Cat Sitting Mark West Springs

About: I have always had pets in my life, and this is reflected in my 20 years of pet care experience, and I'm only 24 years old. What sets me apart from other sitters is my extensive pet care experience combined with a deep commitment to each animal's well-being. Here are some key aspects of my approach: * I am respectful of not only the pet parents' time, energy, and boundaries but also the pet (after all, they are family) * I maintain a structured routine, ensuring that pets receive consistent care, feeding, and exercise. * I excel in time management, ensuring that all tasks and activities are completed efficiently and on schedule. * I am deeply compassionate and empathetic, treating every pet as if they were my own, which helps them feel safe and loved in my care. These qualities enable me to provide high-quality, attentive care that meets the unique needs of each pet I look after. Because it is summer, I am not enrolled in any classes and my days are spent enjoying the summer weather and occasionally hanging out with friends. This means that I am free every day of the week at any time. I will be transferring to a college in Southern California at the end of August, but up until that point, I am free. When I am pet sitting, whether it be an overnight stay or just coming over for potty breaks/walks, I make sure that I am respectful of the family home and make sure that it appears as if I was never there to begin with. Everything has its place within a client's home and it is not my place to move things or reorganize based on my standards. In my home, everything does have its place, even if it looks like chaos it is organized chaos. My cat is taken care of very well if his age is any indication, and I make sure that he is comfortable and feels safe within his home.

About: If you’re new to Rover, let me know! I can give you a $20 off code to book. ☺️ Lifelong animal lover with experience caring for pets of all sizes and personalities, from Yorkies to Great Danes, cats, reptiles, and more. I’m currently a German Shepherd mom and have a strong understanding of large-breed dogs, working breeds, and dogs with more complex behavioral needs. I’m comfortable with reactive dogs and dogs trained with e-collars. I prioritize consistency, patience, and helping pets feel safe and understood in their environment. I also have experience caring for senior and medically complex pets, including cats with kidney failure, neurological issues, administering subcutaneous fluids, medications, and injections. In addition to dogs and cats, I’m comfortable caring for exotic pets, especially reptiles. Whether your pet needs an active, confident handler or gentle specialized care, I aim to provide dependable, personalized care tailored to their individual needs. 🏡 My house sitting usually includes 3-4 drop in visits each day ranging 1-3 hours each and overnight stay in your home if requested and agreed upon. Otherwise, I will be at your home for potty breaks/feeding/walks first thing in the morning at an agreed upon time and will end the day tucking them into bed before I leave for the night. Pet care fits very naturally into my routine because I have a flexible work schedule and the ability to work remotely. I can accommodate walks and drop-in visits first thing in the morning, around lunch, in the early afternoon, or in the evening depending on your pet’s needs and routine. I enjoy building consistency and routine for pets so they feel comfortable and well cared for while you’re away. I provide care in my clients’ homes so pets can stay comfortable in their familiar environment and maintain their normal routines. I’m happy to follow any established care instructions, training protocols, medication schedules, feeding routines, or household guidelines to keep things as consistent and stress-free as possible for your pets. Depending on your pet’s needs and energy level, I can do neighborhood walks, enrichment activities, playtime, or outings for more active dogs. I aim to make pets feel safe, cared for, and comfortable while giving owners peace of mind that their animals are in capable and attentive hands.

About: To start off, I grew up with dogs and cats— and am very good at reading body language. I have been cat and dog sitting since the age of twelve, and as of 1 year ago have over 200 hours of volunteering at Sonoma County Animal Services. There I walk, feed, play with, and clean dogs and cats of all kind. So I am very qualified and would love a chance to take care of your furry friends! I have flexible hours as my classes are coming to an end, I can discuss times that will work for me but overall am open to working out a set schedule! I have two dogs and one cat, they are taken care of very well. As mentioned before I also volunteer with dogs and cats and have seen about every type of behavior a person can think of— I am a very responsible and kind person and pride myself on how trustworthy I am.

About: I have loved dogs ever since I was a little kid and have always gotten along with every dog I have met. I helped and observed the training of my own dog where I learned a lot about their behaviors and how to get along with them. I am college athlete home for the summer so I spend part of each day training, but majority of my time can be spent your pets! I will follow instructions and prioritize your pet’s comfort and needs. I will maintain a clean environment in your home and make sure your pets get lots of extra love and attention.

About: I am a true animal lover who adores both cats and dogs! I a free most of the time, and open to last minute bookings! I typically offer early morning or evening availability, perfect for those who need care before or after work. However, I’m flexible and open most days, so feel free to reach out, and I’ll do my best to accommodate your pet’s needs. I’m happy to come to your home! I am reliable and responsible, and more than happy to send some quality time with your pet :)

“Calling Rachael a “pet sitter” doesn’t even begin to cover it. Of course she takes incredible care of my pets, but what really sets her apart is the care she puts into every single visit. Her report cards genuinely become a highlight of my day when I’m away. They’re hilarious, thoughtful, and full of personality, and the photos she sends absolutely melt my heart. I end up sharing them with friends and family because they’re just that good. Somehow she managed to make me feel guilty coming home because I’m pretty sure my cat Lady was having more fun with Rachael than she does with me. Between stroller adventures, birdwatching expeditions, story time, shoulder rides, and endless cuddles, Lady was living an objectively better social life than I was. And it’s not just the pets. Rachael takes amazing care of the home too. I always come back to a tidy house, clean dishes, scooped litter boxes, and dozens of thoughtful little touches that make returning from a trip so much easier. Frequent travel can be stressful, and being away from the animals I love is never easy. Rachael removes so much of that worry. If you’re someone who feels anxious about leaving your pets behind, know that they’ll be receiving extraordinary care, attention, enrichment, and love. In fact, there’s a very real chance they’ll be having such a great time they won’t miss you at all. 😂 We are incredibly lucky to have found her.”

“She did everything we asked and took good care of kitty while we were away!”

About: I have been providing dedicated pet‑sitting services for over 20 years, drawing on the experience of a 25‑year veterinary career during which I’ve owned and cared for many cats and dogs. Animals have always been at the center of my life. We recently said goodbye to our beloved 18‑year‑old kitty in August, and we currently share our home with a sweet 15‑year‑old cat and a lively 5‑year‑old rescue dog who keeps us smiling. I currently work full time Thursday through Monday starting around noon and off around 9. My schedule does fluctuate a bit based on the needs of my work I don't accept pet sitting at my house as I don't feel that is fair to my pets. I care for pet sitting jobs in their home, where I feel they are most comfortable. They are already without their family so it feels most natural for them to be in their home.

About: Ever since I can remember i’ve been surrounded by many different animal personalities. From the doggies I have loved, the puppies i've been blessed to bring into my home, and the many other creatures i’ve been able to care for. I have had 8 dogs and 6 cats in my lifetime and a plethora of other fun friends along the way. I sat beside my beautiful Golden as she delivered 2 litters of puppies and cared for them until other families had that privilege. Animals have always been a passion of mine, and all dogs and cats I get the honor to care for are loved just as I would love my own. I have dog sat and taken care of many animals of my friends and family, and I’m excited to expand my caregiver passion. I’m currently on my summer break from college, and I’m pretty much free all the time! Once school starts up again I can work around my schedule. But I am always available Friday-Sunday! I am able to do whatever is necessary for specific pet care in anyone’s home. I am very respectful of clients environments and personal expectations.

About: I previously worked at a specialty vet clinic that provided rehabilitation/physical therapy services to both cats and dogs. I cared for paralyzed canines, created care routines for geriatric animals, and became versed in a variety of different medical conditions. I also worked at a doggie daycare facility preparing specialty meals, administering meds, and controlling behavior in play yards. I am highly experienced in caring for animals and have owned cats and dogs my entire life. I will care for your pets as if they’re my own. I’m currently working part time while getting my Masters Degree at SSU. In Fall, I’ll have class Monday and Tuesday evening, as well as Thursday afternoon. I work at a school, so I’m available early mornings, late afternoons, and evenings during the week and all day on weekends! I typically care for pets as if they are my own, unless there are specific instructions from you! This means taking time to play with them and getting their energy out so they’re not bored all day. Anything I can do to make them feel safe and calm, I will do to the best of my ability.

“Michael is highly responsive, reliable, and a clear communicator. He’s gentle and caring with my 9-year-old, deaf (but energetic) cocker spaniel. I feel like we’re in good hands.”

About: Hi there!👋🏼 My name is Paige, and I’m 24 years old with a passion for dogs! I’ve been working with dogs since I was 15 and I’ve done everything from working hands on in a boarding facility, to walking and training pups daily, to 3 years as a vet tech! I’ve had many great opportunities that have allowed to me house sit with pups, taking pups to and from appointments, spending the day with pups, and checking in on them throughout the day. I’ve helped neighbors, family, and friends with caring for their pets for years; feedings, walks, house sitting long term or just for the day, and much more. I’ve handled dogs at all sizes, from small chihuahuas to big great danes! I have experience in working with puppies and senior dogs, as well. I’d love to hear from you and get get to know your furry friends! I’m currently working full time, Monday through Friday as a dog walker & trainer. My availability starts at 5pm on weekdays, and on weekends, my availability is 8am-8pm. I always will make sure your pets safety comes first! If needed, I will make the safest decisions if having to leave them briefly unattended, and will always make sure there is no possibility for an unsafe environment. I’m very familiar with what products are or are not safe for your pets to be around & have gained experience and knowledge on how to properly handle any emergency situations that may occur. I have a very friendly, playful & respectful 3year old cattle-dog mix that hasn’t met a dog that hasn’t become her best buddy, with housesitting she is part of my requirement to be able to bring with me, but she is no threat, just a big cuddle bug!🐶 I’m currently working full time starting at 7:45am, and ending at 5pm in Santa Rosa. I do have a 2 year old cattle dog mix who will need to come with me for housesitting gigs. She gets along perfectly with every dog, and will not stay home alone with your furry companions, to ensure comfortability. My weekends are very flexible with accommodating for me to have time to walk with your pet, have play time, or just going to make sure your pet is doing good while you’re away for the day! I will always make sure your pup is well cared for! Your animals safety is my #1 priority. I’ll always make sure the surrounding environment is accommodating, pet friendly, and safe. When I have to step out of the house for any extended period of time, it’ll be my first priority to leave them in a safe environment.

“She is very reliable and happy to take care of my fur baby.”

“Gigi did an excellent job taking care of my three babies while I was away. She stayed in constant contact with me and sent reports and pictures from each visit so I could enjoy my vacation opposed to worrying about my dogs. Gigi went above and beyond by walking them and shampooing a spot on the carpet. I would definitely trust Gigi to care for my pups again.”

“I can highly recommend Maddie. She is reliable and easy to communicate with. She came by midday daily while I was away.to play with my elderly dog who is used to having me home much of the time. My dog loves her too.”

Laura P.

“Ozlo was a fantastic dog sitter and walker of my two dogs. I was especially impressed with the Rover cards, they had photos, detailed notes, and showed a map of where they walked. I have two medium sized dogs that love people (but also love to chase squirrels, cats, deer, etc) and Ozlo handled them wonderfully. Every visit was on time and the dogs got so excited for their daily walks. I will definitely book again, thank you so much Ozlo!”
