House Sitting Tyrone

“Andrea is an amazing dog sitter. My dog is highly anxious and reactive but is very happy and comfortable with Andrea. I came home to a happy dog and my house was cleaner than when I left it! Indie and I really hope Andrea will come stay again.”

“Wonderful first time with our pup! Our youngster was happy and relaxed and accepted Jillian as his new friend. She took great care of him (with plays, potty breaks, and a watchful eye) while we were away.”

“Lynette was so great! The pictures she sent confirmed that the dogs were totally relaxed and happy, and it made it so easy for me to enjoy the time away. Thanks, Lynette!”

“We highly recommend Lauren to watch your fur baby. We initially reached out to Lauren to see if she could watch our sweet old girl (19 y.o. dog); she responded within 15 minutes confirming that she was available. A few days before, Lauren stopped by our apartment to receive our key and meet our pup. She brought a notebook to write down all instructions / important notes. Her demeaning was soft and positive, and already we knew she was a great fit. On the day of our leave, Lauren was in regular correspondence about her timing and about activities with our girl. She took a few picture updates. Everything went very smooth. She clearly had no problem watching our elderly dog. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to watch your loved one fur pup, elderly or otherwise.”

“Excellent in every way! Great communication, regular photos and updates, on time and organized, and left the house as clean as it was when we left. Solved years worth of anxiety and pet sitting conundrums for us!”

About: Hi, I’m Bernadette! Caring for animals isn’t just something I’ve done my entire life—it's something I love. I’m a former pet shop owner and have been a professional pet sitter for over 30 years. I’ve cared for just about every kind of pet (from horses to mice), but dogs have always been my faves. I offer: 🐾 Little Dog daycare in my home 🐾 Little Dog Overnight Boarding in my home 🐾 Drop-in visits to your home within Graton for dogs, cats, and other pets 🐾 Occasionally I'm available to house sit when I don't have any boarders booked My home is conveniently located near the Graton town center, serving West Sonoma County, CA. A Cozy, Calm Environment for Small Dogs: I specialize in small dogs (up to 15 lbs), with occasional exceptions. Senior dogs very are welcome! Your friendly, quiet little companion will enjoy spending time with my two sweet senior dogs in a peaceful home setting. Because I live in close proximity to neighbors, I’m not able to accept frequent barkers. Comfort & Safety First: Dogs have access to a secure, fenced yard for fresh air and exercise. I let dogs out at least every couple of hours during the day. I supervise outdoor time carefully. Overnight rates cover a full 24-hour period. Since I work from home, I’m almost always around—which means your dog receives consistent supervision, attention, and care. I’m happy to accommodate most special needs with advance discussion. (Sadly, due to my new living situation, I can no longer take puppies unless they are very calm, reliably house trained, and able to wear a diaper or relax in a crate when in the house.) IMPORTANT: To help visiting pups settle in, I require dogs to wear a diaper initially, until I’m confident they’re reliably house-trained (new environments can trigger marking behaviors, especially in males). If your dog eats raw food, please provide it pre-portioned into individual meals (I'm vegan and prefer not to handle raw meat). Bringing their own bed is highly recommended to help them feel secure and comfortable. The only other things they need are a leash and food. Most dogs relax and settle in within a few hours—and they receive plenty of love. If you’re looking for a calm, attentive, experienced home environment for your small dog, I’d love to meet you both! 🐶 NOTE: Mr. Q, my blue and gold macaw, prefers dogs who don't try to eat him! I work from home, so I'm almost always around to interact with your pets. Most dogs love coming here and can't wait to get in the front door! Little dogs enjoy hanging out in my quiet home and fenced yard with my two mellow old pups. Even most dogs with separation anxiety quickly relax and have fun. It's like a doggie play date!

“Veronica is aways wonderful. She is very respectful, kind, and takes great care of our dog. The peace of mind she gives to us when she is with our princes Kaylee is priceless.”

“Olivia did an amazing job taking care of our four pups, which includes a senior French bulldog, two very sweet, but very large and powerful Dogo Argentinos, and a second, very mischievous escape artist French bulldog. She took time to understand each dog’s unique personality and tailors her care to each. She was also extremely communicative, and sent us pics multiple times a day. Highly recommend!”

Dayna R.

“We are so happy we found Michele! She stayed at our place one night with our dog, Chucky. She sent frequent updates and pictures and we could tell he was happy and well cared for. She also left our house as clean as we left it. Thank you so much, Michele!”

Erin C.

“Thank you, Holly for your service in watching Ryder and being with him. Sorry it took me so long to get back to you. I loved the pictures you sent from the trips you made to the park. My brother said rides in the car are what he lives for. I appreciate your efforts to entertain him. It helps so much to be relieved knowing there is someone there for him. He gets lonely so easily.”

Michael D.

“Tamara has a lovely repore with animals. She is a good communicater and sent several updates while we were away. All our pets where well cared for and happy when we reurned.”

Angie y.

“I cannot say enough wonderful things about Rithy! She is timely, communicative and treats your pet like they’re her own. This was my first time using Rover and I feel lucky to have found Rithy. She stayed with Clover for the weekend, texted me photos of their adventures, and she made homemade food for Clover! I think they both had a great weekend together.”

Heather C.

“Gina did such a great job taking care of the place and making sure I had regular updates and photos throughout my trip. It meant a lot to have that peace of mind. She is truly an animal lover and I am so glad I found her! Definitely would recommend. Excellent job!”

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.

“Rosemary was incredibly accommodating, receptive, followed instructions well, and ensured our dogs were safe and happy. I would highly recommend her and would book again. Thank you for your great care!”

About: What sets me apart is my high energy, adaptability, and genuine attentiveness to each pet’s unique needs. Whether it’s an energetic kitten, a shy senior cat, or a playful pup, I adjust my care style to match their personality and routine. I’m not just here to feed and walk I’m here to make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I take pride in creating a calm and fun environment, giving you peace of mind and your pet a new best friend. As a student with an open and flexible schedule, I’m able to easily fit pet care into my daily routine. I have the time and availability to provide consistent, reliable care throughout the week. I make sure pets feel comfortable and safe, whether they're in my home or theirs. I follow their usual routines as closely as possible—feeding schedules, walk times, play, and any special instructions. I'm attentive to their behavior and needs, and I always keep the space clean, calm, and pet-friendly. My goal is to create a low-stress, positive environment while you're away.

“Alex took great care of our house, elderly dog and young cat. He was very responsive and kept us updated during the trip. Would highly recommend Alex to take care of pets and house!”

“Evan watched our pup on short notice, and we were super happy with how everything went. We were away for the weekend and came home to a happy dog and a clean house. Our dog needs extra attention on walks due to reactivity and also has specific feeding instructions, and Evan was incredibly accommodating with all of it. He even came over for an in-person visit beforehand, and it was clear how conscientious he is and how important it was to him to make sure he was a good fit for our dog. That built a lot of trust for us. He also sent photos and updates over the weekend was very rad. We’d definitely use him again, and plan to next time a trip comes up. 5/5 recommend.”

Spencer A.

“Emilie is reliable, communicative and goes above and beyond to care for your pet. She came by the house ahead of time to be sure she was clear about expectations and sent updates while I was away. She was trustworthy, dependable and kind to my dog while I was away and it helped me ease the anxiety I had with leaving him home. I recommend Emilie and will call her again.”

Tara P.

“Susan was a delight to work with! She was communicative And took great care of our house and pets. I would happily work with her again!”
