Savannah cared for our chickens for nearly three full weeks and watched over the house and plants. She provided regular updates, was intuitive to care for the girls in the hot weather and allowed my time away to feel so much more at ease. I was so thrilled to return with thriving plants, and happy, calm chickens. Will definitely look to book with her again in the future, and recommend fully!”
About: I worked in a doggy daycare for a few years and have been caring for pets still after that. Have had a senior dog of my own to care for. I am very flexible with time throughout the week. Have dogs to care for of my own so while wife is at work during the day will need to care for them a little bit. I will care for the clients pet in their home exactly how they would want their dog treated in their home, and will follow their instructions exactly.
“I cannot say enough good things about Alex and how well he took care of our two cats while we were away for a week. He was so on top of everything, sent detailed updates and photos with every check-in and it was just so nice to be able to enjoy our vacation without worrying if our cats were in good hands. I would HIGHLY recommend him and will definitely be using him again in the future!”
“The best house sitter we've had in years. I'm fastidious by nature, and it's hard for us to find someone who's not only able to take good care of our precious kitties, but someone who can also return our home to the neat-as-a-pin state we left it in. Ariel was quick and clear in her communications, and followed through on everything she said she'd do. It was a pleasure to work with her. We will certainly cross our fingers and hope she's available the next time we go out of town.”
“Amazing!! I was able to relax and enjoy my trip knowing my cats were in great care! She even got them some treats that they seemed to love! Would highly recommend!”
About: I have had dogs all my life and have taken care of cats as well for a chunk at time as well. I currently have a mini Aussie and we are frequently on walks and adventures around town and Sonoma and Marin county. I am great with dogs on leash and encountering other dogs on walks. Love dogs of all ages. I own my own business as a wedding and even floral designer in Petaluma. My hours are flexible but mostly due to my she file during the spring and summer Sundays - Wednesdays are best. But ask and happy to work something out. I have a fenced in yard with a small patch of lawn, with water and toys available to play with for the dog. In our neighborhood, we typically walk around it is a good area to walk around.
About: I've grown up with an animal in the house my entire life and have help pet sit fellow family, friends, and neighbors fur babies too. Whether is was a multiple day stay to alleviate stress and boredom to just giving the pup(s) a chance to get energy out until their human returns from a long days work I was able to step in and help provide that care. Walks, play, food and water are the basics, but taking the time to give those goof scratches behind the ear or that one spot on the belly matters. Whatever the case may be, whether a young pup getting use to life in a house or a senior pup who needs their meds on time I'm happy to give our canine friends the positive attention and care they need until their humans return. I'm currently working part-time so there will be plenty of time to visit and make sure your pet is well taken care of and given some attention. Keeping pets safe is the top priority while looking after someone's furry family member. That means double checking that the space is safe for meals and play when indoors or outdoors, doors are managed properly so no escape artiest make a break for it, and that the correct food and water is given/placed out. Being safe is caring for not only the pet but the owner as well.
About: As a lifetime animal lover, your pet is my priority. I work at a leading veterinary specialty hospital, providing exceptional dermatological, oncological, and internal medicine care to cats and dogs. I am very well-versed in animal handling and care. I am attentive to all of your pet's needs. I have a B.S in Equine Science and extensive experience working with a wide variety of pets, including those requiring medications, therapies, and other special needs. I strive to provide your beloved pet with safe, holistic, and fun enrichment. I'm currently have availability on the weekends and every Monday and Friday to get to know and form a bond with your pet. I understand that life is not always predictable and am understanding, flexible, and accommodating of various needs. I have found that animals are drawn to my calm, friendly demeanor, and I am happy to adjust my services as necessary based on your pet's needs. I am reliable, communicative, and have pet-friendly transportation.

Mary Rebecca D.
“Mary Rebecca is good with a wide variety of animals. She has cared for my cats who are older and a bit persnickity and they like her more than most. I know she also raised one of her cats from when he was a kitten (found him at 3 days old) so she has done it all when it comes to cats at least. She has also spent time with various foster dogs we have had in and out of our house. She's always patient with their craziness and various needs - both medical and temperment wise. We even had her pet/house sit and stay at our place one Christmas. I would trust her with any of my fur-babies and highly suggest her for your Rover needs.”
Savannah H.

She is also very knowledgeable about animals and knows well how to read animal behavior and needs. She is truly the best and most reliable sitter you can find.I learned it first hand and I am so hlad to have found her for my little Frenchie. My dog and I couldn't be happier!”
