“Alexis and her family took great care of my 2 pups for the weekend! She was super communicative and it was like my pups went to summer camp. Her house is great for dog play! Thank you!”

“Princess was great from the start. Her communication was prompt and she received Kaci with open arms. My dog immediately felt comfortable. She didn't just walk him for a simple potty break but took him on longs walks and to the park. The bonus was he ate all his food which means he was having a blast. I will definitely be using Princess again to watch Kaci.”

“Christine is fantastic! She has a lovely home she keeps cool for the dogs. She sent daily updates with pics so I knew how my dogs were doing. She was also flexible when we needed to extend our trip by a couple nights. I highly recommend her and will be using her again soon.”


“This was our first time using Rover, and Anna was GREAT! sent photos of our sweet Holly, fast with communication, thorough. We felt so comfortable knowing that our dog was well cared for while we were away. Will book again if I’m in the area!”

“Thomas responded quickly and was very friendly! Cosmo clearly felt right at home with him and had a great time during his stay. Whenever we're in the area again I will definitely be reaching out to have Thomas dogsit Cosmo!”

“We had a wonderful experience and would recommend her to anyone looking for a fantastic sitter! She took incredible care of Bailey, making sure he got plenty of exercise on a walk and even taking him down to a creek to splash around and swim. Her dog was super friendly and played so well with him. We would highly recommend her to others.”

“Myah was wonderful! She and her family were incredibly kind and welcoming, and I felt completely at ease leaving my dog in their care. She sent updates and photos every day, which I really appreciated while I was away. My dog seemed happy and well cared for. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy sitter.”

“Barbara and her family are delightful and kind. Oliver enjoyed his stay with them very much, and I felt comfortable leaving him knowing he would be cared for, as I would care for him.”

“MiLana was great in caring for my dog. Juniper isn’t used to having a ton of dogs around, but MiLana sent pictures when I asked and reassured me Juniper was okay! She was also extremely flexible with pick up and drop off. Thank you for the help and constant communication!”

About: I've worked with animals my whole life. From rescuing wild animals to domestic animals. I have experience with bathing dogs and cats. I have also cared for senior animals as well. I give my all to animals because I know what it's like to have no voice. I'm currently not working so I am available full time. I can pick up, walk, bathe, drive to appointments as well as any other needs you may have. I have a daughter who shares my love of animals as well as 2 cats who live in my home. I can shelter animals in my home for a short amount of time as I have an apartment which may be too small for some breeds. I walk take dogs for a walk every 2 hours or more depending on their needs. I would be more than willing to care for pets in their own home as well as I know it can be easier on the pet and pet parents. Anything you need I am here to help!

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 3 years and love providing dependable, personalized care. I offer flexible scheduling and overnight stays in your home, so your fur baby can stay comfortable in their own space. Whether your pet needs long walks, playtime, quiet companionship, or all of the above, I’m happy to adapt to their routine. I’m reliable, communicative, and committed to making sure your pet feels safe, happy, and well-cared for while you're away. Every visit is about building trust—with both you and your pet! Pet care fits perfectly into my routine right now—I’m currently taking a year off from school, which means I have a very open and flexible schedule, 7 days a week. This allows me to be fully available for daytime visits, evening check-ins, and overnight stays as needed. I’m happy to work around your dog’s usual routine and provide consistent, reliable care whenever you need it. When caring for pets in your home, I always prioritize creating a safe, comfortable, and loving environment for your furry friend. Over the last 3 years of dog sitting, I’ve built respectful and trustworthy relationships with clients, friends, and family friends by consistently showing genuine care and respect for both their puppies and their homes. I understand how important it is to honor your space and routine, so I make sure every visit feels familiar and stress-free for your pet. You can count on me to treat your home and your dog with the kindness and responsibility they deserve.

“Angelia did a great job with my boys! She was very responsive and sent me messages with any questions. She came and played with them while I was on vacation. She took AWESOME pictures to send me everyday. She even made a cute little AI picture when I told her it was one of the boy's 1st birthday. I was able to relax and enjoy my vacation because I knew my boys were in good hands! They didn't seem stressed or starved for attention when I came home, which I was so worried about. Thank you! I will be rebooking =)”

“Myah was punctual and very conscientious about taking care of our cats. She even called with a concern she had (which turned out to be not a problem, but she was concerned). I highly recommend Myah for pet sitting!”


“Oliver was so attentive with my cat. He was promptly communicating whenever necessary and sent me lots of photos. I felt great knowing that Tigger was well taken care of. I highly reccomend!”

About: I have owned and cared for animals my entire life. I have experience with dogs, cats, bunnies and some livestock animals. Dogs are my favorite and I have had the most experience owning and caring for them. I’m experienced with all different kinds of breeds, temperament and age dogs. I always care for them like I would my own animals (spoiled! Lol). I am currently not accepting animals in my home but am happy to do drop ins, walks and house sitting. I work from home and have a lot of flexibility with my schedule. I am almost always home and pay attention to cues that dogs need attention or to the go outside. I have one dog who is treated like a family and spoiled like a prince. Animals are allowed on the couch and to sleep in bed if you desire. There is always plenty of fresh water, treats, toys and room to play.

“Alexis is the best pet sitter we’ve ever worked with. She was great with out cats…even the shy one warmed up to her. We didn’t worry for a moment. Her updates were timely and thoughtful. We would happily work with her again and again.”


About: I've owned cats and dogs my whole life. Our current cats are brother and sister that turned 7 this past April. They were feral as kittens and now they are the most social, loving, and easy going cats. Both still have their wildness about them with being indoor outdoor cats. Out exploring during day, coming back in for afternoon naps and night time lock down.

“Michele responded quickly to my initial request. She came to my house to meet the cats and talk to me, which made me feel comfortable that they would be well taken care of. She sent me frequent pictures and videos, showing the cats playing and having a good time. I suspect they enjoyed their time with her more than the day to day they spend with me. She even informed me that one of my cats likes to participate in yoga. After 9 years, this was new information. When I came home the house was clean and cats were happy. I would highly recommend Michele.Hopefully she is available the next time I go out of town.”

“Diego did a phenomenal job with our 3 cats while we were on a weekend trip! He sent updates and pictures on every visit and we could tell our kitties had a great time! They were happy and relaxed when we got home.”
About: I’ve had a dog growing up for 6 years when friends and family go out of town or busy day they always call me to help they know I’m always willing and treat them like my own dog while they are away I’m currently going to school only in the mornings I’m available before and after classes with weekends free to take out animals for walks and spend time and nights available home very often I have an unfenced yard can take on walks as well anywhere in my apartment the animals are free to roam places to crate an animal very open to any Schedules or ways your animals like to sleep or their schedule
About: I’ve taken early retirement and have a lot of time in my hands. I have been pet sitting for a client with four dogs, a chihuahua , two frenchies and occasionally a German shepherd in their home. I cook their food, and I am a great housecleaner so your space will be nice when you come back home. I will take loving care of your cat or dog, only one pet at a time unless they are from the same household. I do not have any pets of my own at this time, which allows me flexibility in my schedule to be able to pet sit. I look forward to taking care of your fur baby. I took early retirement, so I will be home with the pet all day and night for whatever is needed. I have experience with senior dogs and frenchies. I am clean and considerate and love to spend time with animals. Your pet will receive personal attention and care with affection. I look forward to taking care of your pets.

“Prin and Max are such sweet and caring people! Chelsea stayed with them for the day until after dinnertime while we celebrated my birthday. She was calm and happy when we picked her up. Chelsea has separation anxiety and is an older chihuahua so we don't generally leave her alone. It is really great to find some kind & caring local people to take care of her when we can't be with her. Highly recommend them & so glad to have them on our team! We will definitely be using them again.”


“We were so grateful to have Alexis available to watch our dogs while we were visiting from out of town. She is incredibly flexible and our dogs clearly liked her. Would absolutely use her services again!”

“Milana was prompt in her responses and provided a high degree of flexibility which enabled our family to participate in our group’s activities where dogs were not welcome. Fort Bragg is dog friendly but it was amazing to have her as a reliable resource. Centrally located and very professional; highly recommend Milana!”


“I loved the updates of mg dogs and felt confident in their care with Anna. My dogs seemed tired which is perfect. They seemed very relaxed there too when I approached. I will be booking with Anna again.”

About: Dogs have been my passion for as long as I can remember. As a child, I spent much of my free time learning about different breeds, canine behavior, body language, health, grooming, and training. As an adult, that passion has only grown, and I have been fortunate enough to turn my lifelong love of dogs into a career. I have over eight years of professional experience working with dogs, including six years as a groomer and trainer at a boarding, grooming, and training facility, followed by two years as a professional groomer in a veterinary setting. Throughout my career, I have worked with dogs of all breeds, ages, sizes, and temperaments. In addition to my hands-on experience, I have completed numerous online and in-person educational programs through organizations such as the American Kennel Club (AKC) and industry conferences including the Pasadena Groom & Kennel Expo. My continuing education has included canine behavior and body language, canine CPR and first aid, breed standards and breed-specific grooming techniques, behavior modification, working safely with aggressive dogs, and training dogs with behavioral challenges. I believe there is always more to learn, and I am passionate about continuing my education so I can provide the highest level of care possible. One of my greatest strengths is understanding canine body language and behavior. I am highly proficient at recognizing stress signals, fear responses, anxiety, overstimulation, excitement, and other behavioral cues. Over the years, I have worked with everything from easygoing family pets to dogs struggling with reactivity, resource guarding, anxiety, fear-based behaviors, and other behavioral challenges. Understanding why a dog is behaving a certain way allows me to create a positive, safe, and low-stress experience tailored to each individual dog. I have also spent years fostering and grooming dogs for our local Humane Society, often taking on dogs that need extra patience, confidence-building, socialization, training, or behavioral support. Helping these dogs grow and succeed has been one of the most rewarding parts of my work. My experience as a groomer has taught me the importance of being observant and proactive. Groomers often see dogs more frequently than veterinarians and spend extended periods of time closely examining a dog's skin, coat, ears, eyes, feet, movement, and overall condition. Throughout my career, I have helped many clients identify potential concerns that later warranted veterinary attention, including food and environmental allergies, chronic skin conditions, ear infections, unusual lumps or bumps, coat changes, mobility concerns, and other health issues. While I never diagnose medical conditions, I take pride in recognizing when something appears unusual and encouraging owners to seek veterinary care. In many cases, early recognition helped owners find answers sooner and allowed their pets to receive treatment before problems became more serious or caused prolonged discomfort. I currently live on 10 acres with my three dogs: two Chihuahua mixes that I adopted as foster failures from the Humane Society and a Standard Poodle who has become somewhat of a local celebrity. Thanks to my grooming experience, he is known for his creative trims and has won local Halloween costume contests. He has also participated in community events where he helped demonstrate proper grooming and brushing techniques for pet owners. His friendly, outgoing personality and love of meeting new people are a reflection of the training, socialization, and care that I believe every dog deserves. Every dog is unique, and I believe exceptional care starts with understanding each dog's individual personality, needs, and communication style. Whether your dog needs a fun place to stay, specialized handling, extra patience, or simply someone who genuinely understands and loves dogs, my goal is to provide a safe, enriching, and low-stress environment where they feel comfortable, secure, and cared for like one of my own. As a stay-at-home mom, my daily routine allows me to spend a significant amount of time at home, which means your pet will receive plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship throughout the day. My dogs are an important part of our family's daily life, and caring for animals is already built into my routine. Each day includes feeding, potty breaks, exercise, playtime, enrichment activities, grooming as needed, and plenty of affection. Because I live on 10 acres, there is ample space for walks, exploration, and outdoor time, all while being carefully supervised. I also make it a priority to monitor each dog's behavior, comfort level, and overall well-being so I can adapt activities to their individual needs and personality. Whether your dog is energetic and loves to play, enjoys exploring outdoors, or prefers relaxing and receiving attention, I strive to provide a safe, structured, and low-stress environment where they feel comfortable and cared for. Since I am home throughout the day, your pet will not be left alone for long periods and will receive the same level of attention and care that I give my own dogs. The safety, comfort, and well-being of every pet in my care are always my highest priorities. Before accepting a booking, I take the time to learn about each dog's personality, routine, temperament, medical needs, and any behavioral concerns so I can provide care tailored specifically to them. At my home, dogs enjoy a spacious country setting on 10 acres. In addition to the large property, I have secure fenced areas available for supervised outdoor time, play, and potty breaks. Dogs are never left outdoors unattended, and I closely monitor all interactions between pets to ensure everyone remains safe and comfortable. Because of my professional background in grooming, training, fostering, and canine behavior, I pay close attention to body language and behavior at all times. I am highly skilled at recognizing early signs of stress, anxiety, fear, overstimulation, or conflict and can make adjustments before situations escalate. New dogs are introduced thoughtfully and at a pace appropriate for their comfort level. I understand that not every dog enjoys socializing with other dogs, and some pets may be more comfortable having their own space. For this reason, I have the ability to safely separate dogs when needed and can accommodate dogs that prefer limited interaction, require individual attention, need separate feeding arrangements, or simply do better in a quieter environment. My goal is always to set each dog up for success based on their individual needs rather than expecting every dog to fit the same routine. I maintain fresh water at all times, carefully follow feeding and medication instructions, and take precautions to ensure dogs cannot access anything unsafe. I am also trained in canine CPR and first aid, providing owners with additional peace of mind that their pets are in knowledgeable and capable hands. When caring for pets in a client's home, I strive to maintain their normal routine as closely as possible. Consistency helps reduce stress and allows pets to feel secure in their familiar environment. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, medications, exercise, household rules, and special needs. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident knowing their pets are safe, happy, and receiving excellent care. Every dog is unique, and my goal is always to create a safe, structured, low-stress environment where they feel comfortable, respected, and cared for like one of my own.

“Angelia was fantastic with my dog! Within just a few days, he was already looking forward to their walks. She is awesome to work with, and she even spent time with my cats. Will definitely book again!”


About: I have always had dogs in my life, I grew up on a ranch with an assortment of different breeds and sizes. I have two pups of my own, Goose is our Mastiff/St. Bernard puppy and Lady is my German Shepherd. They are both rescues, super energetic (but they also will leave other dogs alone if the dog doesn’t want to play), they love every dog under the sun. Growing up I have always had the joy of watching friends, family, and neighbors furry friends. When dogs stay with me you can expect they will have a great time, they have a giant yard/pool to run and play on and in, we also go on hikes in the forest or to the Lake, frequent trips to the park, and of course they will love to explore all that Mendocino County has to offer. What can I say, I love dogs and enjoy spending everyday taking care of them :) I hope to be the dog sitter for you I am a stay at home mom with my two kids, so it is very rare the pups are ever left alone. The only time I leave the house is to pick up my son from preschool 10 min down the road. Our back yard is completely fenced and I have two very friendly dogs that they will get to play with. I treat all dogs like my own so they always get the best care possible.

About: I have two medium-large (60+ pound) poodles, so I’m used to wrangling larger dogs. Also, I’m pretty firm about walking dogs on leash for their protection. I work from home as a freelancer and set my own schedule, so I’ve got as much or as little time as I want to spend caring for pets. I like to learn about a pet’s preferences and approach them with care to build trust. At my own home I have a fenced yard and two energetic dogs to romp around with.
About: I have 10+ years of experience caring for and owning dogs, cats, iguanas, tortoises, and chickens, etc. ranging from high energy Doberman puppies to senior Staffordshire Bull Terrier dogs where daily medication was needed. Currently I own a Great Pyrenees named Winter. I have a range of experience with different animals and I'm always willing to learn more. I'm currently working part time, so I'll have plenty of time to check in, walk, or play with your pet. I'm available Monday through Sunday. I live in a 4 dog, 2 cat household. Our dogs are all crate trained. We have 1 Great Pyrenees, 2 Pitbulls, 1 McNabb mix and 2 cats. All get along great and play well with each other. They all get taken on daily walks since we have no fenced in yard. Everyone happy, healthy and loved.
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.
“Diego is incredible!!! So attentive to detail and my two dogs absolutely loved his company. Couldn’t recommend enough. Thank you so much for all your help Diego!!”

About: I am an animal lover...have had pets my whole life. I currently live with one cat. I will take good care of your babies and they will have fun. I can do short & multiple daily visits closer to my home, longer ones/overnights farther away, or they can stay with me. Discounts for longer housesitting stays. Further away areas may require covering transportation costs. I currently work part time, so I have lots of time to spend with your pet. Play time and cuddle time are essential. Let me know what activities your pet enjoys. I will be directly with your pet most of the time. Depending on what you request, our activities will vary. Will do my best to stick to your pets' schedule and routine. I will stick to pet routines as close as possible. Dog will be involved in my routine as well. If I go to the office, and its appropriate, they can come with me. We will spend as much time outside as we can. Lots of walks. May come to work with me if appropriate. We will take lots of pictures.
