Dog Walkers in Sebastopol, CA

“When Katie came to pick Oakley up for her first solo walk, Oakley soiled her playpen for the first time ever! Even though I’d only been gone about 4 hours she had diarrhea and couldn’t hold it. Kaitrin calmly cleaned up the mess, thought to remove the paper towels she used to clean up, took Oakley out to play, then returned her to the clean playpen and texted me to let me know what happened! Clearly this was a completely unexpected complication and Katie handled it perfectly! I’ve hired her to walk Oakley while I’m recovering from surgery and am very happy with my decision!”

“Amanda took Oakley out this past weekend and did a wonderful job! Oakley got lots of play time and was happily waiting for me in her playpen ???”

“Berenice is such a blessing! She took care of Gracie every day for weeks when I couldn’t and Gracie just loves being with her. HIRE Berenice, you’ll be happy you did”

“Sarah was wonderful with our sweet boy. He was so happy to see her each time she arrived to take him for his walk. Thank you so much, Sarah!!!”

“I did not physically cross paths with Alexis however it seems everything went smoothly and my pup seemed so happy to make a new friend. Will book again!”

“Michelle was awesome. Communicated clearly with us so we knew when she was arriving. Our dogs loved her. Now they are tuckered out and napping after their great adventure with Michelle. Thanks for taking care of them. Would have given 10 stars if it was available!!”

“I really appreciate Julie’s flexibility. Long work days occasionally pop up and I feel relieved that I finally found someone to deal with my unpredictable but sweet pup when I can’t be at home to exercise him.”

“Iris has been great with our dogs. She’s communicative, prompt, and responsible. She gave great updates with pics daily. The dogs love her. I’ll continue to work with Iris as needed.”

“Josh is a caring, active and responsible dog and house sitter. My dog is a Shiba Inu, very active, dog aggressive, untrained sweetheart ?. I feel totally confident in her care when Josh is with her, and I trust very few people with my walking chaos of a dog. Josh walks, plays, hikes, and sits with her! Josh will be loved by your dog, cause mine is very picky of humans too, but went to him instantly. Josh has also house sit for me since kenneling my dog is hard. The apartment was cleaner than I left it I think. It was great knowing my stuff and dog were being looked over by Josh. Pick him!!!!”

“Tom has an innate ability to connect with animals, especially dogs. Dogs naturally gravitate towards Tom and feel at ease in his presence. He cares so much for dogs and is super attentive to their needs. He now has a dog of his own that absolutely adores him but he’s been a favorite of all other close friends and families fur children long before he had his own. Most likely because he’s always going out of his way to play fetch, take walks or provide pets when needed. :) Any dog would be lucky to have Tom.”

“Our dog Ella has been a huge part of our family for 12 years and we treat her as such! When we go out of town or need someone to walk her we always can rely on Winston. His devoted love and the sweet connection he has for his own dog, Koda is what we wanted when trusting someone else with our Ella. He is out on the trail rain or shine at least twice a day with Koda and is always willing to help us with Ella when we need it. Ella had enjoyed many blissful walks and over nights with Winston and I personally highly recommend him to anyone looking for a person to care for their dog. He is responsible, punctual and friendly!”

“Melanie is a totally loving, caring and devoted animal person. She’s attentive, respectful, responsible and a good communicator. I trust her totally with my animals. I’ve witnessed her care for her own furry beloveds and know how animal centered her attention is. I highly recommend her! You’d be lucky to have her.”

“Melissa is amazing; she is punctual, communicative, friendly, and my pets adore her! I am never worried when I leave my pets in her care; I know they are well taken care of and that means the world to me. I can’t recommend her enough!”

About: New to Rover but not new to animal care! Growing up on a farm in Sebastopol, I've been tasked in animal care from a very young age. My experience in animal care is vast from caring for our own family dogs and cats, horses and livestock and expands to caring for neighbors, friends and family's pets which can also include dogs, cats, horses, cows, sheep/goats, chickens and more. My husband and I have two dogs: Captain, a 4 year old rescue and Bethany, our 3.5 year old guardian dog. These two are inseparable and the most special duo in our lives. I am an online student obtaining my Bachelor's degree which provides me with the time to spend with my animals and yours! Daytime availability throughout the week and weekend. My husband would say that my dogs are very spoiled (with the required manners, of course!) However, I treat my dogs as family, they are included in almost everything we do and any animal that comes to stay with us is treated no different. In your home, I strive to make each animal as comfortable as possible while following preexisting training protocols and safety requirements. Rest assured that your pets will be left happy and healthy!

“Diana has taken care of my frisky Laborador Retreiver Teddy several times, and I could not recommend her more highly. She is reliable, prompt and trustworthy, and most importantly knowledgeable and very experienced with dogs. Diana is a gem, and your dog will be lucky to have her care for them!”

“Betsy was wonderful, dependable, and flexible. I appreciate her combination of professionalism and empathy-highly recommend her!”

About: As a pet sitter, I prioritize building trust with both pets and owners, ensuring open communication, personalized care, and a safe, comfortable environment for all animal companions. As a high school senior, my weekdays are occupied with school commitments, but I have availability on weekends to tend to any needs that arise. I make sure pets are safe and comfy. That means following instructions, keeping things clean, giving them what they need, and showing them lots of love.

“Kyle watched over my Labrador with a recent toe injury AND during a blistering 115 degree heat wave. While thousands of miles away I never worried with Kyle. He is incredibly dependable, easy going and flexible. You can’t go wrong with Kyle caring for your best friend.”

“Cathleen handled my two labs with love and care. She exudes a very calm nature and my dogs in a first walk without me had a great time. Cathleen is kind, caring and is energetic and is great in handling big dogs. We can hardly wait for our next time with her!”

“My dog and cats LOVE Bodhi, and so do I. She is super responsible and I always feel completely safe and confident leaving town when Bodhi is watching my pets. I know that they will get tons of love and attention, and that my home will also be respected and cared for. Hands down, Bodhi is the best pet sitter I have ever hired.”
