“We were in town for a special occasion and Heather and Caleb were very accommodating to our needs. They were a pleasure to work with. They gave our fur baby the attention she needed. We would not hesitate using them again.”
“Lauren and her husband were great! Bailey was a little shy at first, but she got more comfortable and had a blast! They were flexible, sent pictures and updates, and took great care of Bailey!”
“Ciana and family are wonderful, welcoming, & loving furry friends. I was sent photos of my baby while I was away, this helped me know she was happy and was in good hands. All of my suggestions for care were used to better facilitate a good experience. My baby is blind, deaf and 15 years old, she needs to be watched closely and at all times while active, not an easy animal to board. Ciana food wonderfully, I have already booked another boarding appointment with her. I highly recommend Ciana.”
“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.”
“Rio is somewhat dog selective and took some time to get used to the other dogs, in the end seemed to have a fine time at Carl’s. Carl was great with regular updates while we were gone. Thanks Carl!”
“Susan was awesome, Flexible, responsive and kind! She sent pictures of our dogs having a blast on her three acre fenced property. Our dog especially loved lounging on the top step of the pool!”
“Alex and Bri were great! Our dog Casper looked super happy and content in their cozy home. Sent tons of pics and provided timely updates. Would consider using them again as a boarding option.”
“Angela was amazing with our dog, Gryffin! This was our first experience with Rover, and she made it all so easy. She shared pictures of Gryf while we were gone, and we could tell he loved staying with her!”
“Tucker always love to go to the farm and hang out with his retriever buddies. Jake and Shayla are great, attentive and professional. He gets so much love there, I feel good about leaving him when I’m away.”
“Super caring and accommodating. Tiffany sent notes and pictures during Ramble’s stay and allowed me to grab Ramble for a few hours so that I could treat him for a walk and dinner date.”
“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.”
“Brandi was absolutely amazing! She was able to accommodate our specific needs and was very communicative and sent lots of pictures during our trip. She has a really nice set up for the dogs and also printed off a big stack of pictures for us to take home. This has been the easiest and the best experience we have had with boarding and I will definitely be returning for future trips! We can’t thank Brandi enough! ❤️”
About: I have been a dog lover all of my life and possess a special way of relating to dogs. For the last decade, I have been the neighborhood go-to for dog sitting and boarding, while also taking care of my own three dogs. With the large back yard, sunning deck, and kiddie pool, I ensure a fun and relaxing experience for your pups stay. I am skilled in grooming (basic grooming), dog massage, feeding, medication administration, communication (basic-training, recall, etc.), walks, dog park outings, etc. and most importantly, lots of lovin'! I am a musician, property manager, (former massage therapist) who works from home and keeps a daily schedule of caring (feedings, exercise/play/socializing/outings, naps, etc.) for my own and my clients dogs, while keeping up with my creative practices and administrative duties. Dog care is well-integrated into my daily life. After morning feedings, we usually load up into the car and head to the dog park for 1-1.5 hours. Once we return home, the pups generally take a nap for at least 1.5-2.5 hours (allowing me to get some work done and/or to run errands). Once awake, we typically do some playing in the yard and/or training (sometimes involving Charlies Chips Treat - no/low calorie treats). After about an hour or so of play, I shift to preparing dinner for myself and also the dogs, if there are special wet food protocol requests from the owners. After feedings, we spend another hour or so outside before quieting down for the night. I usually play some soft music to settle my own energies down and the dogs seems to really appreciate that too as they tend to fall asleep to it and sleep comfortably throughout the night. I also do a late night potty break at around 10pm, just to avoid accidents throughout the night. Safety is priority to me. My home is set up specifically for their safety and my own. Cleanliness is also an important part of safety and I tend to do that throughout the day (sweep/vacuum, spot-mop, wash bedding, etc.). I have a large fenced in back yard, kiddie pool, lots of toys, and sunning deck for the dogs. The second bedroom has a day bed that the dogs sleep on, as well as multiple dog beds and the couch, if they prefer. I have water bowls in multiple locations throughout the house and backyard. I utilize room dividers at feedings, if necessary, or if I sense a dogs need for space away from the pack.
“Great sitter. We were a bit nervous at first cuz our dog has some bad tendencies but she was great at controlling his leash aggression and kept us updated the whole time. Really great experience overall!”
“Robin is an amazing doggy boarder! She communicates often with photos, actively takes care of her pets (walks/playtime), and clearly loves animals! I trust her care and know my sweet dog cares about her too.”
“Tammy is wonderful and I couldn’t have a found a better staycation for Gideon for the weekend. She was super responsive during the vetting process to ensure Gideon would be a good fit for her home. And during the stay she put my mind at ease and sent photos to show me how he was doing. Will absolutely use Tammy again the next time we go out of town!”

Cat caregivers near you - Glen Ellen
Prices are estimates per visit for 1 cat. Pricing may vary based on your search and includes a booking fee of 11%.
About: I really do love every kind of cat! I've had cat companions my entire life, and I feel like sometimes they are so soft and so squishy I just can't even stand it. I wouldn't say my cats are trained exactly, but they do let me give them a bath. And most of the time when I call them they do come so I'm calling that a win. I can give the pills and such when that's required, and I'm happy to work with all cats young and old.
“Katie is a wonderful find. She came to our home first to meet the guy, see the house, put up with my stories of his fabulousness. Then her evening and morning 1-hour visits were 1) absolutely on time as agreed, 2) featured many photos of his various activities, 3) the completed checklist of meals, litter box, etc. and 4) great info on his behavior, especially since this was the first time she cat-sat. That he hissed at her on first visit, was chill and lovey on his second (sounds like him). Katie has made it her business to know as much as she can about cat behavior (she is a cat owner), such as why female cats may like their rumps rubbed while my male cat might not. She is also just a lovely, attentive, curious person. So glad she's in the neighborhood.”
“Gabriel was wonderful with our 2 cats. Our cats opened up to him despite them not being big fans of strangers. He was on time for every visit and followed our instructions perfectly. Provided great daily updates. We would definitely reach out to him again the next time we need a sitter.”
“Karyna took great care of my cat Wilson. Last minute holiday plans came up and she went above and beyond to ensure Willie was comfortable. Thank you so much, I’m so appreciative.”
About: I am a full-time, professional pet sitter with extensive experience caring for both dogs and cats of all ages, temperaments, and needs. Because this is my dedicated career—not a side job—I’m able to provide attentive, reliable, and genuinely loving care tailored to each pet’s routine and personality. I understand that pets are family, and I prioritize their comfort, safety, and emotional well-being while you’re away. From energetic dogs who need structure and play to independent or shy cats who need patience and calm consistency, I bring experience, intuition, and heartfelt care to every visit, so you can travel with complete peace of mind. I have had many pets in the past but currently have a Chinese Crested dog (hairless) and a long hair chihuahua. Both are rescues. I am currently available full time to care for your pets in your home. I have done full time and part time pet sitting for several years. At this time, I only do pet care and house sitting in pet owner's home. I am not set up to do pet sitting at my home.
“Gina is such a reliable and responsible person who provides excellent care to my cats! She is very communicative and always helps me feel at ease when I travel. I definitely recommend booking with her!”
About: I've volunteered at the Sonoma County animal shelter for the past year walking, bathing and training dogs. I also have two dogs of my own, Dexter and Lulu, who I walk and feed everyday. I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life and I love it. I am a current student at Santa Rosa Junior College studying nursing and am looking forward to gaining more experience with pet care, as I have a passion for animals. Please contact me directly regarding availability, as it can differ with my school schedule. That said, I am extremely flexible, often able to take last-minute appointments, and always do my best to accommodate. I am available anytime on weekends, while weekdays vary but remain flexible around my classes. I can also do overnights if needed. I ensure pets receive attentive, personalized care in my clients' homes, including regular feeding, exercise, and companionship, while maintaining a safe and comfortable environment tailored to each pet's needs.
“Andrea has taken care of our cats for years, and is great. She takes the time to get to know their personalities, play with them, and give them snuggles. Our shy kitties love her, and so do we - she’s super reliable and communicative -and takes great pics for us during her visits.”
“Victoria was super attentive and a great communicator. We just needed a quick drop in for our cat this time, but we would definitely love to have Victoria take care of Johnny again!”
About: I have had dogs and cats and parakeets since before I could walk, and now that I am retired, I will care for your fur babies such that you are able to relax knowing they are in the best of care. I am retired from the court system and available most any time. I can work with your schedule intertwined with any commitments I might have. I can accommodate whatever needs you have, be it walking, pet sitting, dropping in in order to check on your babies and also staying the night.

About: I raised my last puppy into a loving, well-behaved dog. Volunteered at shelters in San Luis Obispo, CA when I lived there. I'm high energy, a morning person, and love to hike, run, beach, and move with a furry partner. Very cognizant of limitations on warm days. I also enjoy less active and senior dogs! I have a calm house, no children. One other dog, a one year old lab named Apollo. Your dog WILL enjoy their time with me, and I'll send you super cute pics to prove it! Currently, I'm working remotely while I help my dad with home improvement projects. I do not flake. If we make an agreement, rest assured I will be there. If you need a particular set of days further out, let me know and I can arrange that. We have a large yard and easy access to hikes and parks. I have hardwood floors, so no worries/carpet stains if there is an "accident." I prefer to spend most time outside the house, either getting exercise or at a coffeeshop in the shade. I work remotely, and help my dad with home improvement projects. The house backs up to a trail system, and I take our dog out every morning and afternoon for walks. There is a fenced, grassy space in the yard, as well as a dog park down the street that we frequent. We have a large grassy yard with long leashes if they're hanging outside th fenced area. Inside space is all dog friendly, and we allow ours on the couch. Just let me know if you have limits you'd like enforced for consistency.
About: I absolutely love animals! I have had dogs and cats since I was a kid, so I have experience working with multiple cats and dogs at a time. Additionally, I have experience volunteering in a shelter, providing puppy/kitten care and pet socialization. I work from home, so I am available most hours/days to pop in for a visit or to give a walk. I love keeping active and taking dogs on walks. I have a pup at home who enjoys going out a couple times a day and exploring the outdoors. I strive to keep my own pets safe and happy in a loving environment- I will do the same for yours! I have experience giving medication if necessary.
About: I have always cared for any animal. Dogs are my favorite and I have my own named sunny and poppy. I raised them all by myself whether that’s vet visits, walking, feeding, bathing, and loving of course! They are like my children! I am currently working as a babysitter and personal assistant, but I will be able to care for your dogs as well! Check my calendar on my availability and if you have any further questions let me know I have a fenced yard perfect for playtime and my doggies sunny and poppy are extremely friendly. They will be excited to meet any new furry friend that comes their way!
“Hillary came to my rescue after someone else cancelled the day before. Came over to meet Lola and go over her eating schedule. When she came over to feed Lola, I got a nice video of Lola greeting her. I would highly recommend Hillary for your pet sitting needs. Thank you Hillary!!”

“Robin was very nice, from start to end. Found her walking her dog as I was arriving to drop off our dog. She was very caring and sent a few updates and pictures throughout the day. I was very comfortable leaving our dog with Robin for the day, we recommend!”
“Heather and Calob are so awesome! I’m so glad to have found them to watch our two pups. They are so flexible, responsive and easy to coordinate with. They were great about sending photos too. And our pups sure loved them. Looking forward many more stays in the future!”
“Jeremy and Jordan have a great house to host dogs and an amazing yard. Their pets are happy characters and they have a great vibe going. We already booked our next stay. Thank you!”

About: With decades of experience in pet sitting, I’ve developed a deep passion for caring for dogs and cats. Whether it’s a playful pup in need of extra exercise or a shy cat who needs gentle attention, I approach each pet with patience and understanding, ensuring they feel comfortable and loved while you’re away; as their parent you can trust they’re in good hands. In addition to regular visits and overnight stays, I offer safe and entertaining playdates with my one-year-old mini Goldendoodle puppy. I have experience caring for post - surgical pets; and am well versed in giving medications if needed. Your pets will not only receive personalized care, but they’ll also have the chance to socialize and play during my visits; at your preference. My goal is to provide compassionate, reliable care that keeps them happy and healthy; entertained and comforted while their people are away. I HAVE LOTS OF HOLIDAY AVAILABILITY!!! I am working part time in my main career; but my passion is working and caring for animals and being a source of comfort for their owners knowing that their fur baby has companionship and supervision during needed times. I will not be traveling during the holidays this year, so I have lots of availability to help Pet parents take care of their animals this holiday season! At my home, we have 1.5 acres of property, with a fenced in front yard and separate fenced in side yard. I have a 1 year old mini golden doodle & a 3 year old Shit-Poo 😍. So, lots of socializing is available. I also have crates and different spaces available to give your furr baby rest and recharging time and separate eating spaces. When I am in my client’s home; I will do my very best to accommodate their needs, their normal routines etc. I offer multiple times/day visits, dog walking, pet socializing, and housesitting/overnight pet sitting. I’m very flexible and have great communication skills; I will always do my very best to make sure my Furr Clients and their parents are extremely satisfied and confident in me and my services.
“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: Every dog is different and that’s how I approach care. Whether working with a high energy puppy who needs structure and consistency or a senior dog who needs patience, gentle handling and extra attention, I tailor my approach to fit their personality and needs. I provide the highest level of attention and communication. I treat every dog like they’re my own by paying attention to their behavior and comfort, and keep you updated with regular messages and photos so you always know how they’re doing. My goal is to make your dog feel happy, safe and cared for while giving you complete peace of mind. I work fully remote at home with the flexibility to take breaks as needed, go for walks and attend to your dogs needs at any given time. I have a fenced yard for outside activity while my home provides a comfortable space for your dog. I live right next to a big park that’s ideal for dogs.
“Just visiting the area and super grateful to have found Jestina so I could attend an event. She loved my energetic boxer mix as if she were her own. I appreciated the updates, pix and video, and also the warm interest she took in my own life too! (Sometimes the dogs get all the attention!) Highly recommend and will use again when in town! Thank you, Jestina!”

“Allyse is incredible! She takes amazing care of our Frenchie, Franklin, and we couldn't be happier. Frenchies can have their quirks and specific needs, but Allyse handles Franklin with so much love, patience, and attention to detail. She sends great updates, pictures, is super reliable, and it's incredibly clear how much she truly cares about dogs. Franklin absolutely adores her. If you want peace of mind knowing your pup is in the best hands, hire Allyse! Highly recommend.”
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.
About: Spa Le Chien is specially tailored to your dog's needs while you are away from OR visiting California's Wine Country. I strive to make the experience unforgettable for your precious family member. I have been pampering pooches in my well-appointed modular house, located in a bucolic 55+ senior park in the charming village of Sonoma, for almost fifteen years. As a rule I only care for a single K9 at a time, so I can give it my full, undivided attention. There may occasionally be overlap between clients but rarely more than a single day or night. Safety is my first priority. Cleanliness, exercise, feeding and entertainment are our focus. I tend to work with small, older dogs and have helped elderly and infirm ones, too. But I am open to all types. I consult thoroughly with owners about their requirements before embarking on any regimen. I have never had a dissatisfied client...dogs love it here!
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.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a little kid. I really enjoy being around and caring for dogs. Most of my experience has been caring for small dogs and those in the later years of their life. My calm demeanor works well with dogs who may be nervous around new people. Until recently, I also volunteered at an adoption center where I helped to care for dogs looking for a new home. I currently don’t work a conventional job due to personal limitations so my schedule allows for lots of flexibility. Taking care of your pet would bring lots of joy to my day. I am an attentive and affectionate pet care taker. I will respect your space and any parameters set around taking care of your furry family.
“I can only say great things about Gabriel! On pretty short notice, Gabriel was able to walk my 2 small dogs for 10 days. He clearly loves dogs & they loved him. He is very reliable & attentive to the dogs needs. I won’t hesitate to hire him again.”
About: As a fur mom myself, I treat other pets as if they were my own. I have two dogs and a cat. Two of them are seniors and I've had them since they were young. I believe in training basic commands, positive enforcement, and lots of snuggles. When I'm not pet sitting, I'm hanging out with my pups outside while they get their zoomies out. I'm comfortable with excited pups, counter surfers, and shy pups. We all have our quirks! I take care of our 3 pets (2 dogs, 1 cats) and their care is my top priority on my day to day. Feeding, training, and getting the zoomies out. I like to keep the dogs routine as much as possible. Some dogs can get anxious when someone new is introduced and I find it's best to keep things as simple and normal as possible.
“Karyna was great!! Piper instantly fell in love with her. She was punctual, friendly and you could tell she loves animals. She sent photos and updated me throughout the day. I would definitely ask Karyna to walk Piper again. Thanks Karyna!!”
“We had a great experience with Asher. Kind, communicative, detail-oriented, professional, and really went above and beyond with our dogs. It was clear from our first meeting that Asher is just a pro at caring for pets. Highly recommend and would book again without hesitation! Thanks Asher!”
“I contacted Ronald last minute because I couldn't walk my dog, and even though we didn't have a chance to do a meet and greet, he was patient with my dog. We're excited about more walks with him in the future.”

“Caitlin was absolutely fantastic with my Basset hound. Her prior experience with hounds truly reassured me. It was a last minute request because another dog sitter fell through and she completely saved me and my dog Rupert. She is not only highly professional but also incredibly friendly. I will definitely be hiring her for dog walking again in the future.”

About: Hello! I’m Victoria, a reliable and experienced pet sitter who provides calm, attentive care so pets feel safe and comfortable in their home. Many animals seem to relax quickly around my steady, reassuring presence. With 10 years of experience, I’m comfortable adapting to each pet’s unique needs while keeping their routine consistent and low-stress. I focus on maintaining familiar schedules so pets feel secure while their family is away, and I truly enjoy spending time with animals and supporting their well-being. I’m especially good with pets who benefit from a calm, predictable environment. Clear communication and consistency are important to me so both pets and their owners feel comfortable and supported. My goal is always for you to return home to happy pets and a well-cared-for house. When house sitting, I spend a good portion of the day in your home so your pets receive companionship and stability throughout the day and evening. I specialize in steady, routine-based overnight care and do best with well-established household rhythms. For clients outside my immediate area, I begin with a video meet & greet so we can go over your pet’s routine and make sure it’s a great fit for everyone. I’m also happy to arrive a bit early on the first day to ensure a smooth, comfortable transition. If you’re looking for a reliable, thoughtful sitter who truly enjoys and understands animals, I would love to connect with you. I am currently working part time remotely and so I have plenty of time to play with your beloved pets. I'm around alot, especially for the first 3 days when they're usually missing their owners a great deal. It's helpful when the owner leaves instructions for what to do for the pets so that I am aware of their schedule because pets love to stick to routine.
About: I’ve taken care of every kind of pet you can think of. I started using Wag a few years ago and fell in love. Each has a specific personality and all are very loving. I have watched my dad’s boxer, my mom’s shitzu, wag customers’ dogs from lab to terrier, a few friends’ cats and most recently began caretaking my own kitten. I have worked with dogs and cats that need to take medication and crate training as well. I am excited to meet your furry friends! I make my own schedule and currently have Sunday, Monday and Tuesdays pretty open. I also can fit in a drop in or quick walk when I am not in meetings! I have experience caring for both dogs and cats while their owner was away. The most important thing to remember is a. Always refer to the owners manual they have given you! And b. Just give them love and keep their routine the same and you’re golden :)
“Amanda was great. I needed a last minute dog walker as I was leaving for a work trip and she was immediately responsive and was able to connect with my neighbor to make sure everything went smoothly. I will definitely be using her in the future, as needed, and would highly recommend.”
About: We have a friendly dog, Riggins, who loves to play outside in our large fenced in yard. When she gets tired we have a dog door into our living room with a bed and water and toys! Riggins loves having friends come over and play with her! We can also separate the dogs if they need their alone time. Our yard has shade and sunny areas and has a very large area to run around! The fence is around 6'-0" high. So much room for fun! I work from home so I watch after them all day! Our dog Riggins likes to listen to music and is very social able once she says hello! Would love to meet you and your dog to see if they get along with Riggins our dog! I work from home so I am always around for the dogs. They have free range of the yard and a dog door if they need to come inside. We have gates if they need some alone time as well. We have a fenced in yard with a four year old dog and we have a son who is just about 3 years old and we love having friends over! We have numerous beds and water bowls for everyone to use
About: I am a positive, flexible, and empathetic person. I love working with animals and over the years have taken care of all types of dogs, cats and even chickens. Since I was 10, I house sat in my home neighborhood with friends and family relying on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets. When I was attending university I house sat as a part time job. I made connections via word of mouth with multiple families in my community who trusted me to care for their pets throughout the 4 years I was in school. Most recently I house sat full-time through Rover as I studied for my certification exams. I absolutely love getting to know peoples pets and have a lot of experience doing so. I am confident when it comes to handling strong, energetic and finicky doggo's and I am always up to the challenge of gaining a cats trust. I am currently working as a travel occupational therapist so my schedule is pretty flexible. I can be with the pets more often then not during the week and on weekdays! I love being out in nature and am very comfortable adopting a new home to provide the needed exercise and company for your amazing pets.
About: I have decades of experience providing care for my own dogs (my wife and I have three sighthounds currently), and their health and happiness are always my top priority. I am available most days of the week at this time, including weekends. Currently, dog walking is my only gig, so I'm here to help as best I can! I'll provide your pet with exercise appropriate for their age and physical condition. We have a fully fenced yard and plenty of dog beds inside the house. Everyone is supervised and chaperoned when they are in our yard.
About: I absolutely love animals! I have had dogs and cats since I was a kid, so I have experience working with multiple cats and dogs at a time. Additionally, I have experience volunteering in a shelter, providing puppy/kitten care and pet socialization. I work from home, so I am available most hours/days to pop in for a visit or to give a walk. I love keeping active and taking dogs on walks. I have a pup at home who enjoys going out a couple times a day and exploring the outdoors. I strive to keep my own pets safe and happy in a loving environment- I will do the same for yours! I have experience giving medication if necessary.
About: With decades of experience in pet sitting, I’ve developed a deep passion for caring for dogs and cats. Whether it’s a playful pup in need of extra exercise or a shy cat who needs gentle attention, I approach each pet with patience and understanding, ensuring they feel comfortable and loved while you’re away; as their parent you can trust they’re in good hands. In addition to regular visits and overnight stays, I offer safe and entertaining playdates with my one-year-old mini Goldendoodle puppy. I have experience caring for post - surgical pets; and am well versed in giving medications if needed. Your pets will not only receive personalized care, but they’ll also have the chance to socialize and play during my visits; at your preference. My goal is to provide compassionate, reliable care that keeps them happy and healthy; entertained and comforted while their people are away. I HAVE LOTS OF HOLIDAY AVAILABILITY!!! I am working part time in my main career; but my passion is working and caring for animals and being a source of comfort for their owners knowing that their fur baby has companionship and supervision during needed times. I will not be traveling during the holidays this year, so I have lots of availability to help Pet parents take care of their animals this holiday season! At my home, we have 1.5 acres of property, with a fenced in front yard and separate fenced in side yard. I have a 1 year old mini golden doodle & a 3 year old Shit-Poo 😍. So, lots of socializing is available. I also have crates and different spaces available to give your furr baby rest and recharging time and separate eating spaces. When I am in my client’s home; I will do my very best to accommodate their needs, their normal routines etc. I offer multiple times/day visits, dog walking, pet socializing, and housesitting/overnight pet sitting.
