Dog Sitting Forestville

About: I'm often called Dr. Dolittle or the dog whisperer because the animals usually take to me very well. I've had a pet most of my life. I have always loved animals. I grew up with dogs, cats, I have also had birds and fish. I will treat you pet just like my own. I will surely treat your fur baby as you wish but I've known to spoil them a little. I no longer have dogs of my own, but I do keep my grand dogs on occasion. I'm very flexible when it comes to pet care. I do travel on occasions. I work my schedule around pet caring. I live alone and I do have grown children that visit and are very comfortable with dogs. I will care for your pet as my own. However, if you have special needs or instructions I will follow your request. I will also keep notes of behavior so you will know if you pet is happy, unhappy or doing something out of their usual behavior.

About: Growing up I’ve had all sorts of pets! Ranging from reptiles to aquatic animals. I started dog walking when I was a child by walking dogs that belonged to neighbors or nearby family. As I got older they would offer me to dog sit for them and it’s something I really enjoy. I work a part time, split shift job. Leaving me with free time in between shifts and on weekends if not working overtime, to play and care for the animals. I have a fenced back yard with outdoor leaches. I normally let pets roam the yard and I also take them for walks or to known fields and dog parks.

About: Hi! We are Lauren and Tinoi, two passionate and dependable pet lovers who believes every pet deserves to feel safe, happy, and loved even when you’re away. We’ve been caring for dogs for over 20 years, and at one point were the fur parents of a total of 9 dogs at once, so we're very comfortable managing multiple pets, different personalities, and varying energy levels. Our love for animals runs deep, and our (well Lauren's lol) long term dream is to retire on a few acres of land where we can rescue and care for as many dogs as possible. With us, your pet will get more than just the basics. We provide attentive care, fun walks, and plenty of affection to make sure their routine stays consistent and stress free. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, or just quiet companionship, we tailor our care to your pet’s unique needs and personality. We understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, so we prioritize clear communication and regular updates, including photos, to give you peace of mind. You can count on us to treat your pet like my own, with patience, kindness, and lots of love 🐾 Pet care fits naturally into our daily routine! Lauren works remotely from home and has a very flexible schedule, which allows her to give pets consistent attention throughout the day, not just during quick check-ins. Tinoi works a 9–5 schedule, and together we plan to share the care to ensure pets always have companionship, supervision, and support throughout the day. We are available for walks, playtime, feeding, and check ins, and can adjust our routine to meet each pet’s specific needs. Whether your pet needs frequent potty breaks, extra companionship, or a steady schedule, we’re able to provide that. We’re also flexible for boarding and pet sitting during both the week and weekends, making it easy to accommodate your schedule. Caring for pets isn’t something we fit in, it’s something we prioritize, so your pet will always receive reliable, attentive care 🐾 We provide care exclusively in our home, where pets enjoy a safe and comfortable environment with a fully fenced yard for supervised outdoor time. We also have two friendly dogs who can offer companionship, and we always take time to ensure proper, gradual introductions so all pets feel comfortable and relaxed. Lauren works from home, which allows her to provide consistent attention, care, and companionship throughout the day. Tinoi helps share in the care as well, and together we make sure each dog receives regular supervision, exercise, and affection. We do our best to maintain each pet’s normal routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, and rest. For safety and structure, we require that dogs are crate trained and comfortable being crated when we are away from home and overnight. This helps ensure they stay safe, secure, and well rested in a familiar routine. Our goal is always to create a calm, loving environment where every pet feels at home 🐾

About: Hi, I’m Rubi. If you book with us, both my wife Martha and I will be taking care of your pet. We truly love animals, not just as pets, but as family. Before accepting a new booking, we like to do a meet and greet. This helps make sure your pet feels comfortable with us and also gets along well with our two dogs. It’s important to us that everyone feels safe, calm, and at ease from the beginning. We know how it feels to leave your dog with someone else, because we would only trust people who care for them the same way we do. That’s exactly how we care for every pet that stays with us, like they are our own. We have two dogs at home, Oddie, our 5-year-old Cavapoo, and Toffy, our 15-year-old Bichon Frise and Maltese mix. They’ve taught us patience, attention, and how every dog has their own personality and needs. Your pet will be in a calm, loving home where they are allowed on the couch, can relax, play, and just feel comfortable. We go on walks, spend time with them, and make sure they are never just being watched, they are being truly cared for. I work mornings, and Martha works from home full time, so there is always someone present. Your pet will not be left alone or ignore. We believe in letting dogs be themselves. Every pet adjusts differently to a new environment, and we understand that it can sometimes be a little stressful at first. That’s why we ask about their routines, habits, and preferences, so we can keep things as familiar as possible and reduce that initial stress. Our goal is to make the transition gentle and help them feel safe, understood, and at home. We’ll also send updates and photos, because we know how important that is when you’re away. At the end of the day, we treat your pet the way we would want someone to treat ours, with love, patience, and real attention. I work in the morning at the moment, but Martha works from home full time so she will be available at all times if I am not around. We make sure to understand your pet's routines and habits, as well as any special needs they may have, such as medication or dietary restrictions, and provide plenty of toys and beds for the pets to use.

“Watching our kitties for the 2nd time! Nia continues to be a great sitter for us. I really appreciate her detailed check-ins (more questions is better than winging it), and pix and videos. Cats are happy, even if one of them tends to hide when we're not home :)”

About: Absolutely — the experience is strong. I’d make it sound a little more polished while keeping your personality and making you stand out on Rover: I’ve been caring for animals since I was 13, and I truly treat every pet like they’re my own. 🐾💙 I have experience with proper nutrition and feeding, exercise, long walks, basic puppy training, and caring for pets with different personalities and needs. I’ve also cared for sick pets that required insulin injections and medication, so I understand how important it is to follow their routines and pay attention to even the smallest changes. I’m also experienced with dogs who may display aggressive or reactive behaviors. I understand that aggression can be triggered by fear, stress, anxiety, or other situations, and I take the time to learn each dog’s triggers and boundaries to keep everyone safe and comfortable.

“Lilla was great for visiting with my two pups! She was flexible and quick to respond when I needed a sitter due to unexpected trip to attend a funeral. She communicated well and provided me pictures of her visits. She even cleaned up after one of my pups when she got sick in the house. I’d recommend her and will use her again. Thank you, Lilla, and sorry about the pup mess!”
