“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.”
“We’ve used Angela twice now to watch Winnie, and she’s been great every time. She’s reliable, flexible, and communicative, but most importantly, she is so kind to Winnie. The extra outings and adventures she takes her on are such a nice touch. Highly recommended!”
“This was my 1st time using Rover and I had absolutely the best experience leaving my puppy with Brandi. I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing he was being well take care of and loved. The update pictures and videos she sent me, during his time with her, added to my comfort level. I will 100% be a returning customer of Brandi's.”
“Sunny returned a very happy boy after getting to run around a beautiful property with lots of new friends. David was kind, responsive and flexible! Would love to have Sunny visit again when we're in the area :)”
“I can’t say enough how wonderful it is to leave my little best friend with Debbie. She’s just so reliable, relaxing to be with and truly loves her fur visitors with her heart. I actually was a little jealous that fluff got to be the one hanging out with her and not me! Ha Ha! Definitely a safe, secure and nurturing environment for YOU and your loved one. 🐶”
“Pixie came home happy and healthy! Lauren and Ben took wonderful care of her for six days. They sent us regular photos and updates, which really put our minds at ease while we were away. When our flight got canceled, they were incredibly accommodating. They helped us extend the booking and happily let Pixie stay with them for an extra day, which we truly appreciated. We're so grateful for their kindness and excellent care. We'll definitely book with them again in the future!”
“Diego had an excellent stay with Crystal and Rosie (her dog). I received updates and pictures along the way and I really appreciated Crystal taking such great care of Diego. 100% recommend!”
“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 .”
“I was originally concerned about having to board my 4 month old pup. However, as soon as I met Marie at our Meet and Greet prior to his stay, I felt completely confident that this would be a good experience for him. Marie is extremely knowledgeable about dogs and their behaviors, and he stayed in her home, so I knew he was in good hands. She also has a 4 month old pup of her own that got along great with my boy. It was a perfect match.”
“Very happy with Jennifer looking after our dog. She took great photos of him and sent us updates of his stay. We just picked him up and he's one happy and very tired dog! We will definitely have her look after him again. Highly recommend!”
“With only a couple of days notice I asked Stefanie if she’d watch our shy little dog overnight who also needed to receive a couple of oral medications. Stefanie responded quickly to my request. Drop off and pick was easy and I received texts with updates & pictures showing our dog enjoying her stay. Our dog came home happy and healthy. Thank you Stefanie!”

About: I owned two cats for 7 years. I cleaned their litter boxes daily and spoiled them with different cat treats and toys :-) Also, I worked at Marin Humane Society for almost a year as an animal care technician and then volunteered for an additional year when I went back to school to earn my college degree.I also currently do drop in visits for a cat in Windsor once a week and house sit there occasionally.

About: I absolutely adore animals. They’ve been an integral part of my life for a long time! I’ve had many overnight jobs taking care of cats and dogs for family friends or neighbors. From changing the litter box regularly to taking the dog on long walks! I’ve dealt with many senior dogs and some puppies. I am currently a student at the junior college but I am willing to work in times to walk or watch your pets. My schedule at the moment is pretty open so contact me for further details! Not only do I take care of animals with their physical needs but also emotional. I’ll make sure your pet is given what it needs when you’re away! All the pets and cuddles (if they enjoy that).
About: Hi there!👋🏼 My name is Paige, and I’m 24 years old with a passion for dogs! I’ve been working with dogs since I was 15 and I’ve done everything from working hands on in a boarding facility, to walking and training pups daily, to 3 years as a vet tech! I’ve had many great opportunities that have allowed to me house sit with pups, taking pups to and from appointments, spending the day with pups, and checking in on them throughout the day. I’ve helped neighbors, family, and friends with caring for their pets for years; feedings, walks, house sitting long term or just for the day, and much more. I’ve handled dogs at all sizes, from small chihuahuas to big great danes! I have experience in working with puppies and senior dogs, as well. I’d love to hear from you and get get to know your furry friends! I’m currently working full time, Monday through Friday as a dog walker & trainer. My availability starts at 5pm on weekdays, and on weekends, my availability is 8am-8pm. I always will make sure your pets safety comes first! If needed, I will make the safest decisions if having to leave them briefly unattended, and will always make sure there is no possibility for an unsafe environment. I’m very familiar with what products are or are not safe for your pets to be around & have gained experience and knowledge on how to properly handle any emergency situations that may occur. I have a very friendly, playful & respectful 3year old cattle-dog mix that hasn’t met a dog that hasn’t become her best buddy, with housesitting she is part of my requirement to be able to bring with me, but she is no threat, just a big cuddle bug!🐶 I’m currently working full time starting at 7:45am, and ending at 5pm in Santa Rosa. I do have a 2 year old cattle dog mix who will need to come with me for housesitting gigs. She gets along perfectly with every dog, and will not stay home alone with your furry companions, to ensure comfortability. My weekends are very flexible with accommodating for me to have time to walk with your pet, have play time, or just going to make sure your pet is doing good while you’re away for the day! I will always make sure your pup is well cared for! Your animals safety is my #1 priority. I’ll always make sure the surrounding environment is accommodating, pet friendly, and safe. When I have to step out of the house for any extended period of time, it’ll be my first priority to leave them in a safe environment.
“Ashleigh was the absolute best! She took wonderful care of our two cats, and they absolutely loved her. Even our very timid cat wouldn’t get off her lap, which says everything about how comfortable she felt with her. We loved getting updates while we were away and knew they were in great hands. We’d definitely book with her again!”
About: I've taken care of cats ever since I started volunteering at a shelter at 10 years old. Because of my 18 years of animal shelter work, I've befriended all kinds of cats with a range of personalities and needs. Though I love every cat I've ever met, my heart lies with the shy kitties. The joy I get from showing a nervous cat that I'm a friend is unmatched. Cats have enrichment needs too! I am commited to making sure your feline friend gets exactly what they need when you're away. Whether that's cuddling up together or a high-octane play session, I'm ready to provide! I'm serious about punctual, reliable care and keeping your bestie on the schedule they know and love. I was taught clicker-training by an actual cat trainer (yes, they exist!) and love to mentally enrich cats using soft clicks and lots of treats. I also have lots of experience with medicating our more particular cat friends as well as how to handle our more fractious feline friends! So if you've got a cat who has no problem expressing their boundaries or is a little sassy, I'm here to make sure they're safe and respected!
About: I have always had cats in my home, I am genuine and loving towards all animals and will take exceptional care of yours each day! I believe great pet care starts with communication. I welcome any details about your pet’s routines, quirks, preferences, medications, or dietary needs…the more information, the better. I’m always happy to review written instructions and refer back to them as needed.
“Rachael was amazing with our cats. Lady is totally bonded with her, and she was incredibly patient and respectful of our shy cat, Ghost, who prefers to stay hidden. Rachael gave thoughtful, funny, and detailed updates that truly reassured us that our pets were happy and well cared for. She also took great care of our home, kept everything clean, and even handled things like kitty trash without us having to ask. It’s obvious she genuinely cares about the animals she watches. We absolutely trust her with our pets and highly recommend her.”
About: I’ve always had cats in my household since I was 9 years old. Currently all my sisters including my mom have a cat so we have 4 cats in total. The cat on my profile is called Bonbon and I’ve had him for 3 years. So I understand how to take care of cats. I know how to trim their nails how much they need to be fed. As well as dealing with their cute attitudes.
About: I have 3 cats of my own. They have their own cat room that I keep clean daily and make sure youngest menace is tucked into bed at night. I know what it takes to make sure your cats will have the love and attention they need. Being a vet assistant, I’m able to understand them better and help ensure they don’t get too fearful or feel uncomfortable when I’m there.
“Sarah was the absolutely BEST cat boarding service I could have wished for! My two cats were so content and happy after staying with her for 2 weeks! She pampered them with lots of pettings, brushing their hair, playing with them and more. She accommodated our unique needs and I was thrilled. I HIGHLY recommend Sarah for any of your pet sitting or boarding needs.”
About: I have been providing dedicated pet‑sitting services for over 20 years, drawing on the experience of a 25‑year veterinary career during which I’ve owned and cared for many cats and dogs. Animals have always been at the center of my life. We recently said goodbye to our beloved 18‑year‑old kitty in August, and we currently share our home with a sweet 15‑year‑old cat and a lively 5‑year‑old rescue dog who keeps us smiling. I can administer oral medications as well as injectable and subcutaneous fluids. I also have many years experience in tube feeding via an endotracheal feeding tube.

“I 100% recommend Crystal and Rosie! I contacted her last minute asking her to watch my pitbull Lucy. Crystal scheduled a meet and greet the very next morning. Lucy instantly fell in love with both Crystal and Rosie. Crystal sent me updates a few times a day to make me feel comfortable. Lucy cant wait to go back!”
“Deborah is great! My pups were in good hands and she really enjoyed them. They had smiles on their faces and wagging tails when I got there to pick them up. I cannot recommend her more. Definitely would do repeat business with her again.”
About: I will spoil your dog with attention and provide you with complete peace of mind. You can rest assured that your dog is safe and happy and getting the care you specify (such as health needs or special diet) and the love your dog wants (games, walks, toys, treats, hugs, and other canine amusements). My work is part-time, online, and at my own pace, so I can easily shift my attention to your dog's needs for walks and playtime. I have a small fenced yard with artificial grass, and there is a large park at the end of the street, two or three small parks in the neighborhood, and a 2-mile trail to downtown. I have whatever a dog needs but ideally, pets should arrive with their own favorite "furniture," toys, and treats.
“Angela and her son were super accommodating with a last-minute request to dog sit. I felt like my pup was well cared for, and they were both super communicative and quick to respond. Highly recommend Angela for watching your furry friends.”
About: I have co existed with dogs my entire life, and began dog walking and dog sitting regularly nearly 10 years ago. I also have spent numerous years working for a local dog boarding facility. I currently work remotely which gives me free time to hang with your dog at the 10 acre ranch I live on. I prefer to dog sit in my own space but can be flexible if the timing is right. I am most interested in doggy daycare dog and house sitting as a side hobby. *while housesitting dogs & owners must be comfortable that I bring my own dog with me. he is a well socialized friendly 8 yr old cattle dog. I work remotely Sunday though Wednesday 3pm to 11pm. This schedule alows me to be flexible with dog sitting and doggy daycare during the week. I am available outside those hours for dog walking. I provide safe, loving care on my fenced ranch for boarding or in clients’ homes, offering exercise, attention, and a stress-free environment for every pet
“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.”
“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.”

“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!”
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.
“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.”

“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!!”
About: Hi there! 🐾 I’m a lifelong animal lover and a proud pet parent who has been caring for dogs and cats since I was about 8 years old. As an adult, that’s given me a lot of experience with animals of all shapes, sizes, personalities, and quirks! ❤️ I’ve cared for dogs ranging from 10 lbs to 100+ lbs and have experience with puppies, senior pets, and dogs who need a little extra patience and understanding. I’m comfortable with behavioral challenges including anxiety, reactivity, and food aggression, and I have hands-on experience with puppy training and basic commands. Cats have also been a huge part of my life. I’ve lived in multi-cat households for most of my life and have experience with cats and kittens of all personalities. One of my most memorable experiences was when a stray cat came into my home and ended up giving birth to her kittens right on my lap! 🥹🐱 I’m also comfortable caring for chickens and have some experience with birds, rabbits, reptiles, and fish. I regularly pet sit for friends and family, and I decided to join Rover because caring for animals is genuinely something I love doing. I work full-time, so pet sitting is my fun little side job—and I couldn’t ask for a better one! 🐶🐱💕 I don’t have any breed restrictions and I’m happy to follow your pet’s routine, instructions, and individual needs. I know how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pets in someone else’s care, so I’ll treat them like my own, communicate with you, and send updates as often as you’d like. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry (or feathered, scaly, or fluffy!) family members! 🐾✨ I currently have morning and afternoon free time. If you have scheduling questions, please ask! I would love to work things out and care for your pet! I follow directions well, so if there are any specific needs I will do my best to meet them. I can communicate as much or as little as you need with app updates and pictures.
“Earl is great with flexibility, last minute bookings, and was gracious about my being almost ten minutes late due to traffic. His rate is very affordable and I really appreciated how my dog wasn’t left alone in the home. In terms of communication, I didn’t get much in terms of updates but was provided one when I asked how my dog wasn’t left doing. I also didn’t receive any check in pictures, which isn’t a big deal but always nice. I appreciate Earl and his brother Rob for their help!”
About: Hey, I’m Chappy! Christopher is my legal name… I specialize in walking / caring for large dogs and working breeds, but am happy to work with all breeds and sizes. I have worked with high-energy, reactive, less than sociable dogs too, giving them the physical and metal fulfillment they need. I personally have two larger dogs, Count (German Shepherd Husky mix, 110lbs) and Bentley (German Shepherd Dutch Shepherd mix, 80lbs). I’ve also worked with a range of breeds from pugs to golden retrievers to Alsatian shepherds to American bull dogs. I’m a freelance, work from home marketer, so I’m pretty much always at home and available to take care of dogs, or am able to come to you and take your pup out. We live on roughly 8 acres in Sonoma County, so there is plenty of room at our home for dogs to run and explore. I have two friendly German Shepherd mix dogs that love having friends over. We also have a secure deck that the dogs loving sunbathing on and watching the world go by. I can crate your dog, if need be (we have a crate / room for crates), along with the ability to keep dogs separate if need be. Should your dog use a e-collar of any sort, I’m trained in properly using them, as both of my dogs are trained to them. If your dog loves to hike, we regularly go for hikes on the trails around Sonoma County, or to Dillon Beach to run around off leash.

About: I love animals. I’m compassionate, caring, dependable, honest and sincere. I’ve been around dogs all of my life. I’m a mom of two boys, a caregiver and I also have two dogs of my own. Before starting a family, I volunteered at local animal shelters and worked at the Marin Humane Society for almost a year as an animal care technician. Also, my older son is studying to become a vet tech and has a lot of personal experience with dogs and cats himself.I believe that pets are an integral part of the family and should be treated as such. You can count on me to provide the best service for your pet. Have a “ pawsitively” wonderful day! I can’t wait to meet your furry family member! I work as a direct support professional for a group home for disabled women in Windsor. I have a split shift schedule, and have Fridays and Sundays off. It’s only about a ten minute commute to work across town. I also volunteer at an animal sanctuary once a week. I have extensive experience with animals. I have a fenced yard and a one level home. I no longer have two small dogs of my own, a Jack Russel/chihuahua mix and a shitzu/maltese/bichon mix +, one passed away in October and the other in January of this year from old age. I treat each pet I care for as if they were my own. With love , compassion, patience and attention to detail and safety.

“Michael was wonderful, an easy five-star experience. He took the time to come by beforehand to meet Mika and Pedro and get to know them before their first walk, which immediately made me feel like they were in safe hands. What really stood out was how attentive he was to the little things that matter to me as their owner. He asked whether I cared more about getting miles in or giving them time to sniff and explore, and he even let me show him our routine for crossing streets, having them wait while we check both ways before giving them the “let’s go.” I really appreciated that he wanted to keep things consistent with what the dogs already know rather than just doing things his own way. Communication was great, the dogs clearly had a great experience, and as a bonus, Michael takes fantastic photos! I highly recommend him and will absolutely be booking with him again.”
About: Hello! I am Marley and I am currentIy a seventh grade teacher in the Santa Rosa area. I have been around various pets my entire life. I grew up with 5 large dogs, a cat, tortoises, snakes, hamsters, parakeets and much more! I absolutely love animals, big or small, furry or not. I can teach dogs commands and tricks, which I have done with my parents’ Australian Shepherd and Australian Cattle dog over the last 7 years. Examples of simple include: sit, down, stay, roll over, heel, and much more. I currently have a one and a half year old golden retriever that I adore named Maisie, she too has learned many tricks. I am an extremely punctual individual and reliable, as I have never been late to a day of work in my life. I am extremely passionate and will do nothing but love and dote on your pets. I look forward to meeting you and your furry companion! Because I am a teacher, my summers are completely open to fit the needs of the families that need pet care. I am free both weekdays and weekends to watch over and take care of your furry companion. I am a big animal lover and treat my pets like they are family. When taking care of others’ pets, I treat them like my own pets and give them the attention and love they deserve.
About: My name is Nicole. I have been an animal lover since I was old enough to know what animals were. Between catching potato bugs, feeding the spiders in my windowsills, and moving worms off of sidewalks, I’ve always had a particular connection with the animals that most people don’t understand. As soon as I was old enough, I marched off to the Sonoma County Animal Services to volunteer. From there, it was love at first bark. When I turned 18, I immediately went to animal care as my first real job and was lucky enough to work at Rohnert Park Animal Services for several years. I opened my home to many different rescue critters including snakes, tortoises, rats, lizards, and birds. I rescued my first dog and she is still my best friend to this day 10 years later! Over the years, I was blessed to foster many different exotic animals and worked with the Sacramento SPCA through the pandemic. Shortly after, I made a huge cross-country move and ended up in Louisiana working with all kinds of critters at Northshore Humane Society. From there, I ended up back in my hometown of Sonoma County. Throughout all of these changes, the one variable that never changed was my love for animals and passion for making sure they were safe. Through my 8+ years of shelter experience I have worked with the most feral of feral cats, wildlife brought in shoeboxes, all sizes and shapes of dogs, and so much more. I have met and befriended many pets that were reluctant to be befriended and worked with virtually every breed of cat and dog on the planet. I am fear-free certified and have extensive experience with medication management, basic first-aid, canine CPR, and basic training for both dogs and cats. I am experienced with walking large breeds including reactive dogs and can handle heavy pullers (I have TWO huskies!). I have also volunteered with the Bird Rescue Center of Sonoma County and have a special skillset with exotic animals. My two personal rescue dogs are half husky and bully breed which are two of the most misunderstood dog breeds, so there will be no breed discrimination from me. My favorite furry friends are often shy, tricky to befriend, or nervous. Making a scared baby comfortable means the world to me and I love the challenge. As stated above, I also have extensive experience caring for exotic pets including rats, mice, birds, snakes, tortoises, turtles, fish, lizards, invertebrates, and spiders. I am perfectly comfortable with your exotic pet’s diet and am familiar with feeding snakes and other reptiles frozen-thawed rodents. The only animals I won’t consider petsitting for are species that are illegal to own or venomous. If I had to summarize my truest passion, it would be making sure that every single animal feels safe and comfortable. Even if they’re not perfect, they all deserve kindness and patience. We don’t expect perfection from humans, but we so frequently expect it of animals. So if your pet is a little bit quirky or one of those types that gets dismissed as “scary” or “mean”, you’ve found a person that will give them exactly what they need to feel loved and cherished. Because no pet is perfect, but they are perfect for you. My promise to you is that I will do my best to be your baby’s new BFF. No pet sitter will truly replace you, but I will make sure that I’m the second-best thing. I work from home as an administrative assistant for my husband's guitar studio, so I have a flexible schedule to meet your specific needs. I have access to a reliable car and am happy to do multiple drop-ins so your buddy is comfortable all day long. My motto is that ALL animals deserve humane, kind, and compassionate care. My 16 years in animal shelters has gifted me with experience handling virtually every type of pet of all different shapes, sizes, personalities, and needs.

About: Fully vaccinated even have a booster shot and work at Paradise Pet Resort as a Dog Play supervisor. Have been petsitting since I was a kid and have volunteered many times at Sonoma County Animal Shelter and even worked at Sonoma Humane Society. Currently have a beagle and 2 cats. Through petsitting and volunteering I also learned to give meds including insulin and learned to care for all different size dogs and cats from small to large. My favorite part is getting to know your pets and spending time with them. I have experience with dogs, cats, reptiles, birds, fish and even small mammals such as hamsters and guinea pigs. Even have watched some chickens before. Have an AA in Natural Science and working towards another AA in Natural resources then I get into internships from there. Work at a pet resort. Typically take care of them In the morning and try to come somewhere in the middle of the day to check on them and feed them at night. I check in on them 2-3 times a day and if needed I can stay with them at night. Will walk them at least 30 mins or more 2x a day unless asked other wise cats I will try to spend time with them unless they don’t come won’t chase them. Will clean up after them make sure they have necessities and play with them.
About: I’ve always loved cats and dogs I could never pick a side. I had a Chihuahua growing up and currently have a cat called Bonbon. So I know how to take care of both dogs and cats. I understand cats enjoy their space while dogs don’t understand that word. Which I don’t mind at all. :) I am currently going to school right now so I have a lot of time in between my days to take care of your pet(s) wether it’s stopping be for their meal time or taking them on a walk I am happy to do so. I have classes currently Mondays and Wednesdays so my availability might be little more tight but will still be available. I know how to keep pets safe such as know in what dogs and cats should refrain from eating and can make sure that your pet is always safe and knows they are being cared for while you are away.

About: I am a fish biologist, but love all animals. I am new to Rover, but my friends and coworkers regularly rely on me to care for their pets. I have cared for dogs with special needs, such as epilepsy, senior dogs and puppies. I have done basic dog training courses with my 30 lb tripod dog and volunteered walking dogs at my local shelter. I will treat your furry family member with love and care! I work remotely from 8-4:30 pm most weekdays, so I’m available to provide attention and fun for your pet most of the day. I usually go to the office on Mondays and Thursdays, but have flexibility to accommodate if your pet cannot be alone for 8 hours. I am an active person and would love to take your dog to the park or beach or for walks on trails, if they do well in those settings. If your dog is lower energy, I can match that energy too! I am excellent at following directions and will follow your pets normal schedule. I am observant and will pay attention to your pet’s well-being.

I work from home on weekdays, so would just require internet access.
About: I have been raised with dogs my entire life. Before I was born there were large dogs in the house which I grew up alongside. As I grew the number of pets in the house increased to include exotic animals like reptiles and farm animals. From 9 years old I was individually responsible for the care of a flying squirrelly who lived a happy life until she aged. From 13, myself and my siblings were responsible for the care of large and small farm animals as well as four dogs in the household at one time. My unique experience with many types of animals makes me a prepared caretaker ready to take on any challenge your pets may have. I have open availability to house sit or drop in anytime. My weekends are also open. Early mornings and late nights are available aswell, dm me with any questions 😊. All pets recieve me full devotion when they have my time. Dogs and cats require more connection with people than many realize so I strive to maintain their activity needs as well as their attention needs. Furthermore, any pets that are supposed to stay indoors will stay indoors and pets will be fed and walked promptly. Medicine will be administered any way and any time the pet parent requires.
“Lizeth is very reliable and responsible and a good communicator. She’s t great with dogs and cats alike and my fur babies look forward to her visits! I highly recommend Lizeth!”
About: Hi! I'm Sarah. I love all animals and like to give them the care and love they deserve! I’ve had pets all my life. I'm kind, positive, gentle, and calm. My patience and calm demeanor allow animals to feel very comfortable around me. I have experience giving cats subcutaneous fluids 3x/wk for 7 months, oral meds (liquid and pill form for 1.5 years), facials, baths, and showers. and I'm sensitive & observant to animals' needs. I do my best to understand animal behavior and what they're communicating. When I adopted my cats, Sparkles & Zorro, they truly adopted me as their mom. They were a few months old & I was 10. I was their person, and the only one Sparkles completely trusted. They passed in 2019 & 2024. My dad and I found and revived a young robin from a flood after a tornado. When I come across wildlife or strays in need, I will go to the ends of the earth to help. In college I had a zoology emphasis & interned at an exotic wildlife rehabilitation center. I have volunteered at a local animal shelter washing dogs, cleaning kennels, & socializing with cats & dogs. I also volunteered at a farm animal sanctuary. We began rescuing cats since the LA wildfires and I fostered one. With a positive attitude and a readiness to learn, I'd complete the tasks assigned, giving attention to the animals as I go along. After finishing my work on the sanctuary, I'd thoroughly socialize with the animals, spending time in different barns/rooms each week so that all, from pigs to cats, receive equal attention. My skills allow me to notice a creature in need of help and be an advocate until the animal is safe and/or in the right hands. In addition to being an animal-lover, I am a people-person who enjoys the camaraderie that comes with being part of a team. Sincerely, Sarah I'm currently looking for work and I'm an actress so I'll have plenty of time to care for your pets and treat them like my own. I will treat your pet as though they were my own. I will make sure they are properly cared for, this includes playing with them, quality time, feeding, and bathroom time.

We're so grateful for their kindness and excellent care. We'll definitely book with them again in the future!”

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

“Rosemary was able to take care of our puppy last minute and we thank her so much for it! She let us know that he did good which made us happy, she also let us know that he went on a walk and was able to play in her backyard! We will definitely consider her to take care of our boy the next time we need it. Again we thank you so much! ?”
