About: I provide reliable and loving care for your pets, whether through house sitting, drop-in visits, or dog walks. Your furry friends will be well-fed, cared for, and given plenty of attention, all tailored to your standards and beyond. I’m a dog person at heart, but I also love caring for cats. Many friends and clients trust me to care for their pets while they’re away, and I also offer house-sitting services, including plant care, mail collection, and general home upkeep. If boarding is needed, my cozy home in Forestville features a fenced yard, ideal for small to medium-sized dogs. I live close to a park that’s perfect for daily walks and outdoor play. Send me a message—I’d love to meet you and your beloved pets and ensure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away! Updated 1-22-2025 I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide attentive and reliable care for your pets. Most of my freelance work is done from home, so I’ll often be around to keep your pets company. When I’m out running errands or completing local handyman tasks, I ensure your pets’ needs are fully taken care of before I leave and as soon as I return. My availability includes mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends, giving me plenty of time to tailor my care to your pets’ routines. Let me know what works best for you and your furry friends! I prioritize safety and trust by closely following each pet parent's care instructions and maintaining a calm, secure environment. In clients' homes, I treat the space respectfully and ensure doors, windows, and surroundings are safe for your cat, dog, or other pets. My goal is to provide a stress-free experience, giving both pets and owners peace of mind. I make sure to follow instructions and feed them on time according to your schedule. I also often take dogs on walks and potty brakes and play fetch with them if they like that as well.

About: I love all animals! I have experience with dogs, cats, cows, reptiles (mainly snakes), chickens, ducks, rodents (rats, mice, hamster), rabbits, sheep, goats, birds, etc! I love connecting with each animal in their unique ways, I truly believe we have a lot to learn from these compassionate beings. It's my pleasure to make them feel safe, loved, well fed and fully exercised! I don't have a lot of experience with very old animals but I'm willing to learn what their specific and special needs are. I have had older dogs in my life so I do have a basic grasp on their needs but everyone is unique! I mostly work remote from home with the occasional pop into the warehouse once or twice a week. My schedule can be pretty flexible for the most part! I'll gladly learn the typical schedule you have with your pet so that they feel their care is secure and stable. Time of feeding, length of walk, treats, etc. Just let me know and I'll do my best to make you both feel considered and cared for. I'm not currently doing doggy day care or boarding. Eventually I will offer that service again! I might be open to it on a case by case basis.

About: I am experienced with animals of all sizes and temperaments. I was previously fear-free certified from working in a Veterinarian Clinic and I am more than willing to help accommodate to your pets needs. I have experience walking, bathing, feeding, and administering medication for pets. I am currently available at most times of the day to help with drop-ins or walks! Whether your pet needs someone to stay with them for a little or get some energy out for a long walk, I’m here! I treat my clients pets and home like my own!

About: I am a fish biologist, but love all animals. I am new to Rover, but my friends and coworkers regularly rely on me to care for their pets. I have cared for dogs with special needs, such as epilepsy, senior dogs and puppies. I have done basic dog training courses with my 30 lb tripod dog and volunteered walking dogs at my local shelter. I will treat your furry family member with love and care! I work remotely from 8-4:30 pm most weekdays, so I’m available to provide attention and fun for your pet most of the day. I usually go to the office on Wednesdays and Thursdays, but I may be able to accommodate if your pet cannot be alone very long. I am an active person and would love to take your dog to the park or beach or for walks on trails, if they do well in those settings. If your dog is lower energy, I can match that energy too! I am excellent at following directions and will follow your pets normal schedule. I am observant and will pay attention to your dog’s well-being. You can expect clear and consistent communication if you trust me with your furry family member. House sitting: I am happy to take your dog for multiple walks a day and accommodate special food or medication schedules. I am a respectful, clean, non-smoker, in my 30s. I work from home on weekdays, so would just require internet access.

“Jamie is really great! A dog whisperer. Our reactive dog warms up to her right away. She was able to hold his leash and pet him on first meeting. Awesome! Our dog will definitely continue having walks with her. She’s going to be his new walking person for sure.”

We look forward to seeing her again for walks, drops in and some future planned over night house visits. Eileen F”

About: My mom started me young in 4H and my sister became a Vet. I have had animals of all kinds my entire life. I am now known as a ‘dog person’ competing Nationally in agility with my English Springer Spaniels. I currently have 3 dogs that I compete in all AKC performance sports from agility to tracking. I have groomed springers professionally for both pet and the conformation ring. I also have 1 cat, 6 chickens and 2 llamas (Dolly & Pearl). I am an excellent dog trainer and love all breeds. I had a cat that was insulin shot dependent so I know how to give drugs. I have years of puppy and kitten experience. Any of your animals will love me and I am a magnet to them all. You can feel confident in leaving your loved ones in good hands! I am comfortable with “ bully breeds” as well as intact animals. If your pet stays for 7 plus days I offer a bath on pick up morning for extra price dependent on size of dog. Full grooming services are available at end of stay for slightly reduced rate. I am recently retired and available anytime. I can be available midweek or weekends for daytime or overnight care. I can do long walks anytime of day. I have a fully fenced large safe property where your pet can be separate from mine and stay inside in a temperature controlled studio with TV. My yard is large allowing for off leash romping and I live adjacent to a big vineyard for on leash long walks.

“Ashley was wonderful and reliable. She absolutely saved my life taking on a week of dog walks when my regular walker went out of town. She sent updates and took my greyhound on great treks that def took the whole time I had booked. I think my Izz may be in love.”

About: I grew up with dogs, cats, rabbits, horses and llamas. I started my own little animal care business when I was 13 years old. I would take care of all the neighborhood animals from guinea pigs, to cats, to sheep, to horses. From then on I have taken care of animals in my home, gone to others to stay over, and also have worked in a dog boarding facility in the past as well. I have worked as a veterinary technician as well and have raised dogs from the time they were puppies to senior dogs. I am very knowledgable about basic dog training. We have a cat and a dog in our home now. We have baby gates to keep dogs away from the cat if your dog is not cat friendly and he has a little room he can be in when I am dog sitting in my home. I am currently a stay at home mom with two little boys. My dog loves having dog play dates and we have a wonderful fenced in backyard to keep them safe. Our home is open inside as well to dogs to be in. We do not have any scheduled requirements during the day so we are available all week long to be open for dog sitting, dog walking, or just checking in on your pets. I have a fenced in yard for them to play in, as well as a wonderful home they will be allowed in as well. We have plenty of dog toys that can be put out and indoor/outdoor water bowls available.

About: I began my seriously joyous devotion to animals at the age of 11, as an SF ZOO volunteer in the barnyard, where I learned to care for a variety of animals, from miniature horses to coyotes to parrots, and more. I have continued to attract rescuing wayward beasts of all kinds, providing them with excellent love and care. I am a natural nurturer, the animals feel at home with me wherever we are. I have worked as a cat, dog and multi-pet sitter for many years, up until now, only through personal referrals. I am a kundalini yoga teacher, craniosacral and polarity therapist. My son is grown and I have a very flexible schedule. I love to get out with the dogs for long walks and if they don’t mind the car, we might get to the beach. I love nature, the outdoors and finding out how best to care for your animal so that they don’t miss you too much. I absolutely appreciate forming long term client relationships so that you and your animals can relax and have fun. I am self-employed and can accommodate your needs. When I am hired for a pet-sit, this is my focus and priority. I can schedule all my other work around it. I have a lovely minimalist home for your pet, a small garden and plenty of leashed walking in the woods space for regular exercise. If a dog is ok with car rides, I’m happy to take them to the beach.
