“We had an absolutely wonderful experience with Junny and Johmel. Junny did a meet-and-greet before our trip, asked thoughtful and thorough questions, and followed all of our instructions perfectly. We had them watch our two large pitbulls in our home while we were on a trip for 4 nights. We received amazing photos and detailed updates twice a day, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. They checked in proactively with any pertinent details, were flexible and accommodating with our flights in case of delays, and left our home exceptionally clean. We couldn’t have asked for better care for our dogs—highly recommend and we would absolutely use them again!”

“Lizzie was amazing with our 2 beagles that don't like to be left alone! She came the day before to meet the pups and got along great with them. She was prompt and reliable. We were only gone a few hours but when our appointment ran a little over, Lizzie was very accommodating. I would highly recommend Lizzie to anyone in need of pet care services!”

About: I grew up on a ranch with dogs, cats, horses, and cattle, and my boyfriend who I live with has had dogs his whole life. We love dogs of all size and ages and hope to adopt more in the future. Our schedules line up to where someone would be home with your pup 95% of the time! We offer daily walks and adventures if that’s what your pup needs as well, and lots of toys of course. We have a large fenced yard that your pup can play and run around in. We have a dog as well that they can play with outside or inside. We have crate that your pup can use if that’s what they need.

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.

“Mark was super helpful when we contacted him for same day help when my mom ended up having to spend the night in the hospital. He was helpful, professional, and super nice. He was great with Mom’s pets. Thank you, Mark!”

“Thank you Sadie! I could really tell she gave my dog attention and love while I was away. She also sent pictures and updates the whole time. I really loved the communication we had. Will definitely be booking with her again.”

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!

“My boys were so happy when we got home from our trip ? I could tell they had been well taken care of. Heather was amazing to work with from the moment we met. She is friendly and responsive She went above and beyond with her communication, sending pictures (she’s a natural photographer), leaving the house spotless and she even left some gifts for us when we got home ? ☕️ . I would definitely have her sit for Koji and Junior again ???❤️”

“Tyler watched our two Beagles for the day - I have only great things to say and highly recommend his service! He was very accommodating, professional, and responsible. Tyler took the extra time to understand their needs and was actively responsive to our check ins during the stay for peace of mind :) Additionally, he took great care of the house in terms of cleaning up after himself and the dogs. Thank you so much again, Tyler. 10/10 would hire again. Our little family appreciates you! ❤️”

“Zalie was amazing! This was our first time leaving our furr child with a stranger and also the first time using Rover. We booked only a few days before we had to leave and Zalie was very accommodating to set up the meet and greets and go over logistics before we left. She was very professional and thorough and we felt great about leaving our pup with her. We have a very high energy border collie/ cattle dog that has specific exercise needs. Even in the rain, she took him on walks, to play fetch, and played a lot of mental exercises inside. She sent many updates and photos while we were gone and it felt like we were never wondering if he was having a good time. We 100% recommend Zalie !”

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: Hi, I am Khloey! Currently setting my home up to be running a dog training program. I would love to take advantage of this time to get to know the animals and owners in my surrounding and hopefully build a great list of regulars! I have owned dogs my entire life from puppies to older doggos and a wide variety of breeds and behaviors. Currently I own a great Pyrenese mix and an American staffy of my own. My dogs are very well trained and our yard has two compartments so the dogs will not interact if that is what you would like. We allow dogs in our home and provide a nice quiet space for them to relax and unwind out of the heat. I hope to see your pups soon thank you for stopping by! At the moment my life consists of going on walks with my children to get out of the house and get some exercise. I would love to transform this into something to help promote happier and healthier dogs in my area. Being home everyday makes me a great candidate to ensure your best friend is safe and sound even when you’re busy! A day in my house as a dog: released from kennel to the yard to have a morning romp around the nice fenced in yard. Having a great drink of water as I pass the auto watering station. (Depending on instructions) a morning feed and rest in the sun for roughly an hour then some interactive play and enrichment (time frame is dependent on weather conditions). Once your doggo is tired and ready to take a long nap we head inside where doggos usually lay in the open baby gate area (also compatible for large and XL dogs) or the kennel whichever they prefer. Roughly 1-2 hours later potty break and time outside durning this time is when I would bathe your puppy if requested. After a lovely bath a 15-30 min walk and enrichment. Once returned home the night time routine begins with a good romp around the yard, enrichment and then quiet time with dinner. One last potty break before bed and that’s a day as your pup in our home. Thank you for trusting me in caring for your pup!

About: Experienced and flexible. Well reviewed! Happy to provide references. I volunteered at Thundering Paws Animal Sanctuary all through my High School years in Austin TX. There isn't much I can't handle but I'm also aware dogs can have different personalities and different needs. I'd love to cater to your pet specifically! I am 100% self employed, and a part time stay-at-home pet/ plant dad! I'd love to make time to care for your pets as well! Obviously your pets are top priority but please let me know what I can do to keep your home safe and sound as well :)

About: I’ve grown up with animals! Specifically kitties and dogs but I love them all. I have had experience with some farm animals as well. I would love to meet more animals and build more connections! I have plenty of references. I currently am looking for a full time job so my schedule is open for the most part. I am available for overnight stays as well in your house. I take care of your animals by giving them the attention they need and the snuggles they want. I love bonding with animals and getting to cuddle with different creatures!

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.

“Stari was amazing with our dogs. We have one difficult dog and Stari was great with her. She stayed and watched our house, took the dogs out on walks around the neighborhood and to the beach, and most importantly took really good care of our dogs. She sent photos and they were always content and happy! I would highly recommend her to watch your pets! Thanks Stari”

About: I started pet-sitting in my adolescence and have continued pet-sitting for friends, family, neighbors, and roommates for over twenty years. I've cared for dogs of all sizes, cats, birds, lizards, snakes, fish, rabbits, and rodents. I've administered medication, cared for newborn animals, and have even had to safely evacuate two dogs and two kittens from a home this past summer where I was pet-sitting due to wildfire. I've always adored animals and have gotten my bachelors degree in zoology and masters in wildlife conservation ecology. I'd love the opportunity to care for your beloved animals! My schedule is currently flexible and I will update my availability as my calendar fills. Feel free to reach out to check if your scheduling needs align! Dog walking and enrichment: I'm happy to take your dog out on walks (or jogs), let your dog out in your yard, or provide food and water on visits as needed. House/pet-sitting: I have a friendly five-year-old dog that is good with other dogs and cats! I'm happy to do overnight stays if your dog(s) or cat(s) are okay with her accompanying me. If this is not an option, please still reach out and may be able to accommodate depending on the dates and length of stay. That said, my dog is playful and respects when other dogs are not in play-mode. She's happy to be around dogs of all ages.
