“We loved using Lauren for our dog’s weekend stay! She provided daily updates and accommodated our dogs needs really well. Will definitely use her services again!”
“Had a really good experience with Patricia while we were in out of town. She was reliable, easy to communicate with, and took great care of Bo while we were away. We appreciated the updates and knowing she was being looked after. It made traveling a lot less stressful, and we came home to a happy dog. Would definitely use her and her nice family again!”
“My cat was wonderfully well cared for during an extended holiday stay! I received pictures and updates each day and it was very obvious how at home she felt. When my cat took to a certain area in the house, Heather made it a nice comfy spot for her to relax and live her best life in a home away from home. I had a last a minute schedule change, and everything couldn't have been handled more conveniently. Wonderful experience, great communication, and a very happy cat!”
“David was wonderful! Arcee had plenty of space to roam and a sweet buddy to hang out with. He sent us a photo of her looking so happy. This really is the perfect doggie home away from home.”

“Earl was great to work with! He is easy going and great with animals. He was flexible with drop off and pick up times. I would definitely recommend this provider and we will surely be using him again in the future.”
“Bernadette was very flexible when I needed to change my drop off time. She has a lovely shady yard and beautifully calm home. My DAISEY really enjoyed her stay there. I highly recommend Bernadette. Her two little doggies were great playmates.”
“Ana was absolutely amazing with my Goldendoodle! She took such great care of him, kept me updated, and made me feel completely at ease while I was away. It was clear he was happy, comfortable, and well loved in her care. I would definitely trust Ana to watch him again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring pet sitter. Thank you so much, Ana!! :)”
“Melissa was so thoughtful and kind to both Daisy and I. It was our first time leaving Daisy since we adopted her. Melissa took the time to let us visit her home for a meet-and -greet and sniffs of her property a few days before Daisy’s stay. Melissa was so thoughtful and attentive to Daisy’s needs. I have no doubt that Daisy is in good hands with Melissa .”

About: I will spoil your dog with attention and provide you with complete peace of mind. You can rest assured that your dog is safe and happy and getting the care you specify (such as health needs or special diet) and the love your dog wants (games, walks, toys, treats, hugs, and other canine amusements). My work is part-time, online, and at my own pace, so I can easily shift my attention to your dog's needs for walks and playtime. I have a small fenced yard with artificial grass, and there is a large park at the end of the street, two or three small parks in the neighborhood, and a 2-mile trail to downtown. I have whatever a dog needs but ideally, pets should arrive with their own favorite "furniture," toys, and treats.
“Oksana was a great sitter for my elder pup. She made her feel right at home and my dog wasn’t even anxious at her house on the 4th of July when the fireworks happened. Oksana was easy to communicate with too. Would highly recommend her dog sitting services.”
About: I’m a Santa Rosa/Sonoma County local and lifelong animal lover with experience caring for cats of all personalities. We have an easygoing outdoor cat of our own who we absolutely adore, so I understand that cats like their routines, their space, and affection on their own terms! 🐱❤️ I’m happy to help with feeding, fresh water, litter box care, playtime, outdoor/indoor routines, and of course plenty of love and attention. I know how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your cat while you’re away, and I’ll treat yours with the same patience and care I give my own. I’m fortunate to have a flexible full-time job and work from home a few days a week, with the ability to work remotely longer when needed. This gives me plenty of flexibility to pop in and check on your pets throughout the day. I’m also free most weekends and never work past 5 PM Monday–Friday, so I can easily make time for walks, feedings, check-ins, playtime, and plenty of love and attention. I’ll treat every pet as if they were my own, whether I’m caring for them in their home or welcoming them into mine. I have a fenced yard and a pet-friendly home where their comfort and safety come first. To me, animals are family and deserve to be treated with love, patience, attention, and plenty of affection.
“Shelia took such great care of Leif with a last minute booking. She sent photos so I knew he was happy and cozy. She even took time to brush him and play with toys, and recommended senior supplements she used for her dogs. Looking forward to boarding with her again in the next couple weeks!”
“Five star +++ experience. I almost hate to leave a review because we want them all to ourselves! Lori & Frank treated my dogs like their own — they showered them with love and attention and took exceptional care of them. They sent adorable pictures and kept me updated (without being annoying about it) while I was out of the country for 9 days. They have a lovely cozy dog-friendly home, and a very nice fully fenced yard. They are both super kind dog lovers and also responsible adults so you can feel comfortable leaving your beloved pooch or pooches in their care. Just the best.”

About: I’ve had cats my entire life and understand them well. My sweet kitty just passed away at 20 years old and I’d love to help take care of yours. I frequently travel for work for weeks on end, but when I am home and able to cat-sit, my schedule can be completely flexible. Day / night. Since I only offer cat-sitting, I doubt that this section about my own house will matter much. Cats don’t like to be relocated for temporary purposes.
“Daniel kept us up to date with our pups while out of town. Making sure they were fed and walked. Our 3 dogs seemed very happy and calm on our arrival home which means that they had great walks and play time.”
“Ashleigh was the absolute best! She took wonderful care of our two cats, and they absolutely loved her. Even our very timid cat wouldn’t get off her lap, which says everything about how comfortable she felt with her. We loved getting updates while we were away and knew they were in great hands. We’d definitely book with her again!”
“Thanks to Berenice, we were able to make a last-minute trip. She does her best to accommodate and always takes care of the extra things, like a forgotten plant or mail. We can book travel without wondering what to do with our pet while gone!”
“Pam took excellent care of my pets - cats and hens - and kept me posted through WhatsApp about their status. Left the house clean and tidy - so will definitely hire her again!”
“Michael was fantastic. He gave us regular updates and went above and beyond with providing care to our cats. We would love to work with him again in the future.”
“Gina always makes me feel at ease when I travel because I know my cats are well taken care of. She’s very communicative and punctual! She also gave my kitty his medication, which I was so appreciative of. Gina’s the best, definitely recommend her.”
“Amanda is our go-to cat sitter. She is a wonderful communicator, gives detailed reports and sends multiple photos of our babies. One of our cats is very particular about who he likes and trusts, and he always comes out to see Amanda! Thank you Amanda!”
“Micki went above and beyond what we expected and took such great care of my two cats emotionally and physically! When I had a delay in my flight and changes to my plan she was so flexible and understanding. I wish I could give more than 5 stars!”
“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!”
“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!”
About: I grew up with many animals in our household from dogs, cats, turtles, birds, fish, and bunnies and always had a unique connection to them. I have an innate empathetic understanding with them. I have experience with training younger dogs, as well as taking care of elderly dogs. I have experience providing necessary medication if needed, as well as lots of love and snuggles and adventurous hikes or leisurely walks for elderly animals. Currently I have a cat and would love to have another dog but for now getting to take care of other people's dogs or cats would satisfy my desire to be around lots of animals. I am currently a full-time student and I work remotely online so my schedule is flexible and I can work from anywhere. I would prefer to watch dogs and cats in your home. I like to communicate with the owner of the pet and get a clear understanding if there is a particular feeding or walk schedule, as well as if medications are required, or crate preferences. I am happy to send a photo of your animal baby each day if you like daily check ups. I love communication so trust and understanding are developed between myself and the owner.

“Jen was great! We dropped Cooper off for the day and felt very comfortable leaving, knowing he was in great hands! Her two dogs were very sweet and were great companions for Cooper during his day there. When we picked Cooper up it was obvious he had a great day and was well taken care of. We would definitely bring Cooper back again when we are in the area.”

“I didn’t expect to need someone to watch our dogs for the day but they ended up having a little vacation of their own! Thank you sooo much! They were both happy when we picked up and we would plan a trip this way just so they could have a fun day with David again. While we had our own little vacation both our dogs did as well.”
“Bernadette was wonderful with my rescue puppy Isabel!! It was her first time being left with someone, and I felt calm and confident knowing she was in Bernadette’s care. Bernadette clearly knows so much about animals and was very kind, understanding, and knowledgeable about Isabel’s communication and needs. I highly recommend Bernadette!!”

“Melissa was incredible with our 5 month old puppy, Rocky! It was our first time leaving Rocky and I couldn’t have felt more comfortable with Melissa. She is very communicative, understands dogs very well, and helped train our pup. I look forward to booking again with Melissa in the future!”
“We booked Sheila last minute and she was able to accommodate care for Gabby. We booked a tour with Safari West which was less than 20 minutes from her house. When we got to her home, she greeted us and Gabby appeared to like Sheila right away, so much so that we called her “Aunty Sheila”. It made me feel at ease knowing that Gabby would be cared for by a stranger who felt like family. While we were away, Sheila sent us a photo of Gabby playing with a chew toy. Sheila’s home had everything Gabby needed (crate, toys, and a big fence yard. We would definitely use her again!”
About: I’ve had pets in my life since childhood, growing up on a farm with dogs, cats, and horses. Caring for pets is second nature to me. Since moving to the U. S. 20 years ago, I’ve looked after friends and neighbors’ dogs, including diabetic and senior pups that need extra love and attention. I treat every dog like family, with patience, kindness, and genuine care. I’m a UCLA nursing student currently doing clinical hours only three days a week, which gives me plenty of flexible time throughout the day. That means I’m able to give your pet lots of attention, playtime, and long walks. Whether it’s daily check-ins or longer stays, I can easily fit pet care into my schedule and make sure your pup feels loved and cared for. In your home, I follow your pet’s routine so they stay comfortable and stress-free. In my home, I have a fenced yard and a beautiful neighborhood for walks. I also stick closely to their usual schedule. No matter the place, your pet gets consistent, loving care.
About: Currently being a stay at home mother, my hours are very flexible! Growing up with cats and dogs, my kiddos and I are currently lacking the fun presence of furry friends! Although my apartment is not the biggest, allowing only one dog at a time allows all of my attention to be focused. If pets are to stay overnight you can expect daily walks, trips to dog parks and most likely a bath if we get too ambitious. I am an adventurous person that believes dogs have individual personalities and unique characteristics that should be embraced and loved. Allowing pets to cuddle up on the couch MAY be negotiated because I am a sucker for puppy eyes. I am currently a stay at home with my three kiddos. I home school, so including a dog in the mix is so much fun for us! We often go on walks and trips to the park. I have a fenced yard, doggie door for easy outside access and loving, gentle kids to keep your animals company with lots of love and play.
“Kyle and his wife did a great job watching my 2 small dogs all day long for 2 days. They made sure all their needs were met and updated me throughout the day with pictures. Thank you, guys!”
“Ashley made us feel very comfortable leaving our 2 pups with her. Our meet n greet with her, her pup and her baby went well. She was very communicative and sent photos and videos during their stay. We will definitely look her up again as we all (pups included) we’re happy with Ashley. Thank you again Ashley!!”
“Ellen was such a great sitter! I needed a Rover sitter last minute and she was able to help. She is very kind and communicative and I immediately felt comfortable leaving Grayson with her. She provided photo updates and reassured me he was fitting in well with her pups! I’ll definitely be a repeat customer! (Oh and she sent Grayson home with a stash of really good treats which he promptly reminded me of when we got home - thanks, Ellen!)”
“Great and easy experience dropping our high maintenance baby off with Christina for a few hours so we could go to a party in town. She was very chill and easy to correspond with. He slept the whole way home so obviously had a good visit with her. Thank you, Christina!”

“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.”
“Mabel loves Berenice. She does a wonderful job taking care of Mabel! She sends me updates on how her walk went. She stays in contact with me. I feel really comfortable with her taking care of Mabel while I’m at work. I recommend her to 100%.”
“Holly is the best and I highly recommend!!! She’s very attentive and quick to responses. Will continue to use her for future ! Also her children are the sweetest most behaved kids I’ve met in a long time. I know Mauka was in great hands !! 10000/10 ❤️”
“Sebastian did a fantastic job walking my dog! He was professional, reliable, and clearly cared about my dog’s well-being. I came home to a happy, relaxed pup, and I couldn’t be more pleased. I highly recommend Sebastian!”
“Sarah is such a loving and caring person with my dog. He absolutely loves her and her kids! She always keeps me updated on everything that’s going on with him and responds to every single one of my messages super quickly. I can tell he is happy, safe, and well cared for with her. I would definitely trust her with my dog again without hesitation. Highly recommend Sarah! ❤️🐶”
“Michael is rock solid reliable, a great communicator, and great with dogs. He was gentle with my older dog - particularly after a recent surgery. Highly recommend.”
“Amanda makes sure that Bella gets to sniff new places and stays stimulated during her walks or backyard playtime. She’s very conscientious and makes sure Bella gets lots of water to drink.”
About: I have five years of experience providing dependable house and pet sitting for multiple families, including stays of up to three weeks at a time. I understand how important it is to know that both your pets and your home are in good hands while you’re away. I’ve cared for cats, dogs, and even a ferret! I provide loving, attentive care to every furry friend, while also taking care of household needs like watering plants, collecting mail, and keeping an eye on the home. My goal is to help pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while giving their families peace of mind. After a career as an engineer and geologist with the State of California, I’m happily retired and enjoying a flexible schedule. When I’m not fan-girling over rocks or spending time at the bowling alley, I’m probably fan-girling over someone’s furry friend! Retirement gives me plenty of time to provide attentive pet care, and I can accommodate most schedules, including daytime visits, evenings, weekends, and overnight stays. My goal is for your pets to feel safe, loved, and comfortable in your absence. I’ll treat them with the same patience, kindness, and care I would want for my own pets.
“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: I grew up in a neighborhood my friends used to call “the farm”. We had 3 dogs, one neighbor had chickens, one neighbor had horses, and another neighbor had goats. Along with various dogs and cats at each house. Because I was the oldest kid in the neighborhood, I was the go-to person anytime a neighbor needed a house sitter or even just needed me to feed their pet dinner since they were out late. When I got older and started driving, I began dog sitting for our large group of friends, taking care of all sizes of dogs, cats, and the occasional reptile. Although I work part-time, I am generally available 7 days a week for house sitting. I am willing to accommodate crazy schedules and last minute plans if need be. I have a small home but a big yard, so while I can’t accommodate boarding, I have a large outdoor space and my own pup that is eager for play dates during the day. As for house sitting, I provide attentive, personalized care in my client’s home so your pets can stay comfortable in their familiar environment. I follow each pet’s routine closely. With my history in the animal health field, I am comfortable administering any medications if needed. As a person who values communication, I provide regular ‘pupdates’ and pictures so owners feel confident their pets are happy, safe, and well cared for.

Animal owners are some of the best people I have known and I love meeting new friends, human and furry alike.

I care for the dogs as if they were my own and I hope that you will allow us the honor to care for you animals(s). I am currently working from home. I leave the house on occasion but can either take your dog with me for a car ride if they like that, leave your dog home or if you would prefer, crate it for a short time.

About: I've had the privilege of being a dog mom for the last 13 years which lands me a ton of experience caring for dogs but I love caring for all animals! I'm currently freelancing part time and have the flexibility (especially during the day) to make house calls and go for daily walks. I'm also available weekends!

About: I have taken care of pets since I was small. Was raised on a farm so have always had a heart for all four legged friends. Pet care is a natural part of my everyday routine. I’m home often throughout the day, which allows me to give pets consistent attention, playtime, and potty breaks. I structure my day around the animals in my care—morning feedings and walks, daytime check-ins, enrichment activities, and evening wind-down time. Because I’m already used to caring for pets and managing a household, integrating your pet’s needs into my schedule is easy and enjoyable. Their comfort and routine always come first. When pets stay in my home, they get a safe, comfortable, and fun environment. I have a fully fenced yard where dogs can play, relax, and get plenty of fresh air. I also take pets on regular walks and, if the owner is comfortable with it, we enjoy outings to local dog parks for extra exercise and socialization. Inside my home, pets are treated like family—lots of affection, playtime, and a calm, clean space to rest. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, medication needs, and any special instructions. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I maintain their normal routine and make sure they feel secure in their familiar space. I provide regular walks, feeding, potty breaks, clean water, playtime, and lots of attention. I also keep owners updated with messages, photos, and notes so they always know how their pets are doing.

About: I’ve taken care of all types of dogs for 30 years. I have two Pittbull mixes , one boxer Pitt and one Pitt bulldog. The Pitt Bull Dog has intervertebral disk disease and used my training in occupational therapy and massage and did physical therapy with him myself so he could use his back legs again, after being paralyzed and needing a wheelchair. He’s now able to walk without his wheelchair. I’ve also taken pittbull training classes with them and am knowledgeable about training cues. I currently work as a distribution sales executive, and work from home, so have free time in the afternoons and weekends. I have a baby and two dogs of my own and would still be able to take some time to visit other dogs in my area. I can check on pets during the day or while clients are on vacation . I can take them on walks, let them out in the yard, play fetch , feed them , snuggle them, and even give medicine.

My work is part-time, online, and at my own pace, so I can easily shift my attention to your dog's needs for walks and playtime. I have a small fenced yard with artificial grass, and there is a large park at the end of the street, two or three small parks in the neighborhood, and a 2-mile trail to downtown. I have whatever a dog needs but ideally, pets should arrive with their own favorite "furniture," toys, and treats.
“Shelia took such great care of Leif with a last minute booking. She sent photos so I knew he was happy and cozy. She even took time to brush him and play with toys, and recommended senior supplements she used for her dogs. Looking forward to boarding with her again in the next couple weeks!”
“This has been our dog's second stay with Amber and Michael, and they have been fantastic! Amber keeps us informed with updates and pictures so that we can feel relaxed and confident that our dog is being well cared for. I would highly recommend them!”
About: I have several years of hands-on experience working with dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and temperaments. As a lead kennel technician, I’ve cared for dogs in both daycare and boarding settings, ensuring their safety, health, and well being. My experience includes supervising group play, recognizing canine body language, administering medications, feeding specialized diets, maintaining clean and sanitary environments, and responding calmly in high pressure situations. I’m passionate about providing compassionate care and creating a safe, positive experience for every dog while building trust with both pets and their owners. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine and something I genuinely enjoy. I prioritize making sure every pet receives the attention, exercise, enrichment, and care they need to stay happy and healthy. Whether it’s feeding, administering medications, maintaining a clean environment, or providing playtime and companionship, I understand the importance of consistency and reliability. Caring for animals isn’t just part of my work. it’s something I’m passionate about and committed to every day. Whether I’m caring for pets in my own home or in a client’s home, I focus on making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while maintaining their normal routine. In my home, pets have access to a large, secure backyard where they can run, play, explore, or simply relax in the sun. I also enjoy taking them on walks through my quiet neighborhood to provide exercise and mental stimulation. In a client’s home, I carefully follow all care instructions, including feeding schedules, medications, potty breaks, exercise, and any special routines, while making sure their home is respected and their pets receive plenty of attention, affection, and quality care.
“Lindsey was wonderful to work with! She made us feel comfortable leaving our dog with her overnight. She was able to give our dog medication and sent us regular pictures. Would absolutely work with her again! Great experience!”
“Sarah and her family did a trustworthy job taking care of my 7 month old puppy Mochi for 2 nights while we were at Scout Camp in Cazadero. She sent a ton of pictures from their outings & was super sweet. Thanks Sarah!”
“This was our first time boarding our dog and the experience with Dustin and his Rover partner was fantastic. Our dog appeared happy and healthy when we came to pick her up and we think that the socialization with the other dogs on the property was really good for her!”
“Lillie and her family were so kind and welcoming to my pup. She sent lots of pics while we were away and was very communicative around how he was doing. She seemed genuinely affectionate with him too so I know he was not short on receiving love. Super thankful for her care ❤️”
“Stacie was so communicative, friendly, and understanding. She sent me pictures daily of my girl, and was so kind in all of her messages. Her family is incredibly loving. I can’t wait for her to watch my girl again in the future because I know that she’s in capable and safe hands!”
