About: I've owned several cats and dogs myself, including rescues, seniors, and animals with special needs. I'm outdoorsy and will love taking your dog to the park or on a local hike. My cat has special needs so I'm well-versed in specialized care. I've raised multiple puppies and cared for them through their senior years. If scheduling me for home visits or walks, I'll have my nephew with me until 1pm for kid-friendly dogs, or visits can be scheduled on weekends or after 1pm on weekdays for kid-free needs. For in-home services, I'm happy to sleep in your home if needed, or make as many visits there as requested. I've been caring for animals my entire life, and will treat your fur babies like my own.
“Our dog is slow to warm up to people and on only the second time meeting Celia she warmed right up to her and was happy enough that they went on a solo walk together. Celia is punctual and very thoughtful. Definately recommend”

“When we were planning a holiday trip, Michelle stepped in and gracefully took care of our baby! Felt incredibly comfortable having her watch our cat and we appreciate the amount of professionalism and care she put into the job! 🩷”

I have had dogs in the past and love to train and take care of all animals.
“Heather is always amazing! I’ve booked multiple times but this was my longest trip. Her and my dog are best buds! I can tell my pup is having an amazing time with her in the pics. Heather is very reliable and trust worthy. I feel extremely comfortable knowing my fur baby is in the best hands 🤍🤍🤍”


“Ember is THEE BEST. Why can't I give her 10 stars?!? She was so communicative and understanding with our crazy travel schedule and reassured me with how my baby was doing. I would recommend her to anyone for her kind, gentle and patient care.”

About: 🐾 Reliable Pet Sitting & Walks — Dogs, Cats & Birds Welcome! Hi! I’m a dedicated animal lover offering dog walks and overnight pet sitting. I know how important it is to leave your pets with someone you trust, and I treat every animal in my care like they’re part of my own family. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and personalities—from energetic pups who need long walks to older dogs who prefer a slower pace and extra attention. I focus on keeping pets comfortable by following their normal routines, giving them plenty of exercise, playtime, and affection. I also have experience caring for birds of all kinds, which is something many sitters don’t offer. I’m comfortable helping with feeding schedules, cage care, and making sure your feathered friends stay happy and stress-free while you’re away. During overnight stays, I make sure your pets feel safe and relaxed in their own home while keeping things consistent with their daily routine. I’m attentive, reliable, and always happy to send updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pets are in good hands. If you’re looking for someone who genuinely loves animals and will care for your pets like their own, I’d love to help! Feel free to reach out with any questions—I look forward to meeting you and your pets! 🗓️ Schedule & Availability I currently work Wednesday–Saturday from 2 PM to 11 PM, but I still have availability for pet care depending on your needs. I’m typically available for: • Morning walks and drop-ins before 2 PM • Late-night check-ins after 11 PM • Overnight pet sitting • Sunday–Tuesday availability with a more flexible schedule When doing overnight stays, I make sure pets are fed, exercised, and comfortable before I leave for work and again when I return. I always try to keep their routine as normal as possible so they feel safe and cared for. Feel free to message me with your dates and your pet’s routine, and I’ll do my best to accommodate! 🛡️ Safety, Trust & Environment Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets and your home, and I take that responsibility seriously. I always follow the routine and care instructions you provide, including feeding schedules, walks, medications if needed, and any special needs your pet may have. I pay close attention to behavior and comfort so pets stay happy and stress-free while you’re away. I’m respectful of your home and make sure everything stays clean, safe, and secure during overnight stays. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pets are being well cared for. My goal is to create a calm, safe environment where your pets feel comfortable and loved until you return home.
About: I am Samantha. I have plenty of experience on caring for your fur babies! I'm a very positive, responsible and caring person. I am also comfortable with performing any tasks around the house that you might need to make your life easier! I am a non smoker, and have transportation ready at all times. I believe in playing outside and having healthy happy pets! Also, I have worked at a Nationwide known pet hospital banfield for 4 1/2 years and at Town and Country Animal Clinic as a supervisor for 2. Also worked part time washing/grooming. I'm a pet parent to my 2-year-old pit bull mix, a lab and a husky/wolf mix and our two labradors. My parents used to breed labs and I have been apart of raising and training them! I have been around pets my whole life and absolutely love them! Also if anything were to happen to your babies I have Vet assisting knowledge to help asap! So I would be the best choice for you and you family! Please feel free to contact me to know more. :) I have more references upon request! Also I unfortunately cannot board pets at my house due to having 6 animals already. This is my only job right now so all of my focus goes to animals. If there are situations where I am already sitting I have been able to work things out. My house is currently built like Fort Knox. We have runners for dogs so when your pets are outside I prefer to sit or play outside with them.
About: Hi, I'm Emilia. ✨👋🏽✨ Thank you for your interest. I am a lifelong animal lover. When I was little I used to rescue animals without owners and bring them to my house until we found them a home that loved them. I have had rabbits, thousands of dachshunds, cats, talking birds, green iguanas and a white mouse that I rescue from being eaten by a snake. Currently I have 3 dogs, Toby is 9 years old, we rescued him from a kennel in Oregon and then we have 2 Argentinean sisters that we brought from Argentina 🥰 they are all sweet and they are trained. I would love to be able to step in and take care of other people's animals. I have been taking care of dogs that weigh from 20 to 100 pounds! I can walk (forest / park / beach), feed, play with your puppies, take him to the vet and give them all the attention and love they need. I am willing to go the extra mile and will attend to your needs. ✨🤍🙌 * All guidelines and rules for your home and for the care of your dog will be followed. Please let me know in detail. ** All dogs / pets will be on a leash for all walks at all times unless otherwise requested *** I will need to know if your puppies cannot be left alone at all and must be with me at all times during longer homestays. Additional charges may apply. *** ALL PRICES AND DETAILS CAN BE DISCUSSED. I am an artistic entrepreneur and my studio is in my house, so my schedule is quite open and adaptable 😉 I am able to check-ups, walks and overnight stays in on your pups on a regular basis. I can work with YOUR schedule! 📅 I am very excited to connect with you and your pets. I have a spacious house, with a large and fenced backyard, your fur babies will have enough space to play. I always like to familiarize myself with the client's home/yard/neighborhood! Especially for the naughty ones! I love taking them on walks on the beach or in the woods. If your dog is trained we can go to the dog park. 🐾 If you want to spend the night, I can also water your plants 🪴 ✨💚
“I booked Erica for a drop in when I was heading out of town and she really made me feel like my cat was in good hands. She sent a cute photo of him and communicated well. Would recommend!”
“Kristina took great care of my two cats during check-ins. They got playtime and cuddles. I really appreciated getting videos and rover cards with notes on how they were doing while I was gone.”


About: I grew up with cats, dogs, and nearly every kind of pet. Pet sitting has been a long term side gig for me, helping out friends, family, and a wider circle of individuals through mutual connections. For boarding and providing day care, I work from home, so I will be able to spend quality time with your pet. My availability is flexible for last minute or uncommon scheduling needs, just ask! Every pet and owner has their personal lifestyle and routines, so in your home where your pet has their familiarity, I always respect your space and typical routines.
About: I have been a repeat sitter for a pug and house sitter for month long stays. I have cared for our queensland heeler for 10 years. I am a Eureka resident and a working professional with a flexible, hybrid schedule. I am working remotely Monday through Friday with a flexible schedule. I can adapt my schedule to the needs of your pet, including walks throughout the day. I am attentive to individual pets needs and a client said I left the house cleaner than when he left. I provide a safe, playful, and loving environment for your pet.
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life. Ever since I was a kid, I was jumping up to wash the dogs, train the dogs, walk the dogs- everything! I’m a full time college student. During the day, I will need to attend class. I also attend Natural Resources club on Saturday mornings. However, I am fully available during the rest of the week! I treat all pets with respect and kindness. I’ve had reactive dogs and extremely friendly dogs, so I’m well versed in any reactions pets may have to me. I can crate dogs, feed dogs, play with dogs, walk them, and even bathe them if needed!
About: I have experience with dogs and cats, young and old, easy and "difficult". I am very adept at walking and caring for dogs that can have a hard time with other dogs and/or humans. I'm also happy to help keep up any training routines, I'm pretty proficient in general dog training, but I know it always comes down to the individual dogs for what works best. I often have people remark about their pets who usually don't warm up to new people immediately taking a liking to me! I'm also totally respectful of animals who do need time to get to know new people and always meet them where they're at, so more than welcome to accommodate those who need more introduction time. I've had dogs in the family my whole life, and have lived with many cats as roommates, and I've loved them all. I've done extensive house sitting everywhere from big cities to rural areas, for periods of time as long as two months, caring for animals as well as the house and surrounding property. My schedule is very flexible so I can make sure I have plenty of time to give my full attention to your animal friends, I live in a sweet quiet neighborhood in Arcata near the bottoms that's great for regular walks, and I have a car and am happy to take pups out on more special adventures too! I always check in about what's best for each dog, and can tailor care around what their usual schedule is with walks and feeding, what kinds of play they like best, and any training routines I can help reinforce during our time together.

Great care and communication! She was very patient and kind with my kitten (he gets nervous around new people). It was great to see the progress he made while I was away through updates and pictures! I highly recommend Alexandra and would definitely book again!

Celia sent at least one photo every check-in, and was very professional and communicative. The questions she asked before confirming our booking helped show that she's an experienced, reliable pet-sitter. All this gave me much better peace of mind leaving my kitties with a new sitter for over a week!

Michelle is the GOAT! I could tell she was capable, skilled and passionate about her work, within minutes of meeting her. She asked great questions about my cats, their routines and preferences. I had complete peace-of-mind with them in her care. Michelle sent pictures each day that really captured the cats’ essences and personalities. Some of the pics made me laugh while also providing confirmation of how well they were doing. I cannot say enough great things about Michelle; her passion and professionalism are exemplary. She even left a kind note thanking me for allowing her to care for my cats. My first Rover experience exceeded my expectations and I will definitely ask Michelle to pet sit again. Thank you.
Paige looked in our kittehs for 3 days and was absolutely great. She was kind and personable when she visited ahead of them to meet them, and the girls received excellent care and lots of attention. She shared really cute photos of each visit. We will definitely rebook with her in the future! 🙂
