About: I have been walking dogs everyday for most of my adult life! I know how important it is for dogs to have daily exercise for physical and mental health. I am newly retired and ready to have fun walking your dog. My schedule is very open and I can even walk your dog on weekends. I have experience with all size dogs and personalities. Let me know what your dog enjoys most on walks and I can do the same.

About: I have had many dogs and cats throughout my lifetime. I treat all animals with love and respect and enjoy their energy. I have experience with young puppies to senior dogs and cats. My dog Addie is 14 and is winding down these days. This gives me time for exercising your dog or cat or playing and giving them quality time in your home. I am a young at heart, very active 66 year old equestrian with lots of time and energy to give to your beloved fur babies. I have good endurance and can walk hills and go on hikes. However, I am not able to walk larger dogs that pull strongly on the leash and react to squirrels, cats, or other dogs due to the concern of falling. I am retired so I am available any day of the week. I am available to walk your dog (small to medium) or senior big dogs. I am available to come to your house to play and/or spend time with your dog or cat while you are away. My dog is 14 and a bit cranky so I cannot have animals in my home while she is still with me. However, I can come to your house and provide company and exercise to your dog or cat. I will stay with your pet during your absence up to 5 hours a day. I will feed, change the litter box, entertain them with walks and/or playtime. Or just sit with them and keep them company. Eventually I will be available to care for dogs or cats in my home or overnight at yours, once my girl passes on. At this time, my time is limited to 4 to 5 hours per day due to not wanting to leave my dog alone for longer than 5 hours.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats my entire life, and it would truly be a privilege to work with animals every day! Over the years, I’ve volunteered at various animal shelters and have loved every minute of it. I thrive when I’m surrounded by all types of animals — each with their own unique personality and needs. With how expensive life has become, I want to offer my services at a very low and affordable rate. I completely understand that sometimes finances can be tight, and a pet still needs care. In those cases, I’m always willing to offer my time and services free of charge. A pet’s wellbeing should never depend on money — we’re all part of the same community, and I believe in helping one another. Animals need love, attention, and exercise — and they deserve it every day. I’d love the opportunity to help keep your pet happy, healthy, and loved. 🐾 Bonus: I also have experience in leash training cats! 😺 I have a flexible schedule, so I am available anytime to assist with your pets needs! Preferably west side of Petaluma. I am also available to feed and play with your cat on a wknd if you are out of town. I currently have two cats, and they pretty much own the place. I make sure they have toys, high places to climb on, and comfy beds to nap in. I would love to own a dog, but at the moment it’s not in the cards for me as I don’t have a large enough home yet. Give yourself the Peace of mind that your pet is well taken care of while you are away❣️

About: Hi! I’m a reliable and experienced pet sitter with over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for cats, dogs of all sizes, and chickens. I genuinely love animals and enjoy making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I have experience with daily walks, feeding routines, playtime, bathing, administering oral medications, cleaning litter boxes and animal areas, and providing lots of attention and companionship. I’m comfortable caring for both high-energy pets who love to play and older animals who may need a gentler approach and extra patience. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, and I always do my best to keep them happy, comfortable, and stress-free. Whether your pet needs long walks, cuddle time, medication, enrichment activities, or just someone dependable to check in on them, I’m happy to help! I pride myself on being responsible, communicative, attentive, and trustworthy, and I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own. I currently work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and open evening availability for walks, check-ins, feedings, playtime, and overnight care. Because of my flexibility, I’m able to provide reliable care and accommodate a variety of routines and pet needs. I have experience with daily walks, feeding routines, litter box cleaning, bathing, administering oral medications, enrichment activities, crate routines, and providing lots of companionship and attention. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers a calmer environment, I’m happy to adapt to what makes them most comfortable. I always aim to make pets feel as comfortable, safe, and stress-free as possible by maintaining their normal routine and giving them plenty of attention, care, and patience. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow all feeding, walking, medication, and household instructions carefully while also making sure pets receive playtime, companionship, exercise, and lots of affection. I know how important consistency is for animals, especially when their owners are away. For dogs, I provide walks, potty breaks, playtime, feeding, fresh water, medication administration if needed, and plenty of engagement and supervision. For cats, I provide feeding, litter box cleaning, enrichment/playtime, brushing if requested, medication administration, and calm companionship that matches each cat’s comfort level and personality. I’m very attentive to behavior changes and always prioritize safety, cleanliness, and communication. I also make sure owners stay updated with messages and photos so they can feel confident their pets are being well cared for.

About: I truly love animals and treat each pet like they're my own. I'm dependable, communicative, and always make sure your pet feels safe and happy while you're away! I also have experience at an animal rescue and shelter Pet care fits perfectly into my routine this summer! I'm a college student home for break, so I have a very open and flexible schedule. I love animals and really enjoy spending time with them, so pet sitting is something I genuinely look forward to doing during the day I take care of pets in their own home where they feel safest and happiest. I stick to their usual routine as much as possible whether that’s feeding, walks, playtime, or just some company. I’m always careful about locking doors, making sure they’re secure, and keeping an eye on anything they might get into. I want pets to feel relaxed and cared for while their owners are away, and I love sending little updates and photos to keep you in the loop!

About: I’m a dedicated and compassionate pet caregiver with over two years of hands-on experience working at a doggy daycare and boarding facility, along with additional experience providing pet sitting services for friends, family, and local pet owners. Caring for animals has always been something I genuinely enjoy, and I strive to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. Through my experience at a doggy daycare and boarding facility, I gained valuable knowledge working with dogs of all sizes, breeds, ages, and temperaments. I learned how to safely supervise group play, recognize and respond to dog body language, and handle a variety of situations calmly and responsibly. This experience also strengthened my understanding of animal behavior, socialization, and the importance of patience and consistency in pet care. In addition to my professional experience, I’ve also grown up with a family dog, which further taught me the daily responsibility, attention, and affection pets deserve. As a college student on summer break, my schedule is very flexible and open for pet care throughout the week. I have a few pre-planned trips this summer, but I’m available most days for walks, drop-ins, and lots of attention for your pets. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I always aim to provide reliable, attentive, and loving care. My goal is to make sure both pets and owners feel comfortable, reassured, and happy with the experience. I do this by paying careful attention to details and instructions as well as sending frequent updates.

About: I’ve been around animals since I was 5. I’ve mainly been around dogs and own quite a few over the years. My brothers have a whole pack that I love to play with and my sister has a cute high energy doggy that loves to play with me! I’m able to bathe them and play and whatever else! I love taking them on walks and I’ve walked multiple dogs at once as well! I’m working part time currently during the afternoon until night so I’m available for mornings and on my days off I’m also available to work! I’m usually around the dogs to keep an eye on them and to make sure they are stimulated by playing. I can feed and give them water, give them baths, take them on walks short or long.

Erin is amazing! She is responsible, punctual, and communicative. I scheduled walks with Erin at a time when things were really hectic in my personal life and I needed the extra support. Knowing that Erin was taking care of Ellie during this stressful time eased a lot of my own stress and allowed me to show up for other things with one less thing to worry about. Truly grateful. Thank you, Erin!
