“Jinah is the best! This was the first time I have ever had to leave my pets with anyone that’s not family and I was very nervous especially having a 4 month old puppy. I quickly realized I had nothing to worry about, Jinah took such great care of them! She sent lots of updates and pictures which I greatly appreciated. I would rebook with Jinah anytime, highly recommend!”
“Gina was wonderful with our new puppy for a weekend home stay. She was courteous, professional, and provided multiple updates. Very thoughtful and treated our house with respect. We can’t wait to book Gina again!”
“Alex is terrific -- and having him housesit with our cat TK is a joy. Alex gives the cat love and TK reciprocates -- that's clear from the photos Alex sends showing the cat snuggled up next to him (or sitting on Alex's computer, demanding attention). Alex also played sitting-tag with a friend, who came for several days, and coordinated with her so that care for the cat and watering of our garden went seamlessly. Finally, TK had a few puking incidents. While TK did not apologize to Alex, I did. Alex's response? "No worries! Animals doing animal things." He's a great sitter with a sense of humor.”
About: My experience ranges from daily care routines to addressing specific health and behavioral issues. I've always had pets of my own, which has further enriched my knowledge and passion for animal care. I am currently working part-time from home. I am available weekdays weekends, and I have the availability for playtime and walks for your pet's , I wanted to share that I have a fenced yard on half an acre, providing plenty of space for pets to play. Additionally, my friendly dog will be there for your fur babies to enjoy some playtime
“Thank you Darla for doing such an awesome job with Evie, Boo and PJ! Even though Evie is still in mourning over the passing of Rudolph Valentino Jones, you took great care of her and she ate food for you, bonus round since she hasn't eaten a lot in the last week or so. Thank you for taking excellent care of them and my beautiful home.”
“Gianna was amazing! She stayed with our Louis for four nights and we are so lucky to have found her. She sent lots of pictures and updates and took such great care of him. She was super responsive and treated our house with great care. We will definitely be using her in the future.”
“Kyline was fantastic for our house and kitty. Super upfront about work schedule. She sent us numerous photos and updates with and without prompting. Left the house clean, and took care of everything we asked. Highly recommend.”
“Thad was prompt, communicative, and great with my dog. He kept the house in good shape and watered the garden as instructed. He is very personable. I enjoyed meeting him and will call him again.”
About: I have been taking care of animals since I was a small child. I also work with difficult animals. I worked with Forgotten Felines to alter and rehome 9 feral cats from my mobile home park. I really enjoy animals getting to know them stuff. they're not just a job to me that my friend's I am Not currently working, so I am able to meet whater needs you and your furbabies need. Weekdays, Weekends and holidays are no problem for me. I enjoy working with animals. All animals even the difficult ones.

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and caring for them comes naturally to me. I recently trained my own dog myself, so I understand how important patience, consistency, and positive attention are. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or just keeping them company, I’ll make sure your dog feels comfortable, safe, and well cared for. I’m currently a student at Sonoma State University and only have classes in the mornings, so I’m free most afternoons and evenings to provide attentive care, walks, playtime, and companionship for your pets. I focus on making sure pets feel comfortable and safe in their own home while their owner is away. I follow each owner’s instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications if needed, and any routines their pet is used to. I take the time to make sure pets get plenty of attention, playtime, and exercise, while also respecting their space if they’re more shy or independent. My goal is to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible so both the pet and owner feel comfortable.
About: I have always had dogs, and big ones! I recently had my first successful foster experience that has now ended. I’m active, access to great parks, have the time, and want to help others with their pets. I will provide great care while dog parents are busy. I am a fully remote employee with a very flexible schedule. I can work from any location. Looking to supplement income and have always LOVED DOGS! I have a great neighborhood. Rohnert Park was made for dogs. While I was fostering last year I found great dog parks, hikes, and sniffspots! I have done some training as well. I firmly believe in training treats for walks, lots of bones or toys and comfy beds!
“Toni is so wonderful. She takes notes and pays attention to all Instructions and details. She’s one of the true dog lovers, and she is so sweet and attentive to Milo. I will certainly ask Toni to come back and help us out again, especially for long periods of time when we go on vacation. Thank you, Toni!”
“Lucy was so great! We had a last-minute request that she was able to accommodate, she was great at communicating and sent us cute pics of our pup Capri, and Capri loved her! Would definitely book again (:”
About: I’ve been walking my own dogs and taking care of them of over 10 years and I’ve been doing these types of apps for around a year I’m super flexible and free pretty much anytime—my schedule’s wide open right now, so I can hop on walks, drop-ins, boarding, or playtime whenever your pup needs it! Hey, I’ve got a big fenced yard—tons of space for safe play and running around. My one friendly dog loves company, and I can crate if needed.
About: I have taken care of pets since I was small. Was raised on a farm so have always had a heart for all four legged friends. Pet care is a natural part of my everyday routine. I’m home often throughout the day, which allows me to give pets consistent attention, playtime, and potty breaks. I structure my day around the animals in my care—morning feedings and walks, daytime check-ins, enrichment activities, and evening wind-down time. Because I’m already used to caring for pets and managing a household, integrating your pet’s needs into my schedule is easy and enjoyable. Their comfort and routine always come first. When pets stay in my home, they get a safe, comfortable, and fun environment. I have a fully fenced yard where dogs can play, relax, and get plenty of fresh air. I also take pets on regular walks and, if the owner is comfortable with it, we enjoy outings to local dog parks for extra exercise and socialization. Inside my home, pets are treated like family—lots of affection, playtime, and a calm, clean space to rest. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, medication needs, and any special instructions. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I maintain their normal routine and make sure they feel secure in their familiar space. I provide regular walks, feeding, potty breaks, clean water, playtime, and lots of attention. I also keep owners updated with messages, photos, and notes so they always know how their pets are doing.
About: Hi, I’m Bianca! I’m a reliable and caring pet sitter who loves spending time with animals. I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I’m happy to follow routines and will keep you updated with photos and messages. I’d love to meet you and your pet! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I plan my schedule around visits, walks, and check-ins to make sure each pet gets consistent care and attention. I’m flexible and can accommodate mornings, evenings, and weekends, so your pet’s routine stays as normal and stress-free as possible. Whether at my home or yours, I make sure pets feel safe and comfortable by creating a pet-friendly space and sticking to their usual routines. I build trust through gentle care, lots of attention, and clear communication with you. I keep their environment cozy and familiar, making sure they feel right at home and stress-free!

Kyline was communicative and responsive during our short-notice camping trip this past weekend and I think had a good time with our dog Dulce. Unfortunately, a family crisis came up for her on Sunday and she let us know ASAP so we could adjust our plans. We look forward to more stays in the future.
Alex is terrific -- and having him housesit with our cat TK is a joy. Alex gives the cat love and TK reciprocates -- that's clear from the photos Alex sends showing the cat snuggled up next to him (or sitting on Alex's computer, demanding attention). Alex also played sitting-tag with a friend, who came for several days, and coordinated with her so that care for the cat and watering of our garden went seamlessly. Finally, TK had a few puking incidents. While TK did not apologize to Alex, I did. Alex's response? "No worries! Animals doing animal things." He's a great sitter with a sense of humor.
Jinah is the best! This was the first time I have ever had to leave my pets with anyone that’s not family and I was very nervous especially having a 4 month old puppy. I quickly realized I had nothing to worry about, Jinah took such great care of them! She sent lots of updates and pictures which I greatly appreciated. I would rebook with Jinah anytime, highly recommend!
Georgia was an amazing house sitter. She took very good care of my 3 month old puppy. Including making him meals and giving him medicine. She was very responsive and communicated well and kept me informed of how he was doing over the weekend. She even started load of laundry!
Ella was amazing! I have two French bulldogs and have always had a friend or family member available to watch them. We first met with Ella to meet us and my two pups and it went great! When she watched my sweet babies she sent text updates, photos, and I really appreciated that. 10000 stars to Ella! Can’t wait for us to watch our dogs again!
This was our first time using Rover, and we were a bit nervous, but Jesse made everything so easy. He stepped in on very short notice and was flexible with the meet and greet. Ragnar immediately loved him, which put us at ease. Throughout the stay, he was completely reliable, exactly the kind of care we were hoping for. We loved getting daily updates and photos, and we came home to a happy, healthy dog. Our home was also well looked after; he even took the trashcans out. We’d definitely recommend Jesse to anyone looking for trustworthy and caring pet care.
Oli was great!! She took great care of my sweet senior dog and shy cat. Communicative, accommodating, really kind. She took great care of both of the pets and sent lots of update pics. Really appreciate the care she took, especially with all the tricky requirements for my senior guy. Definitely will want Oli to take care of my pets again in the future.
Brooke did an amazing job watching our 2 dogs and 2 cats. She reached out everyday to let me know that everything was good and the animals were happy. She also left our house really clean as if no one was ever there. I highly recommend her and will be using her again to sit for us!
