“Johannesburg was amazing all the way around! She was available I'm very short notice and was flexible with the meet and greet. She proved herself to be trustworthy, reliable, honest, kind and caring. Don't hesitate one moment to book her!”

About: My farm store experience and lifelong animal-raising background, combined with insights from seasoned pet professionals, set me apart as a uniquely qualified, compassionate pet sitter. Balancing school and raising two sons, I cherish pet sitting as a flexible way to care for animals, complementing my existing animal-care routine and nurturing nature. I care for all animals like they're mine, providing a safe environment, while being respectful of property, rules, and requirements, ensuring a stress-free experience, always.
“We had Kate take care of our kitties recently and she did a great job! Her communication is fantastic, and she's very responsive, which is what you want in a pet sitter. She followed our instructions and didn't hesitate to reach out if there was a question (another good trait for a pet sitter). We plan on using her services again, and you should too!”


About: Hello! I am a recent college graduate looking for a side hustle, and am an avid animal lover! I have over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I currently live on a farm where I have become knowledgeable in caring for a variety of animals and how to be attentive to individual animal needs. Growing up surrounded by all kinds of pets has taught me the importance of patience, consistency, and compassion, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. I am responsible and strive to provide a safe, loving, and calm environment so you can feel confident your pets are happy and well cared for while you’re away! I currently work part-time at an online job. My online job allows me to set my own hours, so I am very flexible and will be available most days of the week. I am unable to bring pets to my own home but am more than willing to drive to your home to take care of your pet! At your home I will make sure to provide your pet with plenty of love and attention, and I will be responsible about tending to your pets needs!
About: I have always been an animal lover since childhood and have taken care of a variety of pets of all sizes! I've helped raise puppies, taken care of senior dogs, and helped train good walking, bathing, and bathroom habits. Most animals respond very well to me. Also being a bigger person I have no trouble dealing with larger dogs. Very experienced in all areas of pet care. I am a college student at College of the Redwoods pursuing my degree in Social Work. I have a free summer and would love to spend time with your pets! Weekends or evenings are not a problem for house sitting. I love to spend my time with animals giving them quality care and attention. I am more than happy to watch your pets while you are away on vacation or gone for the day. I can do drop bys or overnights depending on your preference and your animals needs. I have a large fenced yard that is great for dogs if you need doggy daycare. I have reliable transportation to get to and from. I can take them on walks in your neighborhood or go to a local dog park if you prefer. Very open to working with what is best for your animal. I have my own dogs at home but will leave them with my sister while caring for your animal(s) unless you would like the socializing. We have two friendly larger male dogs that love to meet new dogs if you are interested in doggy day care. Our home has a large size dog door for pets to access the house at their convenience.
About: I've owned dogs and helped in their care since I was young. I've pet sat for friends and neighbors as well. My current dog has been trained by me to be a service dog, so I'm good with puppy training, as well as patience. I also take care of our elderly pugs grooming needs, such as nail trimming and coat brushing. I am currently at home often, so I'll have plenty of time to take care of your pet. I'll be able to make many runs over to check on your pet, or be able to stay with little to get in the way. If there ever is anything in the way, I will always be straight forward and communicate. I have a fenced in backyard and 3 dogs who are all very friendly. I never leave them alone and will always have an eye on them, so nothing goes wrong. I'm able to dog proof areas that may have problems, and keep anything dangerous well put of reach. I'm also able to have secure spaces incase dogs need to destimulate away from others. They will never be left alone unless I'm strictly given instruction.
“Thanks for taking care of our cats when we were out. Heather sent us updates which made us miss our little cats a little less. Will definitely recommend Heather to take care of your pets.”

“Megan is amazing! She has such a sweet and sincere way about her that our kitties (and turtle) instantly trusted her. We keep asking her to do one more thing and she was super nice about it. She even did helpful things we didn't ask her to! We would ask her to sit for us again in an instant.”

“Annalee is the best sitter. She’s attentive to JZ’s needs and is very thorough in keeping us informed regarding her daily care. She’s definitely going to be at the top of our list of sitters. Thank you Annalee.”

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 a former dog trainer at Dog Gone Amazing training and boarding in Reno Nv for the past 4 and half years. I moved to Eureka to have a new start and would love to continue to work with animals. I’ve worked with many different breeds and many different temperaments. I currently have two dogs of my own and a cat as well. I’ve grown up with all sorts of animals, such a horses, chickens, sled dogs and cats. I would love to continue working with new pets and their owners! I currently have 2 dogs and a cat. I’ve also worked as a kennel tech at a boarding/training facility and then moved on to become a trainer at that same facility. I always recommend crates for any situation but in my own home I would crate all dogs and rotate based on how they all get along. Feeding in the crate or separate from other animals. Daily walks or hikes depending on the animal. Cats would get daily enrichment. If weather doesn’t permit or the animal isn’t able to get that day I’d offer mental enrichment such as lick mats, food puzzles, play, training, etc.
“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!”
About: Not your average dog caretaker! I am a certified professional dog trainer & handler extraordinaire. Many folks on this platform will get your dog out for a "walk" and barely cover half a mile in the whole 30 minutes-- not me! I will make sure the needs of your dog are met, whatever they may be. I will maximize the booking for exercise, engagement, potty/food needs, and love. Your dog will look forward to our visits! I have worked closely with dogs in a variety of capacities- sled dogs, detection dogs, foster dogs, you name it! They are what I'm passionate about and providing quality care is my utmost priority. I work from home and have a highly flexible schedule, so I will always be available to tend to the needs of your pet(s). I put the needs of the animals I care for above all else. With any booking- you will get updates at least once a day, with photos and an update of how much fun your pet is having! In addition to Rover's offerings, I offer pack excursions! For an excursion, your pet will be picked up, taken on a hike/run/walk of 2-6 miles, as appropriate. I offer these as pack walks, so it's likely your dog will be with at least one other pup. Meet and greets are essential before booking due to this. Walks are adjusted to meet the needs of the dogs in the pack, and packs are put together based on similar needs. After 2-4 hours, depending on the excursion, your dog will be returned home toweled off and tired! Training can be arranged for dogs with either 3+ day long stays, or repeat day care/walkers. I specialize in "problem" behaviors, such as separation anxiety, destruction, shyness, etc. and would love to work with you and your pet on such issues. I make my own dog treats and enjoy sharing them with the pets I look after, if allowed by the owner. I also do pet-friendly cakes, so let me know if you have a special event coming up! I currently have a highly flexible schedule. Dog care is already integrated into my every day life. Literally- it's almost my entire life! Reach out and let's see if I can provide what you need! I have a sweet medium sized dog in my home that will befriend yours if they want, or casually do her own thing. I happily crate dogs or give them a safe space to occupy for down time/bed time. I don't typically allow guest dogs on furniture but have ample memory foam beds across the house. I provide LOTS of engagement and exercise, and some training on request.
