“Gidget had a blast staying a few days at Michael and Melissa's home. Bonus...she got to play with kids, Mr Bubbles and a bird!!!! Michael and Melissa were very accommodating. Gidget is looking forward to the next visit! Highly recommend for your furry family member if it's for a day or several days!”
“"I wanted to send a huge thank you for taking such amazing care of my dog! I really appreciate you keeping me updated with pics—it made me feel so much better knowing my furry baby was in good hands. You went above and beyond, and I'm so grateful! I can tell my puppy was in good hands just by me picking her up she still went inside her house and said goodbye with a lick to Tasha and that made me feel comfortable. I will so recommend her and I will be coming back to her soon. Thank you 😊”
“Wenchi was super sweet and provided me with updates and pictures of Cosmo during his stay with her! He was a very happy wiggly pup when I went to pick him up. Thank you!”
“Diyanna was such an amazing caregiver for my dog while we were away. She sent pics and took great care of Jax and I felt that she welcomed him into her home. I will definitely be back to use her on our next vacation.”
“Lupe was quite accommodating. My Labrador was in a clean environment with other dogs, but she chose to stay with Lupe's visiting father and hung out outdoors a lot with him. In the event it becomes necessary, I would book with Lupe again.”
“Randi and her family are a great temporary home for your dogs. They treated our dog Toby like their own with love and care. We will gladly bring him back to them in the future and we will recommend Randi to our friends and family!”
“This was Keylo's first time away from me. Brian was amazing with him. He provided me with frequent updates and was super patient with my baby. Brian gave me tips on how to work with Keylo's attachment whining which was very helpful. I highly recommend Brian for any first timers, he really took great care of my baby. Thank you Brian!”
“Maria had our 2 dogs for 11 days and she did a phenomenal job. I got daily pictures and videos. She even sent them home with little treats that she made homemade. She treated our dogs like family while we were out of the country. I can't say enough about how much I appreciate her for not having us worried during our vacation. We knew that they were safe and well taken care of, thanks again, Maria!”
“Catherine is so great and sweet with my Lola (shiba inu). I feel very comfortable with having her watch Lola and her home is lovely. I’ve already booked another set of days with her to board my pup :)”
“Winnie loved her stay with Jaqueline! She was extremely responsive and kept us updated with great photos throughout the stay. Highly recommend, and we’d definitely book again!”
“Katherine is absolutely amazing. Our 16 year old anxiety ridden Morkie spent 3 days and nights with her and every thing was great. Katherine only takes one pet at a time and really gave Delilah special attention including having her snuggle up with her at night and take her for nice long walks.”
“Sandra was an excellent caregiver. This was the first time I have ever boarded my cat and I should have done it for a shorter time or a trial. Sandra was very tuned in to my cats needs and kept us updated on how he was doing. We did pick him up early but not because of anything Sandra did, it was all me and my cats broken heart because I just left him. Thank you to Sandra for noticing our baby missed us. Next time I board him it will only be for a weekend or in my home where he is used to, but I would use Sandra again.”

“Morgan was so wonderful! Needed a mid day drop-in for my senior dog. Reached out with only a day or so notice (my fault) and Morgan was able to help no problem! Always nice to have a sitter in the area you can count on and trust, Morgan is definitely on my list ᵕ̈”
“Cora was a total lifesaver for our post-op recovering kitty. Flexible, knowledge and clearly experienced. Was able to jump right in and provide high level of kitty care. Highly recommend!”
About: When I wasn’t with my horse or loving on my own pets, I was the go-to pet sitter for family and the neighborhood dog walker for anyone who needed an extra hand. I’ve had animals in my life for as long as I can remember—including my sweet puppy Blossom, who was in a wheelchair and had hydrocephalus (water on the brain). She needed round-the-clock care, and I was there for every moment, so I understand how much love, patience, and attention pets deserve—especially those with special needs. I’m caring, loving, and endlessly patient, and I promise to treat your fur baby like my own. Whether it’s a walk, a cuddle, or a good old-fashioned game of fetch, I look forward to being the reason your pet can “smile” during the day… even if I have to make silly faces or use my best squeaky-toy voice to do it! Lol. I already spend part of my week walking dogs for a friend, and it’s one of my favorite parts of the day. Since I work from home, I’ve got plenty of flexibility for walks, hikes, playtime, and all the tail wags and happy zoomies your pet needs! Let me know what YOU prefer for your fur baby. (: I’m more than happy—and honestly, I prefer—to come to you! It gives me a nice break during my workday and lets me spend quality time with your pet in their own space. I’m great at reading animal behavior and body language, and I have experience caring for pets with special needs (I had my own), as well as handling aggressive behavior, food aggression, nervousness (I’ve fostered pups with these challenges), training, crate training, and more. Just let me know what your pet needs, and I’ll adapt to make them comfortable and happy!
About: I’ve been taking care of pets for as long as I can remember. I’ve had all kinds of animals growing up. My grandmother even had a drop in home visit pet business for almost 10 years. And I would help a lot of the times. I currently have one cat with me. My other cat was a bit old to travel, so sadly I had to leave her in Oregon. I look forward to meeting future clients!
“Siarra took the best care of our cat, Marbles, while we were away for the holiday! She is super communicative and spent time and played with Marbs, and we got the sweetest picture updates of our baby who looked so happy to get visits and love! Thanks, Siarra!!!! We appreciate how thoughtful and loving you were to our kitten while we were away!!!”
“Cambryel Is a dog whisperer. My dog who gets easily overexcited was completely relaxed immediately when he met her the first time. Then she came back for the second time when I wasn't home to see how he would be, and he was again very mellow. She has a calming presence for super active dogs, like doodles, and also experience with the more energetic breeds.”

“Andrew was awesome from the moment I met him. He immediately invited me in to take a look at the place and as you can tell, he was very opening had no problems answering questions and in a very good neighborhood in Fairfield. My Summer has separation anxiety and she fell in love immediately with his other dogs who are friendly and lovable as well had nothing but good vibes the second I met him and within 5 to 10 minutes I was ready to schedule my puppy play care up with him. Plan on going back to him hopefully he’s available when needed. Can’t wait. I know Summer ‘s excited. thank you, Andrew for all the love and care you have towards animals and my Summer. You’re an awesome person. thank you.”

About: I have grown up with animals my whole life ever since i can remember. I love all animals, however dogs have a special place in my heart. I am Deaf, and dogs seem to be very comfortable and protective with me as if they know about my deafness. I have taught my dogs basic tricks using sign language such as "sit, stay, friend (or paw shake), lay down". I absolutely love cuddling with my dogs and watching them be silly. I currently assist my older sister with baby sitting my autistic niece part time. I am available from 11am-2:00pm however if you need anything in the evenings, I am open to that as well, just feel free to ask! :) I always approach new dogs with calm and soft energy and will generally allow them to come to me and sniff. I am very patient to those who may feel anxious. I know how to read a dogs body language. I will always communicate with you about your pets needs.
About: Lifelong Animal Lover with 40+ Years of Hands-On Pet Care Experience I’ve been a dedicated pet owner for more than 40 years, caring for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities. My lifelong experience has given me a strong understanding of animal behavior, routines, and the importance of patience, consistency, and trust. In addition to caring for my own pets, I have periodically fostered animals to help prepare them for successful adoption into loving homes. This experience has included helping pets adjust to new environments, providing comfort and structure, reinforcing positive behaviors, and giving them the attention they need to thrive. Whether your pet needs a dependable walk, companionship while you’re away, or calm and attentive care, I provide a safe, loving, and responsible environment. I treat every pet as if they were my own. I own my own business and primarily work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to provide attentive pet care. Your pet will receive regular walks, playtime, companionship, and personalized attention throughout the day. I’m able to accommodate feeding schedules, potty breaks, exercise needs, and extra cuddle time to help them feel safe, happy, and comfortable. I provide a safe, calm, and loving environment for every pet in my care. I have a secure fenced yard for supervised outdoor play, exercise, and bathroom breaks. Inside the home, pets have a clean, comfortable space to relax and feel at ease. I closely follow each pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, medications if needed, walks, and preferred sleeping arrangements. In a client’s home, I respect your space while making sure your pet feels secure, cared for, and stress-free in their familiar environment. Safety, trust, patience, and consistent attention are always my top priorities.
About: I've had multiple pets all my life and seen many into old age, when they need special care. I'm not just looking for the perfect rpretty pet, but I want you to feel confident and at ease with the care and love I will give your furry family member I'm retired so can give full time care to your pet. My yard is large and fully fenced in. the house is pet friendly as well. I am retired so mostly home but do go out occasionally for shopping and other daily activities. I would prefer to crate your dog for my out periods. Also your dogs should be house broken, I will take them out as often as needed for bathroom breaks I will treat all your pets as if they were my own, and hope we can build a long and trusting relationship with each other. If they like pets, cuddles and treats, that's even better!
“Mackenzie was super flexible, communicative and professional. My pup had a great time under her watchful eye. She followed all of my directions to a tee and then some. She went above and beyond to make sure my girl was happy as well as keep me updated on her stay. If you’re looking for someone seasoned to take care of your pets, Mackenzie is your gal!”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is the level of love, patience, and personalized care I give every dog as if they were my own. I understand that every pup has a unique personality, routine, and comfort level, so I take the time to make sure they feel safe, happy, and at home while you’re away. I have experience caring for puppies who need extra attention, structure, potty training support, and plenty of playtime, as well as senior dogs who require a calmer environment, medication administration, slower walks, and gentle care. I’m attentive to body language, behavior, and individual needs, which helps dogs quickly build trust and feel comfortable with me. Whether your dog is energetic and playful, shy and anxious, or older and needing extra patience, I provide reliable supervision, lots of affection, consistent communication, and a clean, stress-free environment. My goal is not just to “watch” your pet it’s to give them a positive experience where they feel loved, secure, and excited to come back. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work part-time and mainly from home, which allows me to give dogs plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship throughout the day. I’m able to maintain a flexible schedule for walks, potty breaks, feeding times, playtime, and cuddle time, while also making sure each pet sticks to their normal routine as closely as possible. Since I’m home most of the time, pets are rarely left alone for long periods, which helps them feel comfortable, safe, and less anxious while their owners are away. I truly enjoy having animals around and make their care a priority in my everyday life, giving them lots of love, patience, and one on one attention. I provide a safe, clean, and comfortable home environment where dogs are treated like part of the family. Since I work part-time and mainly from home, I’m able to give pets plenty of supervision, attention, potty breaks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. Dogs staying in my home are welcome to roam freely and relax comfortably in the house rather than being confined, helping them feel more at ease and at home during their stay. I can also crate dogs if requested by the owner or if it’s part of the dog’s normal routine for sleeping, feeding, or downtime. I always prioritize safety by carefully monitoring interactions, maintaining a calm environment, and following each dog’s specific care instructions, routines, dietary needs, and comfort levels. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, loved, stress free, and well cared for while giving owners peace of mind knowing their dog is in good hands.
“Robin's doggy daycare was perfect for our 2-year-old Golden Doodle. She provides a safe home environment and supervised play for the dogs. He had not been to a doggy daycare before this, so I was unsure if he would be anxious. But he settled in right away. We will definitely leave him with Robin again.”
“Sara was very helpful from start to finish. I had a last-minute booking and she accepted. She was very accommodating of my schedule for the day, which gave me flexibility in my travel plans.I received sweet photos of my dog Teddy throughout the day. He clearly had a good time and was very relaxed when I picked him up . I would definitely work with Sara again. I appreciated her timely and consistent communication and felt that Teddy was very well cared for.”
About: My goal is to create a fun and loving home away from home for your furry friend! I’ll send you pics of your pup while we go on walks and play. I'm currently working from home in American Canyon and am available during the days to care for your pup! While mainly open to walking and drop in visits, I can consider home stays for dogs I get more comfortable with. I tailor my care to each doggy’s needs and service as requested. For dog walking, I typically do 30-minute walks in the park, but can adjust based on the dog's breed, energy level, and personality!
About: I Love dogs, I dog walk and dog sit my neighbors dog regularly, I use to volunteer in the animal shelter, I use to have my own 2 dogs until they peacefully passed. Im working part time on call so I can really choose my schedule whenever however I want so I will always have plenty of time to watch your pets! I have two quiet vaccinated and spayed cats, If your animal isn’t comfortable with that they can stay in the other room door closed they spend most of there time in a separate room anyway.

About: I’ve cared for pets and livestock my entire life, and animals have always been a huge part of my daily life. What sets me apart is that I live on spacious property, giving dogs plenty of room to explore, play, and enjoy a calm environment while they’re away from home. I treat every animal like my own and strive to make them feel safe, loved, and comfortable during their stay. Pet care naturally fits into my daily routine because caring for animals has always been part of my lifestyle. Living on property means I’m consistently outside and active, so dogs get plenty of attention, exercise, potty breaks, and playtime throughout the day — not just scheduled walks. I’m used to maintaining routines for both pets and livestock, so feeding schedules, medications, supervision, and individual care needs are something I take seriously. I enjoy creating a calm, safe environment where pets feel comfortable and cared for while their owners are away. When caring for pets in my home, I focus on creating a safe, comfortable, and low-stress environment where they can feel relaxed and part of the family. Because I live on property, dogs have space to play, explore, and get exercise throughout the day while still being closely supervised. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, medications, and any special instructions from the owner. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make it a priority to keep their pets comfortable by maintaining their usual routine and environment. I provide dependable care, attention, exercise, feeding, fresh water, cleanup, and lots of affection while also respecting the client’s home and instructions. I understand how important consistency is for animals, and I work to make their time away from their owners as stress-free as possible.
“Haruka and Daniel were wonderful, and incredibly kind! My dog Sybil had a little trouble with some anxiety after I left and they did a great job keeping her comfortable despite it and keeping me updated. By the time I got there she was right at home and ready to play! We'd definitely love to book again next time!”

“Mariah is wonderful with my 2-year-old German shepherd, Falko. He listens to her on his walks, and she gives me great recaps on his behavior and how the walk went. Falko gets really excited when Mariah comes to walk him. We will definitely continue to ask Mariah to come and walk Falko - it is a great help, and we have peace of mind that he is in good hands.”

“Linda was very caring and reliable. She took great care of my dog during the walks and always made sure he was safe and happy. I really appreciate her patience, responsibility, and attention to detail. Highly recommended!”
About: My first actual job was at Pet clinic where i learned most of my experience with all types of pets and I worked at a doggy day care where i learned more about dogs behaviors a little more. I do have 3 cats of my own so I’m usually with them most of the time but would love to make time to get to know more pets and walk them and give them the best care. I would prefer to do check ins and could stay the night if needed, I currently can’t have pets over at my place but there are alternatives that we can sort out that you are comfortable with.
“Emily was so kind with my chihuahua mix. My dog is not the typical dog who wants to walk or play fetch but Emily was very patient with her and gave my pup a friendly face every day!! Emily is the best!!”

“Lupe was quite accommodating. My Labrador was in a clean environment with other dogs, but she chose to stay with Lupe's visiting father and hung out outdoors a lot with him. In the event it becomes necessary, I would book with Lupe again.”
“Randi and her family are a great temporary home for your dogs. They treated our dog Toby like their own with love and care. We will gladly bring him back to them in the future and we will recommend Randi to our friends and family!”
“Edward had another wonderful stay with Jessie. He gets so excited when he sees her. He’s so much happier staying with her than at a boarding kennel and she takes great care of him.”
“Catherine is so great and sweet with my Lola (shiba inu). I feel very comfortable with having her watch Lola and her home is lovely. I’ve already booked another set of days with her to board my pup :)”
About: I’ve cared for cats and dogs for friends and family in London, Chicago and now Novato, and I genuinely love having animals around. I’ve looked after up to three dogs at once, including Australian Shepherds, Blue Heelers, puppies and other high-energy dogs, as well as Maine Coon cats. I also have a cat of my own, so I completely understand that every animal has their own personality, routine and quirks! I’m patient, easygoing and very comfortable working with animals who may be nervous, energetic, independent or a little more challenging. I know how stressful it can feel leaving a pet when they aren’t the easiest animal, and my goal is always to make sure they feel safe, happy and cared for while giving their owners peace of mind. I’m a full-time teacher, so I’m usually home by around 4pm on weekdays and have some morning availability depending on my school schedule. I’m also generally very available during school holidays, including Thanksgiving, Christmas, summer and long weekends. I do travel occasionally to visit my family in Ireland, but I’m usually around and happy to work around your plans when I can. I have a separate room where my cat can have her own space, so I’m happy to discuss overnight stays with dogs who are comfortable around cats. If your dog and my cat aren’t a good match, that’s completely okay — I’ll always prioritize everyone’s safety and comfort. I would absolutely love to have a dog of my own one day, but for now pet sitting lets me enjoy spending time with animals while still having the flexibility to travel and visit my family. I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own and make sure they get plenty of attention, care, walks, playtime and affection while you’re away. Schedule I’m a full-time teacher during the week and am usually home by around 4pm, with some morning availability depending on my school schedule. I’m available for evening walks and visits, and I have much more flexibility on weekends and during school holidays, including Thanksgiving, Christmas, summer and long weekends. I do travel occasionally to visit family, so I always make sure my availability is clear and only accept bookings I can fully commit to. I adore all animals- spiders, dragons you name it 😂 my partner says I care more about them than humans. take the safety and comfort of every pet seriously. In my home, I provide a calm, clean and comfortable environment with plenty of attention, walks and playtime while also respecting when a pet needs space. I have a separate room where my cat can stay if a visiting dog is not comfortable around cats. For care in a client’s home, I follow your pet’s normal routine and your instructions closely, including feeding, walks, litter cleaning, medication and any specific safety needs. I’m patient with nervous, energetic or more challenging animals and will always prioritize their wellbeing and communicate with you if anything seems unusual.
“Jeanette was great with our dog, her whole family was very sweet and accommodating. Jeanette always maintained consistent communication, and we really appreciated her taking our relatively new rescue on fairly short notice. We were very satisfied with our dogs stay with her.”
“Susan was incredible! She was accommodating with our needs and requests. Our dog fell in love right away! Her property was awesome and our dog didn’t seem to want to leave! Thank you Susan, for taking such good care of our pup!”
“Robin was fantastic! She was quick to respond to messages and flexible with our drop off and pickup times. Maple and her dog got along well and both were tired at the end of the afternoon. Boarding with Robin was an easy and great experience overall, we would love to return next time we're in Sonoma!”
“Laura was friendly, profressional, and made us feel at such ease leaving our baby Digit with her. We were out of thr country and requested emails and she was more than happy to oblige. Laura provided frequent updates and our pup looked happy and healthy in every picture sent. Laura dogs were passive and easy for our dog to get along with. Overall I would definitely recommend Laura”
“Channing was great! I’m so glad we were able to make it work last minute. Channing sent pupdates each day and kept us in the loop which helped us relax and enjoy our trip. We have a special pupper in more than one way and Channing was able to match his style. Will definitely be using Channing in the future.”
“Angela was so kind and caring with my pup, Bruno. He is a sensitive guy and she did a great job of putting him at ease. It was a special vacation for him as well since he got to lounge on the sofa and sleep in her bed - I was thrilled that she spoiled him with special treatment. He even got to make a new pupoy friend while staying with her.”
“Stacie and her family were amazing! They took such great care of Ginger and gave her so much love and attention. I felt completely comfortable knowing she was safe and happy with them. Stacie was always quick to respond and sent photos while we were away, which we really appreciated. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone to care for their dog.”
