“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 love having our pup stay with Heather! He’s an elderly pup so seeing him get excited on the ride to her place is wonderful because he knows he's going to have a great time. He loves being there so much and we always know our quirky old dog is absolutely in excellent hands. As always, Heather provided an exceptional level of care and compassion throughout the entire duration of my pup's stay. My dog's physical and emotional well-being were clearly prioritized as he was taken for lots of leisurely walks and spent so much time being pet and cuddled. I know he thoroughly enjoyed his stay, as he returned home visibly content, relaxed and generally very happy.”

“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 .”
“We had a great experience with Angela and her kind son! They took wonderful care of Bo for two days and kept us updated with photos and messages, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. Bo came home happy, healthy, and well cared for. We've already booked for them to watch Bo again and I recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and kind pet sitters.”
“I would absolutely recommend Liz to take care of your pup. Hugo had a great time and it’s a great space. The pictures she sent were all of our doggie smiling and sleeping and totally comfortable. We will be using Liz for daycare as well as future pet sitting.”
“Our dog had a wonderful stay! Alexis took great care of him in her home, sent updates and photos, and it was clear he was comfortable and happy the whole time.

“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.”
“Sheila took amazing care of our dog, Gus. She provided daily updates and pictures/videos. We took comfort in knowing our large Cane Corso was in reliable hands. She gave us useful feedback when we returned and made sure we knew how our dog did while we were gone. She has a lot of good canine knowledge and she doesn’t just “watch” your pup, she provides them with a place that has structure, toys and enrichment available.”

“Ashleigh from the first walk-through visit left me with confidence that my cat would be well taken care of but also gave me a peace of mind that he would be loved! Ashleigh is professional & thorough while also relaxed, respectful, kind and efficient. She is a person who goes above and beyond while taking care of your pet. While I was away there was an ant infestation where I place the food & water fountain and without a thought she took care of the situation immediately then communicated to me so I was aware. When I got home days later I could not tell it had ever happened. Kuddos to Ashleigh and much appreciation. I highly recommend Ashleigh and cannot praise her enough! My cat also let me know that he now has a BFF! 💕First time using Rover and know I will use them again.”
About: I’ve never lived in a home without a cat! Cats have been in my life since I can remember, and I love them so much. I’ve taken care of them since I was a child, including all of my own cats, past and present, as well as the strays outdoors & my neighbors’ & friends’ cats!
“Excellent! I really appreciated Holly's concern for Gray and extra search efforts in getting my wayward cat back into the house, after I foolishly let her out before my trip. Holly became good friends with Gray, gave her lots of affection and noticed issues with Gray's cat food which I had not. Holly also offered to evacuate Gray if needed during the recent Sonoma County fires. I recommend Holly to anyone who wants a caring and conscientious pet sitter. She did a wonderful job :-)”
“Kyle was fantastic! From the moment we met him, he was professional, friendly, and put us at ease. He took wonderful care of our kitten while house sitting and sent regular photos and updates, which made it so easy to relax and enjoy our vacation.Knowing our kitten and home were in such good hands made our trip completely stress-free. Kyle was attentive, communicative, and clearly cared about making sure everything was going well while we were away.We couldn't have asked for a better experience and would absolutely book Kyle again. We highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional pet sitter!”
“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.”
“Micki instantly won my cats' trust and affection when they first met and I knew they would be in good hands. She provided notes and photos with each visit which I looked forward to every day. Micki was on time for her visits and responded promptly to messages. She handled everything beautifully and I think my cats would love to see her again! This was my first time hiring a sitter and I was very pleased with the service.”
“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!”
“Melissa is the best! She has watched my cats twice now and takes such great care of them. My cats are high energy and she spends lots of time playing with them and making sure they never get bored.

“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: I’m the lady who crosses the street to ask if I can pet your dog. I love all dogs, but big dogs have my heart. I confess, I’m also the lady that will remember your dog’s name, age and origins, but perhaps not always your name. Although I have the confidence and experience to befriend your big dogs, that shouldn’t suggest that I don’t love our smaller friends, as well. Big and small, I love them all❣️ I’ve been responsible for animals most of my life. Chiefly, I’ve had the privilege to care and own big dogs. Growing up, we had a Sheppard-Mastiff mix, and that’s when my love for big dogs began. In our house, we had a macaw, cockatoo, kākāriki, ring-necked parakeet, and a cockatiel, tropical/ saltwater fish, dogs, and cats. I continue to be a proud breed ambassador and have owned 4 Rottweilers over the years. I’ve been gainfully employed as a civil servant for 25 years. After my last Rottweiler passed away, I wanted to care for a dog again, but haven’t adopted quite yet. I enjoy hiking, outdoor activities, walking and traveling, and of course dogs! I’ve had the privilege to care for our misunderstood and sometimes reactive dog friends, as well. All dogs deserve love. I helped welp Belgian Malinois puppies and ensure they found loving, deserving homes. I joke that, “If the choice was between world peace or puppies, I would choose puppies.” I can’t wait to meet your doggie! Since I’m a civil servant, my schedule is consistent. I have free nights and 3-day weekends. I enjoy a lot of free time that I would like to fulfill with dogs. I have a secured, fenced yard. I can also kennel your pets as well. My responsibility to you is ensuring your family member is secure in my charge.
About: I have extensive experience caring for cats and have become the go-to cat sitter for an entire family of cat owners. I’ve cared for their cats numerous times over the years, and I love getting to know each cat’s unique personality, routine, and preferences. Whether your cat wants playtime and attention or prefers a little space, I’m happy to follow their lead. I’ve even won over cats who now make a beeline for my lap—or decide my face is the perfect place to sleep! I provide dependable, loving care and want your cat to feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away. I was also a proud cat mom to three wonderful cats of my own, who have sadly since crossed the Rainbow Bridge. They gave me years of experience with all the quirks, personalities, cuddles, and care that come with loving cats—and I have plenty of that love left to share with yours. ❤️
About: I'm a lifelong animal lover with a flexible schedule and a deep love for exploring the outdoors. I raised my dog from a puppy and it was one of the most rewarding experiences of my life! I specialize in active walks and hikes for dogs who love to get out and explore- I like to work with a single dog at a time so I can really get to know them and develop strong communication with them. I know all the best dog-friendly spots in the area: Laguna de Santa Rosa, Riverfront Regional Park, Taylor Mountain, and the local bike trails. For older dogs, I'm happy to take it easy with gentle neighborhood strolls. I've also managed complicated medication routines for dogs in treatment, so I'm comfortable with pets who need extra care, need drop in visits, and I love cats too! I use positive reinforcement techniques and am comfortable with pets of most energy levels and temperaments. Whether your pup needs a trail adventure, your senior dog needs patient care, your cat needs some company, or you just need a reliable check-in, I'd love to help. My schedule is flexible, so I can accommodate last-minute requests, early mornings, or evenings—whatever works best for you and your pet. I know how important it is to find someone you can trust, my doggo was my world. I would love to be there for your pet! I work from home as a freelancer and can accommodate most requests on weekdays, sometimes I can also pick up work on weekends. I walk everyday, rain or shine and love to bring happy dogs on the trail! In My Home: I treat every pet in my care as if they were my own. I maintain a calm, safe environment and follow your established routines as closely as possible—from feeding schedules to playtime preferences. For dogs, I provide plenty of exercise through walks or hikes suited to their energy level, and I'm always attentive to their comfort and body language. I keep pets secure with leashed walks, and I'm vigilant about potential hazards both indoors and on trails. For pets on medication or special diets, I follow instructions carefully and keep detailed notes. I also provide regular updates with photos so you can enjoy peace of mind while you're away. Since I work from home, the pet is with me 24/7, with only short breaks if I need to go do an errand - in which case we use a crate. In Your Home: I respect your home as I would my own. I follow all your instructions for feeding, medication, routines, and house rules. I keep things tidy, secure doors and windows, and ensure your pet stays safe and comfortable in their familiar environment. I'm happy to bring in mail, water plants, or adjust lighting to give your home a lived-in feel while you're away. Communication is key, so I provide regular updates and am always available if questions come up. My goal is to make the transition seamless for both you and your pet.
“Bella took great care of my shy cats, and was even able to bring them out of their shells. She always showed up on time and sent pictures. I will try to book her for next time!”
About: I love animals of all kinds but I am a true cat person at heart! Dogs tend to love everyone, but cats are all such individuals with their own personalities and I absolutely love getting to know them and helping them feel comfortable and safe with me!
About: Your cat's tail says it all:). When it's twitching.. I'm exploring what's happening, in the moment and what comes next for your kitty's peace, joy and play:).Hi, I'm Ariel, born and raised locally:)..I've always had and loved cats:). I connect with care and awareness. Silly, savory, sweet, calm, clever, intuitive, grumpy, scared or friendly.. I appreciate your cat(s) as they are.. I know your cat(s) has unique needs and temperament:). As a voice and transitions wellness guide for both people and animals, I take special care as to what is present in the moment for both you and your pet. . Cuddler to growler, nervous or playful, I'm there with care (didn't mean to rhyme:). Occasionally (when OK with you all) I may work together with my careful, mature, daughter/cat whisperer, who is magical with all animals and even senior cats. **I am always 100% responsible, attentive and present during all work. My daughter and I are deep lovers of animals and have a sweet intuitive, loving relationship with even the grumpiest of cats:)). Here, and around the world.. cats have always been a part of my life.. My kitty Serenka (short for Serendipity because of the amazing way she showed up in my life, in Prague.) even got her own passport;)) so she could come home to California with us:). She is an elder now, is more of a morning cat and by afternoons prefers more peace and nap time:). Evenings, she waits until the house is still, then guards the corner edge of bed near my daughter.... We cats.. yep, I feel like a cat, sometimes:)).. need both love, space, peace and play, in the "right moments":)). I have a deep understanding of that balance between play, rest and being in the same space together, quietly. I love that each cat, is so beautifully different and unique. Getting to know them is a joy. In our family.. we even had a cat live to 21!:). That was really something by the end!
About: I love being outdoors and experiencing new neighborhoods. My experience ranges from watching over a breeder’s pack to petsitting for individual dogs. I’ve also looked after guinea pigs, ducks, rabbits, cats etc. I am available during the morning, day and evenings. I am a quiet, gentle person and animals seem to respond well to that. I’d like to walk dogs that are under 50 lbs, preferably. I can also house sit, take in the mail, water plants as needed. I can clean kennels, wash dishes and bowls and keep things generally tidy in your home. I have experience with giving medication if that is required of your pet. I am reliable and always available if you have any concerns, so please don’t hesitate to ask. I'm currently working part time and looking to find clients that I can serve on a weekly basis. Depending on the circumstances, I may bring my 4 year old female goldendoodle with me for walks as long as it is agreed upon beforehand. As a dog owner myself, I am constantly paying attention to the needs and triggers of my dog in an uncontrolled environment, especially during walks in the neighborhood. The same attentiveness would be given to your dog!
About: I am an animal lover and treat my own pets like part of the family. I am very active and love to take dogs on walks and I will love taking yours! I know they live for their walks! I will throw balls for your dog and take them to the park if wanted. I treat every dog the same and love them all...BIG or small. I am open to cats as well! My house is calm and tranquil. There are no kids in my house. My husky mix recently passed away suddenly in October and I miss her so much... Her name was Lily and she lived for her 2x/day walks. That is part of why I am doing this as a part time job because I miss my dog and would love to be around animals more. Pick me to take care of your loved one! I do work full time and I am gone 8-5 unfortunately. So weekends would be best for me. I’d be willing to do weekdays but you would have to be comfortable with me being gone during the day. I would take them on 2-3 walks per day.. 1 in the morning before work and 1 as soon as I get home from work. Unfortunately I don’t have a yard, just a small deck. If it’s a cat, I would make sure they had care and attention when I am home.

“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!!”
“I didn’t expect to need someone to watch our dogs for the day but they ended up having a little vacation of their own! Thank you sooo much! They were both happy when we picked up and we would plan a trip this way just so they could have a fun day with David again. While we had our own little vacation both our dogs did as well.”
“Jen was great! We dropped Cooper off for the day and felt very comfortable leaving, knowing he was in great hands! Her two dogs were very sweet and were great companions for Cooper during his day there. When we picked Cooper up it was obvious he had a great day and was well taken care of. We would definitely bring Cooper back again when we are in the area.”
“My pug LOVES spending time at Lauren and Ben’s house playing with all the dogs or just lounging on the floor. When we arrive, he tugs hard on his leash to get inside. It’s wonderful to know that when he’s away from home, he’s safe and happy in their care.”
“Melissa was incredible with our 5 month old puppy, Rocky! It was our first time leaving Rocky and I couldn’t have felt more comfortable with Melissa. She is very communicative, understands dogs very well, and helped train our pup. I look forward to booking again with Melissa in the future!”
About: I’ve always had dogs and I have yet to met me a dog that didn’t like me. My friends started to notice when I’d come over to their houses, that I’d pay more attention to their dogs, than I would to my friends. If their dog didn’t get a walk that day, I’d offered to take them by myself. I’d always give them extra affection. I would even teach them new tricks. Recently, I’ve had to put my two old dogs down. So I’m now available to spend night away from home. Knowing how much I missed having a dog to love and care for, my friends started asking me to watch their dogs. They trusted wouldn’t just take him out to go to the bathroom, but I would actually care for them and give their dogs the same affection I’d give my own. I work Friday and Saturday 9am-4pm other than that my schedule is wide open. Days I work I let dogs out before and come straight home after work to relieve and take for a walk. I’m available for sleep over or just to get your dog out of the house for a nice long walk. Dogs are just like having kids. They need just as much care and attention. Your home is your comfort zone. I respect people property and when you return home, it will be as if you never left.
“Saved my butt when traveling through the region and needed a dog sitter for the day. My Jef was happy and comfortable, and I could tell he had affection for Heather when we left.”
“We booked Sheila last minute and she was able to accommodate care for Gabby. We booked a tour with Safari West which was less than 20 minutes from her house. When we got to her home, she greeted us and Gabby appeared to like Sheila right away, so much so that we called her “Aunty Sheila”. It made me feel at ease knowing that Gabby would be cared for by a stranger who felt like family. While we were away, Sheila sent us a photo of Gabby playing with a chew toy. Sheila’s home had everything Gabby needed (crate, toys, and a big fence yard. We would definitely use her again!”

“Jeanne’s wonderful! She’s so lovely, calm, friendly, and warm. Jeanne’s home and garden are a paradise oasis of fun for humans and animals alike. Our dog loved her dogs, and they romped and played together. Jeanne also treated our pup to a walk through her beautiful, peaceful, safe neighborhood. We look forward to bringing our dog to visit Jeanne anytime.”
About: I've cared for dogs for friends over the years, and it's always been a rewarding experience. I'm excited to spend my summer meeting new dogs and providing them with loving, dependable care. I grew up with dogs and have experience with puppies as well—we once took in a stray who turned out to be pregnant, so I got firsthand experience helping care for a litter. Being around dogs has always been a big part of my life, and I enjoy giving them the attention, exercise, and affection they deserve. I have a pretty flexible schedule and I can work with whatever your schedule is as long as I have a heads up. I am off work all summer so I can plan around things! I can also take your dog to the groomers etc. I have a fully fenced yard where your dog can safely play, plus a nearby trail for walks and a green space just a couple of blocks away for even more outdoor time. I provide attentive, personalized care and genuinely enjoy spending time playing with dogs, taking them on walks, and making sure they feel comfortable and happy. I'm also happy to come to your home for walks or drop-in visits. Whether your pup has a specific routine, feeding schedule, medication needs, or favorite activities, I'll follow your instructions carefully to ensure they receive the same loving care they're used to. My goal is to make every dog feel safe, well cared for, and loved while you're away.
“Brandi is absolutely amazing. Romeo had two special days of doggy day care with Brandi. We received photos and updates throughout each day which made us very happy and comfortable leaving our baby with her. Your pup will love her too! We will definitely rebook with Brandi when we are in the Sonoma County area again. Thank you Brandi ❤️🐾🐶”
About: I've trained my dog since she was a puppy, and I have a genuine love for animals. I excel in providing attentive and personalized care tailored to each pet’s specific needs.

I work from home, and am able to fit long walks in between meetings. Typically, I aim for about three to four walks per day. I will provide a lot of exercise for your dog! I will make sure they are safe and well cared for during the duration of their stay.
“Kyle and his wife did a great job watching my 2 small dogs all day long for 2 days. They made sure all their needs were met and updated me throughout the day with pictures. Thank you, guys!”
“Daniella was wonderful :) She clearly loves dogs and our pup immediately loved Daniella! She sent photos and videos and checked in with us - will definitely book with her again. Our pup had a blast!!”
About: Walks through Armstrong Redwoods are a favorite activity. I have a large yard and a dog friendly house. I have a couple of years experience working in a veterinary clinic giving me experience medicating animals, including giving injections. I have a pool for dogs who love to swim! I was a volunteer and puppy raiser for Canine Companions for Independence back in the mid to late 1980's, and a Puppy Petter for Assistance Dog Institute in the early 2000's. I've also kept busy with boarding in my home for friends and acquaintances. I love dogs!! I have Sundays and Mondays off from my full time job, but I can fit in a nice walk after 4 pm most other days. When I have someone's dog, they get my full attention; we play, exercise, snuggle. My focus is providing an enriching experience for your dog .
About: I’ve spent over ten years caring for dogs and cats of all ages from playful puppies and kittens to wise seniors. I work as a shepherd and look after sheep, goats and dogs, which has helped me stay calm, attentive and aware of behavior, safety,and fun. I’m trained in safe handling, bite prevention, and canine behavior and I rely on positive reinforcement to support pets. I take the responsibility of caring for your furry family seriously, making sure they feel safe, comfortable and loved while in my care. Animals are part of my everyday life. I make sure pets get attention, walks, playtime, and companionship on a regular schedule so they’re happy and healthy. I prioritize safety and comfort in every home. Pets are supervised, loved, and cared for with positive reinforcement so they feel secure and relaxed while you’re away.

“Sebastian did a fantastic job walking my dog! He was professional, reliable, and clearly cared about my dog’s well-being. I came home to a happy, relaxed pup, and I couldn’t be more pleased. I highly recommend Sebastian!”
“Kyle has been my go-to dog walker for the last two years. He walks my husky Korra 2-3 times per week depending on my schedule, and has also taken care of her when I've gone away on vacation. Kyle is kind, responsible, flexible and so easy to work with and communicate with. My work schedule shifts week to week, and I sometimes need to ask for a walk last minute, and Kyle is always able to help. We love him!”
About: Dogs & cats have been in my life since I was born! Growing up, I’ve taken care of so many dogs, cats, and even geckos. These lovely pets including my own, my neighbors, & my friends! I’m currently working Sunday and Monday mornings and in school part time on Tuesdays and Thursdays while focused on saving up money to further pay for my college education, so I have plenty of time available around those days to take care of your lovely pets! ♥️ My Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays are completely free and I’ll be happy to keep your furry friend company, on a walk, or check in on them while you are away. :) I have four (some very shy) cats and a dog at home, so while I am unable to bring cats into my own home, I will be able to stay full-time in your home with your fur babies and provide them with all the care they need, while they’re comfortably in their home-environment.
“Holly is the best and I highly recommend!!! She’s very attentive and quick to responses. Will continue to use her for future ! Also her children are the sweetest most behaved kids I’ve met in a long time. I know Mauka was in great hands !! 10000/10 ❤️”
“Michael has been great walking my Lab/Husky mix Ripley while I've been injured and unable to get him out, even taking him to the local dog park to play. Michael is prompt, professional, and responds to messages and booking requests quickly. Ripley is very excited to see him when he comes, and returns home very happy. We've already booked additional walks. Highly recommend!”

Your pet is in good hands with me:). **If this sounds interesting for you and your pet(s), SAVE my profile and I look forward to meeting you all!:) *We have a part ocelot adoptee cat at home, at moment.(Our previous cat even had a passport as, of course, she came back home with us to California:) I'll always be the #1 responsible person on the scene, and when appropriate (and animals/ you) feel safe and happy with it) I may occasionally walk/care with my family (Mats Andersson who is already here on Rover and also had all the checks:). and sometimes my super helper and animal whisperer assistant, Ella (10 years old/very mature and careful daughter:), who has a special way with animals, too.. She has loved animals since she was 4 days old when she came home to dogs and our cat.:) We love Cats, dogs and ++. I/we look forward to supporting both you and your furry (and maybe other) friends/family, soon. *Favorite/save my profile for the next time you go away or need a regular helper/walker*. My schedule has some flexibility. With my home studio, virtual clients and office, I'm home much of the day. Many days I coach and work from home. And, there are various late mornings (occasionally earlier mornings), mid-days and eves available, With exception of some school drop off and pick up times to get my daughter, I'm available for loving up and walking etc at/from your home or in your neighborhood, and some in home daycare/visits or occasionally at our house where we have our cat. You pet family member(s) safety and care is top priority. See my reviews, with high trust level. *Mutual communication is top priority:). I work and care with great responsibility, loving awareness, care and kindness. I'm careful and aware of other's homes, yards, gardens, gates and environments where I care for, walk, play with, feed and attend to your pet family's needs. Always entering with care and awareness, calling their name(s) gently alerting them to my entry, as well as slowly opening doors/gates to keep escape artists from darting out:)). We'll enjoy time together in or outside the house according the moment, instructions, their energy, health, the plan and all:). Having grown up with cats, dogs, ducks, rabbits, birds, etc, over the years, I'm aware of different temperaments and personalities of pet family members, how they like to be picked up and held (and not) and that, like people, each being is so individual. Getting to know each other with care is a high priority. I've also had multi-lingual animals around me, through living/travel/work in different areas of the world.. From simple quiet living to fragile perfection of Ambassadors homes, to our favorite neighbors, I've had the pleasure of taking care of all kinds of fur friends in their spaces:). As well, having had our own pet sitters/carers in past I have had strong experiences of all kinds to reflect on and that's sharpened my awareness of what's needed. Your home and pet(s) are in good hands with clear intentions for you and your pets to be at ease and have a good experience:), all around.
“Thank you, Amanda for always taking such great care of Bella, keeping an eye on her aging and alerting us to changes you’re seeing. We know she’s in great hands and enjoys her special time with you each day.”
About: I'm a lifelong animal lover with a flexible schedule and a deep love for exploring the outdoors. I raised my dog from a puppy and it was one of the most rewarding experiences of my life! I specialize in active walks and hikes for dogs who love to get out and explore- I like to work with a single dog at a time so I can really get to know them and develop strong communication with them. I know all the best dog-friendly spots in the area: Laguna de Santa Rosa, Riverfront Regional Park, Taylor Mountain, and the local bike trails. For older dogs, I'm happy to take it easy with gentle neighborhood strolls. I've also managed complicated medication routines for dogs in treatment, so I'm comfortable with pets who need extra care, need drop in visits, and I love cats too! I use positive reinforcement techniques and am comfortable with pets of most energy levels and temperaments. Whether your pup needs a trail adventure, your senior dog needs patient care, your cat needs some company, or you just need a reliable check-in, I'd love to help. My schedule is flexible, so I can accommodate last-minute requests, early mornings, or evenings—whatever works best for you and your pet. I know how important it is to find someone you can trust, my doggo was my world. I would love to be there for your pet! I work from home as a freelancer and can accommodate most requests on weekdays, sometimes I can also pick up work on weekends. I walk everyday, rain or shine and love to bring happy dogs on the trail! In My Home: I treat every pet in my care as if they were my own. I maintain a calm, safe environment and follow your established routines as closely as possible—from feeding schedules to playtime preferences. For dogs, I provide plenty of exercise through walks or hikes suited to their energy level, and I'm always attentive to their comfort and body language. I keep pets secure with leashed walks, and I'm vigilant about potential hazards both indoors and on trails. For pets on medication or special diets, I follow instructions carefully and keep detailed notes. I also provide regular updates with photos so you can enjoy peace of mind while you're away. Since I work from home, the pet is with me 24/7, with only short breaks if I need to go do an errand - in which case we use a crate. In Your Home: I respect your home as I would my own. I follow all your instructions for feeding, medication, routines, and house rules. I keep things tidy, secure doors and windows, and ensure your pet stays safe and comfortable in their familiar environment. I'm happy to bring in mail, water plants, or adjust lighting to give your home a lived-in feel while you're away. Communication is key, so I provide regular updates and am always available if questions come up. My goal is to make the transition seamless for both you and your pet.
About: I have five years of experience providing dependable house and pet sitting for multiple families, including stays of up to three weeks at a time. I understand how important it is to know that both your pets and your home are in good hands while you’re away. I’ve cared for cats, dogs, and even a ferret! I provide loving, attentive care to every furry friend, while also taking care of household needs like watering plants, collecting mail, and keeping an eye on the home. My goal is to help pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while giving their families peace of mind. After a career as an engineer and geologist with the State of California, I’m happily retired and enjoying a flexible schedule. When I’m not fan-girling over rocks or spending time at the bowling alley, I’m probably fan-girling over someone’s furry friend! Retirement gives me plenty of time to provide attentive pet care, and I can accommodate most schedules, including daytime visits, evenings, weekends, and overnight stays. My goal is for your pets to feel safe, loved, and comfortable in your absence. I’ll treat them with the same patience, kindness, and care I would want for my own pets.
About: I’ve always loved animals and have experience caring for dogs of different personalities, sizes, and needs. I’m patient, attentive, and treat every pet like they’re my own. I love going on walks, playing, giving cuddles, and making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I currently work as an on-call pharmacy technician, so I have a very flexible schedule. I’m also enrolled in school with online classes, which allows me to be home and available throughout the day. I’d love to spend that extra time caring for and keeping your pets company! I have the flexibility to give your pet the attention, care, and companionship they deserve. I have one dog at home and we have a doggy door that gives him access to our back yard that is fenced and gated.
About: I'm excited to be back to doing what I love best after some time away raising a kiddo and creating a home dreamy for humans and furry friends alike. Treat your canine friend to a retreat in the country and feel comfortable leaving them in the hands of a professional and certified trainer. With over forty years of experience with animals and as a reputable Trainer for an Assistance Dog organization, i have a strong background with animals and can provide a safe and fun environment. My home is a canine paradise! It's quiet and serene with plenty of shade, a fully fenced yard, and a private dirt road that meanders through the countryside right out our back door, - perfect for walks for the dogs. There ia a resident Labrador retrievers named "Heart" and a Bernese Mountaing Dog named "Stormy" They are great ambassadors and love to host furry friends. I can also offer training, baths/grooming just ask if you think you would like this. We look forward to your dogs vacay with us. Why I love dog sitting I know when I leave for vacation, knowing my animals are in good hands allows for me to relax and enjoy my time away worry free. Animal owners are some of the best people I have known and I love meeting new friends, human and furry alike. I work part time from home, so it makes for the ideal environment to incorporate dog sitting into the day. I care for the dogs as if they were my own and I hope that you will allow us the honor to care for you animals(s). I am currently working from home. I leave the house on occasion but can either take your dog with me for a car ride if they like that, leave your dog home or if you would prefer, crate it for a short time. I am never gone long when dogs are n my care. I treat all dogs as if they are my own and follow the instructions of the owners on what to do to make them comfortable while in my home.
“Another great Willa Walk week! Exceptional care especially with providing extra care and love while Miss Willa heals from her hiking injury last week which resulted in an emergency room visit with suture procedure. Andrea truly is a Willa whisperer and just so talented, caring, and a natural intuit. Huzzah!”
About: I am an animal lover and treat my own pets like part of the family. I am very active and love to take dogs on walks and I will love taking yours! I know they live for their walks! I will throw balls for your dog and take them to the park if wanted. I treat every dog the same and love them all...BIG or small. I am open to cats as well! My house is calm and tranquil. There are no kids in my house. My husky mix recently passed away suddenly in October and I miss her so much... Her name was Lily and she lived for her 2x/day walks. That is part of why I am doing this as a part time job because I miss my dog and would love to be around animals more. Pick me to take care of your loved one! I do work full time and I am gone 8-5 unfortunately. So weekends would be best for me. I’d be willing to do weekdays but you would have to be comfortable with me being gone during the day. I would take them on 2-3 walks per day.. 1 in the morning before work and 1 as soon as I get home from work. Unfortunately I don’t have a yard, just a small deck. If it’s a cat, I would make sure they had care and attention when I am home.
About: I've had the privilege of being a dog mom for the last 13 years which lands me a ton of experience caring for dogs but I love caring for all animals! I'm currently freelancing part time and have the flexibility (especially during the day) to make house calls and go for daily walks. I'm also available weekends! When caring for pets in my client's home, I prioritize their well-being and strive to provide a comfortable and nurturing environment. I ensure that their basic needs and give them tons of attention and affection, engaging in playtime and cuddles to keep them mentally and emotionally stimulated. Overall, my goal is to create a loving and reliable caregiving experience for pets.
“We had our first drop in and walking visit with Michelle and nothing but high praise and tail wags for her services. She a wonderful communicator and clearly in great command in being able to entertain and walk our two our two fur babies. 2 dogs, higher costs- but piece of mind in knowing that an experienced caring person will be here. We look forward to seeing her again for walks, drops in and some future planned over night house visits. Eileen F”

I have no doubt that Daisy is in good hands with Melissa .”
