Pet Sitting in Forestville

“Michelle went above and beyond to make sure my very anxious dog would be comfortable with a new human in the house. She engaged her in lots of walks, play, and games, and sent frequent updates and photos. Michelle is a professional with a lot of love and understanding for dogs, great communication, and the care she provided was top notch. I'd highly recommend Michelle.”

“Melissa is wonderful! 2 of our 3 dogs have different reactivity issues, and have had some of their “stranger danger” get worse between the pandemic and moving to Sonoma County. It’s a big relief to see our dogs resocializing and looking forward to interacting with new people”

“Amanda definitely has a way with animals; she can even win the heart of our younger cat who tends to be more shy. She is an awesome communicator and provides timely updates and lots of photos, which make us feel comfortable when we are away.”

About: I know how much your pet means to you, because I’ve been there. I grew up with family dogs and later had an incredibly well-trained, super special dog of my own, Sug, for 9 years who was truly my best friend. Training, structure, and love were part of our everyday life, not just “extras.” Because of that experience, I’m very tuned in to pets’ body language, routines, and individual personalities. I’m patient, consistent, and genuinely enjoy reinforcing good habits while still making sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved. Whether it’s calm companionship, playtime, or sticking closely to your pet’s routine, I treat every animal like they’re my own. You can expect lots of attention, care, and respect for the bond you have with your pet because I know how important that trust is. 🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my routine! I work Monday–Friday, 9–5, but I’m able to come home during lunch for potty breaks, walks, and check-ins. Mornings, evenings, and nights are fully dedicated to your pet, so they’ll get plenty of attention, playtime, and affection outside of work hours. I also generally love to walk and hike in my free time. I’m great with routines and making sure pets feel comfortable and cared for throughout the day. Whether your pet needs a midday break, structured walks, or calm companionship, I’m happy to accommodate their needs and keep you updated along the way. 🐾 I care for pets by following their routine as closely as possible so they feel safe, comfortable, and relaxed. I take time to understand each pet’s personality, energy level, and any training or household rules before care begins. In my home or yours, pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, and affection, along with consistent potty breaks, walks, and playtime. I’m attentive to behavior cues and use positive reinforcement to maintain good habits and structure. Having trained and cared for my own dog for 9 years, I’m very comfortable with reinforcing training and providing calm, confident care. I make sure pets are never rushed and always feel secure, whether that means active play, quiet companionship, or sticking to a specific feeding and walking schedule. I’m also happy to provide updates so you can feel at ease while you’re away.

About: I’ve always been an animal lover and have cared for dogs, cats, and even horses over the years. I currently have two wonderful dogs—a 12-year-old senior and a lively two-year-old pup—both of whom I’ve raised since they were puppies. I also have a playful kitten, adding to my experience with pets of all ages. With plenty of hands-on experience, I understand the needs of animals at every stage of life and provide the same level of care and attention to every pet I look after. As a real estate agent, my schedule is flexible, allowing me to incorporate pet care seamlessly into my daily and weekly routine. Whether it’s stopping by for drop-in visits between showings or adjusting my day to meet a pet’s needs, I always make sure they get the attention, care, and companionship they deserve. I follow my client’s instructions to keep pets comfortable and cared for, including feeding, potty breaks, playtime, and any special needs. I ensure their routine stays consistent and provide updates for peace of mind.

“Holly clearly loves animals and was so good with my kitten! She shared pictures of him playing and getting a snuggle. I was very comfortable having her care for my fur baby 🥰”

About: Experienced pet sitter. Experience with reactive dogs. Happy to give your dog extra care and attention. Fenced in front and back yard. Must be okay with another friendly dog in the home. I typically do a morning walk after breakfast, and a nighttime walk after dinner. If a dog is staying with me, I usually avoid middle of the day walks as the pavement outside can get hot on warmer days. However I do have a fenced in yard and a deck, which is cooler in the middle of the day if they would like to explore. I have a fenced in yard, and a metal crate is your dog is used to crate training. I have a 5 year old lab/ Shepard mix who loves to play, but could also keep him separated if requested. I have plenty of toys but you are also welcome to bring any toys with you, put they may get lost under our deck! Dogs are welcome on the furniture and just about anywhere as long as they are properly trained not to potty on furniture!

About: I have been around animals all my life, particularly big dogs. My family has always had big dogs (Bernese Mountain dogs and labradors), but I share the love with all sizes! Helping train our family dogs has also given me confidence not only in handling animals, but also the knowledge to ensure safe engagement with them and others. No animal is "problematic" they all just require (and deserve) specific attention and patience. I personally enjoy the company of animals, so it's a win-win if I get to hang out with your pet! I'm an active person and like to invite my furry friends along for fun too. I'll run with them to get out their zoomies, play fetch for hours, or go on nice long strolls along the neighborhood. I enjoy getting outside as much as the dog does, so this is a mutually beneficial experience! I work from home, typically schedule my own meetings, and have a flexible schedule! I enjoy getting out of my house to go on walks of my own, so its even better to have some furry company! I understand that life happens and sometimes we need extra support, even last minute. So I'm here to help out with all the things life throw our way. When interacting and engaging with animals, especially new ones, patience and slowness are my virtues. I understand animals and that you're doing your best for them. Whether they just need some love while you're away, or you want me to reinforce training that you're working on, I take your needs very seriously.

“Rachael goes above and beyond in every way. She was amazing with our cats: proactive, detail-oriented, and incredibly thoughtful. Her detailed check ins gave me so much peace of mind knowing my heart cat was getting all the love she needs. She’s also so personable I’d honestly invite her to pet sit me just so we could hang out 😂 Highly recommend!”

About: I've taken care of both dogs and cats for the past 15 years. I have experience caring for senior dogs and cats. I also have experience with horses. I am currently working Monday through Thursday. I am available Friday, Saturday and Sundays during the day. I may also have some evening availability depending on my schedule. At this time, I am unable to accept pets in my home. However, I am available to come to your house and take care of your pet.

“Chantel was great with our pup. She was on time every day and took really good care of him. We truly appreciated her coming over to spend time with Buford.”

“Jaimie was so helpful with dog care during our wedding! We had non-standard instructions and were not able to be on our phones but knew Jaimie had it all figured out out!”

About: I’ve been in the horse training and care industry for roughly 20 years and have learned an immense amount about animal care over that time. I have worked with all different species, breeds, sizes, and temperaments and I am willing to take on any challenge. My schedule is currently part time and scattered so I have a lot of availability and flexibility to care for any and all animals. I also have nearly fully availability on the weekends. I will not be offering services in my home but will be available to travel to your home and I will respect your house rules.

“Marley did an amazing job taking care of my two cats! I would definitely trust her to cat sit for us again! She is extremely communicative and responds quickly, which we really appreciate. We also know that the cats really liked her, and she knew how to earn their trust. Thanks Marley!!!”

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 a devoted animal person. I have had dogs and cats my whole life, and am experienced with puppies as well as senior dogs. I currently work remotely and have a flexible schedule. I am available for dog walking weekdays and some weekends. Open to special requests and needs. My home has a large doggie door which opens to large fenced in yard. Dogs come in and out as they please. Lots of play toys and special attention.

About: I have loved animals like family as long as I can remember. And feel I have a special connection with them and them with me because of my calm and centered energy. Animals communicate and respond through peoples energy and I feel its how they know to feel safe. I care for dogs, cats, bunnies, birds, lizards etc. And am happy to answer any questions on all. I work for myself so I have a flexible schedule and can usually accommodate most schedule needs of pet parents. I typically make morning and evening rounds and unless I am out of town I am available 7 days a week. I take pride in my attention to detail and upon first introduction I try and get as much information as possible about a clients home and needs pertaining to their pets and what they are used to so that I can do my best to maintain that schedule and activity.

“Betsy was great! My kitty isn’t very friendly but doesn’t seem scared of Betsy at all, so that is really comforting. She is very responsive and sent a picture. Next time we are out of town we will definitely be using Betsy to check on our kitty!”

“An excellent experience for us and our two large doggos. One of our dogs us recovering from a major surgery and she had no problem handling allot of special instructions. Andrea kept us posted with photos through out the day, where we could see the dogs were happy and cared for :)”

“Angelina was prompt with her responses, understood our situation, and communicated clearly about our pet's requirements. Looking forward to many more sits with her!”
