Cat Sitting Graton

“Wonderful experience from meet and greet to the day of a drop in visit. Our dogs were well taken care of and Emilia gave plenty of updates. We will definitely use again.”

About: Walks through Armstrong Redwoods are a favorite activity. I have a large yard and a dog friendly house. I have a couple of years experience working in a veterinary clinic giving me experience medicating animals, including giving injections. I have a pool for dogs who love to swim! I was a volunteer and puppy raiser for Canine Companions for Independence back in the mid to late 1980's, and a Puppy Petter for Assistance Dog Institute in the early 2000's. I've also kept busy with boarding in my home for friends and acquaintances. I love dogs!! I have Sundays and Mondays off from my full time job, but I can fit in a nice walk after 4 pm most other days. When I have someone's dog, they get my full attention; we play, exercise, snuggle. My focus is providing an enriching experience for your dog .

“Ashleigh took great care of my 3-year old greyhound mix and my 18-year old house cat, while I took the my kids on a 5-day camping trip. Ashleigh left a sweet note behind as well. I’ll definitely book Ashleigh for pet care in the future.”

“Holly did a great job watching Gray. He visits were always on the expected time and I loved getting different photos of Gray sometimes getting some special pets and love.”

“Melissa did a wonderful job taking care of my two cats. One of them is generally shy, but after just a day Melissa gained his trust and he came out to play. She was gentle, and thorough, remembering all of their needs. She brought packages that were delivered, even remembering to put them out of reach as the cats like to chew on the plastic bags! Melissa also took great care of our home, taking out garbage and watering plants. I had forgot to tell her about a Basil plant, but she saw it was dry and asked me if I wanted it watered. I was really amazed by her care and attention to detail.”

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: Dogs & cats have been in my life since I was born! Growing up, I’ve taken care of so many dogs, cats, and even geckos. These lovely pets including my own, my neighbors, & my friends! I’m currently working Sunday and Monday mornings and in school part time on Tuesdays and Thursdays while focused on saving up money to further pay for my college education, so I have plenty of time available around those days to take care of your lovely pets! ♥️ My Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays are completely free and I’ll be happy to keep your furry friend company, on a walk, or check in on them while you are away. :) I have four (some very shy) cats and a dog at home, so while I am unable to bring cats into my own home, I will be able to stay full-time in your home with your fur babies and provide them with all the care they need, while they’re comfortably in their home-environment.

“Michael went above and beyond with our dog and cat. He was very quick to respond and did a perfect job following our instructions for feeding times, medications, and outside breaks. We will definitely use Michael’s services again in the future.”

Makayla S.

“Amanda is amazing as usual. This is our 7th or 8th time booking with her. She is always quick to respond to our requests, flexible and pays wonderful attention to our two cats. She plays with them, understands their personality differences, and she provides a detailed report each time of their behaviors and whether they are eating/drinking. She always sends multiple photos, too. Thank you Amanda! You’re a true gem.”

Miriam S.

“Laura was super responsive and helpful! Confetti is not always comfortable around new people so the fact she came out for Laura is a big plus!”

Brianna S.

“Andrea is the best! She is so caring and attentive when she looks after our two cats, and they are always so content with her. Couldn’t recommend someone more highly!”

About: I'm a lifelong animal lover with a flexible schedule and a deep love for exploring the outdoors. I raised my dog from a puppy and it was one of the most rewarding experiences of my life! I specialize in active walks and hikes for dogs who love to get out and explore- I like to work with a single dog at a time so I can really get to know them and develop strong communication with them. I know all the best dog-friendly spots in the area: Laguna de Santa Rosa, Riverfront Regional Park, Taylor Mountain, and the local bike trails. For older dogs, I'm happy to take it easy with gentle neighborhood strolls. I've also managed complicated medication routines for dogs in treatment, so I'm comfortable with pets who need extra care, need drop in visits, and I love cats too! I use positive reinforcement techniques and am comfortable with pets of most energy levels and temperaments. Whether your pup needs a trail adventure, your senior dog needs patient care, your cat needs some company, or you just need a reliable check-in, I'd love to help. My schedule is flexible, so I can accommodate last-minute requests, early mornings, or evenings—whatever works best for you and your pet. I know how important it is to find someone you can trust, my doggo was my world. I would love to be there for your pet! I work from home as a freelancer and can accommodate most requests on weekdays, sometimes I can also pick up work on weekends. I walk everyday, rain or shine and love to bring happy dogs on the trail! In My Home: I treat every pet in my care as if they were my own. I maintain a calm, safe environment and follow your established routines as closely as possible—from feeding schedules to playtime preferences. For dogs, I provide plenty of exercise through walks or hikes suited to their energy level, and I'm always attentive to their comfort and body language. I keep pets secure with leashed walks, and I'm vigilant about potential hazards both indoors and on trails. For pets on medication or special diets, I follow instructions carefully and keep detailed notes. I also provide regular updates with photos so you can enjoy peace of mind while you're away. Since I work from home, the pet is with me 24/7, with only short breaks if I need to go do an errand - in which case we use a crate. In Your Home: I respect your home as I would my own. I follow all your instructions for feeding, medication, routines, and house rules. I keep things tidy, secure doors and windows, and ensure your pet stays safe and comfortable in their familiar environment. I'm happy to bring in mail, water plants, or adjust lighting to give your home a lived-in feel while you're away. Communication is key, so I provide regular updates and am always available if questions come up. My goal is to make the transition seamless for both you and your pet.

About: I’m the lady who crosses the street to ask if I can pet your dog. I love all dogs, but big dogs have my heart. I confess, I’m also the lady that will remember your dog’s name, age and origins, but perhaps not always your name. Although I have the confidence and experience to befriend your big dogs, that shouldn’t suggest that I don’t love our smaller friends, as well. Big and small, I love them all❣️ I’ve been responsible for animals most of my life. Chiefly, I’ve had the privilege to care and own big dogs. Growing up, we had a Sheppard-Mastiff mix, and that’s when my love for big dogs began. In our house, we had a macaw, cockatoo, kākāriki, ring-necked parakeet, and a cockatiel, tropical/ saltwater fish, dogs, and cats. I continue to be a proud breed ambassador and have owned 4 Rottweilers over the years. I’ve been gainfully employed as a civil servant for 25 years. After my last Rottweiler passed away, I wanted to care for a dog again, but haven’t adopted quite yet. I enjoy hiking, outdoor activities, walking and traveling, and of course dogs! I’ve had the privilege to care for our misunderstood and sometimes reactive dog friends, as well. All dogs deserve love. I helped welp Belgian Malinois puppies and ensure they found loving, deserving homes. I joke that, “If the choice was between world peace or puppies, I would choose puppies.” I can’t wait to meet your doggie! Since I’m a civil servant, my schedule is consistent. I have free nights and 3-day weekends. I enjoy a lot of free time that I would like to fulfill with dogs. I have a secured, fenced yard. I can also kennel your pets as well. My responsibility to you is ensuring your family member is secure in my charge.

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 Mondays and Thursdays, but have flexibility to accommodate if your pet cannot be alone for 8 hours. 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 pet’s well-being. You can expect clear and consistent communication if you trust me with your furry family member. 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.

About: I love being outdoors and experiencing new neighborhoods. My experience ranges from watching over a breeder’s pack to petsitting for individual dogs. I’ve also looked after guinea pigs, ducks, rabbits, cats etc. I am available during the morning, day and evenings. I am a quiet, gentle person and animals seem to respond well to that. I’d like to walk dogs that are under 50 lbs, preferably. I can also house sit, take in the mail, water plants as needed. I can clean kennels, wash dishes and bowls and keep things generally tidy in your home. I have experience with giving medication if that is required of your pet. I am reliable and always available if you have any concerns, so please don’t hesitate to ask. I'm currently working part time and looking to find clients that I can serve on a weekly basis. Depending on the circumstances, I may bring my 4 year old female goldendoodle with me for walks as long as it is agreed upon beforehand. As a dog owner myself, I am constantly paying attention to the needs and triggers of my dog in an uncontrolled environment, especially during walks in the neighborhood. The same attentiveness would be given to your dog!

About: I am an animal lover and treat my own pets like part of the family. I am very active and love to take dogs on walks and I will love taking yours! I know they live for their walks! I will throw balls for your dog and take them to the park if wanted. I treat every dog the same and love them all...BIG or small. I am open to cats as well! My house is calm and tranquil. There are no kids in my house. My husky mix recently passed away suddenly in October and I miss her so much... Her name was Lily and she lived for her 2x/day walks. That is part of why I am doing this as a part time job because I miss my dog and would love to be around animals more. Pick me to take care of your loved one! I do work full time and I am gone 8-5 unfortunately. So weekends would be best for me. I’d be willing to do weekdays but you would have to be comfortable with me being gone during the day. I would take them on 2-3 walks per day.. 1 in the morning before work and 1 as soon as I get home from work. Unfortunately I don’t have a yard, just a small deck. If it’s a cat, I would make sure they had care and attention when I am home.
