Pet Sitting in Fortuna

“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.”

“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!”

Craig L.

“Kristina watched our two pups while we were away for the holidays. Our pups loved her and we were so grateful for her thoughtful care while we were away and missing them. She sent updates and photos every time she saw them. We will definitely reach out to her next time we leave town 😊”

About: Junny and Jomhel are a tag team duo who happen to be professional photographers too! With us, you not only get National Association of Pet Sitters-certified care, but you also get high quality photo updates of your buddy to go along with it! We love looking at your little one as much as you do. We understand that the needs of every creature (humans-included) can be different and so we always aim to learn from you how to best care for your loved one. We encourage you to share as much detail as you can in your pet bios or in your direct communications with us. If we sound like a good fit for you, let's talk! Junny and Jomhel work in multimedia and graphic design and so when one of them is out in the field, the other is working from home. If your pet does best with 24/7 companionship, we can provide that. Please notify us if this is something you'd like. The safety and well-being of your pet and your home is our primary priority. You may notice that we are thorough in our initial communications with you to ensure that we are navigating your home with respect. Don't be shy! Tell us how we can do that! Outside of that, we follow the NAPPS-certified best practices for pet sitting, which you can find on their website.

“Sam was able to fit my pup into his schedule pretty last minute, which was a life saver for me. This was my first time using Rover & I’m glad that I was able to book with Sam. Had a quick meet & greet the day prior that left me feeling like my pup Pickle was in good hands. Sam was very communicative about what him & my pup did during the 2 drop-in visits today. Overall, a great experience & I will book with Sam next time I have to leave my fur baby alone again!”

About: I've been taking care of dogs my entire life. I have experience with large, medium, and small dogs. I also have experience with rescues that have special needs. I also experience with puppies as well as senior care. I’m happy to specialize each experience for max comfort for your pup. I have a remote job and am flexible with scheduling around your pups needs. There are times when I am unavailable but I will always have any walks, visits or day cares scheduled accordingly . I have a corgi mix of my own that goes on walks and potty breaks at a regular schedule. I have a fenced yard and a friendly corgi mix to keep any pups company. I do not have a crate but if provide one I have no problem if that is better for your pup.

“Melissa was great! She followed through and communicated very well upon each visit with comments and photos. My cat runs away from strangers, and upon meeting him, she immediately sat down to appear less threatening. He stopped and watched her. She is adaptable and intuitively knows how to be with animals.”

“Maria did such a great job taking care of my two cats. I give them lots of attention, and I know they got plenty of love while I was gone. Everything was perfect when I came back, and I already have her booked for another trip!”

Elaine S.

“Miranda did a fantastic job! When we got back, our cats seemed very relaxed and she kept their litter area very tidy as well. Miranda even made sure to take photos and make “report cards” as well. Very happy we hired her and will definitely do so again in the future!”

For boarding in house I currently live in a RV on a beautiful property with a river behind it with my kitty oscar. There is a main house where we train and raise dogs! So if your open to that then pet boarding with me would be great for you!

About: I take care of many dogs and have had them at my house or stay at their owner’s house. Either way I am very comfortable with all sorts of animals. I have taken care of goats to bunnies, dogs in diapers and some in wheelchairs with love and expertise and compassion. I am currently not working and have lots of love and time for your fur babies. Dogs bring me a lot of joy. I also really love walking so I can exercise your dogs anytime. I have a fenced yard and lots of space for animals. I also have a corral if the dog needs to be locked us at night.

About: As a Great Pyrenees owner and animal lover, animal safety is a top priority. I have been caring for animals since I was 10 years old and it is something I plan on doing for the rest of my life! I am currently very available and have a flexible schedule due to all of my classes being online this semester. I’m happy to set up meet and greets beforehand to get to know your pooch 🐶 I have worked with animal shelters and dog boarding facilities alike to improve upon my animal caretaking skills. This has provided me with a strong foundation as I continue to learn more and more everyday!

About: My family always had dogs growing up so they hold an important place in my heart. I have experience with small, medium, and large breeds. I have extensive dogsitting and dog walking experience, having dogsat all through high school and college for different families and needs. Cattle dogs, little dogs, doodles, labs, pits, etc., I have worked with them all. I have a full time job during the weekdays so I want to help care for pets during the weeknights and weekends! A good evening walk to get out energy before bed or any time on the weekends! Unfortunately my cat doesn’t like guests so I would care for your pet in their own home or out on walks. I am a big proponent of boundaries with pets; they know what they like and what they’re comfortable with, so I make sure to be patient, kind, and loving in my communication with them, and do not push them into scenarios they’re uncomfortable with (unless it’s for their safety/health.) Every pet is a friend to me and I’m excited to meet yours.

About: I've always felt proud of my ability to get along with all kinds of creatures. Growing up, I was the kid who would petsit for all my friends' families. Nowadays, I'm the proud mama of a spunky Chihuahua, a beautiful tuxedo kitty, and a quirky bearded dragon. I work from home with a flexible schedule. I'd love to have an extra reason to get out of the house. Plus, walking is my favorite way to exercise. Just like us humans, no two dogs or cats are the same. So when it comes to any special needs, I always appreciate having clear directions to follow.

About: I’ve had large & small dogs all my life and love having them at home with me & my dog Pippa who is friendly and playful. I’m currently not working so I can devote more time to dog walking and care. I can do neighborhood walks, beach walks or dog parks. I have a fenced back yard & a friendly dog to keep your dog company. I have 2 different sized dog crates and can use those if needed and lots of toys.

About: I owned dogs for about ten years and started walking and watching other peoples’ dogs about 6 years ago. I have also walked and fostered dogs through Sequoia Humane Society.I have provided walking, boarding, house sitting, and some cat care. I love taking dogs out on hikes and staying active. I work full time but can provide walks during the mornings before noon on the weekdays. I can provide overnight care and house sitting on weekends. I have a fenced yard at home. We have one friendly dog at home. I am always very careful and considerate when caring for other people’s pets and homes.

About: Hello there! My name is Julia. I have always had animals and I have also been pet sitting the past 10 years. I know how nerve racking it is to leave your precious furry family member with someone new! I have a cat and dog of my own and they are my world. Thankfully, they stay with my family when I pet sit (which they love). I know how important it is to find a good person to care for your pet. During my stay you can expect me to take care of feedings, replenish water, and administer any medications. I give them lots of affection, positive reinforcement and love! My goal is to make your pet feel like they are on a fun staycation with a new friend. I’m also vigilant about safety and security. For dogs I give them two walks a day. I have experience with all types of dogs and trained with basic dog training/handling. For cats I give them lots of pets, play with them and clean the litter box daily. In terms of house sitting I’m happy to take in mail and water plants. This should go without saying but I make sure to clean up after myself and keep things clean. I will respect your space. Basically, I love animals. I love meeting new furry friends and I take this job seriously. While having lots of fun!! I am available every day besides Monday and Tuesday as of now. Other than that I am very flexible! I am willing to meet your needs and if something changes i’ll do my best to accommodate if possible. When I take care of your animal I am extra careful about safety and security. Always making sure doors and exits are shut and locked, being mindful if there is a pool in the backyard, cleaning up after any mess I make… wiping down counters and sweeping up crumbs. I also am very careful to administer the right food and any medications or special needs they may have. When we are just hanging out I give them lots attention, praise, play and snuggles. Always being attentive to their needs individually.
