Cat Sitting Emeryville

“Laura was incredible! She was caring, attentive, and kept me updated with adorable photos. My cat can be a bit sassy with new people but he absolutely loved her. I couldn’t ask for better care!”

About: I’ve taken care of my dog, nicely and well, and also I trained it. She became the smartest dog what neighbourhood's were seen. I have a job with a flexible schedule, so I have plenty of free time. I enjoy spending time in nature and think it would be a perfect fit to go with dogs I have an animal-friendly home with a nice backyard, and I'm happy to walk dogs or care for them there. I am also willing to visit clients' homes.

About: At Deerbrook Petbnb, your pet is treated like family. I’ve been proudly providing trusted, in-home pet care in the community since 2017, with a focus on comfort, routine, and personalized attention. Every pet is unique, and I believe their care should reflect that. You tell me your pet’s routine at home, and I recreate that same experience in my own home—helping them feel safe, relaxed, and right at home while you’re away. Caring for animals isn’t just what I do—it’s something I take great pride in. By keeping my numbers small (up to 6 dogs at a time, along with cats), I’m able to provide hands-on, one-on-one attention, ensuring every pet receives the love, care, and interaction they deserve. My home is designed with your pet’s happiness in mind. Situated on a beautiful acre-and-a-half property, dogs enjoy at least three 30-minute free-play sessions each day, giving them plenty of space to run, explore, and burn off energy. For additional outdoor time, we also have a spacious 30x30 ft outdoor kennel area where dogs can safely socialize, relax, sunbathe, and play. Cats are just as well cared for, with a dedicated cat room featuring climbing trees, window perches, and wall-mounted jungle gyms to keep them safe, stimulated, and comfortable. At Deerbrook Petbnb, I combine my passion for animals with a commitment to exceptional care—so you can have peace of mind knowing your pets are in good hands. I run a full-time, in-home pet boarding business, Deerbrook Petbnb, and have been doing so for the past 9 years. Pet care is my primary focus, and my daily schedule is fully dedicated to my clients, their pets, and their individual needs. I treat every pet as if they were my own. I follow the same routine you have established at home and replicate it in my own home to ensure consistency, comfort, and a smooth transition while you’re away.

About: Hello 👋 there! My name is Michelle🧡 & my best friend Hunny🐾 ( You can see her profile in this app too). 🧡 WHY I CHOSE ROVER I first learned more about ROVER through PetWatch, which gave me a coupon when I registered Hunny's microchip with Petwatch. I had heard that ROVER is being recommended within the pet-care community and veterinarians. I value the service fees I am sharing with ROVER because they support the platform that connects us, provide ease of booking + payment tools, + ROVER offers protections + safeguards for pet parents, pets + sitters alike. After devoting so much of my life to my 30- yr nursing career, my marriage + raising my children, I am finally learning how important it is to follow MY own dreams, hobbies + passions too. Self-care, time in nature + new adventures have become especially meaningful during this stage of empty-nesting. And so begins my new adventure here on ROVER. 🐾 MY LIFE WITH ANIMALS I have over 30 years of experience caring for dogs + cats and have always enjoyed sharing my life with animals of different breeds, sizes, ages + unique personalities. I currently have a very gentle mama: my 5-year-old, 59-lb Black + Tan Coonhound named Hunny. She loves going on walks with many of the dogs I meet. I always make sure to do a meet and greet first to make sure everyone knows each other. If she is with me on walk days, she waits in the car or van for her furry friends to come out to walk. There is no furry friend or human she meets who doesn’t love her and vice versa. I raised two Rhodesian Ridgebacks from puppies. Major lived to 11½ + LOVED flyball, so I still love playing fetch with dogs who enjoy retrieving. Maggie lived to age 13 + ran beside me when running was my passion. Nowadays, I love walking through neighbourhoods with big shade trees rustling, admiring flowerbeds with monarchs + bumblebees, listening to the birds singing songs ( especially Cardinals). Giving dogs sniffing time is so important for their mental well-being, just like us! After my two Ridgebacks, I fell in love with RESCUING Coonhounds. Beau Beauregard, Zellie Zoo Zoo + Belvey Belvedere have all crossed the beautiful Rainbow Bridge 🌈. Every one of these losses has taught me more lessons about love, patience + giving of SELF through the privilege of caring for another living being. As an RN and mum to my children + pets, I do not take special needs lightly. I am calm, patient, observant + very affectionate, and I am very comfortable following detailed routines, medication instructions, including oral medications + giving injections. I know how important routine toileting is + attentive personal care. I know how hard it is to be away from our fur babies. If a pet wears briefs, I am diligent about keeping them clean, dry + comfortable while protecting their dignity because of my years of caring for our sweet boy Belvey Belvedere. I can handle doggies who need an increase in FREQUENCY of visits for more attention (like every 2 hours) for potty breaks with brief changes. My nursing experience has also taught me to pay attention to changes in behaviour, appetite, special diets, mobility + overall well-being. Before long, I develop a deep bond with my furry friends—and I miss them when our time together ends. I look forward to meeting you soon! Michelle🧡 🐾 🏡🐾 Please see my fees (which includes ROVER's fees)👀 for my 30 min WALK rate OR 15 minute DROP-IN rate (economical pop-in's to your home) listed as your daily choices. Longer 60 minute WALKS listed too. EXTRA cost for ADDing on more dogs or cats. I can come by throughout the week + weekends-fitting your pet(s) in within my schedule. Just try to give me a heads up when you think you will need me for your vacations, or work schedule and I will do my best to accommodate you + your furry pet. I can stay overnight at your place if Hunny can come along with me. She does not mind any dogs or cats and is very respectful. I journal every day, + I take photos everywhere I go. You will receive photos + updates while you are away. I love capturing the little moments that remind us to be present: a happy dog sniffing something fascinating, a cat curled up in a favourite patch of sunlight, a peaceful walk, or a funny expression that tells an entire story. Thank you for reading my bio. I am excited to meet your family soon. ~ 🧡🐾Michelle 🧡 MY PROMISE TO YOU My focus is on reliability, trust and peace of mind. I provide dependable care + treat your dog, cat and home with the same respect + attention I want for my own. I am excited to be building a clientelle of new furry friends—+ perhaps some new human friends too. 🧡 I want to make your time away from home as comfortable and stress-free as possible for you. I know how hard it is to leave them. I care about making sure your pet(s) feels safe, loved + genuinely cared for. Your pet’s happiness is mine too! I GET it! I follow each pet’s normal routine and your instructions carefully so they feel safe + comfortable in their own home. I am attentive to doors, gates, leashes, feeding schedules + medications, + I do not leave a pet unsecured, off- leash unless it is in your own backyard, of course. My goal is for you to return to your pet(s) and they feel peaceful, loved and well-cared for.
