such a blessing for us. We were literally leaving in 1 day, down to crunch time, and freaking out because our girls have never been away from home. She did a meet and greet that afternoon, and was so easy going, very friendly, and even suggested if we wanted to make the transition for our babies easier, that we could bring them that same evening, as an option too. She was friendly and welcoming, her down to earth demeanor spoke volumes. My son and I liked her right from the start. Once we received our first update text and picture, my husband felt reassured, more and at ease in our decision. She kept in communication with us, put us at ease with the whole process (clear communication, the payment process because it was our first time with Rover as well) and gave us both pictures and updates of how they were doing. She respected our dogs' boundaries, as well as gave them options with sleeping arrangements. We knew our dogs were in the perfect hands while we were gone. We definitely will be making plans in the near future, either for over night or even just for the day. While also having a family and pet herself, Achara did an amazing job balancing our family with hers, and we definitely with be using her services again. Thank you!
Matt and his crew were incredible! We got multiple daily updates with photos and videos. Our dogs tend to have separation anxiety, and we were worried about how they would do away from home. But they did great, all thanks to the great care Matt provided. Our dogs also got along great with Kobe, and were constantly playing and having fun. We would highly recommend Matt as a sitter, as he was very attentive and accommodating. We will definitely be using Matt as a sitter again in the future!
Mansi was absolutely amazing with my 8-year-old Rottweiler. From the start, her communication was quick and consistent, which gave me so much peace of mind. She was also incredibly flexible when my flight was delayed an hour—something I really appreciated during a stressful travel day. Most importantly, she was so kind, attentive, and genuinely caring with my dog. She let my girl cuddle up with her and allowed her to sleep in her room with her! My dog is strong and large and this never seemed to intimidate Mansi one bit! You can tell she really takes the time to understand each pet’s needs and makes sure they feel comfortable and well cared for while their human is away. I would trust her again in a heartbeat and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable and compassionate.
Lexi was attentive, personable, timely, and caring. She recommended a meet and greet prior to booking to make sure it was a right fit for everyone, and it helped us both feel confident about the experience. My pup can be a little anxious sometimes and she took great care to make sure he was comfortable throughout his stay. She took him on long walks and send updates and pics. Would definitely recommend Lexi for your pet.
