“Holly clearly loves animals and was so good with my kitten! She shared pictures of him playing and getting a snuggle. I was very comfortable having her care for my fur baby 🥰”

About: I have loved animals like family as long as I can remember. And feel I have a special connection with them and them with me because of my calm and centered energy. Animals communicate and respond through peoples energy and I feel its how they know to feel safe. I care for dogs, cats, bunnies, birds, lizards etc. And am happy to answer any questions on all. I work for myself so I have a flexible schedule and can usually accommodate most schedule needs of pet parents. I typically make morning and evening rounds and unless I am out of town I am available 7 days a week. I take pride in my attention to detail and upon first introduction I try and get as much information as possible about a clients home and needs pertaining to their pets and what they are used to so that I can do my best to maintain that schedule and activity.

“We are so happy with Betsy's care! From the first meeting we knew our pet was in good hands. She is warm, attentive, accommodating and clearly good with the furry friends. Betsy gave us detailed updates every day and was very communicative through the entire process. Our not-very-friendly (and very skittish) kitty even greeted her every day and warmed up to her by the end of the stay. Would definitely recommend and work with Betsy again!”

“Laura has been a dependable buddy for our two cats while we are away. She is super friendly, easy to communicate with, and very reliable. We are very lucky to have her taking care of of our girls!”

“My cat warmed up to Micki very quickly & clearly enjoyed all the attention & play time. Micki is very comunicative & reliable & sends great notes, photos, & videos. Keebler has asked that I request Micki again for future visits.”


About: I’ve been in the horse training and care industry for roughly 20 years and have learned an immense amount about animal care over that time. I have worked with all different species, breeds, sizes, and temperaments and I am willing to take on any challenge. My schedule is currently part time and scattered so I have a lot of availability and flexibility to care for any and all animals. I also have nearly fully availability on the weekends. I will not be offering services in my home but will be available to travel to your home and I will respect your house rules.
“This should really be at least 10 stars. Julie is a true professional. She clearly loves animals and orivided such loving care. Iline if the most difficult things anout my recent move to California was finding care for the cats when we travel. Pip especially needs extra TLC and must be medicated daily. Julie quickly got through the business of the day and spent some quality time each day with the “kids.” Couldn’t be happier!”

“Kyle was kind, communicative, and spent a lot of time caring for our animals. Even our cat who has extreme stranger danger warmed up to him. Kyle sent cute pics regularly and we were grateful to him for that. Your animals are in good hands with Kyle.”

“Casey took excellent care of our cat while we were out of town. She was very responsive and left detailed status updates. I would highly recommend Casey to anyone looking for a responsible and reliable caretaker.”

“Sabrina is responsible, on-time, communicative, and enthusiastic! We felt very comfortable with her coming into the house and taking our dog out in the afternoons. We received cute pictures and updates. We will definitely book Sabrina again!”

About: Hello! I am an experienced dog and cat owner, currently looking for full time pet sitting and or walking gigs. I have experience with high drive/energy breeds, dogs that struggle with reactivity towards people and other animals and aggressive or nervous cats and dogs. I have knowledge of both dog and cat body language and go the extra mile to look out for anything out of the ordinary to make sure your pet is safe with me! I currently have no place of employment and have all the time to take care of your wonderful pets! I can stop by feed, water and/or walk your pup, can watch your pet at your residence, or just stop by to make sure they’re alright while you’re out! I would only be available to care for your animals inside your residence, give them some exercise around the neighborhood or nearest park! I make time during the day to take care of my own animals and while I work for you your furry family member will be my priority!
“Berenice was able to drop in on our cat Milo with short notice and took wonderful care of him. She is very attentive, kind, and asked lots of great questions about his care. We look forward to having her back soon!”

“Kaitlin is the best. We consider her family now. She is absolutely amazing with our 2 cats. I always know what's going on, and she has gone way above and beyond the call of duty with my family. We had a medical emergency overseas and ended up having to extend our stay by 3 weeks. Not only did she give us and our cats comfort in a trying situation, but she stepped up and helped us get the mail, get more supplies, find new enrichment ideas to keep their minds active and healthy, and come up with new ideas to help. Kaitlin is the best person you can have watching your furry family. 💓”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 6 years and love working with pups of all ages and sizes. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and reinforcing basic training. I prioritize safety, consistency, and making sure your dog feels happy and secure while you’re away. You can count on regular updates and lots of love for your pup! Pet care fits naturally into my routine, and I do my best to plan my days around the dogs I’m caring for. I make sure they get consistent walks, playtime, feeding, and attention. I’m reliable, organized, and committed to giving each pet the time and care they deserve. Safety is always my top priority. I carefully follow each pet’s routine and any instructions provided. I supervise outdoor time, ensure secure environments, and pay close attention to behavior and body language. I strive to create a calm, structured setting where dogs feel comfortable and cared for.
“Rachael was amazing with our cats. Lady is totally bonded with her, and she was incredibly patient and respectful of our shy cat, Ghost, who prefers to stay hidden. Rachael gave thoughtful, funny, and detailed updates that truly reassured us that our pets were happy and well cared for. She also took great care of our home, kept everything clean, and even handled things like kitty trash without us having to ask. It’s obvious she genuinely cares about the animals she watches. We absolutely trust her with our pets and highly recommend her.”

About: I'm a lifelong animal lover in Sebasta-Rosa with a flexible schedule and a deep love for exploring the outdoors. I raised my dog from a puppy and it was one of the most rewarding experiences of my life. He passed after a very happy life, and now I care for friends' and family's dogs through overnight boarding and pet sitting, and I truly delight in getting to bond with each dog and create our own little routine together. I understand the trust involved in welcoming someone into your home and into your pet's life. I specialize in active walks and hikes for dogs who love to get out and explore- I like to work with a single dog at a time so I can really get to know them and develop strong communication with them, rather than working with a large pack. It might not be as lucrative, but I'm into depth and relationships! 🐶 I know all the best dog-friendly spots in the area: Laguna de Santa Rosa, Riverfront Regional Park, Taylor Mountain, and the local bike trails. For older dogs, I'm happy to take it easy with gentle neighborhood strolls. I've also managed complicated medication routines for dogs in treatment, so I'm comfortable with pets who need extra care. I use positive reinforcement techniques and am comfortable with pets of all energy levels and temperaments. Whether your pup needs a trail adventure, your senior dog needs patient care, your cat needs some company, or you just need a reliable check-in, I'd love to help. My schedule is flexible, so I can accommodate last-minute requests, early mornings, or evenings—whatever works best for you and your pet. I know how important it is to find someone you can trust, my doggo was my world. I would love to be there for your pet! I work from home as a freelancer and can accommodate most requests on weekdays, sometimes I can also pick up work on weekends. My children live with me every other weeks so I do not board on those weeks, hence planning ahead if you would like to board. In My Home: I treat every pet in my care as if they were my own. I maintain a calm, safe environment and follow your established routines as closely as possible—from feeding schedules to playtime preferences. For dogs, I provide plenty of exercise through walks or hikes suited to their energy level, and I'm always attentive to their comfort and body language. I keep pets secure with leashed walks, and I'm vigilant about potential hazards both indoors and on trails. For pets on medication or special diets, I follow instructions carefully and keep detailed notes. I also provide regular updates with photos so you can enjoy peace of mind while you're away. Since I work from home, the pet is with me 24/7, with only short breaks if I need to go do an errand - in which case we use a crate. In Your Home: I respect your home as I would my own. I follow all your instructions for feeding, medication, routines, and house rules. I keep things tidy, secure doors and windows, and ensure your pet stays safe and comfortable in their familiar environment. I'm happy to bring in mail, water plants, or adjust lighting to give your home a lived-in feel while you're away. Communication is key, so I provide regular updates and am always available if questions come up. My goal is to make the transition seamless for both you and your pet.
“Gina is such a reliable and responsible person who provides excellent care to my cats! She is very communicative and always helps me feel at ease when I travel. I definitely recommend booking with her!”

Sebastopol cat parents share their Rover experiences
Laura was fantastic. She spent time getting Tigerlilly, who isn't used to strangers, comfortable. It was our first time leaving the cats for more than 12 hours so we really enjoyed seeing photos of the cats. Laura also noticed that the litter needed to be totally changed and undertook doing that, which we really appreciate. We highly recommend Laura as a pet sitter, she is a lovely person!

Elika was perfect for our Puma! She checked in with me every visit with details of Puma's feeding, water and pee and pooh activity. Elika was responsible, respectful and cautious in our home. We arrived home to our well cared for pet, that was happy to see us! When we need a sitter for Puma, Elika is the sitter for us!! Thanks again for your service, Jill

Mary was efficient, through and reliable in her drop-in visits. She engaged with my shy boys and with the more friendly female. I found the kitchen area clean because she rinsed the cat dishes as they were used. I heartily recommend Mary for sitting with your pets!

Alexis was great! My kitty is usually very shy & hides for at least the first 5 minutes when meeting someone new, but not with Alexis. She hung out with her right from the start & even let her play with her a bit. I was really able to relax while away, knowing she was being well cared for.
