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 have hands on experience caring for my own terrier since he was a puppy and is now 9 years old. Through friends and family I’ve also spent time caring for their dogs and cats. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, and check-ins. I love animals and getting to know their personalities. I want to make sure they feel loved and cared for while their owners are away. I currently work at a school but am off during the summer. Which gives me the flexibility schedule. I’m available weekdays in the morning, afternoon, and evenings. Some Sundays depending on the day. I am happy to communicate and work with each pet owner to find a schedule that works best. I treat every pet as if they are my own and try to keep up with their routine. I follow feeing instructions, make sure pets have fresh water, playtime, exercise. I feel comfortable providing updates and photos to make pet owner feel at ease. My priority is to make sure pets feel safe and cared for.
About: I’ve taken care of animals for my whole life! I’ve been pet sitting since I was 13 and have taken care of every kind of animal including dogs, cats, frogs, horses, birds, rabbits and more! I am flexible and can navigate my schedule to meet your needs! I can pop by for a quick lunch time potty visit or help get energy out on hour + excursions!

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.
“Thank you Sam for walking Reshi and letting him burn some energy. He was so much happier when he came home. I appreciate how prompt you were and how well you communitcated with me for our first meeting. Thank you for taking him on short notice. I really appreciate you and will be in touch next time I need a day off from walking him.”

“Wow Cora is amazing! She helped us out during a family emergency and was able to come over to take care of our girls at the last minute. She sent lots of pictures and a video, and even braved the rain to give them exercise. I highly recommend working with Cora.”

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.

“Lucy has been so great walking my dog for the last several months. She shows up when she says consistently, and has been there numerous times on short notice. Couldn't ask for a better dog walker and definitely worth the extra couple bucks.”

“Alex has been incredibly reliable and caring with my dog. They’re gentle, kind, and clearly love what they do. I always feel at ease knowing my pup is in such good hands. Highly recommend!”

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: I am intuitive with animals and I connect with them easily. I am reliable and safe attending to the animal's care. Available by phone if you need me. I'm currently working part-time and I will be a reliable person in caring for your pets! If you would like to have a consult meet and greet I am available to do so. I love to take them on walks outside and pay attention to their needs throughout the day giving dogs a healthy lifestyle and lots of hugs, administering medication as needed and exercise
About: I took up walking dogs at the age of 13 and I haven’t looked back since. :) Walking, it is a life and furniture saver! What sets me apart from other dog walkers is my background in training. I have trained many dogs, large, medium, small, high energy, and stubborn. There is nothing a few treats a long walk, and some attention can’t fix. I recently moved to the Petaluma area to take care of my father who has been sick. We create the schedule so I can set anytime aside for a nice walk. I provide walks, training, cuddles and great company for the fur babies! If your pup enjoys a good run, I am more than capable to provide that as well. However your pup feels the safest is my goal.
Haystack dog parents share their Rover experiences
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!
