“Even though my cat is extremely shy and didn’t come out during either visit, Sadie made a wonderful impression. She has a warm, easygoing personality, followed all instructions, and went above and beyond by checking for and bringing in packages. Her updates were thoughtful and reassuring, and I felt confident my cat was safe and cared for the whole time. We will definitely book her again.”
About: I have a flexible schedule and can provide reliable cat care. I am available most weekdays and weekends, and I will communicate clearly with you about my availability. I will carefully follow your instructions and keep your home secure during every visit. I will provide fresh food and water, clean the litter box, and give your cat gentle attention.
“We had an absolutely wonderful experience with our cat sitter Caitlin and couldn’t be happier with the care she provided. She did drop‑in visits for over a week and was incredibly easy to communicate with from start to finish. She truly went above and beyond in every way. After each visit, she sent many photos of our cat, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She also left detailed, thoughtful updates every day, explaining exactly what she did during the visit and how our cat was doing overall. It was clear she genuinely cared and paid close attention to our cat’s needs and well‑being. Knowing our cat was in such capable, attentive, and loving hands made our time away completely stress‑free. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, communicative, and exceptional sitter. We would absolutely book with her again.”
“McKenzie was so kind to watch our spicy meatball of a cat on short notice. She provided great daily updates, was very communicative and on time, and allowed us to really be able to relax on vacation knowing Poe was well taken care of. We are so thankful for her and will absolutely use her again!”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 10 years old, helping family, friends, and neighbors with feeding, fresh water, playtime, walks, potty breaks, check-ins, and keeping them company. I’m comfortable helping with daily routines such as giving treats, cleaning up after pets, providing exercise, playing fetch, giving them attention and affection, and making sure they are comfortable and safe in their home. I understand that every dog has their own personality, energy level, routine, and needs, and I take the time to learn what makes each pet feel comfortable and secure. I’m patient, responsible, attentive, and able to recognize when a dog may need space, extra attention, or reassurance. I’m currently a part-time college student and working part-time. I’m completing 8-hour training shifts through the Oct.16th, after which my work schedule will become more flexible. Because of my flexible schedule, I’m available to provide pet sitting, dog walking, drop-in visits, and other pet-care services around my class and work commitments. I’m happy to communicate with pet parents in advance to discuss their pets’ routines, needs, and preferences so I can provide reliable, consistent, and loving care. I’m committed to treating every pet with patience, care, and the same attention I would want for my own. I have a safe and caring environment where pets can feel comfortable and secure. I take pet safety seriously and always follow their normal routines, feeding instructions, medication directions, and exercise needs. I provide plenty of attention, playtime, potty breaks, and supervision while making sure each pet feels comfortable and cared for. I’m also respectful of clients’ homes and will treat their pets and belongings with the same care I would want for my own.
“Leah was fantastic! She went above and beyond to care for Coco and ensured everything was taken care of at my home while I was on a 2 week vacation. I would absolutely book with Leah again and will recommend her to all my friends and family who have pets. She is the best!”

“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💕”
About: Hello, my name is Georgina! I am currently a college student looking to make some extra cash while having fun with some pets! I have 3 dogs but I do not have much outside experience dog-sitting other than for some family friends. I would say most of my experience is from just taking care of my own really. I also have 3 younger brothers so I would say I also have experience taking care of them. I also own a cat and have for about a year! I make sure to feed my dogs every morning and leave them a bowl of water. I would say that whenever I am sitting on the couch doing homework I am always petting them and making them feel comfortable. I make sure they get their daily dose of human play and just run around until they are tired. Between all the members of the family we make sure to take them out on walks. Some facts about me are that I am fluent in Spanish, I love nature and going on hikes, I enjoy spending time with my family and friends, and I am 20 years old. If you’ve made it this far, thank you for taking your time to read this and I hope you find the perfect sitter! I currently work Tuesdays, and Thursdays-Saturdays 7-3. So I am available Sundays, Mondays, and Wednesdays all day and every other day starting at 4pm. I am flexible with anything so if I am needed before 6:30am I am also more than willing to stop by before heading to my job. Like I mentioned above, I have 3 dogs, all Mini Schnauzer's. We make sure that they are let out whenever needed and that they are fed. We play with them and take them on walks. Dogs have emotions too so we have to keep in mind how we treat them!!
About: I’ve taken care of dogs & cats before for friends and family, I also take care of my own! They’re my whole world! Your fur babies are my top priority I currently work at Sutter Health 4-5 days a week, I am able to care for your fur babies before & after work. I’m almost always available weekends 24/7! I will always make sure there are no windows / doors open or unlocked so your pets cannot get out. Along with making sure no food is accessible for them to get into easily.
“Sydney was great with our cat, Goya, and also did an excellent job in looking after the house. She was on top of everything and communicated when there was an issue or needed advice. She also sent plenty of pictures of Goya. We have already signed her up for future stays.”
“Johanna was very professional. Always quick to respond to queries. Let us know when she was showing up. Fed, watered, scooped our unsociable cats and cleaned up after them. Great experience!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats my whole life. I grew up with Golden Retrievers and Labs (dogs aged from 1 month old - 14 years old), many house cats and spent years volunteering as a foster parent at a local kitten rescue (cats aged 1 day - 2 months). Family, friends, and neighbors have relied on me to check in with their pets, feed them, stay overnight, exercise their dogs (walk/play in backyard), and administer medication when needed. I am recently graduated from College and have full availability! I am open any day of the week to spend some time with your furry loved ones. I am very comfortable walking your dogs, playing with them in the backyard, crating them, administering medication, etc. I am also very comfortable working with cats, feeding, playing, medicating, etc.
“Gizmo & Boba loved their time with Kacy! They warmed up to her very quickly! I love how she sent pictures and gave us regular updates. I was comforted that my pets were able to stay safe, healthy, and calm while we were away. If you have any doubts about leaving your furbabies with Kacy don't! She’s great and words can't describe how happy I am I went with her! Your pets will be in great hands with Kacy.”
About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and have years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all different sizes and personalities. I’ve had two Huskies, a Golden Retriever, and a Rottweiler, so I’m very comfortable with large, energetic dogs and understand the attention, exercise, and patience they need. I also have a cat of my own, so I’m just as comfortable caring for feline friends! 🐾 I truly love animals and will treat your pets with the same love, attention, and care I’d want for my own. I work from home on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Fridays from 6 AM–3 PM, which gives me plenty of flexibility to provide your pet with attention, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. I live near a large park in Rocklin with plenty of space for nice, enjoyable walks and outdoor time. I’m happy to take your dog there for some fresh air and exercise, or if you’d feel more comfortable having them stay close to home, I can stick to walks around your neighborhood and follow their normal routine. Your pet’s safety and comfort will always come first!

“Alexis is wonderful. We have a shy, 15 year old cat with some health problems. Alexis knew just how to approach him so that he got to know her gradually and was never frightened. We also feel very lucky to have found someone who can administer the shots he needs for diabetes and the fluids he needs for kidney disease. Alexis has been quickly responsive to my texts and always on time. She is very reliable and she left the house clean and neat. I highly recommend her, especially if you have a cat with extra needs. We are looking forward to having her take care of our cat again very soon. Thank you, Alexis!”

Thank you so much Nicole, you are the best! We always feel great about leaving Lovely in your care when we take a trip, and this time was no exception! Your write-ups and photos are so thoughtful, and you are so thorough, we can really tell she enjoys your visits! Thank you again!
Jacob is very reliable and made sure my cats were getting the care they needed while I was away. This was my third time booking him and I will always look for him first next time I’m going away. He communicates well and shows care for my cats. One of my cats is very shy when there’s people around but he likes him.
McKenzie did a great job taking care of our 15 year old cat! McKenzie was very responsive and easy to communicate with and she provided many pictures each day along with written details about how her daily visit went. We really appreciate everything McKenzie did to care for our pet while we were away. We would definitely ask McKenzie to care for our pet again! Thank you McKenzie!
Madeline was an amazing sitter for our two cats! She was reliable, communicative, and followed all of our instructions perfectly. One of our cats requires medication, and she handled that with care and confidence, which gave us great peace of mind. She also went above and beyond by spending time outside with our cats so they could safely enjoy their courtyard time—something they really love. It meant so much to know they were getting that extra attention while we were away. We had two very happy, well-cared-for kitties. I would absolutely book Madeline again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and thoughtful sitter!
Michelle was so professional and went above and beyond while checking in on my kitties. She was responsive and kept me in the loop when dropping. I appreciated her communication throughout my tip and enjoyed seeing the photos she sent. I highly recommend Michelle for any services you may need and will be using her for any future pet needs!

House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
