“We’re so grateful to Mark for taking such wonderful care of Brownie over the New Year holiday. Even with the rainy days, everything was perfect — Brownie was an absolute angel, relaxed, happy, and clearly right at home.

“Neil and Mariah are amazing dog sitters. They go above and beyond for Biscuit. Biscuit would only eat boiled meat while he was with them for a week and refused to eat other food. Neil and Mariah bought more chicken and prepared it for Biscuit. I highly recommend them.”
“Ms Whitney was amazing with Dasher she sent videos of him play and having fun. Whitney respond time was amazing she answered promptly which is a really big thing for me. I would highly recommend her if you need someone to watch your dog”
“I was very nervous to leave my Maltipoo with her because she’s never been with a dog sitter before and she’s very small and has separation anxiety too. But Laila was very good with her and made her feel at ease. I left my Lully with her for 5 hours and she did pretty well. She even played with Laila’s dog which she never plays with other dogs before. I will definitely take her to Laila again whenever I need a sitter.”

Sadly 3 of them have passed on at this point, and It's just myself and my 16 yr old husky mix Suki now.

I would also allow them inside the house, but not on furniture :). I am a very active person, I walk my own dog at least twice a day, and would be happy to walk even more with yours!

I'm able to dog proof areas that may have problems, and keep anything dangerous well put of reach. I'm also able to have secure spaces incase dogs need to destimulate away from others. They will never be left alone unless I'm strictly given instruction.

“Michael B. did an excellent job pet-sitting for Jewel and keeping us informed about how the visits were going. He was very conscientious and helped Jewel feel comfortable with him there. We highly recommend Michael for your pet-sitting needs!!”
About: Hello, my name is Adam. I have been living in Humboldt county for six years. It's a beautiful place to explore and learn about nature. I enjoy spending time with our furry friends. We understand each other and get along great. Dogs, depending on health conditions, want to run and play and establish bonds with their pack. They want guidance and discipline coupled with novelty. No matter the size your pet is a wolf inside. Excercise, specifically running in formation, and playful socializing helps their mental well being. Dogs experience anxiety and boredom just like we do. Behaviors like excessive licking and barking could be signs that something's up. Allow me to take your best friend on daily adventures while reinforcing the commands and desired behaviors that you have already established.
About: I truly believe that our pets deserve the best care that we can provide, and I know how stressful it can be to trust someone else to show the same level of love and attention for your furry family members as you do! Through pet sitting for the last 10 years, I’ve been able to care for a variety of pets and learn about each of their individual needs. I’ve cared for dogs, cats, horses, reptiles, and birds, and would love to meet your pets next! I have experience caring for young and old pets, and administering some types of medications (oral/topical, eyes/ears). I will provide enrichment activities and exercise for your pet while you’re away on a trip or just at work for a long day! I’m very comfortable around horses, and can provide feedings, stall cleanings, and exercise if desired. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to drop by for walks, playtimes, or feedings that best fit you and your pets schedule. I live locally in downtown Ferndale and have consistent transportation if you’re located farther out of town! I’m always respectful of my clients homes, their privacy and individual needs. I try to adhere to your pets normal routine. Whether it’s preparing their food *just* right, taking their favorite route on a walk, or playing their favorite game, your pet deserves the best care and attention while you’re away!
About: I have pet-sat and house-sat since I was 18 years old. I love working with animals and helping others by caretaking responsibilities. I am energized and playful with both cats and dogs. I have most of my experience with cats and dogs. I treat them with love and respect always. Sometimes I sing to them and brighten their spirits. I have many references for housesitting and pet sitting. I enjoy caretaking and stewarding peoples homes. I also enjoy being a helper and lightning others’ loads. My family dog passed away one year ago and I love any opportunity to connect with more dogs. They bring me so much joy and happiness. I am very patient and positive. Easy to communicate with. I am currently self-employed, doing jobs like dogsitting, dog walking, doula support, meal prepping and personal chef work so my schedule is very flexible and I can cater to your needs. I am a very respectful guest in other’s homes. I love to leave places better than when I first arrived. I enjoy playing with pets with their favorite toys or throwing the ball in the backyard. I am very available and flexible with my schedule so that provides ample opportunity for potty breaks, walking, playing and overall catering to pets’ needs.
About: Dogs are more than pets, they are part of the family. I have always loved animals, and I will love yours just the same. Life can get busy! It's important to make sure your fur baby feels loved even when their owners are away. I am responsible and active. I would love to take your pup along with me as I run and hike around the beautiful PNW terrain! I want to make sure that I create a personal connection with your dog and with you to ensure that I offer the best care for your dog! I have grown up around dogs, and I understand that each one has their own quirks and personalities. In addition, I love all animals and am eager to look after cats, rabbits, chickens... you name it! Thanks! I look forward to taking care of your pup!
“Anna watched my 6month old kitty, Glacier. She sent pictures and regular updates and my kitty seemed to enjoy having a new place to explore and play in! She was clearly well taken care of.”
About: I've had two pet cats at my home in southern California for over 5 years now. They are my sweet babies! I have been told by several people that cats especially seem to trust me and be comfortable in my presence, even those that are typically shy or distrustful of strangers. It's a common problem for people to violate cats' boundaries because they don't understand the differences between cat behavior and dog behavior. You can rest assured that I will show your best friend the respect they deserve.

I also have two large cat cages in my home where each of my cats sleep, but if needed, they can sleep in the same cage and the other one can be used to provide your pet some privacy, with their own food and water dishes. I have many many many interactive cat toys so even while i'm working, they can play with the toys that are attached to my desk and walls, along with scratching posts.

I am usually able to change my schedule howevers needed to accommodate you! I have no yard, but I happily walk my dogs 4 times a day, sometimes 6 depending on their needs or your dog's needs. I am a sober individual that can pay attention and care for your family member the whole time with no problem. Thank you!
About: I’ve dog sat for all my family and friends the past 10-15 years. I am very reliable and love to spend time with fur babies! I work full time but always go on walks in the morning / afternoon. I also am free on the weekends and am available to help out last minute I have a fenced in yard / patio around my house which is helpful when caring for dogs. I also love going on walks so I can keep them active :)
About: I am compassionate, attentive, and communicative when it comes to caring for your beloved pets. I care for your pets every need and make sure they are taken care of gently and are given lots of attention, affection, and treats. Your pets safety and comfort is my highest priority. I am willing to work around your schedule to meet your needs in a way that works the best for you. When house sitting, I will spend as much time at your home with your pet as I can, as well as taking care of any other obligations you need me too. I will set my daily schedule around our planned walk or drop in visit to make sure you and your pet are accommodated. I care for pets in home according to their owners instructions. I have no problem giving your pets medicine or following special requests. When I am watching your pet, I make sure that they are comfortable and happy at all times. I follow the routine they are used to as outlined by their owners instructions, and make sure they have had their meals for the day, walks, and bedtime all according to plan. I send updates and photos to the owner frequently, and when I receive a message from the client, I answer right away. I truly love caring for animals and their comfort, happiness, and safety is my biggest priority.
About: I've been looking after dogs since I was a kid. I've always had dogs, I've worked for vets and for pet supply stores, and one side of my family is littered with vets and farm type folks. I have a ton of experience with all sorts of animals, but I love dogs the most. Right now I'm not doing anything else that requires me to be anywhere at any particular time, so I am incredibly flexible as far as scheduling goes. I live in an apartment with my 35 pound wonder mutt named Puck, and we're not allowed to have any animal guests, but I am more than willing to come to your place and follow your rules. Puck can also be left with a sitter if his presence would be an issue. I follow your directions and I care for your pets and your home as instructed. I am a fairly fastidious person. I believe in returning your place and your pets to you in at least as good a condition as I find them.
About: Experienced and flexible. Well reviewed! Happy to provide references. I volunteered at Thundering Paws Animal Sanctuary all through my High School years in Austin TX. There isn't much I can't handle but I'm also aware dogs can have different personalities and different needs. I'd love to cater to your pet specifically! I am 100% self employed, and a part time stay-at-home pet/ plant dad! I'd love to make time to care for your pets as well! Obviously your pets are top priority but please let me know what I can do to keep your home safe and sound as well :)
About: I am adventurous, active, and love to explore new places. I can’t wait to spend time with your dog walking around my area and exploring dog friendly activities around this area. We can stay home or go on an adventure to your liking. Snuggles and love are included at no extra charge. I can administer medications if needed and will follow any specific instructions to a tee. My dog is my baby and I would only want her to be treated as such. I have been very successful using Rover as a customer, so I know the quality of service you and your dog are expecting and I insist on delivering that to you. Walking, running, playing, fetching, snuggling, hugging, and giving praise for being a great dog is what I specialize in:)
About: I had a small dog for over 10 years who was a beloved member of our family. She passed this previous winter and I wasn't able to be there because I was away at university. I want to make sure other pet parents feel secure that someone is there who genuinely cares for their pet. I also have two cats and a blue-tongued skink at my other house in southern California, and I've also had a scorpion and vinegaroon. I have a snake here with me in Arcata and I've cared for snakes since I was a young child. I've also petsat a bearded dragon. Cats and dogs are both fond of me, but I'm capable of caring for unique types of pets, as well! I'll be in Arcata the entire summer except for a week in early June, so if your usual university student sitter isn't around, I will be! I don't currently have a full-time job over the summer nor over the school year, so I'll be free to spend as much time with your pet as you desire or need. I don't have a yard, but if you need your pet to get some fresh air, I'm willing to take them wherever! I have a car that can fit your best friend if they like the beach, or the woods, or another fun spot that'll help them get exercise and stimulation while you're away.
About: I have pet-sat and house-sat since I was 18 years old. I love working with animals and helping others by caretaking responsibilities. I am energized and playful with both cats and dogs. I have most of my experience with cats and dogs. I treat them with love and respect always. Sometimes I sing to them and brighten their spirits. I have many references for housesitting and pet sitting. I enjoy caretaking and stewarding peoples homes. I also enjoy being a helper and lightning others’ loads. My family dog passed away one year ago and I love any opportunity to connect with more dogs. They bring me so much joy and happiness. I am very patient and positive. Easy to communicate with. I am currently self-employed, doing jobs like dogsitting, dog walking, doula support, meal prepping and personal chef work so my schedule is very flexible and I can cater to your needs. I am a very respectful guest in other’s homes. I love to leave places better than when I first arrived. I enjoy playing with pets with their favorite toys or throwing the ball in the backyard. I am very available and flexible with my schedule so that provides ample opportunity for potty breaks, walking, playing and overall catering to pets’ needs.
About: Dogs are more than pets, they are part of the family. I have always loved animals, and I will love yours just the same. Life can get busy! It's important to make sure your fur baby feels loved even when their owners are away. I am responsible and active. I would love to take your pup along with me as I run and hike around the beautiful PNW terrain! I want to make sure that I create a personal connection with your dog and with you to ensure that I offer the best care for your dog! I have grown up around dogs, and I understand that each one has their own quirks and personalities. In addition, I love all animals and am eager to look after cats, rabbits, chickens... you name it! Thanks! I look forward to taking care of your pup!

“We’re so grateful to Mark for taking such wonderful care of Brownie over the New Year holiday. Even with the rainy days, everything was perfect — Brownie was an absolute angel, relaxed, happy, and clearly right at home. She loved just hanging out and enjoying the holidays with Mark and his family. Thank you, Mark, for treating her like one of your own and giving us total peace of mind. We truly appreciate the great care and would absolutely recommend you!”

“Neil and Mariah are amazing dog sitters. They go above and beyond for Biscuit. Biscuit would only eat boiled meat while he was with them for a week and refused to eat other food. Neil and Mariah bought more chicken and prepared it for Biscuit. I highly recommend them.”
“Ms Whitney was amazing with Dasher she sent videos of him play and having fun. Whitney respond time was amazing she answered promptly which is a really big thing for me. I would highly recommend her if you need someone to watch your dog”
“I was very nervous to leave my Maltipoo with her because she’s never been with a dog sitter before and she’s very small and has separation anxiety too. But Laila was very good with her and made her feel at ease. I left my Lully with her for 5 hours and she did pretty well. She even played with Laila’s dog which she never plays with other dogs before. I will definitely take her to Laila again whenever I need a sitter.”

About: I have always been an animal lover. Since my teenage years we had dogs and cats in the house. Over the last 20 years I have lived with and cared for 2 dogs and two cats. Sadly 3 of them have passed on at this point, and It's just myself and my 16 yr old husky mix Suki now. I am only employed on a very part time basis, so I have a fairly open and flexible schedule for dog walking, home visits and boarding on most weekdays, and some weekends. I have a fenced back yard perfect for pets to hang out in, and there is also a covered area in the back yard if the weather is rainy. I would also allow them inside the house, but not on furniture :). I am a very active person, I walk my own dog at least twice a day, and would be happy to walk even more with yours!
“Halley was so nice & communicative throughout Micah's stay (~5 days). They spent plenty of time outside and even went to an event at the beach. When Micah came home he was tired & content. I definitely recommend Halley if you're looking for someone to care for your pet.”
“Cora and her place are outstanding! A fully fenced yard nestled in Myers Flat's natural wonder. With 3 friendly pups to play with our yellow lab was a happy camper while we got to explore the "no dog" redwood trails. Thanks Cora, we hope to be back soon!”
“Chandi took great care of my dog and sent cute photos while watching her. She took my booking last minute, and was super kind and attentive throughout! I would definitely book with her again the future. I felt comfortable leaving my dog with her and my dog is calm, happy, clean and safe which the most important thing. Thank you Chandi!! :)”
