About: I have taken care of dogs most of my life, whether it's my own pet or pet sitting for neighbors. I have two dogs myself. Bosa who is a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel and our big little rescue Kittle who is a Great Pyrenees. I have been blessed to have so many amazing people, and of course dogs, that I can now make dog walking/sitting my full time job. I am a trustworthy hard worker who follows instructions to the letter. I am physically active and can keep up with the most excitable of dogs.
“Sheila was incredibly kind and flexible. Her home was a place filled with a lot of warmth and love! She was always super prompt when replying to me and sent me many photos of my dog while she was staying there. I will 100% book with Sheila again. Thank you!!!”
“Alexis was fantastic. She booked us as a last minute request and made sure our Klaus was in good hands. She was great at communication and sent pictures and videos of our dog having a blast on her property. I would book again and recommend her services.”
“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.”
“Hannah was an amazing sitter! I would recommend her a million times. We were traveling and had a kennel back out on us last minute, which left us in a rough spot, and Hannah was able to help us last minute and was so flexible and understanding. She was so sweet and patient with Mark, spent lots of time with him, and gave us plenty of pictures, videos, and updates. He had the best time. When we picked him up he was happy, healthy, and exhausted from all the playing and fun! She also fed him extra food when his ran out and kept track of and returned all the toys we sent with him. She has a beautiful and safe property that he loved playing on. I would absolutely book with her again in the future!”
About: I’ve been taking care of my families puppy and my own kitten for about 2 years now ! Ive taken care of other peoples dogs in the past as well! I’m efficient and competent. Im currently a college student, so I spend most of my time at home and just in general I’m a home body. So, I have enough time to care and tend to pets and their needs. I’m very attentive to my own cat and families dog. They both have feeding schedules and are potty trained. I’ve taken my time to make them good pets. I’ve showed the same amount of attention and affection to other peoples pets as well.
“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!”
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.
“Ana and her husband work from home, so they are able to be with your pet 24/7. My 12 year old cockapoo, Mazie, had never stayed overnight anywhere. We were gone for 5 nights! Ana made me feel at peace leaving my pet with her and I never felt worried. She sent photos so I could see that all was well. I don’t think Mazie ever missed me. I highly recommend Ana!!”
“We can’t recommend Allyse and Justin enough for dog sitting. From the moment we met them, it was very easy to tell that Allyse and Justin were calm, caring, and attentive to our dogs needs. Allyse provided excellent communication throughout the entire experience. We received daily updates, helping us feel calm and at ease being away from our dogs. We were very comfortable knowing Allyse and Justin were giving our dogs attention and caring for them in our absence. We can’t recommend or thank them enough. We would absolutely book with Allyse again!”
“We are so grateful that Bernadette takes such good care of our little Skippy. Gives us such piece of mind to be gone, knowing that he has a friendly and caring place to stay.”

“Laura was fantastic. She spent time getting Tigerlilly, who isn't used to strangers, comfortable. It was our first time leaving the cats for more than 12 hours so we really enjoyed seeing photos of the cats. Laura also noticed that the litter needed to be totally changed and undertook doing that, which we really appreciate. We highly recommend Laura as a pet sitter, she is a lovely person!”
“Blake was absolutely lovely while she dropped in to take care of my cat while I was away for a few days. She was super responsive, kind, considerate, sent lots of pictures and I enjoyed her daily write ups. Definitely will book again, thank you for taking such good care of my cat!”
“Hannah was so great with our cats for the weekend! Our cat got surgery two weeks previous and needed eye drops multiple times a day. We were able to book Hannah on a very short notice and she made time to come to our house and meet the cats. She did a wonderful job watching our cats and administering the eyedrops. We will definitely be using her more in the future!”
“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!”
About: My experience ranges from daily care routines to addressing specific health and behavioral issues. I've always had pets of my own, which has further enriched my knowledge and passion for animal care. I am currently working part-time from home. I am available weekdays weekends, and I have the availability for playtime and walks for your pet's , I wanted to share that I have a fenced yard on half an acre, providing plenty of space for pets to play. Additionally, my friendly dog will be there for your fur babies to enjoy some playtime
“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!”
“Amanda was outstanding as usual. Our shy cat is starting to get used to her:) Amanda’s responsiveness and communication are excellent. We look forward to booking Amanda again.”
About: Hi! I’ve cared for cats for many years through friends, family, and personal experience. I understand that every cat has a different personality and comfort level, and I’m patient, attentive, and respectful of their routines and boundaries. I’m very detail oriented and reliable in my day to day life, and I bring that same level of care into pet sitting. Whether your cat is playful, shy, affectionate, or independent, my goal is to help them feel safe, relaxed, and cared for while you’re away. I’m also happy to provide regular updates, photos, feeding schedule consistency, litter box maintenance, playtime, and lots of calm companionship. I understand that trusting someone with your pet and home is a big deal, and I take that responsibility seriously.
“Marie did an awesome job of caring for our elderly cat full time in our home while we were away during a one-month trip. The cat needs medication twice daily: 4 different meds (3 in pill form and one transdermal). She monitored his food intake and elimination, as he has slowly been losing weight and then just before we left, he had a case of diarrhea. She also took him for a follow-up appointment with the veterinarian. The cat really warmed up to her. She kept us informed every few days. (We have a camera on the cat's feeding area, so daily reports weren't needed.) The house was in perfect order when we returned.”
“Emma is very kind and was so great with my pets. She sent me great photos of them showing me that they’re in great care and are happy which brought me a lot of ease on my trip. I highly recommend her!”
“Highly recommend Mackenzie! My precious kitty loves her. Easy going and extremely conscientious. Two important qualities that don’t always coexist. Will definitely book future cat sits knowing we can count on the highest quality of care for our fur baby.”
“Casey took excellent care of our cat while we were out of town. She was very responsive and left detailed status updates. I would highly recommend Casey to anyone looking for a responsible and reliable caretaker.”
“Michelle was amazing. I was very worried about leaving my kitty that I only had for a short while. I connected with her and was 100% confident that everything would be great and it was. I will absolutely use her again!!!”
“Torrie is an incredible pet sitter. We’ve used her many times to drop in to take care of our two cats. She’s communicative, detail oriented and dependable. We know our boys are so well taken care of while we are away! Thank you Torrie!!”
“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.”

“Heather & Calob are caring dog owners and obviously take this role seriously. My service dog needed a little respite from me on a Sunday afternoon. They are a terrific choice. Thanks guys! We’ll see you again!”
“Holly was amazing! Very communicative. Asked all the questions someone who genuinely cares about your pets comfort and well being. Our little guy struggles with being left and she handled it like an absolute pro. 10/10!!!”

About: I've always had a dog. I had dogs growing up, I adopted a dog when I moved out on my own, and I adopted another dog when my children were old enough. Dogs are an important and special part of the family. I enjoy giving them attention, taking them for walks, brushing them, and of course, cuddling with them. I am observant of their communication styles, and use my observation skills to make sure I attend to their needs and keep them happy. I lost my special girl recently, and this is the first time in a while I am without my own dog. I would love to help you care for your dog while I decide whether to adopt again. I currently work from home and have a very flexible schedule. I am available to go for walks and give potty breaks almost anytime day and evening. I live in a townhouse that does not have a fenced yard. However, I used to take my dog for several walks per day for both exercise and potty breaks. Dogs are welcome in any part of the house, or can be restricted to downstairs, depending on their needs. I am happy to visit your pet in your home to offer a potty break, take for a walk, or just give some attention.
“Jo had a great time with Alexis! She came out from her day visit with a huge smile and lots of adventures! Loved getting updates and pictures through the day as well. Great fit for my sweet, but Velcro dog.”

“Taylor did an amazing job watching my nervous dog for daycare. She did everything she could to make him comfortable and it was nice getting video updates where I could see my dog was starting to warm up. I can tell Taylor is very knowledgeable about dogs and dog training.”
“Sheila accepted a last minute request for doggy day care and hosted my dog over. She is understanding of dogs behavior and needs. I knew my dog was in good hands and will return.”
“Christina was great! She was very communicative throughout Gibson’s stay, ensuring his safety and keeping to his routine. He was a happy tired pup when we picked him up. Would definitely recommend Christina, and would be happy to rebook her of/when there’s a need!”
“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!)”
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.

“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!!”
About: 🐾 Your Fur Baby's Best Buddy! 🐾 Hey there! As a passionate dog owner myself for the past 3 years, I truly understand the love and care our furry family members deserve. Having experienced using Rover for my own pup, I know exactly what you, as a dog owner, are looking for in a reliable and trustworthy dog sitter. My top priority is to provide your furry friend with all the kindness, care, and attention they need, just like they were my very own! I work part time as a personal trainer in the day and dance teacher at night so I create my own schedule! I always keep my mornings free for walks, playtime, and any special needs for the dogs! Afternoon walks are also something I prioritize, it’s not only important for your pup to get that exercise but I like to decompress and enjoy nature as much as I can during the day. One of my favorite things to do is to go on refreshing walks and spend quality time at the park with my dog Jinx, and I'm sure your pup loves that too! If they are on the more relaxed side, I'm happy to spend indoors play time and/or simply cuddle. I have a 7 year old pup named Jinx who is friendly and loves a walk but if we go to the dog park he ideally loves just doing his own thing, he's more of an introvert 😂 Rest assured, your dog's safety is paramount to me. I have a spacious yard, which provides the perfect play area, it is not fenced so I use a secure 30ft leash when any dogs play outside, so your pup can enjoy freedom while being safely supervised. I also have a partner who lives with me and he has a heart that melts for dogs, so your fur baby is in safe hands. So, if you need a responsible and loving dog sitter, I'm here for you! Let's make sure your beloved companion has a fantastic time while you're away or at work, and they get the love and care they deserve with a sitter... plus I'll send lots of photos! 🐕 Looking forward to meeting you and your doggo soon! 🐶 Kindly, Katee 🐶
“Ellen was great. She took great care of our pup and was very easy going. She even had some advice for activities in town that were really great. We will definitely see her again next time we are in town.”
About: I have been taking care of cats and dogs on and off since I was a teenager. In the last 9 or so years my love for being the “dog aunty” of my social circle has grown into a career and I have professionally cared for pets of all shapes and sizes, and with a wide range of needs and personalities. This includes caring for pets at my home and at the fur babies’ homes, day visits, grooming visits, training visits, and even overnight 24 hour sitting for up to a month at a time, with specific pets. I have also worked with several puppies and senior dogs and have had success in both introducing and reinforcing obedience training. I also have experience working with a range of pack sizes, caring for groups of 1-8 pets at a time, both large and small. In addition, I have experience caring for senior pets with special medical needs, and the necessary attention and clean up required for those pets. I love animals and I am always looking forward to meeting new animal friends. I am currently also working as a pet portraiture artist, so my schedule is up to me and I am very flexible and open to working around your schedule and your pets needs. Safety and stress free environment is number 1. I like to get to know the pets I cared for and what their specific needs are. I have experience and am comfortable with all common leash and harness types, and confident and excited to take your pet on a walk. I have worked with and helped a handful of reactive dogs improve on their stranger danger responses when out on walks. I don’t shy away from a challenge and would love to help if I can while letting your baby get some fresh air. I am confident and comfortable using a crate, both indoors and if needed for transport in case of an emergency. In the case of an emergency medical issue, I am quick to respond and have a good relationship with several local vet hospitals. I will keep your baby safe and happy and I am always ready to accommodate their parents wishes.
“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!!”
“Steven hosted my dog over for doggy day care when I received a last minute cancellation from another sitter. All worked out great. Steven had prompt communication, understood dog behavior and needs, followed through on my requests on how to care for my dog. Perfect experience, highly recommend! My dog will be back!”

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.
“Julie was very quick to respond to our request on short notice and went out of her way to make us feel comfortable leaving our dog in her care. She is kind, experienced and knowledgeable with larger dogs!”
About: I currently have 5 of my own dogs, my oldest we have had for 8 years. I used to work at a dog rescue and I currently work at a kennel, so I have experience with all kinds of dogs. I work full time at a dog kennel in Petaluma and days that are grayed out I am available after 5:30 pm for visits or walks. I have experience fitting collars and harnesses to all sized dogs for their safety. I also know how to safely and properly use e-collars, prong collars, muzzles, martingales, and gentle leaders. I have a reactive dog myself, so I know how to keep dogs safe in environments that may make them uncomfortable.
“We’re so sad to see Ashley go—she’s been an incredible dog walker and a big part of Mila’s life in just a short time. Our German Shepherd absolutely adored her, and it’s easy to see why. Ashley was attentive, dependable, and completely drama-free. She always showed up, took such great care of Mila, and made everything feel effortless. We’re going to miss her so much, and we wish her nothing but the best in her next chapter!”
“Kyle really helped us out this week! He was always on time and our dog really liked going on walks with him. When our dog got home he was just as happy as can be. Thank you Kyle”
About: Hi, I’m Josephia, and I would absolutely love to meet your pets! I hold a bachelor’s degree in Environmental Studies from the University of California, Santa Barbara. I’ve also been pet sitting for dogs and cats in my neighborhood since high school, giving me over 10 years of experience caring for animals in both casual and structured settings. Most recently, I spent the past year doing a work-stay on a farm, where I was responsible for the vegetable garden, 12 fruit trees, and the daily care of a variety of animals, including two sheep, nine chickens, three cats, and a dog. This experience taught me how to be highly attentive, consistent, and adaptable to different animal needs and personalities. My responsibilities included feeding, cleaning, monitoring health and behavior, and maintaining safe, comfortable environments for all animals. I’m very familiar with sticking to routines, which I know is especially important for pets while their owners are away. I live an active lifestyle and love being outdoors, so I’m great with pets that need long walks, runs, or playtime. I truly treat every pet like my own and prioritize clear communication with owners through updates, messages, and photos so you can feel confident and at ease while you're away. Pet care fits well into my daily and weekly routine. I am currently doing a farm stay in Sebastopol, where I follow a consistent schedule of daily animal care. While these responsibilities do not take up my entire day, they do require me to stay in the area, so I am only able to take on pet care within Sebastopol. I have a flexible schedule and am available any day of the week in the Sebastopol area. I’m able to accommodate morning, midday, and evening visits, as long as it is within the area. I follow your instructions closely and stick to your pet’s normal routine so they feel comfortable and secure. I make sure doors, gates, and leashes are always safe, and I pay attention to each pet’s behavior so I can respond to what they need, whether that’s space, attention, or exercise. I keep your home tidy and respect your space, and I’m happy to send updates and photos so you know how everything is going.
About: I have lots of practical experience with dogs. I have owned dogs my whole life and have dog sat for family and friends.

I do work a full time job but I do have some flexibility on the weekdays/weekends. Wednesday: anytime after 1pm Friday: 11:30-12:39, and after 4:30pm Saturday: anytime after 12pm Sunday: available all day I am not able to offer my home for pet care as I rent the home I live in and my landlord does not allow any pets. I am able to come to your home, so long as detailed instructions on how to care for your pet are provided.
About: Hello! My name is Lance and i’m 20. I’ve had a dog in my household about young as I can remember. I currently live with 3 little furballs named Seiya, Sol, and Bambi. I’ve always had a love for dogs. I’ve volunteered occasionally at dog shelters and love to involve myself when it comes to caring for these beautiful animals. I walk my dogs everyday and have been doing so for friends and family throughout the years. I’ve worked with all types of dogs of any size! I’m currently working a part time job so i’ll have plenty of days throughout the week where i’ll be able to provide your dogs with the walks they desire! I give my dogs a brush as soon as I take them home from their walk and wipe their paws with dog wipes, if interested I may also provide your dogs with some light brushing to prevent nappy hair and clean up their paws to prevent possible bacteria and keep them clean! These tools would be coming along with me if a client would like me to bring them.
About: I worked the wag app in Chicago for a 2 years, and loved it! Excited to be in an area where i can start dog walking again.

About: I love animals so much I got a degree in Animal Science and I'm pursuing a Vet Tech certification! I have personal experience caring for a variety of dogs in my life: A HIGH energy pitty puppy, a senior and disabled corgy-shepard, and my very own dog, Sheldon, the rainbow terrier rescue ❤️. I absolutely love hanging out with dogs, going on walks, giving pets, winning over shy hearts, and even helping guide rambunctious puppies in the right direction with patience. I just graduated college and have a very open schedule right now, I can do early or late, any day of the week or weekend.

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.

I’ve showed the same amount of attention and affection to other peoples pets as well.
“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!”
“We can’t recommend Allyse and Justin enough for dog sitting. From the moment we met them, it was very easy to tell that Allyse and Justin were calm, caring, and attentive to our dogs needs. Allyse provided excellent communication throughout the entire experience. We received daily updates, helping us feel calm and at ease being away from our dogs. We were very comfortable knowing Allyse and Justin were giving our dogs attention and caring for them in our absence. We can’t recommend or thank them enough. We would absolutely book with Allyse again!”
“I had a fantastic experience with Sandy! From the moment she picked Lucy up, I felt completely confident that she was in great hands. Her communication was prompt and friendly, and the regular updates and photos really put my mind at ease. Lucy came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. It's such a relief to find someone as trustworthy and attentive as Sandy. I’ll definitely be booking with her again in the future—thank you so much for taking such great care of Lucy!”
“Marina hosted Kora for one day and Kora fell in love with her. She is a very friendly and nice person . Kora enjoyed her stay at Marina’s house playing with other dogs. Thank you, Marina.”
“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 .”
“Katy is a fabulous sitter! Even though she had a busy weekend, she bent over backwards to make sure Pippin was a good fit with her sweet dog, Vision, and would be comfortable in her home. She was friendly and hospitable to us, and loving and attentive to Pippin. She will be our go-to sitter from now on!”
