“Lauren and her husband were amazing! My husband and I boarded our 7 month old puppy, Cruz, while we were on a 10 day vacation. We were nervous to be away from him for such a long time. Our nerves were quickly relieved when we started receiving photos and videos of Cruz. We received a photo or video of Cruz everyday having so much fun with the other dogs! Cruz had a blast and loved being with Lauren and her husband. We have already booked Cruz’s next stay with Lauren :)”
“David was very easy to work with and responded quickly to our questions/ concerns. Our dogs had access to a few enclosed acres on the property which was great for the dogs...a beautiful setting as well. Our 3 dogs got along well with David's dogs and another visiting dog. Most important, I felt our dogs were in good hands with David.”
“Brandi is the absolute best! She is so attentive and loving, Huxley just smiles the whole time he’s there. She makes him feel right at home and treats him like her own. We absolutely love receiving the photos she frequently sends and even prints out for us to keep :) We are so grateful to Brandi and her loving family!!”
“My dog, Lily, had a wonderful overnight stay with Kyle and family. She seemed at ease and well cared for. Kyle was very responsive and willing to accommodate any of my requests to help Lily feel at home. Look forward to calling upon Kyle again!”
“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.”
“Angela took absolutely fabulous care of River while I was away! From chicken dinners, trips to the dog park for fetch, and even adventures downtown for pup cups. River was a happy dog and loved every minute with her. I would absolutely trust Angela again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for an amazing Rover sitter!”
“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!!”
“Excellent experience! Patricia and her family took extra great care of Teddy. We so appreciated them welcoming him in to their home. We would absolutely recommend her and use again if the need arises.”
“We are so grateful that Bernadette takes such good care of our little Skippy. Gives us such piece of mind to be gone, knowing that he has a friendly and caring place to stay.”
“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 .”
“Deborah exceeded our expectations as a pet sitter for our boys! From the moment we entrusted our pups to her care, she went above and beyond to put our minds at ease. One of the highlights was the adorable videos and pictures Deborah sent throughout their stay. These updates were super cute and reassuring, allowing us to see firsthand how happy and well-cared-for our dogs were. As someone who tends to feel anxious about leaving my pets with a new sitter, I truly appreciated Deborah's attentiveness to detail. She took the time to address all the little things that mattered to us, which significantly helped alleviate my concerns. Her thoughtful communication made us feel completely comfortable with the arrangement. Deborah's dedication to our pups' comfort was evident in every aspect of their stay. She even welcomed them to sleep in her bed, showing just how much she treated them as part of her family. We're thrilled to have found such a caring and reliable pet sitter in Deborah. Her services were outstanding, and we're excited to use them again in the future.”
“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.”

“Oksana was a great sitter for my elder pup. She made her feel right at home and my dog wasn’t even anxious at her house on the 4th of July when the fireworks happened. Oksana was easy to communicate with too. Would highly recommend her dog sitting services.”

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.

“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 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.
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.
“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.”
“I was so worried that my cat would not like his babysitter or that she wouldn’t know how to take care of him the way I do but she did so much more then I could ask for I had a great vacation knowing my cat was in good hands wouldn’t know what to do without her”
“It means a lot to me that Kyle and his wife were able to bond with my cats Scout and Moose so well. When I returned home after a 6 day trip my house was so clean and tidy and I really appreciated that. Scout and Moose were happy and healthy and that’s the most important . It shows that Kyle spent quality time. Kyle communicated regularly and sent the most excellent photos daily. I will certainly be in touch for future visits . 5 star”
“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.”
“Pamela took wonderful care of our two cats while we were away. She alerted us to the exact time she did her checkin and sent photos of their cute faces. She is lovely and reliable. We will definitely use her services again ☺️ Caylee”
“Micki took great care of our cat while we were out of town. She was very communicative and sent us frequent updates and pictures. We will reach out again next time we are out of town!”
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.
“Melissa did an amazing job connecting with our cats, know what they needed and keeping us in the loop. She has a real gift working with animals and it showed. Highly reccomend!”
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 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.
“Sarah was absolutely amazing with our two cats. One is very shy and the other can be a bit grumpy, but they both loved her. She made traveling less stressful knowing our cats were well taken care of.”

“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.”
“We were visiting the city and needed a sitter. They were so kind and accepted our request the day before. It was our first time leaving Lacey with someone we didn’t know, but they made sure we were comfortable and sent photos during her stay. So grateful we found them!”
“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.”
“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: 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
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.
“Crystal did a great job watching Frank for a daycare, I could tell he felt right at home from the photos. He got a lot of playtime in with her dog Rosie, and the two hit it off pretty quickly after an initial meet and greet the evening before. Will definitely reach out to Crystal again in the future when I am traveling in the area!”
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.
“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!”
“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.”
“Reliable and great! I’m a returning client as I trust her with my dogs and feel relaxed leaving them knowing they’re getting adequate needs met including long walks :) Amber is wonderful!”
“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.”
“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!”

“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!”
“My pup absolutely loves spending the day with Chris and her dog, he gets so excited every time we pull up to the house. Chris is very flexible, provides lots of updates, and is a pleasure to work with”
About: Ever since I remember, I was always surrounded by multiple pets, as my mom rescued many different animals. When I got old enough, I helped her caring for all the pets, and she taught me, how to be responsible while caring for animals. When I was 14, I started to pet sit for other people, and they were all very satisfied with the care their pet received. I am comfortable and confident around dogs of every size and breed, and cats. I have plenty of experience with dogs who require special care, including senior dogs, high energy dogs and anxious dogs. I am comfortable administering medication to cats and dogs. Caring for animals always brings me so much joy, and I hope to meet your furry child soon! :) I am a college student, who is currently on summer break and works part-time. If your pet needs company all the time, I can typically work around it! :) I am a responsible pet sitter, and have plenty of experience caring for animals in my house and also in the owners’ home. I have a fenced yard, and I go on multiple walks every day with my dog, Baldur. He is friendly with dogs and cats, but due to his age, he is not very playful anymore. However if your dog wants to play with other dogs, I often have other dogs I am pet sitting in my house, so it is likely, that your pet can meet new friends during their stay. There is also a dog park near to our house, where I am willing to take your dog if they require playtime with other dogs. If your dog is shy or more reserved, my house is big enough to provide a separated room to hang out! In our home, dogs are allowed on the furniture and bed, and most of the dogs I sit before slept with me on the bed! :) If I pet sit an animal in the client’s home, I always ensure to follow all the instructions the owner gives me about their home, and I always make sure that when I leave, the pet stays safe in their environment. I am familiar with pet CPR and First Aid, and my partner, who lives with me is pet CPR certified. When I go for longer walks with dogs, I always have water and a transportable bowl with me, so I can make sure, that your dog has always access to water, even during walks. We have air conditioning in the house, so if it is too hot outside, I can just chill with the dogs inside the house and make sure that they do not overheat.

“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!”
“Another excellent walk with Michael! He was right on time, and it genuinely makes my workday better knowing the dogs got to spend a full hour out on the trail with him. I’m very grateful to have someone reliable who I know is giving them such a great outing while I’m working. Highly recommend!”
About: Hi! I’m Sarah! I love animals and would love to help take care of yours. I’m efficient, organized and thorough. Please reach out for all your pet sitting needs! I’m available as needed throughout the day! Can check in during the work day as well depending on distance. Please let me know how I can help you I can treat your pet with the same care you do! I would love to meet your furry friends and help out where it is needed.
About: New to Rover but not new to caring for others pets. I am genuine and loving towards all animals and will take exceptional care of yours each day! Being with them brightens my day! Dogs and cats like to sit/sleep on me a lot as you can see by my pictures :) I like to think it’s because they feel safe and trust me. My almost 5 year old son, Joseph, might be with me depending on the time of day. If my son being with me concerns you for any reason, I completely understand! This is far from his first time and rest assured that I will be the one handling your pets 😊 He’s had a job himself walking and feeding the neighbors dog 2-3 times a week for over a year! He knows what to do, how to respect someone else’s home, and how to behave. I am new to this app but I have fostered/walked/taken care of my neighbors/friends dogs and cats for the last 10 years while they are not home or aren’t able to care for their pets. I have fostered many pets and although I prefer to watch your pet in your home as they're most comfortable in their own surroundings, once I've sat for you, I'd be happy to consider watching your baby/babies in my home if I feel it's a fit. I just got done fostering a friends cat for 6 months because she had found a safe home them! Hooray! So our home is pet free at the moment. 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. I have a very flexible schedule as I am a stay at home mom to a sweet 4 year old. Any time Monday-Friday I can make work with a little bit of notice in advance. I am genuine and loving towards all animals and will take exceptional care of yours each day! I’ve been a trusted sitter for families, and I understand how important it is to keep dogs and cats comfortable in their own environment. I’m attentive to routines, feeding schedules, and subtle behavior changes that can indicate stress or discomfort.
About: I am a devoted animal person. I have had dogs and cats my whole life, and am experienced with puppies as well as senior dogs. I currently work remotely and have a flexible schedule. I am available for dog walking weekdays and some weekends. Open to special requests and needs. My home has a large doggie door which opens to large fenced in yard. Dogs come in and out as they please. Lots of play toys and special attention.
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: My wife and I have taken care of many dogs throughout our lives as dogs bring us deep joy and satisfsction in life. Dogs I have taken care of are Yorkie, Chihuahuas, Westie, Shiba Inu mix, Labrador Retriever( hunting dog), Shih Tzus, Husky mix and more. My partner has taken care of a wide of variety dogs, cats, and other pets as well. Our love for dogs always want us to treat and care for them as best as possible. I currently have a Shih Tzu mix who I love like he is a family member and I hope I can bring that level of care to other dogs I have to care for. I have also taken care of senior dogs in the past. Taking care of people's dogs does not feel like a job to us, rather a joyful and fun experience for us both! I'm Pet First Aid/CPR certified through American Health Training. I understand the procedure on how to properly handle dogs from all sizes who are choking, poisoned, unresponsive, how to check vitals and perform CPR if necessary. The training gives me the best understanding and preparation on how to best handle a pet emergency. My wife is also knowledgeable of CPR/ Pet First Aid Care as I taught her what I learned from the course as we both find it really important to care not only for the pet's needs, but be best prepared for an pet emergency. Even with all the demands of life, we always give dogs under my care a lot of attention and have all their needs met! If I have to leave the house for whatever reason, my wife will give her attention to caring for the dogs as we love working as a team to care for our furry animals. If there are any dogs we care for that have separation anxiety issues, we can make sure to give that dog always has company! I live in a two story house with a small backyard that is fenced. I currently have a Shih Tzu mix who loves people and has gotten along well with other dogs in the same household. My dog is not one to try to make friends with other dogs as he does not like dogs coming up to him and in his space, but he can get along well with dogs of similar size or bigger dogs with time and has been in situations where he got along fine with mulitple dogs in a house. My house is spacious so there is plenty of room for the dogs to move about. We have multiple rooms and a dog gate where they can be comfortable if difficulties come up with getting along. I currently live with my wife and two parents as all three are dog lovers who are highly experienced with pet care, so in case I need to leave the house for errands or other needs, my wife can provide attention to the pet if need be as the pet can always have supervision. I will be home very often so I can take out the dog frequently and I live close to a park that's great for walking, and our neighborhood is very safe and plenty of places for walking. The dogs will always have access to fresh and clean water in the house. I will be very attentive to the pet's needs and be very sure they are well taken care of and comfortable under my care😊.
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. I am certified in fear-free training and utilize positive reinforcement only. I'm passionate about cooperative care and ethical handling no matter the circumstances. I understand that every pet is different and will learn how to make your best bud feel comfortable, safe, and loved.

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. You can expect clear and consistent communication if you trust me with your furry family member. I am happy to take your dog for multiple walks a day and accommodate special food or medication schedules. I am a respectful, clean, non-smoker, in my 30s. 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.

“Lauren and her husband were amazing! My husband and I boarded our 7 month old puppy, Cruz, while we were on a 10 day vacation. We were nervous to be away from him for such a long time. Our nerves were quickly relieved when we started receiving photos and videos of Cruz. We received a photo or video of Cruz everyday having so much fun with the other dogs! Cruz had a blast and loved being with Lauren and her husband. We have already booked Cruz’s next stay with Lauren :)”
“David was very easy to work with and responded quickly to our questions/ concerns. Our dogs had access to a few enclosed acres on the property which was great for the dogs...a beautiful setting as well. Our 3 dogs got along well with David's dogs and another visiting dog. Most important, I felt our dogs were in good hands with David.”
“Brandi is the absolute best! She is so attentive and loving, Huxley just smiles the whole time he’s there. She makes him feel right at home and treats him like her own. We absolutely love receiving the photos she frequently sends and even prints out for us to keep :) We are so grateful to Brandi and her loving family!!”
“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.”
“Angela took absolutely fabulous care of River while I was away! From chicken dinners, trips to the dog park for fetch, and even adventures downtown for pup cups. River was a happy dog and loved every minute with her. I would absolutely trust Angela again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for an amazing Rover sitter!”
“Excellent experience! Patricia and her family took extra great care of Teddy. We so appreciated them welcoming him in to their home. We would absolutely recommend her and use again if the need arises.”
“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 .”
“Deborah exceeded our expectations as a pet sitter for our boys! From the moment we entrusted our pups to her care, she went above and beyond to put our minds at ease. One of the highlights was the adorable videos and pictures Deborah sent throughout their stay. These updates were super cute and reassuring, allowing us to see firsthand how happy and well-cared-for our dogs were. As someone who tends to feel anxious about leaving my pets with a new sitter, I truly appreciated Deborah's attentiveness to detail. She took the time to address all the little things that mattered to us, which significantly helped alleviate my concerns. Her thoughtful communication made us feel completely comfortable with the arrangement. Deborah's dedication to our pups' comfort was evident in every aspect of their stay. She even welcomed them to sleep in her bed, showing just how much she treated them as part of her family. We're thrilled to have found such a caring and reliable pet sitter in Deborah. Her services were outstanding, and we're excited to use them again in the future.”

“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.”
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.
