Fun Loving Responsible Pet Sitter!

I have been an animal lover all of my life, and have 15 years of professional pet-sitting and dog-walking experience. I took several years off of Rover to focus on other things, and have recently relocated back to Santa Cruz, where I look forward to caring for the pets in my community! I grew up with a German Shepherd, many different cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, goldfish and a horse. I am a musician/artist so I have a very flexible schedule most of the time, and love to spend that time hanging out with new animal friends. Available to care for dogs, cats, fish, horses and more. I live with 5 very particular cats on a family homestead so cannot have anymore animal friends on my property, so I am only available for visits to your house. I look forward to meeting you and your pet(s)!

Sera is the best Rover sitter we’ve ever had! She was absolutely wonderful with our 2 cats right from the meet-and-greet. She was extremely personable, professional, detail oriented, and a true cat lover. She took such sweet photos of our cats during her visits, which made it easier to be away from them. Thank you, Sera, for being the best in the biz!

Sera was a champ house sitting for me and my pet collection! She took great care of my elderly dogs, insane cat monster, and anti-social bunnies. She is a true animal lover and a kind and caring person. I highly recommend Sera and look forward to booking her again.

Sera is great! She watched over our dogs and house over the holiday weekend and this was the first time in the 4 years of having our dogs I felt at ease going on a trip and leaving the dogs with a sitter. She took great care of them and sent us pictures daily, very easy to communicate with and the dogs loved her. I'm so glad we found her! We will absolutely be booking her again!

Sera afforded me complete peace of mind. She took excellent care of my three dogs, was very attentive and treated them like her own. And my three dogs all took to her right from the start. And she sends daily photos of them which is great.
