About: I grew up with dogs and recently lost my best friend, a corgi, Teddy. As a long time dog-owner, I understand how much anxiety goes into leaving your dog with someone else. I will treat your dog/s as if they were my own. I have much experience with aging / elderly dogs and dogs with special needs (dogs with leash aggression, anxiety, allergies, and prosthetic limbs/wheel chairs). My goal is to get to know you and your dog, and provide tailored service to meet your wants and your furry loved one's needs. I am happy to provide updates and pictures of our time together too! I work from home and have a flexible schedule. Please reach out if you have any additional questions for me! Thank you! I work from home, which allows for frequent walks, potty breaks and play time! Both the dogs and myself appreciate the breaks within the day! I have a fenced in yard and multiple ring cameras to ensure everyone's safety. Neighboring houses do not have dogs; it is a quiet and peaceful environment.
About: I have an 11lb, 9 year old maltipoo named Sailor that sparks joy, a lovely wine country home with fenced backyard & love caring for Sailor & his friends 🐶. I have experience with special needs pups (anxiety, disabilities, etc…) I treat every pup as my own & provide patience & care. I pride myself with responsiveness, updates & pictures. Working from home provides so much time & attention for play, walks & relaxation, home also has AC for the hot days keeping everyone very comfortable & happy! My amazing husband works from home part time & loves helping & enjoying our pup loving life! Dogs are very drawn to his calm, friendly energy. Sailor & pup friends are always attended, allowed supervised in fenced backyard, leash walks, & always allowed on beds and furniture, with plenty of toys & soft fluffy blankets to cuddle on. Happy to follow guidelines, & modify for less or more activity or routine preferences.

About: Hi, my name is Mollie! Growing up with a household of rescue animals taught me the joys of pet care, and I understand the patience and love some furrever friends need to feel safe. I've been caring for pets of my own and others for 2+ decades. Rest assured, I have a wealth of love for animals of all shapes and sizes, regardless of their needs. I currently have a 9 yr old mini aussie named Olive, she's my sidekick and we do everything together! I rescued her as a puppy and had the opportunity to train her from infancy. She is a ball of fun and happy to tag along on visits if you feel your pet could use some socializing or a little help with training (our puppy clients love to learn by olive’s example, and senior clients find she’s a fantastic snuggle partner). I guarantee safety and security for pets of all sizes, and Olive and I are accommodating to any regimen/schedule your furry friend might be accustomed to. I just moved from LA to Napa and I’m in the process of pivoting careers so while I’m between full time jobs, I have extra time to spend with your furry friend! For extended stays, I request that my sidekick, Olive, tags along. Olive is an excellent companion and loves animals, people, and fuzzy toys (she hugs them like a friend) ! She can snuggle with your senior, run/play with your puppy, she even leads by example and can be helpful to some clients who are in training with their pups!
“Lindsay was such a good sitter for my little yorkie boy, Monty Banks! Super caring and attentive, making sure he was happy!! I explained that he is ALWAYS with me and may not be very engaging and just miss his mama, but she took him for an awesome walk and kept him busy and he even snuggled a bit. The photos were so cute and made me feel safe, as this is only our second time using Rover…what a great experience!! I was visiting wine country for a girls trip and decided last minute to grab a mud bath…so happy to have someone so special to puppy sit!!!”
“I contacted Ronald last minute because I couldn't walk my dog, and even though we didn't have a chance to do a meet and greet, he was patient with my dog. We're excited about more walks with him in the future.”

About: I’ve taken care of animals for as long as I can remember, through every stage of their lives. Growing up with dogs, they have always been like family to me. I’ve had experience with all different kinds of dogs and cats and have also worked at a doggy daycare / boarding center. Spending time with furry friends never feels like work to me. I am fortunate to live at home where I know my own dog is always cared for when I am away, so I can confidently care for yours too! I always enjoy being able to go for walks and make visits during the day in between managing my other responsibilities. As a student, I typically have more availability in the afternoons and evenings. I am happy to visit and walk with your pups during the day, providing them each the individual care that they deserve. I am open to doing group walks as well, depending on your pet’s preferences. I am also able to pet sit, where I can care for your fur babies in the comfort of their own home!
About: In my life, I have taken care of many types of animals but mostly cats and dogs. I have always been a reliable person for family or friends to call. I have taken care of 4-week-old kittens to deaf and blind dogs that need a little extra care. I love them all the same. My schedule is Monday thru Friday from 8 am to 5pm but can be flexible. I live in an apartment but do have med size backyard that is secure with a tall fence and gates that latch and usually keep a lock on them. I would say for me, it all depends on the animal that I am watching and fit them in however I can. My schedule aside from work is very flexible. I am currently not watching pets in my house but when I am petsitting at someone house. I like to have it as close to the animals normal routine.
“Julie was absolutely amazing! My 4-month-old puppy had such a great time with her. She was super punctual, very responsive, and kept me updated throughout. I really appreciated that she took my puppy to the park and made sure she got plenty of exercise and attention. You can tell Julie genuinely cares about the dogs she works with. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”

About: I have over 12 years of animal care experience with dogs, cats, chickens, bunnies, AND plants! I pride myself on safety, comfortability, cleanliness, organization and overall work ethic. I am currently completing my MSW practicum hours which takes up most of my time but availability can be flexible throughout the week! Thank you! I am very attentive to keeping a clean and organized environment for animals (and humans). I ensure spaces are kept very safe, comfortable and loving!
“David was extremely professional and flexible! I really appreciated his quick responses to my last minute requests before walking our dog on various occasions. I felt comfortable leaving our pup in his hands and would definitely recommend him!”
About: I have lots of experience caring for pets, ensuring they feel safe, happy, and loved. Whether it’s feeding, walking, or just spending time with them, I cater to each pet’s individual needs. I’m passionate about animals and strive to provide the best care for your pets while you’re away. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine, as I prioritize giving each pet the attention and care they need. Each day includes feeding, walking, playtime, and regular check-ins to ensure pets are happy and healthy. Weekly, I ensure pets get consistent exercise, mental stimulation, and any special care they may require, like administering medication or grooming. Pet care is a rewarding part of my schedule, and I make sure to provide a structured and loving environment for every pet I look after. When caring for pets in my home, I create a comfortable and safe environment tailored to their needs. I ensure they have plenty of space to play, rest, and explore. Pets receive regular meals, daily walks, and engaging activities to keep them happy and healthy. I also provide lots of attention and affection, treating them like family members. Whether it's grooming, training, or simply offering companionship, I make sure each pet feels loved and secure during their stay.
About: As a fur mom myself, I treat other pets as if they were my own. I have two dogs and a cat. Two of them are seniors and I've had them since they were young. I believe in training basic commands, positive enforcement, and lots of snuggles. When I'm not pet sitting, I'm hanging out with my pups outside while they get their zoomies out. I'm comfortable with excited pups, counter surfers, and shy pups. We all have our quirks! I take care of our 3 pets (2 dogs, 1 cats) and their care is my top priority on my day to day. Feeding, training, and getting the zoomies out. I like to keep the dogs routine as much as possible. Some dogs can get anxious when someone new is introduced and I find it's best to keep things as simple and normal as possible.

About: I’ve grown up around animals my entire life, so caring for them has always come naturally to me. From feeding and walks to playtime and attention, I’m comfortable with all aspects of pet care. Being around animals has helped me understand their different needs and personalities, and I treat every pet like they’re my own! I’m currently a student at Pacific Union College. I’m available for drop-in visits during the week and have open availability on weekends for overnight care. During overnight stays, I will focus on keeping your pets’ routine as consistent as possible, from feeding and walks to playtime and bedtime. I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for, while also keeping your home clean and secure.
“Five stars for Holly! Holly was fantastic with my energetic Husky, Romeo. She went above and beyond to keep him cool on their hot walks, bringing ice water and a towel to refresh him. It's clear Holly is thoughtful and caring, and I highly recommend her to other dog owners. Romeo came back happy and exhausted - a clear sign he had a great walk with Holly. She also spoiled him with high-value treats, which kept him motivated and engaged during the walk. On top of that, Holly sent a video and multiple photos during the walk, which gave me peace of mind and allowed me to see how much fun Romeo was having.”

“Spencer was friendly, energetic and very patient in gaining the trust of my new rescue pup. JoJo came back happy and tired from his walk. Will definitely continue to request Spencer going forward.”
About: Dog care professional with 2+ years of kennel experience specializing in daily care, medication administration, and behavior monitoring. Dependable and detail-focused, with a passion for creating a safe, structured environment while adapting care to each dog’s unique needs and personality. I work for a Veterinary Hospital and currently have no other extra curricular activities.

I live with a blue heeler, chihuahua, and husky. I have experience with all types of breeds and energy levels prior to work experience in a dog daycare/boarding facility.
About: I’ve had neighbors, friends and family rely on my to take care of their kids and pets since I was about 16 but I didn’t start really doing it a lot until I was about 18 and driving. I’m used to taking care of kids and animals at the same time so just taking care of animals would be pretty easy for me. I currently only work weekends 11:15-5:15pm other than that I’m fully available. I do play in some soccer leagues but I’ll only be gone about an hour and a half of the days I play. I am comfortable putting dogs in crates, picking up after animals, feeding them, letting them out and giving them as much love as they will take lol.
About: I have trained my personal dogs with basic commands and helpful safety training so the dog and human are safe. Can assist with puppy training and leash walking as well. I adore all cats and the strong willed personalities. Birds including chickens are also in my wheel house. My flexible schedule gives me the opportunity to care for your pet through the day in a mellow and calm environment. Multiple neighborhood walks and fetch are on the daily itinerary. I am comfortable with crate training dogs, and or free roaming pups. If your dog pulls on walks, I am delighted to have the patience to work on stopping this trait to make walking a breeze for you in the future.
“Mariah is a true professional! Thank you Mariah for taking care of my pups— it feels great to know they are in great hands with a person I can trust who knows what she is doing and is in this business for the right reasons.”
